Chapter 106 The Three Princes of the Western Regions
Looking at the dead end in front of her, Shen Yiran's heart was filled with worry. She was concerned about the man in white and didn't know what his current condition was. They definitely couldn't stay here for too long, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.
Ren Jingzhi looked at Shen Yiran, who was full of anxiety, and after a little thought, he said firmly: "Ranran, don't worry, your husband will take you up."
Shen Yiran was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "How do we get up there?"
Ren Jingzhi did not answer, but quickly stretched out a hand and firmly held her slender waist.
The moment Ren Jingzhi hugged Shen Yiran, he tapped the ground with his toes and rushed up like an arrow. His figure was light and agile, and he kept jumping between the cliffs.
Each landing point was extremely precise, as if he knew every ridge and dent on the cliff.
Shen Yiran only felt the whistling of the wind in her ears and the scenery in front of her passed by quickly. She snuggled tightly in Ren Jingzhi's arms, feeling nervous and relieved.
What made her nervous was that the steep climbing path was terrifying, but what made her feel at ease was that with Ren Jingzhi by her side, she knew that she would be safe.
Ren Jingzhi's eyes were focused and determined, and he concentrated on finding the best climbing path. His arms were tightly around Shen Yiran, fearing that she would make the slightest mistake.
Sweat dripped from his forehead, but he didn't care at all and just kept climbing up.
Finally, after some hard work, they came to the place where Shen Yiran had fallen before. Ren Jingzhi gently put Shen Yiran down and breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Yiran looked at Ren Jingzhi with gratitude and admiration in her eyes. She knew that if it weren't for Ren Jingzhi's outstanding lightness skills and courage, they would never have been able to get here so smoothly.
At this moment, Shen Yiran suddenly heard a frightening and strange sound. She instantly realized that the bats had sensed their intrusion and were about to attack them.
Shen Yiran shouted in panic: "Run! The bats are coming!"
When Ren Jingzhi heard this, his expression changed and he followed Shen Yiran towards the cave entrance without hesitation.
They ran at full speed in the dim cave, and the rugged ground caused gravel and mud to splash under their feet from time to time.
Shen Yiran's heart was pounding and she was nervously paying attention to the movements behind her, fearing that the bats would catch up with her in an instant.
Ren Jingzhi held Shen Yiran's hand tightly, as if to pass on his strength to her. Their figures quickly shuttled through the dim cave, and the only sound in their ears was the whirring wind and their hurried footsteps.
The light in the cave gradually became brighter, and they knew that the cave entrance was not far away. Then, the strange noises behind them became weaker, as if the bats were afraid of the light and had stopped chasing.
Shen Yiran's heart was relieved a little. However, at this moment, she felt exhausted and could not run anymore. Her legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and every step she took seemed to use up all her strength.
She slowly stopped, her chest heaving violently, breathing heavily, and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, sparkling in the dim light.
Her face looked extremely tired due to the intense running, and her originally fair face was now stained with a faint blush.
Her lips trembled slightly, and she spoke weakly, "No, I really can't run anymore."
Shen Yiran supported her knees with her hands and tried to regulate her breathing, trying to calm her pounding heart.
Ren Jingzhi saw this, and his heart was filled with pity. He hurried forward, gently supported Shen Yiran, and said softly: "Okay, Ranran, let's rest here for a while."
After that, he looked around vigilantly to prevent any more danger from approaching. Ren Jingzhi frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his eyes. He knew that the situation was still not optimistic, but looking at Shen Yiran's exhausted appearance, he really couldn't bear to urge her.
He stood silently beside Shen Yiran, using his body to shield her from possible risks, hoping that she could recover some strength as soon as possible so that she could continue moving forward.
After a while, Shen Yiran felt the fatigue in her body gradually subside, and she was no longer as tired as before. Her breathing also returned to a normal rhythm, no longer rapid and disordered.
She raised her eyes to look at Ren Jingzhi and said softly, "Husband, I'm fine now. Let's continue on our way."
Ren Jingzhi looked at Shen Yiran, his eyes full of relief and care. He nodded slightly and said softly, "Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell your husband."
The two continued to move forward steadily towards the cave entrance. The road under their feet was much smoother than before, and their steps became lighter. Not long after, they came to where the man in white was lying.
Shen Yiran quickly stepped forward, squatted down, reached out and gently touched the forehead of the man in white, carefully feeling his body temperature. After confirming that the man in white did not have a fever, she felt relieved.
Then, Shen Yiran took out the precious red thorn spiritual herb from his arms, placed it on a relatively flat stone beside him, and began to mash it carefully. The juice of the spiritual herb gradually seeped out, emitting a faint fragrance.
After Shen Yiran finished pounding the spiritual herbs, she looked up and said to Ren Jingzhi, "Husband, come over and help me remove the gauze on his abdomen."
Ren Jingzhi immediately stepped forward upon hearing this. His movements were gentle and skillful, and he carefully untied the gauze on the white-clothed man's abdomen. The moment the gauze was removed, the shocking wound appeared before their eyes again.
Without any hesitation, Shen Yiran quickly applied the crushed spiritual herbs to the wound of the man in white. Her eyes were focused and serious, as if she was carrying out an extremely sacred mission.
Ren Jingzhi watched over her silently, his eyes full of admiration and support for her, and his mind flashed back to the days when he quelled the rebellion at the border.
Once, Ren Jingzhi was suddenly attacked by the Western Regions army and was seriously injured. Fortunately, Bai Yuchuan saved him at the critical moment.
Afterwards, he learned that the man who saved him, Bai Yuchuan, was actually the third prince of the Western Region. In order to avoid being persecuted by his other brothers, Bai Yuchuan wandered outside for many years and lived a peaceful life.
He had a bold and cheerful personality, and later became sworn brothers with Ren Jingzhi. It had been almost three years since they parted. Ren Jingzhi felt a little lost, and he slowly raised his head and looked into the distance.
But when his eyes accidentally swept across the face of the man in white on the ground, he widened his eyes in disbelief, and in shock, he couldn't help but screamed: "Little brother? How is this possible!"
Then, he squatted down hurriedly, looked at it carefully again, and muttered to himself: "Yes, it's really my younger brother. But why is he with Ranran? Why is he injured?"
Shen Yiran had just helped the man in white to apply medicine and bandage his wound, but she was startled by Ren Jingzhi's scream. She asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Husband, do you know this person?" Her eyes were full of curiosity and confusion, and she moved back and forth between Ren Jingzhi and the man in white.
