章 5: Found a Treasure
編集者: Atlas Studios
There was a burst of loud laughter.
"Wife~ It hurts~"
"How lucky. I don't even have a wife yet."
After saying that, some people's lustful gazes landed on Bai Wutong.
They hadn't realized it previously, but now that they looked at her, although this silly woman was a little ugly, she had a good figure.
A cold glint flashed across Bai Wutong's eyes. She glanced at the many soldiers at the city gate and held Chu Tianbao's hand tightly to comfort him. "Be good. It won't hurt later."
The leading soldier glared at Chu Tianbao and threatened him fiercely, "Coward! How can a soldier not suffer? You can't even take this? You will definitely be the first to run away in a battle. If you dare to act like a sissy again, I'll break your limbs and hang you on the city gate for three days and three nights."
The man who had been forcibly grabbed heard this and glanced at the city wall in horror. Any thoughts of escape were extinguished.
Bai Wutong pursed her lips and suddenly said, "Sir, my husband doesn't want this to happen either. It's just that he encountered bandits and was seriously injured in the head and chest. He's not in the right state of mind now. Even if he manages to go to the military camp, his days are numbered. He will only implicate you."
"If you don't believe me, you can look at my husband's wound and see if I'm lying."
"He really can't join the army now. He'll only waste food if he joins."
The leading soldier did not listen at all. His face darkened and he pointed his saber at Chu Tianbao. "Cut the crap. Believe it or not, I'll kill this fool now."
The emperor had set a quota for every city. They had to capture enough men to expand the army. Who cared if they were injured or stupid? As long as Chu Tianbao was able-bodied, he had to go to the military camp.
Bai Wutong held Chu Tianbao's hand tightly as her gaze landed on the city gate dozens of meters away. She considered the possibility of rushing out of the city gate with Chu Tianbao without using modern weapons. Was there a need to risk so much for Chu Tianbao?
Suddenly, someone stared at Bai Wutong and smiled wretchedly. He said solicitously, "Boss, our battalion still lacks a few female caretakers. Why don't we let her go to the army with us? She can take care of her silly husband and serve our army. She'll definitely be happy to do so."
Bai Wutong's head exploded, and the anger in her eyes was almost impossible to hide.
Although they said that she would become a caretaker, everyone knew that their plan was to forcefully kidnap innocent women to become prostitutes.
The leading soldier rubbed his chin and thought for a moment. His lecherous gaze wandered over Bai Wutong and he chuckled. "Who dares to disobey the laws serving the country?" He waved his hand and ordered, "Take them all away."
The surrounding citizens hid far away, afraid that they would be implicated.
The soldiers had been waiting for him to say that. They rushed to take advantage of Bai Wutong.
Bai Wutong lowered her eyes and reached into her sleeves.
Before she could pull out the knife, Chu Tianbao, who had been bullied like a coward, had already twisted the necks of two soldiers in the blink of an eye.
The smiles hadn't even left the soldiers' face before they fell to the ground one after another, dead.
The soldiers stopped in their tracks. When they looked up, they realized that Chu Tianbao's eyes were cold and terrifying, like a ferocious beast that could kill without batting an eyelid.
The leading soldier was surprised. His expression instantly turned ferocious as he shouted, "They're traitors. Kill them!"
The soldiers swarmed forward. Bai Wutong did not hide anymore. She pulled out her sharp dagger and slit a soldier's neck with lightning speed.
The soldier's eyes bulged, and his body went limp, bleeding all over the floor. It was a ghastly sight.
They did not expect this woman to be so powerful. The soldiers raised their sabers and Chu Tianbao's powerful leg swept down. They flew out with their sabers.
The leading soldier was even more convinced that they were traitors. If he caught them, he would definitely be promoted.
He shouted urgently to the soldiers guarding the gate. "Close the gate. Don't let them get away."
Bai Wutong lowered her eyes and grabbed Chu Tianbao's hand. "Let's rush out of the city now."
The city gate was very huge and cumbersome to move. It would take more than ten people to close it together, giving them some time.
Chu Tianbao was even stronger than Bai Wutong had imagined. Without any weapons, he opened a path with his bare hands.
They were about to escape.
The leading soldier narrowed his eyes and ordered at Bai Wutong, "Kill that woman first."
He could tell that Chu Tianbao treated Bai Wutong like it was his eyeball.
If he captured this woman, Chu Tianbao would definitely surrender.
The number of attacks aimed at Bai Wutong suddenly increased. She was not good at using daggers, and this body was weak. Seeing that a large saber was about to land on her back, she did not have time to dodge.
At the critical moment, Chu Tianbao quickly grabbed her waist and squeezed the blade tightly with one hand.
Scarlet blood flowed from between his fingers. Chu Tianbao didn't care. Instead, he forcefully pulled the big knife out of the soldier's hand and held it with his knee.
While Bai Wutong was stunned, Chu Tianbao had already slaughtered a large group of soldiers like melons when they swarmed up.
Bai Wutong looked at the corpses on the ground. She was not afraid. Instead, her chest was filled with surprise. Chu Tianbao was more powerful than a lethal machine gun. She had really found a treasure.
No matter how loudly the leading soldier shouted, they were still unable to stop Chu Tianbao and Bai Wutong from fighting their way to the city gate.
He stamped his foot in exasperation. "Close the gates now! If they get away, I'll kill all you useless people!"
The soldiers who were afraid of Chu Tianbao had no choice but to brace themselves and close the door.
Just as the city gate was about to close, Chu Tianbao picked up Bai Wutong and stepped on the heads and shoulders of the soldiers. He flew over and finally reflected the big saber back with a whoosh.
In the next second, the city gate closed heavily. Before the soldiers could panic that they had let the traitors escape, they realized that their leader's throat had been pierced by a large knife.
He looked down in disbelief at the large knife that had pierced through his neck. He wanted to reach out and pull it out. He trembled twice before falling to the ground with an indignant expression.
…
In a hidden bush outside Lin'an City, Bai Wutong was applying medicine for Chu Tianbao.
The man with blood all over his hands cried, "Wife, it hurts~"
As heroic as he had been earlier, he was now…
Bai Wutong held his wrist that was fidgeting. "I am applying the medicine, don't move!"
After cleaning it with saline, it was covered in a few centimeters of bloody wound.
One could only imagine how painful it must have been to catch a blade barehanded.
Bai Wutong carefully applied the medicine on him. He twisted like a maggot and screamed from time to time.
It was especially terrifying in the quiet forest.
Frowning, Bai Wutong pulled a milk-flavored candy from her pack and popped it into his mouth. "Don't scream!"
The sweet milky taste melted between his lips and teeth. Tianbao immediately sat down obediently. No matter how Bai Wutong applied the bandages, there was no reaction at all.
