Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xiao Zeyu instantly turned from romantic to severe and authoritative. He asked the soldier outside the door in a deep voice,
“What is it?”
“Seventh Master Jiang has returned with heavy injuries.”
“What?”
Hearing the soldier’s report, Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu immediately opened the door and walked out. The temperature outside was completely different from the temperature inside the room. It was bone-chilling.
When the soldier saw Xiao Zeyu come out, he hurriedly cupped his fists and reported,
“The military doctor is treating Seventh Master Jiang. He’s seriously injured and unconscious.”
“Let’s go and take a look.”
Xiao Zeyu’s heart was burning with anxiety. Jiang Laoqi was mining in the coal mine. Something must have happened to the coal mine that he returned with serious injuries.
Su Qing followed Xiao Zeyu and ordered Xiao Qi to quickly make medicine in the system to heal internal and external injuries. Xiao Qi moved her chubby body with her short legs and ran as fast as the wind.
Compared to protecting Little Master, Xiao Qi preferred to be with Master and complete her orders!
Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing followed the soldiers to the north gate. The soldier who escorted Jiang Laoqi back was also severely injured. When he saw Xiao Zeyu, he quickly knelt on one knee and cupped his fists.
“This subordinate has let down Young Master and failed to protect the coal mine.”
Xiao Zeyu helped the soldier up with both hands.
“No need to be so polite. Where’s Seventh Master Jiang?”
Xiao Zeyu’s heart was burning with anxiety. The only good brothers left were Li Daniu and Jiang Laoqi. These two were honest, loyal, and valued friends. He did not want to lose either of them.
“Here.”
The military doctor was sweating profusely, and his hands were covered in blood. Old Jiang’s face was as white as paper, and the military doctor had just removed the arrow on his shoulder. His body was covered in blood, and on his last breath.
Xiao Zeyu strode over to Seventh Master Jiang. Seventh Master Jiang’s shoulder was still bleeding. He pressed the acupuncture point to stop the bleeding and anxiously picked up Seventh Master Jiang’s arm. He calmed down and took his pulse.
His life was hanging by a thread, and his pulse was so weak that it was almost impossible to feel. Even the Great Immortal could not do anything about it. Xiao Zeyu’s eyes were red as he endured the pain in his heart and looked at Su Qing for help.
“Qing’er, can you save him?”
He placed his hopes on Su Qing. Her medical skills were superb, and she could cure many illnesses quickly.
“I’ll try.”
Su Qing didn’t check his pulse. Seventh Master Jiang’s face was pale as paper. He had lost over half of his blood and was about to die. Checking his pulse would delay time.
Xiao Zeyu had already applied a needle to stop the bleeding, but the arrow had injured Seventh Master’s heart meridian. Even if she stopped the bleeding, it was useless. She first gave Seventh Master a precious recovery pill. The recovery pill was made from Lingzhi, which had the effect of reviving the dead.
However, the effect of the restoration pill that was not made from the thousand-year-old Lingzhi was still a little weak, but it was not a problem to save Seventh Master Jiang’s life.
Jiang Laoqi’s complexion improved after taking the medicine. Su Qing then fed him another blood-replenishing pill. If he did not replenish his blood, he would not be able to live.
After taking the two medicines that could save his life, Jiang Laoqi’s pulse was stronger. Su Qing asked Xiao Zeyu to clear everyone out. She disinfected the room and removed the surgical tools from the system.
This was not the first time Xiao Zeyu had seen Su Qing take something out of thin air. She had once explained that this was her Master’s immortal door and could store things, so he was not surprised and helped Su Qing perform the surgery on Jiang Laoqi.
Su Qing’s hands were swift. She did not hesitate when she used the scalpel. After an hour, she finished the operation and bandaged Jiang Laoqi’s wound with medicine that could heal quickly.
“Alright, he’s alive.”
After Su Qing finished the surgery, she took Seventh Jiang’s pulse. It was gentle and firm. Although he would not wake up immediately, his life would not be in danger. He had to rest well.
Xiao Zeyu had been paying attention to Jiang Laoqi’s pulse. When he felt his pulse was strong and knew he was fine, he heaved a sigh of relief and gratefully held Su Qing’s hand.
“Qing’er, thank you.”
Su Qing only smiled. She knew how much Xiao Zeyu valued his brothers. If Jiang Laoqi died, he would be despondent.
“Go and ask what happened at the coal mine.”
Su Qing stopped smiling, and her expression turned sharp. Jiang Laoqi had returned with severe injuries. The coal mine must have been attacked.
“Alright.”
Xiao Zeyu ordered his men to take good care of Jiang Laoqi and went with Su Qing to question the soldiers who risked their lives to bring Jiang Laoqi back.
They saw the military doctor bandaging the soldier’s wound when they left the room. When he saw Xiao Zeyu coming out, he hurriedly stood up and saluted. Xiao Zeyu supported him with both hands, looked at the strong soldier, and asked,
“What’s your name?”
“Young master, I’m Lin Xiang.”
“Alright, from today onwards, you will be promoted to commandant.”
Xiao Zeyu thanked this soldier for protecting Jiang Laoqi with his life. Such a brave soldier must be rewarded. He was directly promoted three levels, from an ordinary soldier to a commandant.
Lin Xiang walked over in surprise and knelt on one knee to thank the young Master. Xiao Zeyu helped him and asked sincerely, “What happened at the coal mine?”
This coal mine was their most significant source of income. Their military expenses were all supported by it. Nothing could go wrong.
As Lin Xiang spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.
“Reporting to Young Master, the Imperial Court suddenly sent troops to seize the coal mine. They were many, and we were outnumbered.”
“Then how did you get out?”
Su Qing rationally asked Lin Xiang with a cold face. Everyone was dead, so how did he escape?
Now that the Imperial Court knew of Xiao Zeyu’s existence, they would think of all ways to get rid of him. There was a scheme known as the “victim’s trap. “The Wan family might use the victim’s trap to plant a spy by Xiao Zeyu’s side. She did not trust anyone who had not been investigated.
“This lowly one knows of a secret passage and escaped through it.”
Lin Xiang cupped his fists and reported. There was not a trace of panic in his eyes.
“Shuisheng, wash his face.”
Su Qing handed Xiao Zeyu something that looked like soap. She had observed that Lin Xiang was not wearing a human skin mask. This soap could wash away the disguise on the face.
Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing’s minds were connected, and he instantly understood what she meant. He ordered someone to bring some clean water and handed the soap to Lin Xiang so that he could wash his face in front of him.
Lin Xiang did not understand why the young Master wanted him to wash his face, but there was nothing wrong with being obedient. He took the soap and washed it.
The water was a little dirty, but his face didn’t change, proving that he was authentic.
“Take us to the coal mine through that secret passage.”
Su Qing wanted to continue the test. She wanted to see if there was a secret passage in the coal mine.
The imperial court’s army was pressing down on the border, and all the other soldiers and miners had died in battle. Only he had survived and coincidentally brought back Seventh Master Jiang? Most importantly, this soldier was a new face. She did not remember seeing him in the coal mine!
Perhaps this person knew about the relationship between Jiang Laoqi and Xiao Zeyu and wanted to use him to gain Xiao Zeyu’s trust.
“Alright.”
Lin Xiang did not mention that he still had injuries on his body. This was an excellent opportunity to contribute. He agreed without hesitation.
“Shuisheng, let’s take some troops to take a look!”
Su Qing’s expression was cold, and his eyes flashed with wisdom.
The Wan Family Army should have already set up an inescapable net at the coal mine, waiting for them to enter the trap. Although she knew there would be danger waiting for them, she still had to snatch the coal mine back. Otherwise, the consequences of it falling into the hands of the imperial court would be unimaginable.
Lin Xiang lowered his head, and one could not see the emotions in his eyes.. When he heard that Su Qing would lead troops to the coal mine, his eyes moved slightly!
