Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

However, as I calmed down, the analgesic effect of the adrenaline gradually disappeared, and the waves of pain in my left arm became more and more intense.

The sharp, shattered bones rubbed against the flesh beneath, causing a mixture of pain, tingling, and numbness that made it impossible to discern what was happening.

Xi Heng held his breath to relieve the pain for a while, then used his strength to leap into the air, first carrying his blood-covered senior sister to the top of the main tent in the camp, and then continued to use his internal energy to fly away like a night swallow.

……

"Sister?"

Within minutes, Xi Heng noticed that as he ran, the body of his senior sister Hong Miao in his arms was becoming increasingly limp and weak, and her eyes seemed to be gradually becoming blurry.

She stopped and led her senior sister into the depths of the woods, where they leaned against a large tree.

"Hmm... don't worry about me, I just need to rest for a bit."

The other person's eyes were half-closed, as if they were about to faint.

Xi Heng narrowed his eyes and, using the towering flames rising from the distant city wall, carefully examined the various injuries on his senior sister's body.

The wounds on the shoulders, collarbone, arms, and legs are relatively shallow, and the bleeding has been barely stopped by the flow of blood and qi, while there are no injuries on the back...

The place with the greatest blood loss is...

She immediately squatted down, untied the red belt around the other person's waist, and opened the tight-fitting outer garment.

Only then did she realize that the other person's outer garment was almost soaked with blood, and not only was the surface wet, but the edges had also congealed into blood clots in the cold wind.

Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately pulled open the other person's clothes and saw a wound on the side of the waist that was still full of blood. She took out the Blood Spirit Stone from her money pouch and slashed it on the back of her hand.

He made a hand seal, chanted a spell, and placed his right palm on the scar on the other person's delicate skin.

As a faint, fluorescent red mist appeared between his fingers and seeped into the other person's skin, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the bleeding stop.

"Don't push yourself. You said you didn't need my help, but it's not like I can't cure you," Xi Heng complained.

“…I was wrong,” Hong Miao admitted in a soft voice.

It's probably due to lack of blood that's causing the confusion...

My senior sister's body has become weaker due to her injury, and her spirit has also become more timid.

"If you get injured like this again, don't try to tough it out on yourself."

"Junior sister, that's so nice."

Xi Heng didn't know how to respond, so he turned to look into the distance and changed the subject:

"The fires and war drums over Jinshi City are getting quieter, perhaps it's about to fall. Going to Jinshi City now probably won't lead to any doctors or pharmacies, and it's quite dangerous... Shall I take my senior sister to a small mountain village further away?"

"Ah."

My senior sister is now completely obedient to me, as if there's no need to ask for her opinion at all.

The girl loosened her fingers from her senior sister's waist and abdomen, re-tied the belt around her waist, and then took off her own tight-fitting outer garment and draped it over her senior sister.

"There's no need for that..." the senior sister waved her hand.

"I still have a little bit of energy and blood in my body to keep warm, but my senior sister has lost so much blood, so it would be better for her to keep warm more."

Xi Heng said:

"It would take at least an hour and a half to get to that small village from here using light footwork. If you catch a cold on the way, it will be even more troublesome."

"...I'll do whatever you say, Junior Sister." After stopping the bleeding, Senior Sister Hongmiao slowly stood up, leaning on a nearby tree. She looked dizzy and was completely unable to use her lightness skill.

“I carried my senior sister on my back.”

Xi Heng moved even closer, reaching out to hook the other person's arms around his shoulders and neck, letting the other person hug him from behind.

Since the bleeding stopped, my senior sister's whole body has become very soft.

She had never seen her senior sister so dazed and docile before, and while she was worried, a strange feeling also began to grow in her heart.

The soft, smooth skin pressed against her back also brought her a bit of warmth.

"Let's go," Xi Heng reminded him, urging him to walk slowly and not use his light-footed skills.

A faint "hmm" came from beside my ear, so soft it was like the buzzing of a mosquito.

The warm breath traveled to her ear, causing her sensitive earlobe to twitch and her face to tingle slightly.

"My left hand is not very stable, could you please squeeze your legs together a little tighter, senior sister?"

Xi Heng tried to grab with his weak left hand, but could only barely wrap his arms around his senior sister's legs without being able to exert any force. The pain from the broken bones inside his body was really uncomfortable.

Senior sister hummed in agreement again, and tightened her grip on Xi Heng's hips a little more.

Xi Heng inexplicably felt as if half of her body was enveloped in softness and warmth, as if her back was soaking in warm bath water... This feeling almost offset the discomfort caused by her broken left shoulder, but it still hurt a lot.

"Quickly apply some pain-relieving herbs later..."

Xi Heng sighed softly, wishing his arm hadn't been broken.

However, the current outcome of the assassination should be considered a good one.

If there were a rating system, it would probably be an A grade, right?

After the war, the girl pondered these insignificant matters, gradually quickened her pace, and then used her light-footed skill to lead her senior sister back to the small village at the foot of Medicine King Mountain.

As night fell, the girl's figure moved swiftly through the woods and hills.

The flames of war in front of Jinshi City in the distance gradually subsided, and the large patches of oil that were burning wildly on the ground were gradually cooled and extinguished by the snow falling from the sky.

Nowadays, there are few archer guards left on the city walls, and many commanders have been assassinated by warriors from Huangmei Mountain and traitors from Jinshi City.

A firework shot into the sky, and the city gate slowly opened.

Amidst the acrid smoke outside the city gates, countless soldiers surged in. Once the city gates were wide open, even the Grand Marshal of Tianliang could no longer restrain his increasingly frenzied subordinates during the battle.

Countless people rushed into the city, and the officials, soldiers, constables and constables dared not stop them. Upon hearing the sound of the city falling, they scattered as if they had planned it in advance.

Local thugs and ruffians were all thrown out, and they were openly attacked and robbed. Those who failed to escape were robbed by the bandits, and then they would suffer oppression from the Tianliang army.

The situation in the city became increasingly chaotic, with cries of people fleeing and screaming filling the air.

Tens of thousands of soldiers swarmed into the city, rushing in like ants to syrup. The chaos led to even greater chaos, and in a short time, all order collapsed.

Chapter 56, Keeping a Mistress in a Golden House

It was late at night, and snow was falling heavily.

Layers of dark clouds pressed high in the sky, and the moonlight finally managed to bypass them around midnight, bringing a brief, dim glow to the world.

No longer as pitch black as when the fighting had ended, Xi Heng's field of vision had finally expanded from five or ten meters to several tens of meters in the mountains and forests when he carried his extremely weak senior sister on his back and ran with his light-footed skills.

In this way, the speed can be increased even further.

The cold wind of the snowy night, along with large snowflakes, lashed against the two people's clothes and faces.

Senior Sister Hongmiao was wearing two layers of clothing, so she was relatively unharmed.

Xi Heng was only wearing a thin garment as an inner layer, and the cold wind hit his skin directly. Even though he still had half of his body's blood and qi protecting him from the cold, he couldn't help but feel a little cold.

While the front of her body was cold and freezing, the area behind her, where she was pressed against Senior Sister Hongmiao, was quite warm.

My back and soft front were pressed tightly together, and the temperature and scent were exchanged, making the area where we were touching even warmer.

However, the difference in temperature between the front and back made her really want to turn over, open her arms and hug her senior sister tightly, to absorb the warmth from the other's front.

However, my senior sister is still a patient, so we can't do that...

This small wish was kept deep in Xi Heng's heart.

Once my senior sister recovers, I'll give her a good hug.

While casually thinking about these unimportant things, the girl stepped on the thick snow and the solid rocks between the hills, heading down the mountain path in front of her. With a light step, she covered five or ten meters.

With light-footed skills, one can directly traverse mountains and ridges, unlike when riding a donkey cart which involves taking winding mountain roads. Traveling in a straight line is much faster.

In just over an hour, when Xi Heng still had two or three tenths of his vital energy left, he could already see the small village covered by a thick layer of snow at the front.

She immediately returned to her village hut, kicked open the door, and went inside to escape the wind and snow.

“We’re here, Senior Sister.” Xi Heng patted her with his right hand, which was supporting her thigh.

"Um……"

Hong Miao's voice was still muffled, as if she would fall asleep immediately if she wasn't watched for even a moment.

But the bleeding has already stopped, so even if she falls asleep, she shouldn't die, right?

Xi Heng silently thought to himself, approached his own bed, ignoring the stale smell emanating from the surroundings, lifted the several layers of thick quilts, placed the other person beside the bed, and then gently helped her lie down and covered her with the quilt.

Even after lying down on the bed, the senior sister was still reaching out, as if reluctant to part with the warmth of Xi Heng's body.

"Don't go..."

"I'm just going to the stove to light it. Senior sister, you should rest for a bit."

Xi Heng tucked the other man's arm, which was covered in blood clots, into the blankets, then turned around to find a flint and steel, picked up a handful of dry grass from under the bed, and stuffed it into the stove.

Seeing that there was no more wood next to the stove, he used his hidden strength to slap the table next to him, and the entire small wooden table was instantly smashed into countless pieces of wood of different sizes.

Xi Heng picked up some thin, long pieces of wood, placed them on the hay, and with one hand, he pinched two flints together, creating a bright, fleeting spark before lighting the hay.

Tiny flames appeared and gradually spread, scorching the small pieces of rotten wood piled on top of the hay.

With the heating source providing warmth, the room gradually became much brighter.

Xi Heng squatted down in front of the stove and warmed his hands by the fire. He then sat down on the bedside and touched his senior sister's forehead. She didn't have a fever.

Reaching down into the blankets to touch the injured body, one could easily sense that the other's limbs were cold and their veins were weak, clearly indicating excessive blood loss.

She called out "Senior Sister" again, unsure if the other person, in their current unconscious state, could hear her. She simply said:

"I'm going to the village pharmacy to get some wound powder and some blood-tonifying and body-strengthening herbs to make medicine... Senior sister, please stay here and rest quietly, and don't move around and aggravate your wound."

The other person seemed to nod, or perhaps shake their head; it was unclear whether they had actually heard or not.

Xi Heng patted the other person on the shoulder, gave one more reminder, and then got up and left the small room, immediately using his light footwork to head to the village's medicine hall.

This was just a small village, and the pharmacy wasn't too far away. She was familiar with the roads, and in just two or three minutes, she arrived at the closed doors of the pharmacy.

Xi Heng used his light-footed skill to leap several meters into the air and fly to the pavilion. The sound of his toes landing was very faint.

After climbing into the attic, there was no obstruction. He easily found the stairs, but instead of going downstairs, he went directly into a narrow room next to it that was locked with a brass lock.

Xi Heng drew his broken sword from his waist and lightly slashed. The red thread struck the lock, producing a small click, and broke in response.

Sheathed her sword, deftly removed the brass lock, and pushed open the door.

Because she had worked as a counter clerk in this pharmacy for more than two years in her second life, she knew the location of all the medicinal herbs stored in the pharmacy.

The small drawers on the first floor only contain ordinary herbs of common quality used by ordinary people. The truly valuable items are carefully stored in the storeroom on the second floor.

Xi Heng passed through the sixteen large cabinets behind the door, which were arranged like bookshelves, and went directly to the innermost iron cabinet. He broke the three copper locks in front of the cabinet and took out a century-old ginseng, which was the store's prized possession.

Immediately afterwards, he went to the side and pulled out the bottom of a wooden cabinet, stuffing it with a series of high-quality blood-tonifying herbs such as Codonopsis pilosula, Angelica sinensis, and Paeonia lactiflora.

She didn't stop until she had enough medicinal herbs in her arms to stew a large pot of vegetables.

After finding some medicinal powders and ointments to treat knife wounds and fractures, Xi Heng left the pharmacy warehouse, leaving it in a mess.

Before long, after traversing a path where heavy snow was falling, the girl, disregarding the cold, pushed open the door with a whoosh, clutching a pile of medicine in her arms.

Looking around, she saw that her senior sister was no longer on the bed, but squatting on the cold ground under the bed, sitting blankly like a duck, with her arms crossed and propped between her legs, her eyes gazing at the bright flames in the stove in front of her with a hazy and indistinct look.

The moonlight shone faintly through the paper window, casting a hazy, pale light behind her, while the warm glow of the fire in the stove shone in front of her.

Two colors of light fell upon one person, making her appear like a beautiful fairy or elf from a legend of the mortal world.

Hong Miao's ears twitched, and her blurry vision fell on Xi Heng again.

She gently opened her mouth, sticking out her pink tongue, her eyes filled with tenderness, yet also with a hint of resentment and reluctance.

A few seconds later, he said four words:

"do not leave me……"

"..." The girl who had just pushed the door open paused, and seeing her senior sister's posture, she was a little dazed.

She turned her attention back and clicked her tongue, saying, "Didn't you agree to stay in bed? You obviously didn't listen..."

"I don't want you to leave..."

Senior Sister Hongmiao rarely showed emotion, and said with her lips pursed, "If you leave, I... I can't take it."
