All Hail Cousin Brother

Yu Youyao was a little surprised: "No wonder the security inside and outside the village is so tight."

Whether it was the location on the mountain, the suspension bridge, or the construction of internal and external fortifications, they were not ordinary bandits: "It's a pity that what they encountered was not the government, but the Youjun."

Listening to her understatement, Yin Huaixi almost became angry again.

Yu Youyao saw that his expression was wrong and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, how is the situation outside? Are Commander Huang and Yin Shi okay? Have all the hostages been rescued? Has the situation in the village been found out?"

Yin Huaixi could only say: "The plan went very smoothly. Most of the bandits went to the suspension bridge to meet the enemy. Lao Huang and Yin Shi were fine. Together with several of their subordinates who had been captured into the mountain, they were clearing out the bandits left behind in the village. Yin San led General Hei , found the place where the hostages were held, and went to rescue the hostages, but," he frowned: "the situation in the village is a bit complicated."

Yu Youyao's heart skipped a beat and she quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

Yin Huaixi said: "There is a gold mine in the back mountain of the mountain village. It was discovered by the bandits accidentally when they were building fortifications in the back mountain. It was only discovered not long ago."

Yu Youyao's eyes widened: "Is there a gold mine hidden in the mountain? No wonder the bandits want to seize men to work in the mountain as coolies."

The mineral resources in various parts of the Zhou Dynasty were in the hands of the imperial court. Private mining was a capital crime. Gold and silver mines were scarce minerals. Even under Yin Huaixi's name, there were only a few iron mines.

Yin Huaixi said: "According to Yin Shi's information, this gold mine has a large ore reserve. The gold mine produced is of high purity and can melt red gold."

Yu Youyao was overjoyed: "This is really a windfall from heaven!"

Killing a bandit can also bring out a gold mine. No one has such luck. Yin Huaixi smiled: "However, the news of the bandit's attack on you has been sent to Liancheng, and the government will come to take over tomorrow morning." Follow-up matters regarding the gold mine need to be carefully arranged to avoid being discovered by the government."

Suppressing bandits was originally a matter for the government. After the government took over, they would arrange for people to explore the entire village and take over the surviving bandits and hostages in the village.

Yu Youyao was a little annoyed: "If I had known earlier, I would have sent someone to send the message later."

There is not much time to deal with the matter of a gold mine now. The bandits are chatty and talkative. They have captured many hostages before and sent them to the mine for mining. There is a chance that the government will notice the clues.

Yin Huaixi consoled him: "Old Huang will take care of it."

Yu Youyao breathed a sigh of relief, and her stomach growled a few times.

Yin Huaixi's face tightened again, and he took out an oil paper bag from his arms and handed it to her: "Fill your stomach first."

"Why did you bring food?" Yu Youyao took the oil-paper bag in surprise and opened it quickly. She saw three golden, round pancakes and two white shortcakes inside.

Yin Huaixi said: "The golden-yellow pancake is a distinctive pie in the Xiuyan area. The filling is the local unique Hua Zi Mo, which tastes crisp, tender and refreshing, and has a unique flavor. The other is a small white pastry with a crispy outside. It is a pastry, soft in the mouth, with fillings made of peach kernels, peanut kernels, etc. It is also a pie snack. There are many cattle and sheep in Liaodong. When it comes to pies, meat fillings are more delicious. When you pass the filial piety period, I will bring you some You taste it carefully."

Yu Youyao likes all kinds of food. When he goes to a new place, he must first inquire about the local specialties and often bring them to her.

Yu Youyao was very happy: "Thank you, Brother Nineteen."

Yin Huaixi couldn't help but laugh.

After eating, Yin Huaixi stood up and reached out to pull Yu Youyao.

As soon as Yu Youyao stood up, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle. Her face instantly turned pale, she staggered and threw herself into Yin Huaixi's arms, letting out a gasp.

"What's wrong?" Yin Huaixi asked immediately, and immediately noticed that her standing posture was wrong: "Is your foot twisted?"

Yu Youyao was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. It must have been because she had been standing for a long time, and her ankle bones were numb again, but she didn't feel much pain. After sitting for a while, the numb pain came back, and when she suddenly stood up, she felt a lot of pain. Heartbreaking.

Yin Huaixi quickly helped her sit down, half-knelt in front of her, glanced at her, and then raised her left foot: "How long has it been twisted?"

Yu Youyao bit her lip lightly: "It was twisted on the way up the mountain." Noticing that Yin Huaixi's face turned dark instantly, she quickly added: "At that time, it was only a slight twist, no bones were hurt, and it didn't hurt much... …”

Yin Huaixi took a dagger from his arms and cut open his sheepskin boots, revealing his little feet wrapped in socks. The feet were so swollen that the loose socks were full.

After squeezing her swollen feet, she was finally freed from the shoes. It was obviously painful, but Yu Youyao felt strangely relaxed.

Seeing Yin Huaixi holding her feet, she felt something was wrong and tried to retract her legs.

But Yin Huaixi took a dagger and cut open the socks on her feet.

The entire foot had swollen into a big carrot. Because it had been squeezed in the shoe for a long time, the skin was bluish-white. The veins hidden under the skin also floated to the surface, which was a bit shocking.

Yin Huaixi held Yu Qing's ankle with a sullen face and pressed hard.

"It hurts..." Yu Youyao screamed, her throat gasping uncontrollably.

"I sprained my hamstring, but no bones were injured," Yin Huaixi breathed a sigh of relief. It could be seen that her foot was severely swollen, and she felt angry and distressed: "Why didn't you tell me?"

The girl has been delicate and afraid of pain since she was little. Even if Mr. Ye Nv slaps her on the hand a few times, she still screams in pain.

Yu Youyao whispered: "I forgot."

Yin Huaixi couldn't even get angry anymore, so he quickly took out the ointment and applied it on the whole foot: "I'll help you deal with it first. It will be very painful, please bear with it."

He didn't wait for Yu Youyao's answer.

He pinched the swollen ankle bone, feeling a pressing and painful feeling that made Yu Youyao's brain dizzy from the pain. She was no longer able to think about whether it was in compliance with the rules, etiquette, and appropriateness.

It hurts, it hurts so much.

"Do you, do you know how to massage? How can it be so painful?" Yu Youyao shivered in pain. She suspected that Yin Huaixi was deliberately punishing her for "taking risks": "Chunxiao, let Chunxiao come..."

"It's been a hundred days since you injured your muscles and bones. There are bruises and blood on your ankle bones. It's a tear of the tendons. If you want to recover as soon as possible, you need to use special techniques to activate the muscles and activate the blood to disperse the blood and restore it. Chunxiao can't do it."

Yin Huaixi applied the smooth ointment and pushed it along her ankle bone all the way to her toes, then repeated the previous actions over and over again.

The flat pushing method can relax the fascia and restore the tendons.

Yu Youyao didn't believe it, gritted her teeth and endured the pain.

Yin Huaixi explained patiently: "The training in the military is intensive, and various bruises and injuries often occur. The military's medical resources are limited. I am best at dealing with such injuries."
