On the other side, until dark, Chu Xuanchen and his men continued to search downstream of the cliff with torches.
They had searched the upper reaches of the cliff several times but could not find anyone at all, so he had to put his hope in the lower reaches.
Everyone thought that Yun Ruoyue and King Xian were washed downstream, so Xuance's army dispersed to the lower reaches of Jiajiang River and continued to search along the river.
Moli saw that Chu Xuanchen was still looking for something even though he could no longer hold on anymore. He walked towards him anxiously and distressedly, "My lord, you just soaked in the cold pool for a long time. I think your body can't hold it anymore."
.
Why don't you take a rest first and let me take the brothers to find you?"
"No, I cannot rest.
If the king takes a rest, the princess will be in more danger.
Besides, what happened to Paopao Hantan?
This king can still hold on!"
Chu Xuanchen's face was pale and his lips were bloodless.
"But my lord, the water in the cold pool was so cold and biting that after taking a dip in it, Liu Ruyan contracted the cold and collapsed.
You were looking for the princess in there just now. You have been soaking in the water for so long, and you haven't gotten enough rice or water for another day. You are still so exhausted that even if your body is made of iron, you can't hold it in.
Only when you have a good rest will you have the strength to find the princess."
Moli said heartbroken.
"Moli, needless to say! I know my body myself.
We survived the war, so this is nothing! Come on, let’s go down there and take a look.”
As Chu Xuanchen said that, he lit a torch and continued walking down the mountain.
Seeing Chu Xuanchen's stubborn look, Moli couldn't resist him and had to follow him to continue searching.
.
In the cave, Yun Ruoyue's alternation of hot and cold was even more severe.
Her body was obviously very hot, but she felt very cold, even colder than before.
Her body was shivering violently, and she was vaguely shouting that she was cold.
Seeing this, Xian Wang quickly walked over and hugged her, "Xiaoyue, you have a high fever, do you have any medicine on you?
Wake up quickly and take the medicine, okay?"
"Medicine...I have medicine, please wait a moment..." Yun Ruoyue finally opened her eyes and pointed at the cloth bag and said, "I have antipyretic medicine in my bag. Please help me find it. It's a pink bottle.
medicine……"
"Is it this bottle?"
The wise king quickly opened her cloth bag and found a bottle of pink medicine inside.
Yun Ruoyue looked at it and nodded quickly, "That's it."
"Okay, come on, I'll feed you some."
The Xian Wang said, struggling to help Yun Ruoyue up, then opened the medicine and brought it to her lips.
The antipyretic medicine looked very strange, different from what other doctors prescribed, but he had no time to be curious.
After he quickly gave Yun Ruoyue the medicine, he put her on the hay and lay down again, "Xiaoyue, take a rest quickly. If you want to get better soon, I will stay with you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty... It's late at night, and I'm tired of you taking care of me. You should take a rest."
Yun Ruoyue said weakly.
The wise king shook his head, "It's okay, I'll watch over you, you can sleep peacefully."
As he spoke, he covered her with his outer clothes. Fortunately, her own clothes had been dried by the fire, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't dare to sleep at this time because he was afraid that after falling asleep, snakes, insects, rats, ants, etc. would come and bite Yun Ruoyue.
Soon, Yun Ruoyue fell asleep.
She slept in a daze all night, and the wise king also stayed by her side all night.
Yun Ruoyue woke up at dawn the next day.
When she woke up, she found that the wise king was dozing off against the mountain wall. There was some stubble on his chin and he looked very haggard, probably because he had taken care of her all night.
