Chapter 703

Feng Zhenyue checked Hua Yuxi's pulse, but was helpless, saying that this was a strange disease he had never seen before, and he did not dare to rashly inject his true energy into her body.

So Lan Qiao didn't wait any longer and left Feng Yeling to control the army for him. He picked up Hua Yuxi and left Crescent Moon Bay overnight, heading north.

In order to take care of the unconscious Hua Yuxi, he asked Bai Xueyin to go with him. After they had reached the sixth level of Qiankun Jue, their skills were already among the best in the world. Their Qinggong was fully deployed, and their speed was no less than that of ordinary horses.

Son, and can cross mountains and ridges without any hindrance.

By dawn the next day, they had left the mountainous area and walked dozens of miles to a lively small county called Jianping.

The morning market in the county town has not ended yet, and various vendors line up on both sides of a long street. The street is crowded with people, and people carrying baskets are everywhere. The vendors are shouting one after another, attracting a steady stream of customers.

The two of them ran for hundreds of miles in a row. Lan Qiao had the mental ability of Xu Jinshifang to convert the energy between heaven and earth into the internal energy, so he didn't feel tired at all. Although Bai Xueyin also had outstanding skills, she couldn't help but feel tired in one breath.

After running so far with Qinggong, I was still a little tired.

It was midsummer, the weather was hot, Bai Xueyin was dripping with sweat, and there were many fine beads of sweat on his face and forehead.

"Let's go to the market in front to have a rest first, and then rush on our way, trying to reach the capital before dark." Lan Qiao looked at Bai Xueyin and slowed down his pace.

"I can still walk. It's important to save people. Senior brother, don't worry about me." Bai Xueyin wiped his sweat with his sleeves. Unexpectedly, his sleeves were already soaked with sweat and could not be wiped clean at all.

"It's too hot. Let's take a rest for half an hour." Lan Qiao casually looked at the products sold nearby as he walked.

Bai Xueyin, as a beauty on the Allure Ranking list, naturally attracted countless eyes when she walked on the street like this. But when everyone saw that she was wearing a sword, she had an otherworldly heroic aura, and she was accompanied by a blue bridge.

After a quick glance, no one dared to really stare at her.

Lan Qiao knew that he was carrying the unconscious Hua Yuxi on his back and would cause unnecessary trouble if anyone recognized him. He pulled Bai Xueyin's clothes and walked with her out of the market to a quiet road in the county town.

By the river.

"It's cool by the river." Lan Qiao gently put Hua Yuxi down and let her lean against a weeping willow tree on the bank, while he sat casually on the slope by the river, stretching his body and legs.

Bai Xueyin adjusted her skirt and sat casually next to the Blue Bridge. Listening to the faint hustle and bustle of the market in the distance, accompanied by the sound of gurgling water, she felt a sense of tranquility in her heart.

"It's all your fault. You're so handsome that you attract attention on the street." Lan Qiao jokingly bumped into Bai Xueyin, "I'll punish you to guard the flowers here while I buy some food from the market."

"I'm not hungry." Bai Xueyin said while brushing her hair that was stuck to her face with sweat.

"You're not hungry, maybe Hua'er is?" Lan Qiao looked at Hua Yuxi and sighed, "I haven't eaten enough for so many days, and now I've fainted and can't eat. It's really worrying."

He was very confident about Bai Xueyin's martial arts. Seeing that she had no objections, he returned to the morning market.

I bought two pancakes first, thinking that Hua Yuxi might need liquid food, so I went to see if they sold porridge or soy milk.

Unfortunately, because the morning market was almost over when we arrived, the porridge and soy milk had been sold out, so Lan Qiao had no choice but to return to the river.

Bai Xueyin was wiping Hua Yuxi's body with cool river water. When Lan Qiao came back, she said, "Sister Hua's body is so hot. I'll wipe her with cold water."

Lan Qiao nodded: "I didn't find any liquid food such as porridge or soy milk. It seems that I have to fill myself up first and wait for the road ahead."

Then he handed a pancake to Bai Xueyin.

"With eggs."

Bai Xueyin said she wasn't hungry, but in the harsh conditions of Xianyue Bay and the fierce battles in the last few days, how could she really have no desire for food? At this time, a pancake is really more delicious than any jade plate.

It looks even more delicious.

When she saw Lan Qiao eating casually, she stopped caring and took a big bite.

The two of them ate pancakes intently without saying anything for a while. Halfway through the meal, they heard a shout coming from afar from the path along the river.

"Mung bean soup~freshly cooked mung bean soup~"

Lan Qiao's heart moved, and he immediately stood up and said, "I'll go over and take a look."

For Hua Yuxi, if she can drink a few mouthfuls of mung bean soup, it will not only relieve the heat, but also provide some energy for her weak body.

The man selling mung bean soup was an old man wearing a straw hat and a gray beard. He was carrying two large bamboo baskets, with a bucket of mung bean soup on one side and a stack of ocean bowls on the other.

Lan Qiao was eating pancakes and felt thirsty. Thinking that Bai Xueyin might want some too, he bought two bowls of mung bean soup and returned to the slope by the river.

"Here, you can drink some too."

"Thank you, senior brother."

Lan Qiao handed a bowl to Bai Xueyin, and then went to get Hua Yuxi. He first adjusted her to a suitable position, and then fed her little by little from the bowl.

However, the process was not smooth. Hua Yuxi seemed to be unable to really swallow, and all the soup she was fed flowed out.

Lan Qiao was afraid that she would choke and did not dare to force-feed her any more. He said helplessly: "No, it seems we can only wait until we see the doctor."

Bai Xueyin handed the half-eaten soup back to Lan Qiao: "Senior brother, drink some too."

Lan Qiao nodded, picked up the bowl and drank it all, then returned to the old man and returned the bowl to him.

The old man squatted down by the river to wash the dishes, and said casually with a smile: "Young master is so lucky, the two ladies are like fairies."

Lan Qiao smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer the call, when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and then his head began to feel dizzy, and his vision went black.

"You were drugged!" Lan Qiao grabbed the old man's wrist and prepared to draw his sword.

The old man was startled by him, and the bowl fell to the ground and broke into pieces. He kept shaking his other hand: "Sir, spare your life! I have been selling mung bean soup by this river for thirty years, and I have never..."

Lan Qiao put more force on his hands and clenched the old man's wrist tightly. The latter was immediately speechless and broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

But surprisingly, Lan Qiao did not detect any form of internal energy in the old man's body, just like ordinary people.

He had no time to care about the old man anymore, and walked back to the slope with empty steps. He saw Bai Xueyin lying on the ground holding her stomach, and he didn't know if he was still conscious.

"Junior sister..." Lan Qiao had just called out when he felt the sound of breaking wind suddenly coming from behind his head. He was dizzy at the moment and couldn't react in time. Before he could turn around to see who it was, he was hit hard by a palm knife.

It was cut on the back of the neck and fell down.

A woman in black stood coldly behind him, with a knife mark from her right eyebrow to the left side of her chin, which was shocking.

"Useless trash." The woman kicked Lan Qiao who fell to the ground and fainted, picked up Hua Yuxi who was leaning on the tree, and walked up the slope.

"Sir, you are so awesome. You put the medicine in the bucket of soup in advance. There is no one else on the way. If you don't sell it to them, who will you sell it to?" She walked into an inconspicuous courtyard with Hua Yuxi in her arms.

The originally cold expression immediately turned into the admiration and excitement of a little girl, "Ha, how wonderful!"
