C3 Jealousy
To be able to describe the entire army as his, there was only one person in the entire army, and that was Ji Qingye, the general leading the army here.
Ling Ran looked straight into his eyes as Cui Mengxi calmly spoke.
"General Ji."
"Who are you?"
He answered quickly, admitting her guess.
He raised his hand and brushed it away. Cui Mengxi's clear words, neither haughty nor humble, sounded out.
"My daughter Cui Mengxi has learned martial arts before. Now that she has been assigned to this place as an army doctor, I hope that General Ji will not make things difficult for her!"
In this world, it was extremely difficult for a person like her, who had no status or position, to live on in peace.
If she could stay in the army for the time being, it would be more of a chance to rest. It would be beneficial to her.
Hearing this, Ji Qingye laughed in disdain.
"My Night City Army has always been strict and disciplined. Why would it make things difficult for a small military doctor?"
With this said, the atmosphere immediately turned cold.
Suddenly, Ji Qingye seemed to have thought of something and raised his brows. He spoke indifferently and his voice also became colder.
"Bring it up."
Cui Mengxi was stunned, before she could react, she saw the two people outside entering the room together with the little soldier.
At this moment, although the little soldier seemed to be struggling with his throat, he couldn't even make a sound. His eyes were filled with defeat.
Ji Qingye's cold voice rang out.
"To insult the military doctors, what do you think?"
"Die!"
The two of them replied without the slightest hesitation.
Just as she finished speaking, she saw Ji Qingye pull out a sword from his waist!
The sword's light flashed past and the soldier's head immediately rolled down from his neck. His eyes were wide open and filled with despair and fear.
Throughout the entire process, Ji Qingye didn't even blink.
Killing a man in his face, this action of Ji Qingye didn't mean that he wasn't intimidating them.
However, when he turned to look at Cui Mengxi again, he couldn't help but be shocked once more.
The young girl seemed to be used to life and death. Her eyes were calm without a single ripple. It was as if the one she killed wasn't a person, but a piece of wood.
"Thank you, General Ji, for standing on behalf of this humble woman."
Cui Mengxi cupped her fists in thanks.
Ji Qingye's eyes revealed a hint of interest as he suddenly asked.
"Did you just say you would repay me?"
Hearing this, Cui Mengxi immediately raised her eyes and solemnly said, "It's within my capabilities, I will not refuse!"
"Alright."
Ji Qingye immediately sheathed the sword in his hand. "From what I see, you are quite skilled. Right now, with the two armies at loggerheads, the enemy suddenly changed their general last night. If you have the ability, then go investigate."
Become a scout?
Cui Mengxi only hesitated for a moment before rejecting.
"This humble girl is injured."
Laughing lowly, Ji Qingye casually threw a jade bottle to her and lightly spoke.
"I'll take it that you've agreed. "Remember, three days."
With that, he waved his hand and the two men immediately dragged the soldier's corpse and left with him.
Silence reigned in the room. Cui Meng Xi looked at the jade bottle hesitantly before opening it. She then took a sniff and her eyes widened.
"This …"
Inside the jade bottle was the famous medicine from the Heavenly Cauldron Kingdom, the Heart Healing Ointment!
Just this small bottle was enough to make a thousand gold coins hard to find!
Taking a deep breath, Cui Mengxi carefully kept it in her bosom, intending to use it only after bathing in the night.
At this point, her stomach suddenly felt a rush of hunger. Cui Meng Xi suddenly remembered that she hadn't eaten yet.
It was already past noon, so it would be difficult for him to eat the existing food. He could only go and make some for himself.
Cui Mengxi forced herself up and headed towards the temporary kitchen. Just as she was about to go in and bring out the pot, she suddenly heard a shout from behind her.
