Asking for a divorce on the way to exile, finding a husband is a great pleasure

Chapter 59 Can you sell me a bottle of that medicinal oil?

Shen Yitian just said this, and the prisoners started shouting that they all wanted to take a bath.

But the post station was so small that they couldn't live separately and had to live in a room with a large bunk bed.

There were even people who couldn't afford the money. They couldn't even get a bed to sleep in, and could only eat the steamed bread provided by the court.

When we were on the mountain, everyone was looking forward to going down.

But after coming down the mountain, these people who had no money realized that they could only have a steamed bun for each meal.

In the end, Yuan Dutou didn't even ask the waiter to boil water for everyone. Aside from Shen Yitian, who had been promised on the mountain, and the officers, the other prisoners could only use a basin of hot water for a simple wash.

When the waiter bought clothes for Shen Yitian, everyone's envy and jealousy of Shen Yitian reached a new level.

But Shen Yitian still couldn't go upstairs to take a bath as she wished, because the hunter came back again.

Not only did he come back, he was also carrying a huge food box.

Probably because Shen Yitian was sitting in the corner, he looked around after entering the hall before walking towards Shen Yitian, making Shen Yitian think that he was looking for someone else.

"I brought some food here, try it." He put the food box casually on the table and took out a piece of silver.

"Did you give this money?"

Shen Yitian pulled a strand of hair guiltily, played with it casually in her hand for a few times, and then threw the hair back.

"It's just a token of my gratitude for carrying so many tools up the mountain. Please don't despise it."

The hunter snorted, and Shen Yitian couldn't tell whether he was laughing or angry.

"There's still some money left from the money you gave me. Take this back."

After saying that, he sat down opposite Shen Yitian and took out a few bowls and plates, as well as a bowl of soup from the lunch box.

"I just made this. I was short on time, so I made it a little casually. Try it. If you like it, have more."

His attitude was actually much better than when he was on the mountain.

Shen Yitian was a little confused, but the food he cooked smelled delicious. Shen Yitian paused, then picked up her chopsticks and tasted the food he brought.

Well, it tastes really good, just as delicious as the grilled fish and chicken she had eaten in the mountains.

"What kind of meat is this?" Shen Yitian picked up another piece of meat and put it into her mouth, asking with great interest.

"It's venison. This is the smoked venison left over from the winter. We were afraid we wouldn't have enough time to cook it if it was freshly slaughtered, so we made this." The hunter whispered.

The more patiently and softly he explained, the more Shen Yitian felt that something was wrong with him.

"You made a special trip, not just to bring me food, right?" She picked up another dish with chopsticks and put it into her mouth. Hmm, that should be rabbit meat, and it seemed to be smoked as well. It tasted really good.

The hunter smiled and said, "I can't hide it from you. I came to see how your foot is. When we were going down the mountain earlier, I saw that you didn't seem to be in much pain when you walked."

"Yes, it's much better. Thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I would probably still be in pain for a few more days." Shen Yitian thought of this and suddenly felt that the money she gave was too little.

Someone even treated her feet, how could she have forgotten about it?

"Actually, have you ever considered that it's not my medical skills that are good?" The hunter laughed a little: "I just straightened the sprain and rubbed the bruise, but it won't heal so quickly."

"Ah?" Shen Yitian was stunned. She looked at the person opposite her stupidly, not knowing what he meant for a moment.

"Your medicinal oil should be very effective." The hunter said.

Shen Yitian paused for a moment and suddenly realized.

Oh, it turns out that it was the medicated oil combined with his kneading that made it heal so quickly!

"Thank you very much." She smiled and took a sip of the soup. It was a simple minced meat and vegetable soup, but it tasted very sweet.

"You're welcome. I came here to ask if you have any extra medicinal oil."

After talking for so long, I finally got to the point.

When the hunter asked about the medicinal oil, Shen Yitian visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

When someone who doesn't talk much suddenly starts to get friendly with you, to be honest, it can be quite frightening.

If he didn't explain his purpose, Shen Yitian would always feel that he was plotting against her, and even such delicious food would not taste good to her.

"You made a special trip just for the medicinal oil, right?" Shen Yitian had an expression that said, "I see through you."

The hunter also smiled frankly: "Yes, this medicinal oil looks very useful, I want a bottle."

Shen Yitian didn't think much about it. She just thought that this hunter went up the mountain to hunt all year round, and it was inevitable that he would sprain and fall. This medicinal oil was indeed useful for him.

"That's no problem. I'll give you a bottle." She said generously.

The hunter's pupils suddenly shrank and he stared at her in astonishment.

"Your medicinal oil is not from the Western Regions. Do you have a lot of it?" he asked in a low voice.

Although trade was now widespread, wars between nations continued, and the trade routes were not peaceful. The roads to the Western Regions were especially troubled, not only by war but also by the extremely dangerous terrain.

Shen Yitian blinked: "It's not much, but giving you a bottle is not a problem."

The hunter was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.

"I'll buy a bottle. Also, this thing of yours wasn't easy to come by, so you can't show it to others easily."

Although the medicated oil is not priceless, medicine for bruises and injuries is not cheap, especially when the effect is so good.

If I take it out, it might get her into trouble.

Of course Shen Yitian also knew this. She originally didn't take the medicinal oil seriously, but now when she heard the hunter say this, she immediately took note of it.

"Okay, I remember that. But, considering that I gave you the medicated oil, can you do me a favor?" She continued eating and asked casually.

"You say." The hunter was very straightforward.

"Where did you buy that pie? Could you please buy me some more? I'll need it as rations during my exile. The more the better. Also, could you please ask someone to pass on a message for me?"

She told the hunter about Grandma Li's appearance and the location of the post station where they were supposed to meet. Then she said, "Please send a message to her and ask her to wait for me at the next post station we'll pass by."

They had been trapped on the mountain for several days and had not yet descended the mountain according to the original route. Grandma Li must have been very anxious.

She had also inquired and knew that if she continued walking from here, she would not pass the post station that she and Grandma Li had agreed to meet at, so she had to deliver the letter as soon as possible.

Communication is inconvenient these days, so I can only ask someone to pass on messages like this, which is really frustrating.

She originally planned to ask the waiter at the post station to do this, but then she thought that hunters hunt and sell prey all year round and would interact with all kinds of people. Perhaps it would be faster for him to ask someone to do it through a letter, so she spoke up.

After hearing what she said, the hunter agreed without hesitation.

"I'll have someone deliver the letter tomorrow morning, and I'll also send the pie you requested before you leave."

After hearing this, Shen Yitian finally felt relieved.

He casually took out a new bottle of medicinal oil from the space and placed it in the food box without a word. He then pushed the uncovered food box back and said loudly, "Thank you very much. Please deliver the pie I ordered tomorrow. Remember to help me deliver the letter."

The hunter knew that she said this for the other prisoners to hear, so he agreed with her and then left with the food box.

Looking at his back as he left, Shen Yitian couldn't help but think of the pheasants, rabbits and pies that had inexplicably appeared on the mountain before.

If the pie didn't taste different from the one the hunter behind her had, she would have thought that this hunter was the one who had been secretly giving her things.

However, that person hasn't secretly sent anything over in the past two days. I don't know if he went to report the news, or if he was also trapped in the mountains and had nothing to deliver.

If it's the former, that would be great. If it's the latter, now that the road is built, he should be able to go down the mountain.
