Reborn Shadow Queen: Jun Shao's favorite

Chapter 416 Enemy ([-])

She bent down to untie the rope on her ankle, and shouted excitedly to Gu Niannian: "Niannian, I succeeded, sit still, I'll go find you now!"

As Jiang Qiqi said, she got up, picked up the candlestick and walked towards Gu Niannian's side.

Gu Niannian was also a little happy when she heard her words. The lights in the distance got closer and closer with Jiang Qiqi's movement and finally stopped in front of her. Jiang Qiqi put the candlestick on the ground and knelt down to help her untie the ropes on her hands and feet.

Because of sitting for too long, Gu Niannian's hands and feet were numb. Jiang Qiqi stretched out her hand to help her up. Picking up the candlestick on the ground, she pulled Jiang Qiqi's wrist and walked forward.

Jiang Qiqi's wound was excruciatingly painful, and Gu Niannian's pull just happened to touch her again. The pain was so painful that she was about to burst into tears, and she shook off Gu Niannian's hand like a conditioned reflex: "It hurts."

Only then did Gu Niannian realize that he had touched her wound, and hurriedly turned around and asked with concern: "Qiqi, are you okay?"

Jiang Qiqi took a deep breath, and reached out to grab Gu Niannian's clothes: "I'm fine, I'll hold you, you go on, so we won't get separated."

She breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Jiang Qiqi's voice, and walked slowly along the wall. The candle in her hand flickered with her movements, and the faint light could only illuminate an area the size of a palm.

The two walked for a while, but found nothing. Gu Niannian stopped and shouted towards the place where he heard the voice just now: "Lin Xi, can you hear our voice? Make a noise and we will find you!" "

After her voice fell to the ground, the surroundings returned to silence again. Jiang Qiqi listened intently for a while and sighed: "There is no sound. If it is really Lin Xi, he probably has lost consciousness by now. We have to speed up."

"Yeah." Gu Niannian responded and continued walking for an unknown amount of time. Suddenly, her feet touched something soft, and her whole body froze for a moment.

Jiang Qiqi sensed something was wrong with her, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Niannian squatted down slowly holding the candlestick, using the light of the candle to illuminate the people on the ground, the first thing she saw was a large piece of dried blood, her heart sank, and her arms moved slowly to the side.

The faint light of the candle illuminated the person lying on the ground, Gu Niannian frowned, that person with closed eyes and pale face, who else could it be if it wasn't Lin Xi?

Jiang Qiqi obviously also saw Lin Xi's appearance, and reached out to pat her cheek lightly: "Lin Xi, Lin Xi, wake up!"

Lin Xi shook her head a few times with her movements, but there was no response. Jiang Qiqi was a little anxious, and looked up at Gu Niannian: "Niannian, what should we do now?"

Gu Niannian took a candle to shine on her wound, and saw that blood was still bleeding from under the gauze. She reached out and probed the tip of Lin Xi's nose, and found that her breath was extremely weak.

She handed the candlestick to Jiang Qiqi: "Qiqi, help me light it, and I'll bandage her wound first."

Jiang Qiqi nodded, and reached out to take the candlestick.

Gu Niannian gritted her teeth, reached out and took off her coat, twisted the two sleeves together and tied it to Lin Xi's wound. Lin Xi seemed to feel the pain, and she flicked and groaned.

She glanced at Lin Xi, and continued with her hands.

The part of Lin Xi's wound that was dehiscated was not big, but the bleeding continued. Gu Niannian helped her do simple measures to stop the bleeding. There was no anesthesia in this area, so the pain would be particularly sharp.

There was a fine layer of cold sweat on Lin Xi's forehead, and when Gu Niannian forcefully tied the clothes to her body, she opened her eyes with a cry of pain.

Gu Niannian was a little surprised, and reached out to help her wipe off her sweat: "Lin Xi, are you awake?"

Lin Xi's face was completely drained of blood, she looked at Gu Niannian and Jiang Qiqi with some doubts: "You...why are you here?"

"The two of us..." Jiang Qiqi and Gu Niannian looked at each other and smiled, "The two of us are here to find you."

Lin Xi frowned upon hearing this, cold sweat flowed down her cheeks, her lips were pale and scary: "Looking for me? How do you know I was brought here?"

Now Jiang Qiqi was a little confused: "Didn't you leave a note for us to come to the alley tavern to rescue you?"

"I...cough, I didn't! I came here as soon as I woke up, and I didn't have time to leave a note for you!" Lin Xi coughed a few times, struggling to sit up.

Gu Niannian helped her up and leaned against him, frowning tightly: "If you didn't leave that note, someone must have deliberately lured us here and used you as a bait."

"Bastard!" Jiang Qiqi cursed secretly, her eyes a little sullen: "How did they calculate so accurately, knowing that we will definitely come?"

Gu Niannian sighed: "Because they expected us to come to rescue Lin Xi."

Jiang Qiqi didn't speak any more when she heard the words, Lin Xi had a pale face: "Ahem... What's their purpose in bringing us here?"

Gu Niannian shook her head, looking at her helplessly: "So far, we don't even know who tied us up, so how can we guess what their purpose is."

None of the three of them spoke again, and their faces were a little dignified.

Lin Xi's wound was constantly hurting. She endured the severe pain without making any sound, but her consciousness became more and more blurred.

Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer and fell on Gu Niannian's body. Gu Niannian was taken aback and reached out to pat her cheek continuously: "Lin Xi, Lin Xi, wake up, you can't just fall asleep like this!"

Lin Xi's fingers moved, her eyelids opened a little, and she lost consciousness after glancing at Gu Niannian.

Gu Niannian was among the people who grabbed her in a hurry, she couldn't fall down in this situation, and once she fell down, she might not be able to get up again.

Her hands hurt a little, but Lin Xi still didn't respond at all, Jiang Qiqi reached out and took her hands away: "Nian Nian, forget it, she won't wake up."

As Jiang Qiqi said, she stretched out her hand and tried Lin Xi's forehead, and sure enough, the temperature was frighteningly hot.

"Because of excessive blood loss and untreated wound, she started to have a fever now. Our teacher taught this before." Jiang Qiqi said with worry in her eyes.

Looking at the boundless darkness around her, Gu Niannian resisted the urge to cry, stood up and looked at Jiang Qiqi.
