Xiao System: Diviner Yi Hua
Black Princess 11: Traces of Destruction

A SHOCK!

Li Wei was barely strayed when the horse started walking in difficulty. That made Li Wei remember that he was on a horse. From that moment because he did not speak, Li Wei became sleepy. He involuntarily fell asleep just like that by leaning on Hua's arm.

More than anything else the man also turned out to be good enough to let Li Wei's head stagger on his arm. The journey did not take long, and Li Wei had time to fall asleep.

Where is this already? Where am I?

Li Wei raised her chin which turned out to be stuck in Hua's upper arm. Lucky during the trip his head did not slide from Hua's shoulder. Otherwise, then Li Wei would have rolled on the road since he started falling asleep.

"Sorry Mr Hua, where have we arrived?" li Wei asked as she rubbed her face a few times.

Hua glanced at Li Wei, "Almost there."

The girl nodded her head and tried to straighten her body. Looking from this broken path should Li Wei already know. The mountain next to Li Wei looks like a half landslide due to rainwater. So that the road to pass is really sticky by the mud. If a horse's foot slips, then they have no choice but to walk.

Therefore, Hua only arranged for the horse to walk slowly. That was what made Li Wei again at a loss for words. He wanted to talk, but Hua was not a good interlocutor. Even talking to cows is better than Hua. At least the cow won't stare at him flat as if he's a bully.

However, if he did not speak, then Li Wei felt very sultry. Almost he scratched the horse's head because of lack of work. Li Wei scanned around, at the area that was completely badly damaged. A huge flood along with violent waves devastated half of the Central City area.

They were heading towards the evacuation, and the houses there had already become a pile up just like that. Several royal soldiers were seen in groups to inspect the heaps. Just to make sure that there are no fatalities buried there.

"What about the number of victims?" li Wei asked as she scanned the surroundings.

It was unbelievable that the City Center that Li Wei usually saw behind the carriage every time he walked around would look like a dead city.

Hua answered him in a flat voice as usual. His voice rang out above Li Wei's head, "Continue increasing."

Sure oes.

Who can hold a human life to death?

Especially if the land is already affected by a disaster. Suppose, ... If only ... Li Jun did not order to build a flood retaining wall, so this flood will come like a flood. Not because of the pressure of water due to being too detained. So that the rock fragments that become flood retaining walls also rained down on the bodies of residents.

Well, if ...

Although Li Wei's method also had risks that could not be expected by humans.

"Is there really no way to save Downtown? My point is ... If there is a way to prevent," said Li Wei who somehow can not forget the destruction of his homeland due to disaster.

Helga ... Well, Hua Yifeng replied calmly. "If you blame the First Prince, then it's not right. From the very beginning settlements that lived near the sea always had risks."

Since when was Hua Yifeng in line with her brother?

"In other words ... The deaths of many of these people are inevitable?" li Wei asked.

"Thinking naively won't change, Li Wei."

Indeed ... The water continues to flow, the wind continues to blow, and the falling leaves will still fall. Life goes on. Nothing can stop life. The death of a person does not mean that the world will stop changing day and night.

Therefore, the living can only keep living.

Cruel but the world has its own way.

"Mr Hua Yifeng ... Is that what you've always done to live?" asked Li Wei.

And, the girl realized that Hua Yifeng did not answer her. Li Wei also did not feel that he needed an answer to his question.

CRING!

The horse jumped slowly, and Li Wei only realized that he heard the sound of silver clanking. That made Li Wei turn her eyes to Hua Yifeng's waist. There was bound neatly to the sword with its silver sheath.

But what is striking is the red-colored decoration that is bound in the algae of the sword. Even the decoration was forged with good iron in order to continue to be bound with sword algae. Li Wei felt that the combination of the red jewel ornament with the silver sword was not right.

However, Hua's impression is also no sweetness, so this red decoration is too 'girl' for Hua to use. Not to mention the silver chains that tied the jewel. Li Wei did not see it right to be used as a weapon that looks 'amazing' this.

"This hiasan ... Isn't it usually used by a girl?" asked Li Wei who was familiar with the thing.

I think he also has something like that. But lost somewhere. However it was not strange for Li Wei, as she indeed often lost items. That was why he rarely brought money or gold with him, afraid that he would not be able to sleep because of the loss of money.

"I kept it to remember someone" Hua Yifeng said as he was.

Li Wei felt somewhat troubled about this 'someone', "Who? Why should I keep the decorations? If I don't guess wrong, then it's a girl's hair. I also once had the exact same one, but it disappeared out of nowhere" Li Wei said with a single breath.

Hua Yifeng did not know how Li Wei's sound resistance was. How could this silent girl talk so fast like that without asphyxiation? Very unique. Talent that Hua Yifeng could not do.

"A little Princess," Hua Yifeng replied.

Li Wei realized that this Hua Yifeng was less likely to lie while talking. This man will say plainly what is being asked. With condition ... Inquired. If not spoken to, then you can only look at this river stone incarnate man.

But, ...

As Li Wei recalled, this Hua Yifeng was very rarely close to a girl. Then, this little Princess from where did it appear to make this Hua Yifeng keep her hair ornaments? Li Wei suddenly wanted to ask again.

After all, this Princess must be referring to a daughter of a King. If it was a noble child, then Hua Yifeng would definitely call it the Young Miss or Young Girl if from the common people. Merely, the Princess in this Kingdom was only Li Wei a mere seed.

No ... No ...

"What is the Princess of the outer kingdom?" li Wei asked quickly.

For the first time Hua Yifeng's face had somewhat changed. The man was somewhat surprised by Li Wei's words. It was almost as if the man wanted to hit Li Wei on the head as he was upset. However, Hua Yifeng did have a higher attitude endurance than others. Hua Yifeng's expression changed.

"Is that why you became a Royal Official? So you can propose to another Royal Princess?" li Wei asked hysterically. He himself did not know why he was so curious about this.

However, in their time, a person with no level of social status would not be able to marry a girl from a noble family, let alone a child of the King. Another case if there is a treaty or competition that makes a Prince or Princess as a gift. Everything is clear now ... That was why Hua Yifeng was willing to pay homage to Li Jun. Just so that he is not eliminated in the social strata.

Not because Hua Yifeng dropped her honor, but made peace with the circumstances.

"You think so?" hua Yifeng asked who Li Wei could not see his expression.

Li Wei could not answer anything.

A DUG!

Hua Yifeng gave Li Wei a small punishment, namely by hitting his forehead on the back of Li Wei's head. Of course it wasn't a painful blow. Therefore, Li Wei did not protest anything, and after all she was not strange anymore if Hua prank on her.

This man often gets it. Let it.

"I certainly don't need all these posts. Although I have feelings for a flower, but the world has its own rules. If you want a flower, it obviously has to be someone equal to her" Hua Yifeng said as she placed her chin on Li Wei's head.

A flower?

I don't know why Li Wei's literary and artistic soul was accumulating.

"If I need to be ground, then it's better," Hua Yifeng said slowly.

"Why?" li Wei asked not understanding. He had always wondered about Hua Yifeng's literary soul. Feeling Hua Yifeng's head rather heavy, Li Wei became to lower her head slightly.

It's just ... This guy is very good at making markings with language that is difficult to understand.

"If it becomes land, I can continue to be fertile so that the flower remains beautiful. If he falls, he can be welcomed. If it has to be her foothold to continue to be beautiful, then it's better" Hua Yifeng said quickly. It was as if this man was not thinking about what he said anymore.

Whether this guy is serious or not.

"Say you want to be equal, the land and flowers are unequal" explained Li Wei who somewhat disagreed.

"I want him to realize that even if he falls, he won't be alone."

The lucky girl. Suddenly Li Wei wondered who this girl was. Loved that much, who wouldn't be happy?

Without feeling the horses had stopped. Actually, they can't get into the refugee camp by riding. This is because the road is steep and badly damaged. That was why Hua Yifeng stopped in a forest filled with fallen trees.

The girl, Li Wei raised her head, so that she could see Hua Yifeng's pointed nose. "Does this Princess not know how you feel?"

"Come, please" Hua Yifeng said as she pushed Li Wei's head back up.

Then, the man descended quickly. He took a cloth bag containing equipment. I don't know what Hua Yifeng brought. Meanwhile, Li Wei tried to get off the horse and caught up with Hua Yifeng who had already walked first.

"Hey, Mr. Hua. We are not done yet" said Li Wei who still demanded an explanation.

Hua Yifeng however walked over without looking over again. Although Li Wei had already followed him from behind. Li Wei walked with a bit of frenzy, especially because of the mud stuck to his shoes. Sometimes he feels like being a slithering animal and walking through the mud with a flaming smile.

Unfortunately, he could only walk slowly to get into the refugee camp.

***

During those two days also Li Wei continued to be at the aid of the refugees. In Li Wei's life, he had never seen a human death so close to him. In just two days the people that Li Wei had seen her existence had succumbed to pain. Due to severe injuries, they died.

Not necessarily his age. Old, young, children, even a man and a girl. Is this what Li Jun meant if Li Wei didn't know much about reality?

He had never seen this excitement come to his life. For he was always sheltered behind the solid pillars of his kingdom. But the tea in the bowl was easily nudged. The water can fall. Something just dries up. Some also fell to the ground, and gave water to the ground.

Everything changes very quickly.

"Daughter, rest. We will keep an eye on the injured population" one soldier said as he looked at Li Wei's hollow gaze.

Especially when a healer closes a body that has cooled. Li Wei had seen huge wounds on his hands. As Li Wei remembered it was a young man who had helped the soldiers to search for the missing victims. Who would have thought this man would easily die of age.

Li Wei gave a faint smile. A sign that he is okay. Besides, it doesn't help anything in this place. He only helped a few healers to boil the herbal medicine. Li Wei had never dealt with cooking.

However, he instead provided herbal medicine which of course was taught by the court physician. Not to mention Li Chen, her brother, often struggled in matters of herbs. Li Wei often met Li Chen at the Medicine Palace. So Li Wei was a little familiar with the aroma of herbs. Although not an expert quickly like one applause.

*Remember that Li Wei couldn't cook. This was why Yi Hua (who had actually borrowed his body from Li Wei) in one of the chapters had even mixed porridge with herbs. Not because he's sober healthy, but because he's only ever cooked herbs. The rest is just experimentation. This was why Li Wei knew about herbal medicines.

The soldiers could not ban Li Wei who was busy pacing around. This beloved little girl of her father's mother is used to getting whatever she wants. So even if this soldier forbade him, Li Wei would still be on his way.

Either this is something good or bad.

Just now that Li Wei wanted to take a wooden spoon to stir his medicinal decoction, his gaze suddenly blurred. It was almost as if Li Wei had been absorbed into the fire furnace that was in front of him. Luckily Li Wei was a little nimble to direct his downfall. He chose to weigh himself back, until sitting on dry land.

Because the housing was badly damaged, they could only build a maintenance tent. So that the ground was their floor, and Li Wei somehow did not mind that.

"Daughter."

A healer girl approached towards Li Wei to help him stand up. This princess just came yesterday afternoon. Then, without sufficient rest Li Wei focused on her work. So Li Wei had to rest. The problem was not just for Li Wei.

If the Princess did not rest, how could those who were only warriors and lowly healers rest?

However, Li Wei was still strong enough to get close until Hua Yifeng approached. Just this time they were very grateful for the arrival of this man. There was at least one person who dared to go against Li Wei's will here.

"Close your eyes," Hua Yifeng ordered in a calm tone.

At first Li Wei did not want to obey. However, Hua Yifeng's hand was directed to close Li Wei's eyes forcefully. And, unwilling to be forced, Li Wei closed her eyes willingly.

"On the third beat you will fall asleep," Hua Yifeng said as she clapped both hands for the first.

PLOK!

Li Wei frowned not understanding. However after the second pat, Hua Yifeng pointed her hand at Li Wei's shoulder.

PLOK!

This caused Li Wei to revolt. Until Hua Yifeng mentioned about the final clap.

BRUK!

The soldiers were shocked when Li Wei fell unconscious. They became wary thinking that Hua Yifeng had hurt Princess Li Wei. However, Hua Yifeng displayed an unconcerned face.

He just carried Li Wei like he was carrying a cow in the chest. Hua Yifeng simply suppressed Li Wei's sleeping point. And, the exhausted Li Wei was naturally easy to fall asleep.

SRETT!

Hua Yifeng walked out of the treatment tent. Before long he went into an empty tent that was a little wider than the other tents. Of course it was prepared for Li Wei. Although Li Wei had not entered the tent since yesterday.

The man immediately put Li Wei lying on the mattress with a wooden pole. The area can only accommodate one person. After putting Li Wei there, Hua Yifeng sat beside him Li wei fell asleep.

Hua Yifeng had just this time smelled the scent of Li Wei which was filled with the smell of charcoal as well as herbs. Usually Li Wei would smell like scattered rose petals. And, Hua Yifeng just sat quietly to observe Li Wei for a while.

"Sleep," Hua Yifeng whispered softly.

***

"Yahoo!!!!"

BRACKET!

Li woke up to the commotion around him. That was why he immediately woke up with a somewhat dizzy head. With as fast as that Li Wei could himself get up and walk out of the tent.

Why did a commotion appear like it was hitting a wall?

As he remembered, the situation around them was indeed crowded. But not a crowd like the one who had smashed as he had heard before. That was what made Li Wei walk even faster to open his personal tent.

SRETT!

"What's wrong?" li Wei asked the two soldiers standing guard in front of his tent.

Not yet able to hear any explanation, Li Wei saw Hua Yifeng was in the middle of the crowd. The sound of someone's screams rang out, and Hua Yifeng struck hard using her sword sheath. This of course made Li Wei fixated.

Was Hua Yifeng beating up someone?

"Sir Hua, what happened?" li Wei asked as he ran towards Hua Yifeng.

"Don't come here!" hua Yifeng shouted in quite a spirit this time. Because, this voice was the loudest voice that Li Wei had heard during the time he knew Hua Yifeng.

Li Wei stopped as if becoming stiff. Especially when looking at what Hua Yifeng was hitting with her sword sheath. The problem was also that he saw scattered stones around him. He began to realize that it was no ordinary stone.

That is ...

SRETT!

"Daughter, help us ... Why do these stones appear on our bodies?" shouted some people gathered in the middle.

Li Wei's hand shook as he saw the terrible thing in front of him. How not ... The skin of the people who were originally severely injured, due to disaster, and from the gaping wound came out stones that finally stuck to their skin. What Hua Yifeng had done before was simply trying to remove the stones from their skin.

But it turns out that the stone is none other than their skin and blood.

They took out stones just because they were hurt?

SRETT!

"Daughter, please! Please!" a loud shout was heard from the few people who started to object in his hands.

In fact, the stone kept coming out in a very horrible way. They tried to crawl over to get closer towards Li Wei who stood up tremblingly. The soldiers who were on guard certainly struck towards them to keep them away.

Why hit with an intermediate object?

Because they are afraid that the stone disease will be contagious.

BRACKET!

The real stone of blood and flesh was scattered on the ground. All that remains are their hands that become bones. Li Wei suddenly became nauseous. Especially when the smell of blood pollutes the air

"UGH!!!" without being able to be restrained again Li Wei was nauseous, and spat several times.

It's not rude. It's just ... It's so horrible.

"Is this the curse of the Prince? The prince was angry that the Stone Labyrinth was destroyed and created a disaster!!!! No ... Please," The voice mingled around Li Wei.

And, it made Li Wei recall something that was indeed famous in the Li Kingdom.

About the disaster caused by Prince Bungsu who cursed his own country for subverting himself.

However ... Isn't that just a folktale?
