Master Zhang Wu took out a handkerchief and wiped the phlegm from his eyes, revealing a genial smile. "Third Prince, I won't argue with you. How can you die so easily?"
He walked over with a chuckle, and his voice was gentle.
"The master said that you will tell us sooner or later. We have plenty of time to waste with you." When he said the second half of the sentence, Master Zhang Wu pulled the iron chain in his hand and shook it.
The iron chain rubbed back and forth against the third prince's scapula, and his face became paler and paler.
The veins on his forehead were exposed.
His toothless gums clenched his jaw tightly, and a low growl of pain emanated from his throat.
The heart-wrenching pain nearly made him faint.
Someone came and pried open his lips and poured the magic water into him.
A slap hit his face. "Hold on, I want to see how tough you are."
The third prince's clothes were soaked with cold sweat. After drinking the magic water, he became energetic again, but the pain in his scapula made him kneel on the ground and could only growl continuously.
The low roar continued to echo in the cave.
At night.
Originally, the moon was still diligently on duty in the sky. Who knew that in the middle of the night, it skipped work to go see Chang'e and fall in love.
Just skip work, and find someone to cover for you.
Look, the north wind got stronger overnight.
In the second half of the night, snowflakes began to fall on Hulu Mountain.
Su Qi felt a little cold in her sleep. There was a stove next to her. She quickly rolled over to the heat and huddled herself in it.
Gu Beiheng was half asleep when he noticed Su Qi, who wished she could be as far away from him as rivers, lakes and seas, moving towards him.
She disdainfully pried his hands apart and tucked herself in. He amusedly held Su Qi in his arms, and the temperature outside seemed to drop suddenly.
Gu Beiheng's heart tightened, and he pulled the fox fur blanket beside the bed and covered Su Qi with it.
Fortunately, there are countermeasures in the Wolf Tooth Cave.
Even though this is only the first day.
But everyone worked quickly and had already chopped a lot of firewood.
There are enough nitrated furs, even if they are not made into clothes, they can still be used as quilts.
Gu Beiheng was awakened by the sound of continuous knocking on the door. Hearing the length of the knocks, he knew that Zhou Tianbao had returned with news.
He got up quietly and took another quilt to cover Su Qi.
Then he walked out.
"To the meeting room."
Gu Beiheng spoke in a cold voice and walked towards the conference room.
Noodles were cooking in the kitchen. Zheng Suo prepared the meat sauce according to the recipe. He added the meat sauce to the noodles and two poached eggs.
Each person was brought into the meeting room with a large bowl.
Zhou Tianbao told Gu Beiheng what he had gathered, and the other two followed Master Zhang Wu down the mountain.
He came back first to report the news.
Gu Beiheng raised his hand and tapped the table lightly, his brows furrowed.
"More than a dozen people went in, along with a dozen squirming sacks. There looked to be women or young men in there, but only people dressed as police officers came out."
"What secret is this place?"
"Zhou Tianbao, bring a few more men and keep an eye on this place. We must also find their facility. No matter who comes out, we must track them down to the end."
"Yes. I'll arrange it right away." Zhou Tianbao said with a fist salute.
Gu Beiheng raised his hand. "No rush. Eat the noodles first. We'll start the surveillance tomorrow. Keep your tiger-skin clothes on for now. I'll also give each of you an emergency kit."
The idea of the emergency bag was inspired by the mountaineering bag that Gu Beiheng saw in Su Qi's space.
You can carry various emergency equipment inside.
A few people ate noodles first before starting to discuss.
Gu Beiheng asked everyone to hurry up and do what Su Qi had told them to do. At the same time, they should speed up the attack on other hills.
Gu Beiheng didn't return to the room until a layer of snow covered the outside.
He lit a pot of silver charcoal in the room and didn't get into bed until he was warm.
Wait until Su Qi woke up the next day.
The room was warm, and she saw the charcoal brazier at a glance.
Look at the thick jacket and skirt on the stool next to it, and the crane cloak with white fox lining and bright red feather gauze.
Su Qi knew that the weather was starting to get colder.
She got up and put on her clothes. The shoes she wore were also winter snow boots. They were just covered by the long cotton coat, and the crane cloak on top made them invisible.
As soon as I walked outside, a cold wind blew in my face.
Xiao Taozi came over with a hand warmer in her hand, "Madam, please take the hand warmer. It's snowing outside. This is the first time I've seen snow."
Little Taozi's cheeks were frozen red, but the little girl just found the snow scene fresh and interesting.
She handed the hand warmer to Su Qi, chuckled, and walked out. "Madam, I'm going to have a snowball fight first."
Su Qi waved her hand and went to the west hall for breakfast. A bowl of soaked rice, a few side dishes like stir-fried lean meat with pickled cucumbers, a plate of steamed buns, and a plate of rice cakes.
Su Qi ate some rice porridge and pickled cucumbers, and then ate a piece of rice cake and stopped eating.
She went out and first checked on the soldiers' old illnesses.
Many people cannot adapt to this sudden change in weather.
"Master. I first prepared two kinds of decoctions according to what you said. For people with stubborn old diseases, decoctions are not effective." When Doctor Xiong saw Su Qi coming over, he quickly put down what he was doing and came to greet him.
"We're going to burn some charcoal to keep them warm today. I have some incense made with mugwort. I'll add it to the charcoal and give them acupuncture first."
While Su Qi was talking, she went to see Wei Dagou first.
Wei Dagou leaned against the bunk bed, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. Seeing Su Qi coming over, he smiled and said, "Madam, I'm much better now. Before, I was afraid that I would have bitten my lip by now."
