Soldiers 1
It was approaching night.
Doctor Huang and the middle-aged woman came over again.
"Mrs. Chen, are you feeling better?" The middle-aged woman spoke very kindly, holding a lunch box in her hand, which looked quite heavy.
Doctor Huang followed behind him carrying a medicine box.
"Madam Zhou."
Chen Wanyue propped herself up from the bed, the blanket she was wearing slipped halfway down her shoulders, her hair was unkempt and casually draped over her shoulders, with some stray hair on her forehead.
Her skin is as white as snow and she doesn't look haggard at all.
The middle-aged woman felt pity for her and stepped forward to cover her with the quilt: "What a white face this little girl has."
"How can it be as exaggerated as you say?" Chen Wanyue smiled faintly.
Doctor Huang pulled a stool over and sat down to check on Shen Wanyue: "Same as this morning."
"Yeah." Chen Wanyue retracted her slender hand and put it on the quilt, smiling, "Doctor Huang, I heard you mention girls this morning. I thought about how young they are and how full of vigor they are. If I had her courage, I probably wouldn't be so sick."
Doctor Huang sighed, smiled bitterly and said, "A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. She has been brave since she was young. I remember when we were still in the military camp, she originally came to look for me, but she was attracted by a soldier wrestling nearby, which made me worry."
"Really?" Shen Wanyue agreed.
Talking about his daughter, Doctor Huang smiled and talked to her while sorting out the medicine box: "She went missing once, and I asked a few young soldiers to go look for her. We found her among a pile of dead snakes. Haha, she was covered in blood. When she saw me, she laughed out loud and said, 'Daddy, these snakes can be used as medicine for you.' So I beat her up." After saying this, he shook his head, his deep eyes full of memories.
"Doctor Huang's daughter is very brave." Shen Wanyue couldn't help but think of Zhou Wan's father. They are both fathers, so why is there such a big difference?
"But you are young and ignorant, and you dare to touch anything. Well, I missed her so much this year and didn't even come back to see her." Although he was complaining, there was a lot of tenderness in his eyes.
"Haha, maybe she heard your thoughts and is on her way back."
Doctor Huang waved his hand: "How can she still remember the old man?"
Seeing that he had almost finished cleaning up his hands, Chen Wanyue raised her eyelids, and her long eyelashes cast shadows under her eyes: "If Doctor Huang doesn't mind, I can embroider the incomplete handkerchief for you."
Doctor Huang was slightly surprised, and paused his hand movements, looking at her: "Madam Shen, are you willing?" After all, she was still making excuses this morning.
She smiled: "Oh, maybe it's because I just woke up. I felt weak in my hands in the morning, but now the discomfort in my hands has disappeared."
"That's great." Doctor Huang was pleased, "But Madam Shen, your health..."
"It doesn't matter. If Doctor Huang is worried that my cooking skills are not good enough..."
"No." Doctor Huang interrupted, "I'll take it out right now."
Shen Wanyue watched him carefully take it out from his arms, with several layers of cloth folded outside the handkerchief.
“….”
"Here you go." Doctor Huang put it in her hand.
"Doctor Huang's daughter has great craftsmanship." Chen Wanyue looked at it for a while and said, "The gap is not too big. It should be finished tomorrow afternoon."
"That's great." Doctor Huang breathed a sigh of relief, and said cheerfully, "Haha, if the girl knew that the carefully embroidered handkerchief was ruined, I'm afraid she would torment me again."
Shen Wanyue said politely: “It’s too late for Dr. Huang’s daughter to feel sorry for her father.”
The middle-aged woman also said a few words.
After giving a few instructions, the two left.
Chen Wanyue could no longer hold on, she covered her chest with her hands and gasped: "Huff--"
“Cough cough cough!”
Her body trembled with each cough, her long eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings, and the shadows under her eyes did not make her look haggard, but rather more charming.
It's getting dark.
Before they left, they lit candles in her room.
"One year..." Shen Wanyue stroked the pattern with both hands and talked to herself.
She didn't hold out much hope. She didn't know whether Dr. Huang's daughter was still alive. If she was dead, then it would be useless.
But if you are still alive, you have a chance to survive.
From what I heard from Dr. Huang, she is quite capable and might be able to help me.
so....
“Please find me…” Shen Wanyue stabbed the needle in her hand towards the handkerchief.
He then pricked his finger with a needle, and a drop of blood slowly seeped into the thin thread.
This is why I am so eager to use this method. Even in front of the emperor, I am not so eager.
She murmured to herself: "Come on...Come on..."
Two "whoosh" sounds of wind blew into the house, and the tightly closed windows were blown open by the wind.
Shen Wanyue did not stop her movements and continued embroidering slowly, not being disturbed by the surroundings at all.
But the body couldn't bear it: "Cough cough....cough cough!"
His shoulders trembled.
The scene this time was very similar to when Madam Li and Zhou Wan came to find me.
Could it be that Dr. Huang's daughter has already...
"How did the handkerchief get into your hand?" an anxious female voice rang in my ears.
The wind grew stronger, and Chen Wanyue's hair, which had not been tied up, fluttered in the night wind, and the hair on her forehead would prick her eyes from time to time.
"Are you Dr. Huang's daughter?" She closed her eyes.
The female voice: "Yes, do you know my father?"
"He gave it to me and asked me to embroider it."
The female voice didn't sound again, and there was a pause: "Is he okay?"
"...Very energetic." Chen Wanyue added, "He misses you very much."
"I... am sorry, father." The girl's voice was low.
Shen Wanyue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said, "I can easily recruit you, then..."
"Yes, I died." The girl said calmly, "I missed my daddy so much before I died."
She spoke again: "How can you let my soul come over? Can I talk to you and pass it to Daddy?"
Chen Wanyue did not answer first, but asked again: "How long have you been dead?"
The girl's voice was a little anxious: "He died in the afternoon... Who remembers this? Answer my question quickly."
"Logically speaking, it's possible." Shen Wanyue's eyes turned and she thought of a way.
If she can enter other people's bodies, does that mean others can enter her body?
After having this thought, Shen Wanyue raised the corner of her mouth and said tentatively: "Maybe... you can use my body to meet your father."
"Is that okay?" The woman was very excited. "You can ask for any conditions you want!"
"Wait for me to try." Chen Wanyue waited for her soul to leave her body, but she didn't expect that she would succeed at the first try.
It's just that my body feels so uncomfortable when I leave.
But the soul can only survive if it meets Dr. Huang's daughter.
"That's great. I can finally see my dad again." The girl said while choking with sobs.
Chen Wanyue said: "I called you here because I am seriously ill and I have no choice but to find you and hope to ask for your help."
"Well..." the girl said, "My body is dead, I'm afraid you can't use it."
“How could it be?” For the first time, Chen Wanyue spoke out all her speculations about her abilities in front of an outsider. “The people I can summon are all souls who died unjustly and can enter dead bodies. I can summon you because you have a knot in your heart.”
The girl's voice turned to resentment, and she said, "Yes, I regret it and feel wronged."
She regretted not staying with her father and fulfilling her filial duties...and she also resented that man!
"I can help you." Chen Wanyue said, "As long as you specify that you want me to help you redress your grievances, you can let me enter your body."
"real?!"
"nature."
According to the previous two times, the person needs to explain in person, and there are conditions...
"I can help you clear your name and allow you to talk to your father again. All I need is your body."
"Of course, I'm already dead, so what's the harm in dying together?"
This meant that Shen Wanyue needed to complete two commissions from this woman, and now was the time to complete the first one.
"Can you try to enter my body?"
"good."
The next moment, a cold wind blew and the decorations in the house banged.
When she opened her eyes again, she was in Shen Wanyue's body.
After coming in, she also discovered how serious the "terminally ill" that Shen Wanyue mentioned was.
"Ahem... Okay, really I can! I can finally talk to my father again."
Chen Wanyue almost understood her own abilities, and reminded: "After I fulfill your 'wish', I will return to my own body, so don't reveal your identity."
"Okay, I promise you." The girl looked at the pair of slender and beautiful hands and exclaimed, "Beautiful. Come to think of it, I haven't asked your name yet. Oh, my name is Lu Zhiyao."
“Chen Wanyue, fortunately.”
Lu Zhiyao thought about the conversation carefully and raised her delicate eyebrows: "No, if you return to your body, doesn't that mean you will still die?"
Chen Wanyue said: "I am too weak to go too far. I will borrow your body to find a way to save myself."
Lu Zhiyao touched his nose and said, "I'm afraid you will be disappointed. My eyes have been dug out."
“…Nothing.”
"What is your grievance?"
Lu Zhiyao frowned and said, "I left home and joined the army."
"!" Shen Wanyue's eyelids jumped. Wouldn't she be discovered?
"I know the doctors there and have some connections with them." She continued, "Since I was a child, I knew that my body was different from that of an average person. Living in the army with my father, I saw the cruelty of war and the people who lost their families, so I wanted to do something.
I know that my ability is weak, but as long as I can change a little, it is progress. With the help of my acquaintances, I sneaked into the army and proved my worth in battles. Not long ago, during the invasion of foreign tribes, I captured the head of General Dashidang! "
Chen Wanyue could see the light in Lu Zhiyao's eyes.
"But the captain I followed was jealous of my military achievements and wanted to tell others that he was the one who took the head. With this head, I can get a reward, no longer be a small soldier, and can make greater contributions to the country. But the battlefield is chaotic, and there are people around who have followed him through life and death for many years. As long as they bite to death, there is nothing I can do."
Her voice became a little hoarse as she spoke later: "He even wanted to kill me. During the resistance, my eyes were stabbed blind. Fortunately, someone came and I was able to survive. But that night, he refused to give in and stabbed my heart at night."
"I want him to die, and I want to take back the credit that belongs to me."
Shen Wanyue took a deep breath.
Even if she doesn't know the military rules, she can still improve her status in the army by taking the heads of enemy generals.
In fact, it is far more than that. It is even possible that he will go to Beijing to meet the emperor after stability has been achieved!
