Chapter 949: If and Only If (2)

Chapter 949: If and Only If (2)Nan Luo sighed.

He had heard Nan Hua said herself that she was not capable enough to treat them. Maybe if they have someone who was more skilled than Nan Hua, these children could still be saved.

But unfortunately, that was only an if.

It was impossible for them to search for a doctor in this remote area. And within the few cities, was there even any Heavenly Doctor that was capable of treating someone who was already on the verge of death and deemed to be untreatable by many others?

There were very few of them who were capable enough to do something like that.

And Nan Luo knew very well that Nan Hua was not included in that few numbers despite her excellent skills.

"Let's go and see his condition."

"Mhm."

Feng Ao Kuai frowned a bit, but he still followed Nan Luo. He had to say that he didn't like Mu Sheng Xi at all because of his poor experience when they were working together not long ago.

But at the same time, the two of them were soldiers of Fei Yang Kingdom. It was impossible for him to completely ignore the other party when they were doing the same mission.

The other party's state would affect their mission.

That was why Feng Ao Kuai could only sigh.

"Nan, come with us to Young Commander Mu's tent."

"Yes."

Nan Hua followed the other two as they headed to Mu Sheng Xi's tent. As a commander, it was normal for Mu Sheng Xi to have a tent for himself. In fact, it would be weirder if he shared his tent with other people.

As they were getting close, they could hear muffled sounds coming from the tent.

"Young Commander Mu, Second Young Commander Feng and Young Commander Nan are here."

"Let them in."

"I know."

Mu Sheng Xi was not that close to his cousins either, but he had spent a long time in his childhood with these brats back then. He could still remember many things that had happened when he was young.

The Mu Family was big.

There were a total of six brothers with General Mu being the first of the six brothers. Half of them were faced with persecution because of what they did and many of his long distant cousins were also implicated. His grandfather, who was a duke, was also executed along with the others.

Mu Sheng Xi felt heavy when he heard of what had happened.

Even his father looked like he had aged more, but he was still rather calm. After all, General Mu had known what his family members did. It was also because of their action that General Mu decided to live far away from them.

He didn't want to return to the Capital City.

In the end, only his third and fourth brother were spared.

Back then, Mu Sheng Xi thought that with them being spared, it also meant that his cousins would be fine. That way, he didn't have to worry that much about his cousins.

But he was wrong.

Looking at how Mu Fang ended up now, he feared that things might have been worse for them instead.

"I should have helped them instead." Mu Sheng Xi watched as Mu Fang calmed down, but he still looked like his soul was not here. It was a sight that he never wanted to see from his cousin.

Mu Fang was such a cheerful brat back then that Mu Sheng Xi really couldn't bring himself to accept this change so quickly.

"Even if you're there, you won't be able to help them." Feng Ao Kuai took out several bamboo strips. "These youngsters all carried a tag with them."

"Tag?"

"Yes, it's written Dolls with different numbers."

"Dolls?" Mu Sheng Xi's eyes burned with rage when he heard that.
