Doctor Shen said: “Of course, Marshal Wang can fight. Don’t look at his old age, Marshal Wang used to dominate the battlefield and was called the God of War. His royal highness, Prince Jin, was taught by him. His highness treats him as his master on the battlefield. It’s a pity—“
Doctor Shen’s expression was a bit lonely and helpless.
Bai Zhi asked: “What a pity?”
Doctor Shen shook his head, looked up at the blazing sun in the sky and sighed: “This world is like this. Good people don’t last long, while wicked people live for thousands of years. ! ”
As he spoke, Doctor Shen’s emotions began to get a little agitated, and his eyes were filled with anger.
What is he angry about? For whom?
He said that good people don’t live long, is it Hu Feng?
Bai Zhi had so many questions she wanted to ask, but she was afraid to ask. There were some words and things that could not be spoken easily. Doctor Shen's position was not very clear to her.
She really wanted to see this Marshal Wang. Since he was Hu Feng 's master on the battlefield, he has some unusual friendship with him. Otherwise, those wicked generals, will not rush to clean up Zhou Gang and Fu Zheng before he could even come.
Their purpose was so obvious, they don’t want Marshal Wang to know what they did in the military camp in the past 3 years.
It’s just a pity that more than 1 or 2 men were working under Prince Jin. They have spent 3 years to claimed tens of thousands of lives, but there were still tens of thousands of people are still alive. These people were the best living proof.
“Marshal Wang is old but has come all the way here from the capital. He must have suffered a lot. Are we going to check his pulse to see his condition?”
Doctor Shen shook his head: “No, whenever Marshal Wang goes out, he will bring his own military doctor. We don’t need to worry about him.”
Doctor Shen then suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: “I heard that Marshal Wang likes to eat exotic food. If you catch a snake, you can give him a bowl of snake soup.”
When Bai Zhi heard those words, the fire in her heart that had just extinguished was rekindled. She felt grateful to Duan Cheng. If Duan Cheng didn’t insist on catching snakes yesterday, how could she have such an opportunity?
Thinking of this, she immediately rushed to the small tent and woke up Duan Cheng, who had just slept shortly: “Wake up.”
Duan Cheng rubbed his eyes and grumbled in dissatisfaction: “Why? I’m so sleepy!”
Bai Zhi said: “Don’t you want to eat snake soup?”
Duan Cheng narrowed his eyes again and fell back: “I don’t want anything now, I just want to sleep.”
Bai Zhi dragged him up again: “You work so hard last night, just to eat snake soup. So go and get the cage, hurry up!”
Duan Cheng was directly pulled out of the bed. And when his face was covered with cloth towel soaked in cold water, he was fully awakened. He has no way to stop Bai Zhi, so he could only go and collect the cage.
When Duan Cheng came back, he was no longer listless just like when he went out. He jumped off the carriage carrying three cages. Then, he rushed to Bai Zhi and Doctor Shen, shaking the cage like a treasure: “Look, what is this?”
There were 2 to 3 snakes each in the 3 cages.
“So many? Alright ~” Bai Zhi gave Duan Cheng a thumbs up.
Duan Cheng became more proud of himself: “Hurry up, I’m going to eat a big bowl of snake soup now.” He worked so hard, waiting for this moment!
