"Who have you taken a fancy to?" She closed her eyes wearily, looking completely uninterested.
The pharyngeal voice is weak.
In reality, she was clenching the hem of her clothes in her hands, and a thin layer of cold sweat seeped out from under the covers.
When Zheng Quchi woke up this time, he felt weak and powerless all over his body. He felt so weak that he couldn't even turn over in bed.
"Playing dumb?" Mo Ye stared at her for a long time, and seeing that she remained unmoved, he curled his lips into a wicked smile: "But if you really develop different feelings for that monster, you will only be asking for trouble in the end. Do you still remember this lesson?"
Zheng Quchi's dark eyelashes trembled slightly, and his white lips were pressed together, as if he were thinking about something.
How could he possibly have imagined her dramatic and bizarre experience?
Even she herself felt that she was a complete traitor!
"Mo Ye, why have you stayed in this remote place? Is there something you're after, or something you're plotting?" She changed the subject.
Mo Ye scoffed, his domineering gaze sweeping over her as if he could see right through her: "My affairs are none of your business. Instead of worrying about these things, you should worry about your own life. You're badly injured this time. If you can't get some Saint-level or higher healing medicine, you probably won't live much longer."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Quchi suddenly opened her eyes, staring blankly downwards. She remained silent for a moment, her face showing no sign of panic, even though her heart was clenching tightly at that moment.
Anyone would find it difficult to remain calm upon hearing that their life is nearing its end, but she had recently experienced a life-or-death situation, so she wasn't too distraught at this moment.
After a long silence, her low, hoarse voice rang out: "Really? Then do you have this kind of sacred medicine?"
She didn't believe he brought this up on a whim or simply to mock her.
Mo Ye bent down, one elbow resting on his knee, a large shadow looming over his handsome face: "Of course I have it, but what are you going to offer in exchange for such expensive medicine? If you think I can be fooled by your false promises again, you're dreaming. You'd better keep your previous deal, or maybe..."
When Zheng Quchi heard that he had medicine, and that the so-called holy medicine was not just a vague concept, he finally felt at ease.
"I'm tired..."
She had exhausted all her energy. After a brief moment of lucidity, she fainted again.
Halfway through his sentence, the other person lost consciousness, leaving him talking to himself. Mo Ye suddenly stood up, his anger blazing, and angrily kicked over a low stool.
"This is a real problem. Go and call the medic!"
"yes."
The guards went immediately.
——
Mo Ye wasn't always in the tent. By the time the military doctor came running over with his medicine box, he had already left behind these tedious matters and gone to do his official duties.
The military doctor didn't need anyone to help him. After the guards left, he skillfully put down his medicine box, straightened the stool that Mo Ye had kicked over, and sat down beside the bed to take her pulse.
After a long while, he came to a conclusion and then summoned a guard to bring the prepared medicine. After feeding Zheng Quchi the medicine, he took out silver needles and performed acupuncture on her forehead, temples, and ten fingers.
After about half an hour, just as he was about to put away the needles, Zheng Quchi opened his eyes again.
However, due to falling into a coma for the second time and having a fever all day yesterday, he is still somewhat slow to react.
"Girl, you're awake?"
A stranger greeted her from the side. Zheng Quchi turned her eyes and saw a thin old man smiling at her with a kind attitude.
She composed herself slightly and whispered, "You... are you a military doctor?"
“Yes, sir, are you feeling any better?” he asked again.
Zheng Quchi nodded slightly.
I am indeed feeling better. At least the dizziness and palpitations that I had before have disappeared. Although I am still very weak, at least I am not feeling any worse.
"Thank you, military doctor."
"Say less. I'll have someone bring you a bowl of wheat porridge in a little while. Drink some of it. When you get up tomorrow morning, I'll come over and give you another acupuncture treatment."
Zheng Quchi was at a loss for words, and could only politely say, "Thank you for your help, Army Doctor."
She hadn't been fond of Julu Kingdom before because of Mo Ye, but this time, thanks to the meticulous care of the military doctor, she realized that no matter which country you're in, there are both wicked and kind people.
Even in military camps.
Of course, she estimated that this was on the premise that the other party had no idea about her identity or background and simply treated her as a patient. Otherwise, given the tense relationship between Ye and Julu, how could they treat a Ye craftsman so kindly without any reservations?
The military doctor glanced at her a few more times. The girl's skin was terribly dark, but she was both polite and charming. No wonder she won Sima's favor.
As he finished administering the injections, he gently applied more pressure and reassured the patient, "The fever has subsided, but your wound still needs medication. Don't worry, the old man's medicine is very effective; it won't leave any scars on your body."
Apply the medicine?
After a moment's thought, Zheng Quchi's expression suddenly tensed up. She looked up and saw that all her clothes had been changed. She hurriedly asked, "Who changed the medicine on my clothes? Where are my things?"
As she spoke, she tried to sit up, but every movement inevitably aggravated her wounds. She was in so much pain that large beads of cold sweat dripped from her forehead, and her dry, pale lips were completely bloodless.
"Oh dear, what are you doing? Your old clothes and things are all over there. Don't rush, don't get up, I'll get them for you."
