Gale and Purple Night's foot strength was superior, and sure enough, it was not yet dawn, and they arrived at Xisheng's military camp ahead of schedule.

Without alarming anyone, Gu Zhixing hugged Su Mian, who was already asleep, and silently rolled into the small window when she came out.

Carefully placing the person on the bed, he looked at the defenseless sleeping face of the person in front of him, and a smile crossed his eyes.

"Mian, what a dream." Whispering, Gu Zhixing leaned over, hesitated for a moment, and finally changed the kiss that was intended to fall on his forehead to the corner of his lips.

The person in the bed didn't realize that he was secretly "taken advantage" of, just muttered softly, and fell asleep again.

……

Returning to his tent, as soon as Gu Zhixing entered, he saw Lu Zhe sitting at the table waiting for him.

"Lord Wang." Seeing that he was back, Lu Zhe hurriedly stood up.

He saluted Gu Zhixing, and then he asked, "Does the prince really plan to take the initiative to send troops in these two days?" ”

"Nature." Gu Zhixing nodded undeniably: "Now that the supplies have arrived, there will be no danger on the side of Emperor Beiyuan for the time being, Ah Mian is worried all day because of this matter, it is better to end it earlier." ”

Lu Zhe nodded pretending to realize when he heard this, but he was a little helpless in his heart.

The reason is very sufficient, but if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that he is naturally for Su Mian.

He is not deaf, and what the two of them said on the horse today is of course clear to hear.

However, this battle will not be lost, and it is a good thing to solve it early, no matter what Su Rou wants to do, it is impossible to win over the Western Sage army led by Gu Zhixing.

After thinking for a while, Lu Zhe nodded and said, "Then I will call Ziqing and them to discuss carefully early tomorrow morning, if Su Rou's side does not make any moves, they can directly start a war on the second day." ”

……

Early the next morning.

As soon as Su Mian opened his eyes, he was shaken by the dazzling sunlight outside.

I don't know if it's because she has been bumpy last night, she only felt a little sore all over, sat on the bed for a while, and then got out of bed to wash up, faintly feeling a little headache.

Gu Zhixing just opened the curtain and walked in with food, and saw Su Mian sitting at the table with his forehead propped up, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and subconsciously frowned.

"Ah Mian, is there anything you feel uncomfortable with?" He put down the tray, stepped forward in two steps, and reached out to probe Su Mian's forehead.

Fortunately, the temperature in the palm of the hand is normal.

Su Mian hesitated for a moment, but still said honestly: "I feel a little headache, it should be that I had a cold last night, please find a casual military doctor to get a pair of medicines." ”

Before I came, I had already said that if I felt uncomfortable in my body, I would explain it in time, and Su Mian also knew in her heart that if she was reckless, she would cause trouble to others.

Looking at her somewhat pale lips, Gu Zhixing couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart.

"Eat these things first, and I'll ask the military doctor to prescribe you two pairs of medicine to prevent wind and cold." As he spoke, he asked the soldiers guarding the door to find a military doctor.

"Is there anything important today?" She looked at Gu Zhixing and asked.

"Nope." Gu Zhixing replied in a low voice: "Today is just to make a plan for tomorrow's troops, and then tap the number of people, you just have a good rest, and leave the rest to me." ”’

"Okay." Su Mian's eyes flickered for a moment, and he responded lightly.

Handed over to Gu Zhixing, she was naturally relieved.

After eating something simply, and honestly drinking all the decoction, watching Gu Zhixing leave, Su Mian very consciously stayed in the tent to rest.

Perhaps because of the effect of the medicine, it didn't take long for her to feel a little sleepy and fall asleep.

By the time I opened my eyes again, it was already afternoon.

Before she opened her eyes, Su Mian smelled the fragrance of food coming from the tip of her nose, thinking that it should be sent by Gu Zhixing, and she didn't bother when she saw that she was still asleep.

The food was still warm, Su Mian simply ate some, and then felt a little depressed that she had been staying in the tent, and after thinking for a while, she took the cloak on the side and planned to go out for a walk.

Gu Zhixing's tent was closed, and Su Mian only glanced at it, and then dispelled the idea of going in and listening.

He will definitely arrange everything, and he still won't go in and bother at this time, just wait for the result.

After thinking for a moment, Su Mian suddenly had an idea.

Anyway, there is nothing to do now, it is better to accompany Uncle Ge and his old man, once this war starts, it will not be as idle as it is today......

Inside the battalion commander of the Qingteng tribe.

The old man sat silently in his account, staring at the half-broken jade plaque in front of him, his eyes bloodshot.

This jade plaque was sent by Su Rou today.

There is no letter, only this half of the jade plate on Awan's body.

The other half was given to Uncle Ge when she first disappeared, and now the meaning of the other half is self-evident.

Today is the last day of the three-day period, and this jade plaque is her ultimatum.

After sitting quietly for a long time, the old man sighed heavily, put away the jade plaque on the table, and turned around to take a water bag from the shelf.

He had already thought of a suitable reason to let Su Miantong leave, but he was always a little hesitant.

But now, it can only ......

"Uncle Ge! Are you there? Su Mian's voice suddenly sounded outside the camp tent, startling the old man, and he almost dropped the water bag in his hand to the ground.

didn't expect Su Mian to take the initiative to come to him, Uncle Ge hurriedly adjusted the look on his face, lifted the curtain and walked out.

"Miss Su, why did you suddenly come to me? I was just going to see you. As usual, he looked at Su Mian standing outside with a smile, and his eyes were buried with entanglements and guilt.

Su Mian was defenseless against the old man in front of her, and replied with a smile when she heard this: "Of course I am free today, I want to come and see your old man." ”

Uncle Ge's eyes flickered for a moment, and some hesitation suddenly appeared in his heart, and then he thought of the half of the broken token he received today.

Awan is still in their hands......

After closing his eyes, the old man spoke, "I was looking for you, and I wanted to ask if you would like to go with me to pick some herbs." ”

"Herbs?" Su Mian hesitated for a moment.

Knowing that she would be like this, the old man continued: "It's just that I need to store some simple bruises...... herbs on weekdays, and I used to accompany Awan to ."

Sure enough, at the mention of Ah Wan, Su Mian immediately softened.

After only a moment's pause, she simply said, "I'll go with you."

Uncle Ge was silent for a moment, and barely squeezed out a smile: "Okay, then you wait for me here, I'll bring something." ”

Su Mian stood at the door and waited, looking at the direction of the barracks with some hesitation, but still dispelled the idea of going back and saying something.

The army will be sent tomorrow, and everyone should be discussing it right now, so I'd better not bother, but if I go to collect medicine with Uncle Ge, I should be back in a while......

Just thinking about it, Uncle Ge had already packed up, lifted the curtain and walked out.

"Let's go." He smiled at Su Mian and turned around and walked in the opposite direction of the exit.

"Aren't we going over there?" Su Mian looked in the direction behind him with some confusion.

Uncle Ge paused slightly, and slowly explained in a calm tone: "Some herbs grow in the shadows, if you go from the front, you may have to go around in a big circle, we used to pick herbs from this side, and if we walk forward, we can find the herbs we want." ”

Su Mian nodded thoughtfully, and an idea suddenly appeared in her heart.

Ah Wan ...... at the time Did you just go out of here and never be heard from again?

She wanted to ask, but she was afraid of touching the old man's sadness, so she was silent for a moment and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.

The two of them walked one after the other, Su Mian looked at the camp that was getting farther and farther behind him, and there was a faint uneasiness in his heart.

She didn't know what she was worried about, but she suddenly felt that the old man who loved to talk to her in the past seemed to be ...... Some are too quiet.

Is it because this is the place where Awan disappeared, so Uncle Ge is uneasy?

Or is it because of something else......

"Uncle Ge, you ...... Are you not feeling well? After thinking about it, Su Mian couldn't help but ask after all.

Hearing this, the old man stopped, exhaled slowly, and then replied in a hoarse voice: "Yes, I'm old, and I really haven't rested much in the past few days......

"Let's take a break around here." Uncle Ge looked around and walked towards the edge of a forest not far away.

Su Mian hurriedly raised his heels.

Randomly found an open space and sat down, and the old man untied the two water bags hanging from his waist, looking a little hesitant.

After struggling in his heart for a long time, his eyes were finally crossed by a touch of determination, they had already come here, how could there be a chance to turn back......

Wait for Awan to come back safely, and ...... herself So he apologized with death, so as not to implicate the rest of the Qingteng tribe, and made up his mind, the old man handed one of the water bags in his hand to Su Mian.

"This is for Miss Su, after walking so far, let's drink some water." The old man smiled at Su Mian.

Su Mian took the water bag without doubt, opened it and took a sip.

"Miss Sue." Uncle Ge suddenly spoke: "These days, thank you for coming to see the old man often, my ......"

"Whatever you say, it's right." didn't expect the old man to suddenly thank him, Su Mian was slightly stunned, a little embarrassed.

Uncle Ge shook his head, the dark color on his face was heavier than ever: "As soon as I saw you...... I know that you are a good boy, just like my Awan, you are a good girl who is sensible......"

Su Mian listened quietly and didn't interrupt, but Uncle Ge's next words made her face change suddenly.

I only heard the old man say slowly: "It's Uncle Ge who is sorry for you, if you have a next life, Uncle Ge will compensate you again......"

Su Mian sighed in her heart, and hurriedly stood up: "Uncle Ge, what are you talking about......

Before the words fell, Su Mian felt an overwhelming feeling of dizziness coming, her hands and feet became a little weak, and she glanced at the water bag she had just drunk in disbelief, and she had an answer in her heart.

Myself was ...... Drugged.
