Chapter 720: Drowning at First Glance

n the ground."Qian Ting Xuan!"At first glance, Xiao Yuge's nose actually soured, and she even had a sudden urge to cry!>"Little song don't be afraid, I'm here!" Qian TingXuan hooked a hand, pulling he...Long Yuan ordered a feast to reward all the brothers. After years of humiliation, they had finally avenged themselves. Everyone was singing and dancing, drinking happily, but Long Yuan, as the young chieftain, didn't seem to be happy. He quietly walked aside and stared blankly at the distant mountains.

"Having won the battle, young chieftain doesn't seem very happy" Xiao Yuge came to his side and handed him a cup of wine.

“Thank you!” Long Yuan reached out to take it, his eyes filled with gratitude: “Princess, if it weren't for you this time, the Yulong Village would no longer exist. You saved everyone in Yulong Village. You are our benefactor. From now on, whatever you command, as long as I, Long Yuan, can do it, even if it means giving my life and soul, I am willing!”

Xiao Yuge laughed, her cheeks flushed with the wine, making her even more charming and beautiful. Even Long Yuan on the side was stunned. When he first saw her, he thought she was beautiful, a beauty that made it hard to look directly at her. It wasn't until now that he realized she was breathtakingly beautiful. Her bright and radiant smile, once seen, could be unforgettable, making one feel like they would do anything for her, just to earn a smile from her.

It was the prime of his youth, a time when he had never given women a second thought. Yet now, because of her, he was utterly disarrayed. He seemed to understand why those foolish emperors in plays would lose their kingdoms for beautiful women. If it were him, he wouldn't be able to escape either!

"Young Master..." Seeing him staring at her without speaking, Xiao Yuge frowned slightly and called his name again.

"If the princess doesn't mind, just call me Ah-Yuan." Perhaps he was emboldened by the wine, his gaze towards her was much hotter than yesterday.

“Alright, A-Yuan!” Xiao Yuge didn’t refuse either, following his lead, and of course, she didn't miss the flash of joy in his eyes: “I heard you say yesterday that your foster father was seriously injured and hadn't recovered yet. As a doctor, I could perhaps take a look at him.”

"Really That's wonderful!" Long Yuan was both surprised and delighted. His foster father had saved his life and treated him like his own son. However, despite the efforts of countless doctors, his foster father's injuries hadn't improved and were instead getting worse. Long Yuan was extremely worried. Now that he heard Xiao Yu Ge possessed such medical skill, how could he not be overjoyed

"Follow me!"

Soon, Xiao Yu Ge followed Long Yuan into the elder's room. As soon as they entered, a strong and pungent smell of medicine hit them, causing them to wrinkle their noses involuntarily.

"Yuan'er, who is this" The elderly chieftain asked weakly, seeing his adopted son lead a strange girl inside.

"Father, this is the County..."

“Greetings, Elder Chieftain. My name is Ge’er, and I am a physician!” Xiao Yuge stopped Long Yuan’s words, after all, explaining too much to the elder chieftain at this time would be useless. It was better to leave some time for him to see her heal the injured.

"Well, father-in-law, let her show you." Long Yuan understood Xiao Yu Ge's meaning and followed her words.

"Hmm." As expected, the village elder nodded in agreement.

Xiao Yu sang carefully examined the elder's wounds, finding that they were quite deep. Because there were no good medicinal herbs on this mountain and he hadn't received timely treatment, the wounds had begun to fester and rot. No wonder the room smelled so foul when she entered.

Those wounds were so serious, yet he remained silent as ever. Xiao Yuge had to admire his resilience.

"How is it" Long Yuan nervously watched from the side, his heart pounding in his chest.

"Don't worry, with me here, the old chieftain will be fine. It's just that his wound has rotted, and I need some time to clean it. So, you have to find someone to help."

"I'll do it!" Long Yuan naturally wouldn't leave this to someone else. He couldn't heal wounds, but he could help out.

“I still need to prepare some medicinal herbs. My medicine box is running low on supplies, and the pharmacy is so far away. I can only go into the mountains to find them, so please find someone familiar with the mountain terrain to accompany me…”

"I'll go with you!" Before Xiao Yuge could finish speaking, Long Yuan eagerly said.

"Alright, we shouldn't delay. Let's go find some mint or mugwort or something similar. They all have analgesic properties. Later, I'm going to cut away that rotten flesh, it's bound to be excruciatingly painful, so finding something to temporarily relieve the pain would be helpful." Xiao Yu Ge said as she walked.

"I know a place where there must be lots of herbs!" Longyu led her towards the hillside.

They arrived together at the valley, which was indeed as Long Yuan had said, full of medicinal herbs. However, the herbs Xiao Yuge needed grew on the cliff face, so they could only climb up along the stone wall.

"When I was little, my stepfather often brought me here and told me it was a natural herb valley with many high-quality medicinal herbs."

Xiao Yu Ge nodded, glanced around: "That matter should not be delayed, let's go up and have a look to see if there are the medicinal herbs I need."

"My Lady, you are a precious being. How could you possibly take such a risk Just describe the herbs to me, and I will go up myself!" Long Yuan knew that she was skilled in light work, but this cliff face was treacherous. One slip, and she could be crushed to pieces. He didn't want her to risk her life.

“Usually, similar medicinal herbs grow beside this kind of medicine. If I make a mistake while picking them, wouldn't that delay the old village leader's illness Besides, I also hope to find it as soon as possible and heal the old village leader's wound before leaving here.”

"Don't worry, County Princess. Even if you don't save my foster father, I will personally send you both down the mountain!" After last night's events, Long Yuan was already convinced by her, and he wouldn't make things difficult for them again.

"Alright, saving people is the priority! We can discuss other things later. Don't forget, I have conditions!"

"Great!"

They looked at each other, took a deep breath, and leaped up. They both grasped the vines on the cliff face. The immense inertia caused their bodies to sway back and forth on the surface. Just watching was enough to make one's heart pound.

"Resurrection Grass!" Xiao Yu Ge suddenly pointed upwards with excitement, "This is a top-grade medicinal herb for healing wounds. With it, the elder's injuries will recover soon!"

Long Yuan followed her gaze and saw a unique medicinal herb. He looked around and said, "My Lady, please don't move here. I'll go get it!"

“Wait a minute!” Xiao Yuge saw him trying to swing across with the vines. However, if he did that, his footing wouldn't be secure enough. There could be several consequences: he might not reach the top and fall to his death, or after reaching the top, he might miss the vine on his way down and also face death. Or, even if he grabbed the vine, it might break under his impact, causing him to fall and die.me!" She just didn't expect her senior brother to decide this quickly, the speed was almost as fast as lightning. 。"Marriage" Silver Moon Princess was also taken aback for a moment, so she stared blan...
