Now that he had found the herbal medicine and the situation was not urgent, Ren Ning had no intention of bothering Zhui Feng.

On the morning of the third day, he rode his horse slowly back to Yanjie Fortress.

Almost as soon as he returned to the scout camp, Mrs. Zhang followed him in.

"Injured?" She looked up and down Ren Ning's body.

"No." Ren Ning shook his head and frowned at the haggard look on the female military doctor's face, "Ms. Zhang, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Mrs. Zhang shook her head and didn't intend to say more.

"It's nothing!" The young apprentice next to him couldn't help but said: "There are also traitors from Xiliang in the fortress. Several military doctors have been poisoned."

"Fortunately, the master is a woman and usually pays more attention to the surrounding areas. She rang the bell when she saw someone approaching, so she was not plotted."

Another traitor!

Ren Ning subconsciously swung his tail towards the stable and looked at Zhui Feng who was eating horse food with relish.

The horse breeding camp is on tight guard these days, making it difficult for spies to attack the horses. Now the target has been changed, is it the turn of the sparse military doctors?

"Are the other doctors okay?" Ren Ning couldn't help but ask.

well.

The young apprentice sighed: "Three doctors died and seven were injured. Now five of them can't get out of bed."

boom!

Ren Ning punched the table hard.

"What did General Huo say?" He asked the garrison general how to deal with it.

"What else can I say? Search hard." The young apprentice obviously didn't have much hope. "It's just that the fortress is so big and there are so many people inside. They all know who they are and who they don't know. They want to uncover all the spies and catch them?"

"It's difficult!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Mrs. Zhang scolded her apprentice.

It was rare for her to say a long sentence: "Who is General Huo? He has guarded the fortress his whole life, so he naturally knows what to do. We just have to do our part."

The young apprentice shrank his neck and then stopped talking.

"Reach out!" Although Ren Ning said it was okay, Mrs. Zhang still carefully checked his pulse.

After a while, she nodded gently, "There's nothing serious, I'm just a little tired. I need to have a good rest."

"Did you find the herb?" she asked.

hey-hey!

"Found it." Ren Ning did not tempt her.

He took the bag on the table and carefully took out all the life-seeking grasses inside.

"Why is there still dirt on it?" Mrs. Zhang was confused.

Ren Ning smiled and handed her the data he had recorded.

"The fortress's medicine reserves are running low. This is where I recorded the growth environment of this herb. Let's see if we can cultivate it ourselves in the fortress."

"It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on others."

Mrs. Zhang suddenly realized.

"I've never seen this kind of herb before." She looked at the half-wilted herbs carefully. "Can it work if you chew it and apply it to the wound?"

"Yes!" Ren Ning chuckled, "It's very simple and easy to use. You don't need to process or grind it."

Madam Zhang said nothing and continued to observe the herbs in front of her.

Suddenly, she reached out and picked up several leaves, put them into her mouth, and chewed them slowly. While chewing, she recorded something on the paper.

After a while, she rummaged through the medical kit.

Under the baffled gazes of Ren and Ning, Madam Zhang found a sharp knife and stabbed her left arm without hesitation.

brush!

The white knife went in and the red knife came out, and blood seeped out.

"Master! What are you doing?" The little apprentice jumped up in fright.

Mrs. Zhang's face was trembling with pain, but she didn't notice it and directly applied the chewed herbs to the wound.

The surging blood suddenly slowed down and stopped after a few breaths. Even the color around the wound changed.

"Holy shit!" The little apprentice's eyes almost jumped out of his head, "The hemostatic effect is too overbearing! The best golden sore medicine in the fortress is no more than this."

"It is indeed a good medicine to stop bleeding and pain." Mrs. Zhang gave Ren Ning a thumbs up, "Now the wound feels cool and cool, and it doesn't hurt much anymore."

She observed it for a while and then collected the medicine box with a bang: "Young man Ren, you have made a great contribution. I will go back and study it carefully, and then I will give you military merit."

"Thank you." Ren Ning was very grateful.

He is not short of money now, but what he lacks is military merit that can enhance his status.

The credit for finding new drugs can be great or small. However, as long as Mrs. Zhang can fairly evaluate the effectiveness of the new medicine, then Ren Ning's military exploits will not be too small.

He went out to wallow like this, but it was not like Yang Bailao.

"Master, you are injured, I will do this." The young apprentice quickly came over to help.

While cleaning him up, he muttered, "Master, why did you scratch yourself? There are many injured guys in the fortress or captured Xiliang spies. It would be great to use them to test the medicine."

Mrs. Zhang did not reply as always.

She is a doctor, and you have to try a new medicine yourself to know its true effectiveness.

Seeing that her little apprentice had finished cleaning up, she nodded kindly to Ren Ning and walked out the door with the herbs and record book he sent back.

"Maybe he is a spy from Xiliang..."

The moment she went out, Mrs. Zhang's faint murmur could be heard. If Ren Ning hadn't had sharp ears, he would have thought he was hallucinating.

Although he heard it, Ren Ning didn't think much about it.

Catching spies is not his business, and it is useless to think about it.

Having spent the past few days sleeping in the open, Ren Ning threw himself on the bed and fell asleep in the blink of an eye.

When he woke up again, striker Gao Deming was standing at the door of his room with a gloomy face.

"Are you awake? You're very responsive." Gao Deming was very satisfied with his subordinate's reaction.

Almost as soon as he stood at the door, Ren Ning opened his eyes warily.

"Now that you're awake, come over and have dinner together."

"Yes! General." Ren Ning Congshan Ruliu followed.

When I looked up, it was already dusk outside.

Gao Deming came to see him, of course, not just to have dinner, but to sort out the relationship between the grassland royal court and small tribes such as Kailun and Benlu.

Ren Ning knew everything and answered.

"The group of Xiliang scouts disguised as horse thieves were destroyed?" Gao Deming asked.

"Destroyed." Ren Ning nodded and briefly explained what happened.

Gao Deming felt like he had seen a ghost and spat out a mouthful of tea. "Not only did you kill hundreds of scouts, but you also killed the leader of the Benlu clan and his family?"

"That's not the case." Ren Ning smiled innocently.

"Most of the horse thieves were killed by the Kailun tribe. I just lured them into the bait according to the methods taught by the generals. It was just a bait."

"As for the Benlu tribe, it's nothing. Their whole tribe is open and lazy. General, you can send any scout over and kill their leader."

Gao Deming was noncommittal, but he felt very comfortable in his heart.

"It's just..." Ren Ning hesitated, "The three patriarchs of Kailun were seriously injured and died in the battle with the horse thieves. And he is the only patriarch in Kailun who insists on being close to our Yunchui."

Gao Deming recorded in a hurry, he understood what Ren Ning meant.

After asking a few more questions, he spoke.

"During your absence, the Starfall Legion has been sending people here to ask questions, as if they are afraid that your boy will regret it. In this case, you can report to their legion's station tomorrow, and there is no need to go back to the scout camp in the future."

Ren Ning felt happy and quickly stood at attention, "Yes! General."

Seeing that his subordinates responded so simply and without any hesitation. Gao Deming felt a little sour for a moment.

"The relevant procedures for changing arms have been completed."

He was silent for a moment, "I'm just a little busy these days. The intelligence reward for this outing will be settled for you within half a month and then transferred to the Starfall Legion."

Half a month! ?

"Thank you, General!" Ren Ning twitched his lips and didn't waste any more words.

There were not many soldiers left alive in the entire scout battalion. In the past, military merits were calculated very quickly, usually in two to five days.
