Chapter 23: Evacuation

With a stick of incense, Xiaohuo healed two wounds, and two blood crystals also reached her stomach. Then I went back to sleep.

Qian Scarlet looked at the still injured ankle and breathed a sigh of relief. She untied the strip of cloth that was tied to her ankle, which she had cut off the burden of. Because the ankle injury had been dragging on for twenty days, if it hadn't been forcibly wrapped in a cloth, she was afraid that the wound would scare Qianmo.

Qian Scarlet's ankles were severely swollen because of the wrapping of the strips of cloth. The breach had already suppurated, and the strip of cloth was still carrying pus and rotten flesh when it was removed.

"It hurts!" She snorted softly, as if such a relaxed sigh could alleviate her pain, "Xiaohuo, you have to wake up quickly, otherwise this bone will rot." ”

She re-wrapped the strips of cloth and took them to the kitchen stove to burn. Just hold on for another five days, and after five days, you'll be cured. She decided to teach Qianmo to stand first after she recovered, and then lit wolf smoke and waited for rescue.

If she really can't wait, she can think about it. After Xiaohuo helped her heal her injuries, she took Xiaohuo and Qianmo out together. There are small fires, and the general danger should not hurt them. However, there is a risk of exposing small fires.

Therefore, waiting for rescue is still her first choice. In this life, she doesn't want to live like that in her previous life, absolutely not!

"Dad, mother, Yue'er will be able to see you soon......" In a happy mood, Qian Feiyue slept well.

"Yue'er!" An exclamation rang out, piercing the silence of the night.

"Madam......" Qian Chenhua opened his eyes and saw Shangguan Lanling wake up from the nightmare again. He stood up and put his arm around her shoulder, "Madam, did you dream of Yue'er again?" ”

"Husband......" Shangguan Lanling turned his head, and tears began to roll around. She leaned into Qian Chenhua's arms, wiped her tears and asked, "It's been twenty days, why is there no news?" ”

"Hey......" Qian Chenhua sighed, he knew very well in his heart that Yue'er was probably more than lucky.

Today, the emperor asked about this matter again, and vaguely revealed a meaning, if you can't find it again, give up. The Yulin Army is guarding the capital, and if they have been looking for it for so long, it can be regarded as an explanation to the Duke of Zhenguo.

The fact that there has been no response to the bounty order for so long will make the people question the ability of the imperial court. You can't deceive the people, so you can only let this matter fade away. The matter of arresting and finding people can only be carried out in secret.

"Madame, don't worry, you'll find it!" Qian Chenhua hugged Shangguan Lanling and patted her like a child until she slowly fell asleep.

The next day, the Yulin army in Soushan withdrew. Shangguan Hero was still in the capital, and when he heard the news, he almost smashed the table of Yin Bao in Jingzhao Mansion.

"My lord, are our people also retreating?" Yu Yong, a confidant of the guard, asked the Shangguan hero in the carriage.

"Smack!" There was a sound of the handrail breaking from the carriage, "Keep looking for Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu's granddaughter, even if she dies at the ends of the earth, Lao Tzu will bring her bones back." ”

"Yes!" Yu Yong was also depressed in his heart, they all followed the old general for half their lives, and defended the Great Yan Kingdom for decades. Now he can't even save the general's granddaughter, which is really infuriating.

"Wait!" Shangguan Hero shouted to Yu Yong, "Withdraw all the teams on the face, and leave only my guards to look for them secretly." ”

"My lord......" The old general's words made Yu Yong feel a trace of sadness in the twilight of the hero. He knew that after the death of the first emperor, although the old general was made the Duke of Zhenguo, he was guarded by the new emperor.

The old general Gao Fengliang not only handed over the handsome seal, but also took the initiative not to ask about the government. But in the million Yan army, at least half of the generals have followed him. What if there is no handsome seal? If he openly confronted the new emperor at this time, everything before would have been sacrificed in vain.

“…… Be! Yu Yong nodded and took the order.

The carriage drove slowly and headed for the courtyard where Shangguan Hero lived outside the city.

A spring rain, a dream. When the day dawned, the people of the capital still started a busy day. On the notice board at the entrance of the vegetable market, the reward order that had been hanging for 20 days was blown off wet because of the drizzle overnight. Then they were trampled under the feet of passers-by who were hurrying in the rain, crushed, scattered in the dirt, and never to be found again.

The continuous Xiangshan outside the city has also been washed away by a continuous spring rain, and at the same time, it has also washed away the traces of people that have faded away.

This rain moistened all things, filled the mountains with fresh vitality, but made Qian Scarlet Yue's heart as cloudy as this weather.

"Ahh Qian Crimson Moon looked up to the sky and sighed, this was the umpteenth time she had sighed in a few days. When she had slept well the night before because of the wound on her hand, she woke up and was disturbed by the wet firewood outside.

To make matters worse, she was looking forward to the sun coming out day by day, but every day she opened the door it was raining. Even Qianmo felt her depression and sat quietly beside her to watch the rain with her.

"Hey......" Qian Feiyue sighed, collected her mood, and turned to Qianmo, "Qianmo, I'll teach you how to use chopsticks." ”

She shoved two twigs into his hands and let him learn to hold them on his own.

Because of the exercise in the past ten days, Qianmo has become accustomed to doing some things with his hands. So he also learned chopsticks very quickly, taught in the morning, and was able to pick up green dates with chopsticks at noon.

"Qianmo, when the rain stops, we'll go catch fish!" Qian Scarlet sat on a chair and helped him comb his hair. It changes. There are no other things, but the bronze mirror, comb, hair band and so on are complete.

"Hiss......" She shuddered at the thought of the scene in front of the mirror.

"Hmm!" Qian Mo could now understand some simple words, and Qian Scarlet Moon believed that he only understood catching fish. It rained continuously, and the firewood was wet, and the fire was not renewed, but was extinguished. The fish grilled before was also eaten, and she didn't worry about letting Qianmo go out to find something, so she could only eat the green dates she had stored.

She is only three years old now, and her fingers are short and fat, and it is really difficult to grab his hair. Qian Scarlet Moon gave him a simple high ponytail, and she couldn't do it if it was difficult.

After combing her hair, she pulled his body over and made him look at her.

"Qianmo, you have to learn to speak, so I can know what you want to say." Qian Crimson Moon nodded at him, "Qianmo! Then he nodded to himself: "Qian Crimson Moon, Moon!" ”

She slowly made him look at the shape of his mouth, repeating several times: "Moon ......"

Qianmo's lips pursed, and there was a sound rolling in his throat, but his mouth couldn't come out.

"Don't worry, let's take our time." Qian Feiyue had taught him over and over again, and she could feel Qian Mo's recent progress. Not only the habits of movement, but also the language and thinking, he has learned more and more quickly what he says or gestures, but he does not know how to speak himself.
