Chapter 268 - He Got Shot by Arrows Twice (1/2)

With such a dense arrow rain and offensive attack, it was impossible to dodge all.

However, it seemed Xiao Baoshan was not injured at all. After he walked over, he first picked up some rags and pulled the arrows out of his body. Then he glanced at w.a.n.g Wen to motion him to come over and bind up his wounds.

Tarico remembered that there were some medicinal herbs that he had bought in Central Plain on the back of the camel. He said immediately, “Wait a minute, there are some herbs that help stop bleeding. I’ll go get them.”

Tarico applied some medical balm on Xiao Baoshan’s wound.

Looking at the wound again, Tarico took another breath.

The arrowhead of the Bandits might not be as good as the soldiers’, but it was also very sharp. Once got shot, one would get deep round wounds and bleeing heavily.

Most people would have already been howling.

However, the reaction of Xiao Baoshan was like being bitten by mosquitoes, even without humming.

Tarico wondered if he was still human.

……

On the way back, Xiao Baoshan’s status suddenly rose. Everyone surrounded him and was willing to do anything for him. As the desert conditions were terrible, everyone was worried if his wounds would get worse.

At first, it was as though there were nothing wrong with Xiao Baoshan but in the last two days, he got paler.

Once, Tarico found that his condition did not improved at all.

Well, it would be a miracle if he got better in such a terrible desert condition.

Therefore, Tarico sped up his speed. Now, what was a must was to return to the tribe and heal his wounds.

……

Ye Xiaoxian’s eyes had been twitching for several days.

She thought she was the only one who was like this, but she didn’t expect that one night, Li Hongmei would also say, “Why is my eye always twicthing? Quite strange, did something happen to Xiao Baoshan?”

Unexpectedly, Xiao Baozhu also echoed, “Me too. My eyes are twitching. It’s a bad omen.”

Of course, Xiao Baozhu was lying.

She knew about Li Hongmei’s plan, so she wanted to make Ye Xiaoxian panicked and even care more about Xiao Baoshan so that after Xiao Baoshan came back, Ye Xiaoxian might treat her brother better.

But Li Hongmei was telling the truth. She asked Xiao Baozhu to take a closer look. When Xiao Baozhu saw her eyes were really twtiching, she added, “Mom, your left eye is twitching. It would be good news. After all, left eye means fortune and right eye means disaster.”

“Are you sure? But what I heard is completely contrary.”

“Of course, I couldn’t be wrong. There was a period of time when my right eye kept twitching, and then those gangsters came.”

“…”

Ye Xiaoxian was even more fl.u.s.tered when she heard the two of them argued heatedly.

She felt like something was going to happen.

……

A new day began.

Ye Xiaoxian was working outside. Later, a girl called A’Zhi came over to inform her that a guest was here and asked her to go back to receive the guest.

“A guest?” Ye Xiaoxian asked, “Is it the Seventh King?”

Apart from Li Chengru, she didn’t expect anyone else would come.

A’Zhi replied, “No, it’s two middle-aged men. They originally wanted to meet your husband, but isn’t he in the tribe? So they came to meet you.”

When she heard the word “husband”, Ye Xiaoxian was fl.u.s.tered more.

She thought that could it really be as the saying went that distance made hearts grow fonder? After all, now she was really worried about Xiao Baoshan.

……

When Ye Xiaoxian returned to the yurt, she saw Qian Qi and a middle-aged man.

“General Qian?” She was surprised. Why was Qian Qi here?

She didn’t know if she should be courteous. After all, bowing was a must etiquette when meeting any officials in the ancient time.

Qian Qi hurriedly refused her bowing and then said to Ye Xiaoxian, “Last time we met, the Sixth King promised that he would find a doctor for General Xiao. So this is the doctor he found. Coincidentally, his surname is also Xiao. You can call him Dr. Xiao. He has treated patients with similar symptoms before.”

“Oh,” Ye Xiaoxian immediately greeted the doctor.

Dr. Xiao looked around 40 years old with glossy skin and energetic voice, which was like some very excellent Chinese doctors in modern times.

Just judging from his appearance, Ye Xiaoxian felt that he should have some tricks.

Qian Qi added, “I originally wanted to talk to General Xiao about something. Since General Xiao is not in the tribe now, I will come back another day. However, Dr. Xiao will stay here to wait for General Xiao. Moreover, Dr. Xiao is interested in the herbs on the Tianshan tribe’s side. He wants to take this time to pick up some herbs. So I have to bother you to receive him and give him a private yurt.”

Ye Xiaoxian got his ideas.

After receiving both Qianqi and Dr. Xiao, Ye Xiaoxian asked for a new yurt, intending to build it up for Dr. Xiao.

Squire Liu took charge of their resources and accounts and they needed to register and settle with Squire Liu.

After Li Hongmei found out, she also followed behind and said to Ye Xiaoxian and Squire Liu, “How about taking out two yurts?”

“Why two?” Ye Xiaoxian asked.
