Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 331: No support from the imperial court; two identical jade pendants

"The war is intense, and the front lines need doctors. I've learned this, so I'll do my best to help."

Xiao Jian nodded: "Swords have no eyes on the battlefield, you...be careful."

Fang Ci nodded.

Fang Ci turned around to leave, but then turned back, took out a handkerchief from her arms and handed it to Xiao Jian.

"Take this handkerchief. If we meet again in the future, I will return it to its original owner."

Xiao Jian took the handkerchief. It was soft to the touch and had a faint scent of medicine from Fang Ci.

Fang Ci set out on the journey to the battlefield. The journey was difficult, but thinking about saving more wounded soldiers, his steps became more determined.

After arriving at the front line, the cries of the wounded were heard everywhere.

Fang Ci immediately started the rescue work, working day and night.

On the other hand, Xiao Jian stroked the handkerchief every day, and his heart was full of worry about Fang Ci.

Finally, he also decided to go to the front line.

When Xiao Jian found Fang Ci, she was exhaustedly stitching up the wounds of a seriously injured soldier.

When Fang Ci saw Xiao Jian, surprise flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Jian walked up to her and whispered, "I'll help you."

After that, Xiao Jian was responsible for protecting Fang Ci and finding medicinal herbs, while Fang Ci concentrated on treating the wounded.

The two supported each other and their feelings gradually warmed up amid the war. As the war situation gradually improved, they became the most important people to each other.

When they were resting at night, Xiao Jian handed Fang Ci the beef jerky he had brought with him: "Eat some."

Fang Ci took it: "Thank you."

"It seems that we are running low on food supplies." Xiao Jian said.

"I have already written a letter, which has been sent back to the capital in an expedited manner, and I hope that the Emperor will see it and send us reinforcements and provisions."

A few days later, a fast horse came to the camp.

The person who came was a messenger from the capital, and Fang Ci hurried to meet him.

However, the news brought by the messenger was not optimistic. The letter said that the emperor was in poor health and had many affairs in the court, so he was temporarily unable to withdraw troops and food to support him.

Fang Ci's face was full of worry after hearing this, and Xiao Jian gently patted her shoulder to comfort her.

"It's okay, let's think of another way. This place is not far from the nearby town, maybe I can go to the town to exchange some food." Xiao Jian said.

Fang Ci hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Xiao Jian set off with the little money he had.

In the small town, Xiao Jian asked around and finally found a farmer who was willing to sell grain.

But the amount of food is limited and the price is high.

Just as Xiao Jian was about to pay, a group of bandits rushed into the town and began to rob the people of their property.

Seeing this, Xiao Jian drew his sword and started fighting with the bandits.

After a hard battle, Xiao Jian repelled the bandits and saved the food.

Xiao Jian returned to the camp with food, and Fang Ci was relieved to see him return safely.

"No matter how difficult the days ahead are, we will be able to get through it as long as we are together." Xiao Jian looked at Fang Ci firmly and said, Fang Ci nodded heavily with red eyes.

After returning to the military camp, Xiao Jian gave Fang Ci a jade pendant: "Take this jade pendant. It is a family heirloom given to me by my mother. It can bless you with safety."

Fang Ci took the jade pendant and her eyes widened immediately: "This jade pendant... I have one too."

Xiao Jian was startled and asked hurriedly, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"

Fang Ci clutched the jade pendant tightly and recalled, "It has been with me since I can remember. It's the only thing left by my biological father."

Xiao Jian's heart began to beat violently, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart.

"Could it be... that we are brother and sister?" Xiao Jian muttered to himself.

Fang Ci was also shocked, and the two looked at each other.
