We agreed that I would be married off to a short-lived general, but why is my husband so powerful?

"Let's go!" Yue Lingyuan reached out his hand upon hearing this.

Without the slightest hesitation, Wen Rushi placed her hand in his, and he lifted her onto the horse.

The two rode together on one horse.

Wen Rushi sat down in front of him.

Yue Lingyuan held the reins and pulled the person into his arms.

The two men were carried on a fine horse straight to Longmen Pass.

Only after leaving the pursuers far behind did the horse gradually slow down.

At this moment, the lonely moon hangs in the sky.

Yue Lingyuan smelled the familiar fragrance emanating from the person in his arms, and felt a dull ache in his heart.

Were you startled just now?

Wen Rushi found it a little strange. She hadn't been frightened on the battlefield, so how could she be frightened by this little scene tonight? "No."

Yue Lingyuan's voice was somewhat low. "That's good."

She hadn't had time to think much when she ran away, but now that the horse had slowed down, Wen Rushi felt the warmth of the other person's body pressed against her back and the aura enveloping her, and she felt somewhat uneasy.

"Why don't you put me down?" Wen Rushi moved her body.

"No." Yue Lingyuan's voice trembled slightly.

Wen Rushi did not notice anything unusual about the other party at this time.

"This horse is slow carrying two people, but don't worry, I can keep up," Wen Rushi explained.

Yue Lingyuan remained unmoved and advised in a low voice, "You need spiritual energy to fly, and spiritual energy is not easy to accumulate. You should save it if you can."

Wen Rushi really couldn't refute his reasoning.

Although she was a military doctor who usually saved people, she would naturally have to expend her spiritual energy to treat those with fatal injuries.

Once the spiritual energy in the dantian is depleted, it won't be able to recover in a short time.

Wen Rushi had no choice but to quietly move her body forward a little.

Yue Lingyuan noticed her subtle movements, and a hint of disappointment flashed across his face. However, he did nothing and pretended not to have noticed anything.

The two of them rode on horseback for a while, and before they knew it, Wen Rushi felt the person behind her getting closer and closer, until finally his body was pressed against her back.

"Yue Lingyuan, what's wrong?" Wen Rushi asked, turning around.

Unfortunately, it was too dark, and Wen Rushi couldn't see anything, only feeling the man's hot breath on her neck.

"I'm fine." Yue Lingyuan's voice was low, as if he was suppressing something.

Wen Rushi finally noticed that something was wrong with him. "What's wrong with you? Don't hide it from me."

Yue Lingyuan was silent for a moment, then said, "I've been shot by an arrow."

Hearing this, he was startled.

Why are you only telling me now?

The two of them galloping about on horseback just now, with such large movements, must have amplified their dominance.

"It's nothing." Yue Lingyuan's voice was already a little weak at this point.

"It's okay, but you're still leaning most of your body on me. Let go and put me down."

"No, I'll put you down after we enter Longmen Pass. Don't worry, I won't die." Yue Lingyuan held the reins tightly, keeping Wen Rushi in his arms, showing no intention of putting her down.

Wen Rushi dared not move, afraid that she might accidentally aggravate the other person's injury. "When were you shot with an arrow?"

"After we meet up."

Wen Rushi didn't know what to say.

At that time, she had just mounted her horse and was only focused on the road ahead, so she didn't notice what was behind her at all.

Unexpectedly, the pursuers behind them fired arrows at this moment.

"Can't you dodge?" Wen Ru took out a small medicine bottle from her bosom and poured out a small pill.

"have eaten."

This is a life-saving, rejuvenating pill.

Although Yue Lingyuan doesn't seem to be going to die anytime soon, Wen Rushi still fed him one just in case.

She held the pill to his lips, and Yue Lingyuan lowered his head and swallowed it.

His lips pressed against Wen Rushi's fingers, warm and slightly ticklish.

Wen Rushi's face flushed. "Why didn't you dodge just now?"

Yue Lingyuan was, after all, a Qi Refining cultivator, so dodging the arrow before it got close to him was no problem at all.

"Don't hide." Yue Lingyuan swallowed the pill and replied with only three words.

Wen Rushi understood what he meant.

She was in front.

If he had dodged, the arrow would have had a good chance of hitting her.

Wen Rushi laughed in anger, "You mean, you'd take an arrow for me?"

Yue Lingyuan did not answer, which was obviously an admission.

Wen Rushi couldn't help but pinch his thigh. "Those arrows couldn't hurt me at all. You're not allowed to do that again!"

"Okay, whatever you say." Yue Lingyuan's voice carried a hint of pleasure.

Hearing this, Wen Rushi immediately eliminated most of the awkwardness that had been building between the two of them over the past period.

After Wen Rushi finished, she realized what she had done and said somewhat embarrassedly:

"Why didn't you say anything earlier? If you had said something sooner, you could have taken your medicine sooner."

"I thought I could hold on, but I didn't expect you to find out anyway." Yue Lingyuan said helplessly, but after taking the medicine, his voice was finally not so weak.

"If you didn't put most of your body on me, would I have noticed?" Wen Rushi muttered.

Yue Lingyuan chuckled softly. "It's all my fault. I pressed down on Madam."

The voice, penetrating his chest, reached Wen Rushi's ears with an indescribable quality.

Even though it's already late autumn, Wen Rushi felt a bit hot at that moment.

This person was so serious before, but now that he's injured, he looks like this. Could it be that he's suffered a brain injury?

"Why are you standing so close when you can talk?"

Yue Lingyuan's voice lowered slightly: "I had an arrow stuck in my back, and I only didn't fall because of my wife."

Wen Rushi was worried that he would fall into a deep sleep at this time, so she kept talking to Yue Lingyuan.

Yue Lingyuan, on the other hand, cherished this night.

Seeing that Ru Shi was not as cold to him as usual, he shamelessly spoke to her.

The two talked all the way, and half an hour later, they finally arrived outside Longmen Pass.

Wen Ru dismounted and entered Longmen Pass using Yue Lingyuan's identity token.

After dismounting, Wen Rushi saw the arrows behind Yue Lingyuan.

The entire arrowhead was embedded in his body, and the wound was in the heart and lung area.

The injury is quite serious; if not treated properly, it could be fatal.

Upon entering the pass, Wen Rushi helped the man off his horse and had soldiers bring over a first-aid bed to treat his injuries on the spot.

Yue Lingyuan probably understood that his injuries were quite serious. Seeing that Wen Rushi's expression was not good, he did not say that he would wait until they got back to deal with it.

Wen Rushi's hands were very steady. After cutting open her clothes, she pulled the arrow out of her back in one swift motion.

However... after the arrow was pulled out, the flesh inside turned black.
