Chapter 235 Are you sick again?
She thought about it and decided that burying such a dangerous thing was indeed the best solution.
After they talked for a while, she got up, dressed, washed up, and went out to eat.
When we walked out of the inn, the sun was already high in the sky. It was a nice day today.
Si He looked up at the sky, but when she saw the bright sunshine, she felt inexplicably dizzy again, but it was not serious. She retracted her gaze, squinted her eyes, and then she felt better.
Ning Ji turned around and saw that her face seemed a little paler. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you feeling unwell?"
She wanted to say she was fine, but after thinking it over, she said, "I was a little dizzy because of the glaring sunlight, but I'm fine now."
He frowned slightly and reached out to touch her forehead. It was a little cold and her pulse was a little strange.
"Go back and rest for a while? I'll buy you something to eat." he said.
Si He shook her head, took his arm, and said with a smile, "I'm fine, let's go."
Helplessly, he could only hold her hand and walk along the long street, "What do you want to eat?"
She looked around and pointed at a restaurant, "How about this one?"
The town is not big, and this long street is the most lively. Most of the good restaurants are also on this street. The restaurant she pointed out looks like a good one on this street.
"Okay." He always obeyed her requests and let her eat whatever she wanted.
When we walked into the restaurant, there were not many customers in the lobby and it was relatively quiet. After all, this was just a small town with a small population and could not be compared with restaurants in big cities.
Ning Ji found a quiet place and sat down at a table away from sunlight, and ordered a few of the restaurant's signature dishes.
Although there were few guests in the lobby, the conversation was quite loud, and almost all of them were gossiping about Zhaojiazhuang.
After all, the villa is not far from the town and is next to the official road. Passers-by can see the situation there. Something strange has happened in Zhaojiazhuang in the past two days, and the matter quickly spread in the town.
"Is Zhaojiazhuang really so evil?"
"That's right. When I came back from Ula City yesterday and passed by that villa, I was terrified. The whole villa was filled with ghostly fog. It was spooky even in broad daylight. We had no choice but to take a detour and didn't dare to get close."
"What immoral deeds did the master of the villa do to deserve such persecution?"
"I heard yesterday that there's an ancient tomb beneath the villa. Someone accidentally dug a hole in it, releasing the ghostly creatures underneath. That's how the villa became a haunted place. I don't know if it's true or not."
"No way, who told you this rumor?"
"A Taoist priest said so. He said he went to take a look yesterday and said that the haunted place was extremely dangerous and that it was definitely not something that could be caused by ordinary ghosts or evil spirits. He described it with full details."
"Hiss~ What should we do now?"
"I heard that they've invited a lot of Taoist priests to go catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, and they know what the situation is now."
……
There were all kinds of discussions all around, but Ning Ji and Si He remained indifferent to the discussions and ate quietly.
After dinner, the two paid the bill and left. The sun was already high in the sky, and golden light was everywhere. The sunlight was so hot that the temperature in the air also began to rise, and it was no longer as cool as in the morning.
Walking out of the restaurant and looking at the glaring sunlight outside, Si He narrowed her eyes, then lowered them, took Ning Ji's hand, and walked towards the inn.
As she stepped onto the street, bathed in the scorching sun, the burning sensation in the air became even stronger. She began to feel dizzy again, and her breathing became a little rapid. These symptoms were a bit like heatstroke.
Ning Ji, who was always paying attention to her, immediately noticed her abnormality and asked, "He He?"
He had just opened his mouth when Si He suddenly went limp. He hurried to support her, only to see her faint.
He hurriedly picked her up and ran towards the inn. Passersby around saw this scene and talked about it in surprise.
In the inn, Si He lay on the bed with a pale face and sweat on his forehead.
Ning Ji sat beside the bed, feeling her pulse with a serious expression. After a while, he withdrew his hand, took out a handkerchief, wiped the sweat off her face, and then gave her acupuncture.
After acupuncture, Si He's condition gradually stabilized and her breathing began to become weak, just like when she was sleeping before.
Ning Ji looked at the sleeping person and sighed softly.
Time passed little by little, and Si He slept until dusk.
She opened her eyes dazedly, and when she saw the bed curtains, she knew she was in an inn.
At this time, the windows in the guest room were closed and the curtains were drawn, not letting in any sunlight. There was only a candle lit on the table, and the light was very dim.
"woke up?"
Ning Ji's voice came from beside her. She turned around and saw him sitting on the edge of the bed, reaching out and touching her head.
Now her head was still a little dizzy and her throat was very dry. She opened her mouth and said, "I want to drink some water."
Perhaps because she was very thirsty, her voice was a little hoarse.
"Okay." He quickly poured her a glass of water, then helped her up and carefully fed her the water.
After drinking the water, she leaned lazily against him. His broad chest and the faint scent of medicine made her feel at ease. Recalling what happened before she fell into a coma, she asked, "Am I sick again?"
She described her physical condition as an illness, which she felt was quite appropriate.
Ning Ji put the cup aside, then hugged her in his arms, and comforted her in a low and gentle voice, "You're not sick, you're just tired."
"You're coaxing me again."
He chuckled and asked, "How do you feel now? Are you feeling unwell?"
After carefully feeling her body, she replied, "My head was still a little dizzy, and my body was a little weak, but then it was gone."
"You're going to feel uncomfortable seeing the scorching sun now, right?"
Hearing him ask this, she thought about it and nodded, "Well...will I be able to hide from the public from now on?"
She saw that all the curtains in the room were drawn, and she couldn't help feeling a little complicated.
Ning Ji gently stroked her back with his palm, his eyes deep and blazing with soothing intent. He said gently, "It's scorching hot in summer. If you can avoid the sun, then do so. Most girls don't like to go out in the sun. During this period, I will take care of your body and see how you are doing."
"it is good."
Next, the two stayed in the inn for another two days, and only left the town after her condition was completely stable.
However, since she now feels uncomfortable with the hot sunlight, she only goes out at night and stays in bed during the day.
On a moonlit night, the carriage slowly drove out of the town. The moonlight was so bright that the earth was clearly visible, making it more convenient for the carriage to travel at night.
The rhythmic sounds of horse hooves and wheels were particularly clear in the quiet night. After a while, the carriage disappeared into the night.
