Chapter 297 Caught
Chapter 297 Caught
Before long, the soldiers of Fulin fled in disarray, and Fulin surrendered.
Whenever someone mentions this battle, they always show a look of horror.
They had only been near Baiyu City for less than ten miles when the vanguard soldiers were blown up.
Of course, the shield bearers behind the charging soldiers were quickly blown up by the falling debris.
They had never seen these things before and could not imagine that such things could destroy them so easily. How could they not be afraid?
So it wasn't long before news spread that a strange thing had appeared in Jin Kingdom, capable of annihilating an entire army with a single move, which was terrifying.
As the story spread throughout Fulin Kingdom, it became increasingly bizarre, and by the time all the other countries had heard of it, it had reached an unknown version.
The current version has spread to the Kingdom of Jin, where a mysterious weapon has appeared. As soon as it appears, it can kill all the soldiers without lifting a finger.
Now all countries are wary of the country of Higanbana.
Fulin Kingdom also fell silent, no longer daring to send troops to provoke Jin Kingdom.
Meanwhile, in Baiyu City, soldiers wounded on the battlefield were carried to the military camp.
The military doctors took out a strange object; they heard that this medicine had been sent from Bianjing (Kaifeng).
I only found out after asking around that this was the penicillin from the novel "Peerless Divine Doctor"!
This medicine is amazing; it can greatly reduce the injuries of these wounded soldiers.
Previously, it was difficult for people to survive if they had a fever, but now, the survival rate has been greatly increased by using this penicillin.
Of course, the casualties of the Jin Kingdom soldiers in this battle were much smaller than those of the Fulin Kingdom.
The losses suffered by the Kingdom of Fulin were enormous.
This serves as a lesson for them; such severe losses will inevitably cripple their vitality.
The emperor of Jin Kingdom wanted to press his advantage and conquer Fulin Kingdom.
However, all the senior officials were trying to dissuade him.
After all, their country is still developing and will inevitably become stronger in time. What they need to do now is to conserve their strength and build up their resources. It won't be too late to take over these neighboring countries when the time comes.
The emperor calmed down after their persuasion.
However, the emperor immediately rewarded Ye Yuwu for his research on weapons and the Imperial Medical Academy for developing penicillin.
As expected, Ye Yuwu was promoted again, but this time she was not so happy.
She always felt that something big was about to happen.
Aside from Ye Yuwu, the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital were the happiest.
But their joy didn't last long, as Ye Yuwu had them produce alcohol and allicin.
There was nothing Ye Yuwu would refuse to do.
After this incident, Ye Yuwu became highly sought after, and every government office wanted her.
Therefore, every day in the imperial court, everyone was vying for her.
The national strength of Jin Kingdom is also on the rise.
That day, Ye Yuwu came out of the teahouse and was on her way back to her residence.
Suddenly the carriage jolted. She was resting with her eyes closed inside when a person burst in. He was dressed in all black and wore a mask, so only his eyes were visible.
Before Ye Yuwu could react, she was struck on the back of the neck with a palm strike and then she passed out.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself no longer in the carriage. When she opened her eyes, she saw that she was in what appeared to be a dilapidated temple, which must have been abandoned for a long time. Weeds grew all around, and she was bound hand and foot on the ground.
Fortunately, his mouth wasn't stuffed.
She guessed that the place must be very remote, otherwise why would her kidnappers be so fearless and not afraid of her screaming for help?
Since that's the case, it's better to take a good look around. It won't be a waste of effort, and it will save you some strength so that you can find an opportunity to escape later.
However, she still doesn't know why these people brought her here.
The people who arrested her have yet to appear.
Just as Ye Yuwu was looking around at the dilapidated temple, she suddenly heard clear footsteps outside.
As she listened carefully, she could hear the voices outside gradually approaching her.
She listened intently to the conversation outside and was surprised to discover that the people outside had kidnapped her on behalf of someone else.
But she did not hear his purpose.
They stopped talking after a while, and the footsteps outside the temple became clearer, indicating that someone was approaching her.
"I'll go check on that woman."
Then someone walked in, and Ye Yuwu didn't pretend to be unconscious. Instead, she turned her head to look at the door.
The person who came was somewhat surprised to see that she was awake, but couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they saw her face.
Hearing his surprise, the people outside rushed in as well.
"What's wrong? What happened, brother?!"
Ye Yuwu never expected to see a familiar face here.
The man slapped his henchman next to him and said through gritted teeth, "Who told you to grab me, grandma!"
Sure enough, after saying that, the underlings were stunned into silence. The next second, the man ran towards her, "Oh, Grandma, it's you?"
He untied the rope from her hands, and Ye Yuwu looked at him speechlessly. "Shouldn't I be asking you that? I was just sitting in the carriage when I was suddenly kidnapped and knocked unconscious, and when I woke up I was here? What are you doing here? Weren't you in jail before?"
"Hehe, it's been so long, I've been out of jail for ages." He couldn't help but sigh as he said this. "Sigh, if it weren't for making a living, I would never have done something like kidnapping people."
"So, this isn't the first time you've done something like this?"
The burly man was startled, his eyes widening. "Grandma, how could this be! This is the first time we've ever done something like this!"
"You didn't know the person you were going to arrest was me?" Ye Yuwu asked incredulously.
"Of course I didn't know. When we were in prison, I didn't even know your name. I just thought you were a young lady from some family because the jailers treated you well. We did this because we suddenly received news that they wanted to arrest Lord Ye of the Privy Council. We didn't think too much about it at the time. We did it because someone gave us money."
Just then, Ye Yuwu's ropes were untied. He stood up, dusted himself off, and asked, "Who ordered you to arrest me?"
"This..." The big man rubbed his head. "We really don't know. The man was dressed in all black, and it was nighttime, so we couldn't see anything. They just told us to capture you and then send you to the border, where there are people to meet you."
"The border?" Ye Yuwu didn't understand the visitor's intentions.
"However, judging from that person's accent, he doesn't seem to be from Bianjing; his Central Plains dialect sounds very awkward. But from the way he speaks, it seems he wants to send you to another country."
Ye Yuwu steadied herself and said, "Although you arrested me, I am very grateful that you released me."
