Chapter 51
Today, Ren Ning is busy.

A sudden order came in from outside, saying that Mrs. Zhang had come to look for him.

"Miss Zhang?" Ren Ning was so busy that he couldn't react for a while, "Why, is she going back home too?"

Some soldiers died in the battle, leaving widows like Mrs. Zhang or some orphans and widows.

If they intend to leave the fortress and return to their hometown to settle down, they will usually take advantage of the quadrennial send-off to return home and go back with the army.

Those girls who grew up near the fortress would take this opportunity to return to their hometown together if they didn't find someone they liked near the fortress, or seek refuge with relatives or seek marriage.

Ren Ning has been busy with these tasks these days.

Soon he reacted.

Mrs. Zhang has no relatives in her hometown, and she is still a military doctor in the fortress, so it is impossible for her to leave.

Wander out of the legion station.

At the gate of the station, Mrs. Zhang didn't bring any apprentices, but beside her was a black dog with a big grin looking around.

"Miss Zhang, long time no see." Ren Ning cupped his hands with a chuckle.

Starfall is an independent legion equipped with its own military doctor.Ren Ning hadn't seen the military doctors in fortresses like Mrs. Zhang for a long time since he transferred to the Starfall Corps.

"No frostbite?" Mrs. Zhang looked him up and down.

It was snowing heavily in the twelfth lunar month of winter, but the Starfall Legion kept forcing its soldiers to roll in the snow with their upper bodies naked, and it took a long time to roll.The news had already spread throughout the fortress.

"No!" Ren Ning patted his chest haha, "I have a strong body, and I grew up in the imperial capital since I was a child. Xiaoxue doesn't get in the way at all."

"Yes," he looked around, "where's your little apprentice?"

"I was injured." Mrs. Zhang still cherishes words like gold.

Ren Ning was stunned, and his eyes fell thoughtfully on the black dog at Mrs. Zhang's feet.

"Come with me." Mrs. Zhang got on her horse and left without explaining.

Ren Ning had no choice but to confess, and summoned Zhuifeng to follow.

It's quite a distance from the Xingluo Army's garrison to Mrs. Zhang's residence, but it doesn't take much effort to travel with a horse.

The two drove in silence one after the other, until they entered Mrs. Zhang's residence, Ren Ning dismounted and said, "Another spies attacked you again?"

Mrs. Zhang nodded, "He was hit by an arrow in the back. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured, and the arrow is not poisonous. Just lie down for a while and he will be fine."

Fuck!
Ren Ning cursed.

He looked around, "I'll help you see the layout around the house."

Turning around carefully, Ren Ning soon realized that he was a bit unnecessary.

The fortress would like to wrap up the military doctors heavily.

Various measures have been set up around Mrs. Zhang's residence.Unless the spies can fly into the sky or have a strong bow like Ren Ning's with a long range in their hands, they won't be able to touch her.

He came back with a haha, and patted the black dog, "The surroundings are well arranged. I didn't find any mistakes. Just be careful when you go out."

Mrs. Zhang nodded, apparently not paying attention.

She led Ren Ning to the northwest corner of the yard, pointing to the sickly life-seeking weeds on the ground, "Can you grow herbs?"

Ren Ning wiped his sweat.

Killing and setting fire to find him is definitely right, but he doesn't know anything about the delicate work of planting flowers and grass.

"No." Ren Ning comforted: "It's spring now, and the weather is about to warm up. Why don't you wait any longer, maybe this life-seeker will recover like other plants after a while."

"I hope so." Mrs. Zhang squatted down.

"You brought back six herbal medicines, and I took two for testing. After adding some auxiliary medicines and processing them, the healing effect is amazing, far better than the golden sore medicine provided by the court."

Ren Ning suddenly realized.

When he received the reward for this herbal medicine mission before, it was so rich that he once wondered if the fortress had miscalculated.

Looking at it now, it turned out to be the case.

"Do you want me to move some life-seekers back to try planting?" Ren Ning asked.

When he went out to search for medicine last time, he had already made signs around the place where he found it.

As long as you explain the location, you can send some scouts out to find the herbs.There is no need for him to go out on purpose.

"It's not urgent." Mrs. Zhang shook her head, "I want to use this medicine to set up a trap."

"Set up a bureau?" Ren Ning's face was strange, and he quickly realized it.

Once such a good medicine is spread, the spies hiding in the fortress will definitely be ready to move, so there is no need to say more.

only……

"Shouldn't it be the job of guarding the General's Mansion to set up a trap to catch spies?" Ren Ning said.

Mrs. Zhang in front of me is just a military doctor who treats diseases and saves lives, so don't bother with that.Thankless.

"The news came from the general's mansion, it's too deliberate." A cold light flashed in Mrs. Zhang's eyes, and she rarely showed anger, "And they hurt my apprentice."

Master Master, one day a teacher, a lifetime a father.

She has no children, and she is counting on her little apprentice to take care of her in the future.

Ren Ning is a smart person, and he immediately understood what Mrs. Zhang meant.

He laughed and said, "So you want to use me to catch the spies out?"

For the time being, only Ren Ning knows where these life-seeking plants grow.

Even if the spies got the prescription, they would be useless if they could not get the raw materials. Sooner or later, they would get their ideas on him.

"No problem?" Mrs. Zhang asked back.

Ren Ning shook his head hahaha, "Of course it's no problem. But remember to report the military merits for me when it's done."

Madam Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

It was obvious that Ren Ning was joking about reporting military merits, which meant that he was not angry.

After staying for another quarter of an hour, Ren Ning rode away on Chasing Feng with a smile on his face.

When passing by Gu Datou's Eighth Cavalry Battalion, a soldier recognized him and ran over to stuff a few dates.

"Brother Ren, long time no see."

"Why are you so happy, did you find gold?"

Ren Ning tasted the dates hahaha, got off the horse and chatted with the little soldier, then smiled triumphantly: "Although I didn't find gold, it's almost as good as I did."

He lowered his voice, "The last time I went out, I found a herbal medicine that can heal wounds. Mrs. Zhang tried it, and the effect..."

Hey!

"Anyway, I'm just waiting for the reward from General Huo. I guess it won't be a problem to go back to my hometown to buy a big manor and raise a lot of servants."

cut!
"So powerful? The general guarding the fortress came out to give you a reward!" Xiao Bing didn't believe it at all, so he cut him off, "Wait until the next life."

"Don't believe me?" Ren Ning blushed, "I'll get the reward in two days, and I'll go to Huotouying to buy a few sheep and teeth for the brothers in the eighth battalion. This should be all right."

The two chatted a few more words before Ren Ning left.

This conversation did not spread in the fortress, only those who rode the Eighth Battalion knew about it.Except for Gu Datou who firmly believed in Ren Ning, everyone else was dubious.

After another half a month, when Ren Ning really bought twenty roast sheep from Huotouying, and sent ten of them to Qibaying, the news finally broke.

There are not many ten sheep, but Gu Datou spreads it around like he has won some big prize.Even on the competition stage, he was bragging to Ren Ning.

Gu Datou, who is burly and powerful, is a frequent visitor to the martial arts arena, especially when he only competes on the stage for horse food, such a strange person is rare.

Therefore, although many soldiers in the fortress have never met Gu Datou, they have heard of his name and deeds.

Gu Datou boasted, whether you believe it or not, the news that Ren Ning found a good medicine for wounds and won a big prize from the fortress quickly spread.
