"Xueying!" Lin Jiaxing felt like he was screaming, but he didn't make a sound out of fear.

Crossbow arrows are different from feathered arrows. The latter is shot by human power, while the former relies on machinery. Therefore, the lethality of crossbow arrows is much greater than that of feathered arrows.

At such a close distance and at such a high speed, if it is shot on the body, it will be shot right through.

Lin Jiaxing's actions were faster than his brain. He flew up and threw Xue Ying to the ground. He tried to roll to avoid the crossbow arrow, but the crossbow arrow was too fast and hit him firmly in the back of the heart.

His small body was too thin, and the crossbow arrow passed through his body and pierced into Xue Ying's body.

"Ah!" Xue Ying cried out in pain, looking at Lin Jiaxing who was rapidly turning pale, his eyes widened in horror.

She had followed Shangguan Ruoli and had seen many fighting scenes. Of course she knew what was going on in this situation.

"What are you...why?"

Lin Jiaxing knew that he was 80% finished this time, and he felt the strength in his body quickly drain away. He smiled to himself, "Who knows? It's fate! Some people say that I will die sooner or later from a woman, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Xueying couldn't help but feel a little angry when she saw that he was still talkative at this time. However, her wound was also very painful, and her chest hurt terribly when she took a breath.

Lin Jiaxing's head dropped weakly, kissed her on the lips, and then fainted in her tibia.

"No! Wake up!" Xue Ying exclaimed, and fainted in a hurry.

Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli frowned when they saw the situation here.

Shangguan Ruoli was worried about Xue Ying, but he was also surprised that Lin Jiaxing used his body to block Xue Ying's arrow.

How could a man like Lin Jiaxing have true feelings for a woman? How could he risk his life to protect a woman?

Dongming Ziyu is worried about Lin Jiaxing. If he dies at this time, the more than 200,000 troops he left at the Nanyun border will be in chaos.

If another spy makes a fuss about his death, mutiny or even rebellion may occur.

The assassins were quickly dealt with, and Dongming Ziyu pulled Shangguan Ruoli over and ran over.

Lin Jiaxing's guards were panicked. They did not dare to move Lin Jiaxing for fear of disturbing the wound and accelerating the injury. Because the crossbow arrow pierced his chest, and the game was over accidentally.

So, now the two of them are still stacked one above the other.

One of Lin Jiaxing's guards said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the general is still angry, and the crossbow arrows are not poisonous."

Dongming Ziyu nodded, supported Shangguan Ruoli, and said in a deep voice: "Hurry and see if there is any hope!"

Shangguan Ruoli's stomach was a little bothered, so he half-knelt on the ground, checked the situation of the two of them, and frowned.

Lin Jiaxing's guard asked anxiously: "Queen Mother, how is the situation? Can you still be saved?"

Jingyang reminded: "Mother, there are barbs on the crossbow arrows."

This means that the arrow cannot be pulled out directly from Xueying's body. The surrounding skin and flesh must be cut to remove the arrow.

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Carry them to the boat first, be careful not to touch the wounds."

Dongming Ziyu waved his hand, and two guards came over carrying a stretcher.

Lin Jiaxing's four guards carefully lifted Lin Jiaxing and Xueying and placed them on stretchers.

Shangguan Ruoli ordered: "The crossbow arrows must be cut. Look on the dock to see if there are any larger pliers or scissors, the kind used by gardeners."

The shaft of the crossbow arrow is thicker than the feathered arrow and looks like a baby's arm. Fortunately, it is made of wood, otherwise it would be more troublesome.

There is a doctor on the ship and a medical room.

After carrying the two of them to the bed in the medical room, Shangguan Ruoli appointed four doctors as assistants, two from his own side and two from Lin Jiaxing's army.

In addition, two of Lin Jiaxing's personal bodyguards were left behind.

This made Lin Jiaxing's men, who were worried, breathe a little sigh of relief.

They were really worried that Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli would kill the donkey, take this opportunity to kill Lin Jiaxing, and then take control of their remaining army of more than 200,000.

Shangguan Ruoli did this to reassure them, and he was also worried that if Lin Jiaxing died, they would argue and rely on her.

Moreover, Lin Jiaxing's current situation is probably very dire, and there is little hope of survival.

Bai Qingqing gave enough medicine and equipment, but did not dare to take out some advanced instruments that use electricity and energy.

Surgery is inseparable from blood transfusion. Shangguan Ruoli took out blood type test strips and asked people to test their blood types first, and found a few people with the same blood type as Lin Jiaxing and Xueying.

The guard found two pairs of gardener's scissors by some unknown means.

Several people cooperated to slightly lift Lin Jiaxing's body and cut off the crossbow arrows first.

The guard's hand was strong enough and had internal strength, so he cut off the crossbow arrow without any effort.

This movement touched the wound, and Xue Ying woke up.

Shangguan Ruoli saw that she was in good condition, so he checked her wounds and found that the crossbow arrow was stuck in her ribs and did not damage her internal organs.

He handed her over to two military doctors to get the barbed arrowheads, and they were able to do it.

Shangguan Ruoli took two of Lin Jiaxing's army officers to retrieve the arrow for him. Only the arrow shaft was left, but it would be difficult because it penetrated the chest.

I drew some blood first to prepare. Heavy bleeding is certain, it depends on how severe the heart injury is.

When the broken arrow was removed, blood spurted out like a small fountain. Without tools to open the chest, the bleeding could only be stopped with silver needles and hemostatic drugs.

Fortunately, Bai Qingqing prepared enough blood type test strips, found many people with blood types matching Lin Jiaxing, and continuously gave him blood transfusions.

In the end, Lin Jiaxing's life was saved.

When Shangguan Ruoli came out of the medical room, his whole body was covered in blood, and the original appearance of his white coat could no longer be seen.

Dongming Ziyu hugged Shangguan Ruoli distressedly and asked, "Are you okay? Is the little guy making trouble?"

Shangguan Ruoli was indeed tired. She rested her head on his chest and felt at ease. "We are all fine. This child is a well-behaved child and is not noisy at all."

The curve of Dongming Ziyu's lips softened a lot, "How is Lin Jiaxing? Don't die at this time."

Shangguan Ruoli said: "My life has been saved for the time being, but it depends on his recovery. Who is the assassin?"

Dongming Ziyu said coldly: "Who else could he belong to? That white-eyed wolf from Lao Shi! Is there nothing you can do against Jing Yu, so he came to assassinate us?"

Shangguan Ruoli sneered, "It seems that His Highness the Tenth Prince is not honest in Dali Temple!"

Dongming Ziyu snorted coldly, "Take care of him when you go back!"

Shangguan Ruoli reminded: "Kill him! Only they can handle this kind of thing. Jing Yu should let him follow the path of a benevolent and wise king."

Dongming Ziyu chuckled, "You feel sorry for that boy."

"Of course, that's my son!" Shangguan Ruoli looked proud.

Dongming Ziyu was unconvinced, "How could you have given birth to such a capable son without your own efforts and seeds?"

Shangguan Ruoli punched his chest, "It's disgusting, there's nothing serious about it!"

"You are so lonely, can you still have children?" Dongming Ziyu laughed and carried her into the cabin.
