Chapter 2098: Chapter 2096: Second Brother’s Calamity

Bai Ruozhu nodded, turned around and walked toward the Stone Gate. When she turned her head, she missed another Stone Gate and suddenly saw several bodies pierced like hedgehogs, which gave her a fright and made her shiver.

She had thought earlier, with the Stone Chamber being so dangerous, why didn’t these people hide in the passages on the sides to avoid it first? Now she saw the passages were even more dangerous.

She glanced at the other passage, which was already filled with long spikes, making it impossible for anyone to pass through. She didn’t know if the people who went to scout the way had returned.

”We should go one by one; the power of the array will surely be affected, and the space inside will get smaller and smaller, everyone be more careful.” One of the Barrier Masters from Wei Hall said.

”Okay, those farthest from the door go first, move quickly.” Bai Zepei also said.

The other three nodded, which was more comprehensive.

The first person rushed out quickly, and only then did Bai Ruozhu notice that her second brother was closest to the door, meaning he had to go last!

Her heart tightened because the moment that person moved, the pace of gathering in the room clearly sped up a lot.

”Hurry up!” The oldest Barrier Master shouted, and the second person hurriedly rushed out.

Then Bai Zepei nodded to him, ”It’s your turn.”

He hesitated for a moment, nodded, and rushed out.

Next was Bai Zepei, although the situation was very dangerous, timing was just right for him to get out, and the people who had come out were helping to hold up the Stone Gate, preventing it from falling.

Bai Zepei maintained his hand seals, quickly walking toward the Main Gate. At this moment, the hem of his robe was suddenly cut by a long, thin spike. Before he could react, the piece of fabric dangled down, and he just happened to step on it, tripping him.

”Second brother!” For a moment, Bai Ruozhu’s heart leapt into her throat; her eyes widened with bloodlust as the hand seal loosened when her second brother fell, and the spikes around began rushing in swiftly!

No, no, they’ve finally been able to live a good life, and her second brother has finally become a Barrier Master, how could he die here?

In that instant, Bai Ruozhu felt such heartache she couldn’t breathe, and she regretfully wanted to cut herself to pieces. If she hadn’t agreed to return to the Jiuli Clan, maybe her second brother wouldn’t have faced this trial!

”Husband!” Si Yihuan shouted, a point of light on her forehead suddenly flew out, but no one noticed this scene.

Immediately, a figure darted in like a ghost, grabbing Bai Zepei and rushing toward the Stone Gate, pushing him out.

The people at the door hurriedly pulled him out, but a tragic scream was heard.

It was Fen Jizhi who rushed in at the last moment to save her second brother! Only his qinggong skills could accomplish this!

Bai Ruozhu watched as Fen Jizhi, covered in a blood-red, burst into tears.

He first pushed her second brother out, but the spikes fell, piercing him, and as people outside pulled, much of his skin and flesh were torn by the spikes, leaving him badly mangled.

”He’s not dead yet, hurry and save him!” Jianqi quickly sealed acupoints on Fen Jizhi’s body to stop the bleeding.

Bai Ruozhu hurried to check and found that the side of his body close to the door was pulled out first, so it wasn’t pierced by spikes, but the right side of his body was pierced in many places.

Fortunately, the heart is on the left side.

She quickly fed Fen Jizhi a pill, asking Jianqi to lift him up, ”The light is poor here. Let’s continue treatment outside. I won’t let him die.”

Everyone hurried outside, while Bai Zepei saw Si Yihuan fainted, lovingly carrying her as he headed out.

As they all came out, the people at the gate couldn’t help but cheer, but seeing Fen Jizhi covered in blood, the cheers abruptly stopped.

”Jizhi! How did Jizhi get hurt?” Fen Jizhi’s father rushed over and seized his son.

Fen Jizhi’s current appearance was too tragic; the skin and flesh on his right arm and thigh had turned over, and it was unclear whether the injury reached the tendons.

”Lay him flat first, I’ll treat him.” Bai Ruozhu quickly took out her silver needles and homemade alcohol, then brought out the Catgut Sutures and suturing needle.

She first used her needlework to stop Fen Jizhi’s bleeding, then examined his qi channels. Fortunately, though his injuries were frightening, none were serious enough to damage the meridians.

After finishing the blood-staunching needlework, she cleaned Fen Jizhi with alcohol, the pain waking him.

He saw Bai Ruozhu holding a curved needle with thread ready to pierce him and was startled, ”Are you treating me like clothes to sew?”

Seeing he was still in the mood to joke, Bai Ruozhu relaxed, stuffed a yellow pill into his mouth. Her fingers brushed his tongue and lips inadvertently because she moved too fast. Fen Jizhi’s body tensed, and a strange feeling came over him. Before he could think about it more, the severe pain from the wounds made him put that strange feeling aside.

Fen Jizhi’s father asked worriedly, ”Can this work? Can human flesh be sewn like clothes?”

”This is a life-saving technique the Immortal taught my sister, which can help the wounds heal better and faster. It was previously used by the Danliang Army and is very helpful for healing external injuries.” Bai Zepei explained patiently.

He had a naturally cold personality, not fond of speaking much, but he was grateful Fen Jizhi saved him and felt he owed the Fen Family, so he patiently explained to Fen’s father.

Bai Ruozhu ignored the others, her hands already in motion.

”It doesn’t seem that painful,” Fen Jizhi said.

”I used a pain-relief needlework on you earlier, so it doesn’t hurt now. But when the needlework’s effect wears off, it will hurt a bit. The medicinal materials here aren’t enough; you’ll just have to bear it for now.” Bai Ruozhu’s hands were quick and steady, drawing everyone’s attention, watching her work curiously.

Suddenly, the tenth Elder said, ”I remember, the ancient books of the clan recorded this Suturing Technique. It was used by a woman in the clan, I remember her grandfather was a clan chief a hundred years ago, and her biological father was an emperor of an outside people. She later married someone from another tribe, right, it was the ancestor of the Fen Family!”

Someone curiously asked, ”Why didn’t that woman pass down the Suturing Technique to the clan?”

The tenth Elder continued, ”The ancient books recorded that she and her husband suddenly vanished into thin air, and later a National Master divined that they went to another distant world.”

”Then how did the Fen Family remain?” The curious person continued to ask.

”After more than ten years, their child suddenly appeared, found the clan, and later became the Fen Family.” The tenth Elder said.

Bai Ruozhu listened as she sutured, guessing that the woman in the Elder’s story was her ”fellow countrywoman,” the distant place she vanished to must be the modern world?

Her heart skipped a beat, does that mean she could also go back?

But quickly she denied this thought in her heart, she has family, a lover, a child, and friends here, she can’t bear to leave, even if there’s a chance to return to the modern world, she doesn’t want to go back.
