Volume 2 Conquest and Killing Chapter 68 The veteran returns to the land
Xuan Shaoning lay down beside Gu Junyuan, and when he saw Rouge who was still standing in place, he waved his hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid, rest assured to sleep, I'm here." Rouge nodded vigorously and lay down near the door. Xuan Shaoning's eyes were withdrawn from Rouge's body, and he began to look at the roof blankly, and the scenes of today's battle began to emerge in his mind, until his eyes were blurred and he wandered out of the world.
Who is that person? Dressed in white, graceful and graceful, she walked towards herself step by step, fading away the faint mist, Xuan Shaoning saw her face clearly, it was Luo Yao!
"Luo Yao! What are you doing here? ”
"Don't worry, everything will be fine."
"What did you say?"
"Don't forget the herbs we learned at Castle Peak Academy, believe in yourself!"
"Luo Yao, Luo Yao, don't leave so quickly, we just met!"
The fog was getting thicker, and Luo Yao's white clothes melted into the air like snowflakes, no matter how desperately Xuan Shaoning shouted, it would be useless.
"Where are you going?"
With his own scream, Xuan Shaoning woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Shi Gong Zhengyuan in front of him.
"Where am I going? Am I not looking at you, where else can I go? Shi Gong Zhengyuan jokingly squeezed: "What kind of beautiful woman did you dream of, so reluctant?" ”
"Why are you here?" Xuan Shaoning sat up straight, tilted his head to avoid Shi Gong Zhengyuan's body and looked in the direction of Gu Junyuan, only to see Gu Junyuan holding a bowl and eating something.
"Captain Gu, how do you feel?"
"It's much better, it seems that your medicine is curative, and the girl next to you just now boiled another bowl for me." Gu Junyuan put down the bowl, and Xuan Shaoning saw that although his face was still pale, the blue ash that covered his face yesterday had disappeared, and his speech was obviously much more powerful.
"That's great!" Xuan Shaoning jumped up, "Then I'll quickly talk to the commander and immediately mobilize everyone to boil the prescription!" ”
"I'm afraid it's too late, right?" Shi Gong Zhengyuan continued to run.
"I'm going to get down to business now, don't grind, hurry up and help!"
"What you're going to do, Rouge Girl has already done or is doing it!"
When Shi Gong Zhengyuan said this, Xuan Shaoning remembered that he didn't see Rouge as soon as he woke up, "Rouge, she did it?" ”
"Long before you woke up an hour, the rouge girl found that Gu Duwei's complexion had improved, but you were still in your own sweet dream, so I went to the commander, and met me halfway, I mobilized my brothers to follow the rouge girl to the pharmacy to get the medicine to boil the medicine, and at the same time told the commander about it."
"Why didn't you wake me up sooner!" Xuan Shaoning hurriedly wanted to go out but happened to bump into Geng Yan, and before Xuan Shaoning could react, Geng Yan strode into the room and squatted beside Gu Junyuan.
"I didn't expect this recipe to really work! Gu Duwei, it's worth your risk! Geng Yan's face was full of joy.
"It's not Shaoning's credit." Gu Junyuan pointed to Xuan Shaoning who was standing at the door, and Xuan Shaoning immediately defended: "This recipe was thought of by Rouge, and the credit must be counted as hers." ”
"That's right, Rouge girl really saved the people of the entire feudal city this time, as well as the Guangyuan Army and the Xuanjia Army!"
"Commander, where's Rouge?"
"I'm boiling medicine in the dining room at the moment!"
Without waiting for Geng Yan to finish speaking, Xuan Shaoning ran away, and Shi Gong Zhengyuan hurriedly followed after saluting Geng Yan and Gu Junyuan. Running all the way towards the dining room, what I was thinking about was Bai Luoyao in my dream, it seemed that Luo Yaotuo's dream had really come true to me, Xuan Shaoning couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and when he came to the door of the dining room, he saw the rouge with his sleeves rolled up, sweating on his forehead, directing everyone to distribute medicinal materials, and boiling the rouge in front of the cauldron, in an instant, Xuan Shaoning felt that rouge and Bai Luoyao seemed to coincide, both of them were clever and benevolent, and they couldn't help but look stupid.
"Hey, you're running pretty fast, why don't you go in when you get to the door?" Shi Gong Zhengyuan, who caught up, pushed Xuan Shaoning, and the movement of the two of them also attracted Rouge.
"Brother Xuan, Brother Shi Gong, you are here!"
"Well, I've heard that your prescription is working, so I thought I'd hurry up and help!" Facing Rouge's smiling face, Xuan Shaoning said excitedly.
"It's okay, the commander has already sent so many people to help me, Brother Xuan, you can also go and rest for a while."
"I recovered after a good night's sleep, after all, there are too many poisoned people, and one more person can help everyone detoxify as soon as possible!"
Without waiting for Rouge to push, Xuan Shaoning took the spatula in her hand and began to stir it in the pot, "It's time for the fire, you have to say it!" ”
"Hmm!" Rouge wiped the sweat from his forehead and agreed with satisfaction.
After boiling the first pot of soup, Xuan Shaoning took a few bowls and sent them to the old general Yang Jie as quickly as possible, at this moment, Geng Yan and Fang Qi of the Xuanjia Army, Gu Junyuan and An Haoran of the Guangyuan Army were all present and waiting anxiously.
"Commander!"
"Hurry up and give General Yang a subdue!"
Geng Yan took the medicinal soup, An Haoran immediately helped up the old general Yang who was still in a coma, and the two of them worked together to pour the medicinal soup in, half poured it in, half spilled it, Xuan Shaoning quickly handed over the second bowl of medicinal soup, and the three of them relayed Yang Jie to drink three bowls of medicinal soup and let him continue to lie down and wait for the result.
"Shaoning, you just wait here." Geng Yan spoke, and the five of them stayed by the bedside, not leaving an inch, from early morning to dusk, and finally waited for Yang Jie's cough, and after a few coughs, Yang Jie slowly opened his eyes.
"Old General!"
"What do you think, old general?"
The five of them immediately gathered around the head of the bed, all looking at each other with caring eyes. After Yang Jie took a few deep breaths, he said weakly: "The old man thought that he had gone to report to Lord Yan, but he didn't expect to see you again when he opened his eyes.......
One sentence put everyone at ease, and Xuan Shaoning's tense nerves were relaxed.
"If the old general can talk like this, we will be relieved." Geng Yan comforted.
"The old man is really old, and his body is heavy as if he is not his own."
"Old general, you, this is the first recovery from a serious illness, and you will definitely be able to go back into battle to kill the enemy after a few days of rest!" Hahaha, with laughter, Xuan Shaoning followed Geng Yan out of the wing room and immediately returned to the dining room.
"How's the old general?" Rouge asked with concern.
"I've woken up, I see, I'm fine, thanks to you!"
"There is also the credit of Brother Xuan, as well as those brothers who came to help, they delivered the medicinal soup to the people today, but there are too many poisoned people, and I have to hurry up and continue to boil the medicine."
"Hey, you've been busy all day, I'll help you!"
"No, I can do it."
"You are a girl, can you still be stronger than me? If you're tired, who can guide us in boiling medicine? ”
Seeing Xuan Shaoning take over the work in his hands, Rouge's eyes overflowed with gratitude and satisfaction.
"Rouge, the war here is over, I'll accompany you back to Annan, go and meet Luo Yao, your medical skills will definitely be appreciated by Luo Yao!" Xuan Shaoning said to himself, not noticing that the originally smiling face of Rouge standing behind him was gradually covered with frost.
In the next three days, although some people still died of poison, more soldiers and civilians in the feudal city were still pulled back from the hands of death by the medicinal soup, which made Xuan Shaoning full of joy, but what worried him and even everyone was that Yang Jie's body never improved. On this day, Xuan Shaoning came to see Yang Jie again with medicinal soup, and the old general smiled and beckoned Xuan Shaoning to sit down.
"General Yang, you look a lot better, you can get up by yourself!" Xuan Shaoning put down the medicinal soup and walked over to support Yang Jie, who was standing in front of the window, but he refused.
"The old man has fought on the battlefield all his life, when did he need someone to support him when he was standing? Boy, I didn't expect you and I to meet again in just two months, this is the fate in the dark! ”
"What General Yang said is that when the toxicity is completely resolved, you can continue to fight on the battlefield!"
"I can't," Yang Jie's voice was much softer when he said the three words, and Xuan Shaoning thought he had heard it wrong. "I heard that you were able to find the antidote this time, all of which are your credits?" The sound is louder again.
"No, it's the pharmacist rouge girl from the Bai Family Pharmacy that the last general met, she found the prescription, and she also ignored herself for boiling medicinal soup in the dining room for several days in a row to save everyone."
"Don't take credit, think carefully, be brave before the battle, what a son of my big beam! It's time for us old bones to sink into the ground, and it's up to you to guard the girders. ”
"Lao Ji has ambitions for thousands of miles, and General Yang can't easily unload the burden on his shoulders."
"In this battle of feudalism, the main force of our Guangyuan Army suffered a lot of losses, but fortunately, some of the elites were in the hands of the dogs. Boy, Geng Yan told me before and after this battle, you have a great future, and it will be his honor if the dog can fight side by side with you in the future, if not, I hope you will definitely protect the reputation of the Guangyuan Army! ”
Yang Jie's eyes were blazing and looked at Xuan Shaoning, but Xuan Shaoning really didn't understand this, and was about to ask, Yang Jie continued: "At this moment, you definitely don't understand, and the old man doesn't plan to explain, the old man only needs you to answer." ”
"The last general promises!"
"Good!" Yang Jie actually laughed heartily, "Boy, there is good wine saved by the old man in the dining room, you go and get it!" ”
"General Yang, your body is still recovering, I'm afraid drinking alcohol is not good for ......."
"Hugh is long-winded! If you want to take it, you can take it! ”
Xuan Shaoning looked at the stubborn old man in front of him, and had no choice but to nod, and according to Yang Jie's instructions, he found a few jars of wine in the corner of the dining room, so he picked up a jar in each hand and put it in front of Yang Jie.
"General Yang, we have to make a gentleman's agreement first: this is just the altar!"
"Hahaha, boy, you also underestimated this jar of wine, this is brewed by the old man himself after he came to the feudal residence, the old man named him General Hou, if you can finish this jar of wine, the old man will serve you!"
Xuan Shaoning looked at the two jars of wine in front of him with some surprise, it was really difficult to connect with what Yang Jie said.
"General, you look good today, your interest is high, and the last general dares not to accompany you to the end!"
"Just waiting for your words!"
Yang Jie took the lead in tearing open the seal, holding the wine jar with one hand and pouring it into his mouth with the other hand, gurgling a big mouthful, when the wine jar smashed on the table, Yang Jie wiped the corners of his mouth, and roared proudly: "It's your turn!" ”
Xuan Shaoning did not show weakness, he also raised the wine jar and poured it into his mouth, when he was in Qingshan Academy, he almost didn't drink a drop of wine, and after entering the barracks, he slowly learned to drink in order to adapt, but every time it was in moderation, but this time it was different, and he didn't know why he drank it so neatly, he only felt that the general was refreshing and sweet when he first entered his throat, like a clear spring in the mountains, and the sweetness was slowly released in his mouth, so refreshing!
"How?"
"The taste is not as mellow as the capital, it has a cool sweetness that is difficult to see in the feudal residence, the general is really a good craft!"
"This is just the first step, slowly you will experience a different feeling, come, continue!"
The two of them raised the wine jar at the same time again and drank it, Xuan Shaoning obviously felt that his stomach was beginning to swell, and wanted to put down the wine jar to rest for a while, but his idea was seen through by Yang Jie, and he was forced to tilt his neck and pour the entire jar of generals down his stomach. The jar was empty, but Xuan Shaoning's stomach began to rise uncomfortably, the initial taste of the crispness no longer existed, replaced by a thick stamina, from the stomach to the throat as if someone was setting a fire, at this moment the more and more it burned, the whole body began to get hot, the face became ruddy, and layers of sweat began to ooze from the forehead, but I didn't want to drink water. Xuan Shaoning raised his eyes and peeked at Yang Jie, only to see that the other party was smiling and smiling at the moment.
"Feel the power of this second layer, right?"
Xuan Shaoning nodded, "General Yang, you are really massive, you are still quiet!" ”
"The general has been brewing for thirty years, and he has only used it to entertain four people in his life, boy, you should be content! The old man is still old, this thousand-mile frontier is also immovable, the opportunity should be given to you descendants, the fame is taken right away, you have to remember! Baishi still owes the old man a game of chess, hmph, it's also cheap, this old boy! ”
Yang Jie told Xuan Shaoning eloquently, but unfortunately the eyes of the descendants who couldn't drink well began to blur at this moment, and their ear power began to decline, Yang Jie patted Xuan Shaoning's cheek and said loudly: "The old man also left four jars of generals in the dining room, and I will reward you, remember, guard the country of Daliang, don't let down the people of Daliang!" ”
Xuan Shaoning vaguely listened, but his brain seemed to have been taken away, so he could only nod blankly, telling himself in his heart that he must persevere, but his whole body was out of strength, his eyelids were heavy, and he finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep. In this dream, only the boundless grassland and galloping horses appeared, a person wearing armor who looked like a general rode a horse far away, Xuan Shaoning couldn't see this person's face clearly, only felt familiar and unfamiliar, the breeze rippled, the flowers and plants were fragrant, refreshing people's hearts.......
"Brother Xuan! Brother Xuan! Brother Xuan! ”
Rouge shook as hard as he could, and called out loudly, because he was in a hurry, his originally fair face had turned red, "Wake up!" Wake up! ”
Xuan Shaoning was dizzy and dizzy, opened his eyes with difficulty, opened his mouth to breathe, the strong smell of wine almost smoked himself, and sat on the edge of the straw mat with the help of Rouge, and saw clearly that he was in the dining room of the General's Mansion, although he was dizzy, his stomach no longer had the uncomfortable feeling of burning fire, and at this moment he only felt that his limbs were extremely relaxed and comfortable. Twisting his waist, swinging his head, and asked angrily, "Rouge, I finally had a good night's sleep, but you have to wake me up." ”
"Something's wrong! Old General Yang has fallen! ”
Xuan Shaoning couldn't remember how he ran to Yang Jie's bedroom, only to see that the senior generals of the Guangyuan Army and the Xuanjia Army had all arrived, and the old general Yang Jie was lying peacefully, his face was the same as when they drank together.
Geng Yan, as the highest-level general, needs to stabilize the army's morale at this moment, he said: "I have sent a scout to report the matter of the old general to the saint, the old general has been deeply poisoned, although he took the medicinal soup afterwards, it is difficult to recover, the old general is on the battlefield, and now he can unload the burden and return to his hometown." From today onwards, the officers and men of the two armies will wear filial piety, and at the same time strengthen the defense around the feudal city to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. ”
Xuan Shaoning looked at Yang Jie, and suddenly remembered that he had fought with himself before, and he used his eyes to look for the wine jar in the room but found nothing. When walking back to the dining room, Xuan Shaoning couldn't help but think about the last time he saw Yang Jie, the old general said a lot to me, but what he said, why can't I remember? By constantly beating his head, Xuan Shaoning finally remembered one thing, he came to the corner of the dining room and dug out four jars of wine again in the cellar where he had found General Hou before, and the handwriting on the seal of the wine jar was vigorously written "General Hou".
"General Hou, what a General Hou! Old general, did you tell me that you want to make a general a marquis? Why do you expect this from me? ”
"Brother Xuan"
Hearing Rouge's cry, Xuan Shaoning turned around, suddenly thought of something, and immediately asked, "How did I get back here yesterday?" ”
"I don't know, yesterday you said you were going to visit the old general, and then I went to visit the patient, and when I came back in the evening, I saw you lying here, full of alcohol, how could you not wake up, I didn't dare to disturb, and then it was this morning."
"Oh, that's fine......"
"Brother Xuan, I know about the old general, you are very sad."
"What are your plans? Do you continue to stay in the feud as a pharmacist in the Bai Family Pharmacy? ”
Rouge didn't expect Xuan Shaoning to suddenly ask this question, so he replied: "An army can't just know tactics and battles, but also needs pharmacists and pharmacists, I think....... I want to join the Xuanjia Army and practice medicine in the barracks. ”
"It's rare that you can think like that, but ......."
"Brother Xuan doesn't have to be embarrassed, I know that women have never been allowed to enter and leave the barracks, but isn't Sister Scarlet Yan an exception? Not only did she go in and out of the barracks, but she also became a member of the Xuanjia Army, so why shouldn't I? I will talk to the commander about this, it is reasonable, and the commander will understand! ”
"Even if the commander agrees, but you are only alone, do you know how many people there are in the Xuanjia Army?"
"I don't have to worry about this, as long as the commander agrees, the rest of the matter will be solved."
Somehow, looking at the confident rouge, it seems that he sees the same tenacious Bai Luoyao, and there are really too many similarities between the two. Rouge can come to serve in the Xuanjia Army, which is definitely beneficial and harmless to the Xuanjia Army, and he still has to help him no matter what.
