Female consort [Gl]

[55] Weakness

Qiu Che, the weak spot

, had reached her limit. She had lost consciousness since she fell into the water. No

matter how strong her martial arts skills were, she was still a mortal. It was not easy for her to hold on until now after falling from a high altitude.

I don't know how long it had been.

Qiu Che woke up to the sound of gurgling water and the slight vibrations her body felt.

She was not fully conscious yet. When she opened her eyes, she saw only a familiar pale face.

The other person's hair was wet and stuck to her face, and water drops were sliding down from her chin. Because she had been soaked in the water for too long, her cheeks and lips were pale.

The teardrop mole at the end of her eye became particularly conspicuous.

She was breathing softly, carrying Qiu Che on her back, step by step, walking towards an unknown place in the empty valley.

Behind her was the rolling Nanxi River.

Qiu Che and she were both soaked, and their bodies were pressed together, and their temperatures became particularly hot.

She felt a little uncomfortable, but when she spoke, she found that her voice was hoarse: "...Where are we going?"

Li Qingwu paused and whispered: "Are you awake?"

Qiu Che said "um" and patted her arm: "Put me down, I'll walk by myself."

"Listen to your own voice first," Li Qingwu retorted slowly. Not only did he not put her down, but he also bounced up a little with some effort. "It's dark, it's not safe outside, we have to find a place to settle down."

Qiu Che looked up and noticed that they fell off the cliff at noon, and now it was dark.

They did fall into the river as Qiu Che expected, and they survived by chance. And because Qiu Che had been holding Li Qingwu tightly, the two were not washed away by the current.

But unfortunately, the current was going down.

They could not follow the river back to the capital, but were washed to a more distant and unfamiliar land.

This place is surrounded by empty valleys, with cliffs thousands of feet high, and no one lives.

On the mountain not far away, there was a faint sound of wolf howling.

The jungle covered the land piece by piece, making it difficult to tell the direction.

It was very dangerous to spend the night in such a deep mountain forest. They had to find a temporary shelter as soon as possible and survive tonight.

But Qiu Che opened her eyes for less than a moment before her eyelids started to droop again and she soon fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up again, a bonfire had lit up in front of her.

She was lying in a cave, with a makeshift nest made of dry grass under her, just in a sheltered place.

Li Qingwu was nowhere to be seen.

Qiu Che subconsciously wanted to sit up, but her head was dizzy and she suddenly felt dizzy when she stood up.

When she lowered her head, she found that she was only wearing a white middle coat.

She touched her neck and shoulders again - sure enough, the shoulder pads and fake Adam's apple were gone.

They were probably washed away by the water after falling into the water.
