Chapter 405: Remnants of the Water Bandits



Chapter 405: Remnants of the Water Bandits

Although Qi Chaihu had been frightened all the way, he did not dare to rest now that he had finally settled down.

First of all, I got some sleep during the day, so I feel pretty energetic now.

Besides, it was extremely busy outside at the moment, so he should just stay by Fu Zhiyi's side. After all, at the moment, it was the safest place to be by Fu Zhiyi's side.

But Fu Zhiyi fell asleep, and the man next to him was like a mute, not saying a word for a long time.

Qi Chaihu sat for a while, calculated the time, and pulled out the silver needle from Fu Zhiyi's arm.

At this moment, the silver needle was pulled out and no more blood flowed out of the wound on the arm.

Qi Chaihu then took out a small porcelain jar, scooped out the white ointment inside, and applied it on the wound.

Although Fu Zhiyi was in a coma, he couldn't help but frown when applying the ointment to him.

If it were any other patient, Qi Chaihu would probably deliberately use a heavier technique to make the patient suffer a little and learn a lesson.

But when he looked at Fu Zhiyi, he sighed and used gentler techniques.

After being evenly applied, the white ointment quickly turned into a transparent film that wrapped the wound.

Qi Chaihu then took out a clean white cloth and re-bandaged Fu Zhiyi's arm.

Despite all this trouble, Fu Zhiyi was still sleeping.

After finishing everything, Qi Chaihu covered Fu Zhiyi with a quilt.

She sat aside and stared at the man next to her.

After staring for a long time, his eyes became sore, and Qi Chaihu withdrew his gaze with a look of defeat.

I was so bored that I simply opened the window a little and looked outside.

Although his movement was small, it still alarmed the imperial guards guarding outside Fu Zhiyi's room.

When Qi Chaihu moved his eyes closer, he saw two huge heads and four shiny, cold black eyes outside the window.

Qi Chaihu was so frightened that he took several steps back before he could stand firm.

I couldn't help but defend myself: "Well, the smell of blood in this room is too strong. I opened the window a little to let some fresh air in so that the adults can feel more comfortable."

After hearing this explanation, the two huge heads slowly moved to the side.

One of them nodded at Qi Chaihu and said, "In that case, Doctor, you can open the window a little wider. With us brothers watching over you, everything will be fine."

As he said this, he widened the gap in the window a little more.

Qi Chaihu forced a smile and nodded.

At this moment, the sound of fierce quarreling came from far away outside. Qi Chaihu couldn't suppress his curiosity. He moved to the window again and tried to squeeze half of his head out to see what was happening outside.

When he had only half his head out, he heard the conversation between the two soldiers guarding outside.

One of them lowered his voice, his tone still filled with anger and disdain: "Damn it, these water bandits have been causing trouble for years, and these palace soldiers are blind and deaf, pretending not to see anything, allowing these water bandits to grow stronger! Now that we have spent so much effort and finally wiped out the water bandits, you rush over here in a hurry? What's going on? Are you trying to steal the credit?"

Another sneered, "Thinking of stealing the credit from our Imperial Guards? I'm afraid those palace guards are just daydreaming! We're lucky we didn't report them for dereliction of duty!"

"I'm afraid it's just hindsight. He knows we've started the fight, so he wants to make himself familiar and help clean up the battlefield or something, so he can atone for his mistake."

"You have a good plan, huh..."

"Alright, our Commander Wei knows what's going on. There aren't many people in this world who can take advantage of him! And something like this has happened again. Commander Wei is furious, and these people bumping into him at this time is just the right time to take the blame."

The last sentence was full of gloating.

Qi Chaihu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth when he heard this.

That’s right. These pirates have been causing trouble for many years. Even if they don’t have enough ability, they can still report to the court and ask for help, right?

And it shouldn't be left to its own devices like this.

Now they are being bullied and ridiculed by the Imperial Guards, and it is all what they deserve!

Although he didn't know how these imperial guards appeared, Qi Chaihu knew very well that it was better not to ask about things he didn't know.

After listening to the most important part, I closed the window contentedly.

It was still early, so I found a corner, wrapped myself tightly in clothes, and dozed off.

When I woke up again, it was already early morning.

The first thing Qi Chaihu did after waking up was to take Fu Zhiyi's pulse.

After the nourishment of the medicine and a good night's sleep, Fu Zhiyi looked better.

Although it was still pale, at least it didn't look like it was about to die at any moment.

Qi Chaihu breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his dry eyes, and said, "I'm going to make medicine for Master Fu. You stay here. If anything happens, call me immediately."

The big man nodded.

Only then did Qi Chaihu open the door with confidence.

Outside the room, security was still tight, with plenty of guards on both sides.

When he saw Qi Chaihu coming out, he swept his vigilant eyes around before retracting them.

Qi Chaihu calmed himself down, walked a distance outside, and arrived on the deck.

I was stunned at first sight.

On the deck of the nearby ship, there were about dozens of people lying, kneeling, and tied up. They looked listless and seemed to be half dead.

There are soldiers guarding nearby.

The two boats were so close that Qi Chaihu could even see the people lying there. Their lives or deaths were unknown. Some were still breathing faintly, some had broken arms, some had broken legs, and some had their arms and legs broken and hanging at unnatural angles.

These people are left unattended and show no signs of being treated.

Perhaps the shock on Qi Chaihu's face was too obvious, as a familiar voice said, "These are the surviving remnants of the pirates. They are all being detained here, awaiting your Excellency's decision."

Qi Chaihu looked over and saw that it was Tang Liang who was speaking. The look in his eyes as he looked at these pirates was full of hatred and murderous intent.

Qi Chaihu swallowed his saliva and couldn't help asking, "But, but there are women and children inside——"

Tang Liang sneered, "The remnants of the bandit's lair are not innocent! These people are the descendants of the bandits, their wives and children. Many of us brothers have died at their hands! Moreover, Doctor Qi probably doesn't know that Master Fu was injured by one of these remnants' children—"

When Qi Chaihu heard this, the little bit of compassion he had in his heart immediately disappeared.

Withdrew his gaze.

After walking two more steps forward, I finally saw the river.

After a night of washing by the river water, the bloody smell on the river surface had dissipated a lot.

The reeds on both sides had been burned red and black, stretching into the distance.

There were many small sampans lying around on the water, which should have belonged to the pirates. There were several corpses piled on each sampan.

In the distance, there were many imperial guards, paddling sampans and searching through the reeds.

When they saw the pirate's body, they directly fished it out and put it on the sampan.
