Chapter 38: Attacks

The cavalry led by Luo Xiang and BeiYau stopped near a waterfall in the middle of the Valley of Mourned, called the Valley of Mourned because it was known as a pretty dangerous place because many family members had disappeared and didn’t return after hunting there.

LuoXiang’s big horse stands on the edge of the cliff, right under the cliff where the waterfall flows down into the valley below their feet, the air and the extraordinary scenery are not like the valley’s bad reputation, which makes most people avoid going there.

BeiYau’s men came to report after checking the surroundings.

“Your Majesty. No settlements were found kilometers away from here, it looks like the area is indeed deserted,” BeiYau reported.

LuoXiang glanced down the waterfall, where among the trees there were buildings below, LuoXiang pulled the reins of his horse.

“We’ll check out below”

BeiYau nodded.

.....

“Yes, Your Majesty”

BeiYau raised his hand to his men to follow him immediately.

“Let’s move!” he exclaimed.

....

The healer finished bandaging the wound on BaiYing’s palm.

“The wound was deep enough, and because the young master’s condition was still poisoned so that his blood was difficult to clot, it was recommended that the young master don’t move too much and stays in bed until the wound dries,” said the healer while tidied up his medical equipment got ready to go.

BaiYing glanced at YiFang.

“Uhukk, brother, Ying’er is thirsty”

YiFang smiled, he looked at the teapot beside the bed which already empty.

BaiYing the one who poured all the water from it, BaiYing thought while biting his lips a little bit nervous.

Slowly he shifted BaiYing’s head to the pillow and got up from his seat.

“Wait a minute, I’ll get you a drink”

When YiFang was out of sight in the room, BaiYing got up from his bed and called a physician to approach him.

“Eh Healer” he stretched something in front of the old healer, something in wrapped cloth with a very beautiful motif, the healer opened his eyes wide excited to see what was inside it, he glanced at BaiYing who seemed to be looking at him with a strange look.

“Eh t this?”

BaiYing nodded, even as the old healer was still confused.

.......

Shortly after the physician left the hut.

YiFang put the bowl of congee on the table beside BaiYing.

“Brother, eat first, then after this take medicine from the healer.”

BaiYing pulled his body slowly, he was so weak from running out too much blood and his palms were still throbbing, it was really uncomfortable, he’d been so stupid for being so weak and useless.

“Eulk, brother, the medicine, do Ying’er have to drink it every day? it’s too bitter, what if my tongue goes numb because I have to drink this all the time?”

YiFang blew the hot smoked porridge on his spoon.

“Who said it? This medicine is good for your health, didn’t you hear what the healer said?”

“Erm, but someone told me if we drink too much bitter our tongue will be numb and we can’t taste anything else, em, does brother Fang want to drink it? For Yinger?”

YiFang chuckled, thrusting the spoon of congee in BaiYing’s mouth.

“Hehe, why do I have to drink it? Xiao Ying the one who’s sick”

BaiYing’s mouth was bloated from the food that kept coming in, BaiYing frowned.

“Er, because Ying’er taking too much medicine, what if, Ying’er can’t taste other good food because Ying’er’s tongue is numb?”

YiFang chuckled at BaiYing’s adorable face.

“Hehehehe this cute little brother, just hang on there, soon you’ll be healthy enough and don’t need to drink any more medicine, just eat all the porridge, taking medicine and lie down, brother will prepare dinner for us”

“Can Ying’er help you Brother?” asked BaiYing.

YiFang shook his head.

“No need, Xiao Ying just take a good rest,” said YiFang, stroking BaiYing’s front hair gently while he saw that cute innocent face that made him keeps smiling.

....

The large palace horses grunted as they descended the steep path to the valley below the cliffs of the waterfall, LuoXiang and BeiYau finally arrived at the path where at the end of the road there was a cluster of huts not far beside the waterfall, they would check it out.

LuoXiang glanced at BeiYau to ask them all alert and keep their eyes wide open, anything could happen there.

“Be careful, Bei”

BeiYau nodded.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

...

While YiFang was still busy giving BaiYing the last spoon of his porridge when there was a loud knock on the door from outside. YiFang frowned, who came to visit at such an hour?

After all, who could be there, YiFang glanced at BaiYing, the young man grabbed his big sword that was on the table and got up from his chair towards the door.

BaiYing had a bad feeling, could it be that help was arriving so fast, or could it be that the attackers found them there?

BaiYing was still thinking when suddenly YiFang who had walked out of the door was pushed back very hard.

“Akhh!”

Several men dressed in black pushed in.

“Akh Ying’er!” YiFang pulled BaiYing’s hand out of the room while trying to block the sword attacks of two people in black who appeared out of nowhere and attacked, YiFang had a hard time because the two of them were so incessantly attacking.

Ting ting ting ting!

YiFang’s large sword withstood the attacks of two people at once, BaiYing lowered his body and ducked under the cot covering his head.

“Brother!” he exclaimed.

....

Meanwhile in the Valley of Mourned.

BeiYau and his men approached quickly after inspecting the uninhabited hut in front of them, LuoXiang was still sitting on his horse, looking at the surrounding, beautiful valley but no one dares to live there.

“Heh no, where is YingYing?”

....

The night came.

The hut where YiFang and BaiYing lived was almost completely torn apart, although YiFang managed to hold back the two attackers, he himself did not escape the slash wound on his hand. YiFang managed to kill one assailant who fell into the river and disappeared, while the other ran away with a severe wound at his leg, he probably won’t endure such a serious wound either, thought BaiYing, who was helping YiFang bandage the wound on his hand.

“Brother, is it still hurt?” asked BaiYing.

YiFang shook his head, he smiled, although his hands were full of blood he still tried to smile at BaiYing who looked worried and couldn’t hold back his tears.

“It’s not that hurt Ying’er, this is just a small wound, Xiao Ying just calms down, Brother Fang’s body is strong, this kind of wound is nothing.”

BaiYing wiped his tears, he was shocked because of the sudden attack, but why were those people able to find them there? Does that mean they can’t live there anymore?

“Ems, brother got hurt because of protecting Ying’er, I’m so sorry”

YiFang stroked BaiYing’s hair.

“Hey this stupid boy, what are you saying? Of course, brother will always protect you, don’t worry brother Fang martial arts is better now so I can protect you, Xiao Ying don’t be afraid okay?”

“Then, do we have to leave this place? They already found our hideouts ”

YiFang grabbed his wine bottle and drank a lot, at least it would ease his pain.

“Ekh, we will stay here, the attacker may not be able to survive his injury to report to their superiors, while until Xiao Ying recovers we will remain here”

“B-but brother, what if they come again”

YiFang held BaiYing’s hand.

“Hey little brother, as long as FangFang brother is here I won’t let them hurt you, Xiao Ying just has to trust me okay.”

BaiYing wiped his tears and nodded.

.....

“Ems, yes brother Fang, Ying’er trust you”
