Chapter 9 The Story of the Youth in Sushan Cave

The soup is finally ready.

Ala Yanzong poured the medicinal soup into a broken bowl and left it to dry for a while until the medicinal soup was warm and not scalding his mouth.

Wula Zhitao woke up her mother, raised her mother's head, and let her lean against her body.

Ala Yanzong took the medicine bowl and fed Aunt Ula the medicine.

Aunt Wula frowned and shook her head, saying she couldn't swallow it.

With the persuasion of Ala Yanzong and Wula Zhitao, Aunt Wula reluctantly drank half the bowl of soup.

Aunt Ulla lay down on the hay again and fell into a deep sleep.

There is still a lot of medicinal soup in the clay pot.

Alayanzong said to Wula Zhitao: "Let's also drink some. This has a preventive effect."

Ula Zhitao nodded in agreement.

The two of them drank the medicinal soup in the clay pot.

After pouring out the medicine dregs, he washed the clay pot at the mountain spring, filled it with water again, put it on the fire, and continued to boil the water.

Ala Yanzong wanted Aunt Ula to have water to drink whenever she woke up.

The two decided to look for anything useful on the three gangsters.

Ala Yanzong took the torch and lit it, and returned to the three gangsters with Ula Zhitao.

A wine bag was found on the fat bandit's body. Alayanzong shook it and saw that there was still a lot of wine in it. He opened the cork and smelled it to confirm that it was wine.

Ala Yanzong shook his head, knowing that the fat gangster had alcohol on his body, it would have been much more convenient to perform the surgery on Aunt Ula just now.

A money bag was also found on the tall gangster, which contained some gold coins and silver dollars. Alayanzong weighed it and found a lot.

It happened that Alayanzong didn't have much money.

The master did not have any savings. In addition to daily food and clothing, the money he earned from medical consultations was mostly spent on charity, or he would use the money to buy medicinal materials collected by the mountain people.

The tall gangster also had a bag with fried rice in it, which seemed to be their dry food.

A package of dried salted fish was found on the short gangster, and a rope as thick as a little finger was wrapped around his waist, four to five meters long.

One by one, I unpacked their baggage, which basically contained some clothes and cloth shoes.

Alayanzong decided that in addition to the possible use of the above items, he also wanted to take off the culprit's coat, take it to the cave, and spread it on the ground to keep out the moisture.

With the help of Wula Zhitao, after taking off the coat from the short man, Alayanzong discovered that he was actually wearing a military uniform.

Looking at the other two people, they are also wearing military uniforms.

Alayanzong finally understood that these three people were the defenders who had escaped from the city-state of Allah.

They just put on their civilian clothes to cover their military uniforms. The scimitars they used were all uniform sabers.

Alayanzong felt very uncomfortable. This soldier who once guarded the city for the people was so disciplined when he was in the city-state.

Now because of the epidemic and fear of death, they fled the castle.

When soldiers are separated from the constraints of the army, they will also become thieves and gangsters, and become road bullies who harm the common people.

Alayanzong threw the three corpses down the mountain stream. He was worried that the corpses would attract wolves if they were parked here.

The two packed up the machete package and other items and took them back to the cave.

The two Alayanzong people moved the fire in the cave to another place and swept away the ashes in the cave with weeds.

Then spread some firewood on the hot ground, cover it with a layer of gangster's clothes, and lift Aunt Ula on top, so that it would be warmer.

Ala Yanzong and Wula Zhitao gathered around the fire, spread their clothes on both sides, and lay on it.

From time to time, Alayanzong would add some dry wood to the fire to keep the fire from going out.

Although the two were very tired, they were not yet sleepy and chatted quietly.

Alayanzong was two years older than Ulazhitao. When the master took Alayanzong back to the coastal city-state of Allah, Ulazhitao was not yet born.

Master often goes to the mountains to collect medicines and also goes to other people's homes for consultation. It is extremely inconvenient to take Alayanzong with him.

At this time, Aunt Ula was pregnant and it was inconvenient to go out, so she often brought Alayanzong home to take care of her. Therefore, Alayanzong had a deep affection for Aunt Ula.

Even in normal times, when Ala Yanzong's clothes were torn and needed to be mended, Aunt Ula would do it for her.

After Ula Zhitao was born, Alayanzong stayed at Aunt Ula's house almost every day to guard the little sister.

When Wula Zhitao would run around, the two of them would play freely under the leadership of Ala Yanzong.

When Ala Yanzong was five or six years old, he learned to read from his master, and Wula Zhitao was also babbling at the side.

Alayanzong was practicing martial arts in the courtyard, and Ulazhitao was gesticulating gracefully behind him. Alayanzong became Ulazhitao's martial arts instructor.

Later, Ala Yanzong was able to go out alone to collect herbs in the mountains, and the peach of Ula was always his little tail, which he could not get rid of.

When Wula Zhitao became like a big girl at the age of eleven or twelve, she stopped running around with Ala Yanzong.

The two of them can be said to be true childhood sweethearts.

Even if the two of them didn't play together every day, when Ala Yanzong was too busy helping his master make medicine, Wula Zhitao would come over to help.

If Aunt Ula needed help with some strenuous work, Ala Yanzong would go there without any hesitation.

The two families are extremely close because of their children. Master once mentioned to Aunt Wula that they should get married when the two children grow up.

Aunt Ulla and Uncle Ulla also discussed that it would be best to get closer and closer.

However, before the engagement was officially engaged, Master and Wula Zhitao's father passed away.

The death of their relatives made the two children's minds mature rapidly. Before, they were ignorant of the relationship between men and women and did not take it to heart at all.

Now that the two people were talking quietly close to each other, a strange feeling emerged in their hearts.

Ala Yanzong felt that Ula Zhitao was the person he was destined to be closest to.

When they left the city yesterday, if it weren't for taking care of the master, he would have really left with Ula Zhitao.

Now I find that without his protection, Aunt Ula is injured, and I am not sure whether he can be cured, because his medical skills are not as good as his master, and he is just learning from others.

Wula Zhitao has regarded Ala Yanzong as her big brother since she was a child. She will follow him wherever he goes and follow him in whatever he does.

The feeling of being close to each other has always been in her heart, but she never said it out of the girl's shyness.

After escaping from the city yesterday, she felt more and more lonely as she walked. Although her mother was by her side, the loneliness was not something her mother could comfort.
