Medical concubine in power

Chapter 397 Discovery
The huge force made Zhang Shengji take a few steps back.A smile also spread across his face at this time.He hugged Xie Muxin's slender waist, and couldn't help but increase the strength in his hands.

"It turns out that there are some dead branches and leaves under here. Really, it made me worry for nothing." Time passed by, and when the sky began to darken slowly, Xie Muxin's fear gradually Calm down.She walked out of Zhang Shengji's arms and looked around and the ground, only to see that there were trees all around, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of leaves that hadn't even had time to rot.

The leaves are stacked in thick layers.They were standing on top of the piles of leaves, and the leaves seemed to be tired to their knees, not including the thick leaves that were trampled under their feet.

"Why does it look a bit weird here?" Xie Muxin looked around while the heat was still dark.A gust of wind blew over her body, making her goose bumps all over her body.

She touched her arm and raised her head to look at Zhang Shengji's profile.Just looking at it like this can make her feel an inexplicable sense of stability in her heart.

"I'm afraid no one has been here for a long time. Let's make an open space to light a fire first." Zhang Shengji looked around, and the hands that were holding Xie Muxin slowly loosened at this time.

After all, in such an unknown place, darkness is more frightening.And the firelight, while dispelling the darkness, can also make people feel a bit warm.

While speaking, he had already used his internal strength and struck the fallen leaves with his palm.All of a sudden, fallen leaves were flying everywhere, like goose feathers and heavy snow falling from the sky.He did this two more times, and the fallen leaves under his feet spread out in all directions, revealing a large open space.

When he cleared out such an open space, Xie Muxin had already broken off a few branches from the tree and threw them on the ground.When the sky was getting darker and darker, a gleam of fire also rose from the ground.Xie Muxin gnawed on the fruit that Zhang Shengji found for her. Although the taste was bitter, it also made her desire to survive stronger.

For a while, at the bottom of the silent cliff, apart from the sound of the wind, there was only the sound of gnawing fruit, which was constantly echoing.

"We are under such a cliff, can we still go out?" When Xie Muxin finished eating a fruit, the sky was completely dark at this time, and the fire seemed to have become the only source of light.Xie Muxin fixed his gaze on Zhang Shengji's face, and at this moment his body slowly moved towards him.

The flames made Zhang Shengji's handsome face red.He looked at Xie Muxin's body moving towards him, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his heart became much more relaxed.

He was about to speak to comfort Xie Muxin, but before he could make a sound, Xie Muxin suddenly jumped up from the ground.Rao Zhang Shengji was shocked by this sudden movement.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Xie Muxin who kept jumping around with his hands behind his back and touching his pants, a worried look flashed across Zhang Shengji's face.He stood up, but just stretched out his hands towards Xie Muxin, but Xie Muxin turned his body sideways to dodge.

"You...see if there is anything below..." Xie Muxin only felt a tingling sensation from his buttocks.She touched it carefully a few times, and after confirming that there was no bleeding, she was slightly relieved.

Seeing that Xie Muxin didn't accept his touch, Zhang Shengji didn't force it.He picked up a torch and looked at the place Xie Muxin pointed at, but at this moment his eyes touched a small bump on the ground.If it wasn't for Xie Muxin's pain, under the dim light, he would never be able to see it if he didn't pay attention.

He squatted down and touched the bump with both hands at the same time.The hard feeling in his hands made his brows furrowed tightly.Under Xie Muxin's puzzled eyes, he exerted force on his hand, and the soil on the side also spread out at this time, revealing the situation under the soil.

"What... is this?" Xie Muxin asked involuntarily, seeing what looked like a manhole cover suddenly appeared in front of him.There seemed to be a bit of fear in the tone of his speech.

She involuntarily raised her head and looked around, a bold idea also emerged from her mind at this time.Could it be that... the fallen leaves are so thick just to cover up the thing underneath?So what is hidden under the ground here?
The more Xie Muxin thought about it, the more startled she became.Her and Zhang Shengji's eyes blended together, and they both saw firm emotions in each other's eyes.The two nodded together.However, just when Zhang Shengji was trying to lift the cover with force, a shout rang in their ears at this moment.

"Master Zhang, Miss Xin, are you over there?" Almost at the moment when this not-so-unfamiliar voice sounded, Xie Muxin recognized that it was the voice of a member of the white team next to Mu Jiayu.She glanced at the "well cover" under her feet with some regret, but felt a little relieved inexplicably.

She turned her face to the direction of the sound, and a loud voice came out of her mouth at this time.

"It's us! We are here!" She shouted loudly, and Zhang Shengji, who was behind her now, seemed to respond to her words, and at this time, the torch in his hand was constantly waving in the air.

……

In the inn, Xie Muyan looked at the burning candles in front of her, and the flickering lights once again led her thoughts to the other side.I couldn't help but think of Xie Muxin in my heart.

"I'm thinking about Xiner again. According to the time, Xiner should be on the way back." Mu Jiayu was holding a pot of snacks in his hand, and at some point he had already stood behind Xie Muyan.He looked at Xie Muyan's eyes without blinking, and knew in his heart that Xie Muyan was distracted.

A helpless look flashed across his face.However, the moment he finished speaking, Xie Muyan's voice sounded immediately after.

"Those patients, after drinking the medicine I gave, how are they? Are they still vomiting?" Mu Jiayu's words successfully awakened Xie Muyan's thoughts.She immediately came back to her senses, and immediately focused on the patient.

Under Xie Muyan's slightly hopeful gaze, Mu Jiayu nodded slightly despite her reluctance.Even if she doesn't want to disappoint Xie Muyan, this is the truth after all.Even if he is the emperor, he is not allowed to change.

Xie Muyan frowned when she heard his words. After all, she was too rash this time and underestimated the plague.

Xie Muyan stood up, "I'll go and see again, is there something missing? How could it have no effect?"

Seeing her like that, Mu Jiayu felt a little distressed, because his affairs, Xie Muxin's affairs, and then the plague made her exhausted, but he could only watch from the sidelines, unable to help!
"Yan'er, we will find a solution. You don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. I don't want to see them getting better, but you are exhausted."

Xie Muyan looked at him when she heard the words, and smiled at him forcefully, her former calmness was gone. There was too much uneasiness in her heart, which made her unable to calm down.

She didn't understand why those people didn't get better after taking the medicine that was obviously suitable for the symptoms, but instead got worse?

"Yan'er, I'll go with you." Mu Jiayu actually wanted her to take a good rest, but judging by her state, she might as well find something to do.

Under the support of the white team, Zhang Shengji and Xie Muyan quickly returned to this town. They walked along the way, and there were a few people in twos and threes on the street.Because people from the imperial court came over, a lot of shops opened on both sides of the street.There are quite a lot of people in some teahouses.

It's not as quiet and desolate as when they first entered the town, but it's not much better?The faces of those people are not very good.Are their illnesses not cured?Her sister's prescription is still problematic?

This plague may not be as simple as they imagined.Now Xie Muxin is full of questions?She looked at Zhang Shengji, who also shook his head helplessly.

She looked at the white team members who were looking for them again, and they shook their heads at the same time. They didn't know what happened?Seeing this, Xie Muxin had a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

"I'm so tired after walking so far, why don't we go to this teahouse to have a rest."

When Zhang Shengji saw her doubtful and gloomy little face, he smiled slightly, turned around and said to the guards of the white team, "You go back first, and say hello to your master. Xin go to this teahouse to have a sit and come back later."

A few people looked at me and I looked at you. Finally, they agreed with him and disappeared in front of them.

Zhang Shengji walked over and took Xie Muxin's hand, "Let's go inside to have a rest, have a cup of tea, and exchange feelings by the way."

"Who is exchanging feelings with you?" Xie Muxin gave him a hard look, but he didn't shake off his hand. There was a blush on his face, and there was still a little sweetness in his heart.

She does not reject Zhang Shengji's closeness, especially after the cliff incident, she has already identified Zhang Shengji in her heart.

Seeing that she didn't shake off his hand, Zhang Shengji felt as if his heart had been wiped with honey.As for her eyes, his eyes were shy, a sign of his approval.

Seeing them coming in, Xiao Er came up to greet them, "Do you two guests want to sit in the private room or the hall?"

The two looked at the hall. Although there were many people sitting in the hall, there were still many empty seats.The people in the hall sat and chatted together in groups of three or four, and they thought that they might be able to get some useful information for them.
