"His pulse has changed again."

Xiao Yushan looked at his friend and said.

"how is this possible?"

Qiao Xi cried out in surprise.

Apart from falling asleep last night, she had been keeping an eye on him and didn't notice anything unusual.

Asleep? Was it when she was asleep?

Thinking of this, Qiao Xi's face darkened, her eyelids drooped slightly, and she still blamed herself.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yushan realized what had happened and spoke to comfort her, "It's not your fault. When a person's body is tired, you can't do anything. It's us who didn't think it through."

After hearing his friend's words, Shen Qingyan understood and naturally saw Qiao Xi's sadness. However, he was not good at comforting people, so he had to change the subject: "What's the matter? Is it worse than yesterday or less serious than yesterday?"

This is also what Qiao Xi is concerned about now. She raised her eyes to look at Xiao Yushan, waiting for his answer.

Xiao Yushan pursed his lips and said nothing.

But the two knew from his expression and eyes that Xu Yi's condition was not optimistic at the moment.

Xiao Yushan withdrew his hand and said solemnly: "The missing medicines need to be found as soon as possible, otherwise I am worried-"

Having said this, he did not continue, because he knew that even if he did not say it, the two of them would understand what he meant.

Qiao Xi thought about the herbs she took out from the space yesterday. She had wanted to find a suitable reason to make them appear naturally, but now it seemed impossible.

Ignoring the surprised looks of others, she turned around and walked out quickly.

Just when Xiao Yushan and Shen Qingyan didn't understand why she was acting strangely, they saw her coming in with something in her hand.

It was a cloth bag, not very big, but bulging, as if there was something inside.

"This is--"

Xiao Yushan couldn't hold back his temper and asked her first.

Qiao Xi opened the cloth bag swiftly, and the contents were instantly spread out on the table.

He raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Yushan, seemingly clueless: "Military doctor, could you please take a look at these herbs to see if they are useful?"

She naturally knew whether these herbs were usable or not, because she had taken them out from the space herself.

But the reason she said this was because it was a solution she came up with on the spur of the moment that wouldn't immediately arouse their suspicion.

Shen Qingyan didn't know any medical skills and knew very little about medicinal herbs, so he looked at his friend and waited for his answer.

At the same time, I was curious as to how Xu Yi's sister-in-law could come up with so many medicinal herbs in just one night.

Did you have it before, or did you get it last night?

But didn’t she just say that she would stay by Xu Yi’s side? How could she get it then?

Thinking of this, Shen Qingyan looked at Qiao Xi carefully again, as if he wanted to see something from her.

But in the end nothing was found.

Then he heard his friend's surprised voice.

"It works, it really works. These herbs are what I'm looking for."

Xiao Yushan was so happy that he grinned at Qiao Xi, "My dear disciple, where did you get these herbs?"

"It's a long story, military doctor. The most urgent thing now is to quickly make medicine for my brother-in-law."

Qiao Xi avoided the question, firstly because saving Xu Yi was more urgent, and secondly because she needed to think carefully about how to say it.

Then, as Qiao Xi expected, she saw Xiao Yushan shaking his head.

"What else is missing?"

This was asked by Shen Qingyan.

"We are still missing one last ingredient - Chonglou!"

After Xiao Yushan finished speaking, he looked at the two of them and continued, "This medicine is very rare."

Qiao Xi naturally knew where the medicine was through the system navigation, so she said what she had already thought of: "Military Doctor, what does Chonglou look like? Can you draw it?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yushan asked curiously again: "Why, have you seen it?"

Qiao Xi shook her head, then nodded.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yushan became even more curious: "What does this mean?"

Qiao Xi thought for a moment and then slowly gave the reason she had prepared long ago: "The mountain behind Xuliu Village is very large, and there are many things in it. There are also many medicinal herbs. My neighbor Liu Lan can pick a lot of herbs just at the foot of the mountain.

I thought, maybe there is a Chonglou in the back mountain."

"So what if there is one? As you just said, the mountain behind is huge. Even if there is one, it will take a lot of effort to find it, and it's not certain whether we can find it."

Shen Qingyan expressed his opinion.

If there were no system navigation, Qiao Xi would agree with his opinion. But now it is different.

She nodded, first confirming Shen Qingyan's statement, and then gave her own reasons: "I know. But I went to the back mountain to dig wild vegetables before, and I have seen many plants in the mountains. Maybe I have seen them before. So-"

Qiao Xi paused and continued, "Doctor, can you draw it for me? We don't have any other options right now. We can only try our best to save the dying horse, right?"

It has to be said that Qiao Xi's words touched Xiao Yushan's heart.

Shen Qingyan actually seriously considered the possibility of her words.

But before he could make a decision, he saw his friend walk to the table, pick up a pen and start drawing.

It is estimated that Xiao Yushan has some painting skills. The brush seems to be alive in his hands, and his movements are smooth and flowing, and he completes the work in one go.

Looking at the "Chonglou" that had already appeared on the paper, Qiao Xi took it in her hand and examined it carefully.

"Have you seen him in the back mountain?"

Xiao Yushan couldn't wait to ask.

Qiao Xi didn't reply to him immediately, but looked at him for a while, then raised the corners of her lips quickly and gave him a positive answer.

Xiao Yushan and Shen Qingyan were both surprised to hear her answer.

Especially Shen Qingyan almost immediately asked her where she saw it in the back mountain and how long it would take to walk there.

Qiao Xi thought for a moment and then said what she had prepared long ago: "I can't tell you exactly where it is, but I remember the way. If we walk quickly and don't encounter jackals or other wild animals, we can get there in about fifteen minutes."

This time was told to her by the system after navigation.

"You mean you want to go there yourself?"

Shen Qingyan heard the key point from her words.

Josie nodded.

Navigation was inseparable from her, so of course she had to go there herself. Otherwise, the mountain was so vast that they wouldn't be able to find Chonglou even if they searched for a month.

Hearing that she was going, Xiao Yushan frowned in disapproval.

But he also knew that he had no right to make decisions for her.

The only thing he could do now was to go with her and call a few more people to protect her.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yushan looked up at his friend.

Given their relationship, Shen Qingyan knew what he was thinking almost as soon as their eyes met.

He now bears the heavy responsibility given by the emperor and cannot make any mistakes, so he had to nod.

Then he called a few soldiers and ordered them to protect Xiao Yushan and Qiao Xi.

With the previous experience as a lesson, Qiao Xi prepared some water, and then took Xiao Yushan and several soldiers to the back mountain.

"Sir, why do I feel that she is a little unusual?"

Shen Liuguang, who had been standing quietly on the side, suddenly spoke up and expressed his opinion.

Although he did not specify who "she" was, Kuzhu and Shen Qingyan both knew tacitly who this "she" was referring to.
