After Tang Zibo said this, he died. Although Xue Mu had no time to study the whole story, he subconsciously believed that Tang Zibo was telling the truth.
He asked Pengpeng to escort the King of Lingnan down the mountain with his troops, and met up with Li Mo who came, and then he turned around and went to the cave. On the road, he met Aies who was coming towards him, so he pretended not to see him. He was only worried about Liu Qinghuan's body now, he didn't dare to look at her much just now, and he didn't know if she was hurt anywhere.
Thinking of this, Xue Mu couldn't help speeding up her pace again, this girl was so stubborn, she was so sick that she even cried out for pain when she walked, and she insisted on meddling with her.
Aies was holding one of Lingnan King's subordinates, and passed by Xue Mu. Seeing that the other party didn't intend to talk to him at all, he smiled embarrassingly, and followed Peng Peng down the mountain. General Xue will go find that treasure by himself.
When Xue Mu returned to the cave, Gao Cheng was outside tinkering with medicinal materials. There are a lot of medicinal herbs that can be collected on this Xiwei Mountain, although they are not precious medicinal materials, they are still easy to stop bleeding and relieve pain. Seeing Xue Mu coming back, he handed the freshly crushed herbs to him: "It's just in time for the general to come back, let's replace these herbs with Miss Liu."
Xue Mu thanked him, and took the herbs into the cave. Liu Qinghuan was still nestling on that little thatched bunk, Xue Mu frowned slightly when he saw it. The conditions on the mountain were simple, and he wished he could take Liu Qinghuan back to the Hou's mansion immediately, and then summon all the most famous doctors in Chang'an.
Sighing softly, Xue Mu walked to Liu Qinghuan and sat down, calling softly, "Qingqing."
Liu Qinghuan's thick eyelashes trembled when she heard the words, and she slowly opened her eyes: "Amu..."
The soft and waxy sound of "Amu" made Xue Mu's heart soften. He kissed her on the cheek, and his voice was softer than before: "I'm going to help you change your medicine now."
"Okay..." Liu Qinghuan obediently let Xue Mu unbutton her clothes without resisting. The herb stinged a little when it first touched the wound, and she hissed subconsciously. Xue Mu's hands stopped, and he raised his eyes to look at her: "It hurts?"
"... It doesn't hurt." Liu Qinghuan denied it stubbornly, but the facial features wrinkled together by the pain completely betrayed her heart. Seeing her distressed, Xue Mu bowed his head and kissed the corner of her mouth: "Good boy, just bear with it." The wound on her waist was not deep at all, but after soaking in the river for so long before, it was torn apart again. After a few times, there are some signs of inflammation. Xue Mu was worried that it would get worse. Fortunately, Gao Cheng found some herbal medicine on the mountain, and after applying it a few times, it really started to get better. It's just that today there was such a fuss, and there was some bloodshed again.
"Liu Qinghuan, this is the last time. No matter how much you beg me in the future, I won't let you be so willful." Xue Mu's voice was very light, but the threat was expressed vividly.
Liu Qinghuan pursed her lips, trying to divert Xue Mu's attention with state affairs: "Did the King of Lingnan catch it?"
"Naturally, Pengpeng has already escorted people down the mountain." Xue Mu didn't seem to want to discuss this topic very much, so he brought it up with a simple sentence.
Liu Qinghuan let out an oh, and felt relieved when someone caught her. Her eyes glanced at the wound on her waist inadvertently, and she couldn't help frowning at that ferocious look: "Ah Mu, will there be a scar?"
Xue Mu raised his head and gave her a playful look: "So you also know to worry about this problem?"
Liu Qinghuan pouted, turned her head away, Xue Mu chuckled lightly and said, "Don't worry, even if there is a scar, only I can see it."
Liu Qinghuan's ears turned red inexplicably, Xue Mu smiled and helped her bandage the wound.
Except for Liu Qinghuan screaming in pain at the beginning, she has been very quiet since then. She still turned her head to look at the wall of the cave, but the hand at her side slowly clenched into a fist. She still has a question, she wanted to ask Xue Mu ever since he entered the cave, but she didn't dare. She didn't want to see Xue Mu sad anymore.
"Aren't you going to ask me about the antidote?" Xue Mu straightened her clothes and asked in a nonchalant manner. Liu Qinghuan was slightly taken aback, but still didn't dare to turn her head to look at him.
Xue Mu gently pulled her into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "Qingqing, you are not poisoned."
Liu Qinghuan was taken aback for a moment, then finally turned around and looked at Xue Mu blankly. Xue Mu took her cool hand into his own, pondered for a while and said, "Tang Zibo didn't poison you."
"how come… ?"
Xue Mu paused, and said, "Serial tricks."
Liu Qinghuan's eyes flickered, first she pretended to poison her, and then she deliberately found out. She is not the only one who can use this trick.
She looked at Xue Mu, still a little puzzled: "Why did he do this?"
Xue Mu remained silent.
Liu Qinghuan thought for a while, then said in a low voice, "I won't be grateful to him."
Xue Mu was taken aback for a moment, and hugged Liu Qinghuan tighter: "But I am very grateful to him."
Liu Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat, and she was silent for a while before asking: "If I hadn't been poisoned, why would I still be coughing up blood?" Could it be that I really had tuberculosis
Xue Mu also frowned lightly: "I'll find out when I get back to Chang'an and see the doctor."
"It's not a new terminal illness, is it?" Liu Qinghuan looked very worried.
Xue Mu glared at her: "Stop talking nonsense."
Liu Qing laughed a few times, pulled the wound again, and her face collapsed again. Xue Mu looked amused and helpless: "Can you stop for a while?"
Liu Qinghuan nestled quietly in his arms and stopped talking. Perhaps because she let go of the big rock in her heart, Liu Qinghuan soon felt a little drowsy. Seeing her nodding her head in a daze, Xue Mu carefully helped her to lie down on the thatched bed: "Qingqing, if you're sleepy, I'll go to sleep first and call you when I have dinner."
"good."
"Tomorrow morning, Gao Cheng and I will go to find his master, and then we will return to Chang'an." Xue Mu looked at the thatched quilt in his hand with some distaste, and it still lightly lay on Liu Qinghuan's body.
Liu Qinghuan blinked and looked at him, worried: "Gao Cheng's master seems to be very powerful, you should be careful."
"Yeah." Xue Mu nodded with a smile and walked out of the cave after seeing her breathing calmed down. There is nothing to eat on the mountain, except mushrooms and wild fruits, which are wild game. Now that Liu Qinghuan's physical condition is unknown, Xue Mu didn't dare to let her eat some messy food. He only let her eat fruit and mushroom soup the day before, but the girl boss reluctantly said that he abused patients.
Xue Mu also felt that eating these would not restore her body, but she was injured and couldn't eat those roasted game, so she wondered if she could find a river to catch fish and make some fish soup for her to drink.
After asking Gao Cheng, there is really a small river where you can fish. Gao Cheng asked him to guard the entrance of the cave, and took up the heavy responsibility of fishing himself. Because he was familiar with the West Wei Mountain, he came back within a short while, carrying a few fresh fish in his hand and a large handful of mushrooms in his pocket.
"Use these mushrooms to make fish soup, the taste will be more fresh, these grasses are to remove the fishy smell." Gao Cheng walked to Xue Mu's side and put all the things in his pockets. Xue Mu nodded in satisfaction, he can't say that he abused patients today, can he
"By the way, I also found this." Gao Cheng picked out an unremarkable mushroom from the pile of mushrooms and handed it to Xue Mu.
Xue Mu didn't understand, so he asked, "This is?"
"King Mushroom, eating it is good for your health." Gao Cheng replied casually, and began to mess with the fish.
Xue Mu took the Mushroom King in his hand and studied it for a while, but he didn't expect the dignified Mushroom King to look so plain. But Gao Cheng has lived in this mountain for so many years, so he should not admit his mistake, so he thanked him and accepted it. Thinking about boiling the Mushroom King in this mountain, I feel sorry for it, so I plan to bring it back to the Hou Mansion tomorrow for the cook to cook.
When the dinner was almost ready, Gao Cheng suddenly felt a large group of people approaching from here, and immediately became alert. Xue Mu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay, it's my subordinate."
Li Mo was originally here to escort the King of Lingnan back to Chang'an, but he prefers the task of finding treasures. After the reconciliation with Pengpeng at the foot of the mountain, he asked Nuoyan and Pengpeng to go back to Chang'an together, and he brought a team of people up the mountain to find Xue Mu.
Seeing Xue Mu cooking fish soup sitting in front of a small fire, Li Mo was extremely curious: "I must taste the fish soup made by General Xue himself."
Xue Mu slapped his hand away, and said bluntly, "This is for Qingqing."
Li Mo withdrew his hand embarrassingly, and warned earnestly: "Master Hou, it's not okay to spoil your wife like this."
Xue Mu glanced at him and said with a smile: "If you are capable, marry one and go back and spoil me?"
Li Mo showed a shriveled smile, and said: "Marry a daughter-in-law and go back and take care of yourself all day long? Let me tell you, if you need it, go to Pingkangfang to find those little ladies. Wouldn't it be happier."
Xue Mu smiled slightly and continued to watch the heat of the fish soup: "Well, people who can't find a wife comfort themselves like this."
Li Mo: "..."
The soldiers behind couldn't hold back their muffled laughter, and Li Mo turned his head viciously: "Laugh! Believe it or not, you won't be able to cry later!"
The soldiers suddenly stood up straight and said in unison: "General Li, we didn't laugh!" It was obviously General Xue who was laughing, you have the ability to take care of him!
Li Mo cursed a few more words, then moved his eyes to the grilled fish and pheasant next to him: "Yes, you can't drink fish soup, you can always eat this."
Xue Mudao: "These belong to Brother Gao Cheng and I, you have to eat them yourself to fight."
Only then did Li Mo look at the young man who had been standing beside him, probably the "Brother Gao Cheng" that Xue Mu was talking about.
"Who is this… "
"The leader of the Seven Stars Sect." Gao Cheng replied sternly.
This title shocked Li Mo. He never thought that he would be the leader of a sect at such a young age. He is really young and promising. Xue Mu's younger brothers are getting more and more money, and now they even accept a leader. Thinking about myself...as if I am also his younger brother.
This discovery made Li Mo a little sad. He sniffed and said to the soldiers behind him: "Brothers, go hunting in the mountains!"
"Yes!" The soldiers responded in unison.
So the animals on Xiwei Mountain ushered in the biggest catastrophe since their birth.
Gao Cheng looked at their backs going away, and frowned slightly. With so many people here, will they hurt Master tomorrow
Seeming to see through his thoughts, Xue Mu said, "Don't worry, they are just here to work as coolies."
Gao Cheng: "..."
Fortunately, that General Li walked fast.
