Chapter 494: Domesticating the Dead

The writer worked tirelessly to travel thousands of miles to deliver the letters from Xiao Li and Hui Shangyi to comfort the Wu family, and sent back the news that Hui Yuzhong mentioned leading the Wu family to garrison the frontier.

Garrisoning the frontier and enduring barrenness and desolation must be much more boring than the days in the General's Mansion in the past.

But judging from the current situation, perhaps this is the best choice, not only to dispel the emperor's suspicion of the Wu family, but also to let the Wu family live unharmed in the future.

Seeing that the pen was slightly tired, Hui Shangyi waved his hand lightly and motioned for him to step back first, "Hold the pen, you have a bumpy road, go and rest as soon as possible." ”

There is no refusal to write, after all, he has indeed been able to go back and forth in such a short period of time by working day and night.

After the pen left, Hui Shangyi asked Xiao Li for his opinion on this matter. "Li Li, what do you think of this decision now?"

In fact, when Xiao Li learned that the Six Princes were targeting the Wu Clan everywhere, he only felt that this was the most correct choice today, not only to avoid the sharp edge of the Six Princes, but also to reduce a lot of trouble, and also to allow the Wu Clan and Hui Yuzhong to deepen their friendship with each other.

Xiao Li raised his finger to his lips, thought for a moment, and told his thoughts truthfully, "Shang Yi, in my opinion, it is the best decision for my mother to go to the frontier to garrison. ”

The Wu clan has always been a particularly strong character, and if he continues to go out with the six princes, he is afraid that he will still be suppressed and targeted everywhere.

Instead of being wronged, it is better to stay away from the capital and away from the hustle and bustle.

"You should also know that my mother's temperament has always been more anxious, and if she is allowed to stay with the six princes, she may cause some trouble."

Xiao Li's analysis for the Wu clan was very good, and the concern in Hui Shangyi's heart gradually dissipated, and he felt that what Xiao Li said was extremely true.

While talking about this with Hui Shangyi, Xiao Li was tidying up the few herbs in the room.

During this period of time, Xiao Li and Hui Shangyi were busy seeing people, and there were not many original herbs left, and now they also need to collect medicinal materials.

Xiao Li packed up the remaining herbs, turned to look at Hui Shangyi, sighed a little helplessly, and then said, "Shangyi, you will take Xiao Fan to collect some medicinal herbs later, right?" ”

Thinking of the people of Nanban during this period of time, Hui Shangyi had no worries, but agreed without hesitation, "Okay." ”

Although he was relieved by Xiao Li, Xiao Fan was still haunted by the previous events during this time, and he was even more reluctant to go, always feeling that he had dragged Xiao Li and Hui Shangyi down, and even worried that the ghost soldiers would come to the door and hurt the two of them.

When Hui Shangyi went to look for Xiao Fan, he sat alone in the corner in a daze, and his green face was a little worried.

"Xiao Fan, will you go with me to collect some medicinal herbs?"

He didn't get along with Xiao Fan for a long time, but Hui Shangyi could also see that Xiao Fan was indeed a very sincere and sincere child.

Hearing this, Xiao Fan turned his head to look at Hui Shangyi, who didn't know when he came over, thinking that he might attract other ghost soldiers, he hesitated slightly, not knowing whether he should agree to this matter.

Seeing Xiao Fan so hesitant, Hui Shangyi probably guessed his thoughts, "Xiao Fan, we are just going to collect some medicinal herbs, and we will not leave far away." ”

Maybe Xiao Fan trusted Hui Shangyi enough, or maybe Xiao Fan mustered up the courage, he didn't hesitate anymore, just went with Hui Shangyi.

Nanban is a barren land, and herbs here have always been scarce.

After Hui Shangyi left with Xiao Fan, Xiao Li actually had some concerns, she walked back and forth in the room alone, wishing that she could see Xiao Fan and Hui Shangyi coming back from outside safe and sound now.

Just when Xiao Li was worried, Hui Shangyi had already returned with Xiao Fan.

Seeing this unharmed Hui Shangyi and Xiao Fan, Xiao Li didn't care about the fresh herbs in the basket they were carrying.

Xiao Li turned back and forth, carefully looking these two people up and down, making sure that they were safe and sound at the moment, the big stone in her heart just fell, and she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "Shang Yi, Xiao Fan, you can be regarded as back." ”

Sensing that Xiao Li's face was full of nervousness and concern, Hui Shangyi just chuckled and reached out to rub her head, "We're fine." ”

But remembering what Xiao Li had explained at the beginning, Hui Shangyi took off the basket and said a little embarrassed, "Li Li, Xiao Fan and I didn't find any fresh herbs outside, and now we are back empty-handed." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Li shook his head without caring at all, "It's okay, it's enough for you to come back safe and sound." ”

Seeing that Xiao Li had no intention of pursuing it, Xiao Fan glanced at the two people who were standing outside and Xu is restrained, and took the lead in introducing Xiao Li, "Sister, when we went to pick herbs, we met two people, his name is Shen Mo, and that is Sister Ah Huan." ”

Before seeing Shen Mo, Xiao Li didn't have any worries, just chuckled and nodded.

But when she met Shen Mo's eyes, her eyes still sank, and her face gradually became solemn.

Sensing that something was wrong with Xiao Li's condition, Hui Shangyi gently raised his hand and held her little hand, "Li Li, what's wrong with you?" ”

When Hui Shangyi and Xiao Fan met Shen Mo and Ah Huan who were in a depressed situation by chance, they didn't care about anything and directly brought the two of them back, but at the moment, Xiao Li's demeanor clearly revealed complex emotions.

Xiao Li obviously didn't expect that Shen Mo would be in the same situation as Xiao Fan.

Shen Mo has always been vigilant, and when he noticed Xiao Li's expression, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to block Ah Huan's face, and unnaturally took two steps back, keeping a distance from him.

He pursed his lips, stared at Xiao Li, lowered his voice as much as possible and comforted, "Ah Huan, you don't have to be afraid, I will protect you." ”

Xiao Li didn't target Shen Mo, but found that Shen Mo's symptoms were similar to Xiao Fan's, and he felt that the current problem was a bit tricky.

She realized that Shen Mo had misunderstood, or put away the surprise in her eyes, and explained unhurriedly, "Shen Mo, I didn't mean to target you, but I didn't expect to meet someone similar to Xiao Fan's symptoms, so I was a little surprised for a while." ”

Ah Huan, who was originally protected by Shen Mo, gently raised his hand to cover the back of Shen Mo's hand, smiled at him, and saw Shen Mo withdraw his hand, Ah Huan walked in front of Xiao Li.

Ah Huan took a deep breath, knelt down in front of Xiao Li with a plop, and opened his mouth with a respectful request, "Divine doctor, please save him." ”

Previously, Ah Huan had heard that others had mentioned Xiao Li, but now the moment he saw Xiao Li, he almost decided that Xiao Li was a medicine girl who was rumored to be like a fairy in everyone's mouth.

Xiao Li didn't think about the current situation at all, she couldn't care about anything, and stepped forward in a panic to help Ah Huan up, "Girl, what are you doing here, no matter what you have to do, you should get up first." ”

Ah Huan's eyes were full of tears, and when he looked at Xiao Li, he seemed to pin all his last hopes on Xiao Li.

She said in a slightly choked voice, "Shen Mo and I are childhood sweethearts, and we are married together at the behest of our parents." ”

After a slight pause, Ah Huan said again, "But Shen Mo used to be a Nanban soldier, I don't know why, now he always gets sick at every turn, and sometimes even I can't recognize it." ”

Hearing Ah Huan mention such a situation, Shen Mo narrowed his eyes, and his face became more and more gloomy.

He loves Ah Huan deeply, but since he has experienced so many things, Shen Mo even doubts whether he shouldn't stay by Ah Huan's side.

In fact, Xiao Li could understand the current situation, she sighed softly, and let Ah Huan and Shen Mo come in and sit down on the chair, "You are all innocent people. ”

Seeing this, Hui Shangyi understood that Xiao Li was going to see Shen Mo, and he was extremely cooperative to take the medicine box for Xiao Li and help Xiao Li on the side.

Previously, Shen Mo's condition was always uncontrollable, and he didn't know when it would break out.

Judging from the current situation, Xiao Li could only temporarily seal Shen Mo's acupoint with a silver needle, lest he would hurt the innocent when he broke out.

"I will use a silver needle to seal the acupuncture point for you temporarily, so that your condition can be suppressed for the time being."

Shen Mo was no longer as defensive about Xiao Li as he was at the beginning, he just nodded lightly and turned to look at his favorite wife.

Afraid that Ah Huan would be worried, Shen Mo still raised his hand to hold Ah Huan's hand, and lowered his voice, "Ah Huan, it's okay, I'll be fine." ”

Fortunately, Xiao Li had a precedent for diagnosing and treating Xiaofan before, and it was not particularly difficult to diagnose and treat Shen Mo.

Shen Mo, who had sealed the acupoint, turned a little pale, Ah Huan's heart tightened in distress, and his eyes turned unnaturally red.

Xiao Li understood that the two of them loved each other deeply, and asked Xiao Fan to lead Shen Mo and Ah Huan to the back room to rest.

After making sure that the three of them had left, Xiao Li showed a cold face, she clenched her fists tightly and slammed them on the table, her heart was full of anger, but there was nowhere to go, and she felt that those people were cold-blooded and ruthless.

Xiao Li never hid anything in front of Hui Shangyi, and he never disliked it, but felt more and more sorry for Xiao Li.

Hui Shangyi took Xiao Li's soft and slender hand and gently rubbed the palm that was already red, "Li Li, what are you doing?" ”

"In the past, Dugu Yin cultivated ghost soldiers, but now in order to be able to defeat, Nanban has cultivated dead soldiers to compete with ghost soldiers."

Thinking of Shen Mo and Xiao Fan's almost identical condition, Xiao Li narrowed his eyes, and his voice became colder and colder, "If my guess is right, the dead soldiers of Nanban are borrowed from Dugu Yin's method of cultivating ghost soldiers, so it will cause Shen Mo and Xiao Fan's conditions to be similar." ”
