Uncle Calabash led them into a large room that was slightly wider than other houses. There were many people lying or sitting in the room, suffering from varying degrees of injuries. An old man was treating their wounds.
"You two have a rest here first, I have to go out." Uncle Calabash hurriedly rolled up the rattan mat and recruited two young men to carry the injured.
A half-year-old child brought two glasses of water over, and Xie Xu thanked them. Seeing that the room was full of injured people, and the only one who was healthy was the old man, how could he sit down and watch.
The old man couldn't believe her at first, but when he saw her expert bandaging techniques, his face turned into a smile and he wiped his red eyes, "Okay, thank you, girl."
Jie Xu saw the old man's love for the villagers and was slightly moved. However, she did not forget her own business. While chatting with him about the situation in the village, she also asked insinuatingly whether any strangers had appeared near the village recently.
She and An Qi are extraordinary disciples of the Military Academy. After completing one more assessment task, they can enter the military camp. The task they were assigned this time was to investigate the unusual movements in the Boshan area. After many twists and turns, they discovered that the strange movements came from an unknown place. The secret realm of this world.
Along the way, she fought many times with investigators from other forces, and she was mentally exhausted. She didn't want to have to fight with others in this small village.
Fortunately, the old man shook his head and said, "We live in a remote and remote area, so we haven't seen many new faces."
Jie Xu's heart relaxed, and he couldn't help pounding the medicine harder. After pounding, he put the mashed herbs aside for later use, and continued to take the hemostatic herbs and add them to the medicine jar.
She took a piece of styptic grass, but when she picked it up again, she felt it was empty. She leaned over the basket and saw that it was gone.
How is this enough?
Just when she was about to ask the old man if he still had it, her vision dimmed and a basket full of herbs was placed in front of her.
At that time, she was sitting on the small bench at the door, looking up sideways, and her eyes were dazzled by the sunlight.
The tall and thin figure stood against the light and fell into his eyes, warm and distant.
She stood there calmly, wearing a white robe embroidered with mountains, rivers and stars, as if she had pulled down the whole world and hid it in her eyes.
That is a completely different look and demeanor from the village tribesmen.
Jie Xu narrowed his eyes slightly and stood up, "Who is your Excellency?"
Before the man could answer, the old man came out and said, "Excuse me, sir."
"Idleness is also idleness."
Her smile was so warm, as if the whole world had become softer, without any distance.
The old man nodded gratefully, "Oh, that's so nice, and it only requires half a basket. Look at you..."
As the old man spoke, he wanted to move the basket to Jie Xu's right hand so that she could take it easily, but unexpectedly he raised it with one hand and failed to move it.
"I'm getting old." He smiled, holding the sides of the basket with both hands and lifting it up hard.
Jie Xu couldn't bear to see the old man gritting his teeth and said hurriedly, "I'll do it, you're busy inside."
The old man walked down the steps and secretly thought something was wrong. How could a basket of herbs be so heavy. In a blink of an eye, Jie Xu frowned, but the basket didn't move at all.
Jie Xu is considering whether to use a light object technique.
An Qi came out over there and said, "Hey, come to me to carry something. I'm a strong man."
This is true. An Qi's highest record is to lift a three-thousand-jin heavy cauldron without any support.
So Jie Xu didn't stop him and moved away, wondering what was going on with this basket?
She subconsciously looked at the person who brought the basket, but she saw the person looking behind her in confusion.
Jie Xu thought he was dazzled, but when he looked over again, he saw the man standing there calmly and smiling to himself.
That smile seems to melt people and indulge them in the warm sun, and their consciousness disappears silently!
Jie Xu's heart suddenly became tense. She was an orthodox student of the Military Academy. She had practiced the Sky Light Concept, which can improve her perception, and she was most sensitive to subtle changes in the outside world.
Under that smile, she seemed to see the dark universe, and her consciousness seemed to dissolve into nothingness. When she came to her senses, a cold sweat broke out on her back, and she refused to look at this person for a second time.
Is this person a hermit or from another force?
At this time, An Qi looked surprised and had a competitive smile.
"It's so heavy."
He lowered his stance, stretched his arms, and gritted his teeth to show the meridians on his neck, "Ha!"
An Qi held the waist of the basket above his head like a weight-lifting cauldron, standing evenly and steadily, as if he was upright.
It's a pity that it is not a gorgeous tripod, but a half-broken rattan basket with a lot of herbs sticking out of it. No one can say anything good about it.
But what was obviously more surprising was that the rattan basket moved, and several herbs fell down and landed on An Qi's feet.
He looked down at the grass in surprise, while the old man Xie Xu looked up at the top of the basket in horror.
The eight-foot man held a two-foot-six broken rattan basket on his head. A small head popped out of the broken rattan basket, scratching the edge of the basket and looking curiously at the people below.
The cub seemed to have discovered something new, and giggled happily, patting the edge of the basket with its plump little hands.
"Hey~ Yeah!"
Most of the cubs are cute. They cry, laugh, or pout. They look innocent and cute no matter how they look at them, not to mention their delicate, white and tender cheeks that still retain the baby fat, and their pure eyes that are looking at the world for the first time.
Regardless of whether they are humans or monsters, they all have a protective complex towards their babies, perhaps because they are close to a blank slate, the most primitive and clean form at the beginning of life.
This is the whiteness that all living beings try to return to but can never have again.
Therefore, when those people saw a cub popping up from the cane basket, their first reaction was not to explore the cub's origin, but to hold up their hands in fear to prevent the cub that was half out of the basket from falling.
An Qi stumbled suddenly, steadied himself, carefully placed the basket on the ground, and patted his chest. He was frightened to death. The rattan basket dropped from more than a thousand kilograms to normal weight without any preparation, and almost slipped his waist. .
A group of people looked nervous. There were cubs in the basket. What would they do if it fell?
The cub clapped his hands happily, "Yeah!"
Yi Changsheng held her forehead. The guy's noisy babbling was always in her mind, so she blocked out the sound. She didn't even notice that she had sneaked into the basket. No wonder Laojue was missing something.
She lifted the cub by its collar and raised it to her eyes, "Are you naughty again?"
"Alas!"
"What are you hiding for?"
"Ugh!"
"I'm talking to you."
"Eeeeeeeeeeeee!"
Jie Xu was speechless looking at the "confrontation" between the big one and the small one. This person with an upright face who insists on competing with the children for their ugly appearance is really a master?
She considered it carefully and said, "It seems that he is not yet a year old, so he probably doesn't understand what you are talking about."
I used honorifics naturally, and no one felt anything was wrong.
Yi Changsheng said, "She understands."
The cub who was considered "understanding" seemed to be used to being carried like this. He kicked off his short legs and swayed on the swing. Very pleased with himself.
The cub has rare white hair, as crystal clear as snow, is dressed in white clothes, and is covered in messes.
There were green grass juice, dark brown soil stains, the fabric at the sleeves and knees was frayed, and there were a few scratches on it.
Yi Changsheng waved his hand and drew the cub's attention to him, "What should you do at this time?"
The cub opened his dark eyes. Under her stern gaze, his little mouth shrank, and he opened his short hands in aggrieved manner, "Hug~'
"..." When it comes to the critical moment of admitting your mistake, you have to hug her. What do you usually do?
Yi Changsheng remained unmoved.
The cub still opened his short hands, breathing once, twice, with tears in his eyes.
Yi Changsheng compromised and held her in his arms. The cub in her arms circled her jade neck and was so quiet and heart-warming.
"Old village chief, is there hot water?"
"Yes, sir, please come into the house."
Yi Changsheng took the cub to bathe.
