Chapter 301: The First Batch of Zhenbei Army Lands on the Island
Su Yunhai glanced at his daughter, and seeing that she reluctantly agreed, he said, "Alright, then I'll put them away together later."
Upon hearing this, Xie Chengyuan finally smiled and nodded immediately, as if afraid the other party would change their mind.
After checking all the supplies, everything matched except for the food and other supplies that the Zhenbei Army consumed daily.
Except for the camp where General Xie Jiuzhong and Mu Wanjun were stationed, all the other tents assembled from boxes had been removed.
Xie Chengyuan immediately ordered the army to descend the mountain and begin their journey.
Only a hundred or so secret guards were left to protect the general.
Xie Chengyuan's own forces, including the remaining two thousand Silver Armor Guards, also set off with the main army.
Each person carried only about a month's worth of food, which was considered a light trip compared to before.
After the entire army has withdrawn.
Su Yunhai waved his hand, and Shen Shuli secretly manipulated things.
The densely packed boxes that were originally piled up all disappeared on the spot.
Xie Chengyuan was full of praise for Su Yunhai, showering him with all sorts of sweet words.
"Uncle Su, it's fortunate that you were here, otherwise the Zhenbei Army would have taken at least twice as long to reach the dock."
Su Yunhai was so flattered that he felt like he possessed a magic bag for a moment.
Mu Wanjun's tent was filled with medical equipment, so it was not convenient for her to be disturbed.
Xie Chengyuan and the other two stayed in Xie Jiuzhong's room, sleeping on the floor to rest and take care of him.
The food was cooked directly from Su Yunhai's Qiankun bag, so there was no need to build a separate stove to cook.
But the room was very cold, and we needed to light a charcoal brazier to make it a little warmer.
Xie Jiuzhong hadn't had a proper rest in a long time.
I slept for three whole days before waking up.
During this period, Xie Chengyuan would feed his father the Su family's secret medicine twice a day.
Su Yunhai was very generous and gave Xie Chengyuan ten more bottles as a reward for the 300,000 yuan.
Give it to me when I'm done using it.
To prevent the spiritual spring medicinal wine from being left outside for too long and causing its spiritual energy to dissipate.
Mu Wanjun spent a full five days.
Only then was the antidote pill that Xie Jiuzhong needed developed.
Xie Jiuzhong's body contains a wide variety of toxins that combine and mutate, making the situation very complex.
Developing a perfect antidote is an extremely difficult medical challenge.
However, Mu Wanjun developed the antidote in just five days.
He's absolutely a medical genius!
During these five days.
Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai were a bit bored, so they spent their days wandering around the nearby mountains, hunting to stretch their muscles.
Only Xie Chengyuan remained in place to guard Xie Jiuzhong and Mu Wanjun.
However, the Zhenbei Army had hunted all the prey in the nearby mountains, and the father and daughter had caught nothing, leaving them both feeling dejected.
Mu Wanjun excitedly took the medicinal herbs and walked out of the room, only to find that the military camp outside had already been completely evacuated.
Only the house of the General Who Guards the North, located not far away, remains.
She quickly grabbed the antidote and called out from outside the door, "Ah Li, are you in there?"
Xie Jiuzhong had already woken up and was sitting on the bed chatting with his son.
Upon hearing this, Xie Chengyuan quickly went out to greet the person.
"Princess, you've come out of seclusion? Ah Li and Uncle Su are still wandering around in the nearby mountains. Please come in, it's cold outside."
Mu Wanjun nodded to indicate that she understood.
As soon as he entered, he saw the general sitting on a makeshift bed on the floor, looking at him.
Mu Wanjun could tell at a glance that the general's complexion was much better than before, but there was still a lot of toxins hidden in his body, which caused his complexion to have a turbid color.
She squatted down next to the general and handed the bottle containing the antidote to Xie Jiuzhong.
"General, I have developed the antidote. Please drink it quickly."
"In seven days at most, all the toxins in your body will be eliminated. During this time, I will prepare special medicinal meals and acupuncture for you to help you recover your depleted body as soon as possible."
Xie Jiuzhong knew that the Zhenbei Army had been completely transferred and all its supplies had been taken away.
The weather is unusually cold right now, and the Zhenbei Army has already brought back and eaten everything edible from this mountain.
At this moment, there was only some basic rice and flour in the room, and there was no way to prepare special meals for him.
Xie Jiuzhong didn't want to make things difficult for the young girl, so he smiled, took the antidote, swallowed it in one gulp, and then politely declined.
“Princess Anrong, I thank you for the antidote. As for medicinal cuisine, let’s forget about it. We don’t have the means for that right now. As long as it can cure the poison, that’s enough. We can talk about it when we have the means in the future.”
Mu Wanjun thought about it and realized that there was no such condition at the moment, so she didn't continue the topic and instead chatted with her to pass the time.
Soon.
Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai returned empty-handed.
The two were clearly not very interested.
In order to hunt prey, the two even secretly flew a helicopter and launched a drone to carefully survey the surrounding mountains.
In any case, no trace of prey was found.
They didn't expect it either.
The Zhenbei Army is so ruthless.
There isn't even a mouse to be seen in the surrounding mountains.
It's unclear whether the Zhenbei Army captured too many animals, or if the wild beasts simply couldn't withstand the unusual climate and migrated.
Xie Chengyuan had sharp ears and noticed the two had returned quite early on.
He immediately got up and went out to greet them, only to bump into the two of them.
"Uncle Su, A-Li, you're back? The princess is out and waiting for you inside," Xie Chengyuan reminded them.
Upon hearing this, Shen Shuli's lifeless eyes instantly lit up.
My best friend is finally out, so they can set off now!
She's been so bored these past few days.
"okay, I get it."
Shen Shuli immediately entered the tent and saw Mu Wanjun taking Xie Jiuzhong's pulse.
"Princess, you've finally come out!" Shen Shuli walked over quickly to greet her.
Xie Jiuzhong had taken the antidote a while ago, and it was time for acupuncture. Mu Wanjun was administering acupuncture to him to help with detoxification, which would make the effects faster.
Mu Wanjun nodded to Shen Shuli, then continued to give Xie Jiuzhong acupuncture.
At first, Xie Jiuzhong kept his eyes open and chatted with Mu Wanjun occasionally.
But later on, he became drowsy.
Mu Wanjun gently reminded him, "General, don't resist the drowsiness. Sleep when you feel like it. You can better detoxify and recover when you're asleep."
Upon hearing this, Xie Jiuzhong gave up struggling, relaxed his body, and quickly fell asleep.
Su Yunhai and Xie Chengyuan chatted for a few minutes outside before walking in.
Shen Shuli looked at the group and asked, "Then can we move too?"
Xie Chengyuan looked at Mu Wanjun and asked about his father's condition. He needed to see how his father's health was before he could make a decision.
"Princess, how is my father? Is it a good time to travel now?"
Mu Wanjun said, "Don't worry, there won't be any problems. Besides, we can take the helicopter back to the ship directly. We can take the general while he's asleep and bring him on the helicopter without exposing our secret."
Su Yunhai nodded and said, "That's right. We have immortal artifacts, so there's no need to suffer in vain. Come on, let's pack everything up and set off immediately."
Upon hearing this, Xie Chengyuan's eyes lit up immediately.
He thought that Su's father didn't want to reveal the immortal artifact in front of his father, and he was already prepared to leave.
But he didn't expect that they would be able to take a helicopter directly back this time!
Not only can it save a lot of time, but you also don't have to worry about your father's health not being able to handle it!
It turns out they had already considered everything extremely carefully.
Su Yunhai and Xie Chengyuan immediately set to work, dismantling the last two tents made of boxes and then putting everything into their 'Qiankun Bag'.
To prevent the general from getting too cold, a warm fox fur quilt was specially prepared to wrap him up tightly, ensuring he wouldn't get cold.
Then Xie Chengyuan carried the person onto the helicopter.
After everything is ready.
Su Yunhai piloted the helicopter, taking the four of them directly to the dock near Zezhou Prefecture.
along the way.
They could also see the long column of the Zhenbei Army, who had set off five days earlier.
At a pace of 100 li per day, we have only traveled 500 li so far. We still need at least 1,500 li to reach the dock, which means at least 15 days.
Xie Chengyuan was quite moved after seeing it.
"Uncle Su, do you think it's possible for us to create a flying artifact like this? It would be so convenient..."
He was just making a casual remark, knowing in his heart that it was impossible to achieve.
"Um, well, maybe that's not possible..."
Su Yunhai felt helpless.
This place doesn't even have the conditions to enter the steam engine era, yet it wants to build airplanes?
but.
There are quite a few usable machines in my daughter's space.
Perhaps we can develop electricity soon.
With electricity, many other projects can be accelerated!
The helicopter hovered over the dock for a moment.
There was no sign of the fleet.
Su Yunhai continued to navigate the boat, searching for its position on the sea.
Xiao Yuxuan led his fleet, and whenever they encountered areas with large schools of fish, he would have the fleet stop to catch them as quickly as possible.
In just a few days.
The holds of all sixty ships, large and small, were filled with fish, about one-third of the way through.
The harvest will be absolutely substantial!
Locate the fleet.
Shen Shuli contacted Xiao Yuxuan in advance and asked all the crew members to return to the cabin to rest.
Su Yunhai landed the helicopter on the deck of ship number eight.
“Nephew, there are still empty rooms on ship number eight. Why don’t we arrange for your father to stay on ship number eight?” Su Yunhai suggested.
Xie Chengyuan readily agreed and nodded, saying, "Okay, Uncle Su, then I'll take Father back to his room first."
"Yes, it's right next to my room. You'll see it when you go in," Su Yunhai said, pointing the way.
Xie Chengyuan was worried that the sea breeze would worsen his father's condition, so he immediately carried the emaciated general back to his room.
Xiao Yuxuan looked at Shen Shuli and Su Yunhai and said, "Uncle Su, Shuli, it seems like there are more and more fish in this sea area lately. Every boat has caught a lot of seafood. If we keep storing it in the hold, it will probably spoil. Should we have Shuli store it in her spatial storage?"
Su Yunhai thought for a moment, then said with some difficulty, "If we take them all away, the crew members on the ship will probably all notice something is wrong, and then it will be difficult to explain."
Shen Shuli understood the concerns between the two.
This illustrates the duality of things; every advantage has its disadvantage.
If it needs to be kept secret, then it will be extremely inconvenient.
However, if it is made public even slightly, there is a risk that the secret will be exposed.
The increasing population on the island means that the cost of supplies is also increasing.
Relying solely on Shen Shuli's spatial resources to survive would be an extremely heavy burden for her.
They must stockpile enough food to ensure a sufficient supply so that everyone has the energy to do more work and speed up the construction of the island.
Storing these seafood items in the space not only ensures the freshness of the food but also frees up more space on the boat for continued fishing.
