Chapter 805 Neither Male nor Female
Lin Yuesha clenched her fist, her heart aching sharply.
Madam Xu was not as carefree as she appeared; the fact that she could say such things meant that her heart had already died once.
No mother doesn't love her child, especially since Xu Da was captured while trying to save Lady Xu. However, with the war between the two countries, the slightest mistake could disrupt all plans and lead to failure.
Rationally, Lin Yuesha understood Madam Xu's decision.
However, emotionally, Lin Yuesha couldn't accept it. Although she often tricked Xu Da, she really treated him like an older brother.
Where is Uya?
Chaos is brewing in Wucheng, and the city lord cannot handle it alone. He urgently needs Wuya's help.
"I went to the alien race with Qi Heng."
Luo Wang shrugged. One man for one city. It's easy to see how important Xu Da is to Wu Ya.
Lin Yuesha sat in the chair, frowning, her mind a jumble. She wanted to help, but found herself powerless.
"Your Highness, the foreign general Helian Cheng is leading several hundred men and is beating drums and challenging us not far from the city gate of our Great Qi."
A soldier came in to report that, according to the guards on the city wall, the other party seemed to be there for Xu Da.
What did they do to my cousin?
Lin Yuesha swayed, barely managing to steady herself, her heart leaping into her throat once more.
"We haven't heard from Qi Heng, but instead, people from other races have come to our door first. That's interesting."
The Prince of Luo stood up and said to Lin Yuesha, "You don't know this yet, do you? You are now a lucky charm incarnate. Come with me to the city wall and see what's going on."
Lin Yuesha smiled wryly. Because of this joke, the village chief had teased her, saying things like, "How could you turn a bubble into food?"
Reality forces people to grow up. Before, Lin Yuesha knew nothing but cooking, but now she can even tell the story of Journey to the West.
The two headed straight for the city wall. The soldiers they encountered along the way all looked at Lin Yuesha with hopeful eyes, as if her appearance could immediately solve the problem.
Along the way, the soldiers' eyes were filled with expectation, which made Lin Yuesha's scalp tingle. She especially wanted to know which bastard had flattered her, leaving her in a dilemma and forced to work like a slave.
This tactic is used way too skillfully!
"Uncle, who exactly spread the rumor that I am a reincarnated lucky koi fish?"
Isn't this blatantly a trap? From now on, we won't have to fight against foreign tribes anymore; all the soldiers can just kneel down and worship her, waiting for her to command the wind and rain.
Lin Yuesha puffed out her cheeks; she had to find this person.
"Who else could it be but Xu Da?"
Luo Wang subtly tricked Xu Da again, so he wasn't exactly lying.
At first, Xu Da talked to his men about the down jackets, zippers, backpacks, and instant noodles made by Lin Yuesha. He said that he had met a member of the Wei family on the road and the backpack had saved his life, so he was extremely grateful to Lin Yuesha and thought she was a lucky charm incarnate.
Xu Da made the remark casually, but someone with ulterior motives cut off the first half, leaving only the koi fish in the world, and embellished it into something almost mythical.
The scheming person was Qi Heng, but Luo Wang and Qi Heng had a cooperative relationship. In order to avoid being schemed against by someone with a narrow mind, he betrayed Xu Da.
"Is it too late for me to get down from the city wall now?"
Lin Yuesha stopped, stomped her foot, and said angrily, "I'm not saving her!"
She knew she had been tricked, but she never expected that the mastermind behind it all was her cousin, whom she had always been thinking about!
Forget it, let's rescue Xu Da and bring him back. Then we'll torture him severely so he can experience what it's like to go from a desperate situation to hell.
"When a woman gets ruthless, she can be truly ruthless."
The Prince of Luo couldn't help but sigh, feeling apologetic towards Xu Da.
He made a decision in his heart: the alien race had no use for Xu Da, but if the conditions were right, he would definitely redeem him.
Not only because Xu Da was a brother, but also because the Prince of Luo was very interested in Lin Yuesha's story of going to hell after surviving a desperate situation.
"Young Madam, please wear this."
A young-looking city guard, wearing a helmet and a black face mask, spoke with a ruddy complexion.
"Oh, isn't it unsafe?"
Lin Yuesha pondered that the city gate was at least several tens of meters high, so it shouldn't be easy to hit anything thrown up there.
"That's not how it works."
After a moment's hesitation, the soldier mustered his courage and whispered, "You're a lucky charm incarnate. What if some foreigners see your face and they benefit from your good fortune?"
Lin Yuesha: ...
Okay, she wears it.
Fully armed, Lin Yuesha followed behind Luo Wang, standing at a corner of the city wall.
"Lord Luo, are you a woman? You need to wash and dress up before you come out."
At the city gate, the leader, in order to stand out, wore a flamboyant red suit of armor. Since they were far apart, Lin Yuesha could tell that the other person was handsome.
"Just because of the distance, he's not much better than Qi Heng with that pockmarked face."
Prince Luo held his teacup, offering no rebuttal to Helian Cheng's cursing.
"Young Madam, that flamboyant woman in red is Helian Cheng, one of the chief generals of the alien race."
The King of Luo did not answer. A soldier beside him eagerly introduced Lin Yuesha to Helian Cheng, saying that the idea of burning the grain fodder was his own, as Helian Cheng was cunning and treacherous.
This person is very cunning and ruthless. His challenge this time suggests that the alien races have made new moves.
"I think he's neither male nor female, he looks like a eunuch."
Lin Yuesha covered her ears with her hands. Helian Cheng's voice was effeminate, not quite the gentle beauty of a woman, and in short, it was uncomfortable to listen to.
"Young Madam, you truly are a lucky charm reborn! You even know this!"
The soldier gave Lin Yuesha a thumbs-up, expressing his utmost admiration.
Previously, some people questioned the title of "lucky charm" bestowed upon General Qi's wife, and he had to thoroughly refute those who questioned it.
His family was from the border town and used to trade with other ethnic groups. His aunt's uncle's grandson had dealt with Helian Cheng.
Helian Cheng preferred men, and to show his determination never to marry, he castrated himself!
This is a secret, known to very few, and he's not a gossip, so he's too lazy to talk about it.
Such a secret was seen through by the young general's wife at a glance!
Lin Yuesha: ...
Coincidence, it's all just a coincidence!
"Xiao Chengyu, I've been waiting for your men for days. Xu Da is in our hands, so why hasn't your Great Qi shown any sign of support?"
After Helian Cheng finished speaking, he snapped his fingers, and then two soldiers stepped forward to escort a man wearing chains and a black hood over his head.
"What kind of reward do you want? So you think we have to give you a gift just because you arrested someone?"
The Prince of Luo remained silent, then gave a wink to a junior officer beside him, who immediately retorted.
"Xu Da has been brought to you. His fate depends on the sincerity of your Great Qi."
Helian Cheng laughed and said, "I know you brothers are very close. You can't fool me if you pretend not to care!"
Therefore, pretending is useless. Xu Da is dispensable to them. If they can't get what they want, they'll send him to the afterlife immediately. After all, keeping him takes up space and wastes food.
"He brought my cousin with him?"
Lin Yuesha stared intently at the person wearing the hood; the person's head remained drooping, obscuring their face.
