Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 162

Chapter 162: Landslide (1)
A few seconds later, Duan Yixin asked with a smile on the corner of her lips, “Elder Brother Xiyou, are you afraid of taking medicine?”

After hearing her question, Chi Xiyou choked up. He quickly controlled his expressions, coughed a few times, and said calmly, “You are talking nonsense.”

Not believing what he said, Duan Yixin glanced at the medicine pot and said calmly, “I see. Then you should be able to drink the medicine without problem.”

As soon as these words came out, Chi Xiyou was speechless.

“…” Do you still have a conscience? Why do I feel like you are enjoying this?

While the two were talking, the medicine was ready. Duan Yixin poured it into a bowl and handed it to Chi Xiyou. Looking at the black liquid in front of him and smelling the bitter medicinal smell, Chi Xiyou’s face twisted.

Seeing Chi Xiyou’s expression as if he were facing a life-and-death situation, Duan Yixin couldn’t help but chuckle. Madam Chi saw him staring at the bowl of medicine for a long time and asked, “Dalang, what are you doing? Drink the medicine quickly while it is still hot. You can’t waste Xin Xin’s good intention.”

Under her mother’s gaze, Chi Xiyou had no choice but to take the bowl of medicine from Duan Yixin’s hands. He stared at the medicine for a few more seconds, closed his eyes, pinched his nose, and drank it bravely.

Gulp~ Gulp~ Gulp~

The sound of Chi Xiyou swallowing the medicine was clearly audible as he took a big mouthful one after another. A few seconds later, he handed the empty bowl to Duan Yixin and hurriedly left the kitchen.

Watching Chi Xiyou leave in a hurry, Madam Chi was worried that he would spit out the medicine and said to Duan Yixin, “Xin Xin, can you take a look at Dalang? Since he was a child, he would vomit whenever he took medicine. There is still some flour left, and I want to make more dry pancakes.”

After hearing what Madam Chi said, Duan Yixin was worried about Chi Xiyou, so she agreed to Madam Chi’s request. She left the kitchen and returned to the living room. Seeing Chi Xiyou gulping down a cup of water as if his life depended on it, Duan Yixin took out a piece of maltose candy from the warehouse.

Duan Yixin bought some maltose candies the last time she went to Chun Shan Town because she likes sweets, so now she can give them to Chi Xiyou. Duan Yixin placed some maltose candies wrapped in oil paper on the table and said, “Elder Brother Xiyou, you can eat these maltose candies to relieve the bitter taste.”

After she said this, Chi Xiyou glanced at the maltose candies on the table, then turned to look at her and grinned, “Thank you, Xin Xin. I’m very happy you shared your sweets with me.”

After thanking Duan Yixin, he opened the package and put a piece of maltose candy in his mouth. When the sweetness of the maltose candy spread in his mouth, the bitter taste of the medicine disappeared.

Chi Xiyou reached out his hand, gently rubbed her head, and said, “It’s very late. You should go to bed now.”

Duan Yixin’s actual age is already twenty-four. She feels a bit awkward being treated like a child by an eighteen-year-old Chi Xiyou. She coughs to cover up her embarrassment and says, “All right. Good night, Elder Brother Xiyou.”

“Good night, Xin Xin.” Chi Xiyou replied with a smile.

Returning to Chi Xinru’s bedroom, Duan Yixin found that Chi Xinru had fallen asleep. She moved as quietly as possible so as not to disturb Chi Xinru, and then she washed her face and hands in the wooden basin. After cleaning herself, she carefully climbed onto the bed.

Duan Yixin stared at the low ceiling for a while before closing her eyes. Not long after, she fell asleep.

As the villagers fell asleep one after another, Yunshan Village slowly fell into silence. The rain was still pouring down without any signs of stopping, and lightning came intermittently, followed by deafening thunder. As the night deepened, a dozen masked men in black approached Yunshan Village at extreme speeds.

Landing on the branches of the tall trees near Yunshan Village, the masked men wait for their leader’s orders. The leader narrowed his eyes and scanned Yunshan Village carefully. After identifying the target’s location, the leader made a series of hand gestures.

When he motioned for others to move, everyone activated their lightness skills and disappeared from there, leaving only a few leaves falling to the ground.

A few minutes later, they landed lightly in front of a mud house. The leader looked coldly at the dilapidated mud house and then walked to the door. As the others gathered around the house to keep watch, the leader knocked on the door.

Knock~ knock~ knock~!

Rain and occasional thunder muffled the knocking sounds. After waiting for a while, when no one opened the door, the leader raised his hand and knocked again, this time harder.

Knock~ knock~ knock~!

Inside the house, Liang Jiaying was disturbed by the knocking sounds. She opened her eyes and scolded irritably, “Who is here so late? Don’t let people sleep?”

After putting on her shoes, Liang Jiaying put on her outer clothes and went to open the door. The moment she saw the leader standing in front of the door, Liang Jiaying’s angry words got stuck in her throat. She looked at the image of the red wolf carved on the black mask, and the corners of her mouth curved up slightly. It seems that she won the bet again.

She crossed her arms, looked at the leader, and smiled, “Are you here to relay that person’s answer?”

The leader didn’t like Liang Jiaying’s arrogant tone and the way she looked at them with contempt, but he had his mission to complete. Trained to put the mission above everything else, the leader controlled his feelings and said coldly, “We are here to take you to meet our Master. Pack your things and follow us.”
