Chapter 220: The Last Straw

Mai Ke hurriedly said goodbye to Xiao Chaogui, ran to the place where the two apprentices were, and saw that Zhao Yu was pacing outside the house, and there was a sigh in his voice.

Mai Ke walked into the room and saw that Zhao Hao's shirt had been taken off, revealing the injured part of his back. The makeshift gauze and bandages were ripped off and remained aside.

Zhao Hao saw Mai Ke, greeted the master, and thanked the master for his arrival.

Mai Ke squatted down and observed the scars, only to see that about half a foot below the back of his neck, there was a shocking raised red mark, and the edges were already black and purple. Mai Ke touched it with his hand, only to feel as hot as fire.

Although Mai Ke only looked at the outside, he could basically conclude that the inside had been injured, and the bones and muscles in this place were relatively rich, and it was likely to be accompanied by fractures and tendons.

In the afternoon, he and Xiao Chaogui were injured at the same time, Xiao Chaogui was rescued by Mai Ke, who arrived in time, and immediately gave Xiao Chaogui a panacea pill. At that time, Zhao Hao had not yet surrendered, so naturally he did not have his share.

Seeing the problem, if urgent measures are not taken, his newly acquired apprentice is likely to be scrapped in advance.

Mai Ke immediately took out a panacea pill and sipped it directly into his mouth. It melts in the mouth, and the effect goes straight to the injured area. The effect of the medicine was immediately apparent—Zhao Hao felt that the unbearable pain was gone, and there was no more fever than normal body temperature.

After laying the foundation for the apprentice, Mai Ke started the spirit rhino movement to identify and treat the muscles and bones that might be broken inside.

Seeing this, Mai Ke also jumped! This is a mess! At least six or seven bones are broken, and the tendons in the injured range are also broken! How much hatred is this fifth brother?

What Mai Ke didn't know was. At that time, both sides of the war had already made up their minds to die, and they would not have survived anyway, and they would not have pulled a cushion on their backs when they were dying? If it were not for the armor, the injuries would have been much more serious than this.

Although the injury is severe, if it is handled by hand, it will take two hours to complete, and there is no guarantee of success at the first time, which is a piece of cake for Lingxi Yidong. At most, half a cup of tea has been restored.

Mai Ke saw Lingxi move and stopped working. You're done. Sue sù Zhao Haze up and try the effect. At this time, the panacea pill he had just consumed had also been digested and absorbed.

Zhao Hao got up cautiously and slowly stretched out his arms and kicked his legs to find a feeling. Huh, it doesn't hurt!

Then he moved, and then he exerted his greatest strength, and then he broke through with his greatest strength!

It feels normal together!The only thing that's unusual is. His martial arts broke through.

This was a double overjoy. Not only was the wound completely healed. The bottleneck of martial arts for many years has also been opened.

Mai Ketong guò Lingxi moved. It is already known what is happening. He knew it was a combination of two things.

One is to repair the injured part, and whenever it is necessary to replace the old material with a new one, this new material is the best in the world. So it's definitely going to be a little stronger than the original.

The second is the panacea pill. It not only treats injuries, but also improves the original system and function.

Zhao Yu saw that he was helpless, so he got rid of his illness and helped his younger brother break the bottleneck, and he admired his master beyond measure. Now in his eyes, Master represents invincibility.

After the matter was finished here, Mai Ke couldn't take a break, so he was going to move to Guigang, thinking that he could take a short rest on the back of the clouded leopard. So he said goodbye to everyone and flew to Guigang.

Unfortunately, this idea could not be realized. Hu Yihuang came to him again and asked him if he wanted to see a good show. When I asked him what kind of show he was, he didn't say anything, saying that you would know when you came.

It is said that curiosity kills cats, but in fact, people are even more powerful. No, as soon as Mai Ke heard that there was a good show, he turned the leopard's head and flew over to the direction where the starling Hu Yihuang told him.

The confrontation between the Qing army commanded by Xiang Xin and the Hu Yihuang cavalry regiment is still the same. The speed of retreat is now slower than that of a turtle, because the turtle is more capable of starvation than a man, and a man loses his ability to move when he is hungry for a certain distance.

The biggest problem of the Qing army now is hunger. During this period of time, Xiang Xin was in a life-and-death dilemma by Hu Yihuang and Ulan Duocai, especially the temptation of food. And it's a very effective trick to use, and it's definitely tried and tested.

Hu Yihuang's food, meat and other food were well prepared, but Xiang Xin and the others did not have a grain of food.

Today, I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it, so someone proposed to exchange his war horse for food. This bad idea was actually approved by Xiang Xin. Probably because he thought that people were starving to death, so what was the use of keeping horses?

So the simple question of how much to eat in exchange for a horse became the main content of the bargaining between the two parties. In the end, he still had to put forward the exchange standard according to Hu Yihuang, otherwise he would not have to change, anyway, he was not in a hurry to wait for the horse.

This final exchange criterion is one horse for five loaves. That's right, it's the kind of noodles that are one by one. Hu Yihuang called Mai Ke over to let him see this exchange ceremony.

Don't look at the extreme unequal price of this deal, Hu Yihuang did not promise to close it immediately, but clearly told him that he would wait for someone to come.

When Mai Ke arrived, he saw that he was ready. A pound of flour and a large cake, neatly placed there, absolutely enough pounds and two, to ensure the quality, the enemy's war horses have a total of one hundred, the corresponding bread has five hundred.

The enemy's war horses were also pulled out, and each war horse was pulled by a Qing soldier, and they were all a little hungry and staggering, and the men and horses complemented each other very well.

Xiang Xin was also there, and the war horse he had ridden for many years was also exchanged. Originally, some people mentioned that yì slaughtered horses and ate them by themselves, so that they could eat more meat. But the owner of the war horse disagreed. At the same time, there is the practical problem - horse meat can't always be eaten raw, right? They don't bring any cooking utensils or fire.

Looking at these dough cakes, Mai Ke had a struggle in his heart: is this to give them this, or to add some ingredients to it? Just give them this, they will eat one in three or four, and they will not last too much for a day or two; if they add ingredients, they will immediately lose their combat effectiveness, and they can solve the problem immediately.

After much deliberation, he made a decision. didn't communicate with Hu Yihuang, so he implemented it himself.

When Hu Yihuang saw Mai Ke coming, although he was slightly stunned, he did not object, so he greeted him, asked him to come to the flatbread together, and loudly announced the start of the exchange.

Then go down the lì together. The war horses were all pulled over, and the flatbread was removed by the Qing army. Then each side returned to its own camp.

After the Qing army returned, they immediately picked up the flatbread and eagerly ate it. A loaf of bread is divided into eight petals, and it is very limited in the hands of each person. However, this is also the only official grain product in recent days.

Therefore, the Qing soldiers of the full battalion ate very happily from top to bottom. After eating, a wave of drowsiness invaded, and everyone fell into a dream. (To be continued......)
