Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Old Affair

I took the military documents, carefully checked the signatures and seals, put the documents away properly, and said, "Thank you, General." ”

Ah Chu, Xin Yi and Sun Zhongjing also thanked one after another.

Lin Yi didn't seem to want to bother us anymore, so he took a military book at random and flipped through it: "If there is nothing else, you can go to the stable and lead the horse on the road!" ”

I remembered Sun Shujing's words, and said busily: "There is one thing. ”

"Say."

"The military doctor who took us into the camp before said that the general had injured his muscles and bones in the early years of combat and fell ill, and I could also know a thing or two when I saw the general walking, and I was willing to try to treat the general."

"You don't have to worry about this!" Lin Yi didn't raise his head, and there seemed to be irritability in his voice.

I decided to make one last effort: "Because the place we are going to is at war, maybe I will die there, so we want to treat the general now, otherwise there is no chance?" ”

Lin Yi's movement of flipping through the book suddenly stopped.

"General Lin, why are you still motionless?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Lin Yi's old wounds were on his legs, and when he pulled up his trouser legs, hideous scars appeared in front of him, and Xin Yi couldn't help frowning.

Lin Yi's attitude was very indifferent, as if the injury was not on his own leg: "Doctor Shen, how is it?" ”

I diagnosed him, but I was surprised by the results. I organized the language and asked tentatively, "How did the general's leg hurt in the first place, can I tell me about it?" ”

Lin Yi didn't care: "It's inconvenient, five years ago, there was no return to the valley, I was the deputy general of the first Dingyuan general Gu Chenyuan, and later the Dingyuan general was martyred in the Wuhui Valley, although I picked up a life, but was captured by the northern dogs, they tortured me Gu Jiajun's military secrets, I didn't want to confide and was tortured by them, and then it was now the loyal general Gu Chenyi who raided the Beirong camp and rescued me." ”

"On that day, I only said that my legs were useless, and all my thoughts were lost, but it was my wife who took care of me day and night, plus the old master of the imperial doctor Gu family, who was the head of the retired Tai Hospital, to treat my bones, so I saved my legs and this life."

Such a tragic past, but he said it calmly. But I'm not in the mood to praise his integrity at the moment: "The general's leg was broken by some kind of torture device, which I have already seen, but after the bone grafting, someone should have put a drug that blocked the meridians in the general's medicine to cause such obvious sequelae, otherwise such a clever bone grafting technique should not have fallen on such a root of the disease." ”

Lin Yi's hand suddenly clenched into a fist.

Sun Zhongjing also leaned down to check Lin Yi's legs: "Indeed, it's a pity that the time has passed so long that I can't tell what medicine was used." ”

Lin Yi seemed to be trying to suppress some emotions, and finally, he let go of his fist and said, "I'm used to it, if it can't be treated, it's nothing, it's just that Dr. Shen has worked hard this time." ”

I noticed the loss between his eyebrows, and said, "I just told you about your injury, and I didn't say that it can't be cured, no matter how long it is, it will only relax the muscles, activate the blood, dispel blood stasis and strengthen the bones, but the recovery will be slower." ”

"Thank you so much Dr. Shen!" A light flashed in Lin Yi's eyes.

"I have already given you acupuncture, and the dosage and usage of these internal and external medicines have also been written, and then ask someone to catch them according to the prescription when they are used up, but it is more convenient to ask your subordinates or wives to help with this potion to soak old wounds." After the last stitch was applied to Lin Yi's leg, the sky was already full of stars outside the tent. Achu and Sun Zhongjing were outside the tent asking the soldiers for advice on military maps.

"I can send a team of soldiers to escort you to Dasheng Pass, where the poisoners first appeared." Lin Yi said in a deep voice.

"If you don't have a shortage of guards at the pass, and I have the ability to make your soldiers listen to me, then we're more than willing to laugh at it." Sun Zhongjing poked his head in and said, "However, the four of us have only learned a little from your cavalry even on horseback, and we don't know if we can afford to pay if we lose our horses." ”

"Bah, don't say that." I hurriedly stopped him and pushed his head out: "If I really lose the borrowed war horse, I will have to sell the house!" ”

Xin Yi suddenly asked on the side: "By the way, what happened to that Cao Xuan, won't he still be angry with us, right?" ”

Achu's voice came into the camp tent very clearly: "When he sees me, he walks around, I can only apologize to him from afar, if I can come back later, I can find a way to buy something to apologize to him." ”

Lin Yi sighed inaudibly: "Everyone, these are trivial matters, and it is a big thing for you to come back alive." ”

I said, "Your lieutenant is ...... was a little stupid, so he was held hostage by us, but this is more shameful after all, and it is a big deal for him to be a son of a family. If we weren't leaving tonight, it would be fine for him to scold us. ”

Lin Yi: "......"

Cao Xuan sat in his tent, although he already knew all the causes and consequences, but being kidnapped by a nameless villain and being reprimanded by Lin Yi for impulsiveness and unscrupulousness still made him full of anger in his heart for the three women and one man who didn't know what to do.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he was thinking about going out to find someone to settle the account, but his soldiers suddenly came to report - the person who held him hostage borrowed two horses to go to Dasheng Pass to save people.

He is a concubine, he has not been treated by his father and eldest wife since he was a child, and his brother also looks down on him, but he can't read well, and he only loves to dance with guns and sticks.

He wanted his aunt to live without swallowing her anger, so knowing that the British duke and his father were not dealing with each other, he still came to Gu Jiajun to register.

His father was furious, but he didn't care, because he finally had a name from his father. It's a pity that he was a little less talented in fighting after all, and in the end, he became a nominal deputy general in the rear troops of the Gu family's army.

When Lin Yi handed over to him the task of finding someone who could solve the plague in the three passes of Zhenbei, he was also full of ambition at first, but after four liars came in a row, his colleagues' previous secret evaluation of him as "unworthy of the name" seemed to be on the surface, and his impatience also reached its peak.

Therefore, when the old man, who looked like a Beijung, said a bunch of things to him that he did not understand, he decisively drove them out, considering his advanced age, and told the baton beaters to be lighter and not to kill them.

So, when four men dressed in extremely poor clothes walked in, he immediately decided that this was the sixth group of liars, and perhaps he had decided to give up on the matter at that timeβ€”

Anyway, the plague didn't come, and it wasn't him who died anyway.

He doesn't have to go to the front to fight anyway, does he?

Then, after embarrassing him, the four "crooks" ran to Dashengguan to die, and borrowed two horses.

He felt that these four guys would definitely suffer a lot along the way, so he would "get revenge".

However, he thought about what would happen if they did meet the Tartars, especially since there were three young girls inside......

One of them also shouted to him from afar with his big eyes: "General Cao, I'm sorry, if I can come back from the Great Victory Pass, I will give you a gift to make amends!" He was laughed at by the soldiers around him who were witnessing everything.

Cao Xuan suddenly felt indescribable irritability and panic, and he slammed himself into the bed and buried his head in the quilt.
