My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 1237 1237: General Hu Lu

Arriving at the edge of Three Harmonies Valley, Ye Guichen stopped.

Brother Qiao had a pale face, glanced at Ye Guichen in shock, then suddenly turned his head and threw up violently.

Ye Guichen saw this and scratched his head, apologetically saying, "Brother Qiao, was I driving too fast?"

"Ye, I… I used to think the elders valued you too highly, felt you didn't live up to your reputation, but now… ah woo!" Another bout of vomiting.

After vomiting for a while, Brother Qiao wiped his mouth and finally straightened up: "It's alright now, I'm done vomiting. Ye, what's your plan?"

Ye Guichen's mouth twitched twice.

Although he hadn't met Brother Qiao before, he seemed quite humble.

However, Ye Guichen didn't rush to act, instead, he said softly, "Gui Tuo?"

"Hmm?" Brother Qiao pointed at his nose: "Ye, are you calling me?"

Before Brother Qiao could realize it, a ghostly figure appeared.

"Young Ye, finally remembered me, huh." Although Gui Tuo had been hiding around Ye Guichen recently, he seemed nonexistent.

He was just a Yin Soul, dealing with ordinary Innate experts was absolutely no issue, but dealing with Qi Refiners was slightly troublesome.

However, due to its special nature, it was still fine to scout for information as a spy.

Even if faced with a Qi Refinement eighth level expert, as long as Gui Tuo didn't deliberately reveal its presence, it probably wouldn't be discovered.

"Ah, a ghost!" Suddenly, Brother Qiao jumped, leaping more than ten meters away, pointing at Gui Tuo, trembling in fear.

Ye Guichen was speechless.

Gui Tuo also felt wronged: "Young Ye, do I look scary?"

Ye Guichen shook his head: "You shouldn't be scary, right?"

"Then why does he react like that?" Gui Tuo pointed at the trembling Brother Qiao.

Ye Guichen glanced at Brother Qiao: "Scared, maybe?"

"Scared? Then I must be scary, huh."

Ye Guichen was speechless: "Let's talk business."

As he spoke, Ye Guichen took out a Soul Nourishing Pill.

This pill was specially used to nourish one's soul, although Ye Guichen didn't know if it worked on ghostly beings, he could at least try.

"Gui Tuo, are you interested in this?" Ye Guichen shook the Soul Nourishing Pill in his hand.

Gui Tuo looked at the pill, and suddenly his eyes glowed, he snatched it up and took a deep sniff.

The Soul Nourishing Pill instantly shriveled.

Then, Gui Tuo, as if tasting a delicacy, closed his eyes in satisfaction for a while, then extended his hand to Ye Guichen: "Is there more?"

Ye Guichen looked at the shriveled pill, somewhat taken aback: "Did you absorb all the medicine in it?"

"Yeah, are ghosts supposed to eat regular food?" Gui Tuo retorted: "Do you have more of these pills? However many you have, I'll take them all."

Seeing Gui Tuo being straightforward, Ye Guichen took out three more: "These are all I have."

"Thanks!" Gui Tuo absorbed them all, after sucking in all three Soul Nourishing Pills, he felt content and even burped: "So comfortable, haven't felt so good in years."

Ye Guichen spoke up: "Now that you're comfortable enough, can you help find someone for me?"

"Who? Lei Long, Elder Lei."

Ye Guichen described Lei Long's appearance, then pointed towards where the Qin soldiers were in Three Harmonies Valley.

Gui Tuo patted his chest confidently: "No problem, piece of cake!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure instantly vanished.

Ye Guichen didn't act recklessly, instead, he lay on a high vantage point observing the situation in Three Harmonies Valley, waiting quietly.

Brother Qiao crept over, nervously asking: "Has the ghost left?"

"Hmm." Ye Guichen responded casually, his gaze still fixed inside the valley.

Inside, occasionally Qin soldiers and Qi soldiers patrolled.

But this time they didn't clash, just faced each other from afar before quickly retreating.

That feeling, as if they had reached an unspoken agreement.

Meanwhile, in one of the three valleys of Three Harmonies Valley.

This was the place where Qin soldiers were stationed.

A camp of three thousand men stretched over ten kilometers.

In a large tent in the middle sat a burly man.

The burly man had red beard, with several empty large bowls placed in front of him, the whole tent filled with the aroma of alcohol.

His name was Hu Lu, a genuine Qi Refinement eighth level expert, and a master of the Body Refinement Realm.

Ever since the main general under King Qin was injured by Bai Qi and fled, he was recalled by King Qin, and conveniently imprisoned.

A defeated general must be punished.

Ever since Hu Lu came, he announced to his subordinates that in three months, Dan God Sect would submit and succumb, even going to fight against Bai Qi under King Qi.

The two fought for three days and nights, with no clear winner.

Because of this, they agreed on a subtle balance, neither side would act against the other.

However, during this time, Hu Lu's actions naturally drew Bai Qi's attention.

As the main general on King Qi's side, stationed in the territory of Three Harmonies Valley, he naturally had to guard against King Qin gaining the upper hand.

But with the prior agreement, Bai Qi couldn't do anything for a while, only staying alert to Hu Lu's moves, ready to act if they made any excessive actions.

"General Hu, those people from Dan God Sect are so stubborn, yet to submit to our King Qin, shall we just attack the mountain and slaughter them?" A subordinate said with some dissatisfaction.

Hu Lu grabbed a jug of wine, tilted his head and took two gulps: "What do you know, especially at times like this, we mustn't be impatient. Hmph, I don't believe there are such stubborn people who would rather die than surrender. Relax, since I've captured Lei Long, their people from Dan God Sect surely won't sit idly by."

"But so many days have passed, yet no one's come to rescue him!" the subordinate frowned.

Hu Lu didn't care: "What's the hurry, just make sure Lei Long is watched, and capture more disciples from Dan God Sect for leverage. Hmph hmph, I don't believe Dan God Sect would abandon them!"

As Hu Lu finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head, looking outside the tent.

Then, he suddenly swung the wine jug outward: "Who's there!"

As the jug was thrown, his figure dashed out.

But after charging out, Hu Lu found no one.

"General, what's wrong?" The subordinates gathered around, vigilantly asked.

Hu Lu sniffed, snorted coldly: "Interesting, there's actually Yin energy? Hehe, what now, seems like there are ghosts lingering here!"

"Ghosts?" Everyone was shocked: "General Hu, what should we do?"

"What's there to fear, ghosts fear people with strong blood vitality, besides, I'm a lay disciple of the Daoist sect, just a few ghosts daring to mess around here?" Hu Lu waved his hand: "Go, kill two black dogs, smear black dog blood on the foreheads, I want to see what ghost dares cause trouble here!"
