Chapter Thirty-Nine: Why Should We Have Acquaintances?
After the careful care of the little doctor, the wounds on Yan Zheng's body quickly began to heal, and the strength of the red yarn Bodhi had not yet fully recovered, but the wisps of scarlet blood gas flowing from the heart had begun to repair the broken meridians in Yan Zheng's body.
In order to avoid more than half of the doctors killed and injured like the last time the demon beast attacked the tent where the doctor lived, when the camp was set up this time, the tent where the doctor lived was specially arranged near the Luojia carriage, which was located in the center of the camp, and had the protection of the Luojia monks and forwards, so that the same tragedy would not happen again, and the tents of Yan Zheng and the wounded were arranged next to the doctor's tent to facilitate the doctors to take care of the wounded.
There were not many people in the tent, less than ten seriously wounded people like Yan Zheng who needed to be bedridden, and those with less serious injuries were still working with others in the team, but they had to come to the tent from time to time to change dressings, and the little doctor was busy dealing with these lightly injured patients most of the time, and only had time to take care of them at night.
Next to Yan Zheng was a young soldier with a hole in his abdomen, when he was just sent over, he was still alive and well, and he kept saying that this small injury was nothing, and he would continue to go to the battlefield after healing the injury, but even after emergency treatment, the huge wound on his abdomen was still infected in the changing environment, and the young soldier was only awake for less than two days, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Yan Zheng guessed that he had a high fever, because he would say some vague words from time to time, because of the lack of medical treatment, high fever and coma in the secluded realm are fatal, this young soldier may not survive the day they return, those vague words Yan Zheng only understood a rough idea, he is apologizing to his mother, saying that he should not go against his mother's wishes to enter the army, he hopes that his mother can forgive him, he may never return home.
The others were not much better than this young soldier, the soldier opposite Yan Zheng had his throat cut in half, the sound of every breath was like pulling a broken blower, and the other soldier diagonally opposite had both legs amputated, without enough painkillers, he kept wailing all night, he tried to commit suicide several times, but was found by the doctor in time and failed, Yan Zheng knew that he was now enduring unbearable pain for ordinary people, but he couldn't really do anything for him.
During Yan Zheng's recuperation, Yang Shen came to him in the tent to learn more about the team's actions, except for the fact that he was carrying a red yarn Bodhi that needed to be concealed, other things Yan Zheng told him about it, from them tracking the traces left by the hunters, to witnessing the strange sacrificial rituals, to sending a signal to be discovered by Tai Chang, and then fighting to the death with the believers, and was defeated by the wrestlers who arrived, and then Shen Dutong basically knew what happened after that, so Yan Zheng said that he was already in a coma at that time, and he didn't know what was happening. Naturally, they covered up the things that killed too often.
General Yang did not doubt, after all, his duty is to understand the situation as clearly as possible, other things are not within the scope of his consideration, he had already gone to find the imprisoned Ji Wu Chang, Ji Wu Chang's situation is not optimistic, after waking up, he is still acting crazy, constantly repeating words of unknown meaning in his mouth, and also bitten a number of soldiers who want to bring him food, looking at Ji Wu Chang's current appearance, Yang Shen General is also embarrassed, a few days ago they were still comrades and brothers who fought side by side, Now that he was tortured to the point that he was inhuman, and seeing that he could not learn more from him, General Yang had to order him to be tied up and let the warriors take care of him as much as possible.
After dealing with those believers, there were no monsters attacking in the past few days, and the tasks were carried out in an orderly manner, and the soldiers in charge of construction in the team began to cut down the wood around the camp, preparing to build wooden houses for long-term garrison, these wooden houses are not the usual kind of forest huts, but similar to half of the small fortifications hidden underground, because the geographical location in the secluded realm will change from time to time, so only relatively strong buildings can be used as marks, the internal structure of this small fortification is stable, It won't be damaged much by the wind and sun, and it can be used as a temporary shelter when needed, which is actually very suitable.
In addition to the normal construction of the project, Yan Zheng also paid special attention to the movements of the Luo family, the tent of the wounded was not far from the place where the Luo family was stationed, looking out from the door of the tent, he could just see the open space surrounded by the Luo family's carriage, in the past few days, the Luo family's entourage has been cleaning up the open space until everything is cleaned up.
Then, under the command of a female monk, several monks worked together to move a thick pillar to the clearing, and the steward of the Luo family was also on the scene, but he did not do anything special, just watched from the sidelines, and in the following days, the female monk continued to use a small and delicate instrument to measure the position, and with the help of several monks, adjusted the position of the pillar.
The pillar looked a little familiar, reminding Yan Zheng of the pillars he saw at the junction of the security zone and the danger zone, the surface of the two pillars has golden lines, and the materials of the composition look very similar, that is, there is a big difference in shape, the pillars at the junction are strangely shaped, and the pillar placed by the Luo family is neat, obviously it was disassembled and transported by carriage, and then assembled, the specific details are too far away, Yan Zheng can't see clearly, there is no divine aid, His ability to observe is at the level of ordinary people.
Yan Zheng understood, it turned out that the placement of this pillar was the task of the Luo family's trip, they provided so many materials and equipment, and also spent a lot of silver money to fund the fifty-eighth exploration operation carried out by the Eighth Guard, the ultimate goal was actually just to place a strange pillar in the depths of the dark realm? I don't know what the role of this pillar is, it is worth such a lot of effort from the Luo family, Yan Zheng thought about it for a while, and came to a conclusion, it is His Majesty the Emperor who advocates the exploration action, then the task of the Luo family must also be related to the imperial court, and these pillars must play a role in positioning or marking, so they are so important.
In this way, a lot of things make sense, when the Luo family and his party were stationed in the Eighth Guard, he was still worried that the target of these people was him, but now it seems that it is not, they only chose to cooperate with the Eighth Guard in order to better complete the task, and now the mission is progressing smoothly, and the large army will return in a few days, and when they go back, these people will leave, he will not have much intersection with these people, and naturally he will not be able to expose his identity, and the disappearance of the Luo family scout will not suspect him, There was no need for him to take a great risk to get rid of these people in the dark world.
Thinking about these clearly, Yan Zheng suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, now he doesn't have to think too much, he just needs to focus on cultivating his body, waiting for the strength of the red yarn Bodhi to recover, his merits in this exploration operation are not small, he performed bravely in the battle, and helped the team solve a big hidden danger, after going back, he should be able to accumulate some meritorious deeds, as long as he undertakes some more tasks and continues to accumulate meritorious deeds, then it will not take two years, his merits can be exchanged for a book of exercises for promotion to monks, This is also the most convenient way he can think of to obtain the exercises.
It was almost time for the moon to rise on the branches, the little doctor returned to the tent after a busy day's work, she carefully checked the condition of each wounded, and after confirming that they were all asleep, she quietly walked to Yan Zheng's side, sat down with her legs crossed, she buried her head in her knees, and whispered: "When I used to work, I saw many people sick, like now I really don't see many injured people, but after getting used to it, I don't seem to be so scared, I don't know if I am growing up like this now?" ”
Yan Zheng didn't fall asleep, he lay on the simple bed, quietly looking at the roof of the tent, hearing the words of the little doctor, he was relieved: "I'm not afraid of being embarrassed when I say it, in fact, when I first saw these things, I was also afraid in my heart, but being a soldier has a duty, so I can't be afraid, and then I saw a lot, and gradually I am not afraid, people, there is always a need for a process of adaptation, after this hurdle, even if I grow." ”
"I don't think you're a little older than me, but you seem to know a lot more than I do." "Every time I listen to you, I feel like I'm talking to an elder who knows me well, which is really strange. ”
Yan Zheng laughed and said: "I'm really not old, maybe because I have experienced more things, so I know more truth, I didn't reason with you, I just hope to relieve your pressure a little, although not long has passed, but you are indeed different from when we first met, there is less smile on your face, and you are stronger." ”
"Really, you don't say nice things, I thought you would praise me like the people in town." The little doctor also smiled, but her smile looked a little lonely, "I really don't know when this kind of day will end, I'm a little homesick, I've been out to study for so long, I haven't come home to see it, I don't know what happened to Abba and Mommy." ”
"When we go back, let's both go home and have a look, listen to you say this, I also think I haven't been home for a long time, if we all agree, I also want to go home to see, I wrote a letter to my family before leaving, and now I guess I should also receive a reply." Yan Zheng's mind came up with the appearance of his parents in these two lives, and in a trance, their figures gradually overlapped together, he died young in the previous life, and he didn't know how sad his parents who had raised him for more than 20 years should be, and who should take care of the second elder in the second half of his life? His parents in this life are not in good health, is he caring for them enough?
"Why don't we make an appointment and go home together." The little doctor said suddenly.
Yan Zheng didn't think much about it, and replied casually: "If you stop by the way, it's not impossible." ”
After listening to Yan Zheng's answer, the little doctor raised her head, her beautiful face was very beautiful in the moonlight, and there was indescribable affection in her eyes, with Yan Zheng's company these days, her heart was much warmer, she couldn't figure out what kind of feelings she had for Yan Zheng, the grace of saving her life? Companionship? Or is it simply the true love of sharing adversity? Maybe it's all there.
She leaned in front of Yan Zheng and kissed him lightly on the forehead, then stood up and ran away shyly.
Yan Zheng smiled self-deprecatingly, he was so stupid, couldn't he even see this?
