Frontline camp.
After Lu Huaiyan led his troops to provide support, everyone in the camp felt even more depressed.
Seeing them leave in a panic, it was not difficult for everyone to guess that the situation at the front line was probably extremely critical.
Inside the tents, the wounded were lying or sitting in the simple medical area to rest, groaning in pain, while military doctors were busy treating their wounds.
Fortunately, the injuries of the people were not serious. After treating them, the military doctors rushed to the soldiers' tents to help.
Inside the tents of the masses, the women were thin, their faces filled with anxiety and worry. They paced back and forth aimlessly in the tents, sighing and groaning as they walked, their steps hurried and messy.
The others who were lying on the ground to rest were already feeling uncomfortable, and seeing her swaying back and forth in front of their eyes made them feel even more uncomfortable.
Especially the "欻欻" sound of footsteps, which made people feel particularly uncomfortable.
Finally, an old man with wrinkles all over his face and white hair couldn't bear it any longer. He clenched his crutches, stood up tremblingly, raised his head and looked in the direction of the woman, his voice hoarse and weak, "Big sister, can you take a break? You've been wandering around here for a long time. I just felt better, but you made me dizzy. I really can't stand it anymore!"
Li Xiulan paused, as if she was suddenly furious. She turned her head to look at the old man, not wanting to pretend anymore. She stared at him and cursed him viciously, "You old fool, stop meddling in other people's business! This camp is not yours to decide. I can walk however I want!"
"You..." The old man kindly reminded her, but she scolded him. His face turned red instantly. In the end, he sighed helplessly and sat down. "It's really unreasonable."
A young girl nearby saw the old man being scolded for no reason, frowned, and couldn't stand it anymore. She said in a cold voice: "Sister, everyone is feeling unwell now. I see that you are full of energy and don't look like you have any problems. If you can't sit still, can you go somewhere else?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiulan sneered and shouted, "Little girl, no matter what, it is not your turn to teach me a lesson here. I am upset, so what's wrong with walking around? If you dare to say another word, do you believe I will tear your mouth apart!?"
Li Xiulan's voice was sharp and she sounded sarcastic, which frightened the girl so much that her face turned pale and she dared not speak again.
The others nearby couldn't stand it either, but knowing that Li Xiulan was a mean person, they only dared to murmur in a low voice.
"Why is this person so vicious? He scolds everyone he catches..."
"You wouldn't put on this face in front of an officer. You're really good at pretending."
"It's really eye-opening to me that even a master like me is scolding people."
“…”
Several people were whispering to each other. Li Xiulan snorted coldly, pretending not to hear anything, and continued pacing back and forth.
Her eyes were always glancing towards the medical tent intentionally or unintentionally, with an imperceptible darkness in her eyes.
I don’t know how long it took, but she seemed to be unable to stay there any longer and walked out of the temporary tent.
When the people resting in the tent saw her leave, they instantly breathed a sigh of relief and cheered silently in their hearts.
This person was really troublesome and finally left.
After Li Xiulan walked out of the tent, she looked around and walked directly towards the medical tent.
When she reached the vicinity of the medical tent, she stopped again as if she had some concerns.
She paced back and forth at the door of the medical tent, but not long after, the tent curtain was lifted.
Wei Zhao was holding a bag containing some of his medical tools. He had just been inside for a long time and was just about to take a break. However, as soon as he went out, he ran into Li Xiulan's furtive figure.
He frowned tightly, his eyes turned cold instantly, his gaze locked on Li Xiulan, he took a few steps forward to stop her, and asked coldly: "What are you doing sneaking around here?"
Li Xiulan's face froze. After a moment, she revealed an extremely uncomfortable expression. Her brows were tightly knitted. She faltered as she explained, "I, I feel very uncomfortable and dizzy. I want to get some fresh air to wake myself up..."
As she spoke, her body fell limply towards Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao's brows were slightly furrowed, and he reacted extremely quickly. He immediately reached out to hold her arm. After steadying her, he quickly pushed her away as if he had some concerns, and took half a step back. His movements were clean and neat.
Seeing Wei Zhao's smooth evasion, Li Xiulan pretended to be furious and cursed, "Why are you like this? I'm already in such pain, and you still push me. Aren't you afraid that something will happen to me?"
"You look like a decent person on the surface, but I didn't expect you to be so vicious in your heart!"
Li Xiulan scolded him several times before turning and leaving. Her back was angry, and there was a barely perceptible panic in her.
Wei Zhao watched her leaving without saying anything. When he lowered his head, he suddenly found a ball of paper in his bag.
He subconsciously frowned, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes, he raised his eyes and looked around calmly, and after confirming that no one noticed, he calmly hid the note in his bag, turned around and walked into the tent as if nothing had happened.
On the other side, Li Xiulan didn't go far.
She stood around the tent, pretending to be calm and wandering around for a long time, observing the patrol patterns around her and inquiring about the locations of Political Commissar Wang and Chief Fang.
It was not until she saw the two men leave the tent with her own eyes that she perked up.
She waited at the main tent for a long time, and finally found an opportunity when a guard left and no one was paying attention, and she tiptoed into the main tent.
