Chapter 297 Untitled
"hopeless."

"From the beginning, we had no hope."

"No matter how hard we struggle, the final outcome is already determined."

A familiar yet strange noble voice came again and again from the depths of the mysterious and magnificent palace, with a vague and lasting echo.

"?!!"

Wang Yao woke up suddenly. As usual, his whole body was drenched in sweat. His wet hair stuck to his forehead, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Tsk, this dream again!
Wang Yaocai habitually let out a long breath, covered his aching chest, and sat up with difficulty. When he saw the cool and dark stone walls around him, he found that he was in an unknown cave.

It was already night time, but it was very bright outside the cave. The moon was bright in the sky tonight, and the bright moonlight almost dyed the entire canyon silver-white. So even if you look out from the cave, you can clearly guess where you are through the scene outside the cave.

wild area!

Why is he here?

Just when he was still puzzled, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly came from the darkness behind Wang Yao without any warning.

"you're awake?"

Wang Yao turned his head, narrowed his eyes slightly, and slowly began to adapt to the darkness. He vaguely saw a graceful silhouette sitting deep in the cave.

Although he couldn't see the face clearly, Wang Yao quickly guessed that the other party was a heavy crossbow worth thousands of gold based on the faint sweet smell in the air.

"Why are we here?" Wang Yao asked. His voice was very hoarse, and his lips seemed a little dry and cracked because he had not had water for a long time.

But just after he finished asking the question, Wang Yao's shoulders suddenly trembled. He seemed to remember something, the life-and-death fight on the road, and the last moment before he was knocked unconscious by Dian Wei's axe.
"Is the laning phase over? 2da. How's Sima Yi?!" Wang Yao, who was originally extremely weak, suddenly became a different person. He stood up from half-kneeling and asked urgently.

In the darkness, the pair of eyes that seemed even brighter because of the moonlight outside the cave, after glancing at Wang Yao strangely, said slowly: "You are really stupid. All your injuries are almost all caused by that newcomer from Wei State. Now you still care whether he is dead or alive? Take care of yourself first."

Before Sun Shangxiang could finish her words, she was interrupted by Wang Yao's impatient shout: "Tell me quickly!"

After the high-pitched roar, the empty cave suddenly became quiet. In the dim light, the only sound could be heard was Wang Yao's heavy breathing due to his injuries.

Sun Shangxiang pursed her lips secretly, obviously unhappy. In Dongwu, no one had ever dared to yell at her like that since she was a child!
But after a moment of silence, she surprisingly did not explode, but just said unhappily: "That person is not dead. After you fainted, I dealt with Dian Wei, and was about to deal with the newcomer together when the reinforcements from Wei arrived. Cai Wenji is a very troublesome auxiliary hero, and Sima Yi's skills are very strange and his mobility is strong, so I simply took you away from the front line first."

At this point, Sun Shangxiang's voice sounded even more dissatisfied: "It's not easy to get rid of the enemy. I went through so much trouble to carry you here for refuge, but you woke up and started yelling. If I had known, I would have let you be captured by the Wei people!"

As if sensing Sun Shangxiang's vaguely resentful gaze, Wang Yao slowly calmed down. So, was he saved by Sun Shangxiang?

I felt a little apologetic at the moment: "I'm sorry, I just lost my composure, thank you for saving me."

"Forget it. I can't bear it!" Sun Shangxiang did not accept Wang Yao's behavior of apologizing after the fact, but after all, she was straightforward by nature, so her tone was much better.

"Luckily you woke up in time. I was just thinking about blowing a pit to bury you, but you've been lying there for a long time without a breath. It's really unbelievable. Your health was clearly at the bottom, but how come it's recovered to half now? Are you a soldier or a hero? No, even if you are a hero, it's impossible to have such a weird phenomenon!"

"My lord, please consider me as a lucky man who has been blessed by heaven." After hearing what Sun Shangxiang said, Wang Yao realized that the resurrection armor on his body, which originally had a faint blue luster, had now turned into a dead gray.

Dian Wei's last axe had definitely killed him! If it weren't for the two life-saving equipment, the resurrection armor and the famous sword, he would have died twice in the battle on the road. This is enough to show that even if he now has the [Ten God Equipment], when facing a special existence like a hero, he may not be able to retreat 100% unscathed!

Of course, facing Sun Shangxiang's curious questioning, Wang Yao simply answered vaguely. He was not yet familiar with her to the point of telling her everything.

So, after apologizing, Wang Yao looked around in the dimness and changed the subject, asking, "Why don't you build a bonfire? It's very damp in the cave, and it's not good to stay in it for too long."

As a result, as soon as Wang Yao said this, Sun Shangxiang refused to do it: "Hey, you are asking for more? Do you still want me to serve you?! Lighting a fire? In Wu, these trivial matters are all done by the servants in my mansion, okay!"

After all, the eldest lady is known for her hot temper. Tolerating you once is already a great favor. How can I tolerate you again and again?

However, although Sun Shangxiang seemed to be eager to hit Wang Yao with a bullet, his words had a different meaning when heard by Wang Yao.

To put it bluntly, it means that the young lady has been spoiled since childhood and can't even get angry?

Wang Yao did not point out Sun Shangxiang's hypocritical behavior on the spot. People with sharp words but soft hearts will never tolerate others to expose their secrets, so he stood up silently, endured the injuries and walked out of the cave.

About half an hour later, Wang Yao came back, but he had a lot more stuff on him: bundles of firewood, fur blankets cut from wild monsters, wild monster meat, some wild fruits, and water in bamboo tubes. The wild area was vast and boundless, and the last thing they lacked was these materials for camping, which surprised Sun Shangxiang.

The girl just thought that Wang Yao left because he couldn't stand her bad temper!
At this moment, Wang Yao had already stretched out a hand towards her: "Sir, do you have any bullets? Can you lend me one?"

Sun Shangxiang was stunned for a moment, and as she pulled out a gleaming silver bullet from her waist, she asked, "What do you want to do?"

"Make a fire." Wang Yao took the bullet and began to tinker with it. At this point, Wang Yao could no longer give a perfect explanation to convince himself. Anyway, this alien world was full of wonders. It seemed to be only the era of cold weapons, but some of the heroes' weapons had technological weapons that surpassed this era, such as Sun Shangxiang's artillery and her bullets.
But no matter what, as long as it is a bullet, it must contain smokeless gunpowder, there is no doubt about that.

Sure enough, after unscrewing the bullet, Wang Yao poured out a small pile of black gunpowder from it. Then he stretched out his right hand wearing the [Blood Devil's Wrath] and snapped his fingers lightly.

chap!
Along with a little spark, the gunpowder was ignited, and soon a bright bonfire burned in the cave. The comfortable warmth instantly dispelled the darkness and the uncomfortable dampness in the cave.

In fact, this is just a little trick. To put it simply, Wang Yao's current strength is extraordinary. He can create sparks on the iron gloves by snapping his fingers with a little force. This is not difficult for him, and these sparks alone are enough to ignite the gunpowder.

"You are quite good at it." Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but say with some admiration.

Anyway, for the eldest daughter, who was used to a life of luxury and having servants take care of everything in her life, she had never thought of using this method to make a fire.

"It's nothing." Wang Yao turned around and smiled. It was not until this time that he realized that Sun Shangxiang had one hand covering her right leg, and blood was oozing out from between her green fingers from time to time.

The bright red blood formed a sharp contrast with the girl's snow-white fingers, which was shocking.

"Are you injured?" No wonder Sun Shangxiang had been sitting in the cave and hadn't come out since just now. It turned out that her leg was injured.

Sun Shangxiang said nonchalantly, "It's just a minor injury, no big deal."

However, looking at the pool of blood under Sun Shangxiang's legs and her pale face reflected by the orange-red firelight, Wang Yao did not think so.

"Do you need me to bandage your wound?" Wang Yao pretended to step forward, because based on her character, he estimated that the young lady might not even know how to bandage a wound.

"No need. If I say it's okay, then it's okay." However, the proud Sun Shangxiang did not appreciate it.

Wang Yao sighed slightly as he looked at Sun Shangxiang, who was obviously soft-hearted. Normally, he would not want to care about it anymore, but after all, Sun Shangxiang saved his life, and he did not want to owe this girl anything.

So after rolling his eyes, Wang Yao smiled and said, "If you leave it alone, it will get infected and rot. Aren't you afraid of bugs growing in the wound?"

"Living insects?!" Even though she was a fearless young lady, she was still just a young girl after all. She was also afraid of disgusting animals like insects. Her face turned slightly pale, and she stared at Wang Yao with half-belief and half-doubt and asked, "Are you kidding me?"

What about it?
What kind of weird catchphrase is this? Does it mean that the young lady is really scared?
Thinking of this, Wang Yao suddenly found it a little funny: "I'm not kidding you, I'm a soldier. I've seen too many injured soldiers on the battlefield who didn't treat their wounds in time, which eventually led to maggots festering in their wounds, and even serious cases where they needed amputation."

Listening to Wang Yao's vivid description, Sun Shangxiang raised her eyebrows, feeling a little nervous: "Then show me quickly."

Seeing that Sun Shangxiang finally compromised, Wang Yao stepped forward with a wry smile. It was indeed not an easy task to serve a young lady from a wealthy family. Even helping her required coaxing and deceiving!

Wang Yao half-knelt down when he got close to her. He looked at the deep bloody wound on Sun Shangxiang's thigh, frowned slightly, and then began to help Sun Shangxiang take off the boots on her right leg.

It was unknown what sharp weapon had injured the young lady, but the wound on her leg was extremely deep. Fortunately, the aorta in her leg was not injured.

"You're injured so badly and you still say you're okay?" Wang Yao looked up at Sun Shangxiang in disbelief. He felt that this girl not only betrayed her teammates (Zhang Fei), but there might be something wrong with her own brain too.

"It's no big deal." Sun Shangxiang turned her head away and muttered unclearly.

Perhaps it was the first time that her private parts were touched by a member of the opposite sex. Sun Shangxiang's delicate body was obviously trembling uncontrollably. But strangely enough, she did not feel disgusted at this moment. When she looked down at Wang Yao who was carefully cleaning her wound with clean water, for some reason, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, like a turbulent lake that could not calm down. She didn't know where to put her hands.

However, this wonderful feeling that made Sun Shangxiang feel a little overwhelmed was soon overshadowed by the pain in her thigh.

"Ah, be gentler."

“It’s already very light!”

“Hiss! It hurts, it hurts, I told you to be gentler! Can you do it?!”

Perhaps it was because she had been spoiled since she was a child and could not endure any hardship. While Wang Yao was helping her clean the wound, Sun Shangxiang kept crying out in pain.

It is normal for girls to be afraid of pain, but Wang Yao slowly began to be unable to bear it!
Sun Shangxiang's body temperature was already very high, burning hot, but the worst part was that this young lady's scream had a dizzying effect?!
No matter how strong his mind is, he is ultimately just a human being with emotions and desires!

Finally, Wang Yao, who was already feeling a little dizzy, stopped and looked up at Sun Shangxiang and suggested, "My Lord, could you please stop yelling so loudly?"

Wang Yao couldn't find the right adjective for the last words.

"What?" Sun Shangxiang was stunned for a moment, but looking at Wang Yao with an extremely unnatural expression, she paused for three seconds, and then a playful smirk soon appeared on her pretty, fair face.

"Wow, what? You can't stand it?"
