As the saying goes, good medicine is bitter to the mouth and good for the disease, and good advice is bad to the ears and good for action. Ruan Xianbei drank the bitter medicine for several days in a row, and old man Tiankui also gave her acupuncture for several days in a row. In this way, she lived a happy life. A few days later, unexpectedly, her limbs were unsealed and she could sit up again.
My whole body also regained consciousness.
Therefore, after being happy, she discovered a piece of bad news. After all, she had to face something that she had been subconsciously avoiding during the period when she was a semi-vegetative state.
That's right, she slept on top of the toilet with her butt naked.
So every day Shen Xuan... She covered her face and didn't dare to think about it at all.
The Flower of the High Mountain is dirty, stained by her.
Woohoo! ! !
Where is her face? In a pit? No wonder she was the only one sleeping here, it was just a toilet!
Ruan Xianbei wanted to take a bath immediately! Need a bath very urgently!
Seeing that she could move, old man Tiankui pointed a way to her: "There is an underground lake over there, go and wash it yourself."
She wants a hot bath!
So Ruan Xianbei could only turn to Shen Xuan for help. Anyway, there were too many lice and it didn't itch, so he didn't care about it once or twice.
"Shen Xuan? Senior Brother Shen? Senior Brother?" She called him with a flattering smile and begged him bitterly: "Help me boil some hot water. I really want to take a bath."
"Okay." Shen Xuan agreed readily.
Also, she is a weak woman, and Shen Xuan has no reason to reject her.
But he also asked her, "Do you want it warmer or hotter?"
"Hot it up, I'll wash it longer."
Ruan Xianbei felt that Shen Xuan's attitude became a little strange after learning that his father had saved him.
The way he looks at himself is very...how should I put it? It's like breaking through some kind of barrier, a little too enthusiastic?
Is it like what is said in the storybook, if two people have been locked up together for a long time, they will feel happy even if they look at a pig?
Bah bah bah! She is not a pig! She is still a little confident in her beauty!
...
When Shen Xuan came back with a bucket of hot water, Ruan Xianbei looked at himself reflected in the water and took a breath.
The woman in the water had strands of hair so oily that she could cook vegetables, her face was as pale as a ghost, her face had lost weight because she couldn't eat normally for a long time, and her eyes were so big that it was scary. In the past, people and animals could be called harmless, charming and cute, but now?
Ha, the word beauty has nothing to do with her. If anyone saw her at night, they would think she was a female ghost seeking her life.
"There is also a basin of cold water and a basin of hot water here. You can add them yourself."
Shen Xuan put down the water and left. The figure disappeared but the voice still came in: "Throw your clothes here, wash them and dry them before bringing them to you." t.
Ruan Xianbei: I am shocked. Shen Xuan must have true love for me...otherwise it is hard to say why he can still take good care of me.
Could it be that he has a fetish for ugliness? ! He was indifferent to so many beautiful women's secret promises, or was it because he liked men in the first place?
So she refused at first: "Huh? Isn't this bad?"
"There are no clean clothes here, so I have to borrow Senior Tiankui's."
Then don’t do it! Since Shen Xuan is willing, she doesn't have to be so hesitant, so it's better to be respectful than obey.
"Okay." Ruan Xianbei took off his clothes, casually wrapped an object and threw it out of the hole.
Ruan Xianbei submerged himself in the water, and all the wounds on his body were healed, but the bruises and bruises left by the impact were still terrible.
"A Ruan? Are you okay?" Shen Xuan asked again after hearing that there was no sound for a long time.
Ruan Xianbei was letting herself go, brainstorming and feeling sorry for herself. Suddenly she heard Shen Xuan's voice and she quickly replied: "It's okay, it's okay. I see how ugly I look now. I'll be stunned."
"Well, call me if you need anything."
She sighed, filled with emotions, does this count as saving a life?
Suddenly and belatedly,
He just called me Ah Ruan! Sober! Not drinking!
Is he sick?
There was some distance between the two of them. Shen Xuan seemed to get up to wash the clothes and bring them back to warm the fire. After Ruan Xianbei recovered, she felt that her auditory perception seemed to have improved a step further, and even the bottleneck of her cultivation level had loosened. She seemed to be about to enter Tianxuan. It's the second level.
"Shen Xuan, will I die?" She asked dully, this question has been lingering in her heart.
"Don't be afraid, the disaster will last for thousands of years."
Ruan Xianbei: ...Thank you very much.
Ruan Xianbei, who had almost shed a layer of skin, looked at the turbid water and couldn't take a second look. He poured the water into the pit where he had been lying and buried it in the process. It was much more comfortable to wear the baked clothes cleanly. She was too embarrassed to ask Shen Xuan for help, so she sorted out the things in the pit and walked out.
"Girls are trouble." The two of them came to the cave where old man Tiankui usually lived. This space was larger. In addition to the various pots, there were also bowls, pans, bamboo beds, bamboo chairs and other daily necessities. , it seems that old man Tiankui usually lives here.
Ruan Xianbei was attracted by those big and small pots at first sight.
The pot was boiling with decoctions of different colors that all looked very unpleasant. Old Tiankui stood in front of one pot and pointed at another large pot and said to her: "That pot is yours."
Old Tiankui turned his head and hunched his back, the light and the green concoction in the pot shone on his face, and his yellow teeth were exposed when talking to Ruan Xianbei.
Ruan Xianbei inevitably thought of the scene in fairy tale books about witches eating children.
"Senior, what is this?" She took a look at the pot of gray-brown liquid and stepped back and asked.
"Have you never seen a medicated bath?" Old Man Tiankui looked over with a questionable look on his face.
Ruan Xianbei laughed twice: "Senior, when can we go out?"
"After taking medicinal bath for seven days."
Unexpectedly, happiness came so suddenly. This pot became like a passport in Ruan Xianbei's eyes. She really couldn't wait to go out to eat and drink!
"Senior, where does the food here come from?"
Old Man Tiankui focused on cultivating a relationship with the pot in front of him. Ruan Xianbei asked questions one after another, interrupting his thoughts again and again. He threw down the stirring stick and called Shen Xuan irritably: "Oh, where are you counting? Come on, come on, stir it until it changes color."
Shen Xuan took the stirring stick and asked, "Senior, what color do you want it to turn into?"
Old man Tiankui curled his lips and rolled his eyes and said, "How do I know what color it will be? You can't see it yourself?"
"Senior, I'm a little hungry." Ruan Xianbei snickered when she saw Shen Xuan's helpless look, and then she clutched her stomach and shouted that she was hungry. With her now thin and disfigured face, she really looked like she hadn't had enough to eat in her whole life. .
"Damn girl, just eat, eat, eat!" Old Tiankui had a bad temper, but despite the scolding, he went out to find food for her.
"Senior! I want to eat meat! I also want to drink soup!"
After a while he came back carrying a chicken and two fish, as well as some wild fruits and vegetables.
Ruan Xianbei stepped forward and said with admiration: "Senior, you are so awesome! Where do all these things come from?"
Old man Tiankui threw the dead chickens and fish on the ground and said angrily: "Like you, you fell from the top to die."
"Thank you for taking care of me, senior. Can you please let me cook a meal to repay you today?" Ruan Xianbei ignored his excuses. It would not cause any harm anyway, and he still asked others to send them out.
Old man Tiankui's face looked better now. During this meal, Ruan Xianbei ordered him to fetch water, boil water, and pluck chickens.
After working for a while, Ruan Xianbei was out of breath. She wiped the sweat from her head and looked at the chicken nuggets burning in the pot. She felt that she should strengthen her rehabilitation and exercise every day starting from tomorrow!
The most indispensable thing here is pots and fires. The underground air is also circulated, and there is occasional wind, but there are no entrances and exits. It is really strange.
Two fish and one are used to cook tofu and fish soup, just in time to add wild vegetables
Put it in for freshness. The other one is grilled and eaten, the whole chicken is cut into half to make braised chicken nuggets, and the other half is saved for the next meal.
There is no rice but millet, so I can only cook some millet porridge.
Old man Tiankui squatted next to her to see what tricks she could do. He watched her saliva sip and then ran outside.
I thought he would just eat whatever he could and just mess around with it at every meal. He would just eat some dry food and eat some wild vegetables. How could he be so particular?
"Is it ready?" Old man Tiankui kept urging him with a bowl beside him. The grilled fish looks so delicious!
"Who just said that I'm a damn girl, I just know how to eat when I eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat."
"A girl with a heart as small as a needle? In this way, you cook for me every day, and I will add some good things to your medicinal bath! How about helping you break through to the third level of Tianxuan Realm?"
When Ruan Xianbei heard it, it seemed pretty good! This deal can be done, but he still said with a reluctant look on his face: "Even without your help, I will break through to the third level sooner or later."
Old Man Tiankui was actually a little anxious now: "Without my help, you would be dead by the time you break through the third level!"
After he said this, a huge thunder suddenly sounded, which rumbled to the ground and shook it.
Old Tiankui's expression changed, he looked up with a complicated look, and hummed in a low voice: "I won't say anymore, do you want love?"
Ruan Xianbei and Shen Xuan looked at each other. She smiled flatteringly at Tiankui and said, "Senior, I was joking just now. Even if you don't help me, I am willing to cook for you. Without you, we would have starved to death." .”
Ruan Xianbei coaxed old man Tiankui for a while, and the meal was ready. Ruan Xianbei gave the whole grilled fish to old man Tiankui, and then he calmed down.
In the remaining days, Shen Xuan helped Old Tiankui make medicine and do some unknown experiments. Ruan Xianbei not only took medicinal baths and took medicine every day, but also insisted on running, squatting and boxing, recalling the exercises of Sister Pa that he learned from videos. Muscle recovery.
Although Old Man Tiankui said that her movements looked like a crazy dance of demons, a possessed chimpanzee, etc., and that she should never learn square dancing from her, she clearly saw him following her secretly while she was exercising. Jumping!
Twenty taels of silver was a bit too small, but in modern times it was still around eight thousand to ten thousand yuan.
At present, an ordinary soldier in the Yu Dynasty can only earn one tael of silver per month at most, and a centurion can earn three taels of silver per month.
Maybe he will accept it.
In addition, Qin Hu is also planning to draw a big pie for Li Xiaokun. After all, Qin Hu used to have money.
Now it depends on whether he and Qin An can survive the night.
"Little Marquis, I may not be able to survive. I'm so hungry, my hands and feet are frozen with cold." Qin An said in a daze.
"Xiao Anzi, Xiao Anzi, hold on, hold on, you can't stay still, get up and run, that's the only way you can survive."
In fact, Qin Hu himself is in trouble. Although he was a special soldier in his previous life, this body is not what he used to be. All he has now is a perseverance.
"Wait!"
Qin Hu's eyes were like cold stars, and he suddenly shouted in a low voice. A reflection and a rustling sound that appeared just ten meters away from the camp aroused his alertness.
With the professional sense of smell of a special scout, he felt that it was the enemy.
But should we notify Li Xiaokun?
Qin Hu hesitated a little. What if he saw it wrong? You know, his current physical condition is completely different from before.
If a false alarm causes night terrors or camp roars, and someone gets a handle on it, they will be killed without mercy.
"Xiao Anzi, hand me the bow and arrow."
Qin Hu crawled under the carriage and whispered.
But Qin An's next words scared him so much that he almost jumped up.
"Bow and arrow, what are bow and arrow?"
What, there are no bows and arrows in this era?
Qin Hu looked around and found a wooden stick with a sharpened top placed under the wheel. It was two meters long. It was thick at the handle and became thinner as it went up.
The more I look at it, the more it looks like a weapon.
Wooden gun, this is the iconic building of the cannon fodder.
"Come closer, come closer..." After a few breaths, Qin Hu was sure that he was right.
The other party may be the enemy's scouts, called scouts in this era. They are trying to enter the camp and conduct reconnaissance.
Of course, if conditions permit, you can also poison, set fire to, or perform a beheading operation.
"one two three……"
He and Qin An lay motionless on the ground until then, he suddenly jumped up and threw the wooden spear as a javelin.
"puff!"
It was impossible for the scout to wear armor because he had difficulty moving, so the shot pierced his chest directly.
Following Qin Hu, he picked up the wooden gun belonging to Qin An, jumped out of the carriage, and chased in the opposite direction desperately.
For the reliability of intelligence, the scouts are required to monitor each other and are not allowed to act alone, so there are at least two.
After a few moments, Qin Hu threw another black shadow to the ground.
Then he strangled his neck with a wooden gun. There was a crisp sound and the man's head hung down.
"Hoo, hoo!" Qin Hu was sweating profusely and almost collapsed. He lay on the ground gasping for air. His body was really too weak.
Just to break the enemy's neck, before he could just use his hands, but just now he had to rely on the power of a wooden gun.
"Qin An, come here and help me search you."
Qin Hu is familiar with the rules of the battlefield. He must collect all the trophies from these two guys as quickly as possible.
"Two daggers, two horizontal knives, a level, seven or eight taels of broken silver, two grain bags, flags, kettles, two sets of cotton-padded clothes, two pot helmets, bacon..."
"Qin An, brother, hurry up, hurry up, eat something quickly, you are saved..."
Qin Hu tremblingly grabbed a handful of fried beans from the grain bag and stuffed it into Qin An's mouth, then filled him with water and put on the captured cotton-padded clothes.
.
Before dawn, Qin Hu cut off the scout's head before the sentry on duty arrived, carried it into Shi Chang's camp, and reported what happened yesterday.
This was done to prevent others from taking credit, and he knew what kind of environment he was in now.
"Thirty taels of silver for one head, you are rich."
The chief's name was Gundam. He was a tall, muscular man with a beard.
At first, he didn't believe it until he saw the trophies captured by Qin Hu and the two corpses.
At this moment, his eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"It's not me who gets rich, it's everyone who gets rich. This is the result of the ten of us."
