Rebirth of a Star General

Rebirth of a Star General Chapter 74

Medicine

After crossing the hill, the subsequent road was a bit easier.

Xiao Jue drove his horse to a trot. Unknowingly, He Yan fell asleep, not knowing how long it took. Someone patted her on the shoulders and called her name, “He Yan!”

She opened her eyes and saw Instructor Liang standing in front of her. She was still dozing against Xiao Jue and there was a faint trace of dampness on the inside of Xiao Jue’s sleeves, which might be because of her saliva.

He Yan wiped her mouth and said apologetically, “Is that ok…”

Before she could finish speaking, the person had already dismounted neatly, almost causing her to fall over. Xiao Jue said to Liang Ping, “I’ll leave it to you.” Without even looking at He Yan, he left by himself.

He Yan, “…”

Look at that, he didn’t even give her a chance to say thank you. He Yan shrugged, Liang Ping helped herself down from the horse. Green Ears was also quick-witted. After He Yan left, he lifted his hooves and went to find his master.

There was blood all over He Yan, even though Liang Ping was full of doubts, he couldn’t ask at this moment and only said, “Can you still move?”

“Instructor Liang looks down on me too much,” she smiled, “there is no problem.”

“Hey,” Liang Ping sighed, “Forget it, I will send you back first, bandage the wound first, and we’ll talk about it later.”

He Yan immediately agreed.

In the room, Mak, Shi, and the others were waiting. As soon as He Yan entered, a group of people gathered up and asked in a hurry.

“How are you? Are you okay? Is everything fine?”

“Why is there so much blood? Did someone die?”

He Yan even saw Wang Ba, sitting on the box in the corner. Seeing her, he seemed to want to step forward. Finally, he endured it and hummed, “So you’re not dead.”

“Thank you, brother,” He Yan already knew from Liang Ping that it was Wang Ba who went looking for Shen Han. She blinked at him and said gratifiedly, “The brother misses me so much, this boss feels very moved.”

“You!” Wang Ba jumped up from the box, glared at her like a cat with blown up fur, and walked away angrily, almost breaking the door before leaving.

He Yan was helped to sit on her bed as Shi handed He Yan a bowl of water. He Yan finished drinking in one gulp, finally feeling that her throat became more comfortable.

Mak said, “Brother Ahe, your hands have been  bleeding. Change your clothes quickly, okay?”

He Yan coughed lightly, “In fact, it’s not that serious.”

“Is this not serious?” Hong Shan frowned. “If it wasn’t for General Xiao who went up the mountain to find you, would you still be alive tomorrow morning?”

“You shouldn’t play hero,” Jiang Jiao also came. “It’s not worth it for that kind of person.”

“Not bad.” Huang Xiong pinched the Buddha beads on his neck. “You should have let them face the wolves by themselves.”

He Yan, “…” She looked at the room full of people, and for the first time she found out that her popularity was so high? So many people… it is really noisy.

In the midst of the chatter, someone pushed the door and came in again, sounding like an oriole, “You all go out, I’ll deliver the medicine.”

The room fell silent for a moment.

He Yan looked over curiously and saw that the crowd split out automatically, and a young woman walked in. The woman was wearing a pure white satin dress, her long hair tied in a bun with a white ribbon, and a lotus flower jade hairpin on her head. She was looking simple and beautiful. She had a soft jade face, moon-like brows, and starry eyes that were very slender and charming.

Even the mosquitoes in the Liangzhou Wei were all male. Where will they ever see such an elegant and refined beauty? For a while, these guys were silent, for fear of disturbing this charming fairy.

He Yan was confused and only asked, “You are…”

“I am Liangzhou Wei’s medical girl,” the girl whispered, “Shen Muxue.”

He Yan felt the name was familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had heard it. Shen Muxue had already gently placed the medicine bowl in her hand on to the bed. After that, she turned around and said to the others, “Could you all please go out first.”

Hong Shan blushed immediately and said, “Okay, okay.” He yelled and drove the others out, and when he left, he gave He Yan an enviable look.

He Yan, “…”

He Yan asked, “Is this the medicine for me?”

Shen Muxue nodded, and He Yan picked up the bowl and drank it. Shen Muxue was stunned and said, “Actually, you don’t have to drink so urgently…”

“Huh?” He Yan scratched her head, “I’ll have to drink it anyway.”

Seemingly amused by her, Shen Muxue smiled, and said, “Then little brother take off your clothes first, I’ll apply the medicine for you.”

He Yan hesitated for a while with the ready-made hot water beside her, and said, “Well, Miss Shen, you can just put the medicine here, I’ll apply it myself.”

“You?” Shen Muxue shook her head, “I’ll do it.”

“You are young, and you are still a girl,” He Yan said earnestly and persuaded her, “I am a man after all, you can see how bad it is.”

“There is no man or woman in front of the doctor.” Shen Muxue replied.

He Yan thought for a while, “You don’t care, I do.”

Shen Muxue raised her head and He Yan looked back fearlessly while saying, “I have a fiancee, Miss Shen, my body can only be seen by my fiancee. If my pure and innocent body gets tainted by you. You’ll have to take responsibility. Understand?” She wrapped her clothes tightly as if she would rather die than yield.

Shen Muxue had never seen such a shameless person, and for a while, the movement of her hand stopped. She didn’t know how to react when she looked at her.

“You can leave the medicine here.” He Yan said, “I’ll apply the medicine myself, as I want to protect myself as jade for my sweetheart. You must not harm me.” She looked serious.

Shen Muxue was speechless for a moment and was finally defeated by He Yan’s shamelessness. She said, “The medicine and hot water are here. I’ll go out. You can call me when you’re done.”

He Yan gladly nodded, “Thank you, Miss, for your understanding.”

As Shen Muxue retired, He Yan sighed in relief. She hurriedly took off her blood-covered clothes, took the piece of cloth soaked in hot water, and wiped her lower body haphazardly, after that she changed into a set of clean clothes. She rolled up her sleeves, as her  elbow that was bitten by the wolf was bloody and horrible. He Yan took a deep breath, changed the piece of cloth, to wash the blood from the wound.

At this moment, the door was pushed open again, as He Yan was still busy wiping, she said without looking up, “Didn’t I say that you don’t need to come in, I will apply the medicine myself?”

A cold voice sounded, “Your chastity for your fiancee is really touching.”

He Yan raised her head and saw Xiao Jue standing a few steps away from her, holding his chest and looking at her calmly.

He Yan’s heart almost jumped out of her chest. Fortunately, she moved fast and had already changed her clothes, so she squeezed out a smile, “Why is the general here? You shouldn’t have come to settle the scores with me, right? I told you earlier, I didn’t mean to touch your waist on the mountain before.”

Xiao Jue’s expression stiffened, his eyes were almost on fire , but he just raised his hand, and a round object was thrown into He Yan’s arms.

He Yan picked it up and saw that it was an exquisite porcelain bottle, which looked like a mandarin pot. She pulled out the stopper and smelt it closely, it felt bitter and astringent.

“This is… medicine?” she asked hesitantly.

The man said in a bad mood, “Heal your own injuries first.”

This scene was inexplicably familiar. He Yan was startled and looked at him again. Xiao Jue had just changed his clothes, as clean as new, standing here, looking very beautiful, moonlight streaming down from outside, reflecting his long graceful figure, and for an instant, seemed to have returned to the old days.

Almost similar…
