Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At the end of the day, Liu Dalang was safe and sound. Lin Jie was furious. What he wanted was for Liu Dalang to die. Only when Liu Dalang died could Liu Sanniang feel heartbroken.
Liu Sanniang smiled. “Then I’ll wait and see.”
Lin Jie remembered that Liu Sanniang had already gotten someone to protect the people she cared about. He mocked coldly, “Don’t think that nothing will go wrong just because you got someone to protect them.”
As long as there was a chance, he would not let it go.
Liu Sanniang looked at Lin Jie and said calmly, “Let’s go.”
Lin Jie snorted and followed Liu Sanniang.
His bet with her was far from over.
As September came, after several months of fierce battle, the Jin soldiers were chased out. The Jin soldiers were beaten back, but before the Xia Dynasty army could catch their breath, the Yan army attacked.
It was already getting cold in the north.
They set up camp at night and needed a fire to keep them warm.
Su Yanyu, Mu Cong, and the others sat together, taking turns drinking from a wine bag.
Mu Cong raised his head and drank two mouthfuls of strong wine before handing the wine bag to Su Yanyu. “Young Marquis, your wine worm is comparable to real strong wine.”
The current Su Yanyu had completely lost the arrogance of a young man. After a few months of war, he no longer had the arrogance he had in the past.
Su Yanyu also took two gulps. When the strong wine entered his throat, it was burning. However, following that, his blood boiled from head to toe. The benefit of this wine worm was that he would not get drunk because it was not a real wine.
Su Yanyu smiled. “I’ve been refining a worm that can improve my martial arts recently. How about each of you give me a drop of your blood? I think you’ve all honed your martial arts in the army.”
The three of them were Su Yanyu’s old friends and had received his help. How could they not agree?
They immediately took out a dagger and cut their fingers. Su Yanyu also happily took the jar to receive the blood.
The meat was already cooked. Su Yanyu picked a piece up with his sword and took a bite.
Mu Cong and the others looked at each other and saw shock in their eyes.
Su Yanyu ate the hot food and said, “Why are you all looking at me? Can looking at me fill your stomach?”
After a few months of living in the army, Su Yanyu learned to eat food in big mouthfuls. There was no longer elegance in his behavior. It didn’t matter if it was hot or not. As long as he could fill his stomach, he would eat it.
While Mu Cong and the others were in shock, Su Yanyu had already finished a piece of meat and took another.
Only then did Mu Cong and the others come back to their senses and snatch one for themselves.
After eating and drinking his fill, Su Yanyu burped and lay down. He placed the back of his hand under the back of his head and slept.
Mu Cong and the others also leaned to the side to sleep. They had to rush north to support the soldiers fighting the Yan army.
After traveling for an entire day, they were extremely tired and did not even have the strength to speak. Soon, the camp was filled with snores.
At dawn, a horn sounded, urging them to hurry.
Su Yanyu took out a biscuit from his bag and ate it in a few bites. Then, he drank water from the water bag.
Mu Cong and the others also ate something to fuel their body.
Cheng Yan said, “I really can’t believe that we used to live a luxurious life.”
In the past, they were extremely particular about the food they ate and the clothes they wore.
But now, they didn’t even bother with basic etiquette. They swallowed food in big mouthfuls. They didn’t care about the taste of the food as long as the food could fill their stomach.
Li Wei smiled. “When the war is over, we can do whatever we want.”
Su Yanyu smiled. “When the war is over, I’ll travel around to collect worms.”
Su Yanyu was obsessed with refining worms. If not for the fact that there was a war going on, he would have been traveling around the world..
The climate of every place was different, and the poisonous worms refined were naturally different. Ever since Su Yanyu started learning to refine worms, he seemed to have opened a brand new door. The world inside the door was colorful and was waiting for him to explore it.
Mu Cong couldn’t help but say, “Young Marquis, if you want to travel around, will your parents agree? You’re not young anymore. I’m afraid that after the war ends, your parents will urge you to get married.”
Su Yanyu immediately glared at him. “No way. I love freedom. Who can restrain me? Marriage is boring. I’m still so young. I can have fun for another eight to ten years.”
Su Yanyu did not want to hear the word “marriage” at all. His heart belonged to someone else, and other women were no longer worthy of his attention.
However, his feeling was destined to not be reciprocated. He did not know if he would get married in the future, but at least for the time being, he did not want to.
They stopped teasing Su Yanyu and focused on traveling.
During the day, they traveled without stopping. At night, they set up camp.
Su Yanyu would find a place to collect worms at home. Along the way, he refined many worms to treat illnesses and sent some to people he was familiar with.
When he went out to collect worms, Mu Cong and the others did not follow him.
Up in the north, there were more mountains and forests, and it was more humid, which was suitable for worms to live.
Soon, Su Yanyu found a small cave. When he saw it, he immediately smiled.
It was easy to find worms in the damp cave. He felt his way in. He did not dare to walk too far, so he found a crack on the rock wall and put the jar down. He lit a black incense that was as thick as a finger.
A pungent smoke came out, and Su Yanyu waited at the side.
Soon, worms crawled over. Su Yanyu was already used to the rustling sound.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw dense worms crawling into the jar.
The sound of fighting inside the jar was also very intense. Su Yanyu smiled and muttered, “It’s a bumper harvest today.”
When it was about time, he extinguished the incense and put the lid back on. He was about to go back with the jar when his feet trembled and he suddenly lost his balance.
He was afraid that he would fall to his death, so as soon as he grabbed a vine, he held onto it tightly. His palm was cut by the vine, and it was painful.
Gradually, he lost strength. His body hit the ground with a thud. Su Yanyu felt a sharp pain in his head and instantly fainted..
