Chapter 165 - Head To The Barracks
‘If Feather tries to pull out the arrow from General Feng Teng’s heart, she would be responsible if he dies! My ninth imperial uncle would surely make her pay for Feng Teng’s death!’
The physicians in the barracks may have the skills to pull out the arrow, but they knew the severe consequences of failing. In fact, if General Feng Teng died during treatment, they would immediately be sentenced to death.
If the physicians refused to perform the surgery, they would at most receive 30 strokes of paddle beating, but they surely wouldn’t lose their lives.
That was why the ordinary physicians in the army did not dare to perform the surgery.
Since the chief physician Xing Luotian had also been injured during the attack, Xiao Jiuyuan had no choice but to summon Yun Qianyu.
‘But what if General Feng Teng dies when Feather tries to pull out the arrow?’
Considering the consequences, Xiao Yechen became more and more worried for Yun Qianyu. Suddenly, he took Yun Qianyu’s hand with a determined look on his face. “Feather, just run away. Leave the capital and hide far away. Don’t come back.”
Yun Qianyu looked at him strangely, but after some thinking, she figured out what Xiao Yechen was thinking about.
“I assume General Feng Teng is highly valued by Xiao Jiuyuan and you are afraid that if he dies during the surgery, I will be killed as well.”
Yun Qianyu looked intently at Xiao Yechen and thought about how well he had been treating her.
“Xiao Yechen, why are you so kind to me?”
Xiao Yechen shook his head and replied, “At first I admired your courage and wit, daring to part ways with a useless man on the day of your wedding. After that I found out that you were living a hard life, so I decided to help you out. I’ve considered you my friend up to now so naturally, I will care about you.”
After hearing Xiao Yechen’s reason, Yun Qianyu stretched out her hand and patted Xiao Yechen’s hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
Yun Qianyu then showed a confident sneer on her face, ‘I wouldn’t say I’m good at everything, but I am confident about my medical skills.
Although Xiao Yechen is kind-hearted, where would I escape even if I wanted to run? Even if I ran, Xiao Jiuyuan would definitely send someone to arrest me.
Also, I’m not the kind of person who runs away from challenges! If I am to live here, I want to have my pride and live with dignity. I will not simply forgive all the people who have bullied me!’
“But I’m afraid…”
Before Xiao Yechen could finish speaking, Yun Qianyu had grabbed her veil and said, “Let’s go, if we’re late then General Feng Teng will surely die.”
Yun Qianyu wanted to save General Feng Teng, but not because she was afraid of Xiao Jiuyuan. In fact, she had an ulterior motive for doing this.
Although she had succeeded in cleansing her meridians and had confirmed without a doubt that she possessed innate spirit energy, if she wanted to cultivate her spirit energy, she must have a spirit energy evoking incantation. This was basically a book which guided the person into connecting with their spirit energy. Only when she had connected with and become aware of how her spirit energy worked could Yun Qianyu cultivate it at will.
There were also good and bad spirit energy evoking incantations. Good ones would completely connect the person with their own spirit energy.
Since Xiao Jiuyuan had a lot of resources, Yun Qianyu decided it may be a good idea to help him.
Xiao Yechen quickly followed behind and Hua Mei also came along.
Naturally, the marten also followed Yun Qianyu without hesitating. He didn’t want his master to be bullied.
However, after taking a few steps, Yun Qianyu ordered for Hua Mei to stay behind. Since Hua Mei didn’t know martial arts, it was pointless and even dangerous for her to come along.
However, before they had gotten much further they again stopped. Little Bell had thought of something and said, “Hold on, let me grab something.”
