Chapter 178: CH 178

- April 13, 2022

Ru Ge closed his eyes, he could still see that bloody life or death fight, even though the guards he had brought along were experts, but they couldn't withstand being attacked over and over again, when he was forced to fall from the cliff there were still two loyal to the death guards with him.

He didn't expect the miasma in the grass at the bottom of the cliff would consume the last of their physical strength, the loyal guards could only protect him, putting the injured and losing conscious him in a cave, they however because they had been seriously injured and had breathed in too much miasma passed away.

Ru Ge moved his leg, when he had fallen from the cliff his leg had been injured by a sword, now at the miasma filled bottom of the cliff, his wounds wouldn't heal even after a long time to the extent it began to fester, in his current state it was difficult for him to even move a little, let alone walk out.

Ru Ge sighed softly, his dried lips had split open, he closed his eyes waiting for death to come.

In the darkness, the shouting became clearer and clearer, it wasn't a dream, Ji Ling Xue really had come to find him!

Ru Ge opened his eyes, a drop of tear streaked from the corner of his eye, the first time he experienced crying tears of joy. The darkness in his heart was instantly dispersed by that faint sunlight, he opened his mouth shouting loudly in response, his throat was sore, trembling he managed to issue a sound.

An Ge carrying Ji Ling Xue on his back said, "Mistress, don't shout, you're wearing a mask, your voice isn't clear, maybe he can't hear your shouts."

There wasn't a response after so long, there could be a reason, that person had already met his demise, but such disheartening words, An Ge didn't dare say them, there must be hope in life.

Ji Ling Xue patted An Ge's shoulder: "Let me down, I can walk myself here."

The footsteps had already turned very faint here, the ground was covered in rocks in front of them, footprints couldn't be left, it would be harder to look.

An Ge put Ji Ling Xue down, following behind her, he usually didn't speak much, only speaking when he had to.

Ji Ling Xue walked to the opening of the cave, it was very dark inside, she took out a fire starter from her bundle and lit it, she was about to walk into the cave when her arm was pulled on by An Ge, An Ge said not reassured: "Mistress, we still don't know if there are dangers inside, let this subordinate go in first, in case there is danger this subordinate can stand in front of mistress."

Ji Ling Xue's lips twitched, did he have to be so cautious, she wasn't made of glass, she wasn't going to break if she's touched?

"It's fine, I have poison powder, it's others who are in danger." Ji Ling Xue directly entered the cave after speaking, leaving An Ge in disarray, it was the first time he met a master who didn't need a guard to take the lead in the face of danger.

"Dadada..."

The sound of stones falling onto the floor was sharp and clear, Ji Ling Xue halted, the light from the fire couldn't illuminate the entire cave, even through the mask, the nauseating smell of rot could be detected in the cave.

Ji Ling Xue looked around the cave vigilantly, she could faintly see someone trying to sit up, their legging brushing against the stones made a strange sound.

"Who is here, is it you Ru Ge?" Ji Ling Xue tried to ask again.

"Yes...it's me..." A hoarse faint trembling voice came from the deepest part of the cave.

Ji Ling Xue's heart leapt, this was Ru Ge's voice, it was so weak and hoarse, what happened to him these past few days?

These thoughts only passed through her mind, Ji Ling Xue quickly moved forward with the torch, her foot met something, Ji Ling Xue stumbled, when she steadied herself and looked, the strange scene in front of her even stunned Ji Ling Xue who had seen death before, maggots wiggled across the face, looking at the clothes worn by the person, it was clearly Ru Ge's guard.

Ji Ling Xue's heart sank, his guard had become like this, then what about Ru Ge, how long has he been in this dark cave, was he injured, otherwise how could a tiny cliff trap him down here?

"Ru Ge..." Ji Ling Xue lifted the torch to look over, her pupils shrank...

In the dark cave, that torch lit up the head of white hair, Ji Ling Xue became silent.

An Ge walked to Ru Ge's side before Ji Ling Xue to check his injuries, shaking his head, he picked Ru Ge up, saying to Ji Ling Xue: "Mistress, let's leave then talk."

Ji Ling Xue nodded, she had wanted to ask the extent of Ru Ge's injuries but was stopped by his words, she led the way out.

An Ge who was carrying Ru Ge on his back wasn't restrained by anything, wind came from his feet, very soon he stepped out of the cave before Ji Ling Xue.

Ru Ge was blinded by the sunlight having not seen the sun in so long, he closed his eyes, JI Ling Xue who came out behind them felt her heart ache seeing Ru Ge's fluttering white hair like snow.

She still remembers when she first met Ru Ge, he also looked like a sorry figure who had met with misfortune, but after a bit of cleaning, his handsome face was seen, his head of black hair had now become white, such a change, who made him like this?

The hands hanging by Ji Ling Xue's sides tightened into fists.

An Ge turned to look at Ji Ling Xue: "Mistress, wait here, this subordinate will first carry him to the top of the cliff, then I'll come for mistress."

Ji Ling Xue shook her head: "We need to leave together, if something happens, at least we have each other." She didn't want something to happen to Ru Ge again.

An Ge thought about it, he felt Ji Ling Xue's words were reasonable.

Ru Ge turned to Ji Ling Xue, his dried lips twitched into a slight trace of a smile.

Facing Ru Ge's kind smile, Ji Ling Xue couldn't smile back no matter what, she wanted to ask a lot, but didn't know where to start, she looked over Ru Ge's body, then she asked: "Where are you hurt?"

Ru Ge said: "Leg..."

Ji Ling Xue said to An Ge: "Put him down first, treat the wound then leave."

They didn't know what would wait for them on their way back, it was most important to treat his injury.

An Ge found a level ground, putting Ru Ge down, the miasma outside the cave didn't seem as strong, besides Ru Ge had stayed here for so long yet was fine, it should be safe.

"Water!" Ru Ge used his all to spit out one word, maybe he had not spoken in so long and hadn't eaten, his voice sounded very rough and dry.

An Ge took the water pouch from his waist putting it at Ru Ge's lips, Ru Ge immediately drank over ten mouthful of water, the water slid down his dry and rough throat into his stomach, his heart warmed at the same time.

Ru Ge said: "Enough, thank you."

Ji Ling Xue crouched down beside Ru Ge's leg pulling up his trouser leg, her lips trembled seeing the black rotting flesh emitting a nauseating smell.

Ru Ge said: "Xue Er, don't look." He was really afraid he would scare his only sworn sister into not eating meat in the future.

An Ge said: "Mistress, let this subordinate bind his wound."

Ji Ling Xue solemnly said: "This rotting flesh can only be cut off before medicine can be applied, An Ge, you can't do such a meticulous work, let me." She took out the short blade from her waist as she spoke, the dazzling blade made Ji Ling Xue's eyes shine like stars.

An Ge and Ru Ge wordlessly looked at Ji Ling Xue.

Ru Ge: Sworn sister, seeing your posture holding the blade, you look like a chef cutting food, that's my leg, you should take it easy when cutting.

An Ge: Mistress, you haven't done this before, let this subordinate do it?

Under the doubtful gaze of the two men, Ji Ling Xue lowered her head and began to seriously cut the rotting flesh, with the first cut, Ru Ge hissed taking in a cold breath, he looked at Ji Ling Xue rather strangely.

Ji Ling Xue said: "Is it really painful, should I continue after putting on some numbing powder?"

Ru Ge shook his head: "No need." If you put on numbing powder, I would feel you're planning to roast my leg.

The image of Ji Ling Xue roasting meat floated into his mind, his lips couldn't help twitch.

An Ge opened Ji Ling Xue's bundle, finding a piece of pastry he stuffed it into Ru Ge's mouth, looking at him sympathetically, "Eat some pastries to pad out your stomach."

If it got too painful later, at least he'll have some strength to cry out.

A quarter of an hour later, Ji Ling Xue raised her sleeve to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead, there was a piece of rotting flesh by her foot, Ru Ge's leg had already been heavily bandaged.

Ru Ge said: "Xue Er, you didn't learn this from cooking right?"

Ji Ling Xue laughed, probably.

Tidying up a little, An Ge carried Ru Ge and walked back with Ji Ling Xue, standing underneath the cliff they looked up, they only saw a shadow of a knife flash by, the meters of rope fell to the ground like a python.

An Ge narrowed his eyes, there was someone at the top of the cliff! They had also cut off their only way up.

Ru Ge said: "It's Yuchi Gong Ru." Only he would have the patience to wait at the cliff edge to cut off their escape.

Ji Ling Xue's lips twitched, "Meeting that guy again, wasn't he put under house arrest by Dayan's emperor, how could he sneak out here?"

Ru Ge gave a bitter smile, house arrest couldn't contain Yuchi Gong Ru's wild schemes.

An Ge said: "Mistress, this subordinate will go up to deal with him."

Ji Ling Xue said: "You can't."

Yuchi Gong Ru was such a crafty person, Ru Ge couldn't even deal with him, if An Ge falls into a trap up there, wouldn't she and Ru Ge be buried here.

Ji Ling Xue had spoken, An Ge's figure flew up the cliff, this was the first time he didn't follow her orders.

Ru Ge stood leaning against the cliff with his head raised looking at the back of An Ge's flying figure, he said to Ji Ling Xue: "This is your secret guard, his light martial arts isn't bad!"

Ji Ling Xue's lips twitched, "He was very obedient before, now he's acting on his own initiatives a bit."

Ru Ge laughed, waving his hand at Ji Ling Xue, a trace of blood couldn't be seen on his cheeks, his face was as profound as water, very calm.

Ji Ling Xue walked towards Ru Ge seeing he leaned against the cliff for support to stand all this time, she asked: "Are you alright?"

Ru Ge shook his head, indicating she shouldn't worry about him.

The sound of swords clashing could be heard from the top of the cliff, the two people at the bottom of the cliff could only listen to the clashing as the fierce battle unfolded, Ji Ling Xue looked up, finding Ru Ge had told her to stand where a part of the cliff stuck out, even if someone threw a rock or weapon from above they would be avoided.

Ji Ling Xue tilted her head to look at Ru Ge's snow white hair asking: "What should we do now?"

Ru Ge said: "Think of a way to get up...I can carry you on my back..."

Ji Ling Xue shook her head, Ru Ge's leg was so badly injured, how could it bear the weight of two people.

Ru Ge firmly said: "I have light martial arts, we can give it a try."

Ji Ling Xue angrily said: "Do you not want your leg?"

Compared to your life, my legs mean nothing. Ru Ge didn't say these words aloud and didn't want to explain too much, he picked Ji Ling Xue up by the waist, using his uninjured leg to give a boost he flew towards the top of the cliff.
