Chapter 411
Chapter 411
Early the next morning, after everyone had eaten some dry food and got organized, Bei Suqi led a thousand soldiers to clear the road blocked by heavy snow.
Bei Suqi was wearing heavy armor and an iron helmet, looking heroic. He stood in front of the tent, looking firmly at the road not far away, which was covered by heavy snow sliding down from the mountain.
A thousand soldiers lined up in neat rows, in high spirits, waiting for his orders.
"Today, we have to clear the roads blocked by heavy snow and speed up our progress," Bei Suqi said in a loud and firm voice.
The soldiers responded "yes" in unison, their voices deafening.
Shangguan Ziling's mouth twitched. Isn't her second cousin afraid of the heavy snow on the top of the mountain and another avalanche?
They picked up tools borrowed from nearby residents and prepared to clear the road.
The wind was cold and the sky was gloomy. Fortunately, it did not snow heavily today. The soldiers, unafraid of the severe cold, braved the cold wind and began to clear the roads blocked by the heavy snow.
They shoveled and swept, and worked themselves into a sweat in the cold weather.
Bei Suqi took the lead personally. He waved a shovel and shoveled the snow one by one.
Time passed bit by bit, and the blocked road was cleared so that the carriage could pass.
Shangguan Ziling was worried that she would have another hemorrhage, but it didn't happen.
Bei Suqi came back with big strides, his face was dusty but with a hint of determination and joy. He looked at Shangguan Ziling standing beside him, his eyes flashing with determination, as if telling her that he had completed the difficult task.
"Cousin, the road has been cleared, and the carriage can just pass through." Bei Suqi's voice was low and powerful, as if it injected strength into Shangguan Ziling.
Shangguan Ziling heard this, a trace of relief flashed in her eyes, she nodded, "Rest for a while, we will set off again."
"Ok".
The soldiers sat down one after another, some leaning against tree trunks, and some sitting on the ground, chewing on their dry food.
Shangguan Ziling walked up to Bei Suqi and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, second cousin. I have come this far thanks to your help." Her voice was gentle and grateful, like a spring breeze that swept away all the fatigue in Bei Suqi's heart.
Bei Suqi smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Cousin, this is what I should do. As long as I can get you to your destination safely, no matter how hard it is, it will be worth it."
The two stood side by side, looking at the rolling hills and winding roads in the distance.
At this time, the soldiers had almost rested, and Shangguan Ziling and Bei Suqi also set out on their journey again.
The carriage slowly drove along the cleared road, and Shangguan Ziling entered the space.
They started on their journey, and Bei Suqi no longer had to worry about Shangguan Ziling's health.
Shangguan Ziling did not slack off at all after entering the space.
She knew that the battlefield was full of flames and the soldiers were fighting bravely, and many brave warriors would inevitably be injured in the swordplay. Therefore, she decided to use the time on the road to concentrate on making medicine in space.
In the space, medicinal herbs were piled up like mountains, and all kinds of rare herbs were available. Shangguan Ziling gently brushed over the herbs, and a warm current surged in her heart.
Each of these herbs contains the essence of nature, and each of them can be a life-saving medicine. She carefully picked the herbs, put them into a delicate medicine jar, and prepared to start making medicine.
The process of making medicine is not simple, and requires precise control of the temperature and the proportion of medicinal materials.
Shangguan Ziling was fully focused on making the medicine. Her fingers tapped lightly on the medicine jar, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
As the fire gradually heats up, the aroma of the herbs begins to permeate the entire space, making people feel relaxed and happy.
As time went by, Shangguan Ziling finally made batches of healing medicines. She carefully packed the medicines into medicine bottles and prepared to take them to the battlefield to heal the wounded soldiers.
During the process of making medicine, Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but fall into deep thought. She thought of those brave soldiers and the scenes of them fighting bloody battles on the battlefield.
Her heart was filled with respect and gratitude for the soldiers, and she became more determined to treat the wounded and save lives.
The little fat boy looked at Shangguan Ziling who was busy at the side and said, "Master, you are worrying for nothing. Don't we have the military doctor and that old man Xue?"
Shangguan Ziling came back to his senses, "Little Fatty, you also said that the battlefield is tragic. I have nothing to do now, so I can make more medicine and help the injured soldiers on the battlefield."
The little fat boy fought with his two little hands, "Master, I'm just worried that you are tired."
"I know, just rest when you are tired. Look, they are the ones who are tired, they are still on the road."
The little fat boy looked out through the space and saw Qiu Kui holding the Zi Zun ring in the carriage.
The little fat boy said: "Master, don't take off the Zizun ring again in the future."
"Well, I know. This is also out of urgency. They are worried about me, so they slowed down along the way to take care of me. Only when I entered the space, they would no longer worry about me, so they would speed all the way without taking off the rings. They are in a hurry, but we are still here. Don't worry, they are all trustworthy people."
The little fat boy nodded and said, "Master, people's hearts are complicated. You'd better not tell too many people about the space ring. It's better to be safe than sorry."
Shangguan Ziling said, "Hmm," "I know!"
After a long and tiring journey, they finally arrived at the border of Dongyue.
The sky is filled with sand and the land is vast, forming a sharp contrast with the prosperous country behind.
Shangguan Ziling stood on a piece of empty land, looking into the distance, her heart full of anticipation and nervousness.
"Second cousin, let's find an open space here and rest for a while." Shangguan Ziling turned and said to her cousin beside her. Although her voice was soft, it was full of determination.
The group had been traveling for many days and was exhausted both physically and mentally, and in urgent need of rest and adjustment.
Bei Suqi nodded, looked around, and chose a relatively flat open space.
They dismounted, unpacked their luggage, and began to build a temporary resting place.
Shangguan Ziling sat on a big rock with her eyes closed, as if thinking about her next move.
"Dongqing, go and find out what the current situation is?" Shangguan Ziling ordered.
Dongqing nodded, quickly tidied her clothes, and her figure soon disappeared in the wind and sand.
Before dark, Dongqing came back and said, "Master, the army of Dongyue and the Northern Kingdom just attacked Xiliang today. Xiliang was defeated and is now hiding in the city. The morale of the Xiliang army is low. It looks like the prince and his men will attack the city early tomorrow morning."
