It's perfectly normal for martial arts practitioners to be curious about such questions.
"Master Quan's internal strength is truly profound. When he faced those pirates, he didn't even need to draw his sword; his whip crippled all five of them," another lieutenant said with great admiration.
"Yes, it's a pity that even with our third-rate skills, we couldn't figure out what kind of weapon caused the bloody holes on that pirate leader's body after examining it for a long time. The wounds weren't all the same, and they didn't look like throwing knives or darts. So, I'm taking the liberty of asking you, Master Quan." The first to ask clasped his hands in a fist salute.
The five survivors and one corpse brought back that day, after the serious interrogation, everyone was curious about what kind of weapon caused the wounds on the survivors and the bloody holes on the corpse.
Of course, it would be simpler to just ask those few survivors directly.
But isn't everyone just being silly? Asking for the answer directly would ruin the fun!
Finally, unable to figure it out, they went to the people who had seen Quan Jinghuai that day and learned that he carried a sword and a whip at his waist.
The wounds on the five survivors were clearly not caused by a sword, but by a whip.
Upon further examination of the wounds on the survivors, everyone was shocked.
Look, this is a true martial arts master. With the power of his whip, imbued with internal energy, he can easily cripple a martial artist. His wrist and shoulder blades are shattered, the kind of fractures that even a divine physician couldn't set back.
However, even after questioning the five survivors, they couldn't get any information from the bloody holes on the pirate leader's body.
They said it was nighttime, and they were in so much pain from their serious injuries that they couldn't care less about anything else.
After hearing this, Quan Jinghuai looked at the two of them speechlessly, not knowing what to say.
The five wounded pirates were first interrogated about their hideout, how many pirates they had, and other detailed questions. Later, the curious soldiers questioned them about the weapons that caused their wounds. Even so, they didn't mention whether the person who crippled them or killed their leader was a woman.
Yes, the first thing they wanted to know during the interrogation was about the pirates, so that they could understand the situation in more detail and make it more reliable to wipe out the pirates and destroy their stronghold.
As for who these six unlucky pirates were defeated by, that's completely unimportant.
As for the subsequent questioning out of curiosity, the people in the military camp probably never connected this matter with the disciples' "mother".
Whether it was due to panic, tension, or male pride, the five pirates were remarkably united in their silence and did not mention her at all!
Quan Jinghuai sighed inwardly. No one dislikes being admired and respected, but these two generals in front of him had misunderstood and admired the wrong person!
"I'm sorry, that's a secret weapon unique to our sect, only used when absolutely necessary, and it's not convenient for me to tell you." Quan Jinghuai disliked lying, but now he had no choice but to tell the truth.
When Hong Xiaoduo came here, her intentions were very clear: she just wanted to freeload a meal and find out some gossip about the bandit suppression.
Quan Jinghuai had no choice but to accept the misunderstanding without offering any explanation.
The reason for giving this explanation was not to create mystery. If I didn't say it this way, what if these two generals asked me to show them what I was capable of on the spot?
He doesn't have the ability to pierce a tree trunk with a single pebble!
General Mu and his two subordinates didn't think much of Quan Jinghuai's words, because each sect and faction in the martial arts world has its own rules.
"So that's how it is, Master Quan, let me offer you a toast." One of the generals didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he picked up his wine cup and stood up.
Quan Jinghuai also stood up and drank from his wine cup.
People at the next table also came over to offer their toasts.
Seeing the situation, Hong Xiaoduo thought to herself that even if Brother Quan had a high alcohol tolerance, he wouldn't be able to keep up if things continued like this.
After thinking about it, I decided to try entering the space in front of everyone.
As it turned out, they actually succeeded in getting in.
Hong Xiaoduo quickly went to the storage cabinet and searched through the medicine compartment, and actually found some hangover medicine for her.
I felt like there were a few more things on the shelf than last time I came in, but I didn't have time to look closely. I quickly left with the medicine bottle in my hand.
After leaving the space, seeing that the children at the same table and Fei Yan looked normal, it meant that none of them had noticed her abnormality. Hong Xiaoduo looked down at the thing she was holding, quickly glanced at the instructions, and then made a fake motion as if she were taking something out of the brocade bag.
Then, in front of the children and Feiyan, he pulled out the stopper and poured out a pill.
"Tian Shu, your master is almost drunk by them. Go and take this pill to him right away. Make sure you don't reveal what kind of medicine it is, understand?" Hong Xiaoduo instructed.
Tian Shu nodded, stepped forward to take the medicine, and strode towards his master.
He also saw the soldiers frequently toasting his master, and he was worried that his master would get drunk.
As expected of her, she is meticulous and thinks things through very thoroughly; she even prepared medicine to cure hangovers.
Hong Xiaoduo had no idea that simply asking Tian Shu to deliver a hangover cure had greatly enhanced Tian Shu's image in that boy's mind.
Seeing that everything in front of him, whether people or objects, was appearing as double images, he knew very well that he was doomed; he couldn't hold his liquor and was drunk.
But seeing soldiers approaching, he thought to himself that he wasn't afraid of getting drunk and would drink as much as he wanted.
But he was afraid that he would lose control if he got drunk!
It's not shameful for a man to get drunk when he's out, but he's a master with seven disciples now, not a greenhorn. He still needs to maintain a perfect image as a master in front of his disciples.
What should I do? Make up an excuse to go to the bathroom and avoid it?
Or should I just pretend to be unconscious and slump on the table right now? Although doing so might make me a laughingstock among the military.
However, once I leave here, I won't have to pretend anymore. I can also tell my disciples that I'm a little drunk, but if I drink any more, I definitely won't be able to handle it, so it's better to pretend to be drunk.
Quan Jinghuai was struggling with this when he suddenly heard his disciple's voice: "Master, it's time to take your toothache medicine."
He recognized him; it was his eldest disciple, Tian Shu. But, a toothache? Time to take medicine?
Tian Shu originally intended to just send it over to his master, but seeing his master's current state, he realized he was already drunk!
"Master, open your mouth, ah." Tian Shu changed his mind, remembering how Hong Xiaoduo coaxed Yao Guang to take her medicine.
The eldest disciple told him to open his mouth, so Quan Jinghuai opened his mouth subconsciously, and the next moment something was stuffed into his mouth.
"Master, have some tea to soothe your palate." After successfully putting the medicine into his master's mouth, Tian Shu picked up the teacup beside his master and fed him again.
Although Quan Jinghuai is still unsure what was fed to him, and what the toothache medicine is all about.
However, the food that the eldest disciple personally fed him couldn't possibly be poison...
