Highly Skilled Doctor: My Lord Wife - C235
“Father is doing well!” The deep voice was light and emotionless.
However, after hearing his reply, Gu Qingyi felt relieved.
At that moment, her entire body was suspended in the air. She had thought that she would really be thrown out, and she was truly frightened. She hadn’t thought that at such a crucial moment, her father would actually throw himself at her, disregarding everything to save her.
“It’s good that Daddy is fine.”
Gu Qingyi had never felt such a sour feeling in her heart before.
Actually, he was already safe. However, he was curled up in his father’s embrace, listening to his father’s powerful heartbeat. He didn’t know why, but he just didn’t want to stand up.
“Prince, Prince, Eldest Miss, are you alright?”
“Your Royal Highness, Eldest Miss!”
Soon, the guards who had stabilized their horses came over and helped the two of them up from the ground.
Many horses were startled by the strong wind. Although it had stopped them, they still snorted uneasily and looked around in panic.
“It’s good that everyone is fine. I’m afraid a sandstorm is coming. Quickly find a place to hide!” Gu Yannan was very familiar with this area. Although it was not a season where many sandstorms occurred, it was not a season where there would be sandstorms. They were afraid that they had encountered a sandstorm this time, and from the looks of it, they could not continue on their journey. They had to find a place to hide.
Frowning, Gu Yinian’s eyes flashed with a trace of irritation.
The thing he disliked the most was encountering a sandstorm. Although he had encountered this sandstorm many times and knew how to save his life in the sandstorm, but … He had always liked to plan things out. This sandstorm was clearly not part of his plan …
Judging from the situation just now, I’m afraid this sandstorm isn’t small.
If it was just him alone, he would not care at all and would definitely continue to travel. At most, he would just wait for the sandstorm to arrive and then he would just dig a hole to hide in.
But there were so many of them right now. It seemed like they needed to make preparations as soon as possible.
“Yes sir!”
“Yes sir!”
Those who were able to follow Gu Yinian were all people who could be used by his side. Hearing that there was a sandstorm, everyone’s face became solemn, and they quickly scattered in preparation.
Only Gu Qingyi was still confused, “Daddy, what is a sandstorm?”
In the past, Gu Qingyi had wandered outside with the Ghost Teacher, but she had never encountered such harsh weather. This was the first time she heard of a sandstorm.
To be honest, the gust of wind carrying the yellow sand had made her jump. At this moment, when she heard Gu Yinian talk about sandstorms, although she had never seen one, she had a bad feeling about it.
“A sandstorm is like a fierce wind sweeping up sand. When the time comes, the sky will be filled with sandstorms. If the wind is a bit stronger, you will get lost. If it is stronger, we can all be swept away.” Gu Yinian helped to remove the things on the horse as he tried to explain to Gu Qingyi. The weather was bad. It was a good season. As the weather got hotter, the scariest part was still to come.
It was precisely because of this terrible weather that people were unable to live in peace …
Ever since the war more than ten years ago, many people had gradually forgotten about this place. Very few people would come here.
“Then, then what should we do?” Gu Qingyi was frightened to the point that her face turned pale. Although she had never seen him before, she also realized the seriousness of his words. At the same time, she thought of another person: “That’s right, Master, Father, what about Master? Should I light the signal detonator to notify him? ”
That’s right, how could she forget, she was currently together with her father, and no matter what, her father was very familiar with this area. With him here, even if there was some trouble, he could get through it, but as for her master, although her master was used to going to the mountains and the seas, this was still the border, and it was his first time here. Now that he wasn’t around, what would he do if he encountered a sandstorm?
Thinking of this, Gu Qingyi hurriedly tried to ignite the signal detonator.
There were three bamboo tubes on the length of a finger, which were unique to the Ghost Teacher. When ignited, they could fly up to a height of twenty to thirty meters, and could be seen from hundreds of miles away. After leaving the pass, the ghostly teacher had specifically given it to Gu Qingyi before parting with them. He had repeatedly reminded her not to look for him, since there was nothing of importance to it. He was used to living in the wild, and what he could not stand the most was all kinds of restrictions and a routine life. He liked to run around by himself, and with his abilities, no one would worry about him. Of course, even if he wanted to stop them, he was afraid that he would not have the ability to do so.
But at this moment …
“Don’t worry, it might not be that serious.”
Seeing that Gu Qingyi was about to ignite the signal detonator, Gu Yan Nian immediately stopped her. “Ghost Teacher is not a child. Don’t worry, he’ll naturally know how to protect himself.”
Yes, the Ghost Teacher was not an ordinary person. Although this was his first time here, Gu Yinian believed that he definitely had a way to protect himself. At this point in time, it was best not to ignite the signal detonator.
“But, but this is also my first time here. I’ve never seen a sandstorm before.”
Even though Gu Yinian had said this, Gu Qingyi was still worried. She naturally knew about her master’s ability, as he was a person who loved to run around everywhere. After following him for ten years, she had encountered many dangers and almost lost her life many times, but in the end, she was still able to survive.
But this time was different. This was the first time he and his master had come here, and he had never even heard of a sandstorm before. Even if his master had, he might not have seen it. If there was someone else by his side, she wouldn’t have been so worried, but right now, it was only her master. And based on her understanding of her master, her master was a good person, everything being just that he was too curious. I’m afraid …
“No, I still …” Thinking about it, she was still worried. Her master had always had a heart of innocence. To put it harshly, she didn’t have a heart of gold. It was good that he was skilled in medicine, otherwise she would have suspected that he had survived so many years.
He naturally had his own abilities, but …
“Qingyi, don’t be rash. Listen to me.” With a slight frown, a trace of displeasure flashed across Gu Yinian’s eyes. He didn’t know why he felt so uncomfortable seeing his daughter worrying about others more than himself. It was just that, forget it, that person had raised her for so many years. If it wasn’t for that person, she probably wouldn’t have been able to survive.
Alright, he would never admit that he was envious, jealous, and hateful.
Gu Yan Nian, who was pulling Gu Qingyi’s hand, looked at her sternly: “Look at the situation now, I’m afraid that the sandstorm will come at any moment, and your master is still nowhere to be found. The weather here is weird, it’s ten miles away from each other, so maybe your master didn’t encounter a sandstorm at all. If you suddenly ignite this signal flare right now, your master will think that you’ve met with some mishap and rush over here. What if you just happen to encounter a sandstorm? ”
Gu Yinian looked at Gu Qingyi very seriously, his face devoid of any room for negotiation.
Amongst those who were running for their lives, he was the most familiar with the weather. In this sort of situation, it was forbidden for him to make mistakes.
Although he wished to be alone with his daughter, his words were not entirely unreasonable.
Sure enough, after Gu Qingyi heard this, her expression also became serious. She understood that Gu Yinian’s words weren’t to scare her, but …
“Then… Then what should he do? Could it be that we… We don’t care about master anymore? ”
After a long time, Gu Qingyi’s countenance slowly turned pale. Although her father’s words were true, she still found it hard to accept. When he came out, he had originally been looking for his own master. Originally, he had hoped that he could find a doctor on the road who would be safer. But now … What if something happened to Master …
Thinking of this possibility …
“Huhuhu …” Rumble …
“Hualala …”
Very soon, the wind got stronger and stronger. The strong wind swept up a large amount of sand and dust. It was so powerful that even standing still could not stand steadily. Gu Qingyi tried her best to straighten her body, but the sand on her face caused waves of pain. Soon, she was unable to open her eyes or breathe. It was as if the air was filled with sand and even her breathing was painful …
“Quick, come with me, don’t stand here! “Quickly hide!” Gu Yinian’s reaction was still fast. He grabbed Gu Qingyi’s arm and pulled her towards a low ground not far away. The guards had already arranged the horses and the goods.
This was the first time Gu Qingyi had entered the endless sandstorm. Within the span of a few breaths, even the sky had turned black, and the surroundings were pitch black, with nothing to be seen. Gu Qingyi was worried for her Master, so she let Gu Yinian drag her to a low place.
The guards had already set up their tents against the low hill. Gu Yan Nian pulled Gu Qingyi into one of the tents and immediately pressed down everything around them. The rest of the guards quickly hid themselves as well.
In order to prevent the tent from being blown away by the wind, it was built very low, not so much as sitting inside, but rather half lying on the ground. In the narrow space, the father and daughter duo just laid there quietly, the thin layer of linoleum covered by an earth-shattering layer of sand on top of which made crackling noises, and the terrifying wind seemed like it was roaring, as if it was about to tear everything apart.
It was the first time Gu Qingyi had met him, so her small face couldn’t help but turn pale.
After a long while, a pair of large hands gently patted her shoulder. “Don’t be afraid, it will be over soon. Nothing much has happened, this sandstorm won’t last for long.”
“Really?” Would it really not last long? Could such a terrifying sandstorm really pass quickly? Gu Qingyi’s face was pale as she looked at Gu Yan Nian. Her eyes were filled with disbelief, but when she looked into his deep eyes, she suddenly felt at ease. After a long while, she nodded her head vigorously, and the corner of her eyes slightly raised in a smile.
“Has father met him before?” It was unknown if it was because the big hand was magical or because Gu Yinian’s words were effective. In short, Gu Qingyi slowly calmed down, and even her heart was no longer filled with fear. The howling wind in her ears seemed to have become less frightening.
Although he was free to live outside, which was not as good as the girls living in the capital, he was still pretty good. At least, he didn’t have …
“Yes, I have. At that time, my father was still young, and he was chased away everywhere to escape. “I never thought that I would encounter a sandstorm. At that time, even though I didn’t know what a sandstorm was, I was too concentrated on running for my life. I almost lost my life.”
