Chapter 141: Japanese War

Chapter 141

Jiang Yuhe who was in a coma due to poisoning was not the only one. The other major camps were also full, with nearly 600 people in total.

Expelling toxins requires a lot of spiritual power. Unlike Jiang Yuhe who had his own separate small room, the other injured soldiers lived in large tents.

In order not to reveal her abilities too obviously, Jiang Yuqing could only use acupuncture to apply her healing techniques, which was slower and more draining.

Therefore, after clearing the toxins from twenty people, she had to return to her spiritual space to restore her spiritual power. In order to speed up the recovery of her spiritual power, she even used spiritual crystals.

In this way, working all day without eating or drinking, she could clear the toxins from more than thirty injured soldiers at most.

Fortunately, synthesizing this toxin was not difficult for Doctor Qiu. By the third day he had formulated an antidote.

Otherwise, Jiang Yuqing was really afraid that these injured soldiers would die before she could treat them.

Jiang Yuhe woke up on the morning of the second day. After waking up and learning that his sister had come, he struggled to get out of bed to find his sister.

However, he had been in a coma for more than ten days and his body was extremely weak. He really didn’t have the strength to get out of bed.

The guard who was taking care of him went to find Jiang Yuqing. When Jiang Yuqing heard that her brother was awake, she immediately ran to Jiang Yuhe's tent, and the siblings naturally had endless things to talk about.

"Little sister, how did you come here?" Jiang Yuhe's voice was still a little hoarse after his major illness.

"The family sent me a letter and I came as soon as I got the news." She took out half a jar of honey from her bag and made him a cup of honey water, "Drink it to moisturize your throat!"

Jiang Yuhe took the cup and gulped down two mouthfuls, angrily said: "The Japanese pirates are despicable, they even put poison on the arrows."

Jiang Yuqing deeply agreed: "If the Xia Baga weren't despicable, they wouldn't be called Japanese pirates."

Jiang Yuhe suddenly remembered something and pulled her sleeve, "Little sister, many of our comrades have also been poisoned. Can you save them?"

Jiang Yuqing patted his hand and said, "Don't worry, my master has already formulated an antidote, and they are all fine now. The external injuries just need recuperation!"

"Thank you, sister!" Jiang Yuhe really couldn't help touching his sister's head. After not seeing each other for many years, his sister had grown into a young lady, how nice.

Jiang Yuqing then asked him, "Where is the peace talisman I gave you?"

Jiang Yuhe was taken aback, and his dark red face instantly blushed. If Jiang Yuqing had not been attentive enough, she would not have noticed.

He mumbled, "I gave it away!"

"Gave it to whom? A man or a woman?"

"A w-woman!" Jiang Yuhe's big hand, like a feather fan, scratched the back of his head, smiling brightly.

Jiang Yuqing immediately understood, and gave a meaningful "oh". Then she didn’t ask further.

She just took out an upgraded protective talisman from her bag and gave it to him: "Wear this, don't give it away again. Otherwise if there is a next time, you may not be able to wait for me to save you."

Jiang Yuhe took it and grinned: "Thank you, sister!"

The two talked for a while longer before Jiang Yuqing had to leave because she still had things to do. She said she would come to see him again later.

Before leaving his room, Jiang Yuqing said, "If you have a girl you like, just tell the family. Don't be shy.

The elders said that as long as the other party is of good character, even if her status is a little lower it doesn't matter.

Even if she is a lady of some status, don't be intimidated. Our household's second young master's status is no worse than others'."

When Jiang Yuhe heard this, his ears instantly turned red. He hesitated for a while before saying, "Well, brother will remember..."

Jiang Yuqing had previously trained military doctors for the major camps in the northwest, and the injury camps there were also built according to her standards.

The major camps in the southeast were too far away and had never sent anyone to receive training in this area.

Therefore, the entire injury camp there was a complete mess. All kinds of stuff were placed horizontally and vertically in disorder, sewage flowed around, flies gathered in piles, and the sanitary conditions were really worrying.

Hearing her husband's shout, Yan Deyin put down her needlework, walked out holding her belly, and at a glance saw Jiang Yuqing. She stared in surprise and delight: "Little sister!"

Jiang Yuqing hurriedly ran over and gave her sister-in-law a loving hug: "Sister-in-law, I missed you!"

Yan Deyin was almost moved to tears: "I missed you too!" The sisters had a good time catching up.

Only then did Jiang Yuqing notice Yan Deyin’s slightly protruding belly. She carefully reached out and touched her stomach.

Yan Deyin's eyes were bright: "I'm going to be an aunt again? When did this happen, how come I don't know about it!"

Yan Deyin shyly said, "It's already been over four months. I just sent a letter back home recently."

There are formalities in the capital, it's said that if the fetus is less than three months old it is not appropriate to tell outsiders, for fear of disturbing the fetus god. Sister-in-law was probably thinking like this.

Jiang Yujiang said, "It would be best if auntie could come for a visit. Without an elder around, it just doesn't feel secure."

Yan Deyin said, "That's what your older brother thinks too."

Jiang Yuqing asked Doctor Qiu to take her pulse. He said the fetus and mother are very healthy, and told them not to worry.

At lunch, Yan Deyin prepared a table full of delicious food to welcome the master and disciple.

It is said that one eats what is local to the sea when by the sea. Aside from the usual vegetables on the table, there was even more seafood.

The seafood was all caught from the sea by fishermen that very day, and the taste was extremely fresh. Jiang Yuqing liked it very much, and master and disciple ate quite a bit.

Jiang Yujiang laughed, "And here I was worried you wouldn't be used to the food. Now I can rest assured."

"When my wife and I first came, we were extremely unaccustomed. In just over a year, we've become so used to it."

Master and disciple stayed at the county office for two days. During this time, Jiang Yujiang and his wife Yan Deyin took them out to tour around.

In these years, Yashan had truly suffered greatly from the Japanese pirates. There weren't many pedestrians on the streets, and most of the street vendors were impoverished commoners selling fish, dressed in tattered clothes.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuqing felt rather heavy-hearted.

Jiang Yujiang said, "Yashan has salt fields. After sea goods are dried they can be transported inland, which is also quite a lucrative business.

As it is now, it's all been harmed by the Japanese pirates. As long as the Japanese pirates are gone, not only Yashan but the entire coast would become prosperous in just a few years."

As the prearranged time to meet up at the main camp in Zhongshan up north was approaching, master and disciple had to bid Jiang Yujiang and his wife farewell.

In order to provide more nutrition for sister-in-law, before leaving the county office Jiang Yuqing went to the spiritual realm, dismantled a pile of things like prenatal vitamins, changed the packaging, and left them for sister-in-law.

Things like ginseng and ganoderma were also left, several plants, to be used as needed.

It takes about three days to get from Yashan to Zhongshan. After master and disciple left the county town of Yashan, they had just flown a distance when they saw the black clouds surging in from the southeastern sea.

Considering the current season, they knew they had encountered a typhoon.

Jiang Yuqing saw what looked like a temple down the mountain path ahead, and quickly took Doctor Qiu over to find shelter.

But Doctor Qiu suddenly cried out, "Dear child, there is a carriage in danger down below!"

Jiang Yuqing looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough by the mountain path below was a carriage, one wheel already suspended in midair, with the bottomless abyss right below.

The horse whinnied as it desperately struggled to move forward. Inside the carriage, the people were frightened as they angrily tried to control the horse while loudly crying for help.

Jiang Yuqing didn't have time to think twice. In a flash he flew under the suspended wheel, forcefully propping it up and lifting.

The people in the carriage felt it lighten, and when they came to their senses the carriage had already been pulled up.

Having escaped death, the few people in the carriage broke out in a cold sweat as they jumped down to assess the situation.

To Jiang Yuqing's surprise, among them were two people he recognized.
