"Ms. Yu, you saved Changhe this time. What reward do you want?" Xiao Ning asked leisurely.
Yu Jiao's mind went blank for a moment. She really couldn't think of any reward to take.
"Since this man is the young leader of the Snow Plains people, he should be very wealthy, right?"
Xiao Ning smiled and said, "Of course, the Snow Plains people have a lot of good things, but the most valuable thing they have is the horse."
Xiao Ning explained, "The horses of the Snow Plains people are not only strong and brave, but also very human. They can easily cross a three or four meter cliff. They are far better than ordinary war horses. They are all trained from the wild horses on the snowy plateau. The wolf tribe has not been able to swallow up the Snow Plains people for a long time. Although it is because the Snow Plains people live in seclusion, it is also because the Snow Plains people are the best at controlling and training horses. The horses have increased their combat effectiveness."
Yu Jiao smiled when she heard this. She was not an inexperienced girl. Xiao Ning strongly recommended the Snow Plains people's horse simply because he wanted a horse trained by the Snow Plains people to equip his soldiers.
"This reward is useful to General Xiao Ning, but useless to me." Yu Jiao said bluntly, "General Xiao wants the horses of the Snow Plains people?"
Xiao Ning smiled. He was a straightforward person and nodded, "Yes, if we have the good horses of the Snow Plains people, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers will be further improved."
"It's not impossible for the general to want a horse." Yu Jiao said, "but what do you want in exchange?"
She was the one who saved the person, and Yu Jiao would not do business at a loss. It was a good thing that Xiao Ning wanted the horses of the Snow Plains people to equip the soldiers, but she could not just give away the reward for nothing without asking for any benefit for herself.
Xiao Ning laughed, "Miss Yu is a straightforward person. If you want me to exchange the Snow Plainsman's warhorse for something, as long as it is within my ability, just ask."
Gu Yun winked at Yu Jiao, who glanced at him and said, "It is said that a man of honor should stick to his word. Then I will ask General Xiao to do something for me. If I have any requests in the future, I will ask General Xiao to fulfill them."
Xiao Ning smiled brightly and agreed readily, patting Gu Yun on the back. "Stop making faces, kid. Miss Yu is smarter than you. Promises that are fulfilled in the future are the hardest to repay."
Gu Yun also laughed. He had just winked at Yu Jiao anxiously. Firstly, it was because Yu Jiao didn't know her and Ziqi's life experience yet. Secondly, he was afraid that Yu Jiao didn't know that Xiao Ning's ability to lead troops in battle would be of great use in the future. If she neglected to speak, it would give Xiao Ning an advantage.
After agreeing with Xiao Ning that he would ask Changhe, the young leader of the Snow Plains people, for the horses, Yu Jiao stood up and was about to go back to her room, but Xiao Ning suddenly stopped her.
"I recently heard something and I have something to ask Miss Yu."
Yu Jiao looked at him, "General Xiao, just ask."
Xiao Ning looked Yu Jiao straight in the eye and asked, "Did you learn your mysterious medical skills of laparotomy and stitching from Cheng Ying?"
Gu Yun was shocked. He was secretly annoyed that Xiao Ning was really bringing up the issue! He had just dealt with Yu Jiao a few days ago, and now Xiao Ning brought up the old matter again. He didn't want to endure Yu Jiao's questioning again.
Yu Jiao was also a little surprised. She had only heard from Liu Sanniang that her master taught her medical skills that could kill people. After hearing from the mute about Cheng Ying's matter and asking Gu Yun for confirmation, she naturally thought that with Cheng Ying's character of treating human life as worthless, how could he have medical skills to save people? What he taught to the original body must not be a serious medical skill, but a poisoning skill that could harm people.
Being asked by Xiao Ning at this moment, Yu Jiao's heart beat a little agitated. Cheng Yingruo also had the skills of caesarean section and stitching, so was it possible that he was from another world like herself?
But she thought that Chou Ge'er also had a scalpel in his hand, but he had only picked it up from a mass grave, and he was not from the same world as her.
Yu Jiao's heart suddenly turned cold again. She nodded, "Maybe. We have to ask Young Marquis Gu." Yu Jiao looked at Gu Yun with a clear gaze, "Young Marquis Gu might know something."
Gu Yun's back suddenly stiffened, and he didn't dare to look Yu Jiao in the eye. He cursed Xiao Ning eight hundred times in his heart, but he still didn't feel relieved.
He hesitated, "I think so... I'm not sure either. I've never seen Cheng Ying show his medical skills. I only vaguely heard that he can treat patients."
Yu Jiao looked at Gu Yun and smiled faintly with a meaningful look. It seemed that Gu Yun was still hiding a lot of things from her.
