Chapter 518 What is a Brother?
The large group of people continued to move forward with difficulty on the winding road like a slow-moving snake.
The road was bumpy and every step felt like stepping on thorns, making a dull sound.
The morale of the team became increasingly low, as if shrouded in a thick haze.
Everyone looked tired, with their heads hung, and their former high morale had long since disappeared.
Since they set out, more than half a month has passed in a flash. During this period, they have been sleeping in the open air and experienced many hardships and dangers.
Everyone was extremely thin, with sunken cheeks and prominent cheekbones, and their clothes hung loosely on their bodies, as if they could be blown down by a gust of wind.
Their legs seemed to be filled with lead as they moved mechanically, and every step required all their strength.
The cracked lips, the pale face and the lifeless eyes all tell of the hardships along the way.
Occasionally, a few heavy sighs were heard in the team, which were the confusion about the road ahead and the helplessness of tired bodies.
They supported each other and moved forward step by step, not knowing how far they had to go to reach their destination, nor what would be waiting for them in the future.
Another soldier fell.
Before he died, he looked at Chen Changan with lifeless eyes and asked only one question: "Master Chen, I believe you. How long will it take us to reach the vast sea?"
Chen Changan hugged the young body, but didn't know how to answer.
Chen Changan didn’t know either. He just heard that one could travel through time from here, but to be honest, he had never been there!
"Master Chen, we... Hey!"
Lao Ma's lips were cracked, and looking at the vast desert, he felt that he had reached his limit.
Chen Changan took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth: "Lao Ma, take a dozen brothers with you and go ahead to investigate the situation and see where the end of this road is."
"I don't want to say this, but I have no choice but to decide. If I can't leave, my brothers will dig a hole for me. Eighteen years later, I will be a brave man again!"
Chen Changan patted Lao Ma, and Lao Ma understood what he meant.
He wanted to emulate Cao Cao's attempt to quench his thirst by looking at the plums. Since the young master asked him to go, he might as well go.
The night is as dark as ink, so thick that it cannot be dissolved.
Inside the carriage, bean-sized flames flickered, distorting the figures of the three people in the tent into a hazy shape, as if they were ghosts from hell.
Yue Shan lay straight on the simple bed. His face was as pale as paper hit by frost and lifeless. His breath was as weak as a gossamer, as if it would disappear in the cold air in the next second.
A feathered arrow, like a devil's fang, embedded deeply in his chest.
"Why, Tiedan, have you made up your mind to save Yueshan?"
Chen Changan gritted his teeth, and Tiedan sent someone to call him.
Tiedan shook his head: "You have to understand, it's not that I didn't save Yue Shan at the beginning, it's that Yue Shan's body couldn't bear the arrow being pulled out. Now... it's a matter of life and death."
"If I save him, he will die. If I don't save him, he will die too. What's the difference?"
Tiedan'er's gaze fell directly on Yue Shan, and his eyes instantly became icy cold.
She slowly walked to Yue Shan's side, half-knelt down, and her hands trembled unconsciously. It was not because of nervousness, but because of the conflict and struggle in her heart.
If he saves one person, he will kill his own subjects!
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself, but her clenched teeth still revealed the turmoil in her heart.
"Master Chen, please help me stabilize him."
Tiedan suppressed her emotions and tried to keep her voice as steady as possible, but the slightly trembling ending of her voice still revealed her inner unrest.
Chen Changan hurried forward and held Yue Shan's shoulders tightly with both hands.
He knew too well the grudge between the two and was afraid that if he wasn't careful, it would trigger an uncontrollable storm.
Tiedan slowly stretched out his hands, his hands were slender but strong.
She held the arrow gently, and as soon as she exerted force, Yue Shan groaned in pain.
"Bear with it." Tiedan said coldly, without a trace of tenderness in his tone.
Tiedan bit her lower lip and paused for a moment. She was having a fierce struggle in her heart.
To save or not to save?
After saving Yue Shan, how would she face her fellow disciples who had died?
But if she didn't save him, she would be going against her original intention as a doctor.
After taking a deep breath, she decided to continue. "I'm going to pull it out." She whispered, and then pulled it out with force.
Yue Shan's body tensed up instantly, like a fully drawn bow, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, splashing on Tiedan'er's face.
The warm blood made Tiedan's body stiffen slightly.
"Yue Shan!"
Chen Changan exclaimed, his eyes reddened.
Tiedaner felt uncomfortable when he saw Yueshan's painful expression.
"Bring the medicine!"
Tiedan carefully took the medicine in his hand, which was made from some unknown herb, and gently applied it on Yue Shan's bloody wound.
The medicine seemed to have a mysterious magic. As soon as it came into contact with the wound, the blood that was flowing out miraculously stopped slowly.
Yue Shan's eyelids trembled slightly, as if he was trying to break free from the shackles of darkness.
After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.
The eyes that were originally dull and lifeless gradually became brighter at this moment.
“Brother Yue!!”
Chen Changan was originally immersed in worry and despair, but when he saw Yue Shan waking up, he was instantly overjoyed.
Her eyes were red, she rushed forward, hugged Yue Shan tightly, tears welled up in her eyes, and she cried like a child.
For many days, during these long days, Chen Changan had no appetite and could not sleep at night, worrying about Yue Shan's safety all the time.
Every night, he prayed, hoping that Brother Yue would wake up soon.
Now, Brother Yue has finally woken up, how can he not be excited.
Yue Shan's consciousness seemed to be trapped by the torrent of time on the eve of the outbreak of the war. The air around him was filled with the breath of death and despair, but his eyes remained firm.
The moment he saw Chen Changan, his originally straight body shook violently, as if all his strength had been drained away.
A feeling of weakness instantly emanated from every pore of his body.
He opened his mouth, his voice was as hoarse as sandpaper, with an urgency that was difficult to conceal: "Master Chen, go quickly, I will protect you!"
There was a determination to fight to the bitter end in that voice, as well as unconditional loyalty to Chen Changan.
As he spoke, Yue Shan stood in front of Chen Changan, regardless of the wounds that were already covered in wounds and the blood gushing out of them.
It is extremely difficult, but extremely determined.
He tried to use his scarred body to create a safe space for Chen Changan!
Protect him from wind and rain and guard against all unknown dangers.
Chen Changan looked at the scene in front of him, and his eyes instantly turned red!
He looked at Yue Shan's shaky but still persisting figure, and his heart felt like it was hit hard by a heavy hammer. The grief was like a surging tide, completely drowning him!
What is a brother?
This is!
