across mountains and seas

After rushing on the road for several days, when we stepped into the suburbs of the east side of the city, it happened to be raining.

The raindrops hit the hood, making a "clack" sound, mixed with the sound of the wheels of the carriage, incessantly.

Nine days ago, Jing Lan wrote a letter and sent it to Donglin City. Jing Yuan and the others have cleared the blocked official roads, tidied up the Donglin City government offices, and are ready to welcome the eldest princess into the city.

With the fall of Lidu, only the Donglin City in Kyushu can be temporarily used as the capital, so that Chu Xi can take a breather and plan again to clean up the dilapidated Daliang Mountains and Rivers.Although Chu Xi was already the last member of Daliang's royal family, she was a daughter's family after all. If she wanted to ascend the throne and proclaim herself emperor, she would have to spend some effort.

What made Chu Xi even more worried were Cui Shiniang and Xue Qingxian, one of whom was transformed into a dead body, and the other was deaf in both ears after being acupointed.During these days, even if the three of them shared the same car, Chu Xi was often unable to speak.To whom?One does not wake up, one does not hear.

Most of the time, Chu Xi could only lift the curtain of the car, look at the scenery along the way, and sigh occasionally.She even hoped that her eyes could recover more slowly, and maybe it wouldn't be so sad to see the two of them blurred.It's a pity that God often doesn't follow people's wishes. Her eyes are already healed, and her sweetheart has returned, but it's difficult to go the same way with her.

I only hope that Shen Jiangli, who is a ghost doctor, can find a way to heal them.

This is Chu Xi's greatest wish, and also the last hope of Liu Xi and Jing Lan.

Liu Xi and Jing Lan have searched for opportunities to double cultivate several times on the road, but they did not expect that it would be so difficult to recover their inner breath.After several times of double cultivation, only [-]% of the absorbed inner energy has been recovered. Thinking of returning to the initial full inner energy, I am afraid that I will have to retreat and double cultivation for a month and a half.

Even so, Liu Xi and Jing Lan also tried to run the "Fish and Dragon Dance Jue" with [-]% of their internal energy, intending to force out the poison of those blood beads in Cui Shiniang's body.However, once the poison of the blood bead enters the body, it will fuse with the blood, and what is forced out is both poison and blood.When the blood is exhausted, the poison will disperse, but Cui Shiniang is a living person, how can a person live without blood?

The poison of this blood bead is so dangerous, Liu Xi and Jing Lan couldn't help but feel afraid.At the prison dragon stream, they also ate two drops of blood juice. I don't know if it was because they ate too little, or because they had the body protection of "Fish and Dragon Dance" in their bodies, so they didn't become Cui Shiniang. Such a half-human half-corpse.

Only Yunji in the world knows the answer.

Half an hour later, the eldest princess' chariot and horse arrived at Donglin City.

Jing Lan jumped out of the carriage first, opened the umbrella and lifted the curtain, and helped Liu Xi, who was covered in a face scarf, out of the carriage.She raised her eyes to look under the city gate, her eyes brightened, "Grandpa?!"

Jin Shoujiang was wearing armor, his beard and hair were all white. When he looked at Jing Lan, a smile flashed in his eyes. He approached Chu Xi's carriage and said respectfully, "Minister Jin Shoujiang, respect Your Majesty."

What he said was not His Highness, but His Majesty, and the implication was that everyone could understand.

Chu Xi was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Jin Shoujiang to come to Donglin, and she didn't expect Jin Shoujiang to speak so clearly in front of everyone - he wanted to make the eldest princess the new king!

With a century-old reputation and illustrious military exploits, a man like him would be the first to kneel down to greet him. What about the other ministers?

Jing Lan smiled knowingly, handed the paper umbrella to Liu Xi, walked quickly to Jin Shoujiang's side, and also knelt respectfully to greet Chu Xi, "I welcome your majesty back to the city."

The Dongjing family and the Xishan Liu family can rule the world with their assistance.

This rumor is known to everyone in the Jianghu. Now that Jin Shoujiang knelt down, so did the little governor of the Dongjing clan. These two important figures surrendered to the eldest princess. Daliang has really changed today.

"Welcome, Your Majesty returns to the city." The people and soldiers in front of the city gate knelt down and shouted, "Long live, long live, long live."

Chu Xi was grateful, her eyes were slightly hot, but she lifted the curtain of the car calmly, and said these two words lightly with the demeanor of the emperor's family.

"Flat body."

After Chu Xi waited for Jing Lan and Jin Shoujiang to stand up, he said again: "Enter the city, the government will discuss matters." After speaking, Chu Xi put down the curtain of the car.

"promise."

Jin Shoujiang took two steps back, got on his horse, waved his hand, and said solemnly: "Get on the horse!"

Originally moved the capital here in embarrassment all the way, but because of the appearance of Jin Shoujiang, Chu Xi finally regained a bit of the majesty of the royal family.She secretly kept Jin Shoujiang's contribution in her heart, she thought, after the mountains and rivers are all right, she must reward the old general Shoujiang.

Jin Shoujiang was supposed to be guarding Xishen Prefecture, but if he came here rashly, wouldn't he be afraid that foreigners would make trouble with the Wei family?

This doubt has been entangled in Jing Lan's heart, and before the doubt was resolved, another doubt was discovered - only Jin Shoujiang came to greet Chu Xi, neither the third brother nor the fourth brother.

Jing Lan was very disturbed. After following Chu Xi's chariot and horses for more than ten steps, she suddenly felt someone pulling her sleeves.

She turned her head in a hurry, only to see Liu Xi gave her a wink.

"This matter is strange." Liu Xi's eyes were serious, she thought, she should rush to the government office with Jing Lan to have a look.After she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand to hold Jing Lan's right hand, and led her into an alley, taking a shortcut to the government office.

"Captain?!"

When Jing Lan and Liu Xi appeared at the gate of the mansion, the guards of the Jing family on duty recognized Jing Lan and couldn't help being shocked. At this time, the governor should have returned with the eldest princess at the same time.

"Where are the third and fourth brothers?" Jing Lan asked first.

Jing's guard raised his mouth and said with a smile: "The third son left for Haicheng two days ago."

"What's wrong with Haicheng?" Liu Xi asked nervously this time.

Jing's guard waved his hands quickly, "Don't be surprised, Miss Baili, Haicheng is a happy event."

This time it was Jing Lan who was nervous, "Happy event?"

"Two days ago, the third young lady suddenly fainted. After Miss Shen took the pulse, she said that it was the third young lady, which was embarrassing, so..." Jing's guard smiled a little bit, "The third young lady personally sent the third young lady back to Haicheng rested."

Jing Lan and Liu Xi looked at each other and smiled, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

With Jin Lingdang's temperament, if she stayed in Donglin City, she might be busy with Jing Yuan.Besides, the current situation in Donglin City is unstable, Jing Yuan will be worried and distracted if he stays here.

Haicheng is at least a place where you can sleep with peace of mind. With Aunt Hong watching over there, Jin Lingdang will definitely be able to take good care of her body.

"Where's fourth brother?" Jing Lan is only worried about Jing Huan now.

Jing's guard scratched the back of his head, "Looks like he's gone out again."

"Going out again?" Jing Lan felt that there was something wrong with these words.

Jing's guard nodded, "Since the past month, Fourth Young Master has been very mysterious, always going out for half a day before coming back."

"Huh?" Liu Xi felt the most strange thing was Jing Huan.

"Sister, sister!" But before she could ask clearly, she heard that warm and long-lost whisper.

The corners of Liu Xi's lips were slightly raised with a smile, and he looked sideways behind Jing's guard, "Sister!" As soon as the words fell, Shen Jiangli rushed over, hugging Liu Xi tightly with his arms, excited Rela said, "Come back, come!"

Heart, warm and sour.

Liu Xi caressed her back, her voice became extremely soft, "Silly girl."

"Wait, wait!" Shen Jiangli seemed to have thought of something, she let go of Liu Xi, took a step back, felt Liu Xi's pulse, and frowned, "Internal injury?"

Liu Xi nodded, "Fortunately, the lost inner energy can be recovered."

Shen Jiangli contemplated for a moment, and then asked: "External injuries?"

"Don't worry, girl, I don't have any trauma, but..." Liu Xi said, and she and Shen Jiangli looked at Jing Lan in unison, "Ah Lan has."

Shen Jiangli wrinkled his nose, and suddenly grabbed Jing Lan's wrist.

"Sister Shen! My wounds are scabbed over... Ah!" Before Jing Lan finished speaking, Shen Jiangli dragged her all the way to the inner courtyard.

"Look, examine!" Shen Jiangli angrily threw two words at her.

"Xi'er..." Jing Lan looked at Liu Xi who was following behind her as if asking for help.

Liu Xi raised her eyebrows, but didn't respond, instead she raised her voice and laughed: "Sister, give her a good look!"

"Okay, yes!" Shen Jiangli answered simply, as if he had received the imperial edict.

Jing Lan sighed helplessly, she knew that when she came back and let Shen Jiangli know that she was injured again, she would definitely receive several injections or several days of decoction from Shen Jiangli to "clean up".

The three of them came to Jing Lan's room, and Liu Xi who came in last closed the door, and when she turned her head, Jing Lan had already been torn off by Shen Jiangli.

Liu Xi suppressed a smile, and sat down on the couch in a leisurely manner, watching Shen Jiangli quickly peel off Jing Lan's outer clothes.

Jing Lan was shy and anxious, and said in a panic, "Sister Shen, don't be so impatient!" As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that the words were not good, and instantly her ears were red.

Shen Jiangli's movements froze, and after he realized it, he couldn't help punching Jing Lan, "Huh, say it!"

"It should be hit." Liu Xi had a smirk on his lips, "My sister is a doctor, and she won't treat you lightly."

"That's not what I meant." Jing Lan felt that she couldn't explain clearly.

Shen Jiangli pointed to the stool next to him, "Sit down." After speaking, he took off the needle pouch on his waist and spread it flat on the table.

Jing Lan silently untied the belt of her underwear, and took off the left underwear, revealing her injured left shoulder wrapped in gauze.

Shen Jiangli's nose moved slightly, his expression froze, and he moved up to Jing Lan's wound and sniffed.

Although she didn't speak, Liu Xi noticed something unusual, she couldn't sit still, so she walked forward quickly and asked in a low voice: "Is it the wrong medicine?"

Shen Jiangli hesitated to speak, finally swallowed what he wanted to say, and untied the gauze.

The wound has indeed scabbed over, and there is still a lot of powder on it, other than that, there is nothing special about it.

Shen Jiangli took out the silver needle, pricked Jing Lan's shoulder, and asked earnestly, "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Jing Lan replied truthfully.

Shen Jiangli stabbed the silver needle down again, and the silver needle penetrated two thirds, "Does it hurt?"

Jing Lan frowned slightly, "It hurts."

"Much, does it hurt?" Shen Jiangli asked again.

Jing Lan always felt something was wrong, "Sister Shen, what's wrong?"

Shen Jiangli shook his head, "Yes, it hurts." Looking at Liu Xi, "Yes, yes." The last two words were not consolation, but after the diagnosis, Shen Jiangli had the ability to heal Jing Lan.

Liu Xi always felt uneasy, "Alan's injury...what's wrong?"

Shen Jiangli pulled out the silver needle, his nostrils moved slightly, following the strange faint breath, he bent down and lifted Jing Lan's calf, and put it on another stool.

"Corpse, smell." Shen Jiangli finally said these two words.

Liu Xi's face turned pale in an instant, and she looked at Jing Lan in a panic.

Jing Lan was shocked and didn't know what to ask first.

Shen Jiangli picked up Jing Lan's trouser legs, saw the scars left by the thorns, similarly pierced the flesh with a silver needle, and asked Jing Lan if it hurt?

The shadow of blood beads suddenly rose in her heart, Jing Lan squirmed her lips, and a series of complex emotions flashed in her eyes.

If she is really half human and half dead, how can she give Liu Xi a shelter from the wind and rain?I'm afraid most of the vows she made to Liu Xi will be broken...

Knowing that Jing Lan would think about this, Liu Xi quietly reached out and took Jing Lan's hand.

There are some words that Jing Lan can understand without opening her mouth, no matter what happens to Jing Lan in the future, she will hold her hand.

"Sister?" Liu Xi asked Shen Jiangli.

"Man, Zhu..." Shen Jiangli tilted her head and thought for a while, then she opened her mouth slowly, "Sha, Hua..."

After hearing these four words, Liu Xi suddenly thought of those snow-colored Manzhu Shahua on Yin Zhiyuan's body.

"Blood, soil." Shen Jiangli said two more words, she remembered seeing this kind of strange flower in the ghost doctor's book.Legend has it that this kind of snow-colored manjusawa takes human blood as soil, and if a wound comes into contact with pollen, it will parasitize in the body.

Shen Jiangli spoke very slowly, but Liu Xi and Jing Lan were startled.

The author has something to say: Let me explain here~ The two children who were waiting for Xi'er to go back in front of the official road in the eastern suburbs left first. When the Zhulou was engaged in business, they would obediently run along the official road first, and would follow the refugees to Donglin City.We will definitely meet again later, I will explain this.

Xiao Wu was injured and entered the Lost City of Black Li, so she was the only one infected with this pollen.This is also why Yun Ji slapped Ye Tianxin in the first place, blaming Ye Tianxin for hurting Xiao Wu?

The task of this young general is arduous~ It depends on how she rejuvenates~
