The doctor touched his beard and shook his head, with an expression which made others’ heart sink.
Furrowing her eyebrows, Xie Mengxuan could not help raising her voice. “You’re a doctor. Please make it clear.”
The doctor hissed. “Well, although this gentleman bled a lot, there’s no wound which could cause him death. There are mainly scratches on his body, some old and some recent. However, there’s congestion in his hindbrain. I could prescribe some drug, but it depends whether he’s able to come to life.”
Her stomach knotted at his words. Xie Mengxuan took two steps forward and said in a low voice. “It depends? There’s congestion in his hindbrain? What do you mean?”
The doctor was in a haze and then waved his hand as a hint. “Please calm down, young lady. The brain is of great importance to human beings. The gentleman was hit hard on the hindbrain so that there’s congestion. He either sinks into a heavy slumber, or suffers sequelae after waking up. You’d better find his family since it takes long rather than two days to look after him.”
Frowning, Xie Mengxuan didn’t utter a single word. Gu Yusheng nodded and chimed in. “Well, thank you, doctor. Please prescribe some medicine.”
The doctor nodded so that Gu Yusheng asked a young monk for help to guide the doctor to another place.
Standing behind Xie Mengxuan, Gu Yusheng said: “Xuan, since you’ve heard that, you’d better consider the following plan.”
She slightly inclined her head with her pretty eyebrows furrowed, but she said nothing.
Gu Yusheng let out a sigh and left towards where the doctor had gone with Uncle Luo.
Xie Mengxuan opened the door and sat on the bed.
With a pale face, although Geng Zhishan was cleaned up, there was still a smell of blood from him.
Through observation, she found that Geng Zhishan also had a good appearance. Xie Mengxuan sighed and gently touched his head that had been adequately bandaged. “How did you become so piteous? A disaster survived is a blessing in store. I believe that you’ll be safe. However, I have something to deal with so that you have to live here for a period of time. I’ll find you an attendant. I hope that you would have waked up when I come back.”
She took off the bracelet from her wrist and put it on his. “Now you’ve put on my bracelet. If you wake up earlier, you could find me in the Xie family.”
The bracelet was a kind of jewelry suitable for women. It’s a little bit large for her wrist. As a man, Geng Zhishan was large boned, whose wrist was not thin. The bracelet was just worn on his wrist without extra space.
Looking at this ridiculous scene, Xie Mengxuan could not help giving a chuckle, but soon her smile faded away. Sitting at the bedside, she was accompanying him for a long time. When the young monk sent the medicine, she fed Geng Zhishan for herself.
After all was done, she let out a sigh of relief.
At lunchtime, Xie Mengxuan finally came out of the room. Standing in the porch, Gu Yusheng already heard her words before turning his head.
“Big Brother Gu, you’d better prepare yourself for our departure tomorrow. I’ll go to make arrangements.”
“Okay.”
Standing with his back towards her, Gu Yusheng subtly raised his lips. He tried to hold back his smile and gave a response while nodding.
Upset, Xie Mengxuan went to look for the abbot who seemed to treat everything with indifference.
