Chapter 419 Awake
Of course, there are no good medicinal materials in this remote and remote area. The medicine shop in this small town only supplies commonly used medicinal materials for headaches and fever.

The medicine to protect the baby was prepared by him for his daughter-in-law.

Xie Changqing picked up Shalan and took her away. He personally dealt with the aftermath and gave the old doctor money, but also dropped a warning.

If there was a problem with his medicine and Shalan's body also had a problem, then he would definitely not get any good results.

The old doctor was trembling and wiping the sweat from his forehead, begging them not to come back again.

*
Xie Changqing walked with Shalan for another half day, and finally entered a large county town at noon.

There are many traditional Chinese medicine clinics in the city.

The soldiers below went to inquire about it and chose a medical clinic with the best reputation but not that big of a shop.

Normally, queues start to line up at this medical center before dawn in the morning, and by noon, most of the patients have been seen.

Xie Changqing arrived neither early nor late, just when the patient was finished reading, and the famous doctor sitting in the hall was also preparing to go back to rest.

It's just that Xie Changqing's team is really hard to mess with.

They didn't even say anything, and the doctor came back silently and motioned to the waiter on the side to step back.

"Is this girl seeing a doctor?" The famous doctor stretched out his hand and asked, "Check for your pulse."

Xie Changqing took out Shalan's wrist.

The doctor checked the pulse for a moment, frowned and said, "There are signs of miscarriage, but..."

Xie Changqing asked: "But what?"

The famous doctor stroked his beard and said nothing, took a pen to write a prescription, and then handed it to the clerk to prepare medicine and boil it. After that, he met Xie Changqing and said, "This girl can't be troubled anymore. She needs to cultivate herself well for at least half a month."

"Otherwise, if the child is not protected, her body will not be able to hold on."

"So what you're saying is that you can keep her child?"

"Okay." The famous doctor nodded, "As long as you take the medicine now, rest and keep warm as I told you."

Xie Changqing looked at him for a moment, asked someone to pay him, and took Shalan to a chair aside to rest.

There was an inn near the medical center. Xie Changqing didn't like the noise, so he directly ordered someone to book a small inn, and then took Sha Lan and his people to live in it.

The medicine I drink is boiled and delivered every day in the pharmacy.

After the guy who delivered the medicine returned to the hospital, he couldn't help but ask the master: "Master said last time that the girl's pulse was extremely poor. Why could the child be saved?"

"do not know."

The famous doctor stroked his beard and said, "There are always people who can't explain things in this world, and that's the child."

It was clear that the mother was in extremely poor health and was dying, but the child in her belly was fine.

Although there are some signs of slippage, it can be saved.

……

Xie Changqing stopped at the county seat.

Shalan took medicine every day, but she showed no sign of waking up for five days in a row.

Xie Changqing and his party are all men and cannot take care of Shalan personally.

Fortunately, the innkeeper's wife was very enthusiastic and volunteered to take care of him.

Naturally, Xie Changqing was generous and did not shortchange their money.

The lady helped buy clothes and shoes for Shalan. She saw that Shalan didn't look like she was from Qin, but she didn't dare to ask more questions.

On the sixth day, Xie Changqing sat by the lobby window and had lunch, frowning and looking at the passersby outside.

The weather had not improved since he left Yaocheng, so he was traveling very slowly.

After we stopped in this county, the weather seemed to be gradually getting better.

As of today, it has been three days in a row with clear skies.

Xie Changqing couldn't help but laugh sarcastically, what kind of trick was this thief playing... just to make him wait for this woman to catch up and then tie her to him?
"General!"

The confidant came over and handed over his hands: "The people who went to Yaocheng have returned. They have conveyed the order according to the general's instructions. They will patrol the sea and will not let some young people with ulterior motives harass Molan."

Xie Changqing didn't respond and waved him away.At this time, the innkeeper's wife ran down the stairs with a bang, and said with a happy face: "Thank you, Master, that girl is awake!"

Xie Changqing was startled, stood up, lifted his robe and went upstairs.

In the room, Shalan lay quietly on the bed, looking at the clean but unfamiliar top of the bed tent, with a little confusion in her eyes.

She has no memory of how she got here.

When the door opened, she subconsciously looked back. When she saw that the person who came in was Xie Changqing, her pupils shrank, and then her eyes returned to the dull state of a dry well.

Xie Changqing sat beside the bed, "Go and ask the doctor."

The famous doctor in the county was just across the street. He quickly rushed over to check Shalan's pulse and eyeballs, and then said with a smile: "The girl is really a lucky girl. Everything is fine, including the child. Rest." It’ll only take a few days.”

Xie Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his nerves that had been tense for a long time seemed to be loosening.

He signaled for the doctor to be taken away, and the innkeeper's wife also enthusiastically prepared food for Shalan.

Xie Changqing and Sha Lan were the only two people left in the room.

There was nothing but the sound of breathing, and it was eerily quiet.

Xie Changqing was a little unhappy at the silence, but if he just threw up his sleeves and left like this, he didn't seem to want to leave.

After hesitating for a moment, Xie Changqing said coldly: "Don't do such stupid things again in the future."

Shalan didn't respond and looked at the tent ceiling quietly, as if she didn't hear what he said.

Xie Changqing continued: "You are a pregnant woman with no power to tie a chicken. Even if you know a little bit of magic, you are looking for death alone."

"When you feel better, I will send someone to take you back to Yaocheng."

"When the time comes, it's up to you whether you want to stay in Yaocheng or return to Molan."

"Am I talking to you?"

"..."

No matter what Xie Changqing said, Sha Lan always had the same gesture and expression.

He knew she heard it.

She wasn't mute, she just didn't want to pay attention to him.

She was unhappy with him.

She was silently protesting and provoking him.

Xie Changqing's face was gloomy, "Very good, you are fine."

He threw up his sleeves and left, immediately giving the order to set off.

The soldier hesitated and said, "What about her?"

Xie Changqing said coldly: "Let her stay here, leave two people to watch her, and then send her back to Yaocheng."

"But..." The soldier hesitated, feeling that this was not appropriate.

It was just that Xie Changqing was in a very bad mood, and no one dared to say anything.

But just as they were packing their bags and about to set off, Shalan, who was lying motionless on the bed, struggled to get up and walked out.

The two people Xie Changqing left to guard her stopped her and asked her to go back and rest.

But Shallan ignored her and went straight outside.

The two soldiers didn't dare to stop her, but she forced them all the way downstairs to the door of the inn.

Xie Changqing's horse was tied in front of the door, and his luggage was hung on the saddle. He stood beside the horse and was about to get on the horse. When he saw Sha Lan, Xie Changqing raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you want to do again?"

Shalan said nothing and sat on the steps in front of the inn with her bare feet and her knees clasped.

She only glanced at Xie Changqing, but Xie Changqing understood the meaning in her eyes - you go, I will continue to follow.

She will follow again, just like last time.
