Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 276

Chapter 276: Zhan Wenmin’s Warning
After hearing Duan Xiyan’s answers, Zhan Wenmin quickly counted the time, and his eyes lit up. He suppressed his excitement and asked, “When was she born? What is her daughter’s name?”

Now that she had told him everything, Duan Xiyan just answered truthfully, “She was born at the end of the year, the thirty-first day of the twelfth month. Her name is Yixin. Because my paternal aunt never told us who her father was, she took our last name, and her full name is Duan Yixin.”

After saying that, Zhan Wenmin stood up and staggered a few steps back. The captain and others quickly held his arm, stabilized his body, and said, “General Zhan, please don’t get too excited.”

Zhan Wenmin raised his hand and said, “I’m fine.”

Hearing the captain calling Zhan Wenmin as General Zhan, Duan Xiyan’s eyes flashed with surprise. After a moment of surprise, she calmed down. Duan Xiyan then said carefully, “I have told you everything. I want my reward.”

Zhan Wenmin looked at her and asked, “Where is she now? How is she doing?”

Thinking of what happened to her parents because of Duan Yixin, a trace of hatred flashed in Duan Xiyan’s eyes. Although she lowered her eyes to hide her hatred, Zhan Wenmin still saw it.

He tightened his grip on the sword and warned her, “You’d better not hurt her. Otherwise, I will definitely make your life worse than death.”

Duan Xiyan trembled when she heard his cold voice and hurriedly said, “I don’t know where she is now, but her life was not easy after our grandfather passed away. If you want to find her, go to Yunshan Village. After leaving the village, I really knew nothing about her.”

Zhan Wenmin stared at her for a long time until Duan Xiyan broke out in a cold sweat before throwing the banknotes to the ground.

“Remember my warning. If you touch even a hair on her body, I will skin you alive.”

Before Duan Xiyan could answer, Zhan Wenmin and the others disappeared. After they left, Duan Xiyan collapsed limply to the ground. She opened her palms and found that they were covered with cold sweat. After sitting on the ground for a while, she silently picked up the banknotes and returned to the inn.

After questioning Duan Xiyan, Zhan Wenmin, and the soldiers returned to the inn. Sitting around the big round table, the captain said, “General Zhan, we should go to Yunshan Village to have a look.”

Zhan Wenmin clenched his hands and said, “Yes. We must find our Madam and young lady at all costs.”

The captain heard this and asked, “General Zhan, are you sure she is the daughter of the Supreme General?”

Zhan Wenmin nodded, “Yes. At that time, I was the one who protected Madam. A few days after Master went to the Western Region, Old Madam kicked her out of the mansion. It’s my fault for underestimating Old Madam’s cruelty. When I came back from buying plum cakes for Madam, they had already chased her out of the mansion.”

A soldier frowned and said, “General Zhan, most plum cakes are sour, and only pregnant women like to eat them.”

Zhan Wenmin sighed and said, “You are right. It’s a pity that I found out about Madam’s pregnancy too late.”

“Then why didn’t you tell the Supreme General about this?” The captain asked after a moment of hesitation.

Zhan Wenmin looked at him and asked, “Have you forgotten how Master lived after he found out that Madam had disappeared?”

Recalling the scene where Xie Yanghui learned that his wife had left him only a divorce document when she left, the captain fell into silence. If Xie Yanghui knew about his wife’s pregnancy, he might really go crazy and kill everyone in the mansion, including his mother.

After a long silence, Zhan Wenmin said, “We will set off to Yunshan Village early tomorrow morning. Complete the preparations as soon as possible.”

Hearing this, the others nodded and said, “Yes, General Zhan.”

After receiving the order, the captain and his men set off to prepare for the journey while the other team disappeared and hid around the inn to protect Zhan Wenmin.

The night was deep, and the cold wind blew into one of the inn’s rooms. As the candlelight flickered, Duan Yixin and Xuan Ruiquan’s shadows moved gently on the wall like two beautiful dancers. Seeing Duan Yixin was so focused on her experiment, Xuan Ruiquan stood up and closed the window to block the cold wind.

Just as he locked the window, Duan Yixin shouted excitedly, “Found it!”

Xuan Ruiquan turned around and saw her eyes shining brightly, looking at the transparent liquid in the glass flask. He walked back to his seat and asked, “Success?”

Duan Yixin nodded and smiled, “Yes. Thank you, General Xuan. Without that poison sample, I don’t know how long it would take to find the antidote.”

Xuan Ruiquan looked at the faint dark circles under her eyes and felt heartbroken. He reached out to gently rub her cheek and smiled, “It’s all the result of your hard work.”

Duan Yixin put down the glass flask and said, “This amount is not enough. I need to prepare more antidote. After that, we can send the antidote to the refugee camp to solve the plague in this town.”

Xuan Ruiquan wanted to persuade her to rest, but he knew that she would not listen. He didn’t waste time trying to convince her but said, “All right. How can I help you?”

Duan Yixin handed him the small grinder and said, “Help me grind these medicinal materials into powder.”

Xuan Ruiquan nodded and began grinding the medicinal materials. As the two of them worked all night, the candle slowly burned out, and the sky changed color.

After working all night, Duan Yixin’s eyes and body felt sore. She rubbed her eyes, stretched for a few seconds, and then yawned.

Seeing this, Xuan Ruiquan said, “Go and sleep for a while. I will wake you up in two hours.”
