My Wife is the World’s Greatest Divine Martial General – Chapter 233

Chapter 25: I See a Dark Aura Around Your Forehead

Gu Yu was just wondering who was so bold as to rob them. When he lifted the carriage curtain, a large crowd of people appeared all around them, a vast expanse of them. No wonder they dared to stop the carriage directly.

Gu Yu had no good solution for this.

The enemy was clearly stronger, and they were weaker. If he could resolve the crisis at this moment, then he wouldn’t be called Gu Yu; he’d be called Gu Awesome.

Gu Yu, who had completely given up resisting, did not immediately lower the carriage curtain. Instead, he continued to observe how the situation would develop.

Anyway, he still had his spatial golden finger. After creating some chaos, he and his little wife could just hide in the spatial dimension.

When everyone else had left, the two of them could come out of the spatial dimension, and then return to Black Jade City, saying they were separated from Xing Zhi and the others on the road. There wouldn’t be any major issues.

In a short period, Gu Yu had already figured out all the subsequent arrangements, so he wasn’t flustered at all at this moment, and even felt a bit curious about ancient bandits.

Before, Gu Yu had only seen bandits in TV dramas. He had never imagined that… now there was a real-life version. Such an opportunity was rare, and he could watch for a longer period.

“Good sirs ahead, we only passed by this place by chance. If you want silver, I can give it to you directly. Please do not harm our lives.”

Xing Zhi was also very frustrated by the sudden encounter with robbers.

He was thinking about how it was fine when escorting grain supplies to the army, but now they were being targeted by bandits on the way back. It was truly unlucky.

If he could escape safely this time, he would definitely go back and burn more incense for Buddha, praying for his future safety and good health.

Upon hearing Xing Zhi offer silver, the men standing beside the bandit leader’s face immediately lit up with joy. However, at the same time, their gazes fell upon a man with a black cloth strip wrapped around his head, waiting for him to speak.

This time, the money they looted was good. At least their pockets were opened willingly. Now they just had to reach in and take all the money out!

However, when the man with the black cloth strip finally spoke, he was not prepared to let Xing Zhi and his group go.

“Hmph, don’t talk nonsense with me. Today, neither the silver nor the people will escape. If you’re sensible, surrender obediently now, or don’t blame my big saber for not having eyes.”

“This… we are all Big Masters, and there isn’t a single woman in our group. We don’t know what you good sirs want people for?”

“Why are you babbling? What business is it of yours! Now you have two choices: first, lay down your weapons and surrender directly. Second, fight us, and heaven will decide the winner.”

“…”

Then, upon hearing the man with the black cloth strip’s words, Xing Zhi immediately broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that he had really met a tough opponent this time.

Normally, when encountering bandits, he could just pay the toll and be on his way. Why wasn’t it working this time!

The Young Lady and the Son-in-law were still in the group. If a fight broke out and they were harmed, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to the Master when he got back.

As for surrendering to the bandits, Xing Zhi hadn’t even considered that. He had been to the battlefield before and knew that enemy soldiers who surrendered were still executed in the end.

“Xing Zhi, he said fight, so let’s fight. We hot-blooded men, are we really afraid of these bandits!”

As Xing Zhi was hesitating, Gu Yu suddenly lifted the carriage curtain, jumped off the carriage, and after speaking his first sentence, walked calmly to Xing Zhi’s side amidst everyone’s gazes.

Upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Xing Zhi immediately felt that things were not good, thinking that his young master was really too ignorant.

How could he say such things at this time!

Didn’t he see that the bandit leader’s face had already turned dark?

Not to mention the shouting and cheering bandits around them.

“Kid, go wherever it’s cool and stay there. If you anger me, be careful I chop off your little…”

The man with the black cloth strip’s expression was naturally not good upon seeing Gu Yu suddenly appear and hearing those words.

Then, as he spoke to Gu Yu, he kept poking the ground with his long saber. After poking several holes, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

However, before he could finish speaking, Gu Mengyao had already taken out a dagger and placed it on the man with the black cloth strip’s neck, forcing him to swallow the rest of his words.

Gu Mengyao appeared silently, like a ghost or a female specter, appearing behind the man with the black cloth strip. It wasn’t until the man’s long saber fell to the ground with a clang that the people around them noticed Gu Mengyao’s figure.

At this time, many bandits aimed their arrows at Gu Mengyao, looking as if they were ready to shoot at any moment, which scared some of the more timid soldiers on Xing Zhi’s side so much that they wet their pants.

Facing numerous arrows glinting with cold light, Gu Mengyao was not at all flustered. She held her dagger firmly, preventing the man with the black cloth strip from making any rash moves.

The person holding him now was so calm and skilled that she probably wouldn’t get any benefit from resisting.

To think that such a powerful expert was hidden in the group!

However, if they didn’t keep these people here this time, then their brothers would suffer greatly.

“Now, can we talk properly! By the way, don’t be so foul-mouthed next time, or you might bring retribution upon yourself.”

Seeing that his little wife had successfully taken the man with the black cloth strip hostage, Gu Yu quietly let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He then maintained a distance of within ten meters of Gu Mengyao to prevent any sudden accidents.

Originally, Gu Yu didn’t want to get involved in this mess.

However, after hearing the conversation between Xing Zhi and the man with the black cloth strip, Gu Yu immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Even if these bandits relied on their numbers, their side also had quite a lot of people, and they were all trained soldiers. If they really fought, it was still unpredictable who would win.

Therefore, the man with the black cloth strip had given Xing Zhi two choices earlier: surrender or resist.

It was precisely because of this that Gu Yu became suspicious.

Bandits usually robbed for gold, silver, treasure, women, and so on. But now the caravan was empty, and it was all men.

Xing Zhi’s offer of silver had already been the best solution.

But the man with the black cloth strip did not give up. From the looks of it, these people were more important than silver.

Gu Yu had burned the granary of the enemy camp, and he had been wondering when the Luoluo Kingdom would retaliate. He hadn’t expected that… it would be chosen for the time when they were about to reach Black Jade City. It was truly vicious!

However, these mere bandits were not enough to even tickle him when he got serious!

“Hmph, I have nothing to say. Kill me if you have the ability! My brothers will not let you go. They will hack you to pieces and then throw you into the fire…”

“Stop, wipe your mouth, your saliva is dripping.”

“…”

As the man with the black cloth strip spoke excitedly, Gu Yu suddenly interrupted him, which made the man glare at him resentfully. Then, after wiping the corner of his mouth, he realized that he was indeed drooling!

“This… how… how is it possible? I… cannot… become… like this, it’s… not… time… yet…”

“Nothing is impossible. I see a dark aura around your forehead, difficulty speaking, and drooling… you are clearly poisoned.”

“How… do… you… know, I… am… poisoned…!”

“Guessing.”

“…”

Then, after Gu Yu confidently declared that the man with the black cloth strip was poisoned, the man, while surprised, actually started speaking with a stutter, unable to even utter a complete sentence.

This made the man with the black cloth strip greatly alarmed, and it also made the bandits around them look uncertain and surprised, not knowing why their leader had become like this.

However, upon hearing Gu Yu say it was a guess, a line of black lines appeared on the face of the man with the black cloth strip. He wondered who this young man in front of him was, and why he was so infuriating to speak to.

Who would believe that it was a guess! After all, ever since this young man appeared, the poison in his body had begun to act up. Could it be that the young man understood medical skills?

“Alright, no more joking. I can tell because I have studied medicine, which is why I was able to determine that you were poisoned on our first meeting. And it’s not just you, other bandits have also been poisoned.”

“You child, don’t talk nonsense. How could we not know that we’ve been poisoned.”

“Exactly! If you lie, I will pull out your tongue.”

“Poisoned… Leader Lin is poisoned? No wonder, I felt something was strange when I looked at him before.”

“Get real, don’t believe everything you hear. How old is that child? Even if he studied medicine from the womb, he couldn’t possibly see that Leader Lin was poisoned at a glance!”

“If you ask me, we should have killed all these people back then, to avoid something like this happening now.”

“Are you stupid! We only want wealth. If we really fight, not to mention anything else… some of the brothers in the village will surely lose their lives because of it, so if we can avoid fighting, we should avoid it!”

“Everyone quiet down. It’s useless no matter what you say. In the end, we’ll have to see what Leader Lin decides.”

After Gu Yu finished speaking, it was like a stone stirred up a thousand waves. Just listening to the bandits around him whispering and discussing, it felt like being in a toad pit, noisy and jarring.

Gu Yu couldn’t help but frown at this. But he didn’t pay attention to them. Instead, he stared intently at Leader Lin, wanting to know what he would do.

“Please… save… me. No matter… what… price… just… save… my… life…”

As his speech became increasingly serious, even if Leader Lin didn’t believe in Gu Yu’s ability, he had no other choice now. He could only try his luck and ask Gu Yu to help him detoxify.

When Gu Yu heard this, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but curve upwards slightly. Then, a packet of medicinal powder in his hand, with holes poked in it, had quite a bit of green powder falling out of it.

The Medical Scripture is truly excellent, and now it has been put to great use. Gu Yu had noticed that Leader Lin was poisoned while on the carriage, and the poison was very deep, otherwise it wouldn’t have shown on the surface and made him look different from ordinary people. This packet of medicinal powder, which accelerated the onset of the toxin, had already been smeared by Gu Yu onto the dagger in Gu Mengyao’s hand. He was holding it now to prevent Gu Yu from directly throwing the entire packet of medicinal powder if it didn’t succeed.
