328: Chapter 328 We Are Bandits 328: Chapter 328 We Are Bandits “Shy?
How could that be?” Gu Youyou, who wasn’t even shy when it ca to snipping ding-dongs, had seen it with his own eyes.
Jin Zijin nodded seriously and said, “Didn’t you see her face turn red?”
Telling bald-faced lies, her face didn’t turn red at all.
Yue Rujing pulled up a stool to sit down, his deanour solemn, “Brother, if we’re in a rush to hit the road, then let General Ji pick so skilled soldiers to escort us to Lingnan with great fanfare.
If we’re not in a hurry, we can wait until our wounds heal before setting out.
What do you think?”
Jin Zijin pondered for a mont, his fingers tapping on the table intermittently, and said, “Not in a hurry, let’s wait till we’ve recovered before leaving.”
“Then in that case…” Yue Rujing started to say sothing else but paused midway, then said, “Alright, let’s do as Brother says.”
Jin Zijin said, “It’s true that General Ji would lend us n out of respect for your father, but by doing so…
your father would owe him a favor.
Moreover, secretly mobilizing troops is not easy, and if soone with ulterior motives catches wind of it, it could backfire horribly.
You’ve already caused enough trouble for your father; it’s best to be cautious.”
Yue Rujing felt indignant at his words, his mouth twitching as he said, “Weren’t those troubles all for your sake, Brother?
How can you say that I am the one who caused them?”
Jin Zijin looked at him calmly and spoke with righteous indignation, “I’ve been in Lotus Village for nearly six years without a hitch, but as soon as you ca, you attracted the attention of Xuanzong’s n.
If it weren’t for your conspicuousness attracting attention, how could they have found so quickly?”
Yue Rujing: “…”
“You coming by yourself would have been fine, but you brought a whole nest of bandits with you, giving them a legitimate reason to wipe us out.
Tell , aren’t you here to set up?”
It seed that way.
Yue Rujing with a drooping face, said, “Wasn’t that to give you face?”
Jin Zijin was left speechless, his smile ambiguous, “Sure, give face.
Wouldn’t it be even more prestigious if Ji Yuanzhong himself escorted us?”
How could that be okay?
Yue Rujing quickly shook his head and said, “No, no, Brother, stop making fun of .
Let’s recover from our injuries and slip away stealthily, humbly.”
…
While they were recuperating in Tongguan City, Gu Youyou was indeed busy.
Exactly how many n Yue Rujing had wasn’t known, but Gu Youyou had treated more than thirty of them.
Aside from five who were seriously injured, the rest were lightly wounded.
Attending to so many wounded at the sa ti was a first even if she added up her lifetis.
The kicker was that back in modern tis, not many people could command her services for such injuries; there was no need for her to get involved.
Yet, here she was, overwhelmingly busy over these minor injuries.
She missed Qin Changlin dearly; although his dical skills weren’t great, he was a good assistant.
“Youyou, take a break if you’re tired.”
Gu Youyou was still busy at night, running out of dicinal materials.
She had to write them down to have soone buy them from the nearby dicine shop the next day.
Gu Youyou said, “I’ve made it through the past few days; today’s much better already.”
Indeed, she was telling the truth.
The past few days had been hectic, but these two days, the lightly wounded didn’t need her attention anymore.
Jin Zijin said, “Tongguan has military doctors.
You should talk to Yue Rujing about this; he could just let the military doctors treat everyone.
There’s no need for you to see each one in person.”
Gu Youyou was startled, her mouth agape, almost biting her tongue, “That scoundrel Yue Rujing said that among our group, only he and I have dical skills but since he’s also wounded…
”
Er…
okay, that’s not wrong, but…
“He said our identity was that of bandits and we shouldn’t alarm the nearby garrison.”
