Gu Han didn’t make Lin Suisui and Lu Ze wait too long. Around sunset the next day, Gu Han finally brought back the unconscious Consort, Molevin.
It was only after Lin Suisui approached that she realized that Consort Molevin wasn’t the only one who was injured this time. Even Gu Han was seriously injured.
Although most of the guards Gu Han had brought over this time had returned, most of them were injured. Gu Han’s arm was also injured. He helped Molevin take two stabs. Fortunately, although the injuries looked terrifying, they were only superficial wounds.
After checking and seeing that there was no serious wound, Lin Suisui arranged for the accompanying doctors to help Gu Han and the injured guards bandage their wounds while she focused on treating Molevin.
Unlike Gu Han and the others, Molevin’s condition was much more serious. Not only were there obvious knife wounds and penetrating wounds from arrows, but she had also been poisoned by Nina.
Lin Suisui didn’t know much about the tame head technique, but because this technique was of the same origin as the parasite technique, although she couldn’t find a solution for the time being, she could find a way to suppress it.
After receiving the news that Molevin had been saved, Wulan, who was recuperating, was the first to lose her cool.
She was unwilling to lie down anymore and insisted on coming over to see the Consort first.
“When will your injuries completely recover if you keep this up?” When Lin Suisui received the news, she came over and said to Wulan angrily, “The Consort is not in good health now, so she needs someone to take care of her!
Not only will you not be of any help, but you’ll also cause trouble!
If you’re really worried about the Consort, then recuperate. When you recover, you can personally take care of the Consort!”
“Is the Consort’s condition really that bad?” Hearing Lin Suisui’s words, Wulan didn’t dare to act rashly anymore. As she lay on the bed, tears flowed down her face. “It’s all my fault. I’m so useless!
If I had brought the news back safely, the patriarch definitely would have been able to rush to the Imperial Court in advance to save the Consort!”
“Don’t worry too much about it. Even if you bring the news back, the final outcome will only be worse.” Lin Suisui looked at Wulan and sighed. In the end, she couldn’t help but persuade her in a low voice, “You should recuperate first. The Consort’s condition has stabilized for the time being. She might wake up in the next two days. Her external injuries aren’t serious. With me taking care of her, there shouldn’t be a problem.”
After comforting Wulan, Lin Suisui returned to the tent where Molevin was placed. At this moment, not only was Lu Ze there, but even Gu Han, who had just bandaged his wound, came over.
As soon as Gu Han saw Lin Suisui, he couldn’t wait to tell her about his trip.
According to Gu Han, their trip was very smooth at first. With the mark Wulan had told them about as a guide, they quickly found traces left behind by Wulan and the others when they were attacked on the way.
There were broken boxes, blood from injuries after the fight, and broken axles and debris from the carriage.
However, they didn’t see Molevin’s whereabouts.
After Gu Han considered it, he decided to wait a little longer instead of rashly approaching the Imperial Court.
After all, this move was too risky. It was very easy for him to expose himself and get discovered.
He didn’t bring many people with him, so if they fought, he would most likely suffer.
Fortunately, Gu Han didn’t wait long before he discovered Molevin’s whereabouts.
However, she wasn’t alone on this trip. She had a mighty team of pursuers behind her.
From the looks of it, the other party wanted to kill Molevin.
Although Gu Han didn’t understand why that concubine was so hostile to Consort Molevin, this situation showed the importance of him saving Consort Molevin at this moment.
Therefore, Gu Han rushed forward with his guards without any hesitation. Although Gu Han’s guards were heroic and good at fighting, the difference in numbers was too great. In the end, although they escaped the encirclement, they suffered heavy losses.
Along the way, those people didn’t stop chasing them. Fortunately, they encountered the scouts Lu Ze had sent along the way. Only then did they barely defeat the group of pursuers chasing after them like hyenas and return to the camp.
“Are those people that strong?” Mo Rigcn frowned. He knew about the guards Gu Han had brought out very well. They were definitely top-notch experts. It was an exaggeration to say that they could fight a hundred people alone, but it wasn’t difficult for one to deal with two to three ordinary riders.
How did he get beaten up like this?
“Those people weren’t very strong, but their techniques were a little strange.” Gu Han scratched his head and organized his words before saying in a low voice, “Those people didn’t seem to be afraid of death.”
“Ahem, what I mean is that they didn’t seem to be afraid of pain at all. Unless I cut their necks with a knife, they would still rush over and attack us without caring about anything else.”
At the mention of that scene, Gu Han still felt a lingering sense of fear and he turned to look at Lin Suisui. He really couldn’t accept such a creepy thing, so he could only ask for their opinion. “What was going on?”
Gu Han was most worried that if they encountered such opponents when they attacked the Imperial Court, what would they do?
“I suspect that these people are under some kind of taming head technique.” Lin Suisui frowned and was silent for a long time before saying, “However, I haven’t seen them in person yet, so I can’t jump to conclusions.
It would be best if I could take a look at the corpses left behind by those people.”
“Although there aren’t any now, those people probably won’t give up on chasing after Consort Molevin.” Before Lu Ze came in, he listened to his subordinate’s report, so he had a certain understanding of those pursuers.. He said to Gu Han and Mo Rigen with certainty, “From now on, we have to strengthen the defense of the camp and guard against these people!”
