Chapter 0031 Uncomfortable
When he was pushed to the second half, Xiao Rong stopped making any sound.
Did it not hurt anymore? No, it was because he suddenly realized that there were a lot of people around him. His vanity made him shut up instantly, and he refused to speak even if his face turned red.
Xiao Rong smashed his face on the grass and pretended to be dead. …
After Agusega opened up his meridians, he touched his back with his hand in confusion.
Her process is a method of treatment passed down from generation to generation by the Butewu people. Generally speaking, it uses massage to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, refresh the mind, and unblock qi and meridians. It cannot cure serious illnesses, nor does it treat the symptoms of minor illnesses, but it is effective for some chronic diseases, congenital weakness, and distressing sequelae.
After all, the Buteu people used to live deep in the mountains. They were the only people on a mountain and had to do everything by themselves. Gradually, they developed their own civilization, had their own language, and their own medical skills.
Aguseka is one of the best forest *late* organizers. She was very interested in medicine when she was a child. After her sister and brother-in-law died one after another, she became even more obsessed with it and led the whole family to develop in this direction.
When there was a shortage of army doctors during the war, these Buteu people would take over. Even if Agusega had not seen ten thousand patients in her life, she must have seen thousands. That's why she found it so strange. Xiao Rong clearly looked like he had insufficient blood and damaged meridians, so how come he had no response at all after the treatment?
Normally, after being hit by her like this, one's back would feel extremely hot, as if one could fry an egg on it. If there was no such reaction, there were only two possibilities.
First, she hadn't touched anyone in a long time and she made a mistake.
Second, it had nothing to do with her, Xiao Rong was not sick at all.
Agusega was silent for a moment and lowered his eyes.
As expected, she made a mistake.
She also knew that she had great strength and most people from the Central Plains could not bear it. It was exhausting enough to do it once, and if she did it again, this delicate and tender child might cry on the spot. So, Agusega stood up silently and decided to do it again to Xiao Rongtong another day.
She did not mention this horrible thing, but said to Qu Yunmie beside her: "Let him go."
As soon as Qu Yunmie's hand left Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong somersaulted and climbed up from the ground.
He stood there with a red face, his body covered with grass leaves, and even a green grass stalk had been inserted into his hair at some point.
Xiao Rong clenched his hands, his chest heaving. Qu Yunmie wanted to pick the grass stalks for him, but just as he stretched out his hand, Xiao Rong suddenly looked at him, startling him so much that he immediately stopped moving. He just raised his arms stupidly, not daring to move.
If looks could kill, Qu Yunmie would have been the one to wash the pot by now. …
In his previous life and this life, Xiao Rong had never encountered such an embarrassing situation. He was unable to speak and no longer cared about hierarchy. His hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists. He was shaking with anger and he wished he could bite Qu Yunmie to death on the spot.
He was trying his best to keep calm and didn't notice that everyone around him was staring at him blankly. When he realized that he was still being laughed at, Xiao Rong's expression froze and he turned and left.
Seeing this, Gao Xunzhi immediately followed, but Qu Yunmie didn't have the courage, so he just stood there silently.
Agusejia followed Xiao Rong with her eyes until he disappeared into the crowd. Then she turned around and said to Qu Yunmie, "This young master is very imposing."
Qu Yunmie: “…”
He heaved a sigh of relief. That was great. Even Luo Wu said so. He thought he was the only one who thought Xiao Rong could be scary sometimes.
Although he thought so in his heart, he couldn't show it on his face. He said casually, "That's it."
Agusega: "..." Stupid bird.
The more beautiful a person is, the more they care about their image. That’s why there is a saying that goes “beauty fades with age, heroes come to the end of their lives.” The two can be put together, which shows how much psychological impact losing beauty has on a beautiful woman.
Although Xiao Rong has not lost his beauty, he has completely lost his image today.
In front of everyone, he was pressed to the ground like a fish, and let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered... Xiao Rong smashed his head down again, hitting it on the chicken feather pillow, thinking that he might as well suffocate himself.
When Gao Xunzhi came up, he saw such an autistic Xiao Rong. He was a little confused at first and didn't understand what he was doing. Later, after a little thought, he figured it out. Qu Yunmie was a very easy person to understand, and Xiao Rong was not mysterious. Although he was well-read and knew everything in the world, he was about the same as Qu Yunmie in terms of personality.
In Gao Xunzhi's eyes, these two people are both pure and sincere.
Gao Xunzhi pursed his lips and forced himself to smile silently for a while before sitting next to Xiao Rong.
Xiao Rong heard the noise, but still didn't want to get up. Gao Xunzhi didn't force him, but brewed for a moment before speaking softly: "I met the Zhenbei Army in the second year of Yushun. I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Ah Rong. At first, I came to the Yanmen Pass area as a criminal exiled to Liaoxi."
Xiao Rong still didn't move, but he opened his eyes and listened to Gao Xunzhi's words in confusion.
Gao Xunzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling the past: "I was born in a poor family. My grandfather fought hard in the army and made a name for himself, so he brought the rest of us into the poor family. My father was bewitched and participated in the rebellion of many princes in the fifth year of Taining. After the court changed, all those who participated in the rebellion were beheaded, and the rest of the family were exiled."
At this point, Gao Xunzhi realized that he had strayed from the topic. He smiled awkwardly, "It's all in the past. Blessings come with adversities. I'm very satisfied with the twenty years I've spent in the Zhenbei Army. I participated in the National Defense War, killed the Hu people with my own hands, and watched the King of Zhenbei grow from such a small child to the man he is today. This is an experience that no one else will have."
Xiao Rong closed his eyes dejectedly. He didn't want to hear others praising Qu Yunmie.
Gao Xunzhi looked at him and said, "Do you know who just gave you the pulse? That was the king's Luowu. Oh, Luowu means aunt in the Butewu tribe, and it also means aunt and mother. The Butewu tribe is small, and they usually live together as a large family to raise children. Everyone plays the role of a parent, so parents has become a general term."
"Arong should not know this, because the king will not tell you. Although life is better now, the king suffered too much in the past because of his foreign blood. He will not easily mention his mother's family to others. The last time he went to ask for salt woman ginseng for you, I was dumbfounded. Today, because he was worried about your health, he actually asked his Luowu to treat you in public. If there was no one who could replace the king, I would have thought that person was not the king."
Xiao Rong suddenly turned over and sat up, looking unmoved: "What is the purpose of the Prime Minister saying this?"
Gao Xunzhi didn't expect Xiao Rong to suddenly get up. He was so scared that he almost forgot the rest of the words. He slightly widened his eyes, swallowed, and then said the rest of the words: "What I mean is that since you, A Rong, came, the king has changed every day. I know A Rong is anxious, but I also hope that A Rong can give the king some time. In the past ten years, he has protected everyone with the principle of revenge and doing everything by himself. If he hadn't been firm enough, the Zhenbei Army would have been disintegrated countless times. This set of rules of conduct that the king has figured out through trial and error cannot be changed in a day or two. A Rong needs to be patient."
Xiao Rong: “…”
He straightened his lips and looked at Gao Xunzhi without saying a word. Gao Xunzhi smiled because he also discovered that although Xiao Rong was similar to Qu Yunmie in some ways, he and Qu Yunmie were opposite in some ways. If Qu Yunmie didn't speak, it meant something was going to happen, but for Xiao Rong, not speaking meant that he was really listening.
Compared with Qu Yunmie, Xiao Rong was really easy to persuade. Gao Xunzhi was so happy that he added another sentence in an attempt to consolidate the results of his persuasion.
