The village is not large, but there are only about 20 households.

It is very poor, it is a typical poor small village in northern Xinjiang, the thatched houses are low and dilapidated, and the village is also a little messy.

He Junxian glanced back at Lin Ruan and said in a low voice: "Princess, why don't you give the second girl to your subordinates, it's too hard for you to hold her like this." ”

He couldn't understand why Xiuxiu had been hiding in Lin Ruan's arms and refused to come out, so he had to let Lin Ruan keep walking like this.

Lin Ruan shook his head, "It's okay, I have a lot of strength, Xiuxiu was frightened last night and had a fever." After a while, you can go to the village and ask if there is any Langzhong, if not, you can ask for some herbs. ”

He Junxian nodded worriedly, and his steps were a little faster.

Fortunately, the thatched hut where he settled was not too far, He Junxian entered the house and checked it first, and after making sure that there was no problem, he let Lin Ruan go in with Xiuxiu in his arms.

The room was small, with only a dilapidated wooden bed and a table with a broken leg.

He Junxian said apologetically: "Princess, there is only this empty house, you can settle for a while." ”

Lin Ruan nodded, untied his cloak, and wrapped it lightly on the wooden bed with Xiuxiu.

The cloak was very large, covering most of Xiuxiu's face, revealing only a small part of her forehead. Lin Ruan stretched out his hand to probe the temperature of her forehead, frowned and said, "It's burning even more, Captain He, you quickly let someone go to find medicine, and come in with water again, I'll wipe it for Xiuxiu." ”

He Junxian responded and hurriedly went out to fetch water.

After a while, He Junxian came back with a wooden basin.

Lin Ruan took the basin, closed the door of the hut, and then walked to the bed, stirring the water a few times with his hands, but he didn't wipe Xiuxiu's forehead at all.

And Xiuxiu, who had not moved for a while, suddenly ripped off her cloak a little, revealing a face that was not Xiuxiu at all, but a flying floc that was one size smaller!

"Princess, do you notice something wrong?"

The flying floc lowered her voice, and every cell in her body was vigilant.

Lin Ruan shook his head, "Not yet, don't worry, everything in this village that can breathe and move is under my control, and there is no problem at present." ”

Flyflock nodded, burying her head back in her cloak.

Because footsteps sounded outside the door, and then, there was movement in the thatched door, and He Junxian's voice came from outside, "Princess, the medicine has been found." ”

Lin Ruan got up and opened the door, glanced at the herbs, nodded and said, "These should be symptomatic, you decoct the medicine first, if not, find a woman in the village to do it for you, don't forget to give the silver." Grab some more food, I'm a little hungry. ”

He Junxian took the order and left, and after a while, he came back with a bowl of very crude food, "The princess, this village is too poor, they only have these things." ”

Lin Ruan didn't dislike it, took the bowl and sat at the door and ate slowly.

The meal was very coarse, and it was porridge made with multigrain noodles mixed with sweet potato leaves, but it tasted good.

Lin Ruan ate half of the bowl of porridge, and the rest was reserved for the "Xiuxiu" in the house.

After the medicine was decocted, Lin Ruan entered the house and quietly poured the medicine into an empty mouse hole.

Fei Xu asked vigilantly, "Princess, is there a problem with the medicine?" ”

Lin Ruan shook his head, "No, you're not sick, what medicine do you take?" ”

After staying in the village for a long time, everything went very smoothly, and when she set off again, Lin Ruan still held "Xiuxiu" tightly in her arms, so that He Junxian and the others felt a little tired and panicked for her.

"Princess, let your subordinates take the second girl to ride a horse, this road is difficult to travel, you will have a hard time taking the second girl."

Lin Ruan's expression relaxed a lot, and said with a smile: "It's okay, this girl has grown up on me since she was a child, I don't dare to say anything else, but holding her to do things will not be affected at all." Alright, we've been delayed for half a day, so let's go. ”

As he spoke, Lin Ruan took the lead in clamping the horse's belly, and the lightning trotted all the way, followed closely behind by He Junxian with the guards.

The group galloped until it was dark, and then stopped in a small town.

The town is not big, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to walk from the head of the town to the end of the town.

Lin Ruan pointed to the only inn in the town and said, "Let's settle here tonight." ”

He Junxian immediately jumped off the horse, went into the store to make arrangements, and came out after a while and said to Lin Ruan: "Princess, there are still two rooms." ”

Lin Ruan nodded, "I live in the same room with Xiuxiu, and you look at the arrangement of the remaining room, and those who can't live in it will be wronged tonight." ”

The guards were busy and not aggrieved.

He Junxian saw that Lin Ruan was about to dismount and stepped forward to help, but Lin Ruan fell to the ground with "Xiuxiu" in his arms very easily, and threw the reins to him by the way, "Let the people in the inn feed the horse well, and in addition, just call me Gongzi." ”

She is now dressed as a man.

"Yes, Childe."

He Junxian asked people to settle the horses, and he followed Lin Ruan into the inn.

The innkeeper was very enthusiastic and led Lin Ruan to see the guest room.

The two rooms are next to each other, separated only by a wall separated by wooden boards, and basically there is a little movement here, and you can hear it clearly next door.

Lin Ruan entered the door and nodded with satisfaction, "This is a lot more convenient, if there is any movement, you can hear it as soon as possible next door." Bring the food to the room, and some water, and I'm going to wash up. Find another Lang Zhong to come over, Xiuxiu's spirit is still not very good, and Lang Zhong must be allowed to take a look. ”

He Junxian immediately went to arrange.

After a simple freshening up, Lang Zhong also came.

Lin Ruan invited Lang Zhong into the house, led him to the side of the bed where the heavy mosquito net was put down, took out the hand of "Xiuxiu", and quickly covered his hand with a handkerchief, and said to Lang Zhong: "Please Mr. take the pulse of my sister." ”

Lang Zhong sat down on the edge of the bed, touched his beard and carefully checked his pulse, and then said, "This Lang Jun, has Ling Mei been frightened in the past two days?" ”

Lin Ruan nodded, "I was frightened on the road last night, and I got hot at dawn. ”

Lang Zhong stroked his beard, "It's okay, it's a small problem, just drink two tranquilizers." ”

He Junxian sent Lang Zhong out and went to the hospital to pick up the medicine by the way.

Lin Ruan's ability followed He Junxian out of the house, watching him follow Lang Zhong to the medical hall, take the medicine back, and send it to the back kitchen to fry, the whole process was not a problem.

The other guards didn't have anything unusual, and Lin Ruan even had some doubts if he was too suspicious and sick.

After dinner, Lin Ruan closed the door and slept with "Xiuxiu, who had drunk medicine".

The next door quickly quieted down.

In the middle of the night, Lin Ruan quietly opened her eyes, because she heard a very slight sound from next door, although it was small, but it did not escape her ears.
