Chapter 7 Who Was That Woman

Watching Nan Muze and Liu Shengsheng leave together, Mu Hong, who followed them out, became angrier.

"Who is that woman? How could you care so much about a servant?"

The maid beside her said, "The prince may have been deceived. Look at how confident and convincing that woman is. If it were someone else, they would probably believe her too."

"Any woman dares to draw your attention. Liu Shengsheng was one of them, but she was at least the daughter of a general. What is this thing today?"

"Yes, Prince dislikes Liu Shengsheng very much, so she is not a threat to you, but this..."

"Shut up."

“…”

Liu Shengsheng was looking for a kind of herb, which usually grew in damp caves, especially in deep ones.

Then Nan Muze brought her up the mountain.

After sitting in the carriage for two hours and walking on the mountain road for another half an hour, they finally found a cave.

They brought more than twenty guards, but no one recognized the herbs mentioned by Liu Shengsheng. In the end, she had to go in and find them herself.

The cave was unusually damp, and the sound of dripping water could be heard all the way. The interior of the cave was dim, but with more than twenty people holding a dozen torches, it became quite bright.

"Ah! There's a snake!"

Someone shouted, and then everyone looked down.

With just a glance, they saw a dense swarm of snakes...

"There are snakes. Everyone, be careful..."

"Quick! Protect the prince!"

Perhaps their appearance had disturbed these snakes, so they swarmed towards them and quickly blocked their path...

The guards pulled out their swords and cut snakes under their feet. Liu Shengsheng was also shocked by this scene. How could there be so many poisonous snakes?

If bitten a few times, one would probably die on the spot...

Suddenly, a snake pounced on her. Just as Liu Shengsheng was about to dodge, the snake was directly cut into two halves.

Only then did she realize that Nan Muze was standing in front of her to protect her.

He suddenly grabbed Liu Shengsheng's hand and said, "Follow me closely."

After speaking, he swung his sword to chop the snake in front of him while pulling Liu Shengsheng to move forward quickly.

Several guards were bitten by snakes, and the torches in their hands fell to the ground one by one. The cave instantly darkened.

Liu Shengsheng quickly picked up a torch that had not been put out and followed Nan Muze forward quickly.

The twenty or so people behind were all trapped in place, suffering heavy casualties...

"Wait, I saw medicinal herbs!"

Liu Shengsheng suddenly stopped and pointed with a torch to the corner ahead, saying, "That's it!"

However, there was a huge snake coiled next to the grass. When the light came on, the startled snake immediately pounced.

In an instant, Nan Muze pushed her away and slashed at it with his sword!

"Go pick the herbs. I will deal with it!"

Liu Shengsheng nodded and rushed over without saying a word, but there were many little snakes around. As soon as Liu Shengsheng passed by, she was bitten on the leg.

She didn't even know how many snakes were at her feet. It seemed that every time she kicked one away, there was another one. She could only endure the intense pain, pick the herbs, and then run towards Nan Muze.

"I've got it. Let's retreat quickly!"

At a glance, the huge snake had been trampled by Nan Muze.

His long hair was flowing, and his handsome face was splattered with snake blood. As soon as he heard the voice of Liu Shengsheng, Nan Muze jumped over and hugged her waist with one hand, while using lightness skills to jump out of the encirclement of the snakes.

Feeling lightness skill for the first time, Liu Shengsheng was full of surprise in her heart. Before she could think much, the two had already landed.

This lightness skill is too fast ...

He came out just like that?

Liu Shengsheng blushed slightly and pushed Nan Muze away as soon as she got out of the cave.

"If we had known that there were so many snakes inside, we wouldn't have entered."

"No prior knowledge."

Nan Muze said coldly. He stared at Liu Shengsheng. Suddenly, he lowered his head and said, "You look like someone I know."

His handsome face suddenly enlarged in front of her, and Liu Shengsheng could even hear his heartbeat...

Liu Shengsheng suddenly blushed. She was not shy, but nervous.

"Could it be that he has recognized me?"

Liu Shengsheng wanted to change the topic. "Your men must have been poisoned by the snake venom. We have to go in and save them..."

It's too late. As soon as those in the cave fell down, they were surrounded by a group of snakes. They were not killed by the poison but were bitten to death. The ones guarding the cave entrance have already gone to find reinforcements. What we need to do now is to leave this place first.

Nan Muze kept staring at her. "You'd better really save Marquis, otherwise, I will throw you into this cave and bury you with that group of people."

Such a beautiful voice actually uttered such cold words. Liu Shengsheng's eyelids twitched, and she was about to say something, but suddenly she spat out a mouthful of blood.

She was greatly shocked. What's going on?

She wanted to feel her pulse, but as soon as she moved, she spat out another mouthful of black blood...

It's snake venom. It's acting up...

Seeing that she had been spitting blood, Nan Muze asked nervously, "Have you been bitten?"

Liu Shengsheng was already dizzy. Before she could say anything, she had completely fainted.

Nan Muze was angry and anxious. He picked her up and strode down the mountain.

"Damn it, didn't you tell me when you came out?"

For some reason, he felt a bit nervous.

Was it because if she died, no one would be able to save Marquis?

Yes, this was the reason!

Nan Muze stopped irritably and put her under a tree on the side of the road.

Seeing that the area where Liu Shengsheng was bitten by the snake had turned black, he seemed to struggle for a long time before finally bowing his head and sucking out the venom from the wound.

Nan Muze's face was full of disgust, but he still sucked out the venom bit by bit and sealed several important acupoints of Liu Shengsheng to prevent the snake venom from spreading further.

He took out a handkerchief and wiped his lips heavily, then said fiercely, "You better be able to detoxify!"

After staring at her dirty face for a long time, Nan Muze suddenly felt that she looked a little like Liu Shengsheng...

Thinking of Liu Shengsheng, Nan Muze felt a little disgusted.

But he soon denied his guess.

Liu Shengsheng's face was uneven, full of pimples and pus-filled bumps. Although her face looked black and dirty, it was incredibly smooth. It was unlikely that it was the same person.

At most, their facial features were a little similar.

Moreover, Liu Shengsheng was just an extremely jealous idiot who knew nothing about medicine...

Thinking of this, Nan Muze suddenly felt a little tired. He leaned against the trunk next to him and closed his eyes.

"I have done my best. Whether he can survive or not is up to fate."

“…”

After an unknown amount of time, Liu Shengsheng's fingers moved and she weakly opened her eyes, but all she could see was darkness.

It was getting dark, but she was lying under a big tree...

Liu Shengsheng's first reaction was that she had been abandoned. She was about to complain about Nan Muze's heartlessness, but as soon as she moved, she found herself leaning on someone's shoulder.

She quickly sat up and found that Nan Muze was sitting motionlessly beside her.

He didn't leave me behind?

Liu Shengsheng looked at her wound again. As a doctor, she soon found that her wound had been treated, and a lot of poisonous blood had been sucked out.

That was why she could wake up...

"No way..."

Liu Shengsheng looked at Nan Muze in disbelief. "Did he help me suck out the poisonous blood?"

Is that possible...
