Chapter 68 Heartbeat
The cliff valley was not very big. The two walked forward for a while and found many bones along the way. They should be the people who fell off the cliff and died. There were so many bones and the souls of the wronged made the valley particularly gloomy.

Su Qingwan and Lu Jing both felt unwell. They walked around the valley for an incense stick of time and found a small pond. Near the pond there was a cave that could shelter them from wind and rain.

There is also a skeleton in the cave. It should be the person who fell off the cliff. Fortunately, he survived and discovered the cave. He took shelter here temporarily, but finally died in the cave for some unknown reason.

Su Qingwan's face was pale as a bloodless corpse. Upon seeing this, Lu Jing carried the bones out of the cave and found a low-lying place to bury them, thus collecting his remains.

While Lu Jing was collecting the corpses with great pain, Su Qingwan found some hay and firewood nearby and carried them back to the cave.

There was a plant at the foot of the valley, which Su Qingwan could not name. Its leaves were larger than lotus leaves. Su Qingwan cut the branches with a dagger, rolled up the leaves, collected some water from the pond and brought it back to the cave.

Lu Jing cleaned up the corpse and cleaned the embroidered spring knife by the pond. The blood on the blade faded in the dim light, and it glowed with a cold light like snow. The two of them occupied the left and right sides of the pond, not interfering with each other. As if noticing Su Qingwan's gaze, Lu Jing suddenly raised his head and looked over.

Su Qingwan was too busy to dodge and her eyes met his in mid-air.

She was startled and lowered her head to avoid it.

Lu Jing wiped the blade silently, stroked the deformed part, and looked deep.

Raindrops as big as beans fell into the puddle, splashing water.

The rainstorm is coming.

The two entered the cave in the pouring rain.

Su Qingwan spread the hay on the ground, leaned against the stone wall and closed her eyes to rest. The matches were piled aside. Lu Jing endured the pain in his waist, gathered the firewood together, took out the tinder and lit it. The cold cave became warm.

The rainstorm rolled in with thunder, and the cave was separated into two worlds by a curtain of water.

The two of them never said a word to each other, each doing their own thing without interfering with each other.

Su Qingwan left some hay for him, but Lu Jing didn't care and simply spread it out and sat down. The wound on his waist needed medicine. He was the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei and was often seen fighting outside, so he always carried medicine on him.

Gold wound medicine is a must-have. This medicine is specially used to treat sword wounds, stop bleeding, relieve pain, and heal wounds quickly.

He looked at Su Qingwan and saw that she was resting with her eyes closed. She seemed extremely tired. They had been running all night and were very tired. Her breathing was shallow and she seemed to be falling asleep.

Lu Jing put the Embroidered Spring Sword aside, untied his belt, and took off his robe, revealing his muscular upper body.

In addition to the bloody scratches on his arms caused by the rock walls and branches, there were large bruises on his back from falling on the tree trunk. Fortunately, there was no bleeding. The most serious wound was the wound caused by the sharp stones that pierced him when Su Qingwan threw him to the ground.

The blood is flowing!
He endured the pain and wiped the blood with a silk cloth. The wound was in a very awkward location, on the left side of his lower back. He couldn't see the wound and could only simply feel it to get a rough idea of ​​the situation. It was also difficult to apply medicine.

They are uncle and aunt, a family. Theoretically, there is no need to worry too much about asking the sister-in-law to help apply the medicine.

But his relationship with his sister-in-law was indeed complicated. He had offended her, watched coldly as she was surrounded and killed by men in black, and tonight he had been overly intimate with her several times.

Lu Jing...actually felt a little guilty.

He didn't dare to call Su Qingwan for help.

Gold wound medicine is precious and there is not much left. If the medicine cannot be applied accurately and his wound is allowed to bleed and fester, it will aggravate the injury and have serious consequences.

Lu Jing was torn between his conscience and his desires.

"Do you need help?" Su Qingwan asked.

Lu Jing was startled, and his eyes met Su Qingwan's indifferent gaze. She had woken up at some point and was looking at him calmly, which was a stepping stone for Lu Jing.

"want!"

There is no need to risk serious injury for a little false courtesy. It is enough for him to feel at peace with himself.

Su Qingwan stood up and walked behind him. Lu Jing's robe was dragged to his waist, and his upper body was completely exposed. Perhaps because he had not seen the sunlight for many years, his skin was extremely white.

There were many ugly scars on his back and chest, which looked like they were caused by knives and axes, and should have been caused by the battlefield in the northern border in his early years.

Su Qingwan couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, and also had some... other emotions.

She was used to such injuries.

When she was in the Huainan Palace in her early years, her father and brothers all had such scars on their bodies. Her brothers were all handsome and strong, but they had all kinds of scars on their bodies.

Her eldest brother was once seriously injured and returned to the palace for recuperation. She had seen the fatal scar on his body, which almost went through his chest and the scar was difficult to remove.

Su Qingwan turned around and took the water she had collected, washed the silk cloth slightly, and wiped the blood around his wound.

Lu Jing felt pain, his body tensed, and his muscle lines became clearer. He had practiced martial arts for many years, and his muscles were evenly covered on his upright frame, carving out a handsome and beautiful body.

The shoulders are broad, the arms are long and the waist is narrow. Su Qingwan thought to herself as she wiped the blood, as if she could put both her hands together.

Su Qingwan, "..."

What was she thinking?
After all, she was an unmarried girl and seldom saw a man's naked body. Although she had treated injuries before, she was just an ordinary doctor. But after all, she was Lu Jing...

There was not much medicine left, so Su Qingwan cleaned up the blood and applied all the medicine on his wound.

Lu Jing said, "Sister-in-law also has scars on her body, leave some medicine for her."

"This little medicine is not enough for you!" Su Qingwan said lightly. After all, the injury was caused by her. Lu Jing never blamed her, so Su Qingwan could only clean up the mess.

Perhaps due to excessive bleeding, Lu Jing's lips were pale and bloodless.

Su Qingwan was a little annoyed that she had been too harsh.

She admitted that she was somewhat angry.

The two of them escaped death, but Lu Jing still wanted to test her. She had difficulty walking with him on her back. After realizing that Lu Jing was pretending to be dead, she was so angry that she wanted to kick him.

After applying the powder, Su Qingwan took out a roll of fine cloth from the medicine bag and bandaged it. Because of the wrapping, she inevitably had physical contact with Lu Jing.

The more careful and cautious you are, the less open you appear.

Whether it is Su Qingwan or Lu Jing.

When her fingertips accidentally brushed his shoulder, Lu Jing was slightly startled, his body tensed up, his muscles bulged, veins on his neck bulged due to excessive forbearance, his body was burning hot, revealing a sense of vigorous power.

Outside the cave, thunder rumbled.

The match burned and the fire grew bigger, covering up each other's breathing and heartbeats.

Su Qingwan wrapped it several times and finally bandaged it.

She breathed a sigh of relief and accidentally noticed the veins on Lu Jing's clenched fists that were bulging from squeezing too hard.

Su Qingwan blushed for some reason and looked away.

She went back to her haystack and sat down.

Lu Jing gathered his clothes and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

"You're welcome, Third Brother."

Su Qingwan thought that Lu Jing was not dead, it was God's will, and it would not harm her. After this round, Lu Jing would no longer be suspicious of her, and she would also use Lu Jing to investigate Li Xueying and Anping Marquis's Mansion.
