Chapter 84: In Any Pose
While Mengyao Gu and Yu Gu were eating, news of the enemy’s attack arrived.
This caused Mengyao Gu to go to the battlefield on an empty stomach, not having eaten much. Yu Gu couldn’t help but frown, thinking that it wasn’t good for his little wife to always be like this!
He remembered that the Medical Scripture mentioned making highly satisfying onigiri…
It seemed he needed to learn how to make them.
“Yu, you should go back after you finish eating! I’ll look for you after the battle is over.”
“No need, I’ll wait for you here… Based on my calculations, this war won’t last long.”
“???”
Just as Mengyao Gu was about to ask Yu Gu to go back to his room and wait, Yu Gu shook his head at her, indicating that he would wait for her in the mess hall and the food wouldn’t get cold.
This made Mengyao Gu very confused, not understanding why Yu Gu would say that!
War was no child’s play, and each campaign took a considerable amount of time. If Yu Gu waited there, Mengyao Gu worried he would get bored.
“Vice General Gu, General Gongsun is gathering soldiers, please hurry.”
Just as Mengyao Gu was about to say something more, a soldier ran over quickly and told Mengyao Gu to get ready immediately, as they were about to lead the troops to battle.
Upon hearing the soldier’s words, Mengyao Gu nodded immediately and had to put away her curiosity, preparing to discuss it upon her return.
“Wife, I’ll wait for you to come back!”
As Mengyao Gu left quickly, Yu Gu directly raised his hand and waved, saying he would wait in the mess hall and told Mengyao Gu not to look for him anywhere else.
Although he had said it before, he had to confirm it now.
As for why Yu Gu said the time would be short, it was all because of Wuhe Kingdom’s poisoning… The other party would definitely use this battle as an excuse to unleash their new poison technique directly. Once they confirmed that the Linfeng Kingdom’s soldiers were poisoned, they would retreat quickly.
At most, because he had caused trouble before, the enemy’s commander harbored deep hatred for Linfeng Kingdom and wanted to kill a few more to make up for it…
However, with Mengyao Gu and the Spike Team here, this idea was doomed to fail.
As long as the Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom spent more time on the battlefield, their losses would only increase, because Linfeng Kingdom would completely disrupt their formations and then take lives like harvesting wheat.
Now, it depended on whether the enemy country was clear-headed and could stop the losses directly.
…
“Yu, your guess was spot on.”
“It was a little later than expected. Did the enemy use a more cumbersome tactic, so it took more time?”
“Yes, that’s right. But they didn’t last too long. I led the Spike Team to directly break through their lines and disrupt their formation.”
As expected, it wasn’t long before Mengyao Gu returned in a hurry.
Furthermore, Mengyao Gu had briefly wiped herself down and changed her clothes to avoid entering the mess hall covered in blood and affecting her appetite.
However, Mengyao Gu was quite curious about how Yu Gu could guess so accurately.
So, sitting next to Yu Gu, Mengyao Gu didn’t immediately pick up her chopsticks to satisfy her hungry stomach. Instead, she spoke to Yu Gu with a curious expression, preparing to voice the questions in her heart and have Yu Gu explain them properly.
Why was he so sure that the battle time would be particularly short!
“Mengyao, if you have something to say, just say it. Don’t keep it to yourself.”
While talking to Mengyao Gu, Yu Gu looked at the doubt on his little wife’s face, his lips couldn’t help but curl upwards, and then he spoke to Mengyao Gu, telling her to ask directly!
Yu Gu had already guessed what Mengyao Gu wanted to ask.
She must have wanted to know why he guessed so accurately.
“Yu, why did you guess so accurately? I hadn’t even gone to the battlefield yet, and you had already guessed the outcome. I didn’t believe it before, but it turned out you were right.”
“Hmm… It’s probably because I caused some trouble in the enemy country, so I got more information. Also, the enemy general who was tricked by me definitely won’t be able to swallow their pride and will try to retaliate.”
“I see.”
When Mengyao Gu asked her question, Yu Gu didn’t keep her in suspense but analyzed it directly.
He had caused so much commotion in the garrisons of both Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom. If the other party could still remain patient, they would probably become saints… Hmm, perhaps the legendary saints?
Obviously, that was not the case.
Therefore, Yu Gu had already anticipated what the enemy country wanted to do and had made arrangements for the subsequent solutions.
However, he needed to see what kind of new poison technique it was first, and then consider if his medical skills could cure it.
If not, he still had the Space Spring Water as a trump card.
But no matter what, Yu Gu wanted to cure the poison by himself this time.
He still remembered his little wife’s expectations and wanted to fulfill them this time… He had finally waited for the enemy country to poison them, so he had to seize the opportunity!
“However, the enemy country is truly foolish! They already know that I caused trouble and are aware of the new poison technique, yet they dare to play like this now… Do they think Linfeng Kingdom has no way to cure it, so it doesn’t matter even if they know?”
“With you, Yu, I’m not worried about that.”
“Heh heh, wife, you saying that makes your husband very happy! I feel trusted.”
“Stop talking nonsense. I’ve always trusted you! If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t have let you leave the military camp.”
“Yes, yes, yes, wife trusts me the most! Since the war is over, let’s eat quickly! So you don’t feel hungry, it pains me to see it.”
“Mhm.”
Yu Gu also lamented the boldness of Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom. After saying it at this moment, he expressed doubt about the enemy’s intelligence in his words.
However, it was not entirely unexpected that the enemy would do this.
Who would have known that Mengyao Gu and Yu Gu from Linfeng Kingdom were so formidable!!!
One was terrifying in combat, and the other was terrifying in medical skills. Together, they were like a perfect combination, directly thwarting the plans of Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom.
After all, they couldn’t win in battle, and poisoning was also ineffective.
Next, these two countries would have to cry…
“Yu, when will the detoxification be done?”
“Hmm… After we finish eating, we’ll go.”
As he picked up his rice bowl again, Mengyao Gu did not forget to ask. Only after hearing Yu Gu’s answer did she feel relieved.
Mengyao Gu did not want to see the enemy’s new poison technique be so potent that it could harm soldiers in a short period, so it was better to treat them as soon as possible.
Thinking this, the two did not eat slowly but quickly finished the food on the table.
Although Yu Gu didn’t want to eat so quickly, seeing his little wife devouring it like a whirlwind made him sigh in amazement, thinking that the military camp was truly a place that trained people!
He had never seen his little wife eat so fast!
Even though Mengyao Gu had visited the military camp once before, under Tang Lian’s correction, her eating speed had slowed down considerably by the time she met Yu Gu again, returning to her usual slow eating state.
It was precisely because of Tang Lian’s admonition that Mengyao Gu had kept it in mind! She couldn’t wolf down food in front of Yu Gu; she had to maintain a ladylike image…
However, the situation was urgent now.
It didn’t allow her to be slow!
Saving people was the priority.
“Yu, are you finished eating?”
“Huh? Ah! I’m done!”
“Good, then let’s go!”
So, under Yu Gu’s astonished gaze, after Mengyao Gu finished eating and asked Yu Gu if he wanted to eat more, Yu Gu subconsciously shook his head.
Then, Mengyao Gu directly pulled Yu Gu out of the mess hall and rushed towards the Spike Team’s residence.
It wasn’t that Mengyao Gu was biased, but that the Spike Team went to the battlefield with her and was always at the forefront of the charge. Even if the enemy poisoned them, the Spike Team would encounter the danger first.
Regarding this, Mengyao Gu was also extremely anxious and didn’t want her soldiers to be harmed.
Yu Gu also knew that the situation was serious. So, as his little wife pulled him along as if flying, Yu Gu didn’t say anything. In his heart, he comforted himself to enjoy the process.
After all, who could walk as fast as flying!
He could!
After finally arriving at the Spike Team’s residence, Yu Gu tidied his hair and asked Mengyao Gu to wait outside, while he went in to see the situation.
Although Mengyao Gu was now a deputy general in the army, she was a woman, and especially Yu Gu’s wife!
Yu Gu did not want his wife to see other men naked…
If she were to see, it would be him!
In any pose, Yu Gu could present himself!
“Brother-in-law, you’re finally here! Come quickly and see what’s wrong with Xiao Er. After returning from the battlefield, he felt uncomfortable all over. As soon as he lay down on the bed, he couldn’t get up, which made us very worried!”
“Mhm, I’ll take a look.”
After comforting Mengyao Gu a few times, Yu Gu strode into one of the rooms where the Spike Team was staying, preparing to see the situation first.
As a result, before he could walk a few steps, he was greeted by anxious soldiers. He then listened to their words and told them not to worry.
After that, Yu Gu quickly walked to the bedside and saw the person lying there breathing rapidly and with a flushed face. He was covered with a thick quilt, which made Yu Gu reveal a look of confusion.
“What is this?”
“Xiao Er kept saying he was cold, so we covered him.”
“Now, take off the quilt.”
Hearing the reason, Yu Gu didn’t ask further but asked the soldier next to him to lift the cotton quilt, wanting to see the condition of the soldier lying on the bed.
As a result, as soon as the quilt was lifted, a foul odor wafted out.
This almost made Yu Gu nauseous due to a moment’s carelessness…
Fortunately, the people around were enduring it. If only he had vomited, it would have been embarrassing. Yu Gu endured it with all his might. Then, he didn’t continue to suffer but took out a deodorizing pill from his space and put it directly into his nostrils.
Instantly, the air became very fresh.
Seeing that the people next to him were also trying hard to endure it, Yu Gu didn’t forget to give them one at this time and then turned his attention to the bed, looking at the soldier’s clothes which were soaked with pus, the red and white colors looking very horrifying.
Wuhe Kingdom was truly ruthless!
They could even use such a sinister poison.
