Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



Traveling Doctor Liu nodded in satisfaction at Nan Hua's answer. He turned to look at Shan Yu. "And you will be the one to help her tomorrow. I'm already too old and couldn't walk around too much."

Shan Yu: "…" who walked for more than three incense sticks on the mountain trail just a few days ago for herbs?

But he knew that arguing with his Master was just a pointless act. There was no way that he could possibly win against his Master when it came to such an argument. In that case, he would stop saying anything.

After saying a few more things, Traveling Doctor Liu finally left. Because he would stay nearby for the time being, Long Qian Xing prepared him a place within the camp. There were not many people who would actually put up their guard around Traveling Doctor Liu.

It was mostly because they knew very well that Traveling Doctor Liu would not be so unprincipled and would only do his work as a doctor well. At the very least, that was what his reputation had said all these times.

But for the sake of security, there was a limit of where Traveling Doctor Liu could go.

Not that the old man cared either way.

He didn't have much interest to walk around the camp either. It was more fun for him to rest after such a long train of walking in the forest just to reach this camp here.

"You're not allowed to go out today," Long Qian Xing said when he saw Nan Hua was still sitting on the bed.

"Yes, Brother Long." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing somewhat helplessly. She knew her body well and understood that even without medicine, she could recover within a few days. Even if she walked around a bit, it would not affect her that much.

But since these two had been exhorting her so much, she will listen to them.

"It'll be time to rest soon." Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua carefully. When she was talking with Traveling Doctor Liu, he had walked a distance away so that he would not listen to her conversation.

Though, he could still hear bits and pieces even from such a long distance due to his martial arts.

Even if he wanted to block it, he couldn't do it.

"Hua'er, will you come with me tomorrow?"

Nan Hua's eyes flickered as she looked at Long Qian Xing. "I will, Brother Long, but I might not be of much help."

She knew very well that Long Qian Xing would be negotiating with the villagers tomorrow with the condition that she discussed with him not long ago. But she didn't want to participate in the discussion and just wanted to watch.

She had read his way of handling things from the book. But she had never actually seen him doing negotiation that much aside from the time when he came to Xia Mountain back then.

"It's fine. Strategist Mang wouldn't be able to come here that fast. During this time, we just need to be prepared." Long Qian Xing's eyes glinted when he mentioned this matter.

This name was still quite unfamiliar for many people in the world because Strategist Mang rarely showed his face. But Long Qian Xing knew this name and the fact that this man had been helping Prime Minister Lei from time to time.

He could understand that Zhang Xu Kingdom was already in dire situation where they were being pressed, thus Strategist Mang had no other choice but to appear soon. This meant that more and more cards will be exposed from Zhang Xu Kingdom.

"Mhm," Nan Hua nodded. She looked at Long Qian Xing and opened her mouth, "Brother Long, do you…."

Drap! Drap! Drap!

"What are you doing here?"

"Who are you?!"

The sudden yell from the front attracted their attention. At this time, Long Qian Xing already felt like cursing. Just when he was talking with Nan Hua, there were so many interruptions.

First, when he wanted to hear her answer and now when she wanted to ask something.

Great.

Can't they read the atmosphere?

But no matter how annoyed Long Qian Xing was, he still walked to the front of the tent and looked outside. There was an unfamiliar soldier standing there and avoided the attack from his guard effortlessly.

His feet moved lightly to the side and there was not even any waste of energy in his movement in the slightest bit.

The young man raised his head when he sensed Long Qian Xing's gaze and didn't try to attack the guards. From his gesture alone, it was clear that he

"Who are you?" Long Qian Xing asked, his tone was low.

"This one is Si," Nan Si replied. He didn't proceed to tell the rest because he didn't know what name Nan Hua used when she came here. It took him a long time to retrace Nan Hua's path and found out that she had come here.

After telling Fei Mao about this, he rushed over first in order to check on Nan Hua's condition.

Si?

Long Qian Xing's eyes deepened and he stepped back, turning his head to look at Nan Hua who had stood up at one point. He guessed that this man should be one of Nan Hua's men from the way it looked like.

After all, he didn't have anyone with the name Si around.

"I'm fine, you may go back, Si." Nan Hua's voice traveled from the tent. It was clear that she had no intention of appearing.

Nan Si's eyes brightened slightly when he heard Nan Hua's voice. He bowed and then walked away.

The guards around the tent looked at Long Qian Xing and then at the young man before cupping their fist and bowed down. They didn't know who that man was, but they could guess that he should be someone whom Long Qian Xing knew and approved.

Long Qian Xing closed the entrance and looked at Nan Hua deeply. "Si?"
