Chapter 1467 1467: Journey to the capital
”Who is that person? He has red blood? He doesn’t seem to be from here. How did he even get here?”
”I don’t have time to think. I need to help him first. He might be alive!” the woman jumped from one stone to another, moving closer to the body that was stuck between the stones.
She grabbed the body of the man, helping it out of the water carefully to make sure that the wounds didn’t get worse.
After bringing out the body, the woman started jumping from rock to rock, going back.
After landing on the ground, she placed the body of the man on the ground.
”The wounds are so deep, but he’s still breathing. It’s really surprising. Still, just what exactly is this person? How can someone have red blood?” The woman exclaimed, sighing.
”I don’t know if our methods will work on him, but I need to help him. I can’t let him die like this. I need to at least stop him.”
She took off her green bracelet and placed it before her. There was a small leaf wrapped around the bracelet. She removed the leaf, revealing the silver bracelet on the inside.
”I hope this works, and I’m not making any mistakes. If you’re dangerous for my clan, it would be bad if someone finds out that I saved you. I really hope you weren’t here with the bad intentions.”
She crushed the leaf before her, using a stone and her bracelet, and placed it in the mouth of the young man, closing his mouth.
”I need water.” The woman stood up and walked to the river. She took some water in her hand and walked back to Long Chen.
”Now, how do I open your mouth? If I use my hands, the water will fall. This… Whatever life is more important now.
She stopped the water from her hand. Using her hands, she opened the mouth of Long Chen.
Bending forward, she placed her lips on the lips of the young man, letting out the water she had saved.
The water entered the mouth of Long Chen, making him subconsciously gulp it.
The woman sat straight and wiped her lips with her hands before wearing the bracelet again.
She sat before the man, tired.
”You don’t look much different than us, yet you are so different on the inside.”
She stood up after getting some rest and picked the dark-haired man’s body. “Let’s go. While you’re sleeping, I should take you back to the clan. They’ll decide what to do from this point.”
Carrying the young man, she walked back the way she came from.
….
By now, more and more people had started noticing the blood in the river. They had gathered together, talking about the same phenomenon.
After a long discussion, everyone decided that they were going to go up and find the source.
”No need to go anywhere,” A voice came from the back.
Everyone looked back, noticing a woman returning with a body in her hand.
”Rai, who are you carrying?” An old man stepped forward, asking the girl. “Who is this man?”
”He’s the source of the color of our river. All those red droplets in the water are his blood. I went to check the source already and found him there.”
”That’s his blood? How can he have red blood? Is he not one of us?”
”I haven’t seen him in our village before, so I don’t know. But he has red blood, so let alone being from our village, I doubt he’s even from this world.”
”An outlander? How is this possible? So far, not a single person has managed to find this world. Even the Godly Beasts, Angels, and Devils have failed. How could he get here then?”
”If he can get here, that means others can too. Our world is in danger, it seems. We need to prepare.”
”That’s right. We need to inform the Capital about this. We must take this person hostage and deliver him to the capital. They can ask him who else knows about this place and decide on the best course of action accordingly.”
”But uncle Lu, I saved him! He was almost dead! We can’t put him through such a long and arduous journey. He needs rest. Moreover, I don’t think he’s here with bad intentions. It seems more like an accident that he ended up here.” The woman tried to defend the young man in her arms.
”You don’t understand. You think he is a good person, but what if he isn’t? What if he’s bad? We can’t protect ourselves in that case. Moreover, isn’t it better if he dies? Then he can’t leave and tell anyone about this place.”
”On the other hand, if he survives, it might be good for us as well. We can get some answers from him. In any case, we need to take him to the Capital. The risk is too big if we do otherwise.”
The villagers didn’t listen to the lady one bit as they took the body of the man from her. The leader of the village carried the body of the lady back to the village.
Arranging a carriage, they placed the body inside a cage inside the carriage. Ten of the strongest villagers accompanied the cage in the carriage.
The carriage soon departed for the Capital, carrying an unknown person.
The woman watched the man she saved being taken without her permission, and she couldn’t even stop it from happening. It was the first time she had felt so disappointed. She had saved the life of a person only for his life to be put in danger again.
However, she couldn’t go against the village elders either as they weren’t entirely wrong either. It was a risk to keep that person here.
The carriage traveled through the rough terrain without stopping for even a second. They didn’t even stop to eat.
For two days straight, it traveled day and night.
For two days, there was no movement in the body. Only on the third day itself did the body make a movement.
The eyelids of the young man flickered as his fingers clenched and released without anyone noticing.
The young man slowly opened his eyes, feeling like he was in a moving vehicle.
He looked around, trying to get a sense of his whereabouts. “Did I get out of that place?”
