C18 Herb Collection

If a soldier was injured, but there was no herb to be used, the responsibility would only fall on the military doctor.

The first was Ji Qingye's ambiguous attitude towards her. He seemed to belittle her, but in reality, he was praising her schemes.

However, in order to survive, he had to do his job well.

The next day, Cui Mengxi carried the bamboo basket on her back and prepared to gather some herbs.

The soldier on guard had seen her several times and knew that she was an army doctor.

Apart from officers, military doctors were not restricted by too many rules.

"I am going out to gather herbs. Can the two big brothers let me in?"

The soldiers didn't make things difficult for her. Perhaps the war was more important, but they still reminded her, "The troops outside are in chaos. Doctor Cui, don't stay outside for too long, lest it is too dangerous."

Cui Mengxi nodded, her face clear.

"Thank you."

Ji Qingye was truly worthy of being called the leader. He chose this place to set up his camp. If he could attack, he could defend. In front of him was a ravine, and behind him was a mountain forest.

If there hadn't been any war, this place would have been a paradise, yet it was stained with the scent of blood.

Her body after acupuncture was clearly stronger than last night. After walking for a while, she was not tired at all. Unknowingly, Cui Mengxi's footsteps stopped.

The sea of flowers spread out from under her feet. Each flower swayed in the sunlight and the wind, emitting a unique fragrance as far as the eye could see.

Cui Mengxi took a deep whiff of the scent of the flowers and plants, crouched down and carefully dug them up.

Although this task seemed small, it was actually more tiring than climbing a mountain. One had to focus their mind and soul into it, otherwise the root of the grass would be damaged and the medicinal efficacy would be damaged.

If he couldn't dig with the shovel, he would use his other hand.

Deep and shallow, he dug out around a dozen sets of ginseng, which was enough for a month.

Cui Mengxi casually dug out some medicinal herbs that could heal one's wounds and ingested them internally, causing the bamboo basket on her back to suddenly gain weight.

"..."

Within the military tent.

Ji Qingye's expression was dark, and the veins on his forehead were popping out.

He ran away?

Cui Mengxi was not in the tent, and after searching for a while, she could not find anything.

"General, we will see that the military doctor won't run too far."

Although his voice was young and tender, his face was weathered. On the right side of his face, a finger long scar had faded over time to become a white color. His lips were dry and cracked, showing a bit of dead skin.

Ji Qingye stood with his hands behind his back, a look of disbelief on his proud and aloof face. "Li Shou Yi, how did you end up betraying the army camp?"

Li Shouyi was a young soldier under Ji Qingye's command. Although he was young, his bones were strange and he was one of the best amongst his peers.

The military law was understood by heart. Li Shou said, "According to our country's military law, we have two hundred and ten rules of the third book. Anyone who betrays the military camp should be hanged!"

Strangle...

Cui Mengxi, who was standing outside the tent, broke out in a cold sweat. She had just finished harvesting the medicine when the soldiers came looking for her.

The conversation continued.

"General, do you want this general to bring someone to find her? "Even if you want to climb over mountains, you should at least find it for her!"

Cui Mengxi secretly took a peek through the gap. The young man inside was dressed in silver armour. His hair was tied up high and a sword hung from his waist. The red tassels hanging from the sword looked rather old.

With Cui Mengxi's many years of killing intent, this person was not simple at all. His strength probably did not match his appearance at all. Moreover –

This is bad!

"Who is it!" Li Shou Yi shouted from inside the tent.

The long sword was about to pierce through the door.

Cui Mengxi twisted her body to dodge the attack.
