Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 76 Liu Bei's Acting Skills
Bao Long has been very worried these days!

There has been no news of the general since he returned from the battlefield seriously injured.

He wanted to visit, but was stopped outside by Liu Bei and was not even allowed to see him.

This is a serious problem!

He was really afraid that something might happen to the general.

In fact, it was not just him. Liu Feng and Guan Ping also had worried expressions on their faces.

But after all, the relationship between Bao Long and Xing Daorong is the deepest, and naturally he is most worried about them.

Now that he was stopped outside by Liu Bei, Bao Long had no choice but to ask Wei Yan, who had witnessed the general's condition with his own eyes, to find out more about the situation.

"General Bao, I really don't know what General Xing's condition is. I only know that he was still awake when I went to rescue him. How would I know anything else?"

Wei Yan didn't want to hide it from Bao Long. In fact, like Bao Long, he didn't know what Xing Daorong's situation was.

After being looked for by Wei Yan again and again, he finally became a little impatient and spoke in a hurry.

But he was anxious, and Bao Long was even more anxious.

He immediately shouted, "You saved the general, how could you not know?"

According to Wei Yan's usual temper, he would have lost his temper and chased Bao Long away for being so "stubborn". However, considering that Bao Long had led the troops to save him last time, and also knowing that he was worried about Xing Daorong, he was able to control his temper and said patiently, "I know that the general had a lot of wounds on his body that day, and an arrow was stuck in his chest. As for the rest, I will do the same as you after I come back. After handing the general over to the lord, I am not allowed to visit him. I really don't know!"

Arrow?

It was the first time that Bao Long heard about Xing Daorong's injury condition. When he heard about the arrow wound, his heart skipped a beat.

These days, the most dangerous wound is an arrow wound.

Countless celebrities have died from injuries caused by stray arrows.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just take Liu Bang, the first emperor of Han Dynasty, who was accidentally hit by a stray arrow when he was suppressing Ying Bu’s rebellion. He eventually died shortly after suppressing Ying Bu’s rebellion due to the serious injury.

In fact, after being shot by an arrow, the chance of dying on the spot is very slim unless the arrow hits a vital part.

However, when treating the injury, because there is no anesthetic or anesthetic is very scarce, one must first endure the pain and pull out the arrow. The arrowhead usually has a barb, so when pulling the arrow out, a large piece of flesh will be torn off.

In the absence of a strong hemostatic agent, people usually resort to using traditional methods such as wood ash to stop bleeding. You can imagine how dangerous this is.

Even if the bleeding is stopped, without antibiotics and awareness of disinfection, there is a high probability of wound infection if the wound occurs in a dirty and messy place such as a battlefield.

If by chance there is no infection, the arrowheads, as a large-volume consumable, cannot be well maintained and are likely to rust. Since arrows have penetrating properties, the wounds are generally deep, which can lead to tetanus. In ancient times when there was no tetanus vaccine, this would be fatal.

So being hit by a stray arrow is extremely dangerous!
After hearing this news, Bao Long could no longer sit still. He stood up and said, "No, even if the lord stops me today, I will go to see what happened to the general!"

Having said that, he was about to leave impulsively.

Now it was Wei Yan's turn to remain calm.

Quick-witted, he grabbed Bao Long and said, "You are anxious, but the lord is even more anxious than you!"

"You're not a doctor. If you go, it will only cause trouble. Why bother going?"

"My lord will naturally make the arrangements, just wait patiently!"

Bao Long admitted that what Wei Yan said made sense, but he really couldn't sit still!

I thought that since I couldn't disturb the general's rest, I might as well go and ask Liu Bei about the situation!

Anyway, this is not something shameful. I am just worried about the general's condition.

He immediately left Wei Yan and said, "I'll go ask the lord."

After saying this, he ran away without giving Wei Yan any chance to hold him back.

However, Bao Long went all the way to Liu Bei's tent, and naturally no one dared to stop him. Now Bao Long was considered to be quite well-known in the army, and most people did not dare to stop him.

He walked straight to the big tent before being stopped.

After reporting it, Liu Bei appeared as expected.

Just by looking at his face, one could tell that Liu Bei also looked very haggard.

His eyes were sunken, revealing obvious dark circles, and it was obvious that he had been staying up all night for several days.

He was also startled and said, "My lord, please take care of yourself."

As he said this, he could not help but express his intention: "My Lord, I came to disturb you because I am concerned about General Xing's safety. Can you please tell me whether our general is in danger of death?"

The plan of faking death must be realistic.

Since it has to be realistic, the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Although I know it will make Bao Long worried, it will only last for a few days.

He sighed heavily and said, "Well, it depends on the doctor's treatment. It's just..."

"Anyway, just go back and wait for news."

Although he didn't finish his words, as soon as the word "but" came out, Baolong suddenly softened.

Could it be that the situation is extremely critical? Why is my lord so hesitant to speak?

General
I’m afraid it won’t work!
Thinking of this, Bao Long ignored the etiquette and saw Liu Bei was about to turn around and go back to the tent. He grabbed his sleeve and said, "My lord, please explain it clearly!"

But this is exactly the effect Liu Bei wanted, so how could he explain it clearly?

But he pulled hard, waved away the soldiers who were about to come up, and said with his back turned: "It's not that I don't understand, but the doctor can't explain it clearly at the moment, so I can only wait for news."

After saying this, he suppressed his emotion, not looking at Bao Long again, and hurried back to the tent.

But he didn't notice that the previous tug-of-war between him and Bao Long had caused a letter that he had been hiding in his sleeve to fall out.

Bao Long felt helpless when he saw that Liu Bei ignored him.

Although he was born a hunter and no one would blame him for not knowing the rules sometimes, but even a fool would know that it was not okay to rush into the lord's tent again.

Now that Liu Bei is not around, he can only feel depressed.

Just when I was feeling depressed, I suddenly found the letter that Liu Bei had dropped.

Thinking it was an important confidential letter, he hurried over to pick it up. But when he took a quick glance at it, he saw a few big words that shocked him so much that the hairs on his body stood up.

The letter read: "Yufeng: All good things in life must come to an end. After I am gone, you should live a good life. My lord will arrange everything for me."

When he saw the first line of words, Bao Long's hands began to tremble.

He swallowed hard before continuing to read.

"Don't be sad. I sacrificed my life for the great cause of the Han Dynasty. After my death, many people will remember my heroic deeds and know that your husband is a hero of the world!"

"If you still have difficulties, it is inconvenient to tell the lord, you can find Han Sheng or General Bao Long, they can handle everything."

"Don't worry, take care."

Suicide note!
This is obviously the last letter General Xing wrote to his sister-in-law!
From this perspective, General Xing must have known that he was in danger of death when he went to the battle, otherwise how could he have left behind such a suicide note?

Bao Long suddenly became very anxious and uneasy. He subconsciously took the letter and went back alone with a heavy heart.

Three days later, the news that Xing Daorong died in the military camp due to his injuries spread throughout the camp and began to spread in all directions.
