Wen Ruosheng was deep in thought, trying to grasp the flash of inspiration, but just when he was about to think of it, he was interrupted by a hurried voice: "My Lord, Kuishan has rebelled. He actually ran away with the enemy."

Wen Ruosheng's thoughts were interrupted, and he frowned slightly, his voice cold: "Nonsense, I am not blind, how could I not see such a big guy running away?"

"Go, bring back all the people who escaped from the dungeon, dead or alive. If you can't catch them, bring back their bodies. What are you waiting for? Do you want to die?"

"...Yes, Xiaode will catch it right away."

Kuishan ran with the two of them and soon arrived outside the gate of Jiudu City. He looked up at the tall city wall and was a little troubled: "Brother, it's too high. What should I do if I can't get in?"

Jiang Li pulled his ear and pointed: "You guys stay over there. I'm going to the battlefield. When it's over, you can enter the city. There's a war going on right now, so you definitely can't enter."

"Otherwise we'll let the enemy in. Do you understand? There's food and medicine here. You apply medicine to your brother, and then you just wait here obediently. Do you hear me?"

Seeing the big and small nod, Jiang Li's eye twitched. Why did he feel that bringing back two kids was such a stupid idea?

The sounds of fighting continued until dark, when they finally stopped. Both sides began to clean up the battlefield. After the Death Soldier Captain finished counting, he stepped forward and said, "General, no one among the Death Soldier died, but many were injured."

Jiang Li nodded. It was his first time on the battlefield, so injuries were inevitable. The fact that no one died was already an unexpected surprise.

"Well, bring the wounded in. Fenglan's people will take care of them and give them good food and drink. Do you understand what I mean? Once the wounded are healed, we can go home."

"I understand what my master means. The Death God Soldiers are here for Feng Lan, so we should leave the aftermath to them. There is no need to save money for them and hurt your body."

Jiang Li clapped his hands and said seriously, "Yes, that's what I mean. Go ahead and do it. If the Fenglan people are unwilling or neglect our warriors, this general will go and have a good talk with them."

As soon as he finished speaking, his fists clenched and made a crackling sound.

Upon hearing this, the Death Soldier Captain couldn't help but smile a little on his stiff face: "Master, we understand what you mean."

"Brothers, lift the wounded soldier carefully, and let's go into the city to recuperate. Eat and drink well, and when he recovers, we will go home to see our families."

Everyone shouted in unison: "Yes!"

After entering the city, Jiang Li arranged the two brothers directly in the next yard and brought a doctor to treat them.

After feeling the patient's pulse, the doctor stood up and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that the body is weak. It will be fine after a while. But... the tongue is not good. You will be a mute from now on."

Kuishan was anxious. He grabbed the doctor by the collar and lifted him up: "Heal, heal my brother, you do it!"

"Put me down. You have lost your tongue. What else can I do? Just let it be. I will slowly nurse you back to health. If you want to talk, you can use gestures. It's much better than losing your hands."

Seeing that he would not let go, the doctor was a little scared and shouted, "General Yun, please take care of it quickly and let this idiot put me down."

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this: "As a doctor, you are so vicious in your words. You really have no moral integrity. It seems that we should change a doctor next time, don't you think so, old man?"

"… This old man just spoke out of turn. I hope the general will not blame me."

"Don't do it again. I'll prescribe some medicine to nourish the body. Oh, the money will be on General Chu Huai's head. I believe he will have no objection. Doctor, do you think this is right?"

"Yes, the medicine will be delivered soon. I will go and make it now."

Jiang Li clapped his hands and signaled Kuishan to put the man down.

Kuishan snorted and let the man out. Like a child in a rage, he slammed the door shut and sat down on the floor beside the bed.

"Brother, take good care of your wounds. We will follow him in the future. I will grow crops and store food. In the future, we will have more food than we can eat. We won't have to do bad things or kill people anymore."

"Ah!"

Kuian gestured something, lowered his head towards Jiang Li, and slid his hands across the quilt. Jiang Li asked tentatively, "You mean, you can read and write, right?"

Seeing him nod, Jiang Li's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that he could just poach someone and find that this person could read. In ancient times when 90% of people were illiterate, it was really rare to find someone who could read.

Jiang Li took out a booklet and handed it over with a charcoal pencil: "If you have anything to say, you can write it down and have someone give it to me. Don't think too much about the rest and just focus on healing."

"Also, we are not from Fenglan. Once Fenglan's affairs are dealt with, you can come with me and return to my hometown. Is that okay?"

"Okay, you don't have to say anything. I understand. You will be fine. After all, you have been able to endure the hard times before. You will have a good life if you follow me. As long as you know how to farm, you will be fine."

Kuian's eyes twitched: "..."

He swallowed back what he was about to say, put the booklet away carefully, nodded, and said nothing more. This man saved him and would not force his brother to kill anyone. This was enough.

Farming is good. It doesn’t matter if you’re a little tired as long as you have food to eat.

He never wanted to go back to Yun Country. Those people were scarier than ghosts. If he went back, he would live a life worse than death. It was good enough now. It was good enough.

After Jiang Li finished explaining everything, he turned around and went out. He looked at each of the injured Death Soldiers lying on the bed one by one. He took off their black armor and the terrifying mask on their faces.

Each of them looks no different from ordinary people, and not that scary anymore.

Before she could say anything, she saw Qiu He and Chun Cao coming in with water, smiling, "General, you are here. We sisters saw that you are busy here, so we came to help."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Li turned his head and looked at them, his eyes carrying a warning: "Be polite to the two girls, don't lose your sense of propriety, otherwise, I don't mind letting you become eunuchs."

The injured people heard this and shook their heads: "Master, don't worry. We are very grateful that the two girls are willing to take care of us. How could we say anything rude? Miss Qiuhe, don't you think so?"

Qiu He couldn't help but laugh and nodded: "Well, you killed a lot of Yun people today, so you are our sisters' benefactors. It's our duty to take care of you. General, don't worry, they treat us very well."

"There is nothing impolite about this. General, you must be very tired. Go back and rest early. Leave this to us sisters. We are still able to clean and bandage the wounds."

Jiang Li nodded, said nothing more, turned around and walked out. After returning to the room, he washed up, lay down on the bed and fell asleep. He didn't know why, but he always felt very tired recently.

I yawned and fell asleep in a second!
