When dawn broke, the sky was getting brighter, and the few remaining stars gradually faded into the twilight and disappeared into the blue sky.

On a protruding stone platform on the cliff, Gu Yu woke up from a coma, her mouth was full of the bitter taste of medicinal juice.

He frowned and opened his eyes in confusion, surrounded by steep rock walls.

When consciousness came back, Gu Yu woke up immediately, and he and Xi'er fell off the cliff together...

"Xi'er..." Gu Yu shouted in a hoarse voice, trying to sit up with his hands on the ground, but found that there was a quilt covering him.

And, he heard even breathing from beside him.

Gu Yu covered the sore spot on her waist, turned sideways and reached out to grab Qi Qingxi's wrist, checking her pulse.

With a steady pulse, he breathed a sigh of relief, continued to lie down, hugged her in his arms, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

Gu Yu remembered that he lost consciousness after the two of them fell on this stone platform yesterday, and then he didn't know what happened, even the wound on his body was bandaged.

Or is it that Gu Liang has already found him?

Anyway, at least they're safe now.

Suddenly, a person was slowly suspended from the cliff above, and he raised his eyes to watch the person fall on the stone platform step by step.

"Are you awake? I'm here to take your pulse." Zhang Jingshi whispered to Gu Yu when he saw that Qi Qingxi hadn't woken up yet.

Gu Yu couldn't understand Zhang Jingshi's series of words. He gently put Qi Qingxi down from his arms, stood up straight with his hands on the ground and asked, "Your Excellency?"

Seeing Gu Yu asking this question, Zhang Jingshi was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he must not have been able to hear them talking since he was in a coma yesterday, so he introduced himself to Gu Yu.

"When I was in Zhangjing, I was a doctor from Xichuan County in the front. I happened to come to this cliff to collect medicine yesterday. I heard your wife call for help and said that you were injured and unconscious. I came to have a look."

So, he thought that Gu Liang had already found them. It seems that the quilt, the food next to him, and the wound on his body were all helped by this Doctor Zhang.

Gu Yu thanked him: "Thank you, Doctor Zhang, for saving your life. Gu will definitely repay you."

Zhang Jingshi waved his hand nonchalantly, his master often taught him that doctors should be benevolent, he saves people from the heart, so why should he repay.

He took off the small bamboo basket from his back, took out a cloth bag and several bamboo tubes from it, and said, "These are food and water for you. I'll take your pulse again, and then I'll find someone from your village." .Ningyuan Village is in the next county, so I guess I won’t be able to come back until the afternoon.”

As the magistrate of a prefecture, Gu Yu naturally knew where Xichuan County was. It turned out that they had come so far away.

They didn't go back all night, Gu Liang and the others probably sent someone out to look for him, and they may not be able to find him if they go to Ningyuan Village to look for him at this time.

Gu Yu felt that this person was willing to venture down the cliff to rescue them again and again, so he should be a trustworthy person.

He took off a small square jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Zhang Jingshi: "You don't need to go so far to Ningyuan Village, please give this private seal to Mr. Zhou, the magistrate of Xichuan County, and he will send someone to rescue us."

Zhang Jingshi responded, and then stretched out his hand to feel Gu Yu's pulse.

"The situation is very stable. You don't need your wife to give you medicine every half an hour. She should have given you medicine last night without sleep. She took good care of you and you recovered so well. " Zhang Jingshi took out another bamboo tube from the bamboo basket and handed it to Gu Yu, "This is my stewed ginseng and wolfberry soup. Drinking it can replenish some energy and blood."

After taking the pulse, he changed Gu Yu's wound medicine again before leaving.

Gu Yu lay back again, continued to hold Qi Qingxi in her arms and tightened her arms, and whispered very gently in her ear: "It turns out that Xi'er took care of me all night, thank you for your hard work."

Qi Qingxi in his arms suddenly let out a "huh" in his sleep, and rubbed his cheek against his chest.

Gu Yu reached out and gently stroked the ends of her hair, recalling what happened yesterday, she felt lucky that she was fine.

And that Wu Tao, Gu Yu squinted his eyes, and there was no need to keep him after this time.

Suddenly, there was a sound of birds singing in the forest under the cliff, which woke Qi Qingxi from her sleep. She opened her eyes in a daze, and met a pair of gentle eyes.

Gu Yu woke up!

Qi Qingxi immediately sat up excitedly, stretched out the back of his hand to test the temperature on his forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was nothing abnormal.

She looked at him silently for a while, watching, tears streaming down her face.

Regardless of the pain in her waist, Gu Yu sat up nervously, reached out to wipe her tears, and said softly, "Why are you crying so well?"

"Don't, you still have injuries on your waist, and it's going to burst." Qi Qingxi cried and helped Gu Yu to lie down.

Gu Yu followed the trend and pulled her to lie down with him: "It's my fault that made you worry."

Qi Qingxi buried her head in his neck: "It's my fault that hurt you and made you fall off the cliff." The more she spoke, the more uncomfortable she became, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

Seeing her crying so much, Gu Yu was heartbroken, reached out and lifted her face, and kissed her falling tears: "As long as you are safe and sound, these are trivial things to me."

"You don't even know that you almost... You've been in a coma for almost a day and a night, is this a trivial matter?" Qi Qingxi didn't dare to say the word "death", she raised her eyes to look at him, and said seriously, "I don't want you to have trouble. "

Gu Yu hugged her tightly, resting her chin lightly on her hair: "I won't let anything happen to me."

In the past, life and death were not something worth worrying about for him, and if he were to die in the third watch, he would never delay until the fifth watch.

But now, he wants to live a good life and be with her.

Suddenly, he heard the girl lying on his body speak.

"Gu Yu, will I marry you?"

Gu Yu held her by the shoulders and lifted her slightly, his eyes sparkled, and he looked at her in disbelief: "What did Xi'er say?"

Qi Qingxi got up from him embarrassingly, sat with his back to him, and stammered: "I...I mean..."

After yesterday's accident, she was deeply moved. She remembered a sentence she heard before, and she didn't know which would come first, tomorrow or the accident.

In life, every moment is extremely precious, she doesn't want to go on with Gu Yu in such a vague way.

"I mean I want to..."

"Xi'er." Gu Yu interrupted her, her Adam's apple twitched slightly, and she sat up slowly, "Let's get married."

Although he really wanted to hear her say that she wanted to marry him again, he couldn't bear to keep her waiting for his answer.

Qi Qingxi's heart was filled with joy, his eyes were bent and his lips were curled up and up, he turned and leaned in front of him, clasped his neck tightly with both hands, put it next to his ear, and said in a very brisk voice: " good."

Then she quickly pecked the corner of Gu Yu's lips lightly. Gu Yu supported the back of her head neatly and gently deepened the kiss.

Suddenly, a gust of valley breeze mixed with the faint fragrance of grass and trees blows across the hills and blows into the distance.
