The three of them hurried slowly, and soon came to the river before.

Qin Fan took a step forward and pointed to the emerald green that had just sprouted: "That's it!"

Sun Simiao immediately plucked a piece, gently crushed it, and placed it on the tip of his nose.

But except for the smell of grass juice, there was no smell of what Qin Fan said.

He could only shake his head and say, "This is Artemisia annua, not Artemisia annua as Mr. Qin said."

Qin Xiaobai's face fell, and when he thought of his father who was bedridden, tears filled his eyes again.

"Don't be in a hurry to be sad yet, there are quite a few nearby, maybe there is Artemisia annua!"

Qin Fan said.

Qin Xiaobai followed what Qin Fan was pointing at, and it was a clump of artemisia annua.

She hurriedly sniffled, withdrew the tears that were about to fall, and trotted over.

"Yes! It smells!" Qin Xiaobai exclaimed.

Qin Fan and Sun Simiao hurried over.

Qin Fan grabbed the leaf in the girl's hand and sniffed it, and it was the smell of yellow artemisia.

"Yes! That's it! Go back to Daocheng Cao Juice and give it to the old general Qin, just do it!"

Qin Xiaobai was excited, his father was finally saved!

But he also noticed Qin Fan, who grabbed his wrist, and suddenly stared.

And Sun Simiao also looked at the hands of the two of them, revealing an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Qin Fan realized it at this time, and hurriedly put down the girl's hand, coughing twice to hide his embarrassment.

"Without further ado, it's important to save people, since we've found Artemisia annua, let's go back quickly!"

Several people collected some yellow artemisia, and Qin Xiaobai held the herbs tightly in his arms, this is his father's life!

Maybe it was because he was excited, or maybe he was engrossed in the herbs in his arms, Qin Xiaobai stepped on the air and stepped on a hole covered by grass, and let out a coquettish cry.

Hearing this, Qin Fan hurriedly turned his head.

I saw that the girl's brows were tightly locked, and she was holding her left leg with a painful expression.

Sun Simiao also hurriedly stepped forward to check.

Lifting his trouser legs, he saw that Qin Xiaobai's white ankles were bulging with purple and blue lumps.

It's very glaring.

After checking it out, Sun Simiao breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"It's okay, it's just a sprained leg, just a few days of rest. I just can't move around for the time being."

Qin Fan was stunned: "Then how should she go back?"

Qin Xiaobai gritted his teeth, handed the yellow artemisia to Sun Simiao, and said:

"Doctor Sun, you go first, go and save my father first, I'm fine here alone!"

Hearing this, Sun Simiao frowned and said, "Nonsense, you are a girl's family, and you are alone in this wilderness, how unsafe it is!"

However, Qin Xiaobai stubbornly said, "When you go back, inform the people in the house, those uncles and uncles will come to pick me up!"

"That won't work either! How can I leave you here alone?" Sun Simiao still refused, he knew the danger of a young girl left here alone.

Especially Qin Xiaobai was also injured, if he encountered a villain, he could only be slaughtered!

"Alas!"

Qin Fan had no choice but to lean down, grab the girl's legs, and with some skill, the girl lay on his back.

Qin Xiaobai was caught off guard, only to feel a tightness in his chest, and when he came back to his senses, he was already lying on Qin Fan's back.

Her face suddenly turned red, and she slapped Qin Fan's back with both hands: "What are you going to do, let me go quickly."

When Qin Fan heard this, he didn't care about it: "If you make trouble again, we will really leave you in this wilderness."

"If you encounter poisonous snakes and beasts, it's better to say, if you meet a villain, you are such a smart little girl...... Tsk!"

"Hooligans!" Qin Xiaobai scolded.

But thinking of the situation Qin Fan said, he was also afraid for a while.

Qin Fan shrugged his shoulders: "It's okay for you to be a hooligan, if you don't want me to go back on my back, then come down!"

「

Come down, come down!" Qin Xiaobai said.

Qin Fan squatted down and put the girl on the ground.

But as soon as he touched the ground, Qin Xiaobai suddenly felt a tingling pain from his ankle, and he screamed in pain.

Sun Simiao shook his head helplessly: "Mr. Qin, don't be angry with this little girl, hurry up and go back and save General Qin first!"

Qin Fan nodded, picked up Qin Xiaobai again, and walked forward.

This time, Qin Xiaobai was a lot more honest.

Back in the small courtyard of the Qin Mansion, Qin Fan disposed of the medicine and handed it to Qin Xiaobai.

Qin Xiaobai took the medicine and helped Qin Qiong to feed it.

After everything was done, Qin Xiaobai's legs were also covered with herbs.

She looked at Qin Fan and asked softly, "This artemisinin, can really save my father?"

Qin Fan spread his hands: "Your father is suffering from malaria, and this Artemisia annua can naturally cure it. It's just that I just looked closely, but there are countless scars on his body."

"I'm afraid these old injuries have caused a lot of burden on his body."

Hearing this, Qin Xiaobai's eyes were also moist, and he said bitterly in his heart:

"In his early years, my father followed His Majesty to the Eastern Expedition and the Northern War, and experienced more than 800 battles, large and small, and his body was naturally scarred."

"Sometimes it's raining and wet, and the wound hurts faintly!"

Hearing this, Qin Fan remembered the life experience of this Qin Shubao.

Qin Qiong was originally a general of the Sui Dynasty.

Then he defected to Wagangzhai.

After the defeat of Wagangzhai, he led the troops under Wang Shichong.

But Wang Shichong was cunning, and Qin Qiong disdained his character, so he and Cheng Yanjin defected to Li Yuan and Li Shimin's father and son.

Later, he followed Li Jiannan to fight in the north and made great contributions to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.

After the establishment of the dynasty, after the change of Xuanwumen, Qin Qiong has been sick at home and rarely goes to court.

Only when there is an occasional war will it appear in the court.

Of course, this is also Qin Qiong's wisdom.

After all, the Tang Dynasty was first established, and the world was basically peaceful.

Compared with the generals who use soldiers to fight, what Li Shimin needs more at this time is undoubtedly a civil servant who can recuperate in peace.

Therefore, Qin Qiong can be regarded as a brave retreat from the rapids.

But what people don't know is that although the injury is Qin Qiong's excuse, it is also his real situation.

Indeed, over the years, Qin Qiong has been overwhelmed by these old injuries.

Even a single malaria made him linger for a long time at the ghost gate.

Qin Fan took out a bottle from his arms and hesitated.

But thinking about Qin Qiong's contribution to the Tang Dynasty, he finally poured out a milky white and somewhat crystal clear pill from the bottle and handed it to Qin Xiaobai.

"What is this?" Qin Xiaobai asked about the medicinal fragrance wafting in the air, with a surprised expression on his face.

"You don't need to know what it is, just know that it heals your father's old wounds!"

Qin Fan casually handed over the pill.

"Alright, your father's medicine has been used, and the next thing is up to him."

"Someone in my family cooks and waits for me to go back, so I will take my leave!"

After that, Qin Fan turned around and left, his free and easy back did not look nostalgic.

In fact, Qin Fan was very painful.

That's a pill made of 10,000-year-old stalactites!
