<h4>Chapter 123 Daughter of the General</h4>


    From Fallen Snow Vi to Snow Moon City, and from Qingcheng Mountain to Lei n Fort, it seemed that along the way, Xiao Se and Lei Wujie constantly faced the situation of being short of funds. Before this, they’d passed through Sword Heart Tomb and received an excellent sword that was ranked fourth under Heaven. Unfortunately, the excellent sword was priceless, and they couldn’t sell it. So, after staying one night at an inn, they were faced with the same problem again.


    They had no money.


    Xiao Se sighed and looked at Sikong Qianluo. "The Spear Immortal was a disciple of the Medicine King. Have you learned some medical skills from your father?"


    Sikong Qianluo shook her head. "Fighting, I can do. But, medical skills… I don''t know anything."


    Lei Wujie interrupted hurriedly, "What medical skills do we need? Xiao Se, you have the Peni Pill and that Three-Day Pill that Hua Jin gave you. Why is it difficult to save someone?"


    "Do you know how much a Peni Pill is worth? And if the existence of that Three-Day Pill got leaked, do you know how many people will desperately rob for it?" Xiao Se looked at Lei Wujie coldly.


    Lei Wujie spread his hands. "Your Peni Pill is precious, but who in this little town will know about it? It''s a virtue to save a life. Let''s hurry and go." Without saying another word, he pulled Xiao Se up and ran out. Xiao Se sighed and pushed Lei Wujie''s hand away. "I''ve learned a few simple medical skills before. Let''s go."


    Lei Wujie and others were shocked. "Xiao Se, have you also studied medicine?"


    "So what?" Xiao Se retorted.


    "Xiao Se, what kind of character were you in the past? You have powerful martial arts, you’re great at gambling, and you still know medical skills!" Lei Wujie was full of admiration.


    "Enough ttering. Go." Xiao Se turned around and walked directly out the door.


    Yuanzhi City, Prefectural Office.


    The prefectural magistrate, Wang Ruofu, was already sweating profusely at this moment. He had just gotten up early this morning when he met a man in ck carrying a person in his arms, and breaking into his residence. Originally, he was about to swear out loud, but he was attacked by the man in ck with a knife to his throat. But what shocked him even more was what the man in ck said to him afterwards.


    Thisdy is the daughter of General-in-chief Ye Xiaoying. She was seriously injured and needs immediate medical attention. Wang Ruofu was immediately shocked into cold sweat. The General-in-chief Ye Xiaoying, what a huge personage! The Beili military forces were divided into threerge armies: the Central Army, the Upper Army, and the Lower Army. The three armies all came under themand of the Beili Grand Protector. However, after Langya Prince’s rebellion, the Beili Grand Protector position had been left vacant. Mingde Emperor took direct control of the military forces, and amongst the three armies, the Central Army was the most respected, so the General-in-Chief of the Central Army, Ye Xiaoying, was actually the highest ranking man in the Beili military forces. Would the daughter of such a person run into this little Yuanzhi City? Wang Ruofu didn’t believe it at first, so while he was thinking about his own life, he quickly invited a famous doctor from the city, and at the same time he invited a military officer of Yuanzhi City. This military officer was formerly an Imperial Insignia Guard in Heavenly Revtions City. He would surely be able to rify matters.


    However, Mister Luo, who was a famous doctor in the city, kept shaking his head after he took thedy’s pulse.


    Wang Ruofu hurriedly asked, "What''s the matter?"


    Mister Luo retracted his hand and sighed. "The heart meridian is broken. It is a miracle she can live each day. Best prepare for the funeral."


    Wang Ruofu was so frightened that he hurriedly covered Mister Luo''s mouth, raised his head and quietly nced at the monstrous man in ck. Indeed, his face was showing a very fearsome glower, and his hands shed with silver light, as if he was about to kill someone. Fortunately, after a moment of silence, the man still did not do anything, but said coldly, "Find another doctor."


    Wang Ruofu repeatedly agreed, walked out of the house, and hurriedly summoned the military officer, Xu Dacheng, who had been quietly observing at the door.


    Xu Dacheng leaned into Wang Ruofu''s ear and whispered, "When I was in Heavenly Revtions City, this girl may not have been born yet. So, of course I’ve never seen her."


    "Then you’re as good as useless!" Wang Ruofu was about to get angry, but saw Xu Dacheng waved his hand to stop him, his expression serious. So, he could only suppress his own anger and said, "Carry on."


    Xu Dacheng sighed, his eyes full of memories of the past. "But I have seen the General-in-chief before. Back then, the General-in-Chief returned to the city victoriously from Nanzhao. He rode a tall horse with a thousand light cavalry behind him. That scene was majestic, ah! As soldiers, our hearts look forward to such moments the most! Among us Imperial Insignia Guards in Heavenly Revtions City, the most powerful person in the Beili military, with the exception of one of the Eight Pirs of State, General-in-Chief Lei Mengsha, was General Ye!"


    "Get to the point!" Wang Ruofu was sweating profusely.


    "The General-in-Chief has thick eyebrows and big eyes, he is burly, and he uses huge swords in both hands. His arms are thicker than my legs. I want to say this girl doesn’t look like him at all!" Xu Dacheng finally said what Wang Ruofu was waiting for.


    Wang Ruofu felt a little rxed in his heart. "So, she’s a fake?"


    "However…" Xu Dacheng continued, "However, during the General-in-chief’s victory parade, there was ady dressed in white next to him. She had a gentle temperament, as if she was an immortal descended from Heaven."


    "Who was she then?" Wang Ruofu frowned.


    "Naturally she was the general''s wife. The girl inside looks exactly like her!" Xu Dacheng repeated it again, "As if they were both carved out of the same mold!"


    "I fucking told you to get to the point earlier!" Wang Ruofu lifted his foot and kicked out the old soldier with his lousy mouth. "Get the advisor to quickly go find a doctor, the best doctor, even the doctor in the next city. I will send the fastest horse to bring them! If we can’t cure the person inside, we’re all done for!"


    "Yes, yes, yes." Xu Dacheng got up from the ground and responded hurriedly.


    "Back then, General-in-chief Ye Xiaoying, with three thousand soldiers and horses buried ten thousand Nanzhao troops. Yes, in the eyes of you soldiers, he’s a hero. In our eyes, that is the devil!" Wang Ruofu wiped the sweat on his forehead, looking like he wanted to cry.


    Another famous local doctor walked out of the room dejectedly, and Wang Ruofu hurried forward. "Doctor Li, you are the top genius doctor in Yuanzhi City, and even you can''t help her?"


    Doctor Li frowned and kept shaking his head. "She, she, she should already be a dead person. I have never seen a person whose heart meridian is damaged to this extent and can still live. But whoever her doctor is, they sure have magical powers, but even then, they could only temporarily protect her heart meridian. With just my little medical skills, if I want to save her, it’s truly a foolish dream."


    "That, that, that." Wang Ruofu took out a handkerchief and couldn''t stop wiping the sweat on his forehead. "Then does Doctor Li know other famous doctors in the nearby cities? Can theye and help?"


    Doctor Li sighed. "Unless the Medicine King Xin Baicao himselfes, it will be really difficult to find someone who can save thisdy."


    Wang Ruofu sat down on the ground. "The Medicine King Xin Baicao? He is the most aplished expert that even His Majesty, the Emperor, cannot find. How can I possibly find him? Heaven really wants me dead and is pouring disasters onto me. What do you say? I was sound asleep then I woke up and suddenly, a seriously ill daughter of a general appeared out of nowhere. I’m really going to meet my doom."


    "My lord, my lord. There are people outside, and someone who says they can save thisdy!" Panting harshly and carrying a paper fan, a long-bearded advisor rushed over, shouting as he ran.


    After listening to Doctor Li''s words, Wang Ruofu was already dead inside and waved his hand. "Another bunch of swindlers from the martial world? Doctor Li already said that there was no hope of saving her at all. What else can they do? Don’t tell me it’s really Xin Baicao?"


    The long-bearded advisor took out a small bottle from his sleeve and gave it to Wang Ruofu. "The man said that if it is amon minor illness, taking this pill will heal her. They won’t enter the Residence, just after it’s over, give… give them the money and it’s fine."


    Wang Ruofu took the medicine bottle and opened the cork, only to see a round pill lying inside. He couldn''t understand it and handed it to Doctor Li. He asked, "Doctor Li, is there such a pill in the world that could cure all diseases?"


    "It can''t be said that there’s no such thing. It’s impossible to say that it can cure all diseases, but there are some life-saving medicines that can temporarily suppress an injury." Doctor Li poured the pill into his hand, frowned slightly at first, and then his face paled in panic. “This… this is a Peni Pill!" He touched the pill lightly, put it in his mouth and tasted it. "It''s exactly the same as what’s written in books. It’s really… really a Peni Pill!"


    "What’s a Peni Pill?" Wang Ruofu asked anxiously.


    "The panacea from the Medicine King Hall in Heavenly Revtions. Only the most noble of the imperial family members were eligible to take this medicine. It is a treasure that was tributed to the Emperor by Xin Baicao. There were only nine bottles in total. Three bottles remained in the Medicine King Hall in Heavenly Revtions, and the remaining six bottles were given to very important people in the imperial court. How could something so precious appear here!" Doctor Li looked at the pill with obsessive eyes.


    "Why are you talking nonsense too! I''m asking you, can this cure the person inside!" Wang Ruofu no longer cared about his image, and he scolded angrily.


    Doctor Li returned to his senses and nodded. "It can definitely protect the heart meridian temporarily!” Doctor Li only felt that his hands were empty, and the pill flew out by itself. He turned his head, and saw the man in ck walk out of the room. He pinched the pill between two fingers, frowning and thinking about something.


    Wang Ruofu ran over quickly. "Noble… noble master sir, this medicine, Doctor Li said it will work!"


    The ck-clothed man nodded, reached out and handed the pill back to Doctor Li. He spoke with a respectful tone, "Thank you for your hard work, Doctor. Also, Your Excellency Prefectural Magistrate, where did you get this pill from?"


    The long-bearded advisor hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "It''s a group of people from the martial world who were passing by. They are still waiting outside the residence."


    The ck-clothed man asked again, "How many in the group?"


    "There are four people, three men and onedy."


    "Is thedy holding a spear? Among the men, is there one in red and one in blue robes?"


    "Yes, yes, yes, and there’s a man wearing a white robe with a big word “Gamble” written on the back!"


    The ck-clothed man suddenly yelled into the sky, "All of you, get in here!"
