Xie Zhun took a few steps under everyone's watchful eyes...
The Duke and his wife, along with Eunuch Xu, felt sorry for him and quickly helped him up to stop him.
Xie Zhun, standing upright, bowed deeply towards Wei Xunfang...
As he stood up, a glint of light flickered in his eyes.
Grandpa Xu held Ning Xi'er's hand tightly, his voice choked with emotion, unable to utter a word of gratitude.
Ning Xi'er turned her gaze to Wei Xunfang, said nothing, and raised her chin.
Wei Xunfang came out and personally helped Xie Zhun up...
He stopped at Ning Xi'er's place and, under everyone's gaze, bowed deeply...
Qin Yuan could not hide his surprise.
Those around them saw this and bowed to Ning Xi'er in unison...
Ning Xi'er then calmed down and asked everyone to stand up.
Looking at Wei Xunfang again, Ning Xi'er's eyes were clear, showing neither resentment nor relief.
Ning Xi'er didn't bother arguing with him about his past rudeness, considering it was all for Xie Zhun's sake...
But if he forgets the humiliation he suffered today, she wouldn't mind making him remember it!
Everyone present was united by the same goal—to protect and assist Xie Zhun...
Witnessing Xie Zhun stand up again, everyone's fighting spirit was rekindled...
I felt an immense sense of motivation.
Inside the barracks, Yan Lang was busy enforcing discipline and had no time to pay attention to what was happening here.
Ning Xi'er took out fine wine and delicacies from her spatial storage and enjoyed the festivities with the villagers.
Of course, Xie Zhun was still sitting in a wheelchair in front of the villagers.
As night fell, Ning Xi'er took out more than ten tents from her spatial storage...
Of course, it was thanks to Xingming's help that the people of the Prince's Mansion and the Duke of Huguo's Mansion were finally able to avoid being exposed to the cold wind at night after a few days.
Xingming drank a bit too much at the banquet. Ning Xier only knew he was a heavy drinker, but because she kept reminding him, she was worried that drinking would cause him to make mistakes...
Therefore, we do not know his alcohol tolerance.
Xingming accepted toasts from the villagers and the people from the Wangfu and Huguofu, and seemed to be a little drunk.
Ning Xi'er had Xuan Lei and Xuan Dian help him into the tent and instructed them to take good care of him.
Xie Zhun rarely took a sip, and his face turned slightly red.
If he asked for more, Eunuch Xu would snatch the wine cup away.
I'm worried that his blood circulation is poor and that drinking alcohol will harm his health.
Xie Zhun chuckled, as if he were still the same young man he used to be, letting Eunuch Xu take care of him.
Eunuch Xu anticipated that after Xie Zhun "disappeared," he would certainly not rest, but would spend all his time practicing walking...
Otherwise, after being paralyzed for over ten years, even if the residual toxins were cleared, how could he have recovered so quickly and been able to walk again so soon...?
Eunuch Xu insisted on watching Xie Zhun sleep in the tent.
With Xingming's help, Ning Xi'er managed to extract a considerable amount of spiritual spring water, which seemed a bit wasteful for washing...
But after arriving in the wilderness, everyone finally spent the most joyful and peaceful night.
After Xuan Lei and Xuan Dian settled Xing Ming, they voluntarily joined Xuan Feng and Xuan Shuang to patrol the surrounding area.
The villagers worried that their vision would be poor when they got up at night, so even though they had few candles at home, they were willing to light them...
In the cold, silent night, it seems to provide an endless source of heat.
At dawn the next day, Ning Xi'er woke Xingming up early.
Xingming, still half-asleep, stood to one side. Ning Xier put the tent into her spatial storage and prepared steamed buns for everyone's breakfast...
Following the incidents involving Sun Zuo, Meng Yi, and the two supervising soldiers, Yan Lang rigorously enforced discipline...
The soldiers faced unprecedented pressure, while the convicts enjoyed unprecedented freedom.
Because Eunuch Xu promised to take on two more corvée labor duties, the supervising soldiers did not investigate Xie Zhun and Ning Xi'er's absence further.
Ning Xi'er: Reasonable slacking off.
After breakfast, Xie Zhun would still enter Ning Xi'er's medical space and walk for an hour with the aid of an exoskeleton...
Exoskeleton-assisted walking and corrective effects can achieve twice the results with half the effort, exceeding the benefits of dozens of hours of self-practice.
Xie Zhun's health recovered by leaps and bounds.
The arrangements for Wei Xunfang and Qin Yuan naturally needed to be put on the agenda.
Early that morning, Wei Xunfang and Qin Yuan mingled among the villagers and, led by the village chief, went to Pingyuan to investigate the situation.
Whether Xue Lin has arrived, and the possible candidates for the left and right supervisors of the camp, all need to be ascertained accurately.
While Xie Zhun was resting in the space, Ning Xi'er had nothing to do, so she asked the villagers to take her to dig up the vines they used to make cakes.
This is Ning Xi'er experiencing the desert up close for the first time.
Even in my past life, when I was on foreign aid missions, the desert was dotted with stone houses and thatched huts...
Before me stretched endless yellow sand, a desolate wasteland, devoid of any vegetation.
After walking for nearly half an hour, Ning Xi'er finally called out amidst the villagers' excited exclamations, "Look!"
Ning Xi'er disregarded her image, her chin almost touching the sand as she carefully examined the plant, which was no bigger than the palm of her hand.
It has no leaves, and its rhizomes spread out in all directions like a peacock's tail.
It's hard to imagine how big a cake could be made from a plant that doesn't even have branches or leaves.
Seeing Ning Xi'er's curiosity, the kind villagers helped dig out the vine roots and presented them to Ning Xi'er.
Surprisingly, the plant, which is small above ground, has a very developed root system that is several times larger than the plant itself.
This was the first time Ning Xi'er had seen this plant, and based on the shape of its roots, she had a guess in her mind...
It reminded me of a plant I saw in a video app in my past life...
Therefore, when the villagers gave it to her, it was extremely precious to them...
Ning Xi'er did not refuse.
