Chapter 13: Early Spring (3)

Li Yuanfang then realized it and said self-deprecatingly: "So that's it... Humph, I'm actually most afraid of seeing this box. Every time I use it, I'm in a mess, and I really don't have the mood to appreciate its benefits. However, this box was not given by the emperor, but by the adults." Di Jinghui nodded meaningfully: "That must have been given to my father, and he gave it to you again." Then, he smiled and said: "Yo, I didn't expect you to say the word "fear". I thought you were really fearless." Li Yuanfang shook his head and sighed, pondered for a moment, and then said: "No one is fearless. Let me tell you the truth, since the day we followed Wu Xun into Shatuochi, I have been afraid, especially when I found that there was almost no water that night, and when Lu Jia shot archery at you today..."

Di Jinghui was stunned for a moment, and then relieved: "You don't have to be afraid now, right?" Li Yuanfang frowned and said, "You can take a breath for the time being... I can't say it well, there must be many secrets and even murderous intent hidden in Yibotai. My feeling is not very good." Di Jinghui looked at Li Yuanfang's expression with attention and smiled easily: "Well, don't worry too much. I think it should be fine for a while. After all, we should be considered auspicious people to have their own appearance." "I hope so."

Han Bin bandaged Li Yuanfang's wound and picked up a silver medicine box from the table to play. Di Jinghui remembered something and pointed to the box and said, "Oh, it doesn't matter if the medicine is used up. We can go to Tingzhou to find medicinal materials to grind and match them. I will keep this, it is better than the emperor's medicine." Li Yuanfang nodded, gently hugged Han Bin's shoulder, and said seriously: "I regret bringing you, kid, now. I should have left you in Luoyang at the beginning." Han Bin broke free from Li Yuanfang's arms and stuck out his tongue at him indifferently.

Li Yuanfang frowned: "I mean it's true. I'll find a way to send you back in a few days." Han Bin supported his head on the table and stared at him for a while before he said firmly: "No, I won't leave! You can't do it without me!" Di Jinghui laughed and advised: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, sleep first, and discuss who is not allowed when you wake up!"

After the evening, the storm finally stopped. Wu Xun slept soundly all afternoon, and after waking up, he ate a soaked bun and drank a few big bowls of goat milk. After all, he was a person with a strong foundation. He felt very good at this moment and his physical strength had basically recovered. There was still some time before he had dinner. The Yibotai camp plate was quiet. After the sudden change in the morning, everyone seemed to have not woken up completely, and they were still lying and waiting for something.

Wu Xun left the barracks alone and slowly wandered around the wooden wall. Yibotai is isolated from the world and remote. Even the veteran Han Navy officer like Wu Xun had only been to Yibotai for two or three times before, and had never gone deeper inside. When Lu Jia received Wu Xun four days ago, he pushed him to see the external barracks. Today, Wu Xun himself was full of curiosity about everything inside the wooden wall. Lu Jia was dead, but his shadow did not dissipate. Everything here was left with the mark he had been operating here for many years. Wu Xun knew that if he wanted to truly take over Yibotai and transform it into a base for suppressing bandits, he still had a lot to do.

Thinking about it, Wu Xun turned around the wooden wall and almost hit the person coming towards him. The man quickly flashed to the side and greeted: "Person Wu." Wu Xun looked up and Li Yuanfang was smiling and bowing to him.

"Ah, it's Li Zhengwei." Wu Xun hurriedly replied, but his face could not hide his embarrassment. Since they were rescued by Li Yuanfang in the wolf pack, they have been in a critical state. Wu Xun never had time to formally thank Li Yuanfang, nor did he explain his behavior of leaving Li Yuanfang and the others in the desert. At this moment, the two suddenly met in pairs, and Wu Xun couldn't tell what it felt.

"Person Li, why don't you rest in the barracks?" Wu Xun calmed down and greeted casually. "It's been resting." Li Yuanfang's answer was as concise as ever. Wu Xun said "Oh", but he didn't know what to say next. Seeing Li Yuanfang standing in front of him with a calm face, Wu Xun couldn't help but feel upset, and his temper rose, so he simply went straight to the point: "Person Li, Wu Xun apologized for you!" He did not look at the other party's expression and continued to be anxious.

He said hurriedly: "Wu Xun left Li Zhengwei and Master Di, you on the banks of the Asuguer River. He was really worried that Yi Botai's situation was dangerous. He was afraid that you would follow him and it would be difficult to control the situation, so he came up with this bad plan... After that, Wu Xun was trapped in the wolves and couldn't take it at his own expense. Although it was not intentional, it also implicated you in danger. It was not Wu Xun's original intention. I hope that Li Zhengwei would be large in number, so don't take it to heart!" After saying this, Wu Xun sighed and looked at Li Yuanfang with his fists.

Li Yuanfang smiled faintly and said calmly: "Person Wu, you are too worried. Since the matter is over, there is no need to mention it again. After this battle, you and I will meet again in sincerity in the future so that we can work together in Yibotai to complete the task of suppressing bandits." "That's natural!" Wu Xun claimed yes, but couldn't help but mutter: Why is this Li Yuanfang not even polite? He is so powerful when he speaks. After all, I, Wu Xun, is still a full-time job! Thinking of this, Wu Xun's face was a little cloudy again.

Wu Xun was still thinking about it in his heart. Li Yuanfang looked up at the high wooden wall. The tips of the knife on the tops of the walls were intertwined like dog teeth. The sunlight at dusk smashed on the uneven blades, splashing out golden beads. Li Yuanfang turned his head and asked Wu Xun: "Person Wu, when will we go to prison for inspection?" Wu Xun replied calmly: "Don't worry. It's late tonight, everyone should have a good gathering at night. I have already told Pan Huo Chang to take you and me to the prison for inspection tomorrow. Among the four fire chiefs, Pan Huo Chang is the oldest and has served in Yibotai for many years. He is also the chief officer. He is the most familiar with all the affairs in the prison."

"Oh, that's great." Li Yuanfang agreed, turned around and stared at Wu Xun, and suddenly asked, "Person Wu, is there any holiday between Pan Huochang and Lu Jia?" "Ah?" Wu Xun was stunned: "This... I don't know much." After thinking about it, I felt strange, so I asked, "Why did Captain Li come here to ask?"

Li Yuanfang replied calmly: "It's nothing. Yesterday he took the risk to take me to save you. I was very surprised, so I asked him the reason. He only said that he hated Lu Jia to the core and wanted to use your and my strength to get rid of Lu Jia." "So that?" Wu Xun thought: "I only know that Pan Dazhong was once a slave to Qian Guinan, the governor of Tingzhou. Later, he offended Guo Qian for some reason and was sent to this place where birds do not shit. As for how he made enemies with Lu Jia, I'm afraid he would ask him for details." Seeing Li Yuanfang silent, Wu Xun couldn't help but add another sentence: "Lifeguard Li, Lu Jia is brutal and lewd, and the outsourcing team here has long been dissatisfied with him. I saw him harming me these days... With you, Pan Huochang is justified, and it is reasonable to reach out for help." In the words, he seemed a little angry.
