Chapter Four: Pastoral Life

The gurgling stream is a sparse forest. The branches are bare and the new buds have not yet grown, making it look extremely lonely. Two bay-red horses lowered their necks to draw water and snorted happily. Not far away is a small forest.

Barren fields and thatched cottages, and a little further away is a large car. The light mist in the early morning seems to have cast a veil here. A strong man wearing a patched rag is holding a big knife.

Chopping firewood in a courtyard surrounded by a bamboo fence.

A voice came from the thatched cottage: "Cao Ren, is the medicine ready?"

The big man in the courtyard reluctantly put down his knife and mumbled, "It's almost time."

This is still in Xuzhou. Gao Jin has been here for six days. After capturing Cao Ren, he found a deserted thatched cottage to live in. While practicing martial arts, he healed Lu Wanjun's injuries. Every morning, Gao Jin took Cao Ren to the mountains to gather food.

Medicine, here he discovered many medicinal herbs and nourishing fruits that were not available in later generations. These are all very beneficial to Gao Jin's Qi training. Only then did Gao Jin understand why those internal practitioners chose to practice in the mountains, but where would they be in later generations?

There are also pure lands for cultivation, but in ancient times, there were paradises everywhere.

Lu Wanjun woke up from a coma for three days. Due to proper treatment, her color has gradually returned. The most pitiful thing is Cao Ren. He tried to escape twice, but Gao Jin caught him every time. Gao Jin specially equipped a

He planted herbs that made horses weak, and Gao Jin had excellent hearing and was always alert. Once Cao Ren left the courtyard, he could immediately detect it. It was a pity that Cao Ren, a famous general, ended up in this situation.

Gao Jin now wakes up before dawn every day to adjust his breath and practice Qi. He drinks a bowl of medicinal soup in the morning and eats some wild fruits. Then he takes Cao Ren up the mountain to collect herbs. He comes back at noon to practice some Emei sect Kungfu. At the end of the day, Gao Jin

Have begun to adapt to this era.

After Lu Wanjun woke up, she had been depressed, and the same was true for Gao Jin. Gao Jin knew that she still missed Xiapi, so he rarely talked to her.

In the thatched cottage, Gao Jin was sitting cross-legged on a mat made of thatch. After circulating his Qi for several weeks, he stood up energetically. He walked to the bed made of straw not far away and smiled at Lu Wanjun.

: "Are you feeling better today?"

Lu Wanjun closed her eyes. In fact, she had woken up a long time ago. It was just inconvenient to wake up. There was only one room in the thatched cottage. Cao Ren slept in the courtyard, while Gao Jin and Lu Wanjun slept in the back room. This was not because Gao Jin sincerely wanted to take advantage. It was really

In order to heal his wounds and facilitate care, but he is a man after all, and it is always awkward when men and women are in the same room. Lu Wanjun resisted at first, but after a few days, she gradually became familiar with it. At first, she was attracted to Gao

Jin was still a little grateful. Later, Gao Jin left her and left, and I'm afraid she also had some feelings of hatred. When she woke up again and saw this familiar face, she felt quite complicated. Now she lives with Gao Jin.

In a room, Lu Wanjun really didn't know how to face it.

"Yeah." Lu Wanjun snorted: "After a good sleep, my energy has recovered a bit. Are you still going to collect medicine today?"

Gao Jin said: "Let's take a look. The sky is gloomy today. There may be a heavy rain."

Lu Wanjun bit her lip and was silent for a moment: "Brother Gao, you saved me. I will be grateful forever, but...but my parents are still in Xiapi. Can you go find out some news for me?"

, she was still worried about Xiapi.

Gao Jin smiled: "I'm afraid this won't work. We still have things to do and can't spare the time."

Lu Wanjun was full of disappointment and sighed.

Gao Jin coughed and continued: "Why bother asking for information? I have already thought about it. If the weather is fine today, we will go to Xiapi at noon."

Lu Wanjun looked at Gao Jin in disbelief: "Isn't it that Xiapi City has been surrounded by Cao's army? Go now..."

Gao Jin smiled mysteriously, and pointed through the window to Cao Ren, who was lying outside making medicine and blowing fire: "With our General Cao, are we still afraid that we won't be able to enter Xiapi?"

Lu Wanjun was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: "General Cao is really capable. He can collect medicine, boil medicine, and cut firewood to burn crops. This time I have to rely on him to go to Xiapi. When I see my father, I will definitely call him in the future."

You showed mercy when you met General Cao on the battlefield, and you should always remember your great kindness." When she heard that she was going to Xiapi, her heart became excited. Even her body seemed to be a few percent better, and her mood became cheerful.

At this time, Cao Ren, shirtless and huffing and puffing, came over with a boiling hot medicinal soup and placed it on the table beside the bed. He glanced at Gao Jin with disapproval and said with a bad attitude: "The medicine is ready.

.”

Seeing Cao Ren who was confused, Lu Wanjun couldn't help but laugh. This was the first time she laughed in front of Gao Jin. She was half sitting on the couch, with a pair of slender hands and fair skin, and her black hair was fluffy and fair.

Her face and soft skin, her eyebrows curved like a painting when she smiled, and her clear eyes sparkled like stars. They were fresh and refined, making Gao Jin's eyes shine.

Cao Ren said dissatisfied: "What are you laughing at? Why are you laughing? Although I am captured, I would rather die than not be laughed at by you."

Gao Jin couldn't help but smile and said: "There is no need to collect herbs today. Go and tidy up the place, get in the car, and we will go to Xiapi after noon."

"Go to Xiapi!" Cao Ren couldn't turn around for a while, wondering what this weird Gao Jin was thinking.

Gao Jin said with a straight face: "Just go if I tell you to, there is so much trouble."

Cao Ren left bitterly. He was still a little afraid of Gao Jin. This Gao Jin seemed to be full of weirdness, so he didn't dare to be careless.

Lu Wanjun looked at the medicinal soup and raised her eyebrows: "Brother Gao, can you not drink this medicinal soup?"

Gao Jin said: "If you don't drink the medicinal soup, how will your injury heal?" He stopped talking and went to the straw mat in the corner to cross his legs to recuperate.

The reason why Gao Jin made this decision was because he really had no way to go. The whole world was in turmoil and everyone was involved in the dispute. How could he stay out of it? Instead of doing this, it would be better to satisfy Lu Wanjun's wish. As for Gao Jin after entering the city,

Jin was not worried. With his skills, even if Xiapi was attacked by Cao's army, he would be able to protect himself. "Just think of it as sending Buddha to the west." Gao Jin sighed inwardly, and then fell into a state of fugue.
