Yan Ruyu didn't want Huo Changhe to accompany her.

It's dark now, and the terrain is unfamiliar. She can't find any herbs anywhere. This is just an excuse to avoid other people and just find some herbs in the space.

"No," Yan Ruyu accepted the torch and refused, "Please help me take care of mother and Heng'er."

"There's Yin over there... Yintuo, he's fine."

"Then you go and count the injured people. You can't follow them all the way in vain. You have to make some contribution."

Yan Ruyu didn't allow him to say any more, turned around and left quickly.

Huo Changhe looked at her back and frowned slightly.

Many people were injured, some were injured by stones, and some were sprained and trampled when they were frightened and ran away.

When Huo Changhe passed by Huo Changxu and Ruan Xianzao, he happened to hear Ruan Xianzao acting coquettishly again.

"Second cousin, it hurts me so much..."

Huo Changhe rolled his eyes silently: Why don't I hurt you to death?

I originally wanted to see Huo Changxu's condition, but I don't want to see it now. I really think it would be better to smash the child's head, and maybe it will grow back to normal by then.

The third lady's foot was also twisted. Fortunately, no bones were injured, but it still hurt when she walked. Huo Yunran almost cried as he supported her.

Yan Ruyu went to a patch of grass, picked some grass at random, and took out some herbs from the space. These were taken from the palace and hung to dry in a yard. There were many varieties and good quality.

Didn't expect it to be used so quickly.

After taking the herbs and walking back, Meng Mengliang and the others had already lit torches. Everyone also lit the fire, which made the light much brighter.

The rocks stopped rolling down, and Meng Mengliang led people in to rescue people.

Unfortunately, two were killed on the spot, and another had his arm broken.

"Master Yan?" Meng Mengliang shouted a few times, thinking that this guy wouldn't be beaten to death, right?

"I...I'm here."

Meng Mengliang hurriedly looked for the sound and looked for it. The torch illuminated it and saw Yan Song huddled in a corner. The stone above fell and got stuck.

He was fine, but Su'er, who was dragged over to use as a human shield in his desperation, was hit with a bloody head. Her head was tilted at a weird angle, and it looked like her neck bones were broken.

died.

Several people worked together to remove the stone, and Su'er's body fell softly and silently.

Yan Song was still in shock, kicked him away, and let out a sigh of relief: "Why are you still standing there? Help me out quickly."

Meng Mengliang felt a chill in her heart and looked down at the corpse on the ground. Yan Song urged: "Ignore her. Don't stay in a dangerous place for a long time."

Meng Mengliang asked someone to help Yan Song out. He sighed secretly, dragged Su'er's body and that of the other two officials out, found a place to bury them, and marked them.

Forget Su'er's, they have no relatives or acquaintances, but these two officers are different. They have to explain to their families after returning to Beijing.

Meng Mengliang felt a little heavy. She looked up and saw Yan Ruyu and the eldest lady applying medicine to the injured.

Yan Ruyu didn't say anything, she just handled the medicinal materials and left the rest to the eldest lady.

Those who had complained about the eldest lady a few days ago were silent now, and their relationships and attitudes had eased.

When it was Ruan Xianzao's turn, Yan Ruyu passed by.

Huo Changxu frowned: "What do you mean? At this time, shouldn't we consider the overall situation?"

"How does she figure in the overall situation?" Yan Ruyu didn't even raise her head, "It's just the same as Su'er. Su'er is in the grave now. Go and ask, does she figure in the overall situation?"

"you……"

Ruan Xianzao was sad and cried: "Second cousin, stop talking, it doesn't matter to me, just bear with it and it will be fine."

"Just bear with it," Yan Ruyu didn't even look back.

As if he didn't notice it, several medicinal plants fell down.

Huo Changxu went over to pick it up, and neither of them said a word, imitating the others and mashing the medicinal materials.

It's just that the medicine smells a bit unpleasant, I can't tell what it tastes like, and the juice is still dark.

Yin Ding was holding a herb and was in a daze. Huo Changhe came over and called him: "What are you doing? Why are you dazed?"

"Master," Yin Ding was nervous, looking around and seeing no one paying attention, he whispered, "There's something wrong with this herb..."

Huo Changhe was startled: "What? Do you also know medical skills?"

"No, I don't know medical skills, but I have a good memory, as you know," Yin Ding held the herb and handed it to him, "This herb, if I remember correctly, belongs to Dr. Cao."

Huo Changhe took the herb and turned it around on his fingertips. It was more than an inch long, dark green, with dark red undersides and a faint medicinal fragrance.

He doesn't understand medicine, but Dr. Cao has been with him for so long and can tell the quality of medicine from bad.

There is no doubt that this plant is of good quality, but it would be too absurd to say that it belongs to Dr. Cao.

"Military Doctor Cao is still in the village, a hundred miles away. Did he ask the carrier pigeon to deliver the medicine?"

As soon as Yin Ding heard his tone, he knew that he didn't believe it. He scratched his chin, frowned and thought: "My subordinate has really seen this medicinal material in the palace, in the courtyard of Dr. Cao."

Huo Changhe almost laughed angrily: "Cao Jun's doctor is in the village, this medicine comes from the palace, your brain was smashed by a stone?"

Yin Ding pursed his lips, and after thinking about it, he felt that it didn't make sense, so he had no choice but to say no more.

"Okay, let's go defend. The rocks are rolling down strangely, so be careful."

"Yes, my subordinates will go now."

Yin Ding turned around and left. Huo Changhe held the medicinal plant and looked deeply: From the palace? Appearing here again, things were lost one after another along the way, and the Chen family...

Moving mountains and seas, these four words appeared in his mind again.

He turned his head and looked at Yan Ruyu. She was preparing food for Huo Changheng. The firelight reflected her face, which was calm and beautiful.

She doesn't believe in ghosts and gods.

But Huo Changhe felt that she was as beautiful as a fairy.

She may seem cold and ruthless, but in fact there is something softer than anyone else in her heart.

While looking inquiringly, Yan Ruyu seemed to notice something, and Huo Changhe looked away.

It was dark in the distance, and the mountain road was like a slightly opened mouth. Suddenly, a few lights appeared in a trance.

Huo Changhe stared and saw that it was not an illusion, there was real light.

He subconsciously touched the handle of the knife and walked to Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu also turned around and looked at where the light came from.

The light gradually came closer, showing several people holding torches.

Meng Mengliang shouted loudly: "Who is it? Stop!"

His voice passed through the mountain road and floated far away. The light moved slower but did not stop.

"Don't come here! There are rolling rocks here, it's dangerous." Meng Mengliang continued to shout.

The people over there responded: "We heard it, but we came here because we were afraid that someone would be injured by the boulder. Are you okay?"

Yan Ruyu stood up slowly, straightened her back, and looked at the mountain road with squinted eyes.

"Who are you?" Meng Mengliang shouted.

Those people didn't answer immediately. They walked through the mountain road and when they approached the crossing, their figures appeared.

"Everyone is scared," the visitor raised his palms and bowed slightly, "We are Taoist priests from the Taoist temple in front of us. We heard the sound of rolling stones and came to check. If anyone is injured, please go to the Taoist temple for treatment!"

Meng Mengliang looked at them. Several of them were wearing Taoist robes and Taoist gauze hats. They were indeed dressed as Taoist priests.

The few people behind them all held torches in their hands to illuminate their faces, and they didn't look like people with malicious intentions.

"This mountain road is indeed dangerous. It has rolled over boulders twice this year alone. We originally thought that we would use the money we saved for incense to repair it in late autumn, but unexpectedly... something like this happened again today."

"Dear donors, are there any injured? We have accommodations, meals and medicines in the Taoist temple. Please move on!"

Every word is sincere and extremely sincere.

Yan Ruyu felt that these people had come by chance.
