Chapter 0006: Cave Camp
There is actually fresh water here, how wonderful! Not only have I found a cave to take shelter in, but I have also found the most scarce resource, fresh water.
Ye Mo quickly focused his attention on the road beneath his feet, racing towards the small hill, eager to find the cave and set down the woman in the green dress
The kick from the black-clad warrior is exceedingly fierce, capable of killing a person instantly
He is digging in the jungle
Ye Mo was delighted
He recalled that when he first arrived on the island, he saw a small hill nearby. It was easy to find caves in the hilly area. The caves were certainly much safer than being in the jungle. If there were no caves, he would dig one out to create a hiding place.
Most importantly, he only brought a total of 2 packs of healing herbs, and once used, they are gone
Ye Mo gazed at the only remaining packet of healing herbs in the package, feeling a deep ache in his heart
After applying the medicine, re-tie the green-clad woman's chest binding and properly dress her in the golden silk armor and garments
Two packets of second-grade healing herbs would be enough for him to work as a laborer in the inn of the royal city for several months
The black-clad warrior was struck in the throat by the green-clad woman with a single sword thrust, leaving virtually no chance of survival; if he were still alive, it would indeed be an extraordinary occurrence
With the strength of a mid-stage Ye Mo warrior, a height of several zhang would not cause him any harm, especially considering that the ground is covered with a large amount of dry branches, leaves, and soft mud
Although he clearly knew that the injuries on the green-clad woman's body were serious, he felt it inappropriate to apply medicine through her clothing
Ye Mo slowly unfastened the green outer garment of the woman in the green shirt, revealing a layer of delicate and intricately woven golden armor beneath. After he clumsily undid the golden armor, he was surprised to find a pink corset inside.
The burning moss ignited the withered branches and leaves
This green-clad woman has surprisingly not been killed, it seems she is entirely fortunate due to that golden silk armor, which can be considered a stroke of luck; otherwise, she should have perished alongside that black-clad warrior.
Although he has practiced martial arts for ten years, he has never fought against other martial artists, except for the fish and shrimp in the river
The beach is definitely not an option; that little demon crab might still be there
Ye Mo felt uneasy in his heart
Ye Mo hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should just take the Blood Red Vine and turn to leave. After all, he did not know these two martial artists, one dead and the other unconscious; their lives and deaths had nothing to do with him, and there was no need for him to get involved in this conflict among martial artists
Can he not feel pain
Ye Mo could not help but feel somewhat hesitant, constrained and restricted
The jungle is also not a viable option, as there are no defenses to be maintained. One may be attacked at any moment by wild beasts such as venomous snakes
Ye Mo directly took the three inches of red blood vine from the hands of the black-clad warrior, saying, "I will dig a grave for you to bury it, so that it won't be gnawed by wild beasts and leave you without a complete corpse! This red blood vine can be considered as the labor fee for your burial!"
Ye Mo was momentarily taken aback.
Ye Mo took out a packet of healing herbs from his bag, opened it, and mixed it with the water from the hole to form a green paste. He evenly applied it to the dark bruise on the left chest of the woman in the green shirt to prevent the injury from worsening
Thinking of this, he jumped down from between the dense treetops
Once she wakes up, I need to discuss the matter of the herbal medicine with her! I saved her life. The herb she has, the Blood-red Vine, I should at least receive half of it! No, it should be a large portion given to me!
The cave is now shrouded in darkness, and it is uncertain whether there are any toxic substances inside
Unfastening the pink corset, immediately two white mounds appear | The tender jade rabbits sway back and forth before his eyes
The woman in the green shirt moaned in pain a few times, yet remained unconscious.
Ye Mo sighed softly, buried the black-clad warrior, and then walked in front of the woman in the green dress
He did not think too much about it, carrying the woman in green to the inner side of the cave, next to the pile of bonfire, to examine her injuries.
Ye Mo did not rush in
Finally, before the sun set below the horizon, Ye Mo discovered a cave at the base of a cliff on a hillside.
The cave is not deep, approximately 10 zhang. Inside, it is spacious and flat, resembling a large stone chamber. There are cracks on the rock walls, from which water continuously drips down, forming a small puddle. The water in the small puddle seeps along the stone crevices on the ground, its destination unknown.
Thinking of this, Ye Mo picked up the unconscious woman in green, feeling the softness of her delicate body in his arms, and his face turned slightly red
Now it is settled; half of his healing herbs have been wasted on this green-clad woman
He is a commoner from the royal city of Wuguo, who has spent his life busy with odd jobs and practicing martial arts, having little interaction with girls, and has never dealt with such a beautiful woman as found at https://mhetushu.com.com
He strode quickly to the front of the black-clad warrior and extended his right hand to feel for breath
I am here to save lives, I cannot worry about so much anymore
Fortunately, the woman in the green shirt possesses a seventh-grade blood-red vine herb, which can be used as compensation
Ye Mo sighed softly in his heart
Ye Mo pondered for a moment
Ye Mo was desperately muttering under his breath
This healing herb has the effects of stopping bleeding, resolving bruises, and promoting blood circulation However, this healing herb cannot be used for refining The refining herbs are too expensive for him to afford
Ye Mo's face immediately turned as red as if he had been drinking strong liquor, and he quickly averted his gaze, not daring to look any longer. Throughout his life, he had never had such close contact with a young woman, let alone any intimate physical contact.
Before rescuing the woman in the green shirt, he had one more task to accomplish, which was to bury the body of the black-clad warrior
The woman in the green shirt managed to prop herself up with difficulty. Upon seeing the black-clad warrior lying dead on the ground, she felt a sense of relief in her heart. Finally, she could no longer hold on and fainted on the ground.
The storm that occurred the night before last saw over 1,000 martial artists jumping into the sea to survive. This black-clad martial artist was fortunate enough to drift to the island and survive, yet today he died in the struggle for the Blood Red Vine. This fellow can be considered extremely unfortunate
Ye Mo held a torch made of a dry branch, entered the cave, and carefully examined the surroundings, gaining a clear understanding of the cave's condition
Ye Mo crushed the last pack of healing herbs into a green paste and applied it to his back.
Fortunately, there are no other people paying attention here
However, the woman in the green shirt, who was lying on the ground, must have sustained serious injuries. If no one comes to her aid, she would undoubtedly die if a venomous snake were to appear from anywhere in the jungle. One cannot just stand by and watch a life perish right before their eyes
Ye Mo felt a slight sense of balance in his heart; otherwise, receiving a bag of healing herbs for free would have been unbearable.
There is currently a severely injured and unconscious female warrior who needs medical attention; it is essential to find a safe location.
Ye Mo was not worried that saving the woman in the green dress would pose a threat to him. Given her severe injuries, she probably could not even lift a sword. If she did not receive timely medical attention, as a seriously injured martial artist, she would likely die in this jungle by the end of the night
Before setting sail, he sold all the family properties of the old residence and obtained one hundred taels of silver. He spent fifty taels of gold to purchase a ticket for a merchant ship and over forty taels to buy a fine Qingfeng sword. The remaining few taels of silver were entirely used to buy these two packages of healing herbs, in case of emergencies
Soon, a roaring bonfire rose up at a distance of ten feet from the cave entrance
Ye Mo's gaze fell upon the Blood-red Vine in the hands of the woman in the green shirt, contemplating how much Blood-red Vine would make this "transaction" worthwhile
He was previously shot by the "Water Arrow" of the juvenile crab, and his internal injuries have not yet healed, so he cannot leave any hidden dangers
The injury is quite evident; at that time, the black-clad warrior delivered a flying kick to the left chest of the woman in the green dress, causing her to suffer severe injuries and lose consciousness. As for the extent of the injury, it remains unclear whether her rib was fractured.
As the bonfire rises, the cave is illuminated
Quickly, a pit barely large enough to accommodate the black-clad warrior was dug. After dragging the black-clad warrior into the pit, it was subsequently filled in with soil, dead branches, and leaves.
Ye Mo shook his head and withdrew his hand
I looked up for a moment, uncertain whether there would be wild beasts lurking in the jungle
Ye Mo set the green-clad woman down near the cave entrance. He then found some dry moss, withered branches, and a few large dead tree limbs nearby, and proceeded to start a fire.
With the experience from yesterday, he was much more skilled this time in using the method of friction fire.
It is not that he is stingy; for a common martial artist like him, who hails from the humble origins of a martial kingdom, being frugal and careful with expenses has always been a way of life. A few taels of silver for a bag of herbs is not an insignificant amount
The entrance of this cave is approximately several zhang high and two zhang wide, and it appears to be quite deep inside
Indeed, it has run out of gas
Cannot see ... ... . This herbal ointment seems a bit soft and smooth
This was within his expectations
As for the medicine and the application, whether the injuries of the woman in the green shirt can improve is left to fate
On this solitary island in the East China Sea, healing herbs are exceedingly rare
Ye Mo glanced sideways and caught sight of a dark bruise on the left chest of the woman in the green shirt, a clear blood clot, and could not help but gasp in shock
A beautiful face appeared before his eyes. The woman in the green dress had ample breasts and a curvaceous figure, with long legs and a slender waist, making her a striking beauty. At this moment, she lay on the ground, gravely injured and unconscious, her chest rising and falling irregularly, which added to her vulnerability.
