Chapter 462 Terrifying, Strange People

Ji Qingwu smiled at Gao Zhaoyue, her eyes crinkling as she showed off the silver hairpin.

"The spider worm raised with your blood is terrified of this hairpin. If I'm not mistaken, you're terrified of it too."

As she spoke, the hairpin, gleaming silver in the moonlight, approached Gao Zhaoyue's neck. Her once smooth and flawless skin rapidly withered and aged, and brown spots appeared on it.

"Take it away! Take it away!" Gao Zhaoyue said in a state of extreme fear.

Ji Qingwu didn't want to ruin such a stunningly beautiful face, so she withdrew her hand and said with a smile, "Then please."

Gao Zhaoyue said warily, "Stay away from me."

Li Yuzong immediately glared and said, "You're about to die, and you still dare to speak disrespectfully to our Miss Ji!"

Gao Zhaoyue rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Ji Qingwu whispered, "Eunuch Li, it's because the thing in my hand is too close to her, causing her Gu technique to fail."

After saying that, she retreated several feet away. Gao Zhaoyue glared at Li Yuzong, her hands behind her back facing the sky, and she twisted her body in a strange posture.

About fifteen minutes later, the herd of beasts surrounding the military camp scattered and fled.

The wolf pack let out a long howl, seemingly celebrating their victory. The wolf cub beside Ji Qingwu also howled and affectionately rubbed against her skirt.

The black eagle's swooping motion came to an abrupt halt. Chi Rui's sword, unable to retract in time, grazed its wing. With a thud, the eagle landed on Chi Rui's head, leaving him dazed and disoriented.

Seeing this, Ji Qingwu said, "Thank you."

A strange feeling rose in Gao Zhaoyue's heart. This girl actually thanked her. How stupid! She snorted coldly.

Ji Qingwu walked to Chi Rui's side and said, "Deputy General Chi, could you please take a count of which soldiers are injured, and also the wolves outside the camp? Bring all the injured ones back, and let the little wolf accompany you."

After an incense stick has burned.

Gao Zhaoyue's hands and feet were chained to a stone pillar in the empty training ground, and Li Yuzong was specifically responsible for keeping an eye on her.

Gao Zhaoyue thought she had been arrested and would be interrogated or even tortured, but she didn't expect that she would not receive any attention from Ji Qingwu at all.

Ji Qingwu sat on a high platform in the training ground and began to prepare medicine and see patients.

Most of the soldiers' wounds were inflicted by black hawks, either scratched or pecked, and were mostly on their upper bodies. All that was needed was to stop the bleeding and clean the wounds.

Facing a group of men with bare arms, Ji Qingwu did not feel uncomfortable. It was as if she did not distinguish between genders. She bent her neck and carefully applied medicine to them and neatly bandaged them.

The soldiers lined up and received her treatment in an orderly manner; without exception, each of them was blushing.

Ji Qingwu's appearance was outstanding even in Lin'an, let alone in the northern military camp where even girls were rare.

Even knowing that she was the one Emperor Wusu loved, they couldn't help but have fantasies about her.

Ji Qingwu's gaze was gentle, her body exuded the fragrance of medicine, and her eyes held a moist and peaceful light.

Gradually, the soldiers were also infected by her calm and peaceful demeanor, and dared not to disrespect her in the slightest.

The wolves' injuries were even more severe, with the alpha wolf suffering the most serious wounds, but fortunately none were fatal.

The mother wolf anxiously circled around the wolf king, licking its wounds with her tongue, while Ji Qingwu used his arm to separate the mother wolf from him.

She met his eerie green eyes and said gently, "Little wolf, don't worry, leave it to me."

The little wolf then rested its head on Ji Qingwu's lap, watching her apply medicine to the wolf king.

The wound was more serious than Ji Qingwu had imagined, so deep that the bone was visible. She prepared a new medicinal mud and added wound medicine to speed up the healing process.

Ji Qingwu and the wolf king exchanged a glance, and she carefully pulled its furry paws in front of her. Two of the wolf's claws were broken. She changed to a small brush and carefully applied the medicine between its toes.

The wolf king's nose twitched a few times, as if trying to remember her scent.

While the wolf king wasn't looking, Ji Qingwu secretly squeezed his oversized paw pads, which were incredibly bouncy. She smiled contentedly and lowered her head to tidy up the bottles and jars.

All of this was observed by Gao Zhaoyue, who suddenly said, "You are a really strange person, the strangest person I have ever met."

Ji Qingwu didn't look up, but sorted the bottles by color and put them away, saying, "What's strange about it?"

Gao Zhaoyue said, "You personally applied medicine to these soldiers? Do you know your place?"

Ji Qingwu took out a clean gauze and said, "What is my identity? Besides, what is the relationship between the two? They are injured, and I happen to know a little about medicine. I can help, that's all."

Gao Zhaoyue really couldn't understand her. Based on her past experience in Xijin Palace, Yuwen Shuo had betrayed everyone in the world, but he truly loved Empress Xiao. He would even get angry if Empress Xiao's hands got dusty. Empress Xiao would never lower herself to do such futile things.

Gao Zhaoyue asked incredulously, "The Emperor of Beili is willing to give you his life, how can you be so self-deprecating?"

Ji Qingwu said, "I am a human being, and they are human beings too. No one is inferior to anyone."

"Treating people is one thing, but you have to get involved with this wolf too? Aren't you being a little too compassionate?" Gao Zhaoyue said. "No matter what, it's still a wolf. If you use your arm to block it, aren't you afraid it will bite your arm off?"

Ji Qingwu's eyes darted around, and she said with amusement, "Why are you so concerned about me all of a sudden? If I remember correctly, just a quarter of an hour ago, you were going to show me what you're capable of."

Ji Qingwu raised an eyebrow at her: "You should be glad I'm so compassionate, otherwise you would be dead by now."

Gao Zhaoyue was silent for a moment, then said, "Are you interested in joining our Tianyue Clan? We have many secret techniques that I can pass on to you."

Ji Qingwu paused, looking at her in surprise, and said, "You just said I was self-deprecating, and now you want me to go to your Tianyue Clan? I think you're the really strange one."

Gao Zhaoyue had never seen anyone like her before.

It's strange, the strange thing is that in all her more than forty years of life, she has never met such a kind-hearted person.

But it also attracts attention, as if looking at it a few more times will warm your heart.

Ji Qingwu gently poked the little wolf's ear. The mother wolf twitched her ears, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Luckily, it's just a superficial wound."

She continued cleaning the cracks in the wolf cub's ears.

Seeing that she was being ignored, Gao Zhaoyue said angrily, "I was just saying it casually. If you don't want to, then forget it."

Ji Qingwu ignored her and continued with her work until she had finally treated the wounds of the people and wolves around her.

Gao Zhaoyue looked up at her indifferently.

Ji Qingwu scanned the surroundings and called out, "Deputy General Chi."

Gao Zhaoyue turned her head back.

Chi Rui said, "Your subordinate is here!"
