Chapter 40 - The girl's rage

In the adjacent room, Xia Huaiwu's condition should have stabilized after days of treatment. However, just after he was fed a mouthful of water, his condition took a sharp turn for the worse, and he suddenly began to vomit blood. The blood was dark in color and shocking. When Xia Zhuozhuo hurried over, the ground was already a pool of dazzling red. "Little..." Xia Huaiwu's voice was weak, but when his eyes touched Xia Zhuozhuo, his originally dull eyes miraculously flashed a ray of light. Xia Zhuozhuo shook her head gently and said in a low and firm tone. "Zhuozhuo." She was not completely reassured about Si Shenxing. His identity was too complicated and too special, so she decided not to reveal to him that she was the seventh lady of the Xia family for the time being. Blood was connected, and Xia Zhuozhuo's words made Xia Huaiwu immediately understand. He asked with concern: "Zhuozhuo, are you okay? Are you injured? " Xia Zhuozhuo shook her head again and replied softly, "I'm fine." As she spoke, she gently pulled Xia Huaiwu's hand and began to carefully diagnose his pulse. Half a minute later, her frown finally relaxed. After releasing her hand, she turned her head and asked Si Shenxing who followed her, "Where are my clothes?" Si Shenxing tilted his head slightly, and Huo Gang immediately understood and handed him a bag. Inside were Xia Zhuozhuo's clothes and a small package she carried with her. Xia Zhuozhuo quickly found a delicate small medicine bottle from the small package, poured out a black pill, and handed it to Xia Huaiwu: "Take it." If it were before this, Xia Huaiwu would definitely ask what this was, but at this moment, he took the pill almost without hesitation and swallowed it dry. Xia Zhuozhuo also poured out a pill on his own and swallowed it without hesitation. Si Shenxing looked at the two of them with deep eyes and asked, "Is this... the antidote for 'qi'? " Xia Zhuozhuo nodded gently, and handed one to Si Shenxing: "You also went in at that time, so take one too. The Ancient Martial Hall has many people and we have to use some extraordinary means to ensure that there is no risk of failure." Si Shenxing looked at Xia Zhuozhuo deeply when he heard this. Xia Zhuozhuo understood his eyes, which clearly said: Even if there is no risk of failure, there will be times when you fail. Xia Zhuozhuo's heart choked, but then she responded stubbornly: "That's because Duan Heng is too cunning! And I underestimated him. Otherwise, he would never be my opponent!" She broke into the Ancient Martial Hall alone, not impulsively, nor arrogantly. She had absolute confidence in herself and was sure that she could destroy the Ancient Martial Hall. However, things are unpredictable. The information provided by Guzi was wrong. Duan Heng's martial arts were far more powerful than they imagined, and he was more cunning. This led to her failure. Si Shenxing smiled: "Miss Zhuozhuo, I didn't say anything. " "..." Xia Zhuozhuo was choked again, and suddenly didn't want to continue talking with him. But thinking carefully, he really didn't say anything. Just when she was about to speak, Ama's voice came from outside: "Master..." After Ama entered the door, his eyes wandered between Xia Zhuozhuo and Xia Huaiwu, and he seemed a little hesitant. Si Shenxing saw his embarrassment and said, "There are no outsiders here, you can talk." Ama spoke up: "All the people in the Ancient Martial Hall have been taken away, but the matter involves too many things, and Director Fang has also encountered some obstacles, so you need to go there in person." "I know." Si Shenxing nodded, and then said to Xia Zhuozhuo: "The matter has not been completely resolved." "No need." Xia Zhuozhuo refused directly, "We have disturbed you for a long time, and we will leave now. " As she said this, she was about to help Xia Huaiwu. But as soon as Xia Huaiwu got off the bed, he staggered and almost fell to the ground. Xia Zhuozhu had no choice but to say, "I may... disturb you again." Si Shenxing had a playful smile on his face. He knew why Xia Zhuozhu needed to stay, but he didn't point it out. "Lin Shun has many rooms, not just these two." He said meaningfully. Xia Zhuozhu nodded slightly and watched Si Shenxing leave. She turned around and helped Xia Huaiwu back to the bed, and asked with concern, "How do you feel now?" Xia Huaiwu has always been face-saving, but at this moment he pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm fine." Xia Zhuozhu frowned slightly: "I'm your doctor now. If you don't want to die here, you'd better tell the truth." Xia Huaiwu really didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said, "It was really uncomfortable just now, and even breathing was a little difficult. But after taking your medicine, I feel much better. " However, the pain was still unbearable for him. He felt that he might fall down at any time and couldn't even walk upright. Xia Zhuozhuo decisively reached out to check: "Does it hurt here?" "No." "What about here?" Xia Huaiwu's face changed, and his lips lost their color instantly. Xia Zhuozhuo retracted his hand and said: "Two ribs are broken, and they need to be taken care of. There is nothing wrong with other parts." The injury to the ribs is serious and cannot be set. It can only be slowly recuperated. Xia Huaiwu has learned martial arts, so he naturally knows the severity of broken ribs. He said with some concern: "How can I face my mother like this now?" Xia Zhuozhuo's tone was a little reproachful: "Now you know that Mom... knows that Mrs. Xia will worry about you if she knows? Then why did you run around?" "I didn't run around..." Xia Huaiwu was interrupted by Xia Zhuozhuo before he finished speaking. "Aren't you from the Ancient Martial Arts Hall? Why did they treat you like this? "Xia Zhuozhuo's tone was a bit suspicious. "What?" Xia Huaiwu looked confused. "It was said to be a set of ancient martial arts secrets... but I really didn't take it!" Xia Huaiwu hurriedly explained. There was no need for Xia Huaiwu to lie to Xia Zhuozhuo about this matter. Xia Zhuozhuo nodded: "I know, I will find out." The secret book must be very important for the people of the Ancient Martial Arts Hall to torture Xia Huaiwu to this extent regardless of his identity. Maybe it also plays an important role in their Anbu. Moreover, Xia Huaiwu was caught, and the so-called secret book thief was the fuse. Although the Ancient Martial Arts Hall has been destroyed, this person must not be let go. "Zhuo..." Xia Huaiwu hesitated to speak, and finally couldn't help asking: "Didn't you always live in the countryside before? When did you learn these?" Xia Zhuozhuo smiled faintly: "Is it not allowed that there are masters in the countryside? " Xia Huaiwu believed it without a doubt. After all, many masters like to retire to the mountains in the end. Speaking of this, Xia Huaiwu suddenly felt a strong sense of sleepiness. It was the effect of the sedative injected by the doctor before he vomited blood. The sedative has the effect of sleeping and pain relief. Xia Zhuozhuo said softly: "You should sleep for a while. When you feel better, we will go back." Xia Huaiwu lay down in response and soon fell into a deep sleep. Xia Zhuozhuo glanced at him and said softly: "Do you mind if I use your mobile phone to report safety to my family?" "No mind. "Xia Huaiwu's voice was a little unclear, but he still handed over the phone. There were two cracks on the phone screen, but fortunately it did not affect the use. Xia Zhuozhuo turned on the phone, the screen lit up, and the wallpaper was a photo of Xia Huaiwu and Xia Liuli. In the photo, the two were wearing black and white graduation gowns and smiling brightly. It should have been taken on the day Xia Liuli graduated. Xia Huaiwu also saw this photo and was suddenly embarrassed: "Liuli asked me to change it before... I was too lazy to change it." Xia Zhuozhuo looked at the two people in the photo, with mixed feelings in her heart. She sighed softly, suppressed this complicated emotion in her heart, and began to contact her family with her mobile phone...
