Trust.
It was a word that Nan Hua couldn't truly adopt into her life. She was still trying, bit by bit, so that she could trust someone again. But at the same time, she knew that the process itself would take a long time.
What was broken couldn't be fully recovered to be the same as it used to be.
The scars will be left.
"I have the recipe that can suppress these Gu. It belongs to my Master, but he taught me so that I can deal in case I meet with people from Lin Family or other masters when I'm visiting Zhang Xu Kingdom," Nan Hua added.
"What do you need. I'll prepare it for you."
"I'll hand you the list."
"Good." Long Qian Xing nodded. "The herbs that you asked before has also been prepared. It's in the basket, but I'm not sure what you're going to do with it."
"I'll make the medicine myself." Nan Hua glanced at the basket. She had sensed that there were herbs there, but she didn't know that it was for her. That was why she only prepared the bedding and fell asleep to recover.
Truthfully, she no longer needed the herbs to recover, but it could help her to reach her previous condition faster.
"I'm thinking of using this village as the location to meet with Strategist Mang's soldiers. The villagers would be hidden first to avoid unnecessary casualties. The location of this valley was really good to trap them." Long Qian Xing smirked.
Nan Hua looked at the map Long Qian Xing draw while writing a few herbs and nodded. She agreed with Long Qian Xing's approach.
This valley where the village located was somewhat below the areas around it. If Long Qian Xing placed his soldiers strategically and hid them before Strategist Mang came, he could effectively deal with them and trapped the soldiers inside.
That way, they could deal with Strategist Mang faster.
"That will be a good idea. How about if you add…"
"I think that…"
The two of them discussed the matter of the soldiers' placement and the commanders while Nan Hua made medicine for herself and drank it. As Nan Hua was not familiar with Long Qian Xing's soldiers, he introduced them one by one while telling his plan about them.
It was uncommon for Long Qian Xing to share his strategy to others. Many times, he only told parts to some of his commanders and the other only knew the other parts. When they cooperated together, they only found out that Long Qian Xing's plan was actually quite extensive.
"How do you plan on making the villagers follow your plan?" Nan Hua asked slowly.
"I'll have a good talk with them in the morning." Long Qian Xing looked outside and shook his head. It was already evening and soon the sun would go down in the horizon. It would not be appropriate for him to pay a visit to the village at this time.
