Fang Duruo raised his eyebrows again: "I met a thief that day, if I abandoned you, you would definitely break off relations with me, right?" ”

Jing Xi was stunned when she heard her mention that incident, and suddenly remembered a certain part of the past.

After a while, he said, "No if, in fact, you didn't abandon me." ”

"Then I'll go north next spring to collect toads, do you want to come with me?"

Jing Xi deliberately teased Fang Duruo: "Spring is such a good season, but you want me to trek through mountains and rivers with you, I need to think about it." ”

Fang Duruo curled her lips and smiled: "If you and I hand in the medicine at the beginning of spring tomorrow, we don't have to hand over the military funds for the next year." ”

Jing Xi nodded: "Okay, you successfully persuaded me." ”

……

In March, the warmth is warm.

The ice on the river has broken, and the willows on the banks have pulled out their buds.

Jing Xi was extremely happy because Xiangyun knew more than a hundred words.

Just as happy as she was the villagers of the entire Lotus Village.

Because the old people and children in the family have survived another harsh winter, because the war with the enemy country has been temporarily suspended, and the Qi army will not come to the village to recruit soldiers for the time being.

The past winter was too cold, and Jing Xi stayed at home almost every day, reading medical books around the stove during the day, and sleeping with the Xiangyun stove at night.

Coupled with the cooking skills of the four likes to foul, Jing Xi's chin was fed fat unconsciously.

Now that spring had come, everything was revived, and there was a scene of life everywhere, she was glad that she could finally go out for a walk.

Fang Duruo said that this time he went north to Gonggong Mountain to collect the toad crisp of the toad king.

The toad king is made of condensing the essence of the mountains and forests, drinking the nectar of the clear spring, eating hundreds of insects, hibernating, and experiencing frost and snow for three years on the Gonggong Mountain.

The medicinal value is several times that of ordinary toads, and if you can receive or collect them smoothly this time, you don't have to worry about the amount of toad crisp this year.

After listening to Fang Duruo's introduction, Jing Xi was full of admiration, but he was ashamed.

"I think I've read a lot of medical books in the past year, but I haven't seen any of the books you just mentioned, so it seems that my horizons are still not broad enough, and I should go to more places."

Fang Duruo shook his head: "How can you compare like this? I am the only daughter in my family, and my father raised me as a boy since I was a child. ”

"Since I was a child, my father has trained me to be familiar with medicinal herbs, and I have learned more than twenty years more than you. Even if it's rote memorization, you definitely know more than you. But you're different, you're talented. But if you want to go more, I'm happy to accompany you. ”

In the past year, following Fang Duruo, Jing Xi was just wandering around the sixteen cities of King Qi's fiefdom, and this was the first time he left King Qi's fiefdom to go north.

The scenery in the north is different from the fiefdom of King Qi in the southwest of Xuanguo, where the terrain is flat and open, and the population is more concentrated everywhere, and it looks more prosperous.

The most important thing is that the transportation is convenient and the security is good.

It's like in Anseong, the two of them don't dare to go at night, and they always arrange a time to set off after inquiring about their foothold.

But here, even at night, don't worry so much.

But after walking for more than ten days, Jing Xi retracted these ideas.

Because they encountered a large number of fleeing homeless people on the way.

These displaced people all fled from the north of the Xuan River.

They also suffered a major drought last summer, but the rain there was less than in the Qi King's Realm, and the disaster was even more severe.

Moreover, the weather was bitterly cold last winter, and many of their families were frozen to death and starved to death, and the land has not yet thawed and cannot be cultivated, so they feel that they are about to survive.

So I desperately ran to the place where the Son of Heaven was, there was no grain to open in the place, and there was always a treasury.

The grain they have handed over for so many years has been filled into the treasury.

One by one, as long as they see food, their eyes glow green, and if they encounter a lone passer-by, they will chase the beggars at the least, and snatch and hurt people at the worst.

Jing Xi and Fang Duruo didn't dare to walk with these homeless people, those people were barefoot, and no one was afraid.

Fontayura used some silver to join a dart team.

On this day, the group was going to cross the river.

Wade through this river, you can enter the capital.

Unfortunately, there are also a lot of displaced people gathered along the river, and they also have to cross the river to Beijing. Some of the displaced people are organized, otherwise they would not have made it all the way through the checkpoints of the various cities.

They wanted to rob the boat, and Jing Xi and Fang Duruo were scattered by the homeless people when they got on the boat.

Jing Xi still followed the dart team to the boat that had been booked before, but Fang Duruo was squeezed into another boat by the homeless people.

By the time the two found each other across the vast water, they had already been separated by some distance.

Seeing Fang Duruo going in the opposite direction, Jing Xi beckoned anxiously, hoping to ask Fang Duruo to jump into the water and swim over.

It's a pity that Fang Duruo can't water.

The boatman refused to stop or turn to the shore because there were displaced people wading in the water.

Fang Duruo circled his hand to his mouth and shouted loudly: "There is a small Guan village across the river, go to find the third uncle Guan, it is believed." Let's wait on a first-come, first-served basis. ”

At this moment, Jingxi had no other choice but to stay on the ship.

And the boat that Fonturo was on had already sailed down a tributary and didn't know where it went.

After getting off the boat, Jing Xi successfully found Xiaoguan Village and Third Uncle Guan with the help of the dart team.

This third uncle Guan is a friend that Fang Duruo made when he received medicine, and this time he also heard Fang Duruo mention it when he went north, and he is a very reliable person.

The courtyard of Uncle Guan's house is not small, and there are many female dependents, so Jing Xi was arranged to live there.

In a flash, Jingxi had been in this small village for three days.

Every day of the past three days, Jing Xi was like sitting on pins and needles, afraid that something would happen to Fang Duruo.

In order not to worry too much, Jing Xi found something to do for himself and gave free medical treatment to the locals.

As soon as Jing Xi finished this day, he carried the medicine box and was about to go home, but he was stopped by Guan Xiaowu halfway.

Guan Xiaowu is the child of Uncle Guan's family, and he has been getting along well with Jing Xi in the past few days.

At this moment, he was looking anxious: "Doctor Jing, Doctor Jing, I found a person, he seems to be dying, you can come with me to take a look." ”

Jing Xi hurriedly followed him to turn around, and asked as he walked, "Where is it?" Is there anyone else around him now? ”

Guan Xiaowu shook his head: "No, I know alone, I was there just now." I don't feel like an outcast. ”

"Don't worry about that for now, let's go and see."

The two hurried to the place Guan Xiaowu said, and soon Jing Xi saw a person in the bushes.

She approached and brushed away some dead branches on the ground, but she never expected that what she saw was a familiar face!
