Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1098 - 1100: Carried Back

At the exact moment the rope snapped, they were truly terrified. Over here, they were still trying to hold onto the rope for the second-in-command, while over there, they were discussing how to get down to rescue the Big Boss, to find the Big Boss. Thankfully, they later heard the second-in-command’s voice, which confirmed that the Big Boss should be alright.

Xue Zhiyi lay there, waving his hand to indicate that he was fine. He was just too exhausted; climbing that cliff was really challenging, but fortunately, he’d made it up here without incident.

Seeing both the Big Boss and the second-in-command looking quite disheveled and probably exhausted, they quickly handed them the water bottles. "Big Boss, Second-in-command, you two quickly have some water and take a breather."

The second-in-command had decent stamina and wasn’t as battered as Xue Zhiyi. He just sat there and took the water bottle to drink.

But Xue Zhiyi didn’t have such good stamina. He was helped up before he could take the water bottle, and he gulped it down eagerly; he was truly parched.

After drinking, he handed the water bottle back and felt significantly better, a little more energetic, so he quickly took out the box from his chest.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, he opened the box.

"Big Boss, is this the herb?"

Xue Zhiyi nodded and then heard the brother exclaim in surprise, "This is so beautiful."

Xue Zhiyi smiled. He had been worried that The Poisonous Flower might have been damaged, but seeing it intact, he was relieved.

This flower is indeed beautiful, but it’s precisely such beautiful things that are highly poisonous.

As Xue Zhiyi covered the box, he said, "Let’s go back."

But at this moment, a brother cried out in surprise, "Big Boss, your hand?"

Only then did Xue Zhiyi realize that his hands were completely scraped from the climbing process, not just his hands; his entire body had suffered numerous impacts, and he was now in pain all over. It seemed he’d need proper healing upon returning, but he said, "It’s nothing!"

Seeing Xue Zhiyi like this, Yang Ming felt genuine gratitude towards him. Earlier, he had been terrified, thinking Xue Zhiyi had fallen. Fortunately, he was alright; otherwise, they would have felt extremely guilty. He sincerely thanked him, "Thank you, you’ve worked hard."

"No worries, let’s go." Xue Zhiyi stood up, planning to lead everyone back.

But at this moment, the second-in-command said to the third-in-command, "Old Third, carry the Big Boss back."

The reason for asking the third-in-command to carry the Big Boss back was entirely because, under the cliff, he knew what the Big Boss had gone through. He had crashed into the cliff more than a few times, and he probably didn’t have the strength to walk back.

Such treatment made Xue Zhiyi feel quite embarrassed, and he quickly refused, "No need, no need, I can walk myself."

But the third-in-command was stubborn and directly picked up Xue Zhiyi, "Big Boss, I’ll carry you." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

This action left Xue Zhiyi speechless, but thinking about how his whole body hurt and he indeed had no strength, he gave in and let him do it.

He was so tired that he fell asleep, unknowingly being carried back to the stockade.

As soon as they returned to the stockade, everyone in the stockade knew, including An’an and Xiaoxiao.

Upon hearing the news, An’an and Xiaoxiao rushed out, worried about their condition. As soon as they got to the entrance, they saw Xue Zhiyi being carried back.

This was serious? Both thought that something had happened to Xue Zhiyi. An’an was so anxious that tears welled up.

Seeing Yang Ming, Xiaoxiao quickly asked, "What happened?"
