The smell of blood was strong in the camp.
The wind blows and disperses some, making people breathe easier.
With the help of Lan Xiang and Feng Zheng, Xiang Lidu buried Shi Shi's body and erected a tombstone with only two words written on it.
Loyal soul.
Huang sat in front of the tombstone and poured wine in front of the tombstone. He didn't say a word and remained silent.
In his opinion, no amount of promises and words can buy the lives of these people. What he has to do is not words, but actions.
"Master, don't be sad. This is their fate. As a dead soldier, it is an honor to die for the family."
Yang struggled to speak, his face was pale and he had no energy at all.
"Take good care of yourself."
After replying four words, the atmosphere in the camp once again fell into dead silence. Yang was about to speak, but Feng Zheng stopped him.
Some things need to be dealt with by oneself. No matter how much others say, it will not make any difference.
In Feng Zheng's view, Huang was too young. When Huang reached his age and experienced separation between life and death, he would look away from everything and become indifferent.
The bonfire burned and there was no talking all night.
Xiang Lidu was keeping vigil, while Yang and others fell asleep. Only Huang stood in front of the tombstone and stood quietly all night.
The next day.
The sun rose and the sky and the earth returned to light. Huang turned his head and glanced at Yang and others, and said: "Old man Feng, you are driving with your injuries."
"Xiangli and I are riding horses. As for Lan Xiang and Ji Linglong, they also feel aggrieved and take care of the injured on their behalf."
"promise."
After giving the order, everyone packed up and set off. The bullock carts drove away, the horses disappeared, and only headless corpses were left on the land here.
Huang took away their heads and their swords, especially Shang Xian and Jian Ai, and he wanted the Mo family to pay the price.
After experiencing the assassination, the atmosphere among the group was a bit heavy. Bai Xue, who had just entered Qufu, got the news and immediately came with his people.
Now that Wei Yang has entered the Qin Dynasty, she has business dealings with Huang, and they are partners. A living Huang is more meaningful to her.
"Aunt Mei, is the news accurate?" Bai Xue's pretty face was solemn. At this moment, she was not only worried about Huang, but also worried about Wei Yang in the future.
Not long ago, she had received the news that the Mohist children had entered Xinzheng. Bai Xue knew Wei Yang, and she knew in her heart that once Wei Yang started, the killings he would cause in Qin would not be comparable to Shen Buhu.
When the time comes, people from the Mo family will definitely keep an eye on Wei Yang.
As long as Huang is alive, maybe he can help Wei Yang and share the pressure brought by the Mo family because of today's help.
"Master, the news has been confirmed. There are only two dead soldiers led by Master Qin. Except for Xianglidu, two women, and an old man, all of them are seriously injured."
A look of surprise appeared on Mei Gu's face, and she said word by word to Bai Xue: "Qin Guoshi was also seriously injured, but all the people sent by the Mo family died, and they were all beheaded."
Hearing this, Bai Xue became even more worried.
She had met Master Qin when he was still a teenager. Such a teenager is most likely to be carried away by anger and make the most inappropriate decisions.
After thinking about this, Bai Xue turned towards Mei Gu and said, "Where is Jing Nan?"
"Master, Jing Nan has arrived in Qufu and is on his way to join us. He also brought thirty people with him."
"Um."
Nodding, Bai Xue changed the topic: "Aunt Mei, how far are we from Qin Guoshi now?"
"Master, according to Qin Guoshi's speed, they should be here tonight." Mei Gu pointed at the map and said, "Ren."
"With our speed, we will reach Ren in the afternoon. Then we only need to wait at Ren to meet Qin Guoshi."
"From the position of Qin Guoshi, all the way to the post, even if the Mohist intelligence network is huge, it is impossible for the second batch of rangers to gather."
A trace of worry appeared in Bai Xue's eyes, and her tone became sad: "But this is based on the fact that people from the Mo family do not act privately."
"I don't know what happened between Qin Guoshi and the Mo family. They met each other so hard."
"There is no specific news at the moment." Mei Gu shook her head, her face full of worry: "We can only find out all this when we meet Qin Guoshi."
"Aunt Mei, pass the order and speed up." Bai Xue frowned, mentally calculating the speed of Jing Nan and others.
"promise."
Mei Gu stretched out her head and gave instructions: "The master of the house has given orders, speed up and go to Ren."
…
Huang and his group hurried on their way. They didn't bring many herbs with them this time. The injured people were simply bandaged and treated.
If you want to have a complete and powerful treatment, you must find a big city. Feng Zheng turned towards Huang and said, "Boy, the nearest big city to us is Ren."
"The injuries of Yang and others need to be properly treated as soon as possible, otherwise the wounds will become infected due to the weather and it will be impossible to save them."
"Um."
This truth is clear. The ancients may have had good physical fitness, but without antibiotics in this era, the consequences of inflammation would be disastrous.
He did know some knowledge about antibiotics, but due to the limitations of the times, he could not get antibiotics to use in a hurry.
Everything can only be handled according to the way this era is handled.
"Xiangli, go and take office."
"promise."
After driving all day, everyone was nervous, and finally arrived at Ren at sunset. As soon as they walked into Ren, they saw Aunt Mei rushing to greet them.
"National Master, the master of the family has invited me."
Mei Gu glanced at the ox cart, and then said in a solemn tone: "The head of the family has asked the doctor in advance, and the national master can just go there."
"Thank you." Huang nodded, a smile appeared on his face. He was very grateful to Mei Gu and Bai Xue: "Please lead the way."
"Please, Imperial Master."
Following Aunt Mei, not long after, she saw Bai Xue, who was dressed in men's clothing. Huang held his hands in greeting and said, "Thank you, Master Bai, for your help. Huang is grateful."
Bai Xue smiled slightly: "There is no need for the Imperial Master to do this. It is better to deal with the injury first."
"Thank you."
Half an hour later, Aang Ye treated his wounds, changed into clean clothes, and met Bai Xue again.
In the room, Bai Xue and Huang sat opposite each other, with wine and food on their desks, and Mei Gu was waiting on them.
"What happened that caused the Mo family to target the imperial master?"
Glancing at Bai Xue, Huang chuckled and said, "I met a Mohist descendant in Xinzheng. He called Shen Buhu's reform a tyranny and passed it on to the Mohist headquarters."
"At that time, I had some interactions with Shen Buhe. I needed Shen Buhe to be safe and sound, so I found this person and tried to persuade him."
"The other party mentioned Mohist thoughts and I criticized him. I think I offended the Mohists because of this."
Bai Xue came to support him, and Huang was not ignorant. Seeing Bai Xue's curiosity, he told him everything.
Taking a sip of Lu wine, Bai Xue smiled bitterly: "In this case, the Mo family will suffer heavy losses from this assassination, and I'm afraid they will be pursued endlessly!"
