TVSWWD - Chapter 140 - Dilemma of Liaozhou City

 When Murong Yun had almost finished the porridge, Sister Mu came over with the medicine box and was surprised when she saw Murong Yun who could already get out of bed.

Although she had seen the wound when she was carried back yesterday, and it was true that it was a flesh wound, the wound was close to the bone. Logically speaking, it would be difficult to even sit up to drink porridge, let alone get out of bed.

But looking at Murong Yun's face, she was quite energetic.

"Miss Lei, shall I check your pulse?"

She stayed with Murong Yun until midnight yesterday, originally to prevent her severe injuries from causing a high fever. Yet, as dawn approached, there were no signs of abnormalities, and she slept soundly.

In short, this Miss Lei is really the strongest person she has encountered in all her years.

Murong Yun naturally would not refuse. Although she was also surprised that her injuries healed so quickly, there were many extraordinary things in this world. Not to mention others, a person like her who had reached the seventh level of cultivation could live for several hundreds of years if there were no accidents.

Sister Mu, who is taking her pulse and feeling theabundant wood spiritual energy in the veins in Murong Yun's body, was even more shocked.

"It's amazing! The spiritual energy within the young lady's body is so abundant that your injuries might heal in less than two days."

Sister Mu sighed. Originally, she was thinking of changing Murong Yun's dressing, but now it seems she doesn't need to.

Therefore, she took out some specially made blood-producing pills from the wooden box and handed them to Murong Yun.

According to her view, even without the aid of these pills, there would be no problem at all given this person's physique.

Murong Yun didn't realize that her physique was no longer in the ranks of human beings in the eyes of outsiders, but it didn't matter as long as the injury healed quickly, she was in a hurry to go to Liaozhou City.

Besides, Hua Le has been away from home for so long and must be missing her family a lot...

"Sister Mu, since that is the case, I have to leave with Hua Le the day after tomorrow."

Murong Yun said this while touching Hua Le's face and she was looking up at her, with joy in her eyes. The little girl was indeed smart, and she knew as soon as she heard that she was going to take her back to Liaozhou City.

"Ms. Lei, are't you being a little too anxious to leave? I see that you have lost a lot of blood. Although you have a good physique, you still need to be nourished and recuperate. After all girls are generally more delicate."

Sister Mu shook her head and started to persuade her. Shui Changming told her that this girl Lei was seriously injured in taking the risk in robbing food for the Water Village. She should be called a 'hero among women'.

Therefore, she really treats this girl as one of her own, and considering the kindness she received, she felt that  she deserves to be served in the water village for the rest of her life.

Not to mention......

"Miss, you may not know, but as early as a couple of days ago, a brother who went to scout and gather information sent word back. The situation in Liaozhou City is not good, and it is impossible to go there."

Sister Mu frowned as she thought about the contents of the letter. As a citizen of Nanchu, she was very anxious when she saw that Liaozhou City was in trouble. To be fair, of course it is better to hold on, so that those Pingyun beasts who burns, kills and loots would not be able to come in.

If that day really comes, It might be inevitable to move along with the brothers of Water Village.

Not good? When Murong Yun heard this news, her heart sank. Although by calculating the time, it would still be a while before Hua Yan and his wife sacrifices themselves for the city.

But the plot in this book has gradually shifted due to her efforts. The war with Pingyun Kingdom had already advanced, and perhaps under the butterfly effect the storyline might also accelerate.

The more Murong Yun thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility. She felt anxious and wanted to fly directly to Liaozhou City to see what happened.

At this point there was no longer time to spare. Murong Yun frowned and said directly: "In that case, I'm afraid we have to leave tomorrow."

Sister Mu looked helpless at the person who turned anxious after listening to her advice. She didn't know what was going on in Liaozhou City that made her so worried.

"But Miss Lei, I heard that the enemy army has been besieging Liaozhou City for several days. I am afraid that the people in the city will be in dire straits. If Miss Lei goes, not to mention porridge, even grass roots will not be available."

After hearing this, Murong Yun's face became even more anxious. Calculating the days she estimates that in four or five days, the supplies from Longchuan would arrive. At this time, Liaozhou City is besieged. Wouldn't the supplies be directly intercepted by the thieves of Pingyun Kingdom?

That was a total of 180,000 troops. Once surrounded, the people in Liaozhou City would be unable to escape even if they grow wings and fly!

We fought tooth and nail, risking our very lives to seize back a mere thousand dan of grains. Longchuan's grain reserves are not mere thousands, they are fifty thousand dan of grains! This means we're sacrificing ourselves to strengthen the enemy!

Either way...this dilemma must be solved.

After hearing the news, Hua Le was so anxious that she almost burst into tears. Seeing Murong Yun's grim expression, she was even more worried that she might be willing to send her back under such circumstances.

She sniffed quickly and said, "Sister Lei, I know a secret passage we can go through. Please, you must send me back."

Although she was young and knew the dangers there, she couldn't leave her mother, brother and father behind knowing the danger there.

Even if it means death, she would still want to go back.

When Murong Yun saw Hua Le's eyes dropped golden beads, she realized that her expression might have frightened her. She quickly smiled, wiped the tears on her little face with her sleeves, and comforted her by saying:

"Don't be afraid. Sister will definitely send you back to Liaozhou City. We will go there tomorrow!"

If the secret passage mentioned by Hua Le is really hidden, it might not be a bad option.

Seeing that Murong Yun couldn't be persuaded, Sister Mu shook her head helplessly. Although Miss Lei was powerful, she still couldn't bring herself to believe in her.

But since she insists on going, all she could do was help her prepare more things.

Having made the decision, After Sister Mu went to prepare, Murong Yun sent Hua Le to look for A'Xuan, the free bodyguard, and inform him that they would set off early tomorrow morning.

As for herself, she went to bed and meditated, trying to recover as much from her injuries as possible before departure.

"Leaving tomorrow?"

A'Xuan, who was mingling with the people in the water village and fishing with them by the lake, looked at Hua Le who had come over to find him. He was quite reluctant to leave when he heard her mention leaving.

Originally, he thought that based on the girl's condition, he could stay in this interesting water village for a little longer.

But I never thought that the she would be so anxious.

When Hua Le saw him like this, he even didn't forget to hold the fishing rod in his hand. He looked like a playful neighbor's child... She knew that this person was just after the fun here.

It is strange that such a grown man was like this, even when he was in Liaozhou City. As soon as he woke up after his injuries, when he could get out of bed, he ran all over the house. Later, when he was able to leave the house, he ran all over the city.

He could strike up a conversation with any aunt or uncle, as if he had never seen the world before.

Thinking of this, Hua Le warned with some maturity: "Even if tomorrow, Liaozhou City is besieged. I must hurry back to see my mother. You can't delay!"

After hearing this, A'Xuan frowned slightly behind the mask. In fact, he knew that Liaozhou City is under siege. Even when he came out, it had already been besieged for many days. It was only because the General's wife who told him about the secret passage in the city that he could easily come out.

She originally entrusted him to find his daughter, but after finding her, he was asked to send her to the General's Mansion in Liujing, the capital of Nanchu Kingdom, instead of sending her back to the perilous Liaozhou City.
