Chapter 211
Xiao Changyou had made up his mind this time. Li Xia neither stopped him nor helped. Everything depended on Qiu Ling's choice.
Qiu Chan was quite happy. To get Qiu Chan to put in a good word for him, Xiao Changyou bought many delicious treats for her when they arrived. On Qiu Ling's instructions, Qiu Chan accepted the food but didn't say a single nice word.
However, Xiao Changyou soon had no time, as Lu XuanNing gave him an important task.
In a dream, Lu XuanNing saw Li Xia suggesting that military medics should no longer go to the battlefield, and that brave and meticulous soldiers should learn basic nursing knowledge to care for patients. This would free up doctors' time to treat more critically ill patients.
After waking up, Lu XuanNing immediately arranged for people to implement this idea. But it would take time to train nursing staff capable of handling large numbers of casualties on the battlefield.
In the past few years, they had only trained less than 20 people, and now with the war, they needed more nursing staff and doctors. Lu XuanNing discussed this matter with Xiao Changyou and Li Xia.
Li Xia hadn't expected Lu XuanNing to have such ideas. This wasn't the nursing knowledge from the apocalyptic world.
Xiao Changyou liked Lu XuanNing's proposal. However, training people who knew nothing about this would take a long time. Xiao Changyou suggested recruiting apprentices from medical clinics. They had learned quite a bit of medical knowledge from following doctors and could start working after simple training.
The army couldn't delay, so Lu XuanNing entrusted this task to Xiao Changyou. Xiao Changyou promised to do it well. After Xiao Changyou left, Lu XuanNing still faced away from Li Xia, not daring to speak.
"Have you thought about what to say?" Li Xia walked in front of Lu XuanNing, staring into his eyes.
Lu XuanNing looked at Li Xia, "I didn't mean to hide this from you. Sit down and let me explain in detail." Lu XuanNing helped Li Xia sit down and told her everything he had dreamed while lying unconscious in bed.
The past life Lu XuanNing described was very similar to the one Li Yao had mentioned. Combining the two, it could be confirmed that the Li Xia from their past lives was indeed herself.
"You've kept this secret for quite a while," Li Xia snorted lightly.
Seeing that Li Xia didn't doubt his words, Lu XuanNing felt slightly relieved. "Xia Xia, this is the last thing I've hidden from you. There's nothing else I'm keeping from you."
"You've said that before," Li Xia was skeptical of Lu XuanNing's words.
"Xia Xia, this is the last time, I promise." Lu XuanNing held Li Xia's hand tightly, expressing his sincerity.
"In your dream, I also went to sea?" She had supposedly gone out to sea voluntarily, saying she was looking for exotic items. But this clearly didn't fit Li Xia's lazy personality.
Zhou Heng was indeed doing it on purpose. Li Xia was disobedient, going into the mountains every day, clearly not caring about her body. He didn't need to find a way to make the pills sweet.
"Come and look at the training plan I've drafted," Xiao Changyou interrupted their conversation. Xiao Changyou had spent a lot of money recruiting some apprentices from medical clinics.
Xiao Changyou planned to first buy a batch of chickens, ducks, and rabbits, letting them handle these to get used to the bloody scenes. Then gradually increase to humans.
Zhou Heng wasn't satisfied; this pace was too slow. No need for gradual progress, they should start with real situations directly.
"Where can we find people for them to bandage?" This was also why Xiao Changyou chose small animals.
"That's simple," Zhou Heng looked towards the troops.
"No way," Xiao Changyou immediately stopped Zhou Heng. How could they injure soldiers for them to practice on?
"Qiu Ling, didn't you mention there's a group of bandits in the mountains ahead?" Li Xia asked Qiu Ling beside her.
"My lady, there's a nest of very fierce bandits on the small Feng Mountain ahead. They've killed passing travelers," Qiu Ling answered promptly.
"Capturing bandits for them to practice on is a good method," Xiao Changyou agreed, but how to capture the bandits?
"I'll lead a team to capture them," Zhou Heng said as he walked towards the squad leader to explain his idea. The squad leader's surname was Jiang, given name Chong.
After hearing this, Jiang Chong divided the squad into two halves, one to protect Li Xia, and the other to follow him to small Feng Mountain.
Li Xia asked Qiu Chan to lead a small team to hunt some wild game to reward the squad when they returned from fighting the bandits. Qiu Chan, carrying the large bow specially made for her by Li Xia, excitedly led the small team away.
Xiao Changyou continued to train the recruited apprentices, teaching them as much knowledge as possible. These people were willing to follow Xiao Changyou, firstly because he paid well, secondly because they couldn't learn much at their original clinics, and thirdly because they wanted to see the world. Young people are naturally bold and curious.
Hearing that the squad was going to capture bandits, these apprentices became very excited. Seeing this, Xiao Changyou took them to gather medicinal herbs, as they weren't focusing on their studies.
In the camp, apart from the cooks, only Li Xia and Qiu Ling remained. Li Xia noticed Qiu Ling staring in the direction Xiao Changyou had left.
"Have you decided?"
Qiu Ling turned back, looking at Li Xia somewhat embarrassedly, "Miss, I've decided to be with him."
