Chapter 795: Injury

I didn’t even know how to respond anymore.

Lin Nan clapped her hands at the people in front of her and said in a clear voice, “Everyone can spread out and look for the herbs that you find interesting. If you need an explanation, feel free to look for the members of the Lin family around you. They will tell you where they came from and what they are used for.”

Everyone happily scattered while Lin Nan stayed behind to accompany us.

“These flowers are really beautiful,” I said sincerely.

Lin Nan smiled gently. “Not only are they beautiful, but they are also very useful.” She was very gentle and kind.

I reached out to hold a flower stalk. “It must be hard to cultivate them, right?”

Before Lin Nan could answer, I heard Jing Ni screaming, “Nanxing, be careful!”

I heard the sound of something cutting through the air. It was too late for me to turn back, but I was pushed forward by a strong force and fell directly into the flowers.

Following that, I heard screams everywhere. Something pressed down heavily on my back. The flowers were crushed.

“Nanxing!”

“Nanxing!”

Jing Ni and Mai Qi called out to me nervously.

I used all my strength to flip over the heavy object on my back.

Jing Ni and Mai Qi rushed over to check on me. “Are you hurt?”

I wasn’t. When I looked at the “thing” that I had pushed away, my heart sank.

It was Lin Nan. She was unconscious, and there was an arrow stuck in her back.

What the hell? What era was this? Why would someone even use an arrow?

Then, I heard the sound of gunshots.

The three of us instinctively crouched on the ground. This was a survival skill that had been trained through many years of bad luck. We were all stunned for a moment before we quickly reacted.

The sea of flowers provided a good cover. The three of us were crouching on the ground. We couldn’t see what was happening outside. We could only hear the endless sounds of crying, screaming, cursing, gunshots, and the sound of arrows piercing through the air.

“Stay down, and don’t move. Jing Tian and the others will definitely come looking for us,” I instructed in a low voice.

These instructions were unnecessary. After so many years, we had more than enough experience to face this situation. The men could handle this. We only needed to wait.

“Nanxing, will she die?” Mai Qi nudged the motionless Lin Nan.

I frowned as I looked at my surroundings before sitting up. The flower stalk that was half the height of a person was enough to hide my figure.

I reached out to tear off Lin Nan’s clothes and took a deep breath.

Half of the tip of the arrow had already sunk into her back. The position and depth were fine, so they shouldn’t hurt her internal organs. However, the skin around the tip of the arrow was slowly changing color at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“It’s poisonous?” Mai Qi and Jing Ni were shocked.

I nodded. Why was I always so unlucky?

I thought for a moment and sighed. I took out a small dagger from my boot and wanted to slash at my finger.

Mai Qi stopped me. “What are you doing? Are you going to bleed yourself again? Nanxing, are you crazy? If you keep doing this, you’ll eventually bleed yourself dry! We’re at the Lin Family! Every member of the Lin family is a doctor, so let them save her!”

I sighed and pushed her hand away. I quickly made a cut on my ring finger.

“Saving her is more important. We can’t wait anymore. Listen to the fight. Help won’t be coming anytime soon. We can’t watch her die. Come, help me pull out her arrow. It’s not deep, so there won’t be much bleeding. I’ll seal it with blood. I believe that it’ll start to heal in a while. No matter what, we have to keep her alive until they come to save us.”

Seeing that I was already bleeding, the two of them had no choice but to help me treat Lin Nan’s injury.

Mai Qi pulled out the arrow, and Jing Ni quickly covered the wound with the corner of Lin Nan’s clothes. Lin Nan was dressed in modest clothes made from cotton and linen, so they made good bandages.
