The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

The soldier looked into Lu Zhaoling's eyes and had no doubt that there was something wrong with the medicine.

"Do you think that if you give me the medicine, I can take you into the village? No, I really can't do that today."

He handed the medicine back to her.

Lu Zhaoling simply opened the bottle and poured some medicine powder into his palm.

"Just swallow it, quickly, or the wind will blow it away."

The soldier stared blankly at the medicine powder in his hand. He didn't expect her to do this. Just now when she wanted to pour the medicine, he subconsciously reached out his hand.

It’s a bit embarrassing to watch it now.

"Hurry up, if you don't eat, you will feel more pain later."

This is true. If a trace of Yin energy enters the abdomen, it is no joke.

The soldier hesitated for a moment, then felt the wind blowing towards him. His hands were faster than his brain, so he quickly poured the medicine powder into his mouth.

When he tilted his head back to pour the medicine powder, Lu Zhaoling brushed a talisman across his stomach. The talisman fire ignited and quickly burned to ashes.

She reached out and rubbed it.

The ashes of the talisman fell one after another.

The soldier noticed her little action and thought she had some medicine powder in her hand.

After swallowing the medicine powder, he felt his mouth was dry and wanted to go back and drink some water.

But when he saw Lu Zhaoling here, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, it would be unfair to take her medicine but not give her any convenience.

"If it doesn't work, come with me to the bamboo house. Tell me where your uncle lives in the village and I'll check for you."

"Okay, thank you bro."

While following him to the bamboo house where they were staying temporarily, Lu Zhaoling asked his name.

The soldier's name is Lu Yuan, he is sixteen years old and joined the army a year ago because his family is poor.

Lu Yuan said that they were all soldiers under Captain Su, and the next ones to take over would be Brigadier General Song's men.

Lu Zhaoling wrote it down.

Anyway, there are two people, one is Captain Su, and the other is Lieutenant General Song.

After Lu Yuan walked a few steps, he felt a little warmth in his abdomen and the pain was relieved a lot.

He thought it was just his illusion. After all, how could there be any medicine that works so quickly?

But soon, the warm feeling in his abdomen became clearer and he no longer felt the pain. Only then did he realize that the medicine was really working.

In fact, Lu Zhaoling's talisman is more effective.

Because of this reason, Lu Yuan's attitude towards Lu Zhaoling became better.

"Actually, judging from your age, you're only a few years younger than my mother." He said to Lu Zhaoling, "It doesn't seem right to call you elder sister, how about I call you aunt?"

Lu Zhaoling: “…”

Not necessary!

Does she really look that old?

"Lu Yuan!"

Two older soldiers came towards us arm in arm.

Their eyes all fell on Lu Zhaoling.

"Who is this?"

The expressions of these two people were obviously not so friendly.

Just as Lu Zhaoling was about to speak, Lu Yuan spoke first, "She is my cousin, and she came here to see me. Brothers, please don't tell the adults."

"How did your cousin find her way here?"

"She went to the military camp to look for me. I don't know how she found out that I was here, so she sneaked over here."

The two men frowned and believed the letter, but their tone was not very good.

"You know what the captain's temper is like. If he knew that you let your family come here, he would definitely give you a beating."

"That's right, send him away quickly."

Lu Zhaoling said to herself: It's really rude of you to want to send me away.

"Yes, yes, I'll take her into the house to drink some hot water, ask her about the situation at home, and then let her go back quickly." Lu Yuan said.

"Take care of yourself."

The two soldiers glanced at Lu Zhaoling again and continued to walk away arm in arm.

But Lu Zhaoling had sharp ears and heard them whispering a few words.

"It's rare to have a woman here, and she's such an older woman. Can't there be a younger one?"

"That's right. I've been here for eight or nine days. Every day I see this desolate and shabby scenery. Add to that the gloomy village ahead, and it's suffocating."

"Just now I looked closely at Lu Yuan's aunt and she has a nice figure. If she was a few years younger..."

I couldn't hear anything after that. But just hearing these few words made Lu Zhaoling's face turn cold.

Lu Yuan asked her to leave quickly.

He lowered his voice and said, "You can see that these are all rough soldiers. Next time you really want to come, it would be better if you ask the men in your family to come over."

He has only been here for a year, but many of Captain Su's soldiers have been in the barracks for several years.

After staying in the border town military camp for a long time, it is no longer necessary to be so particular about what you say and do.

"Could they do anything bad to ordinary people like us?"

"Not all of them are like this, but our boss is Captain Su."

After Lu Yuan said this, he didn't want to say anything more.

"Is Lieutenant General Song also such a person?"

"Commander Song is different from Captain Su. He..." Lu Yuan shook his head, "Aunt, don't ask anymore. Come in and tell me where your uncle lives. I'll check it for you."

There are three bamboo houses here. The two side ones have simple large bunk beds with clothes, shoes and other things piled on them. The middle one has a table and a cabinet.

There's no one in there at the moment.

Lu Yuan said they were all out on patrol and would be back later, so it would be inconvenient if they came back.

Lu Zhaoling didn't know which two soldiers Qing Xiao heard talking earlier.

Lu Yuan took out a booklet and spread out a hand-drawn picture.

Lu Zhaoling took a quick glance and saw some simple house symbols and some human-shaped symbols painted on it.

"Don't look at it, stand further away!" Lu Yuan glanced at her and held down the picture.

"Okay, okay, I won't watch it."

"Tell me, where does your uncle live?"

Lu Zhaoling said, "I haven't been here for a long time, so I don't remember it very clearly, but it's not at the head of the village, nor at the end of the village, but in the middle of the village. His family only has a shabby house..."

She just made it up anyway.

But there must be such an approximate location.

As she spoke, Lu Yuan was looking for the corresponding position on the map.

"That's where about seven or eight houses in the front alley are?"

"Yeah, yeah, almost."

Lu Yuan glanced at her again, this time with a bit of pity in his eyes, "That location is where the villagers were killed most brutally, and the houses were also burned. Therefore, the bodies there were burned black and definitely unrecognizable."

Lu Zhaoling's face darkened.

She was thinking about the cruelty and viciousness of the people who massacred the villagers. Lu Yuan thought she was feeling sad for her uncle, so he sighed again and couldn't help but say a few more words to her.

"Those charred bodies have not been moved yet and remain where they were. If you want to go in, you have to pay five taels of silver. Come back tomorrow and we'll take you in to identify the person."

"But I think it's better for you not to go in, because the current state of the village will give you nightmares if you go in and take a look."
