The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor
Chapter 70 Wallet Stolen
The reason the Flying Eagle Gang has been able to grow to its current position is twofold. First, the mountain terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. They have previously sent troops to besiege it, but all attempts ended in failure. This time, they originally planned to launch a coordinated attack from within and without, capturing Flying Eagle in the mountain stronghold first. However, their plan was thwarted halfway through by Li Muxia and his group.
Secondly, Flying Eagle's martial arts skills were quite good; he was once well-known in the martial arts world. Ultimately, he offended the government and was hunted down to Longhu Mountain, where he became an outlaw.
Upon seeing the flying projectile, he gently pushed the bandit beside him towards Li Muxia, using the bandit as a shield. The projectile pierced the bandit's heart with a "thud," and the bandit died without even making a sound.
Flying Eagle watched as the hidden weapon he had thrown pierced his own younger brother's heart, and he went completely mad. Then, he heard the miserable screams of his third brother and the calls of his second brother. Turning around, he saw his third brother lying in a pool of blood and his second brother being stabbed by a soldier. He went completely insane.
He raised his broadsword and slashed wildly without any strategy or method.
The battle didn't last long. Flying Eagle was captured alive by General Wu. When General Wu held his sword to her neck, she gave up resisting. All three of her younger brothers had been killed, and the more than fifty brothers she had brought with her were either dead or wounded. She knew that her chances of survival were slim.
Just as he was about to bite his tongue and commit suicide, General Wu struck his pressure points. Before he fainted, he glanced at Li Muxia and the others with bloodshot eyes.
General Wu had his men tie up Flying Eagle and take him away. He walked over to Li Muxia and the others, and was about to pay his respects to Long Jie when he saw Long Jie gently shake his head at him. He immediately understood that Long Jie did not want to reveal his identity in front of Li Muxia and the others.
He changed his address and said, "I am General Wu Yuehao, who led this bandit suppression campaign. I would like to thank you all for your help in making this bandit suppression campaign a success."
Li Muxia and the others only then came to their senses from the fierce battle and looked at the young general.
Bai Qingshi stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "We weren't of any help, Young General, there's no need for thanks. We were just trying to protect ourselves."
Seeing this, General Wu didn't offer any further explanation. He simply looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Let us escort you for a while. Where are you headed?"
Bai Qingshi initially wanted to refuse, but considering the fighting they had just witnessed, and the fact that it would take them two more days to reach Wu County at their current pace—and that this was likely the most dangerous part of the journey—he was also worried about what other dangers they might encounter along the way. With government soldiers protecting them, at least they would arrive safely.
He immediately stopped refusing, explained his purpose, and then followed the officers and soldiers.
General Wu did not go with them, but led a group of men to the mountain stronghold to wipe out the remaining bandits. Without Flying Eagle in charge, they wiped out the remaining bandits in the stronghold without breaking a sweat.
Li Muxia, on the other hand, was escorted by his deputy general to return to the capital to face trial.
Long Jie remained silent the entire way, simply observing Li Muxia and the others.
Long Jie was also very impressed with Li Muxia's performance just now. After all, Li Muxia looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, had no internal strength, and although she was pretty, she looked weak and frail. He didn't expect her to be so brave.
I especially admire Li Muxia's over-the-shoulder throw. Although it looks very strenuous, it has an unexpected effect of using minimal force to overcome great strength. Li Muxia, who is so thin, can easily throw a fat person down.
After two months of hard work, Li Muxia has finally returned to her normal figure. She now weighs no more than 46 or 47 kilograms. Compared to other women her age, she is quite tall, standing at about 1.68 meters at the age of 15. If she weren't dressed as a man, she would definitely be a top-tier beauty.
A large group of people arrived in Wuxian County three days later.
After bidding farewell to the general who escorted them, Li Muxia and his companions found an inn to stay in. As the weather grew colder, after settling in, Li Muxia went to a tailor shop to have the winter clothes his grandfather had prepared for him altered to be smaller, and also had a set of winter clothes custom-made for his master and senior brother.
On her way back to the inn, Li Muxia passed by a pastry shop and saw a long queue outside. Out of curiosity and her foodie nature, Li Muxia naturally joined the end of the queue.
Li Muxia has stopped dieting and doesn't overly restrict his food intake. However, he still exercises every day, a good habit he developed in modern times.
Before long, a long line of people had formed behind Li Muxia.
Suddenly, a dirty child bumped into him and ran away without even saying sorry.
Li Muxia looked at her clothes and thought to herself unhappily, "This kid bumped into someone and didn't even apologize. How rude."
Suddenly, something popped into her head, and she quickly touched her waist. Sure enough, the place where her purse used to hang was empty.
Li Muxia quickly looked up at the little boy and found that he hadn't run too far. She quickly chased after him, shouting as she ran, "Stop! Give me back my wallet!"
She thought someone would step in to help, but after shouting a few times, she only received stares from those around her; no one stepped forward to stop the little boy.
Li Muxia is no pushover either; she exercises every day and has excellent physical fitness. How could she possibly be outrun by an eight or nine-year-old boy?
Just as she was about to catch up, a man in white lightly landed in front of the little boy and grabbed him by the back of the neck.
"At such a young age, not learning good things is not being a good child. Come and return the things to their owner." His tone was gentle, but his eyes revealed a coldness.
Li Muxia ran up to him, bent over and panting, and said, "Thank you for your help, young master."
She looked up and realized that the person who helped her was Long Jie.
Then, he said with delight, "Young Master Long, it's you! I didn't expect you to know martial arts."
Long Jie looked at Li Muxia with a faint smile and said, "I only know the basics."
The little boy next to him twisted his body and said, "Let me go."
Li Muxia stepped forward, grabbed the little boy's ear, and said, "Little guy, you're pretty fast. Give me back my money pouch. You also have to promise not to do this kind of thing again, and I'll let you go. Otherwise, I'll take you to the authorities."
The little boy was terrified when he heard Li Muxia's words. He immediately knelt down, hugged Li Muxia's leg, and cried, "Big brother, please don't send me to the government office. My mother is still sick. If I'm arrested, there will be no one to take care of her."
