Chapter 26 Oh no, the devil is coming
Du Wanwan not only cured his external injuries, but also improved his internal strength. For people who practice martial arts, strong internal strength is the most important.
Generally, in order to improve internal strength, one needs to take rare treasures. Du Wanwan helped him by just giving him a few bottles of medicine. He will definitely remember such a favor in his heart.
Seeing Ye Tingxiao staring at the small glass bottle, Ye Yi also took out one and stared at it carefully. After staring for a long while, he muttered to himself: "There are no flowers on it! What's so good about it? It's just a glass bottle after all."
Ye Er glared at him and pulled him to hide behind another tree: "What do you know, you rough guy? The prince is reminded of someone by the sight of the object."
"Seeing something reminds me of someone? Are you saying that the prince misses Miss Du? How could the prince be like this? He has a marriage in Kyoto."
Ye Yi was getting louder and louder, and Ye Er was afraid that he would alarm Ye Tingxiao, so he covered his mouth with his hand: "What are you shouting about? Shut up! What's wrong with having a marriage in Kyoto? Can't the prince marry a second wife?"
"Second wife?" Ye Yi opened his eyes wide and stared at Ye Er. "You, you, you, are you confused? How can you marry a second wife when the mistress hasn't even entered the house?"
Ye Tingxiao had sharp ears, so even though the two subordinates spoke in a very low voice, he still heard them. He ignored them and continued to stare at the glass bottle in a daze.
Second wife? With Du Wanwan's ability, would she easily become someone's mistress? I guess even killing her won't work. These two idiots are just gossiping for nothing.
"Why not just wait for the mistress to come in?" Ye Er glared at Ye Yi. "Besides, our young master is already nineteen years old and doesn't even have a concubine. What's wrong with marrying a second wife? If all else fails, we can bring Miss Du into the mansion to be a concubine!"
"Tsk! Your brain, I thought you were smarter than me, but now it's become a piece of tofu dregs." Ye Yi mocked Ye Er, "Who is that Miss Du? A disaster star! How dare you bring her into the mansion?
Besides, do you think she is suitable to be a concubine? If you dare to talk to her like that, I guarantee you will be slapped to death. She is a great doctor, why does she need to sell herself to be a concubine?"
Ye Er was shocked by his own stupidity, and nodded modestly: "You are right, I was thinking wrong. Miss Du is very capable. She can't be a maid, but she can be a second wife. Give her the title of a concubine, I guarantee she will be happy."
Ye Yi shook his head decisively: "Not necessarily. Miss Du is very ambitious. Even I am no match for her. Will she be willing to be someone's concubine? You think too much."
Ye Tingxiao silently despised Ye Er in his heart: You really think too much. With Miss Du's ability, she may not even be able to get the position of the mistress of Huayang Marquis, let alone the second house.
It can be seen that she is used to being free. If she is confined in a large mansion and has to engage in intrigue and conspiracy with the women in the backyard, she will definitely be impatient.
Putting away the bottle, Ye Tingxiao leaned against the tree trunk, forcing himself to have a good rest. If he didn't sleep, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on. He hadn't closed his eyes for three days and two nights.
Du Wanwan was also resting at this moment. With Aunt Hua and Seventh Sister on duty, she slept very soundly.
In the early hours of the morning, Aunt Hua screamed, "Master! Wake up, something is happening, it seems the horses are coming."
Du Wanwan woke up with an alertness, and indeed heard a slight rumbling sound beside her ears, like the sound of thunder. She lay on the ground and listened carefully, and felt that the ground beside her ears was shaking.
That was the vibration from the horses' trampling.
Oh no, we must have encountered cavalry.
"Dad! Wake up! It's bad, the enemy is coming." Du Wanwan called out to Du Jiang, and then called out to Yao Meixian, "Mom! Get up quickly and retreat to the mountains."
When she shouted like that, Yao Meixian and Du Jiang quickly stood up and called their three sons Du Wenjun, Du Wenguan and Du Wenhuo to get up.
The family was busy putting away the pots and pans. Du Wanwan instructed Du Wenjun: "Go tell Chief Huo to get the villagers to go into the mountains. If we really run into the bully, we will definitely not be their opponent."
Du Wenjun agreed and ran away. Du Wanwan went to Yu Hanyan and told the driver to drive quickly to the mountain.
The driver was so nervous that he looked at the dark jungle on both sides of the official road and asked Du Wanwan anxiously, "Where should we go?"
Du Wanwan observed for a while and pointed to the dense forest on the left: "Go there. If the carriage is difficult to enter, you can abandon the carriage and hide. Be quick and tell Sister Hanyan that this place is very dangerous. Hurry, move quickly."
Mrs. Qian in the carriage had already heard it. She didn't bother to talk to Du Wanwan. She quickly called Yu Hanyan up and told her about the situation.
Yu Hanyan believed Du Wanwan's words, but she didn't trust other people's words. She ordered the driver to go to the place Du Wanwan told her to go, and if the carriage couldn't go, they should get off and walk.
Nothing is more important than escaping.
The captain of the village protection team learned the news sent by Du Wenguan, and immediately organized people with Huo Sien to escape to the mountains. Women, children, the elderly and the weak went first, and the village protection team stayed behind.
Everyone packed up their things and followed Du Wanwan into the mountains one after another.
As soon as we entered the mountain, the cavalry came over. The rumbling sound of their hooves raised a cloud of dust. Even in the dark, we could see them clearly in the faint moonlight.
Huo Si'en was very thankful that Du Jiadalang was alert. If they were targeted by the monster, the people in their village would be in great danger.
The members of the village protection team were a step late and were discovered by the Qiezi soldiers who had arrived earlier. They chased after them on horseback and swung their swords at them.
The women in Huojia Village screamed and shouted in fear. Those were their men. If they were really injured, who would they rely on to support the family in the future?
Du Wanwan put down the wheelbarrow and handed it to Du Wenjun: "Take my parents and everyone else to the mountains. Don't worry about me. The people from Huojia Village have already fought with the Qizi Army. We must send someone to help. I am strong and have a chance of winning. Let's go, let's go."
Du Jiang and Yao Meixian also knew that at this time they had to work together with the people of Huojia Village and not hold their daughter back. But she was a girl after all, and had never seen a ferocious monster.
"Da Lang! Dad is going." Du Jiang held Du Wanwan, "Take your brothers and run to the mountains quickly. Dad will go."
Du Wanwan was impatient with Du Jiang's pestering, so she picked him up and put him on the wheelbarrow, and told her brothers: "Take good care of mom and dad, I will come back to find you."
Du Jiang wanted to speak, but Yao Meixian stopped him: "Husband! Don't say anything. Let Dalang go. She is stronger and more suitable than you."
It wasn't that she was cruel and wanted to abandon her daughter, but her daughter was right. She was strong and had a chance of winning. If her husband or someone else went, there would be no chance at all.
Instead of arguing about who should go to die, she should just listen to her daughter. She firmly believed that her daughter was a lucky star and would definitely come back safely.
Du Wenjun looked back at Du Wanwan who was walking out, his eyes bloodshot. He was the eldest son in the family, but he let his sister work for him.
He was like a coward. He didn't want to push the cart, he wanted to go kill the bastard, but his mother held him tightly, so he couldn't leave even if he wanted to.
