Chapter 113: The Doctor



"Xiao Huaijin?" Ridamuzi looked at the person in front of him with a changeable look.

"Flying slave."

Fei Nu appeared behind him, and Xiao Jue handed He Yan to him: "Take them down."

Fei Nu supported He Yan, Song Tao Tao climbed up and followed behind him, and the two of them arrived at the martial arts arena. At this moment, there were people all around, and Fei Nu asked He Yan: "Can you still hold on?"

He Yan nodded.

"Sit down first," Fei Nu helped her sit under the tree, leaning against it, "The doctor will be here soon."

Doctor? He Yan was puzzled. Liangzhou Guards only had one female doctor, Shen Muxue, who was being stared at by the Qiang soldiers at the moment. Beautiful women always attracted attention in the military camp.

She raised her eyes and looked towards the stage.

On the martial arts stage.

"Aren't you looking for me to spar with?" Xiao Jue casually drew his sword, looked at the person in front of him with his black eyes, and said with a slight curl of his lips: "Go ahead."

Ridamuzi asked: "Are you Xiao Huaijin?"

Xiao Jue smiled and said, "It's absolutely genuine."

Everyone knows that the Wei Dynasty has two famous generals, General Fengyun Xiao Huaijin and General Feihong He Rufei. But just like He Yan had never fought against the Nanman people, Xiao Jue had never fought against the Xiqiang people. He had heard of their reputations, but this was the first time he had actually met them.

I have never seen Xiao Jue's true appearance, and the news I received before was that Xiao Jue went to Zhangtai. Given the time it took to go from Zhangtai to Liangzhou, it is impossible for him to come back here.

But the sword in his hand...is not like an ordinary sword.

Seeing that he was hesitant to move, Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows: "Are you scared?"

Ridamuzi sneered, "Just pretending!" and rushed over with a knife.

But the young man didn't move at all, the sword in his hand was cold and sharp, and his movements were as swift and fierce as falling flowers, breaking the curved knife directly, which was dazzling and overwhelming. Ridamuzi's morale had just been broken in the fight with He Yan, and at this moment he was unable to cope with it, and was defeated step by step. The Yinqiu sword pierced straight into his chest.

"Commander!" This was the cry of his subordinates.

Ridamuzi leaned back and was not stabbed in the chest by Xiao Jue, but he broke through his armor and threw it down with the tip of the sword. In an instant, his chest was no longer protected by armor.

"Western Qiang warriors?" Xiao Jue's lips curled up slightly, and he said sarcastically, "Nothing more than that."

Ridamuzi was furious, but he had seen from the fight just now that he was no match for Xiao Jue. Liangzhou Guards were full of talents, including He Yan. A new soldier had such ability. Who knew if there would be others? There was no need to continue the competition in the martial arts arena. This time, he lost his wife and his soldiers, two of his favorite generals, and his subordinates saw him in such a cowardly state. His morale was already lost. Any further delay would only cause trouble. He had to focus on business.

He turned his head to look at the stage, but... why was there still no movement?

The young man wiped the sword elegantly and glanced at him with a half-smile: "What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for the news of the ambush by the Wulu River?"

Ridamuzi was shocked and slowly raised his head.

"Then you're probably going to be disappointed." Xiao Jue chuckled, with indifference in his eyes.

"Kemuzhi!" Ridamuzi retreated quickly and shouted, "Granary! Granary!"

"No news," the subordinates said in a panic, "Commander, they haven't come back yet!"

Xiao Jue was slightly stunned.

Some people in the audience laughed.

Ridamuzi followed the sound and saw the culprit who almost caused him to fall. The black-clothed youth named He Yan had a happy smile on his face. Her weak voice was very soft, but her words were still so annoying. She said, "It is too despicable to secretly set fire to other people's granaries, so there were archers ready there early. Commander, your subordinates can't come back."

Already prepared?!

Ridamuzi suddenly realized that something was wrong. He had been prepared for a long time and thought he could finally close the net with satisfaction. However, he didn't know that while the mantis stalks the cicada, there is an oriole behind. He thought he was the mantis, but he didn't know there was an oriole behind.

Got fooled!

I'm afraid that Xiao Jue's going to Zhangtai is fake, and that the new soldiers of Liangzhou Guards are vulnerable is also fake. Everything is fake. Everything is just to trick them. The insider here has been exposed long ago!

"We've been tricked! Run!" He shouted to the people below the stage, "There are ambushes by the river!"

Ambush? The Qiang soldiers were confused. Aren't the ambush troops on the river their own? Their purpose was to capture all the new recruits of Liangzhou Guards. But what did this mean...

"Since you're here," Xiao Jue looked at him, "Don't leave."

Ridamuzi gritted his teeth, and drew his sword in front of him. At this point, the morale of the Western Qiang was low, and they were trapped. The only thing they could do was to fight to the death. However, if he could escape, he would have a chance to come back in the future!

"Warriors!" He raised his knife. "Kill them! Kill them all!"

The soldiers behind him raised their swords and started killing people wantonly, fighting with the new recruits of Liangzhou Guards. Someone secretly set off a signal, and a fireworks display flew up and exploded in the air.

Ridamuzi turned around and tried to escape in the chaos.

As soon as he turned around, he felt someone holding his shoulder.

"Want to run?" The young governor's facial features were stunningly beautiful at this moment, but his smile was indifferent. "Can you run away?"

This is where the fight began.

At this moment, a deafening roar was heard from the front. Following the sound, they saw an army running towards them from the direction of Wulu River. They were all wearing black armor and black skirts. The man in the front was riding a horse and holding a battle flag with the word "South" written on it.

"It's the Southern Army! The Nine-Flag Battalion!"

"The Southern Army is here!"

He Yan's eyes were almost closed. In order to prevent her from getting hurt in the chaos, Fei Nu helped her retreat. He Yan could only take a quick glance.

An endless stream of Southern Army soldiers came from the riverside, seemingly endless.

Reinforcements are coming... Before she passed out, she looked in the direction of Xiao Jue with only one thought in her mind.

So... this was his idea.

This was a terrible war.

Ridamuzi would not be so foolish as to lead only a thousand soldiers to provoke Liangzhou Wei. He simply occupied the village closest to Wulu River, crossed the river at night, and set up an ambush at the riverside. If the new soldiers of Liangzhou Wei could not resist and wanted to withdraw, they would be like sheep entering the tiger's mouth and would be caught in one fell swoop.

But man proposes, God disposes. Perhaps Ridamuzi himself did not expect that when he was "sparring" with others in the martial arts arena, the ambush by the Wulu River would not go smoothly. He thought that all the new recruits were around the martial arts arena, but for some reason, another crossbow team hid in the jungle by the Wulu River. When the Qiang people appeared, they shot arrows, and the Qiang people were in disarray, and they took the lead in fighting with these new recruits. Then, Xiao Jue, who was not supposed to come back at this time, suddenly appeared and brought back 10,000 Nanfu soldiers.

Ten thousand Southern Army soldiers would not win easily against more than ten thousand Qiang people. But if they added the high-spirited new recruits from Liangzhou Guards and the invincible Nine Banners Camp, they would naturally be invincible.

The game that was thought to be a sure win was turned upside down in a moment.

All of Ridamuzi's close associates had died in the battle. He knew that he would never be able to escape, and he was unwilling to be a captive to be slaughtered, so he took a curved knife and slit his throat, committing suicide.

With the death of their leader, the remaining Qiang people were leaderless and quickly abandoned their weapons and fled.

It ended faster than expected.

The Liangzhou Guards' martial arts arena, the foot of Baiyue Mountain, the horse path, and the Wulu River were all littered with corpses. In this battle, the Liangzhou Guards also suffered many casualties in their new recruits. The worst casualty was probably the patrol sentry who was secretly killed last night. The second worst casualty was the crossbowmen at the Wulu River, who were the first to be attacked by the Qiang people.

The living, lightly wounded soldiers helped clean up the battlefield and carried out the bodies of their comrades. The seriously wounded were sent to the infirmary to be treated by Shen Muxue and her servants.

Xiao Jue walked out and Shen Han followed behind him.

"Uncle!" Cheng Lisu was dragged over by Chiwu and said in shock, "Why did you come back just now? You scared me to death. I thought I was going to die here today!"

Before Xiao Jue could say anything, Cheng Lisu saw Shen Han following behind Xiao Jue. Thinking of the suffering he had suffered from Shen Han a few days ago, he immediately complained to the elder who came over and said, "Uncle! Tell me about Master Shen. If it weren't for Brother He today, that guy named Mutou would have started a killing spree in Liangzhou Guard. Brother He helped us, but in the end, he was locked up in the dungeon by Master Shen a few days ago! It's too unfair!"

"Dungeon?" Xiao Jue glanced at Shen Han: "What's going on?"

Shen Han was overwhelmed and replied, "...It's a long story. The situation was urgent at the time and I didn't dare to confirm He Yan's identity."

"You still wrongly accused him of murder! What happened? You arrested Brother He and released the real murderer! My brother saved you today without any grudges, and you all have to apologize to him later!"

"That's enough." Xiao Jue scolded, "Chiwu, take Cheng Lisu back."

"Hey? Uncle, where are you going?"

"I'm going to change my clothes." Xiao Jue was too lazy to pay attention to him and said to Shen Han: "Follow me, I have something to ask you."

He came back in a hurry, and he had been on the road all the time. He had just experienced a fierce battle, and his body was covered with blood and dust. As soon as he returned to the house, he quickly showered and changed into clean clothes, and then he went out and ran into a young man in white.

This young man was about the same age as Xiao Jue, with delicate features, and a gentle manner. He always had a smile on his face, and a narcissus crane playing with water was embroidered on his clothes. Even in the middle of winter, he was holding a folding fan and waving it gently, not feeling the cold at all.

Seeing Xiao Jue, he smiled and said, "Are you injured? Do you want me to take a look?"

Xiao Jue raised his hand to stop him from moving forward: "No need, there's a dying person next door, look at that one."

"Oh?" The young man looked towards the next room with an expression of reluctance. "I, the White-robed Saint Hand Lin Shuanghe, have always only treated women. You are an exception. We haven't seen each other for a few years. As soon as you came, you asked me to break the rules. Now you even want to see your soldiers? How am I different from those street doctors?"

Xiao Jue: "Are you going or not?"

Lin Shuanghe opened her fan with a swish and said modestly, "Let's go."

Shen Han was shocked when he heard this. This gentle-looking young man was actually the white-robed master Lin Shuanghe? Lin Shuanghe treated He Yan? In this case, the relationship between He Yan and Xiao Jue was indeed unusual. Thinking of how he had locked He Yan up in the dungeon before, Shen Han couldn't help but have a headache.

This really stirred up a hornet's nest!

Several people went to He Yan's room. In the room, Song Taotao was sitting in front of the bed, wiping He Yan's sweat. He Yan hadn't woken up yet. The mattress under him was stained with blood. No one knew where he was injured. Song Taotao wanted to help, but he didn't dare to do it easily. Shen Muxue was in the clinic treating seriously ill patients and couldn't leave. Seeing Xiao Jue coming with a young man, he immediately said happily: "Second Master Xiao!"

"The doctor is here." Xiao Jue said, "You can go out now."

Song Taotao looked at Lin Shuanghe and was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Lin?"

Shuojing is neither small nor big. Song Ci knows Lin Shuanghe's father and the two have met before, so they are old acquaintances.

"Miss Song, long time no see." Lin Shuanghe waved her folding fan and said, "I'm here to see this little brother."

"But you are not, not..." Song Taotao said hesitantly.

"I really only treat women," Lin Shuanghe sighed, "but I have to be loyal to the person who entrusted me with the task, so I will make an exception for this one time. It won't be the same again."

Song Taotao wanted to say something, but Xiao Jue said to her, "Miss Song, if you have nothing else to do, please leave first, so as not to delay the doctor's treatment."

"...Okay." The little girl got up and went out. Xiao Jue closed the door behind her. Song Taotao looked at the closed door and suddenly realized something. Xiao Jue was still in there, so how could he not delay the doctor's treatment?

How can that be possible!

Inside the house, Lin Shuanghe walked to He Yan's bed, put his box on the small table, and said as he opened the box, "Who is this brother? How can he live next to you? Is he very skilled? He looks a little thin."

Xiao Jue: "Stop talking nonsense."

Lin Shuanghe disagreed: "You didn't have to let Miss Song go just now. It seems that she likes this brother very much. Even if she watched from the side, it wouldn't cause any trouble. Why did you chase her away and make her anxious outside the door?"

Xiao Jue was speechless for a moment: "You think too much, I let her go because I was afraid she would scare you."

"Scare me?" Lin Shuanghe asked curiously, "Why would you scare me? It's not some complicated disease." As he said this, he was about to reach out to take off He Yan's clothes.

Xiao Jue held his arm.

Lin Shuanghe raised his head: "What?"

"Take the pulse first."

"He was injured? What kind of pulse is that? I know what happened as soon as I see it. We need to bandage the wound first!"

Xiao Jue glanced at him and said, "I told you to take his pulse first."

"Xiao Huaijin, what's wrong with you now?" Lin Shuanghe was confused. "Are you going to control even how I practice medicine?"

"Do you want to take it?"

"Check, check, check!" Lin Shuanghe lost his temper under Xiao Jue's gaze, so he had to reach out and feel He Yan's pulse first. As soon as he felt the pulse, his expression changed. At first, he couldn't believe his feeling, and checked it twice. Finally, he looked at Xiao Jue: "She is..."

Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows: "That's right."

Lin Shuanghe jumped up: "Xiao Jue! You actually have a beautiful woman hidden in your golden house!"

Xiao Jue frowned and looked outside the door: "You are so loud, are you afraid that not enough people will know?"

"Others don't know, who knows now?" Lin Shuanghe asked in a low voice.

"Just you and me, Fei Nu."

"This sister is fine," Lin Shuanghe was used to calling all girls "sister", and the look he gave He Yan was different, "I was wondering why you let someone live next door to you, it turns out you have other intentions. What is your relationship? We haven't seen each other for so long, you finally have a girl you like? Why didn't you tell me, where is your sister-in-law from? Why did you come to Liangzhouwei? It must be for you, right? You too, of course a girl should be treated with love, you brought someone to such a desolate place to suffer, are you still a human being?"

Xiao Jue couldn't stand it any longer: "Are you done? If you say a few more words, she will die."

"How can you curse a little girl like that?" Lin Shuanghe scolded him, "Come here and help me take off her clothes. Find a piece of cloth to cover the rest of her body, leaving her waist exposed."

Xiao Jue almost suspected that he had heard it wrongly, and asked, "What did you say?"

"Come and help. Although the doctor has no parents in front of him, if it was just an ordinary girl, I wouldn't care so much, but this is yours, so of course you come to get rid of it. Otherwise, if something goes wrong in the future, you will have a grudge against me and cause trouble for me, what should I do?"

"What do you mean my people?" Xiao Jue's forehead was throbbing with veins. "I have nothing to do with her."

"We live together, how can we say we have nothing to do with each other? Since you already know her identity, you must be closely related. Hurry up, I just felt her pulse, and it's not good. She's already very weak." Lin Shuanghe urged, "I'll use hot water to clean her wound first. She has the wound on her waist."

Xiao Jue thought about the blood on his hands when he helped He Yan just now, took a deep breath, and then walked to He Yan's side. After washing his hands, he slowly undressed He Yan.

He turned his head and looked to the other side, not looking at He Yan. Even so, he still inevitably touched He Yan's body. The skin under his hands was delicate and smooth, and it had a completely different touch from the men in the military camp. It was at this moment that he seemed to realize that He Yan was indeed a woman.

This man was usually lively and was on good terms with everyone in Liangzhouwei. He was also cheerful and even more outgoing than any man. Over time, even though he knew she was a woman, he still treated her as a man.

The memory of the night when the woman's identity was discovered at the magistrate's residence in Liangzhou City came to his mind again. Yin Qiu cut He Yan's clothes into pieces. At that moment, he realized that the body that looked so strong and unparalleled on weekdays was actually covered with such fair skin.

Fragile and vulnerable.

He pulled a thin blanket over the side and wrapped half of He Yan's body up. He tried to untie her belt, but as soon as he started, he was surprised. He Yan's belt was too tight. Was it because she wanted to look beautiful? Judging from his behavior, it was impossible.

He untied his belt and immediately felt his palms were wet. The mattress under He Yan was stained red. Lin Shuanghe also stopped joking and reached out to check. He was stunned when he saw it and said solemnly, "She has a knife on her."

Xiao Jue: “What?”

Lin Shuanghe took out a small gold pliers and a silver needle from the box, and gently inserted the gold pliers into the body. On the bed, He Yan frowned in his coma, as if he was awakened by the pain, but he did not wake up in the end.

The pliers carefully removed a thin blade from the wound on her waist.

Xiao Jue's eyebrows twitched.

Lin Shuanghe said with a mixture of emotion and admiration: "This sister is really capable!"

Xiao Jue looked at the blade that was thrown into the plate. It was thin and sharp. Did she always carry such a thing on the martial arts stage? When did she get it? Was it when Ridamuzi stabbed her, or before that? If it was before that, in the previous two games, every time He Yan fought with others, the blade went deeper, like cutting flesh alive, and it was only painful. Ordinary men couldn't bear it, so how could He Yan bear it? That's it. Xiao Jue still remembered that when she rushed there, the boy even had a smile on his face. There was nothing wrong with him, and he fooled everyone.

Liars are used to pretending, but it would be a bit pitiful if she deceived herself.

"Who is this girl?" Lin Shuanghe asked Xiao Jue without raising his head while helping He Yan clean the wound.

"The daughter of the captain of the city gate."

"City Gate Captain?" Lin Shuanghe paused, "Why are you here? Are you here for you?"

"You're overthinking it," Xiao Jue sneered, "Make great achievements."

"What?"

"She said it herself." Xiao Jue looked out the window.

Lin Shuanghe pondered over this sentence for a long time, but could not figure out the meaning, so he said, "This girl is really extraordinary. She can endure things that ordinary people cannot endure. I have been practicing medicine for so many years and have treated countless women, but this is the first time I have met such a girl."

Lin Shuanghe took out a clean white cloth and bandaged He Yan who had been treated with medicine. He was not without emotion. He had treated countless women in Shuojing, with all kinds of strange diseases. Some thought that the birthmark on their forehead was ugly and asked him to help remove it. Some were weak since their mother's womb and asked him to prescribe a prescription to nourish their body. Some were married for many years without children and asked for a secret recipe to have children, and some were not favored by their husbands and asked him to prepare some beauty recipes to nourish their beauty.

Most of the people who could afford him were women from wealthy families who had never suffered any physical pain. Therefore, after being used to seeing the rich and expensive flowers in the world, the dogtail grass with such scars seemed particularly special.

"What is your relationship with her?" he asked.

Xiao Jue: “It doesn’t matter.”

"Why would you take care of her like this if it doesn't matter? You're even using me to order me around." Lin Shuanghe shook his head and said, "Forget it, what are you going to do with her in the future?"

"Disposal?"

"Don't think that a girl wearing your recruits' uniforms is really your soldier. I think she is a pretty lady, but look at how she has been tortured now. You can't let her stay in your army as a recruit forever, can you? Why not send her to Shen Muxue to help her? She can stay with you and not have to go to such dangerous places. This girl is so delicate and weak, she should be kept at home and well cared for, but you are so cruel to her and drive her away..."

"Weak?" Xiao Jue seemed amused by his words, and said slowly with a curled lip: "Before I rushed back, she had just chopped off the heads of two Western Qiang people."

Lin Shuanghe: “….”

"If I had come a little later, she would have chopped off the third one."

Lin Shuanghe's bandaged hands trembled for a moment, and after a long while, he laughed, "... then it is true that the real person does not show his true face, and if he shows his true face, he is not the real person, haha, haha."
