============================
Zeqi lay down, the village chief unfastened his chest clothes for him and took out the old herbs, while Ji'er immediately wrung out the hot towel in the basin and carefully scrubbed him with the medicine scraps on his chest.
Zeqi watched the grandfather and grandson busy with their work, and in addition to gratitude or thanks, they also thanked them for taking care of them in the past two days.
"Zeqi, are you better?" the village chief asked.
"Well, it's much better. Thank you. ”
"If you hadn't been looking for the missing child in our village, you wouldn't have been hurt. The village chief said.
Zeqi was ashamed, he didn't dare to tell them that the mercenary team didn't care about finding the child at all.
"Brother Zeqi, have you found any trace of my brother Dick?" asked Ji'er, the towel in her hand gently rubbing it over Zeqi's body.
"Brother, is the Dick in your mouth your own brother in the missing child?"
"Yes. ”
Ji'er nodded, a sad expression on her face. Zeqi saw it in his eyes, his heart seemed to be twisted, he wanted to help him, but his ability was limited after all.
"There's no clue yet, it's ...... I'm sorry. Zeqi replied sadly, remembering the faint shouts he had heard in the Misty Forest. Was it an auditory hallucination, or was it real? Could it be related to the missing child? Why did Angus say they hadn't heard it?, Zech thought to himself.
But at this moment, a woman's cry came from outside the door.
"Woooooooooo......oo Mercenary, you must help me find my son, you must help me find my son...... Woowoo woo ......"
"Okay, I've said it so many times, we'll help you find it. Angus exclaimed impatiently.
Zeqi saw that the village elder shook his head helplessly and walked out, and at this time, Ji'er, who was scrubbing his wounds, had tears in his eyes, and after a while, the tears dripped on Zeqi's body.
Then, the village chief's vicissitudes of voice came from outside the door, "Enough, don't disturb Lord Angus and Miss Aurora." ”
"Woo woo woo ......"
The village chief continued, "I'm sorry to disturb you, Lord Angus, Miss Aurora. ”
"Hmm. Angus said.
"Oh, that's okay. Aurora said.
Then Zeqi heard their footsteps leaving, and after a while he heard the village chief say, "Get up, don't kneel, I know you want Dick, and we all want to, but if you make the mercenaries anxious, they won't help us find them." ”
"Uh-huh, woo-woo-woo......"
"Let's go, I'll take you back to your room. ”
Ji'er didn't scrub Zeqi's wounds anymore at this time, but turned her head to wipe her tears. Zeqi wanted to say something, but he didn't, but stared at the ceiling in a daze.
"Mom, you must be thinking about me, right? You must not know that I almost died just the other day. Then you'll never see me again, aren't you like Ji'er's mother......"
Zeqi didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"Did I really make the right decision, was I really right?" Zech kept asking himself.
The village chief, who re-entered, interrupted Zeqi's thoughts, and he asked Shangji'er to continue changing Zeqi's dressing.
After changing the medicine, the village chief left with the medicine and basin, but Ji'er was asked by Zeqi to stay.
"Ji'er, can you do me a favor?" Zeqi asked.
Ji'er readily agreed, and seemed to feel happier when she heard Zeqi say that she wanted her to help.
"Can you help me find a pot full of dirt?" Zeqi said.
"Oh, good. ”
Although she was a little confused, Ji'er still didn't ask the reason, but immediately ran out, and walked in with a flower pot after a while.
"Do you want to grow something?" asked Ji'er curiously.
"Yes. ”
Zeqi took out half of the wilting thorn vines and some enchanted grass seeds from the burden next to the bed and handed them to Ji'er.
The thorny vine moved in Ji'er's hand, but it wilted again.
"Ahh
Zeqi didn't expect the dying thorny vine to still move, he called Ji'er to help, just to see if he could save it.
"I'm sorry to scare you. ”
"No, it doesn't matter. What is it?" said Ji'er, steady.
In general, she believed that Zeqi would not harm her, so she was still relieved about what he gave her.
"It's a thorny vine of the magic plant, and normally it wraps around objects that come close to it. But it's dying now, and it's only half a bit, so you shouldn't be a threat. Zeqi explained.
"Oh," Ji'er asked, looking curiously at the thorny vine in her hand, "are you going to plant it and revive it?"
"Hmm. Don't underestimate it, it's all thanks to it this time, and I've saved a life. ”
"Really?" "Ji'er became more and more curious about the thorn vines in her hand, and she couldn't imagine how a single plant could save a person's life in battle.
She picked up the soil from the flower pot and carefully planted the thorny vines.
"Hehe," Zech laughed, "and it saved my mother." ”
"So amazing? Brother Zeqi, tell me about it. Ji'er became excited, completely free of the sorrow she had just now.
"Okay. ”
Zeqi watched Ji'er go about her work while telling her story about the thorn vines, and Ji'er also listened to it with relish.
Once Ji'er had planted the thorn vines and enchanted grass seeds, Zeki began to gather his magic and chant the spell of plant growth.
This is the second time Ji'er has watched someone cast a magic spell, and this time, she is even more excited than the first time she saw it.
After a while, a green, glowing magic array swirled and fell into the pot until it was completely submerged in the soil.
An ordinary plant growth spell can only be applied to one plant at a time, so next, Zeqi cast several plant growth spells in a row to act on the seeds of the enchanted grass.
"Ahem!ahem!" Zeqi clutched his chest and coughed a few times, casting a few spells was very mentally draining on him.
"Brother Zeqi, are you alright? Ji'er cared as she stroked his back.
"It's okay, I used my magic just now, and I drained my energy, causing a dull pain in my chest. Zeqi said.
"Then lie down and rest. Ji'er urged.
"Don't worry, my injury doesn't matter, I can't die, but it's dying. I'm going to attach some magical elements to it that are in harmony with myself. After Zeqi finished speaking, he stiffened his body and began to condense and filter the wood attribute magic elements.
Ji'er had no choice but to stand aside and watch.
Quietly looking at the injured Zeqi condensing the magic elements and concentrating, Ji'er's heart rippled......
"It's so affectionate and righteous to a plant. If you ...... to people"
Ji'er's eyes were moist, and she didn't know why she was crying.
