The more he examines him and the more injuries he finds, the more openly upset and distressed Nie Huaisang becomes. He doesn't know what happened, has no way of knowing, but it obviously wasn't anything good. He can't help himself; he finds himself stroking Jin Guangyao's hair a moment, a tender gesture to help soothe and reassure them both. His brother went out on a night hunt with some of the men earlier today at the urging of some troubled villagers in the area, leaving him to practice under the supervision of a senior disciple.
"San-ge, don't worry about that. You're hurt," he murmurs. "Da-ge's out helping some villagers right now, anyway. Just worry about yourself, okay?"
Another pet and a deep breath to steady nerves before he turns to one of the sentries.
"Hey! You there! Go tell the doctor we need help! And you, over there -" he waves a hand at another Nie disciple, one good deal more muscular than himself. "Help me get him to the infirmary. Don't worry about my brother, I'll take responsibility."
If Nie Mingjue's going to force him to become sect leader against his will, he's going to have to get used to the idea of him making his own decisions and that's that.
