Chapter 612 A Letter from Yaoyao (Part 2)
One of them laughed and joked, "Hey, where are there so many enemies? Only you are so energetic every day and never make any mistakes. Who would want to come to our shabby place? There are only a few thieves who come here from time to time to take advantage of us."
Xiacheng is located in a fortress, but the environment is too harsh. Many big and strong men can't stand it. Those who can do it will try their best to be transferred after arriving.
Most of those who stay here are veterans who come from poor backgrounds and have to endure hard times.
After staying here for a long time, they gradually figured out the ways of those people outside. Sometimes they would go out to fight, cut off ears and come back to claim the credit, but more often, they would just stay in this small place, surrounded by the yellow sand and stone mountains.
Over time, that kind of character has long been worn away.
Only a rookie like Ye Yunfeng could muster up the energy.
Another man patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, what Afeng said is right. After all, we are defending the city, so everyone should be alert!"
The few of them didn't really care about these things with Ye Yunfeng, but just made a few jokes.
"Oh, by the way, Afeng, do you still have the golden wound medicine that your family sent last time? Some time ago, when Lao Zhao was out of the city on patrol, he was ambushed and his leg was broken. He managed to save his life with great difficulty, but it's been a long time and the wound hasn't healed yet. Look..."
The person who spoke rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed.
"If not, it's okay! It's nothing more than raising it for a while longer..."
"OK."
Ye Yunfeng simply agreed.
The man was surprised and delighted, "Really?"
Ye Yunfeng nodded. "I didn't go last time, so I didn't know about this. He's almost retired. It would be a pity if he became disabled now. I'll send him the medicine later. Maybe it can save his leg."
"That's great! I really don't know how to thank you... You taught everyone to read, and you even gave away such precious medicine..."
As the man spoke, his eyes turned red.
He has a very good relationship with Lao Zhao, and if he hadn't had no other choice, he would have been too embarrassed to bring this up to Ye Yunfeng.
Ye Yunfeng smiled and waved his hand, his tone was calm and light, but his deep pride could not be concealed.
"What's that? I've said before that my elder sister is an excellent doctor. When she was in my hometown, she saved many lives in the clinic she opened!"
Everyone had heard him talk about how powerful his sister was, and they were all curious.
In the past, they did not believe that there was such a perfect woman in the world and just laughed at him for exaggerating. It was not until later when Ye Yunfeng took out all kinds of magic medicines that they finally believed that the elder sister in his family was really extraordinary!
Ye Yunfeng looked into the distance and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I think Lao Zhao's family is waiting for him to go back. It won't be too late to leave after he recovers... I don't know what Sister and Xiaowu will eat today. It's okay for Third Brother, as they are both picky eaters. I think they will miss him very much if I don't cook for them..."
At the end of his speech, his voice gradually faded away.
The people nearby exchanged glances.
Everyone could see that he missed home. How could a teenager not miss home after being away for so long?
But he just didn't want to go back.
He also said that he wanted to achieve great things and make a name for himself!
I don’t know where he got such great courage and pride that kept him here for so long.
Time passed, and this stop lasted until the evening.
One of them couldn't help stretching his aching muscles. "I guess no one will come to cause trouble today. Well, this is not a good thing: if they don't come, we won't go out and will just stand here all day! We're going to be stiff!"
Another person wrapped his collar tightly around his neck. "Isn't it? It's especially cold at night. It's almost freezing your hands and feet!"
Only Ye Yunfeng stood there like a javelin, with his shoulders and back straight.
The wind is very cold.
Suddenly, his eyes fixed.
“Someone is coming!”
"What?"
Several people looked towards the distance and saw a man riding a horse towards them.
The yellow sand kicked up by the horse's hooves made it almost impossible to see the other person's figures.
They immediately became alert.
"It's already this late, the city gates are almost closed, who else would come?"
There are few people here, and sometimes there may not be anyone coming in or out all day.
So basically, whenever such a situation occurs, it means that foreign enemies are invading.
As they were talking, someone had already touched the quiver.
Ye Yunfeng felt something was a little strange, "Wait a minute, that person seems to have come alone."
Everyone looked carefully and found that there was no one else except that man and horse.
this……
Several people relaxed, "They shouldn't be here to cause trouble."
The man got closer and closer, and finally stopped just in front of the city gate.
One person stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing?"
The man got off his horse and hurried away, "I'm here to deliver a letter!"
This is quite common.
However, Xiacheng is a border town after all, and the entry and exit of people are quite strict. Even if it is just a letter, it will be carefully questioned.
At this moment, the horse behind him suddenly fell to the ground due to exhaustion, foaming at the mouth, twitching a few times, and then gradually became silent.
——I was actually exhausted to death!
"Who is it for?"
Ye Yunfeng frowned.
"Are you in such a hurry?"
This man looks exhausted, as if he hasn't rested for a long time.
What on earth is the letter that is so urgent! ?
The man didn't care about his horse anymore and replied directly, "Ye Yunfeng! He is also a soldier guarding the city here! Do you know him?"
The faces of the people waiting suddenly became strange.
This man said he was looking for Ye Yunfeng, but Ye Yunfeng was clearly standing in front of him! How could he not recognize him?
Usually the people who communicate here are relatives and friends, but this...
Ye Yunfeng also realized that something was wrong, took a step forward, and looked at the man again.
This was a man who looked to be in his twenties, with ordinary features and a thin build. He was sure he had never seen this person before.
"That's me. You said... you had a letter for me?"
The man was stunned. He didn't expect that the cold-faced young man in front of him was the person he was looking for. He was overjoyed.
"You are Ye Yunfeng? Great! I have a letter from your elder sister, saying that she must hand it to you personally!"
As he spoke, he really took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Ye Yunfeng.
Ye Yunfeng was confused.
"What did you say? My sister's letter!?"
Ye Yunfeng almost thought he had heard it wrong.
He had just received a whole box of medicine for food poisoning and letters from his sister a year ago!
It's been less than a month, how come another letter came?
Could it be...something happened at home! ?
Ye Yunfeng's heart immediately hung in the air.
He took the letter immediately.
Just when he was about to open it, the man suddenly held his hand.
"Your sister said that you should read this letter carefully."
Ye Yunfeng's heart skipped a beat.
