In a wooden house deep in the forest of Nuer County, Lu Sheng leaned against the wall, biting the strip of cloth torn from his clothes, and bandaging the wound on his shoulder with one hand.
The originally handsome man with a high nose and eyes now looked a little embarrassed.
The thick, shiny black hair was now scrawled into a ball; the remaining pieces of hair were messy and stuck to the dusty cheeks.
"hiss!!!"
The simply treated herbs were applied tightly to the wound, and the cold sweat on Lu Sheng's forehead fell like beads, and his handsome face looked a little ferocious.
After a long while, he opened his eyes in a daze, and after using his strength for a long time, he managed to stand up by holding on to the wall.
It didn't matter at this stop. The exquisitely made red velvet shirt seemed to be unable to withstand the damage. It was broken into several pieces and drooped down. It seemed that the already convex and concave armor was not so miserable.
"Chirp! Chirp!" The little falcon flew in from the window and landed on his outstretched palm.
Lu Sheng licked his dry lips and rubbed his fluffy forehead with his chin: "Have you finished sending the letter? Thank you for your hard work!"
"Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!" Fluffy yelled at him twice, barely opening her eyes, and then fell asleep in his palm.
Lu Sheng carefully put it into the helmet, looking at the sparse down of the wings, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
If he usually had food and medicine suitable for the little falcon, but now he was in an area adjacent to the enemy camp, and supplies were in short supply, so he could only suffer.
"Oh! You're awake again!" Just as Lu Sheng sighed, a dashing girl pushed open the door and walked in. She put down the bow and arrows and prey on her shoulders, looked at Lu Sheng carefully for a moment, and nodded, "Okay. I’ll even change my dressing.”
"Miss Liang." Lu Sheng greeted her weakly, "Thank you for taking me in these days. I am deeply grateful. I will tie a grass ring in the next life to repay your kindness."
"Hey! Listening to your words, do you want to say goodbye now, or do you think you can't live anymore?"
Miss Liang took out a wooden bowl from the cupboard and joked while grinding the herbs inside with a pestle.
Lu Sheng didn't feel offended. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I still have important things to do. I was in a daze for a few days and delayed important things. I don't dare to delay them anymore..." Reading La
"But where can you go? Several border towns connecting Taining County and Nuer County have been captured by the armies of Ajong and Nuerhan. Now this area has also become an enemy-occupied place. The gates of the city behind have already been closed. Shut up, even if you can pass through the defense lines of Ajong and Nuerhan, you still can't get over the city gate!"
Miss Liang looked at Lu Sheng's profile for a moment and said, "Your first priority is to take good care of your health so that you can plan for the future."
Lu Sheng shook his head sadly: "The border town I was guarding was occupied, and all my comrades-in-arms died on the battlefield. I can't sit still, I just hope to use my body to avenge my comrades!"
Miss Liang slammed the wooden bowl on the table and immediately pulled Lu Sheng out of his self-pity.
"It's obvious that your general guarding the city is stubborn and arrogant and refused to listen to the reminders and warnings of your scholar-general, which is why he ended up in this situation! Why should you be arrogant?"
When Lu Sheng heard this, not only did he not feel comforted, but he broke into a cold sweat: "Miss Liang, you, you, you...how do you know such detailed information?!"
Seeing his alert gaze, Miss Liang casually picked up the wooden pestle and pounded the medicine: "Who do you think I am? The border town is short of supplies. If it weren't for the Hongyuan caravan to transport it, I'm afraid it would become even more desolate."
"Miss Liang, are you the manager of Hongyuan Caravan?" The vigilance in Lu Sheng's eyes was slightly reduced, but he became more cautious in his heart.
As far as he knew, the Hongyuan Caravan had a wide range of connections, and its main focus was on doing business regardless of position.
It is precisely because of this that this caravan usually has no obstacles whether it is entering or leaving Dachu, Ajong, or Nuerhan.
It is said that at the farthest point, the Hongyuan caravan even passed through the Western Region.
The range of goods they provide is extremely wide, ranging from rare items for nobles of various countries to materials and seeds used by ordinary people. There is nothing they do not sell.
Therefore, they have an excellent reputation in Dachu, Ajong and Nuerhan.
But it was the ability of the Hongyuan Caravan that made Lu Sheng have to be wary.
