The Double / Marriage of the Di Daughter Part 2

☆ Chapter 234 The Past

That arrow was the one Yin Zhili shot when Ji Heng took Jiang Li away. He wanted to aim at Jiang Li, because as long as he killed Jiang Li, Ji Heng would be in agony, but at the last moment, he felt a little reluctant and still aimed the arrow at Ji Heng.

The scene of Hongshan Temple 23 years ago was repeating itself, the same lonely army deep into the enemy's territory, the same ambush from all sides. If there was any difference, when Ji Minghan went there, Yu Hongye was already dead, but when Ji Heng went there, Jiang Li was still alive. 

Perhaps it was because his beloved was still alive that he could rely on his heart to protect her and to support him for so long.

Jiang Li didn't care about anything. She was thin and frail, and at this moment, she was so anxious that she burst out with huge energy and dragged Ji Heng into the cave. She also tied the horse to the stone in the cave and went to find water and firewood in the dark. She had to make a fire and boil water to bandage Ji Heng's wound. 

She was not familiar with this jungle, but she had some experience in the woods in Tongxiang that year. It was just that it was not easy to find dead branches in the snow, and Jiang Li walked a long way to find some. She carried the firewood, and the kettle filled with water and ran back to the cave.

Fortunately, there was a fire starter in Ji Heng's horse armor bag. Jiang Li searched Ji Heng's body and found some medicine powder, which was probably prepared by Situ Jiuyue before he left. 

Jiang Li used the fire starter to light a fire and found a stone bowl to boil water. She took off her outer robe and spread it on the ground, letting Ji Heng lie on it. Ji Heng closed his eyes and looked unconscious. Jiang Li's tears flowed down in an instant.

She always thought that Ji Heng was a person who could be stumped by nothing, because he acted too strong, and naturally gave people an illusion that he would not be injured, bleed, or die. But in fact, Ji Heng was just an ordinary person. He was about the same age as Yin Zhili. When he was injured, he was also very fragile and might leave forever.

Jiang Li trembled with her hands and tried her best to calm herself down. She could only clean Ji Heng's sword, take off his armor, and use the sword to cut open his clothes that were stuck with blood and flesh, and see the scars on his body.

He ran in the rain of arrows today, blocking the rain of arrows with his shield, but some of them were injured on his body, as well as knife and sword wounds. His skin was actually very white, and his figure was very graceful, like a leopard full of power. 

However, at this moment, these scars and blood were like cracks on a porcelain white vase, which made people want to cry when they saw it.

Jiang Li wanted to pull out the arrow.

She held the handle of the arrow.

In a flash, the words that Wen Renyao had said in the past suddenly emerged in her mind. He said that he had told Ji Heng a fortune when he was fourteen years old. 

The fortune said that ten years later, Ji Heng would eventually be robbed by a woman, and his body would be dead in the wilderness, pecked by hawks and dogs. 

Now it seems that she is indeed Ji Heng's calamity. If it weren't for saving her, Ji Heng wouldn't have to go deep into danger, let alone get covered in wounds and endanger his life.

She pulled out the arrow.

The motionless body suddenly trembled violently, and it seemed that Jiang Li could hear a painful groan. Jiang Li quickly turned her head to look at Ji Heng's expression. He frowned and seemed to be in great pain. Jiang Li called him softly, but he didn't move or answer.
