Xia Chu took out the jade muscle ointment from the package and walked to the bed inside the screen.
"Master, it's time to apply the medicine." Xia Chu shook the bottle in his hand and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
The man struggled to lean up, and Xia Chu stretched out his hand to help him.
"What's your name? I can't call you master from now on." Xia Chu asked while applying medicine to him.
The man shook his head.
"You don't have a name or you don't want to say it?"
The man's eyes darkened for a moment, and when he raised his head again, he pointed at Xia Chu and then at himself.
"Do you want me to get it for you?" Xia Chu guessed what he meant.
The man nodded.
Xia Chu thought for a while.
"Raven. From now on, I will call you Raven."
The man tilted his head, slightly confused.
"The raven is a black bird that eats corpses and ferries people." Xia Chu stopped applying the medicine, looked at him and said, "You are the charred crow in the sea of fire, and I came to fertilize you." people."
The man nodded and wrote the word 'Raven' on the edge of the bed with his finger.
"Yes, Raven."
Xia Chu smiled, picked up the jade muscle ointment and continued to apply the medicine.
After taking the medicine, Xia Chu helped him lie down again. Carrying the fish in the bucket in the house, he was going to the kitchen to make soup.
In the past few days at the beginning of summer, I discovered a good way to practice flying needles.
Every night he went to the river in the back mountain and pricked fish with silver needles.
Um. It is very convenient to catch fish and kill two birds with one stone.
At first, it was quite troublesome due to the problem of vision and the depth of fish diving.
Later, slowly, he was able to hit the target with every shot. Now, he can even use a little more force to find the right acupuncture points. Occasionally, you can also stun a few accurately.
He picked up the dead fish and grilled them on the spot. You can also bring the fainted fish back and put it in a bucket to feed the ravens the next day.
Raven is now suffering from burns, and some meals can be of great help in healing his wounds. In the morning, milk and eggs are prepared for him. At noon, he usually has beef and braised fish, and in the evening, he makes fish soup.
As soon as Xia Chu left the tent carrying a wooden bucket, he bumped into Shan Xiangpeng, Yan Jianghong and Deng Qizhong.
The water in the barrel splashed out, and the two black fish inside were frightened and swam back and forth.
"Doctor Yi, are you okay?" Shan Xiangpeng asked quickly.
Xia Chu patted the water stains on his robe, raised his eyes and asked, "Are you sick?"
"No, no." The three of them waved their hands.
"Are you sick? Come to the doctor?"
"No, we just brought Deng Qizhong to thank you in person." Shan Xiangpeng said and pushed Deng Qizhong.
"Um, Doctor Yi. Thank you for saving my life." Deng Qizhong bowed deeply.
Xia Chu waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's your responsibility, don't worry."
"It's time to hang Qizhong without a doctor. Qizhong should be buried now." Yan Jianghong said from the side.
When the three of them heard this, their mouths twitched.
As soon as Xia Chu heard him speak, he guessed that he was a typical big boss in the army. On the other hand, Shan Xiangpeng and Deng Qizhong are not like the ruffians in the army, and they are slightly bookish.
Yan Jianghong looked at the three people with strange expressions, and looked confused, not knowing what he said wrong.
Shan Xiangpeng smiled awkwardly, changed the topic and asked, "What are you going to do, Doctor Yi?"
"Go to the kitchen to make soup."
Yan Jianghong had already lifted the barrel with one hand.
"Let me help Doctor Yi get it." After saying that, he left without giving Xia Chu a chance to refuse...
Xia Chu's hand was still in the same position as when Yan Jianghong snatched the barrel. He looked at Yan Jianghong's back, then at Shan Xiangpeng and Deng Qizhong who looked a little apologetic. He sighed and followed up.
When the three of them arrived in the kitchen, Yan Jianghong was competing with a fish...
Xia Chu pinched his eyebrows, took the knife in his hand, and said, "I'll do it."
Xia Chu put the fish on the chopping board, slapped it evenly a few times with a knife, and then used a spoon to scrape the scales from the tail to the head. After a while, all the scales were easily scraped off.
After Xia Chu finished shaving, he looked up and saw that the three of them hadn't left yet. They were all staring at him dumbfounded and couldn't help but ask: "Do you have anything else?"
"We want to help." Shan Xiangpeng said.
Xia Chu recalled the way Yanjiang Hong shaved the fish scales just now, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
"No need..."
"It's better to use it?" Deng Qizhong couldn't help but said something.
Xia Chu sighed and asked, "Have you eaten?"
All three people shook their heads.
Xia Chu felt that it was unnecessary to ask this question. He propped up his forehead with the back of his hand and said, "You go and wait outside."
Seeing that Xia Chu managed to keep them away, the three people retreated outside the door.
Xia Chu skillfully scraped off the scales and gills of both fish, chopped off the fish heads, threw them away from the belly, took out all the internal organs and rinsed them several times. Then take one to braise and the other to make soup.
The three of them looked at Xia Chu's skillful skills outside the house, and felt that even if Doctor Yi shaved off the scales of a fish, it would look like a living picture scroll, so beautiful.
After an hour, the fragrant and delicious smell spread and lingered on the tip of the nose, making people salivate. The foremen in the kitchen couldn't help but come over to ask Xia Chu how he made it. The three people outside were waiting anxiously and did not dare to rush over.
Xia Chu put the braised fish and fish soup in separate bowls. Not knowing how much the three of them would eat, he called Shan Xiangpeng in to serve the food. After it was put into the food box, Yan Jianghong rushed to carry it, and Xia Chu felt relaxed. At first glance, Yan Jianghong was the one doing physical labor among the three of them.
"What does Yan Jianghong do in the army?" Xia Chu asked Shan Xiangpeng as he walked.
"Jiang Hong is the instructor in charge of riding and archery. Don't look at him like that. He is a good bow and archer." Shan Xiangpeng said with a smile.
"Where is Deng Qizhong?" Xia Chu looked at Deng Qizhong.
"He is good at arranging troops, so he often patrols the mountains to check formations. Now, he serves as a captain in the army." After Shan Xiangpeng finished speaking, Deng Qizhong smiled humbly at Xia Chu.
"What about you?" Xia Chu looked at Shan Xiangpeng again.
"Xiang Peng is good at planning. Now, he is General Xiao Zhao's staff officer." Deng Qizhong replied.
Tsk tsk. You really don’t know if you don’t ask, but if you ask, you will all be talented.
While talking, they arrived at the tent they were staying in. Xia Chu went in first, and the three of them followed.
Xia Chu laid out the food, filled a bowl of fish soup with some fish maw. Then he left them to their own devices, stood up, and carried it to the raven.
Although he has gotten better in the past two days, he still has no energy and needs to be fed. Xia Chu helped him up and fed him with a spoon.
Yan Jianghong stood up and walked over and asked, "Do you want to help, Doctor Yi?"
Xia Chu saw a cold light flash in the raven's eyes, and quickly stopped Yan Jianghong with a stern look, shouting: "Don't come over."
Yan Jianghong was startled and froze on the spot.
"There is a burn patient inside. It's not easy to see anyone. Just don't come in." Xia Chu saw him stop and his tone softened.
"Sorry for being abrupt." Shan Xiangpeng glared at Yan Jianghong after speaking.
Yan Jianghong retreated to the table aggrievedly.
After Xia Chu finished feeding the fish soup, he asked him again: "I've cooked braised fish. Do you want some?"
Raven nodded.
Xia Chu came out again and served some rice, poured some soup on it, took some fish maw back, fed him again, helped him lie down and then came out.
"Didn't I let you eat first?" Xia Chu asked.
"I should still wait for you to come together." Shan Xiangpeng said.
"I don't have so many rules, and I don't have to be so polite in the future."
"In the future? Then we can come here more often." Yan Jianghong accurately grasped the key point.
The corners of Xia Chu's mouth twitched and she said with a smile: "Eat quickly..."
Although it is a little cold, it is fresh, tender, juicy and delicious. The three of them were amazed after taking a bite. It was rare for soldiers to eat these, especially such delicious fish.
The three of them devoured their food. They were really greedy for a long time and couldn't hold it back...
After they were done, they realized that half of Xia Chu's bowl of rice had not been finished yet.
All three people's faces turned red.
"It's really delicious." Shan Xiangpeng said with a red face.
"It doesn't matter, I don't have to be restrained." Xia Chu really didn't care. Anyway, he was going to the river to eat grilled fish at night.
The three nodded sheepishly.
"Then... you can collect the dishes and chopsticks and take them to the kitchen. It's time for me to give medicine to the patients inside."
The three of them hurriedly got up and cleaned up.
"It's really disturbing Doctor Yi."
"It doesn't matter, I won't give it away."
The three of them carried the food boxes out of the tent. Yan Jianghong muttered as they walked: "The patient inside is so happy. He can eat such delicious meals every day! You said that if you send me in after being disabled, don't you? I can eat it every day..."
A sneer came from the wind.
"I think you are mentally retarded, so there is no need to beat your legs anymore..."
