Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 77

Chapter 77: Medicinal Food
Xuan Ruiquan closes his eyes to calm himself down, then looks at Shi Liangfeng and says calmly, “I met a divine physician in the past. She happened to be able to cure the Xiong Nu plague, and she gave me the prescription.”

After listening to his explanation, another general named Jiang Zongshang looked at Xuan Ruiquan with admiration and said, “Wangye, you are indeed a person blessed by God. You even know a miracle doctor. This miracle doctor must have a destiny with you. I hope you can introduce her to us one day.”

When Xuan Ruiquan heard Jiang Zongshang’s words, a smile flashed in his cold eyes. He also wants to introduce her to them as soon as possible, but he needs to defeat the Xiong Nu first.

Thinking of the Xiong Nu, Xuan Ruiquan’s eyes turned cold when he said, “In two days, we will launch a surprise attack on the Xiong Nu.”

The generals clasped their fists and said in unison, “Yes, Wangye.”

While Xuan Ruiquan and the generals were busy formulating a strategy to annihilate the Xiong Nu army, Duan Yixin was busy preparing another batch of cold ointment. By the time she finished filling up a jar with the cold ointment, it was already sunset.

Duan Yixin cleaned up the tools, small stove, and small pots to heat the ingredients and then went to the kitchen to make dinner. Just as she was taking the dishes out of the kitchen, she smelled the smell of blood in the air. Recalling what Liushiliu said when he sent her back this afternoon, she could guess that the smell of blood was from him.

‘It seems that he has already solved the matter about Master Chen for me.’

After placing the dishes on the wooden table in the front yard, Duan Yixin went to the bedroom and took out the oil lamp. She lit the oil lamp, placed it on the wooden table, and sat down.

Following the smell of blood, Duan Yixin looked towards the nearby woods and said, “Young Master, if you haven’t had dinner yet, why don’t you come and join me for dinner?”

Liushiliu, lying on a high branch of an ancient tree, was shocked when he heard Duan Yixin’s words. Although the distance between them is more than two hundred meters, as a martial arts expert, Liushiliu’s five senses are sharper than ordinary people’s.

He heard Duan Yixin’s words clearly and thought, ‘How did she know I was here? She even looked in my direction. It was like she could pinpoint my location. But how did she do it?’

Despite being confused, wary, and curious, Liushiliu still activated his lightness skill and then jumped down from the ancient tree. In just twenty seconds, he landed lightly in front of Duan Yixin, clasped his fists, and said politely, “Thank you, Miss Duan, for the dinner invitation.”

Duan Yixin nodded and made an invitation gesture, “Please have a seat, Young Master.”

Hearing Duan Yixin call him young master, Liushiliu felt a chill go down his spine. If the commander knew that Duan Yixin called him young master, he didn’t know how the commander would punish him.

Liushiliu quickly shook his head and said, “Miss Duan, you can just call me Liushiliu. There is no need to call me Young Master.”

Duan Yixin was not surprised that Liushiliu gave her a codename instead of his real name. Most soldiers in her previous life also used codenames when performing missions. She nodded and said, “All right.”

Seeing that she agreed not to call him young master anymore, Liushiliu breathed a sigh of relief and sat down. Looking at the food on the table, Liushiliu couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Apart from today’s lunch, this was the only time he saw so much delicious food at once. For more than a decade, his usual meal in the dark tower consisted of only a cold steamed bun and a bowl of thin gruel.

It was not because their master treated him and his brothers as tools but because their master alone had to feed more than two hundred thousand people. Liushiliu felt heartbroken when he thought that his master was even poorer than him.

Duan Yixin calmly observed Liushiliu as she sat in front of him. When she saw Liushiliu’s eyes lit up after seeing the food, she smiled slightly and said, “Please enjoy the food.”

After hearing what she said, Liushiliu came back to his senses. He scratched his cheek and sheepishly said, “Thank you, Miss Duan.”

He then picked up the chopsticks and took a sip of porridge. When he tasted the delicious porridge and smelled the faint aroma of medicinal herbs, his eyes widened in surprise.

‘Is this medicinal porridge? Can Miss Duan make medicinal meals?’

He raised his eyes from the porridge in his bowl, looked at Duan Yixin, and asked, “Isn’t this vegetable porridge?”

Duan Yixin shook her head and said, “My cooking skills are lacking, so I can only make medicinal food. I hope you won’t dislike it.”

Liushiliu swallowed his saliva, looked at the medicinal porridge, and thought, ‘Young Lady, this is medicinal porridge, ah. Even the emperor could not eat this kind of food. How dare I dislike this porridge?’

After Liushiliu calmed down from his surprise, he looked curiously at the plate of fish dishes in front of him. He raised his chopsticks, picked up a piece of fish, and put it into his mouth. He felt his saliva gushing out as a strong, tangy taste spread in his mouth.

As Liushiliu chewed the fish, he heard the crunching sound of his teeth breaking the outer layer of the fish meat. He thought the fish meat would become hard because the skin was very crispy.

However, when he felt the softness and the sweet taste of the fish meat under the crispy skin, Liushiliu’s eyes widened. He didn’t know how Duan Yixin made this dish, but he couldn’t stop eating after the first bite.
