Three days later, Gu Yuzhi finally regained consciousness. He opened his eyes groggily and turned his head to look outside.
There was no one in the inner room, but the floor heating was blazing, making the whole room warm and cozy. If it weren't for the strong smell of medicine in the room, Gu Yuzhi would have doubted that going to the Northern Barbarians was all a dream.
He lay quietly for a while, and couldn't help but think of what Judge Qin and Chief Secretary Xie had said.
The entire prefecture achieved a great victory, and not only that, the Northern Barbarians were forced to submit, ensuring at least twenty years of peace in the northern deserts.
This trip to the Northern Barbarians was in winter and very dangerous, so we didn't find any wheat. Once he recovers, we'll have the Northern Barbarians look for it for him; they're sure to find it!
When he thought of wheat, he naturally thought of Wen Shu and the other person.
Gu Yuzhi suddenly opened his eyes, and after a long pause, he silently asked, "Manager Wen, Teacher Shu?"
If he had shouted like that before, he would have heard a crackling sound and heard Wen Shu and the other person appear.
But now, he has called out five or six times, but that familiar, strange voice has not sounded, nor have Wen Shu and the other person appeared.
Gu Yuzhi's eyes suddenly reddened: "Teacher Shu, Manager Wen! Where did you go? I'm still alive, why did you leave?"
He did say goodbye, but at that time he thought he would die in the Northern Di.
But he's not dead yet, so why have the two of them disappeared?
Gu Yuzhi gripped the quilt tightly with her small hands, biting her lower lip hard, looking pitiful and helpless.
Having spent day and night together, he and Wen Shu had already developed a deep bond. Although he knew they would leave, he never expected them to leave so quietly.
Gu Yuzhi almost bit his teeth to keep from bursting into tears, only silently calling out to the two of them over and over again.
I don't know how long I shouted, but suddenly light appeared in my mind, which had been completely dark.
Gu Yuzhi looked up with great joy, but instead of seeing Wen Shu and the other person, he saw a strange object with characters appearing on it. Upon closer inspection, Gu Yuzhi realized it was Teacher Shu's handwriting.
"Young Prince, it is as if I am seeing you in person upon reading this letter."
Gu Yuzhi's previously restrained emotions completely collapsed when he saw this sentence.
Because he knew that those words meant they would never see each other again.
Gu Yuzhi hugged the quilt and cried loudly, his hands tightly gripping the quilt, his face red from crying. After a while, he held his breath and looked down with teary eyes.
"Young Prince, I've had a wonderful time with you. Wen Xiuzhu and I have returned to the main system to choose new missions! I hope you'll be happy every day from now on."
"Once the young prince recovers, remember to go to the Northern Di territory to find wheat!"
Teacher Shu's session ended there. The pale blue light gradually disappeared, replaced by a white light with a line of words written on it.
"Wen Xiuzhu and Shu Xiaohan, use mission points to save Gu Yuzhi's life and return to the newbie training camp for further training..."
Gu Yuzhi blinked, staring at the passage repeatedly, his mind a complete blank. After a long while, he silently asked, "Who are you? What do you mean by this? You're asking for my survival? What training camp?"
He was so panicked that he couldn't stand up. His heart was pounding in his chest. His little hands instinctively gripped the quilt tightly. He stared intently at the white light until his eyes started to hurt and tears streamed down his face.
A flash of white light, followed by a series of words: "You were supposed to die. Wen Shu and the other person used mission points to give you a chance to live. However, because they went against the main brain's will and developed strong feelings for the host, they have been returned to the novice camp. Only when they have enough points can they choose a host again..."
Gu Yuzhi read it twice in a row, and the words disappeared one by one. The white light also disappeared completely, and Gu Yuzhi's mind returned to darkness. Then, this seemingly endless mind completely disappeared.
He knew that this so-called main brain system had completely severed its connection with him.
From this moment on, he truly had nothing to do with Manager Wen and Teacher Shu anymore!
As soon as Xie Changshi approached, he heard Gu Yuzhi's wailing. He rushed in, pushed open the door, and held Gu Yuzhi anxiously, asking, "Your Highness, is it hurting somewhere?"
The man called Hu Qu Tiele was so strong that even Mr. Huo could hardly match him. His curved sword slashed across and broke three of the prince's ribs.
Chief Secretary Xie thought Gu Yuzhi was crying because of physical pain, so he hugged him tightly: "Your Highness, please don't get excited, please don't get excited! Your body is still immobilized with a wooden board. If you move too violently, it is very likely to damage your internal organs."
Even Imperial Physician Qin said it was a miracle that His Highness was still alive!
Putting aside the power of the curved sword used by the Tiele, it was truly a miracle that the broken ribs didn't pierce the young prince's internal organs, even though they carried Gu Yuzhi back all the way on a snowy night.
Gu Yuzhi's face flushed red from crying, and he was short of breath. The pain that had been suppressed suddenly erupted, and his face turned deathly pale. His whole body trembled involuntarily.
He looked up at Chief Secretary Xie, his thin face barely covered by skin, his eyes appearing even larger: "Chief Secretary Xie, all my divine teachers are gone. They all left to save me!"
He didn't know anything about this system or any newbie training camp; he only knew that Manager Wen and Teacher Shu had used their mission points from the past two years to save his life.
He still remembers that Ms. Shu's biggest wish was to accumulate full marks as soon as possible so that she could go back and spend more time with her children and parents.
And then there's Manager Wen. Manager Wen has reflected on his lack of care for his family and is thinking about getting along better with them when he gets back...
He dragged them down. If he had known it would turn out this way, he should have severed ties with them before going to the Northern Barbarians.
Because of the pain, Gu Yuzhi even cried cautiously, not daring to breathe too loudly: "Master Xie, I haven't finished the task that Teacher Shu and Manager Wen assigned me yet..."
Wheat hasn't been found yet, and he hasn't become a royal merchant. Why aren't the two of them coming back?
Gu Yuzhi pouted, feeling extremely aggrieved. He wanted to say something, but his emotions were so intense that he couldn't bear it and fell into a deep sleep again.
Only then did Chief Secretary Xie breathe a sigh of relief. Thinking about what the young prince had just said, he finally understood why the young prince had survived the heavy blow from the Tiele army and why he had returned to the northern desert alive despite having several broken ribs.
At this moment, Xie Changshi kept bowing to Wen Shu and the other person in his heart, and even thought that he would build a temple in Xinliang in the future to support the two of them.
Xie Changshi carefully placed Gu Yuzhi back on the bed, then turned and strode off to find Qin Yuanpan.
His Highness's crying might have dislocated his ribs. If his internal organs were damaged, then it would be the end for him!
