Chapter 199: Reversal of Fate
"Phantom Guard, that direction." Nishang pointed her hand, and the Phantom Guard quickly chased in the direction where the arrow came from.
Mu Xiaoqiao felt as if her soul had gone out. She did not feel any pain at all when she fell off the horse. She just threw herself to Ruan Haoyu and frantically helped him wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, but the more she wiped, the more blood there was.
"Don't vomit anymore, Ayu, don't vomit blood anymore, get up and don't scare me." Tears streamed down Mu Xiaoqiao's face, and she didn't know how to wipe them away. Instead, Ruan Haoyu stretched out his hand with difficulty, wanting to wipe her tears, but failed after several attempts.
Nishang stepped forward to pull Mu Xiaoqiao and advised, "Commander, you get up first and let Murong detoxify the young master first."
"Yes, detoxify, detoxify first." Mu Xiaoqiao looked at Ruan Haoyu's lips that had turned purple. She was already in a state of panic. At this time, she just mechanically repeated Nichang's words and obediently took two steps back with the help of Nichang.
Murong Xuan squatted down and stuffed a pill into Ruan Haoyu's mouth first, then she pressed two major acupoints on his chest with swift movements. Ruan Haoyu's coughing up blood finally slowed down. Murong Xuan slowly turned over his body and immediately frowned.
The small arrow on Ruan Haoyu's back was deeply embedded in his body. Judging from the angle of entry, his lungs had probably been punctured, and the hope of saving him was very slim.
She raised her head and shook her head gently at Nichang. Nichang's heart sank. She held Mu Xiaoqiao's hand tightly and said softly, "Commander, Murong said that we need to send the young master back to the villa for treatment. Your injury also needs to be treated quickly. Let's go back to the villa first."
Mu Xiaoqiao was already in a state of panic at the moment. As long as she heard that it would be beneficial to Ruan Haoyu, she would agree without hesitation. Her eyes never left Ruan Haoyu, even though he had fainted at this moment.
Murong Xuan immediately ordered people to carefully lift Ruan Haoyu and put him into the carriage. Nishang also helped Mu Xiaoqiao onto the carriage, let Ruan Haoyu lie on his side in Mu Xiaoqiao's arms, and then drove the carriage quickly towards the villa.
Murong Xuan had already used her Qinggong skills to return to the villa and arrange for the doctor to make preparations.
When they returned to the villa, as soon as the Phantom Guards carried Ruan Haoyu out, Concubine Rou rushed over and cried, "Yu'er, my Yu'er, how are you?"
Murong Xuan stepped forward and pulled Concubine Rou away, and advised: "Madam, let the young master receive treatment immediately. His injury cannot be delayed any longer."
Concubine Rou was pulled away, crying uncontrollably, watching Ruan Haoyu being carried in, and then Mu Xiaoqiao being helped out by Nishang. Her expression immediately became extremely resentful, and she rushed over to beat him, crying as she beat him: "Mu Xiaoqiao, you jinx, why didn't you die? Why can't I kill you, and you have to implicate my Yu'er? Why don't you just die..."
"Madam, Madam, calm down..." Murong Xuan could hardly hold back Concubine Rou. Although Concubine Rou did not know martial arts, she was extremely strong when she went crazy. Mu Xiaoqiao and Nishang were pushed by her and could not stand steadily. They fell back into the carriage. Nishang hurried to support Mu Xiaoqiao, and the scene was in chaos for a while.
Seeing that Concubine Rou was about to pounce on him, Murong Xuan had no choice but to hit her on the back of the head with a knife. Concubine Rou's voice stopped abruptly and her body went limp. Murong Xuan supported her and said to Nishang, "I'll take the lady back first. You take good care of the commander."
Nishang agreed and helped Mu Xiaoqiao up again. After such a long time, Mu Xiaoqiao's mind had gradually become clear again. She thought that if Ruan Haoyu still died to save her in this time and space, although they could return to the modern world, the ending would be very unfavorable for them in their last life. So after the initial shock, Mu Xiaoqiao gradually regained her sanity and began to think about the whole thing.
But Nichang didn't know. Seeing that Mu Xiaoqiao hadn't spoken, she thought that she would not be able to recover from the huge blow, so she carefully helped her out of the carriage, sat on the armchair that the servants had temporarily brought out, and asked several people to carry her in.
After all this trouble, the sky gradually darkened, and a large full moon climbed up the branches. Mu Xiaoqiao looked up at the moon, reached out to touch the dragon painting in his arms, thought for a moment, and said, "Send me to the young master."
Nishang hesitated and said, "Commander, the doctor is still trying to save the young master. You should treat your leg injury first, right?"
In fact, she was afraid that Ruan Haoyu was seriously injured. If the young master really died in front of the commander, she was afraid that the commander would also encounter an accident.
Mu Xiaoqiao smiled at Nichang soothingly and said, "I'm fine. Take me to the young master. I want to accompany him. Don't worry, the young master will be fine."
Nichang was still hesitant. How could the young master be fine with that injury? But she always listened to Mu Xiaoqiao, and she couldn't persuade her, so she had to let the servants carry her to Ruan Haoyu's room.
The doctor was treating Ruan Haoyu's injuries. Ruan Haoyu's injuries were very difficult to treat, mainly because the small arrow was completely embedded in the flesh. If he wanted to remove it, he had to cut the skin around the wound, but this would aggravate his injuries again. Moreover, if he removed it, his lungs would surely bleed again. If the bleeding could not be stopped in time, his life would be in danger.
At this moment, three or four doctors were discussing fiercely, but they could not come up with a good plan.
Mu Xiaoqiao listened at the door for a while, signaled the servants to carry her in, and then said, "All of you go out."
The doctors' discussion came to an abrupt halt, and they looked at each other. Nishang was also startled and said anxiously, "Commander, we dare not delay the treatment of the young master's injury. We cannot let the doctors leave."
Mu Xiaoqiao said calmly: "Have they come up with a solution?"
"This..." Nishang winked at the doctors, indicating that they should speak, but the doctors had not yet discussed a plan, so no one dared to speak.
Mu Xiaoqiao patted Nichang's hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid. I have something to say to you, Master. You take the doctors outside to discuss first. I will let them in when we have a plan."
Nichang had no choice but to agree and waved her hand for the doctors to leave.
Seeing the door was closed, Mu Xiaoqiao's gaze returned to Ruan Haoyu who was lying on the bed. He was injured on his back and could only lie on his side. Although the bleeding had stopped, his face was very pale due to excessive blood loss. He had not had time to clean the blood on his body, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
Mu Xiaoqiao reached out and slowly wiped the blood off his face, smiling, "Look at you, a great actor, but you're so dirty, it must be very uncomfortable. Don't worry, you'll be fine soon and it won't hurt. You've saved me so many times, this time, I can finally save you once."
She slowly took his hand and laid it flat on the bed. A colorful halo was faintly flowing above the Liuguang Ring. Mu Xiaoqiao took out a dagger, grasped the blade in one hand, and pulled it hard. Blood dripped down her clenched fist and dripped onto the Liuguang Ring. The Liuguang Ring emitted a colorful light and absorbed all the blood drop by drop.
The blood slowly coagulated. Mu Xiaoqiao cut her again. Her face had turned visibly pale and her strength was rapidly disappearing. But on the other hand, Ruan Haoyu's face became more and more rosy. The small arrow on his back was miraculously pushed out slowly, little by little, until it had no support anymore and fell on the bed. The wound on his back also disappeared.
Mu Xiaoqiao was already lying weakly on the bed. She had seen Ruan Haoyu saving her in her dreams before. She knew that this method of rescue would cause great harm to the rescuer, so she was mentally prepared. She just didn't expect the damage to be so great, almost as if her body was hollowed out. However, she still forced herself to feel Ruan Haoyu's pulse. The pulse was steady, strong and powerful, and there was no problem at all.
In this way, she could feel at ease. A smile appeared on her face, and Mu Xiaoqiao fainted with peace of mind.
In the distance, in the capital of Sui State, Muze City, in the residence of General Feihu, the Imperial Master Jing Lao looked at the full moon in the sky and murmured, "They finally lived up to our trust and reversed their fate this time. It seems that it is finally time to go back."
Old Jing stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction, smiling as he watched a red light rising into the sky in the distance, heading straight for the bright moon. The love, hatred, and vengeance of this time and space, resolved or not, had nothing to do with them anymore. They would eventually return to their own tracks and continue their own stories...
