Chapter 292 Confused Ai Ying
Chapter 292 Confused Ai Ying
With Lou Xiao's guarantee, it means that she will definitely stay.
Li Huaiqing smiled slightly and looked at Lou Xiao who was eating with hearty chopsticks.
The guards brought the Great Rejuvenating Pill. The witch doctor was watching them eat while swallowing his saliva.
Now that Li Huaiqing has brought something that is said to contain many precious medicinal materials, as a doctor he is naturally extremely curious.
His eyes followed the brocade box in the guard's hand closely. He rubbed his hands together and wiped them on his back.
Reach out and take it.
But the guard saw that his eyes were full of light and he was suspicious, so he withdrew his hand and refused to give it to him.
"This is a rare life-saving medicine in the world, be careful!"
Li Huaiqing and Lou Xiao looked at each other, then stood up and walked over to check.
The witch doctor immediately started to make a scene, "Look what happened! What happened? I sewed up his wound! What if your stuff is fake and kills someone and you blame me?!"
Li Huaiqing took the brocade box from the guard and opened it. There was a round pill inside. When he opened the brocade box, he smelled a medicinal fragrance.
The witch doctor took a deep breath and murmured,
"Rehmannia root, epimedium, golden cherry... Hey, what is this! Why is the prescription wrong?"
Li Huaiqing asked someone to bring warm water. "Do you know the recipe of the Great Huan Dan in the Central Plains? Mine is naturally improved, and there are some differences from the original Great Huan Dan."
He walked to Ai Ying's bed, opened his mouth with one hand, and stuffed the brown pill into Ai Ying's mouth.
The guard then fed him some water and helped him swallow the pill.
Lou Xiao watched the whole process from the side.
The witch doctor was chattering away, feeling unwilling that the medicine had been swallowed before he could figure out the prescription. He was beating his chest and stamping his feet, regretting not having taken the initiative.
Lou Xiao stood in front of the bed and felt Ai Ying's pulse with one hand. Li Huaiqing said,
"It will take a while for the medicine to take effect, so don't be so anxious."
Lou Xiao nodded. She had filled her stomach with something, so she didn't need to rush to eat anymore.
But in this season, if the food is left over, it will definitely go bad. After Lou Xiao felt Ai Ying's pulse was strong,
He returned to the table and continued to clean up the battle, not wanting to waste food.
Li Huaiqing naturally accompanied her, but he was also wondering in his heart that Lou Xiao did not seem to care much about Ai Ying. Was this Dahuan Dan a waste?
At this point, he couldn't ask Ai Ying to spit it out, so that Lou Xiao could see his good side and be grateful.
It's worth it in the end.
The two of them ate in silence. The witch doctor who was watching Ai Ying's reaction with the guards soon cried out in surprise.
"Hey! Hey! He seems to be waking up! I didn't hit him!"
Ai Ying heard the noisy shouting while she was drowsy. She frowned tightly and tried hard to open her eyes to see who was talking so much.
But my body felt heavy as if stuck in a quagmire, especially my eyes, which were so difficult to open.
Countless fireworks exploded in my mind, and those dusty past scenes emerged one by one.
He was struggling to wake up, but after seeing those scenes, he became addicted.
The hot weather and dry environment are like the stench of animals that penetrates deep into the bone marrow.
There is also a sky full of yellow sand and a caravan riding camels slowly moving forward.
He was sitting on the camel, swaying from side to side, and could only see the blurry silhouette of the person in front of him. Who was that?
Ai Ying tried to recall the name, but she couldn't say it out loud.
There was a lot of noise in my ears, but the caravan was so quiet that even the wind could not be heard. Who was talking?
Wake up soon!
Ai Ying finally heard clear words. It was not someone he knew, but the following voice was very familiar to him.
"It seems that the medicine has taken effect. It is worthy of being called the Li family's Great Huandan. Ai Ying, wake up." Lou Xiao's voice sounded somewhat happy and encouraging.
Li Huaiqing was still persuading him, "Don't worry, he will be fine soon."
Ai Ying grasped Lou Xiao's voice and struggled hard in her mind to wake up.
He vaguely remembered that he seemed to be injured. If he continued to be dragged into the quagmire, would he never wake up again?
No, he hadn't told her who he was yet.
He didn't believe she could completely forget him, he still had a lot to say to her...
Ai Ying was struggling forward as if against the current. He seemed to see her hand stretched out at the end. If he was just a little closer, a little closer, he would be able to reach her.
Li Huaiqing advised her to go back and rest. Since she had taken the Da Huan Dan, Ai Ying's life was safe.
At night, the witch doctor and a guard would be enough to guard the place, so there was no need for her to come and watch.
While Lou Xiao was still hesitating, she suddenly felt someone holding her hand while standing in front of Ai Ying's bed.
She looked down and saw that Ai Ying had woken up, sweating and flushed.
The exposed eye was watery and clear, as if filled with starlight, looking up at her from bottom to top.
Lou Xiao was struck in the heart in an instant, and did not intend to withdraw her hand. She bent down and touched his forehead with her other hand.
"I'm glad you woke up. The fever seems to have subsided a little."
Li Huaiqing took a look and stopped trying to persuade her. He greeted Ai Ying and said,
"Ai Ying, do you feel any discomfort?"
But Ai Ying ignored him and just stared at Lou Xiao intently.
But the posture of holding her head high was too uncomfortable, and Ai Ying soon became exhausted.
But he refused to let go of Lou Xiao's hand and just put his forehead on Lou Xiao's palm, as if he was acting coquettishly.
Lou Xiao was a thick-skinned person, and thought he was still in pain, so he didn't even struggle.
When she asked him if he was feeling unwell, Ai Ying made a hoarse sound from his throat.
"I've been looking for you for a long time..."
There was a hint of sobbing in his voice, mixed with his heavy, wet breath hitting her palm.
Lou Xiao was a little at a loss.
"Why did you lie to me..."
Where did you get this from? Lou Xiao asked softly,
"What did I lie to you about?"
"You lied to me about everything." Ai Ying seemed to be still not fully awake, and perhaps he was taking advantage of her soft heart to get her attention.
Ai Ying enumerated her crimes, "Your name, your hometown... Zhongyuan, it's not what you said."
He slowly raised his head and accused her, "You made me suffer so much...but you don't remember anything."
Lou Xiao was puzzled. She signaled the witch doctor to come and check his pulse to see what was going on.
In order to prevent Ai Ying from getting emotionally unstable, Lou Xiao accepted the accusation against her and coaxed him,
"It's my fault. Can you please let me go first? Let the witch doctor take your pulse. After you are cured, you can come to me to settle the matter of harming you."
Ai Ying shook her head and refused, "Let me go, and you'll be gone."
Li Huaiqing watched quietly from the side, his eyes fixed on Ai Ying's face.
He hoped Ai Ying would say more so that he could piece together Lou Xiao and his past from those few words.
Then he fixed his eyes on Lou Xiao's face and saw how gentle she was.
She really fell for it.
