Chapter 8 - Zhengyu and his magical things

Next morning when Shen Hongxi opened his eyes he was all alone in the room. Voices of people talking can be heard. He gets up and went outside the tent stretching his body .

Some slaves were cooking food and while others were packing up. When Shen Hangsu who was talking with the slaves saw Hongxi had wake up. He immediately went towards him and asked ,"Brother Hongxi how are you feeling now?? Do you remember anything".

Shen Hongxi was irritated with the sudden inquiry.but he plastered a smile on his face and replied, "I am feeling better than yesterday but I don't remember anything yet".

"Don't worry brother, I am here I will definitely help you to recover and yes I forget to tell you Master Zhengyu has called you in the general Yijian's camp", Shen Hangsu said while moving away.

Shen Hongxi take a deep breathe and went in the Yijian's camp.

Brother Hongxi how's your health?? Wang Zhengyu asked with a smile as soon as Shen Hongxi entered the camp.

Hongxi was captivated by the beauty of the man but he soon shifted his gaze and said," I am feeling good".

"Shen Hangsu told me that you want to talk to me", Shen Hongxi asked .

Ahh yes, Wang Zhengyu said while finding something in the sleeves of his robe.

"Here it is, it's the medicine i prepared early in the morning it will help you to replenish you mana and relieve the headache you're having ", Wang Zhengyu told Shen Hongxi and handover the ointment to him.

After taking the ointment Shen Hongxi went outside near the lake.

He sat down on the rock and start removing his robes for applying the ointment. He starred at the ointment bottle for some time. As thinking whether it is safe or not.

But after thinking for sometime he start massaging it lightly on his chest and then on his forehead.

He immediately feels the surge of energy inside his meridians . It feels like after applying the ointment the locked mana again start flowing in his body. His head start feeling light as he closed his eyes for replenishing his energy.

Though his eyes were closed but he can feel the healing of the outer cuts on his body.

After some time when he opens his eyes they completely red. All the blocked meridians have start working again. When he saw the reflection of his eyes in the lake water he jumped with excitement.

"How can this possible?? This is certainly the biggest invention in the medical field. Oh my Wang Zhengyu if I know there is capable man like you who can heal injuries like this I will have surely finded you earlier." Shen Hongxi thought as he smiled after seeing his glowing face.

When Shen Hongxi returned after applying the ointment everyone has packed their stuff and they were ready for moving.

Shen Hangsu who was dectating the slaves collided with Shen Hongxi. When he turned back his eyes filled with amusement. He gulped his Saliva as he asked ; Brother Hongxi is it really you??.

Shen Hongxi laughed on the expression Shen Hangsu has been making .after seeing him, he gently patted his head and say, "Who else can it".

"How can this be possible?? You're looking like you're in your twenties", he said while starring at his face.

"It is because your master Zhengyu gave me an ointment which not only heal the outer body but also internal meridians", Shen Hongxi tells him while his lips curved into a smile.

Wang Zhengyu also joins them with Yan Yijian and captain.

"Hm... It seems that Zhengyu's medicine show its effect. You're looking much better than before", Yan Yijian said while starring at Shen Hongxi.

Shen Hongxi bowed and thanked Zhengyu for the ointment.

There no need for this. You're my personal guard and your well being is my responsibility, Wang Zhengyu said with a bright smile on his face.

As the things were packed they start moving into the forest. The forest was very dense and it's very difficult for one to find path . Zhengyu took out a round watch like thing from his sleeve and handover it to Shen Hongxi. Shen Hongxi starred at the thing with utmost curiosity and than look upward as for asking him about the thing.

Wang Zhengyu tell him," This is the location teller device we called it compass. You keep it as you will be guiding the location".

"Is there something like this. How come I never heard of this", Shen Hongxi asked while starring at the compass with amusement.

"Because Wang Zhengyu has discovered this", Yan Yijian replied while looking at Wang Zhengyu.

Not to mention this Pampered young master is quite intelligent. After I get out from this forest I will certainly offer him to work with me, Shen Hongxi smiled while thinking about this.

Hours passed while they were moving without resting. Shen Hangsu said while wiping his sweat, "Master Zhengyu I never thought you were this stingy".

Wang Zhengyu chuckled and asked , "And why did you think I am stingy".

"If you're not stingy than why are you not using the teleportation talisman. We still have abundant of them, Shen Hangsu explained.

"There's no doubt we have them but they are nothing more than piece of paper due the contact with water the letters has been blurred", Wang Zhengyu replied while smiling.

Shen Hangsu who was listening to Wang Zhengyu collided with Shen Hongxi who has stopped immediately.

What happens brother Hongxi?? Why do you stop suddenly?? Is there something?? , Shen Hangsu asked Hongxi and than looked at Wang Zhengyu.

Wang Zhengyu signal him to keep quite. Yan Yijian also become attentive. All of them unleashed their swords for fighting.

"Ah can you smell that",Shen Hongxi asked while turning towards them who have unleashed their swords.

What smell ?? Yan Yijian asked immediately..

"The smell of roasted duck ", Shen Hongxi replied while closing his eyes and breathing deeply.

All of them put their swords against their waist. with a annoying expression Yan Yijian asked, "i never think that brother Hongxi like to joke in this type of situations.

"I am not joking", Shen Hongxi replied in same tone.

"Wait, I can also smell that". It means there can be a tribe or village near by , Wang Zhengyu tell while moving in the direction of the smell.
