135: Chapter 0135 Secret Weapon

The next morning.

Lin Xiao came to Zhu Ming's old residence again.

When a bottle of pungent, sour-smelling liquid was brought out, both Zhu Ming and Ding Cuihua made strange expressions.

"General Lin, why does this smell like garlic?" Ding Cuihua asked, puzzled.

"I'm not sure, but this is what Yu Zecheng gave me."

Lin Xiao said: "Yu Zecheng said this stuff doesn't keep well, so use it as soon as possible."

"If it works well, send word to me, and I'll have them make more."

"I still have military duties, so I must be going!"

Ding Cuihua hurriedly thanked him; after all, Lin Xiao was a busy man, and him delivering it personally was giving them enough face.

After Lin Xiao left, Ding Cuihua looked hesitant: "Why does it also smell like alcohol? It's too strange."

"Because it's made of alcohol and garlic. I watched him make it until very late last night, and I only left when someone came to patrol."

Liu Hanyi said from the side, but didn't dare mention that she was the one who peeled all those garlic cloves.

Ding Cuihua asked curiously: "Did you really go find that Yu Zecheng? Does that person seem reliable?"

"That person..."

Liu Hanyi shook her head: "I can't read him. He isn't afraid of me at all, acts like he knows everything, and says strange things."

"Then that's it, he must be a man of talent, trustworthy!"

Zhu Ming urged: "Hurry and apply the medicine to your master. The talent that Lin Xiao has his eye on can't be wrong!"

The old man just wanted Shu Yelan to recover as soon as possible; staying here any longer would eventually lead to a major disaster!

Liu Hanyi naturally understood, took the allicin, and went to apply the medicine to the semi-conscious Shu Yelan...

One day later.

Shu Yelan's festering wounds were under control.

Although the garlic smell was a bit unpleasant, at least there was hope!

Shu Yelan was occasionally conscious and was amazed by the effect.

Zhu Ming and Ding Cuihua were also greatly shocked.

"This Yu Zecheng... is truly bizarre. He actually used garlic to treat such a severe injury?" Ding Cuihua found it unbelievable.

"If this miracle medicine were used on the battlefield, it could save countless lives!"

Zhu Ming's face was solemn as he stroked his beard and said: "I would like to meet this person myself."

Liu Hanyi was also very surprised; that unkempt fellow was actually this capable...

However, she was also curious about one thing: how did Lin Xiao discover such an unruly talent and make him work for him?

"Old man, have Junior Brother Su notify Lin Xiao and ask Yu Zecheng to send more medicine!" Ding Cuihua urged.

Zhu Ming nodded and immediately sent a message via carrier pigeon.

Liu Hanyi's eyes flickered, and she had another plan in mind...

Night fell.

Inside the infirmary.

Liu Hanyi broke in again.

But when she entered the laboratory, she found it empty; there wasn't a soul inside.

He wasn't there?

Liu Hanyi felt inexplicably irritated. Shouldn't he be helping her master make medicine? Why wasn't he here?

She hesitated for a while, then decided to wait there.

Waiting until late at night, a yawning figure walked into the laboratory, treading through the snow and rubbing his hands.

As soon as he entered, Liu Hanyi lit the candle.

"Holy crap!"

Lin Xiao pretended to be startled, "Are you a ghost!? Why are you hiding here!?"

Liu Hanyi asked coldly: "Where did you go?"

Lin Xiao looked disgusted: "None of your business?"

But Liu Hanyi smelled a scent like orchids and musk.

"Were you with a woman just now?"

Lin Xiao thought to himself that she had a nose like a dog; he had indeed just crawled out of Xiao Qingxuan's bed.

He had just transferred hundreds of millions to his empress wife and was still savoring the aftertaste.

If he hadn't guessed that Liu Hanyi would come tonight, he wouldn't have bothered coming out.

"Why, is that a problem? If I'm not with a woman, should I be with a man?" Lin Xiao retorted righteously.

"The last time you didn't want to see my face, was it because you were married?"

Liu Hanyi suddenly understood and held the other party in higher regard.

"Stop prying!"

Lin Xiao lit the honeycomb coal himself and started working.

"Don't just stand there! Peel the garlic!!"

This time, Liu Hanyi didn't ask any more questions; she already had experience and quickly entered the state of being a garlic-peeling girl.

When it was late at night, someone came to patrol and inspect the situation inside the infirmary again.

After Liu Hanyi discovered it in advance, she had no choice but to retreat through the back door again.

However, this time, she didn't rush back to her residence, but found a hidden corner to hide in.

She felt that this "Yu Zecheng" had a problem!

When the sky was turning bright, "Yu Zecheng" walked out of the infirmary.

He yawned and walked all the way to a small noodle stall.

"Boss, the usual!"

"Coming right up!"

The boss smiled and served Lin Xiao a bowl of noodle soup.

Lin Xiao finished it in big gulps, paid the money, and swayed toward a small courtyard in the west of the city.

The nearby households were still asleep, so Lin Xiao pushed the door open, walked in, and fell asleep immediately.

Outside the window, Liu Hanyi watched all this, her eyes filled with confusion.

"Is this his home? He doesn't have a wife?"

Liu Hanyi pursed her red lips. Had she guessed wrong again?

Where did that woman's scent come from? Could it be...

Liu Hanyi shook her head, too lazy to think more.

In a flash, she left the city.

Not long after she left, Lin Xiao walked out of the room and flipped into the courtyard next door.

After entering the warm room, Lin Xiao crawled directly into a blanket.

"Yeah... Husband... stop messing around... I still want to sleep..."

Leng Bingyan smelled the scent and knew her husband had come.

Ever since making the allicin, Lin Xiao had smelled like this for the past few days.

"Don't be nervous, just hugging you. You've worked hard these past few days, finding so many people to help me act."

Lin Xiao smiled and rubbed his little concubine's face.

Leng Bingyan closed her eyes, smiled sweetly, and said: "It's not hard... This little courtyard is quite nice to live in."

"I think so too, especially coming over to find you; there's a thrill of sneaking around!"

"Hmph, I think you want to steal that 'Little Liu's' heart, right?"

Leng Bingyan snorted: "Are we going to have another sister soon?"

"Am I that kind of person?"

Lin Xiao laughed: "I just want to see what kind of secrets Yanyu Pavilion is hiding. Besides, if I can win over this master and disciple, and thereby win over Yanyu Pavilion, it will also be a great help to us."

"Whatever... Anyway, whatever you want to do, Yaner will support you..."

Lin Xiao was invigorated upon hearing this, "Since that's the case, I can't treat Yaner badly..."

For a moment, the room was like spring.

Two days later, Shu Yelan's condition had improved significantly, and the festering wounds actually showed signs of healing?

When Lin Xiao went to see, he found it unbelievable himself.

Was it the allicin made by this crude method, or was this woman's internal energy profound, or did both have a connection.

Zhu Ming and his wife proposed wanting to meet Yu Zecheng, feeling he was a medical genius.

But Lin Xiao politely declined, saying only that Yu Zecheng had a peculiar personality and was the Zhenbei Army's secret weapon, so it wasn't suitable for him to have contact with too many people.

Liu Hanyi stood by, pretending to be busy pouring tea and water, but there was a hint of smugness in her eyes.

Secret weapon? Heh... ridiculous.

She even knew exactly where Yu Zecheng lived!

Yesterday, she even took the opportunity to buy groceries in the city to sneak into Yu Zecheng's house and observe his living environment.

She knew exactly how many clothes he had and what books he read.

After asking around, the neighbors all said he was single, unmarried, and had only moved in a short while ago.

This Lin Xiao thought he had hidden Yu Zecheng very well, not knowing that she had already figured him out!
