Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Mo Ye was preoccupied with his thoughts and didn't notice the change in Yang Jianwu's expression. He continued, "Besides, how could such a small insect have been chased from Anshun to the capital in just a few days?"

Even though Yang Jianwu felt awkward, she knew this wasn't the time to throw a tantrum, so she said sourly, "If Your Highness doesn't believe me, that's fine. This is a tracking Gu, I'm sure of it."

Mo Ye realized he had brought up something he shouldn't have. What should he do? Maybe he should pretend to be mute and let the matter drop for now? "I don't disbelieve you, I'm just curious how it found us so quickly."

Yang Jianwu explained, "The mission of the tracking Gu is to keep chasing them to their target. They are initially red and turn into butterflies in about seven days. Butterflies fly much faster. Their lifespan is only about seven days when they turn into butterflies. Once that time is up, they will die, and the colorful larvae in their abdomen will emerge and continue the mission of their previous generation."

Mo Ye frowned slightly after hearing this. "Is there any way to find and kill all the Gu worms?"

Yang Jianwu nodded, watching Mo Ye clearly realize he had said the wrong thing but didn't apologize, and said stubbornly, "It's possible, but why should I tell you?"

Hong Dian couldn't help but burst out laughing, which sounded particularly abrupt in the quiet tent. This Miss Yang is quite bold!

Mo Ye was so angry he leaned back. Couldn't this girl give him any face?! He comforted himself, telling himself not to get angry, not to get angry. It was all his fault for being so talkative and bringing it up for no reason... He still needed her to solve the Gu worm problem. So what if he said something wrong? How hard could it be to apologize?

"Um... Xiao Wu'er, don't be angry, I misspoke... Can we talk about the matter of removing the curse?" Mo Ye coaxed gently.

Jing Nan's shoulders were trembling. Although he really wanted to laugh, he had to hold it in because of the two powerful figures present. Holding back laughter was really painful. Forgive him, he was about to burst out laughing. "Pfft—" He had never seen Prince Ning so ingratiating before, and he really couldn't hold it in any longer.

Yang Jianwu was curious about what Mo Ye had done in Nan Yue. For the Nan Yue royal family to release a tracking Gu, they must have lost something extremely important, and the most likely culprit was the person in front of her. "What exactly did you steal in Nan Yue?"

After asking the question, both Mo Ye and Jing Nan looked embarrassed. Couldn't you have been more tactful...? Jing Nan, fearing Mo Ye wouldn't know how to answer, tried to cover for him, "Are you mistaken? How could Prince Ning possibly steal anything..." Meeting Yang Jianwu's sharp gaze, Jing Nan realized he couldn't continue the lie...

Mo Ye didn't intend to hide it from Yang Jianwu, and simply said, "I'll tell you somewhere else."

Yang Jianwu glanced at the two colorful corpses, nodded in agreement, and Mo Ye led him to the main tent.

Inside the tent were only Mo Ye, Jing Nan, and Yang Jianwu, while Hong Feng and Hong Dian stood guard outside. Mo Ye took out a diagram drawn on sheepskin from a locked box. Yang Jianwu glanced at it; it was a simple formation. She looked at it with disdain and said, "You went to Nan Yue just to steal this?"

Mo Ye didn't understand why Yang Jianwu had this expression, and truthfully said, "The secret agents sent word that their Grand Tutor has developed a kind of formation. Once a person falls into it, they can't get out. They have secretly conducted experiments in a small village on the border of Dongli and Nanyue. Not a single person in the village survived; they all starved to death inside..." Mo Ye's voice became somewhat heavy as he said this.

Taking a deep breath, he continued, "Half of the people in this village are also from Dongli... Due to a lack of evidence, we can't openly send troops to Nanyue, so we've been investigating in secret. If Nanyue uses this formation on the battlefield, wouldn't they be able to conquer Dongli without losing a single soldier? Therefore, we must thoroughly study it..."

Yang Jianwu indicated that she understood, but as she did, she found the formation really low-level... Jing Nan's eyes lit up at Yang Jianwu's disdain, "Miss Yang, do you know about this formation?"

Mo Ye suddenly looked at Yang Jianwu, his eyes seeking confirmation.

Yang Jianwu wanted to live a peaceful life, and the premise of peace was the stability of the country. So, anything that threatened her peaceful life should be eliminated. Therefore, she revealed her identity, "I know, and I also know something more powerful than this. If we have to categorize them, this one is the lowest level. You don't need to study it."

Mo Ye was overjoyed. What a treasure this girl was! Was there anything she couldn't do? Suppressing his excitement, he asked, "Little Wu'er, could you perhaps teach the formation techniques to the army?" Thinking of Jing Nan's previous injuries, he added, "Also, could you teach the suturing technique to the army doctors? That would reduce casualties on the battlefield..."

Mo Ye felt he was asking for too much. He admitted that he was now in love with Xiao Wu'er, but he had never done anything for her. On the contrary, she had always been helping him. This feeling made him feel powerless. He seemed unworthy of Xiao Wu'er... But even so, he would try to move Xiao Wu'er. She wanted the only one, and he would give it to her!

Yang Jianwu thought for a moment and replied, "Formation formations cannot be learned in a day or two. I will be leaving the capital soon. Your Highness, Prince Ning, please send two trustworthy people with me back to Anshun. I will teach them several formations. The strength of a formation depends on the number of people and their individual strength. Your Highness can set up a special formation team. Ideally, the people in the team should be of similar age and strength. Even if someone dies on the battlefield, there will be someone to replace them in time, so that the enemy can break the formation."

Mo Ye was very excited at this moment. He really didn't expect that the problem that had been bothering him for months would be solved so easily by Xiao Wu'er.

"As for the superficial suturing technique, as long as the doctor is bold and meticulous, he can learn it quickly." Yang Jianwu didn't hold back at all. Her magnanimity impressed the two of them. An ordinary woman would definitely have kept it to herself to make a name for herself.

Mo Ye caught the key point in Yang Jianwu's words, "What do you mean by 'surface'?"

Yang Jianwu recalled that Mo Ye had visited the City Lord's Mansion in Cloud City and seen the human model there. "Do you still remember the model of the City Lord's Mansion?"

Mo Ye felt a pang of embarrassment at the thought of sneaking into the city lord's mansion at night, a fact that couldn't be denied. "I remember..."

Yang Jianwu wasn't trying to bring up old grievances. "The model you mentioned with exposed internal organs shows the human body's internal organs. When a sharp object enters the body and damages the organs, it's necessary to open up the abdomen, suture the wounds to the internal organs, and then put them back in their original positions. This isn't something you can learn in a few days; it requires long-term practice."

Mo Ye suddenly realized, "So those two mannequins were what you used to teach people medicine?!"

Yang Jianwu nodded, "Yes, I've established a medical team in Yunzhi. If Your Highness Ning wishes for the doctor to master the suturing technique more thoroughly, it would be best to send someone to Yunzhi to practice with the medical team. In addition to suturing, they can also learn advanced acupuncture techniques there."
