Chapter 86: The Items You Need
With Gu Yu here, the poisoned soldiers of Linfeng Kingdom did not suffer much, and the poison was removed from their bodies.
Gu Yu and Shen Tu were like diligent little bees, quickly moving around the soldiers’ barracks and finally controlling the situation.
For the remaining lightly poisoned soldiers, Gu Yu was too lazy to treat them. He told them to queue up at the military medical office, where assistants would help with the detoxification.
Because the Spike Team had too much contact with the enemy, they were not lightly poisoned like other soldiers, but severely poisoned!
Otherwise, it would not have reached the stage of festering.
“A’Yu, you’ve been busy all afternoon, take a break!”
“Yes, the rest of the work can be handed over to others.”
“Wuhe Kingdom is really detestable, to use such vicious methods! When the time comes, I will definitely return it double!”
After resolving the soldiers who were bedridden in the barracks, Gu Yu then gathered the remaining soldiers. After a thorough check, the poisoned individuals were identified and sent to the military medical office to take the antidote.
After completing the important tasks, Gu Yu did not offer to help with everything, but handed these matters over to others.
If everything had to be done by him, wouldn’t he be exhausted to death!
He still wanted to live a few more years!
“How was the battle this time? I believe, wife, you didn’t let them off easily!”
“Hmph, they are still too weak, they only know how to play tricks. In the end, they were defeated and fled in disarray by the Linfeng Kingdom’s army. It’s truly embarrassing.”
“No wonder, you are indeed very powerful! This time the enemy country tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice, and suffered even greater losses.”
Gu Yu smiled and nodded at Gu Mengyao’s statement about retaliating, without any doubt.
His little wife always kept her word!
However, Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom did not fare well in this battle either.
Although the Linfeng Kingdom’s soldiers were poisoned, the enemy lost more soldiers, and what’s more… the poison that was administered had now been resolved by Gu Yu.
Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom were destined to be unlucky.
While talking with Gu Mengyao, Gu Yu handed the formula for the antidote to Shen Tu, asking him to arrange for his subordinates to learn it, so as to solve the problem more quickly.
Gu Mengyao, who had been standing by the side, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Gu Yu’s face, hoping he would rest and not overwork himself.
Although Gu Yu usually appeared lazy, he was extremely focused when he was serious.
As he was busy all afternoon helping with the detoxification, Gu Yu did not complain at all. It was only after checking that there were no omissions that he finally relaxed.
Seeing Gu Yu like this, he was becoming more and more handsome!
No wonder people say that a serious man is the most handsome.
Gu Yu did not refuse his little wife’s service. After sitting down on a chair, reminded by Gu Mengyao, he indeed felt a little tired.
He hadn’t been so serious for a long time, it was really unaccustomed!
However, thankfully, the matter of the enemy country’s poisoning was successfully resolved, which could also put Gu Mengyao at ease.
But…
“Wife, did I do a good job this time?”
Since the problem had been solved, Gu Yu naturally wanted to talk to his little wife properly.
He remembered… the reason he worked so hard was all for Gu Mengyao’s praise.
Now, it was time to reap the rewards!
“Of course you did, you’re the best of the best!”
“Hehe, I should get a reward when we get back… otherwise, I won’t work so hard next time!”
“Alright, alright, I’ll reward you when we get back! There are still many people here now, don’t let them see.”
When Gu Mengyao heard Gu Yu’s words, her expression froze for a moment, and then she shook her head helplessly, thinking that her little husband was too easily satisfied!
After saving so many people, he only wanted her praise?
How cute!
However, the current venue was not suitable, so it was best to wait until they got back!
“Hmph, let those people see our little couple being intimate! I’m not afraid… ugh, father-in-law is here!”
“Huh? My father is here?”
When Gu Mengyao said this, Gu Yu opened his mouth indifferently, stating that there was no need to worry about it. Anyway, the soldiers were all busy, who would care about this side?
Moreover, Gu Yu wanted his reward now!
Although he knew it was unlikely, touching her little hand and taking some slight advantage would also be acceptable.
However, before Gu Yu could finish speaking, he sensed a strong gaze looking over. When he looked up, he saw his father-in-law standing opposite him with his hands behind his back.
When looking at Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao, Gu Qing had a complicated expression on his face.
“Doctor Gu, this is from Deputy General Gu Qing. He said it’s what you need.”
Then, as a bamboo box was delivered, Gu Yu couldn’t help but twitch his mouth. He then looked at his father-in-law again, and Gu Qing gave him a “you know” expression, which left Gu Yu speechless.
Even without opening this box, Gu Yu knew what was inside!
“A’Yu, what did my father send?”
“Nothing, just some antiques and calligraphy and paintings.”
As Gu Mengyao looked at the box with curiosity, Gu Yu quickly hugged it, for fear that his little wife would open the box at this moment and see the contents.
Although Gu Yu wanted to clear up the previous misunderstanding and let Gu Mengyao see that these things not suitable for children were sent by Gu Qing…
However, with so many prying eyes around, if these things were exposed, the consequences would be quite serious!
At the very least, his little wife would definitely be angry and wouldn’t talk to him for a week!
Even though the items were sent by Gu Qing, Gu Mengyao couldn’t be angry with her own father, so she could only be angry with him… Therefore, to prevent such a result, Gu Yu decided not to reveal the items at this time.
It’s just that he had to be more careful in the future. Whenever he showed signs of wanting to be intimate with his little wife, his father-in-law would always appear out of nowhere and send some functional items to promote a more harmonious life.
But this was completely counterproductive!
He and Gu Mengyao were still young! Contacting these things not suitable for children too early was unbearable!
“Mengyao, I’m going back to lie down for a while. I’m feeling mentally exhausted.”
“I’ll go back with you!”
“No, you still need to watch things here! I’m fine, I was just highly stressed all afternoon, and now that I’ve relaxed, I feel a bit weak.”
Afterwards, carrying a box of “bombs,” Gu Yu quickly slipped away.
When Gu Mengyao spoke with concern, Gu Yu directly shook his head, saying it was nothing serious, he just wanted to lie down for a while, and there was no need to worry.
Actually, Gu Yu felt that he only needed to drink a mouthful of spring water to recover, but now he had to deal with the box in his hand, otherwise, if someone accidentally knocked it over, things would become troublesome.
After all, others didn’t know that this box was sent by Gu Qing. If they thought Gu Yu liked to collect such things, he would never be able to clear his name, even if he jumped into the Yellow River!
Thinking of this, Gu Yu quickly returned to his residence. After storing the box in his space, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Gu Yu truly felt the fatigue surge up, and after lying on the bed for less than five minutes, his eyelids grew heavier and heavier. In a short while, he fell into a deep sleep.
It seemed that he should not work too hard next time, it was too tiring!
Let Shen Tu do the work!
…
“Batoa, are you sure the new poison technique is effective? If we still can’t take down Linfeng Kingdom this time, we can only shift our target and focus our attention on Minghua Kingdom. After taking down Minghua Kingdom, we can deal with Linfeng Kingdom.”
“Don’t worry! I have great confidence in this poison! Linfeng Kingdom will definitely be in a mess. When fear spreads throughout the entire barracks, we can continue to attack!”
“With your words, I have a better idea. The casualties caused by this attack are too high. If there are no gains, there is no need to continue hanging on to Linfeng Kingdom.”
At the Wuhe Kingdom’s military camp, Gao Wenji’s words were very clear.
If they couldn’t take down Linfeng Kingdom, they would shift their target.
At least, they had to take down either Linfeng Kingdom or Minghua Kingdom.
Otherwise, this attack would bring no benefits, but rather considerable losses, which was enough to make people feel “egg pain” (colloquial for frustration).
Moreover, if they let the adults’ hard work go to waste, they would be held accountable.
Upon hearing Gao Wenji’s words, Batoa couldn’t help but smile proudly, and then confidently stated… this poisoning attempt would be successful, and then they could easily capture the Linfeng Kingdom’s army!
Not only the Linfeng Kingdom’s army, but also that envoy, if he could be found, he would definitely be made to suffer the immense pain he had inflicted!
“However, what’s the situation with that woman from Linfeng Kingdom? I didn’t hear of such a powerful woman holding a deputy general-level position in the army before!”
“I’m not too clear about the specific situation. It’s just a woman, no matter how powerful she is, she can’t cause much of a storm! Let’s just wait patiently, and Linfeng Kingdom will collapse in a couple of days!”
When speaking of Gu Mengyao, Gao Wenji couldn’t help but show a look of fear. He was terrified by a spear on the battlefield. Even now, thinking back… it felt like Yama was swinging a spear, easily reaping lives, without any hesitation.
It was precisely because of such ferocity that she was more memorable.
Especially, since Gu Mengyao was a woman!
But Batoa did not take this to heart.
Although Gu Mengyao was very powerful on the battlefield before, the soldiers she led were even more powerful!
If it weren’t for the formidable combat power of these soldiers, who broke through the gap on the side of Wuhe Kingdom and Changlin Kingdom, they probably wouldn’t have escaped so quickly, and they would have had a good kill.
“Gugugugu”
“It’s a letter from the Grand Lord!”
Just as Gao Wenji and Batoa were talking, a “gugu” sound was heard, and then a pigeon flew over, with a bamboo tube tied to its claw, which was very conspicuous.
When the two saw the pigeon, surprise and joy appeared on their faces.
The Grand Lord had actually sent a letter!
