In the upper room, Zi Yan, who had changed into women's clothing, wrung out the steaming sweat towel, and wiped the old woman's face carefully, "Master, why is my mother-in-law covered in tattoos all over her body? Is she a prisoner?"

Li Ru'an was fiddling with the chessboard on the table. She was a little bit like Xiaotuanzi, so she answered casually, "In Mocang, there is a kind of person who has tattooed on his body since he was a child, witch doctor."

"Witch doctor?!"

Zi Yan whispered in surprise, it is said that among the Three Kingdoms, Mo Cang has the poorest healers, but there are witch doctors handed down from the ancient You Clan, who use spells to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases.

"Hmm..." The old woman on the bed woke up slowly with a low moan, her eyes fell on the round-faced girl beside the bed.

"Grandma, you're awake, how are you feeling now?" Zi Yan happily poured a cup of tea for her to drink.

"Did I faint? Thank you so much, little girl, you look so good-looking." The old woman smiled and patted the girl's hand with gratitude in her eyes.

Li Ru'an raised her eyebrows, Ziyan stretched out her hand in surprise and shook in front of the old woman, "Mother-in-law, you can see it!"

Only then did the old woman come to her senses, she sat up abruptly, put her hands on her eyes, and looked around again, with a joyful and excited expression, "I, I can see!"

"Hey, where is this? Little girl, did you heal my eyes?"

Ziyan smiled and shook her head, moved away and pointed to the person on the soft seat in front, "This is the inn at the entrance of Lisang. It was my young master who saved you. He is a doctor."

The old woman dragged her limp body out of the bed, walked quickly to Li Ru'an who was still dressed in men's clothes, knelt down with a plop, and Zi Yan didn't even have time to support her.

"Thank you son!"

"It's just a matter of raising your hands, Ah Yan, help my mother-in-law to get up and sit down." Li Ru'an put down the chess piece in his hand, and looked at the old woman whose face had recovered in front of him, "Ayan, you go downstairs and bring up some food, my mother-in-law must be hungry."

Little effort?The old woman looked at the handsome young man in front of her in astonishment. She had taken the poison for several months and hadn't completely removed it. How did it get into this little brother's mouth? It seemed as simple as a small wind chill.

"The young master is so young, but his medical skills are so superb, it really shocked the old woman."

Seeing Ziyan leave the room, Li Ru'an said with inquiring eyes, "Mother-in-law is Mo Cang's witch doctor, why did she appear in Daqing and faint by the side of the road?"

The old woman nodded calmly, "Yes, the old woman is a witch doctor in the desert, she was accidentally poisoned a few months ago, and her eyes lost her sight, she has used medicine herself, and also consulted other witch doctors, but nothing has improved. So when I came across the border, I wanted to find a Daqing healer to cure my eyes, but unfortunately I encountered robbers on the road, so I fainted on the side of the road.

Li Ru'an was sure that the old woman did not know martial arts, and her body was very weak due to poisoning, so she slowly relaxed her vigilance and believed this set of words for the time being.

Zi Yan came in with food, carefully selected some soft-tasting food, smiled and held her chin to watch the old woman eat, and suddenly found that the old woman was in a daze and shed tears.

"Mother-in-law? Why are you crying?" Zi Yan was surprised and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

"I'm sorry, it's just that Ah Yan looks a bit like my adopted daughter when she was young, and I felt it for a while..."

"Don't cry, mother-in-law. It's already very late. Tomorrow, the young master and I will take you home, so you can see your daughter."

The old woman's expression froze, and deep sorrow was revealed from the corners of her wrinkled eyes. She smiled wryly, "Thank you, Ah Yan, but my mother-in-law's adopted daughter passed away a few months ago."

Zi Yan paused, and whispered, "Grandma, I'm sorry..."

"Ayan, my mother-in-law likes you very much. This mace pendant is given to you. It is not something precious, but it is a gift from my mother-in-law." The old woman untied a glazed necklace from her neck and put it on Ziyan's neck. , with a white fang hanging on his chest, with a few patterns engraved on it.

"This spike is so beautiful, thank you mother-in-law." Zi Yan lowered her head and touched the smooth spike, but she didn't know that it was this humble necklace that saved her life not long after.

Behind Lisang County is a dense forest at the border. Hong Tao in armor walked under a big tree and told Xiao Huan who was standing with his hands behind his back, "General, I have checked, it is not the army, but some horse bandits and bandits." , to stop the passing merchants from robbing their wealth, and judging by their attire, they should be the notorious horse-blocking thieves on Malan Mountain in Mocang."

Yesterday, the general guarding here wrote to inform that someone disturbed the border. Xiao Huan suspected that it was related to Yu Wentuo, so he came here in person.

"Well, this place is close to Lisang County, don't cause too much commotion, and the battle will be settled quickly." Xiao Huan said as he got on his horse, pulled the rein and galloped forward.

The fight had already started in the dense forest, and Yi Xing cut down the two of them one after another on horseback, raised his head and shouted at the boss behind, "Don't hide, Mr. Gui, come out, I will let you do three tricks!"

A big yellow-haired man drove up his horse and looked contemptuously at Yi Xing who was smiling all over his face, "You brat, don't be ashamed! I eat more salt than you eat!"

"Oh, old man, don't eat too much salt when you are old, and be careful of getting sick!" Yi Xing laughed, with an extremely arrogant attitude.

"Yellow-mouthed boy! See if I don't teach you a lesson! Remember to bring your brains in your next life!" The yellow-haired boss roared, raising his saber, "Give it to me!"

"Kill!" Yi Xing swung the spear in his hand, and the two sides collided instantly!

On a big tree not far away, Ziyan grabbed the hem of his clothes nervously, with a panicked expression, "Hit him, why does he want to provoke them? Isn't that forcing them to jump over the wall!"

Li Ru'an next to him threw a piece of dried fruit into his mouth and chewed, and patted her round head calmly, "This is called shouting before the battle, and it can be regarded as a tactic. Words can arouse the opponent's urgency, but they can also disrupt his mind. Decreases the morale of the opposing team."

Seeing Yi Xing bent down and dodged two sharp knives, Zi Yan almost screamed, covering his mouth tightly, his big eyes were full of worry and fear, seeing him in the capital, he would always look relaxed It turned out that he was so dangerous outside.

"Yi Xing's skill is more than enough to deal with these people. Don't worry, your future husband is very good at martial arts." Li Ru'an leaned on the tree trunk and smiled leisurely.

"...Miss!" Zi Yan's round face blushed, and she shouted in embarrassment.

Soon the fight was coming to an end, most of them were black-clothed and black-armored soldiers, the winner was already divided, and the sound of horseshoes could be heard vaguely, Li Ruan smiled slightly when he saw Xiao Huan, still in white clothes and white horse, coming from a distance.

"General, how to deal with these people?"

"Notorious, mere horse thieves dare to invade the border of Daqing, kill me." Xiao Huan glanced at the remaining horse thieves under custody, and said coldly.

As soon as the words fell, the yellow-haired leader whose throat was pressed by Yi Xing's spear suddenly opened his eyes. He kicked his legs and backed up, tore off the cloth bag at his waist, and threw it upwards!At the same time, Yi Xing chased after him with a spear in his hand, and immediately blocked his throat to see blood!

"Ahem! It's a poisonous powder! Everyone, hold your breath!" Yi Xing covered his mouth and nose with his arm, and shouted in a muffled voice!
It was too late, the wind direction just blew the diffuse powder to the position of a group of assembled Xuanjia soldiers, and the soldiers fell down one after another clutching their throats!

Xiao Huan flicked his long sleeves and brushed away the poisonous mist. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a few horse thieves running away. Before the long sword in his hand was shot, the horse thieves fell to the ground with a plop. !
