When they arrived at the commune, Chu Xun took Li Xiyue into an inconspicuous house, which was obviously the secret base where Chu Xun and his team were carrying out their mission.
A kerosene lamp was lit in the room, and Chen Yu was guarding a seriously injured young soldier.
"Li Zhiqing, you must save Xiaowu."
Xiaowu is the injured soldier, named Wu Aiguo. He looks very young, but he is seriously injured and is only breathing his last breath.
Li Xiyue went to see his injuries. He was covered in blood and had serious internal injuries.
The injury was so serious that it could not be cured with the current medical conditions. It was no wonder that the hospital refused to admit him.
Fortunately, she had some newly developed medicine for internal injuries. Li Xiyue took out the medicine bottle, poured a pill for him to take, and then gave him some anti-inflammatory and antibacterial medicine, and then gave him an acupuncture to stop the bleeding.
After the bleeding stopped, they cleaned his wounds one by one, applied medicine and bandaged them.
After finishing all this, Li Xiyue took his pulse.
The pulse was very weak, but it was slowly recovering. The medicine worked and his life was saved.
Li Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief. "His life is saved, but he is seriously injured and needs to rest well."
Chu Xun and Chen Yu both felt relieved.
They knew that with Li Xiyue around, Xiaowu would be fine.
The three of them left the house, and Chen Yu reported the news he had gathered to Chu Xun, "Deputy Captain, I heard that devil named Yamamoto talking about his sister, the ghost needle, and even Li Zhiqing."
Ghost Gate Needle? Could it be the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles?
Li Xiyue thought to herself, Grandpa knows this medical skill, could this be the reason why the other party is looking for Grandpa?
Chu Xun patted Chen Yu's shoulder and said, "Go and rest first, and leave the rest to me."
He has sent another group of people to secretly follow Yamamoto. After finding his hideout, he will personally go there to destroy it and capture the person.
Chen Yu suffered a minor injury, but it was not serious. After applying medicine, he nodded and turned away.
Chu Xun looked at the puzzled Li Xiyue and explained, "The man who arrested you is a devil named Yamamoto. His target wasn't you, but your grandfather, Comrade Liao Qingshan."
Li Xiyue guessed, "Is he looking for my grandfather because of the Thirteen Ghost Needles?"
Did the devils want the original owner's grandfather's unique skills, so they went to such great lengths to capture the original owner and lure his grandfather out?
A big part of the reason why traditional Chinese medicine was suppressed during this period was because of the secret plots of these devils. They coveted Chinese medicine, so they secretly stirred up trouble and caused unrest in the country so that they could reap the benefits.
How many excellent Chinese medicine practitioners and medical books have been smuggled abroad? This is a loss to the country and the nation.
"Probably, but he's not sure what his real purpose is."
Liao Qingshan is a very good Chinese medicine practitioner with unique skills. It is unknown whether the other party is coveting Liao Qingshan's medical skills or for some other reason.
But no matter what the reason, he would not let the devils succeed.
Li Xiyue thought for a moment and asked, "Has my grandfather been taken away by your military for protection?"
"yes."
The Japanese secretly captured many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. Their next target was Liao Qingshan. Liao Qingshan had once saved my grandfather, so my grandfather asked the police to cooperate with the operation. They captured Liao Qingshan openly, but actually protected him secretly.
Li Xiyue was completely relieved. As long as the original owner's grandfather was safe, she would have nothing to worry about.
"So, when I was in the city, it was your military who protected me secretly?" Li Xiyue asked again.
Chu Xun nodded.
Liao Qingshan was worried about his granddaughter Li Xiyue, and asked his grandfather to protect Li Xiyue's safety. The military also considered that if the Japanese couldn't find Liao Qingshan, they would go after Li Xiyue, so they secretly sent people to protect Li Xiyue.
As expected, the Japanese set their sights on Li Xiyue and tried to capture her several times.
Li Xiyue asked again: "So transferring me to the countryside in Southern Province was also arranged by your military?"
"yes."
There were too many educated youth going to the countryside in Northeast China, and there were many variables. In order to ensure Li Xiyue's safety to the greatest extent, the higher-ups changed her location to here.
It is true.
Everything was pretty much as Li Xiyue had guessed.
No wonder the military went to such great lengths to protect the original owner. It's a pity that the original owner was not captured by the Japanese, but died at the hands of Li Muqing and her brother.
We were on guard against enemy spies and devils, but we couldn't guard against thieves in our own homes.
It is true that man proposes, God disposes.
"So your mission here is to protect me?" Li Xiyue asked again.
Chu Xun nodded.
Protecting Li Xiyue is one of his tasks, and he also has to find out the identity and true purpose of the person behind the scenes.
Li Xiyue smiled and said, "No wonder you are so nice to me."
"Protecting you is my mission, and being good to you is my true feeling." Chu Xun took a step forward and said softly.
Li Xiyue saw that his eyes were getting hotter and hotter, and realized something, "Brother Chu, you..."
"Yes." Chu Xun did not avoid her inquiring gaze. He bravely went up to her, looked into her eyes, and said seriously, "I like you."
Li Xiyue was surprised. She didn't expect him to say it so bluntly.
"I've been deeply attracted to you these days. I'm very sure of my feelings for you, and I don't want you to guess what I'm thinking. I want to tell you my thoughts clearly."
"I know I'm several years older than you and I'm not the most suitable person for you, but I will do my best to be the one who best deserves you."
"I also know that you have plans for your life. I won't ask you to change any of your principles for me. To me, you are yourself first. You can do whatever you want, and I will never restrict your freedom."
At this point, he took a step back, saluted her, and spoke each word with great force, "And I will be loyal to my country and to you for the rest of my life."
Loyal to the country, loyal to her?
What a powerful oath!
Li Xiyue was extremely shocked. Having lived two lives, this was undoubtedly the most touching confession she had ever heard.
She smiled happily, a happiness that came from the bottom of her heart.
Seeing that she didn't refuse but smiled instead, Chu Xun was delighted and asked tentatively, "Comrade Xiyue?"
"Comrade Chu Xun, I do have my plans, but from now on, I can include you in my plans." Li Xiyue said with a smile.
Her principle is to prefer nothing to something less than something good.
Before she meets the right person, she may choose to remain single, but if she does, she will seize the opportunity.
Chu Xun is good-looking, has good martial arts skills, is a good cook, and is also a soldier she trusts. She believes that this time, she will never make the wrong choice of him again!
Chu Xun excitedly walked forward, wanting to reach out and pull her, but he restrained himself, "Do you agree to date me?"
"Of course, you're so outstanding, I have no reason to refuse." Li Xiyue reached out and shook his hand. "Comrade Chu Xun, please give me more guidance in the future."
Chu Xun held her hand tightly, still speaking in a resounding voice, "In this life, I will live up to my country and you!"
