Chapter 131 Treating Wounds
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and there is no sign of stopping.

Three miles outside Peifeng South City, thousands of torches were burning high, reflecting the dark sky and earth red.

At the front of the crowd stood a big horse. The general on the horse looked young, in his twenties, looking angrily and powerlessly at the huge mud pit in front of him.

Because it was a mud pit, the rainwater on all sides desperately gurgled down thousands of ravines, and in less than half a day, a puddle was formed, which was about to submerge thousands of corpses in this mud pit.

And these corpses should have been burned and burned thoroughly.

"General, let's go back." The guard on the side opened his mouth and said.

Zhao Xi's eyes were serious, and he tightened the rein in his hand, ignoring it.

"General..." the guard called out again.

At this moment, a thunderclap resounded in the sky, opening up the sky.

The guard was frightened and shrank his hand holding the umbrella.

Zhao Xuan raised his head and looked at the dark night sky above the mountains ahead, cursing in his heart, pulled the rein, turned his head and shouted: "Let's go!"

The guard finally breathed a sigh of relief, and also rode back.

But after turning around, I felt very uneasy in my heart, and couldn't help looking back at the mud pit by the light of the fire.

It coincided with another flash of lightning, illuminating the faces of the floating corpses in the pit. Under the white and bright purple lightning, they were hideous and frightening, piled up in pieces, making even the guards who had experienced fierce battles feel numb in their scalps.

Following the lightning, came the rumble of thunder.

Konoe gritted his teeth, feeling uneasy, indescribably powerless and desolate.

As soon as he heard that Zhao Yuan was back, the guard led several soldiers to look for him.

Zhao Xi's face was ugly, and he stopped on the steps with a sullen face, and looked back at them: "What's the matter?"

"I just received a report that Lin Yao's rebel army will launch another attack in the future. According to our current strength, this time it is really difficult to defend. The city is running out of food and supplies, and the military supplies are running out. The people in the city are in panic. , Several families have already gone crazy. As soon as the general led his troops away this morning, six lunatics went to the street to set fire and killed two women," the guard said in a deep voice, "General, if this continues, we... ..."

"We won't attack in the future." Zhao Yuan interrupted him, "With the torrential rain tonight, the roads won't pass through in the next few days, so why attack? I will find a way to supply food, grass and military supplies. You can stabilize people's hearts. These things can't be done. Well, what do you want?"

The guard bowed his head: "The last general is not calm enough."

"After dawn tomorrow morning, arrange 500 people to dig another hole next to the mud pit you dug today," Zhao Xi said again, "You must go as soon as possible, preferably as soon as the sun rises."

"Dig a hole next to a mud pit?" The guard was puzzled, "Why?"

"If you want to do it, you can do it." Zhao Yu said coldly, turned around and stepped up the Leilei steps, and walked up.

There are nine stone piers made of six big stones standing up and down the steps in a disorderly manner.

On each of the nine stone piers there is a small stone pavilion, with a brazier in the middle of the pavilion for lighting.

Zhao Xi's figure disappeared on the steps.

The guard stood annoyed and looked at the place where he left, unable to lift himself up.

Early in the morning of the second day, the heavy rain stopped for a while.

Just after dawn, more than 500 soldiers left the city and walked towards yesterday's mud pit.

Zhao Yuan, who didn't sleep well all night, put on a coat and came out, watching them set off from afar, the wrinkles between his brows getting deeper and deeper.

When the last figure was gone, he raised his head to look at the heavy sky.

Last night, they were furious and angry, because the heavy rain made their whole day's effort yesterday come to naught, but at the same time, it also blocked Lin Yao's attack.

The current situation in Peifeng City may not be able to hold even two waves.

He couldn't even tell whether it was good or bad for the heavy rain.

But he was still desperate in his heart, although he was the one who was least qualified to be desperate.

………………

The heavy rain was intermittent, it stopped and stopped, and it stopped and rained again.

For three consecutive days, the sky and the earth became a vast ocean, and a large number of trees were washed down, making the mountain road more and more difficult.

After crossing another mountain, the sky at noon was gloomy and gloomy, and it was about to torrential again.

Xia Zhaoyi left Qingyun for Old Tong to watch, and she and Zhi Changle went to explore the way ahead.When he came back half an hour later, Zhi Changle had an ugly expression on his face. As soon as he grabbed Lao Tong's arm, he almost fell to his knees and fell to the ground.

Old Tong hurriedly supported him: "What's the matter?"

Zhi Changle opened his lips, unable to speak, simply shook his head, not wanting to say anything.

"He's fine," Xia Zhaoyi came over to lead Qingyun, and said, "Let's go first, we found a place to stay ahead, and just met an injured person, we'll put him there first."

Old Tong nodded, looked at Zhi Changle worriedly, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Zhi Changle was completely speechless, and took a sip from his water bottle, still shaking his head.

Old Tong looked at Xia Zhaoyi again, wanting to ask what's wrong.

Xia Zhaoyi's expression was not very good-looking, but he was still calm for the most part, and he was already walking forward while holding Qingyun.

"You are a big man, you are not as good as a little girl." Old Tong cursed and followed.

The front foothold was a ruined temple. The man rescued by Xia Zhaoyi and Zhi Changle was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was seriously injured. There were many claw marks and bite marks on his body. He was attacked by ferocious beasts.

As before, Lao Tong and Zhi Changle were responsible for starting the fire and preventing leaks, while Xia Zhaoyi went to set up a pot to boil water.

When the water boiled, Xia Zhaoyi came out and shouted, "Old Tong, come help me."

"Come on!" Old Tong replied, coming down from the roof.

Xia Zhaoyi pointed to the warm water in the house: "Wash your hands."

Old Tong went to wash it obediently, and wiped it with a clean handkerchief: "A Li, what are you going to do?"

"Tear off his clothes." Xia Zhaoyi looked at the man on the ground and said, "Be careful, his wound festers and his clothes stick to his flesh, it will hurt very much."

"Success, I will be careful!" Old Tong walked over.

The wounded had a high fever, and Xia Zhaoyi put a wet veil on his forehead.

After Lao Tong tore off his clothes, Xia Zhaoyi said: "Old Tong, you avoid it first."

"Why?" Old Tong subconsciously asked.

"Look at this." Xia Zhaoyi pointed at the injured man's chest.

The two claw marks on his chest were very deep, and the skin on the side was festered, with many pustules. If he moved further to the right, his life would definitely be lost.

"I'm going to clean these up later, you might feel uncomfortable." Xia Zhaoyi said, "I'm going to sew up his wound."

"Sew, sew it up?" Old Tong opened his eyes wide, "What do you use? Needlework?"

"Yes," Xia Zhaoyi nodded, "You should avoid it first."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and began to treat the wound.

Old Tong didn't leave, he stared blankly at Xia Zhaoyi's hand cleaning the wounded man with his eyes open.

Very flexible, skilled, and even pleasing to the eye.

When he saw Xia Zhaoyi tear open the several-inch-deep wound and pick out the dirty weeds, he frowned, a burst of goosebumps surged up wildly, and he stood up with numbness on his scalp: "Ah Li, I'll go I'm done working, call me again if you need anything..."
