At dusk, on a stone chair in the peony garden in the inner palace garden of the Nanjing Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty ......",

Yu Yao lay on his side on the chair unconscious, frowning deeply, hot sweat appeared on his forehead, obviously unable to wake up from the nightmare.

The sky was overcast, lightning and thunder roared, and it rained heavily.

Qian Donglai could only grit his teeth and offend, and shook her vigorously to wake her up.

"Your Majesty, wake up!"

Another thunder pressed the city of Nanjing, and Yuyao woke up violently, her chest rose and fell, her eyes open, staring at the sky blankly, and letting the rain hit her pale face.

She felt as if her body had been drained of strength, her heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to burst, and there were ten thousand needles stabbing her in her head.

"Your Majesty, you're awake!" A voice faintly came from his ears, and Yu Yao turned his head, his eyes a little blurred.

"Major Qian, it's you, you, you help me up......" Yuyao had never felt this way, his head was sore and dizzy, his eyes were glazed, and his body couldn't lift his strength.

Just in the afternoon, I discussed the wedding with Mrs. Nian, and listened to her nagging about marrying me first. Then, after sitting again in the afternoon, she went back to Qifeng Palace, passing near the Imperial Garden, because of the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, she should take a walk. Suddenly, I saw this piece of peony blooming brilliantly, so I approached and smelled it, and I wanted to pick a few flowers and insert them in the Phoenix Palace, but I suddenly felt flustered, my head was dizzy and swollen, so I sat down to rest, and I didn't think that my eyes would be black soon.

Qian Donglai took a deep breath and stretched out his hand......

He only felt a cold hand on his wrist, and Yuyao couldn't muster his strength and turned his head slightly.

Drops of water hung on her long eyelashes, her lips were as pale as pear blossoms, and the iron-blooded empress and leader of the Xinghua Party had never been so vulnerable.

Qian Donglai looked at her blankly, waiting for her to get up, but what she waited for was that she squinted her eyes and said weakly: "Immediately, Xuan...... Prime minister...... Enter the palace for me...... ...... Doctor"

After saying the last note, her whole body fell, but Qian Donglai hurriedly threw herself on the ground to cushion her.

Qian Donglai was shocked, and hurriedly helped up the unconscious woman, this garden is not close to Ci'an Palace and Qifeng Palace, when most of the palace visitors, Mrs. Nian will bring her female relatives to visit. However, there are not many female guests, and His Majesty occasionally comes to enjoy the flowers when he returns to Qifeng Palace from Ci'an Palace.

After the summer shirt was wet by the rain, it stuck to the woman's graceful body, Qian Donglai didn't dare to look at it, took off his uniform jacket and wrapped her in a hug.

Because of the rain, the palace patrol team, which was already small, also took shelter from the rain, but as soon as they came out of the garden area, they saw people.

"Hurry! Come on, Your Majesty has fainted! Go find the Prime Minister!" The Imperial Guards who were sheltering from the rain in the side hall heard that they ran over one after another, and Qian Donglai hurriedly asked people to go out of the palace to find the Prime Minister, and asked people to go to Ci'an Palace to inform.

When the people were sent to Qifeng Palace, all the female officials were startled, and His Majesty, who had always been alive, would be carried back in a fragile coma.

Lu Ying hurriedly let her into the dormitory, and drove Qian Donglai out, and many girls changed her into clean clothes.

The green warbler touched her hands and feet coldly, and it didn't matter if it was summer, she asked the girls to burn the stove, and she also personally warmed her hands. She couldn't believe that the almighty lady in her mind would suddenly become like this.

Prime Minister Zhang Rui soon entered the palace, even faster than Nian Yaoling and Mrs. Nian. Zhang Rui is a spirit clan, and he senses something abnormal.

The yin aura invaded the woman's body, and the evil energy of countless resentful spirits wanted to destroy her life. If it weren't for the strength of her soul and the protection of the merits and qi of several worlds, and now she is already the son of qi in this world, I am afraid that she would not be able to hold on to death a long time ago.

Zhang Rui is her servant, if she dies, then he will not be able to stay in this world. He is fine now and it is completely because of her strong qi, just like when Tang Xinwei was cut off and fell unconscious, he was still able to show up to take care of her, qi and * are sometimes two different things.

Nian Yaoling and Mrs. Nian rushed over in a panic, and Mrs. Nian touched her daughter's forehead and hands, so frightened that she cried immediately.

"How did this happen when it was fine at noon......? You can't scare my mother......"

Nian Yaoling's expression was solemn, and he thought: Yu'er is a genius in the sky, strong in martial arts, proficient in medical science, and is fine at noon, how could such a thing happen.

Nian Yaoling asked, "Prime Minister, can you see that something is wrong with Yu'er?"

Zhang Rui said in a low voice: "It's a witch Gu." ”

Nian Yaoling was taken aback: "In this world, there are really witches?"

"It shouldn't be. The world has its own rules, warlocks should not use harmful spells on people, if warlocks cast such poisonous spells on mortals, they themselves are also very dangerous. "This is different from the exorcists in the human world, exorcists deal with ghosts and monsters, and they can still accumulate merit.

Zhang Rui said, let people summon Long Xue and Long Mo who were stationed in the capital to come over, it was better to deal with the evil phoenix, the phoenix belonged to the yang, but Zhang Jinfeng and Zhang Yufeng, one in Sichuan and the other in the Daimyo's Mansion, were too far away.

Zhang Rui asked people to clean up the dormitory, carried her to the center to put down, and then arranged the basic gossip formation around.

As soon as Long Xue came, he bled him, and then used a brush to write an exorcism charm on her forehead.

He also ordered Long Xue to guard here, not to let any outsiders approach, and to maintain the basic formation.

Long Mo was also in a hurry and said, "Zhang Rui, what's going on?"

Zhang Rui said: "Capable people should be detrimental to Miss." It's really desperate, mortals want to control so many resentful ghosts and ghosts to be devoured by them, and it's still good to fold twenty years of life, I'm afraid that the other party's own soul will be torn apart by the resentful ghosts. ”

Long Mo said: "Who is so harmful to others and not to himself?"

Zhang Rui looked to the north, he just used the basic technique of exorcism by a human mage to help people save people, which is not considered a "violation", because there are still such mages in the current world who exorcise evil spirits, but there are also many deceptions.

Zhang Rui opened the mage's "Heavenly Eye" and found that thousands of evil spirits and ghosts on the other side were flocking to Nanjing, but he saw the scene that mortals could not see.

In the Valhalla Palace of the Purple Mountain, the palace keepers faintly felt the Valhalla Palace vibrate. If it is a real warlock, you can see that nearly 10,000 heroic spirits worshiped by the empire poured out of the palace to drive away evil spirits and protect the empress, and in Yangzhou and Jiading, there are also unjust spirits of tragedies such as Yangzhou Ten Days and Jiading Three Massacres who have not had time to be reincarnated, and the heroic spirits of anti-Qing heroes are also resisting the evil spirits flocking to Nanjing. Someone has torn apart the rules of ghosts and gods in this time and space, so there is a contest between good and evil between ghosts and spirits.

The way of heaven is incomplete, and the rules are chaotic, but even if you provoke this ghost and god thing, my Chinese qi has been completed, and I also have my Chinese worship heroic spirit can also protect the country.

If you break the rules, then don't blame me. (I just don't use nuclear/weapon first, but if you use nuclear/weapon, then I can only use it.) ）

Zhang Rui Wannian deals with rules, so he naturally knows how to take advantage of loopholes.

……

Beijing City, among the imperial palaces, Taihe Palace.

The entire palace was heavily guarded, there were no ministers in the Taihe Palace, and the decrepit Kangxi sat on the dragon chair.

At the end, there was also a group of princes and grandsons, including the crown prince, the eldest brother who had just been redeemed, the fourth elder brother, the eighth elder brother and so on the Manchu royal family.

Among them, there is also a handsome young man sitting next to the fourth elder brother, it is the son-in-law Honghui, because of the golden finger of the heroine Wulanara, Honghui has been growing up healthily.

Many princes prayed sincerely for Yongchang in the Qing Dynasty and cursed the demon maiden to die. Honghui looked at a woman who was still graceful in figure dancing with a shaman's face, she was the leader of many shamans, and it was also his mother, who had always kept a low profile.

Although it has long been proposed to do shamanic rituals and curse demon girls, Kangxi has never believed in it, and he prefers what the Han people say, "Zi is silent, strange and chaotic".

Here's the thing, the evil situation in the Qing Dynasty, and the cold relationship and sexual/life of the fourth elder brother after he came back, and his career was like ashes, which made the Wulanala clan no longer able to be a calm heroine.

She came forward to enter the palace and said to Concubine De that she had sent someone to investigate, and she had obtained the birth date of the demon girl, and she could use the curse of the shaman to kill the demon girl. Of course, this is a panic, but she remembered Nian's birth in her previous life, and when a grandmother suggested using witchcraft on the favored Nian, she didn't use it in the end, but she remembered her birthday.

The Wulanala clan said that she heard that the demon girl not only caused countless killings in the major battles of the Central Plains, but also did all kinds of evil in Dongying, so as long as she could drive all the resentful spirits to ask for the demon girl's life, it was useless to let the demon girl have any ability.

Concubine De was also afraid that the Qing Dynasty would be over, so she desperately scolded and threatened to speak to Kangxi. Kangxi has no choice, the reform can't be changed, and he doesn't want to change it. He is accustomed to being a master praised by thousands of servants and thousands of people, and he is used to enjoying the supreme honor of the emperor, and he will not fall willingly. He didn't want the way the southern demon girl was the emperor.

He will not be willing to hand over the country and return to the white mountains and black waters, and even the demon girl will not even leave him the ancestral land, he has a deep hatred for the demon girl. She stripped him of all his dignity and broke the old order in which he could enjoy it all.

So, Kangxi, who was getting older and more confused and had been forced to become a madman, was regarded as a live horse doctor, listened to Concubine De's advice, and agreed with the method of the Wulanala clan.

The Ulanala clan originally had the inheritance of cultivation skills, and there was room for cultivators, in addition to the good things she got from the space, she also had cultivation books.

She couldn't quite understand the profound cultivation of the true Dao, but that senior had also been given a shamanic spell book in classical Tunguska. As a Manchurian, the Ulanala clan has read three or four points to understand.

Originally, she didn't want to practice shamanic spells, but when she learned about Nian's rebellion a few years ago, she was always very afraid that Nian's would come back to rob the fourth master, so she wanted to cultivate shamanic spells to kill her.

Later, although she found out that the demon girl didn't want the fourth master at all, but wanted to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, she would not allow this. Daqing Jiangshan belongs to the fourth master and her good son, she should be able to be the queen and the queen mother.

She also knew that shamanic spells to drive away resentful spirits and harm people were anti-heaven techniques, and she would definitely not have long to live after doing it, but in order for her son to become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, she also fought for her life.

Anyway, she has lived for two lifetimes, and the fourth master really wants to ignore her at all, and she doesn't want to live anymore.

She didn't hide her identity as a shaman, she took the initiative to do it, she didn't think much about what they thought of her, as long as the demon girl died.

That demon girl, in her previous life, won the favor of the fourth elder brother, and in this life, she will not let her son become the emperor, new hatred and old hatred, she will not keep a low profile anymore. Even if she can't live, she will never allow the demon girl slut who caused her to not get what she wants in her two lives to be happy, and she wants to pull her to death.

The shaman* has been doing things for a few days and nights, the hair of the Ulanala clan has turned white, and she has united all the shamans to drive away countless resentful spirits of the Qing army, inferior gentry, and widows to harm the demon girl, but the demon girl is not simple, there are also people who protect the demon girl, and there are countless ghosts in the south to protect the demon girl against those evil spirits.

Only, work harder, let more of the power of cursed faith allow her to gain power, and then drive more evil spirits to attack, defeat those souls who protect the demon girl, and also break the "protective circle" of the demon girl.

Therefore, tonight will dance the great god in the Taihe Palace, and the royal family, Manchurian nobles, and ministers of the court and the central government all ask to be present to curse the demon girl together.

Dressed in the robes of a shaman, the Ulanala clan drove his spiritual power to chant with shamanic spells, summoning distant resentful spirits to bite and kill the woman in the Nanjing Imperial Palace who had the birth date and tear her soul apart......

But I heard two strange laughs from the distant sky, "Hahaha, hahaha~~"

Suddenly hearing lightning and thunder in the sky, everyone was shocked out of the temple, and saw that the sky seemed to be burning with a flame.

In a moment, a giant dragon of a black dragon and a fiery red phoenix fell from the sky, and the magic light flashed, turning into two handsome young men wearing black and red Hanfu robes.

The two of them came, with black hair and flying clothes, and the ancient Han family was elegant and graceful, growing flowers step by step, only to hear them laughing and chanting poems:

"It is advisable to seek talents and visit ministers, and Jia Shengcai is even more incoherent. Pity the front seat in the middle of the night, don't ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods!"

The princes and ministers of the Taihe Palace turned pale.

They laughed again: "The Tartar is really exhausted, hahaha~~"

Kangxi, who no longer has the bearing of dominating the world and is full of resentment towards demon girls, also fell into the dragon seat, and the fourth elder brother was stunned, and all the clans and ministers were frightened.

"Escort, escort!" shouted some of the ministers, and the guards rushed in to protect them.

I only heard the two of them smile and say: "We don't want Kangxi's life, we don't need to protect it, we really want his life, and you can't protect it." ”

The two approached the hall and looked around, and the handsome and unspeakable young man in Hanfu and Taoist robes in black finally fell on the shaman mage led by the Ulanala clan.

The young man in black said: "You are good at using spells, but you asked for it!"

The young man in red looked at some of the Wulanala clan's Taoism that was different from other shamans, and couldn't help but say excitedly, "Big brother, let me do this!"

These two people are Longmo and Zhang Yufeng, Longmo went north on the order of Zhang Rui, and also brought Yufeng with him after passing through the Daimyo's Mansion.

When Long Mo heard Zhang Yufeng, who had always stumbled with him, finally call him eldest brother, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Let you this time." ”

I saw that Zhang Yufeng, a beautiful man in red, flew over to catch the Wulanala clan, and the Wulanala clan was a cultivator in the end, and he was fighting with Zhang Yufeng at the moment.

Zhang Yufeng has been cautious to find out her spell power, anyway, how strong her spells are, how strong the spells he uses.

Zhang Yufeng exploited the loopholes of the Heavenly Dao in this way, he did not use spells that exceeded the rules of the Heavenly Dao of this time and space to deal with "mortals" at all.

But the Ulanala clan has been doing the Fa for a few days, and his body is already failing, so there is so much spiritual power?

Soon her spiritual power was exhausted, and Yufeng only used her martial arts in the world to capture her, and at this time, Long Mo was shaking the folding fan, learning to pretend to be "mother".

At his feet is a group of shamans who have been ordered **.

In front of the original offering table for shamanic rituals, Long Mo and Zhang Yufeng each took three sticks of incense and lit them.

The two knelt down with incense, raised their heads and said loudly: "The way of heaven is above, and the monk Long Mo/Zhang Yufeng has no disrespect." The people of China are all living beings in the world, and they respect the way of heaven, so why should the heavens favor one over the other? The Six Realms have their own laws, and they are small in the Qing Dynasty, and for their own selfishness, they use the techniques of ghosts and gods to murder the supreme of the Central Plains and the sons of the number of qi, and their sins are unforgivable. I hope that the way of heaven will be the master, punish the demons, and correct the law. Heaven is endless, and the avenue is boundless!"

After the two of them held incense and worshipped, they inserted / into the incense burner, knelt down and banged their heads three times.

Suddenly, I heard the thunder of Beijing City rumbling and thundering, and countless lightning and thunder. (Heavenly Dao bites his handkerchief and is aggrieved: You two evil beasts will take advantage of the loopholes of the law! You still want to force me to kill my own daughter! Don't go too far!)

Long Mo and Yufeng bowed down again, and said loudly: "Please also ask the Heavenly Dao to be the master, punish the demons, and use righteousness/law." The way of heaven is endless, and the avenue is boundless!" (Long Mo and Yufeng: We have gone too far! The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people!)

The thunder sounded again, and Long Mo and Yufeng read it again, kowtowing. When everyone's ears were about to burst, there was a loud bang in the sky that seemed to explode, and the earth shook.

But then, there was no more thunder in the sky, and then people's ears seemed to sound countless ghosts crying wolf howls, the yin qi was full, and the Taihe Hall shook.

Heavenly Dao punished them, allowing the evil spirits they had summoned to devour their bodies and drain their life qi from heaven and earth.

I only heard the shamans scream bitterly, and then, hugging and rolling, and then straightening up.

All the seven orifices were bleeding, the breath of life in the body was emptied, and the originally fresh body became a dry corpse.

Ula Nara was a little slower, and she found herself bleeding from her nose, mouth, and ears.

Her hands withered at a rate visible to the naked eye, and her face quickly slackened, and her life was cruelly passing away, being taken away in such a way.

"Fourth Master...... Honghui ......"

"E-niang!!" Honghui shouted, running to his mother, but when he ran in front of her, she was already a dried corpse, he touched it lightly in fear, only to see that the dried corpse also turned to ashes on the ground.

A gust of wind blew in, and the ashes were blown away, as if those people had never existed. Ash soot.

The dark clouds in the sky opened again, and Long Mo and Yufeng still kowtowed respectfully three times, but when they stood up, they were lighter.

They forced Heavenly Dao to bite their "biological daughter" to death with the rules of the Great Dao, and the weakened "Hourly Sky Heavenly Dao" was healing. Maybe it thought that if it opened one eye and closed one eye, it would be able to let go of the Ulanala clan and only give it a few years of life. This heavenly way just wants to be eccentric.,How about it.,Why are you so forced!!

It must be known that when Yuyao's qi is not successful, even the fourteenth elder brother can't be killed, let alone Yongzheng, Wulanala and Kangxi.

But Yu Yao followed the rules of the methods allowed by this time and space, and also followed the laws of the Great Dao, and the rebellion was successful, and the qi number was completed, even if she didn't want to admit it, she was also the son of the qi number. This is the other way around, the Wulanala clan and others dare to use yin and evil spells on her, and if they are exposed, the Heavenly Dao must also be punished.

Long Mo looked at the people who were scared and collapsed to the ground, as well as Kangxi, who was protected by the trembling imperial guards, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you have come to the Forbidden City, do you want to leave something down and take something with you?"

"What the eldest brother said is extremely true!" As he spoke, Zhang Yufeng grabbed a guard's knife, and when he reached a pillar, he jumped up, the blade shadow flashed, and the debris flew.

He jumped several times in succession, each time lower and lower, and soon stood in front of the pillar with satisfaction.

"Fourth brother, you still have to practice your words. "Longmo review. He remembered that "Mom" also had to be inscribed on some occasions, such as the plaque and couplet of "Valhalla" were all inscribed by her own hand.

I saw that the big pillar was crookedly engraved with "General Zhang Yufeng of the Chinese Empire came here for a visit".

After Long Mo's comment, he also snatched a guard's knife according to the gourd painting, and was about to write, when he suddenly said: "Fourth brother, my name is Long Mo, your name is Zhang Yufeng, your name is one more word than mine, what if it doesn't match?"

"Then aren't you carving Tang Balong?"

"No, everyone in the world knows that my name is Longmo, and they don't know it's me when they engrave 'Tang Balong'. ”

"That's called Zhang Longmo. ”

Long Mo nodded happily, feeling that the world must know that it was him when he saw it at such a moment, so he also flew to engrave the words.

Zhang Yufeng went to look at his handwriting and said, "I also said that I didn't write well, and you didn't write well." ”

I saw that the pillar was also a dog crawling letter.

Long Mo looked at it, coughed, and said, "Add time." ”

Then, under the last word, he wrote a small line horizontally - "two years of the imperial calendar".

Long Mo threw the knife, clapped his hands, and asked, "What should I take with you?"

Zhang Yufeng said: "Look at me!" He Ling Bo dodged the protection of the guards in a slight step, and actually ran in front of the fourth elder brother, the fourth elder brother turned around and wanted to run, but he was stopped by him.

Zhang Yufeng grinned, suddenly took off his prince's hat, his eyes were fixed on his "money rat tail" and then stretched out his hand......

Long Mo stroked his palms and laughed: "The fourth brother is really smart! The eldest brother will also obey you today!"

As he spoke, he pounced on Kangxi in full view of everyone......

……

Nanjing's sky, which had been overcast for seven days, finally cleared on the eighth day, with the sun shining brightly and the birds singing and the fragrance of flowers.

In the lounge of the Imperial Forest Army in the side courtyard of the palace, Qian Donglai was leaning on the couch and sleeping lightly, he hadn't slept well for a few days, and he was not on duty today, but he still hadn't left the palace to go home.

"Your Majesty!" he woke up, breathing deeply again, when he heard a voice outside.

"Your Majesty is awake! Your Majesty is awake!" is Liu San, the loudest voice in the Imperial Forest Army today, and he is also on duty today, patrolling the periphery of Qifeng Palace.

Zhao San ran into the courtyard, and several royal forest soldiers were uneasy, although they were not on duty, they did not leave the palace.

Qian Donglai ran out of the house, only to see everyone surrounding Zhao San to inquire, Zhao San said: "It's the news from the female soldiers in the inner palace, saying that Your Majesty has woken up, but you still need to recuperate." ”

Qian Lai was relieved, but he still ran outside the Qifeng Palace in person, looking up at the high palace, but he couldn't take another step.

A female soldier of the Royal Forest Army came out with a relaxed face, saw him say hello, and asked, "Major Qian, are you also here to inquire?"

"Ah...... Hmmm......"

The female soldier smiled and clasped her palms together and said, "Heaven bless, listen to Lord Green Ying, Your Majesty is in no big trouble now, just raise it for a few days." Major Qian, you male soldiers, rest assured, I heard that many of you have never been out of the palace, so let's go back and rest first. ”

Qian Donglai stood in a daze for a while, and finally turned around and left, leaving the palace and returning home. The Qian family was also a prestigious family, and his family's conditions were also good, but now his father and he are both officials, and no one dares to underestimate him compared to the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

But now there are only the younger brother and the old lady who are still in school, and a few servants who have been invited to serve the old lady. Now the original system of deed of sale in China has been abolished, and the servants are contract workers. Qian Xuemin and Mrs. Qian went to Henan to take up their posts, and Henan Province is engaged in economic construction and basic education in full swing.

Qian Dong came and went to ask the old lady for peace, and the old lady said, "Big brother, are you on a business trip again?"

"Uh...... Well...... Just came back. Qian Donglai lowered his head and asked again, "Grandma has been in good health recently?"

"Fortunately, two days ago, your aunt and uncle stayed here for two days. Your cousin is also away from home all day, and you are all out of work, all of you are big officials, but the house is empty. ”

Qian Donglai said: "I understand how about going out with my grandmother? Or I take my grandmother to the activity room for the elderly, where I heard that there are many old ladies who like to go, and they can play mahjong and sing Kunqu opera." ”

Mrs. Qian said: "I'm not used to these things. Donglai, you are not young, your father does not know when to return to Beijing, your father and mother have also handed over to me before going to Henan, and I want to tell you about the daughter-in-law. I also asked someone to ask, the ladies of the Li family, the Yang family, and the He family are all knowledgeable and courteous, and they are also compatible with our family. I heard from the matchmaker that now the eunuchs will also let both men and women meet, look at the sky, I will ask the iceman to arrange ......"

Qian Donglai's heart suddenly soured, and he forcibly suppressed the feeling of choking, and said, "Grandma, I'm sorry, I ...... I haven't been available lately......"

"Otherwise, I'll ask the Iceman to come back with the girl's portrait......"

Qian Donglai thought for a while and said: "Grandma, I used to go out with my cousin to go out to the revolution without saying goodbye, and now that I have returned to Beijing, I often have no time to be filial to you, I am really unfilial." ”

Mrs. Qian smiled and said, "It's been a long time, I know you guys are promising." You don't know that your father took the exam for 20 years and then took the exam, and in the end he could only go to be a master. Even if he was admitted to the Jinshi that year, that is, he should be an editor or a seven-grade county order. Now your father is a second-class officer, and you have also become an official of the Imperial Forest Army, worthy of your ancestors. ”

Qian Donglai lowered his head, paused, and said, "Grandma, I'm ...... I don't want to get married......"

"How's that going to work? Your dad won't agree. How nice it is to have a person in the house who knows cold and hot, your father married your mother at the age of seventeen, and you have you at the age of eighteen. If you don't have to pick it yourself, I'll let someone tell you a room. ”

"Grandma'......"

……

After dinner, Qian Donglai returned to the room, took a shower in his yard, and changed into civilian clothes.

He took out a well-folded handkerchief from under his pillow, and smiled in a daze.

"You're fine...... it's okay" (. Just love the net)
