Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild Chapter 501 – Town in Nanyi Country (Chapter 2)

Chapter 501: Town in Nanyi Country (2)

“What? There are actually living puppets?” General Xiao was shocked.

Everyone in the secret passage turned even paler.

Dead puppets were already scary enough. There were actually living puppets?

“Then… What are living puppets?”

After being stunned, Gao Xu hurriedly asked Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng.

“Living puppets are still alright. They will only flare up on the night of the full moon. The rest of the time, they are like ordinary people.”

As to the difference between a dead puppet and a living puppet, Lu Sheng had not come into contact with a dead puppet yet, so she did not know the difference yet.

However, she felt that there must be something more powerful about a living puppet than a dead puppet.

Otherwise, one could be summoned at any time, and the other could only be summoned on the night of the full moon. Why didn’t Xian Jing and Xian Ya just use the dead puppets?

“What’s the difference between the two?” Gao Xu asked.

Chu Sihan explained calmly, “The dead puppets don’t have consciousness and only attack blindly. However, the living puppets are different. They have consciousness and know how to dodge. Moreover, they have high combat ability.”

Gao Xu nodded. “I see!”

Lu Sheng only knew the difference now.

When midnight arrived, everyone heard roars again.

General Xiao hurriedly got someone to put out the fire again.

Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan escaped from the secret passage in the dark.

When Gao Xu saw this, he hurried after them.

The duo seemed to have guessed that he would follow them and stood outside the secret passage to wait.

“Hero Gao, this is for you. Pase it on your body.”

Seeing Lu Sheng pass him something, Gao Xu received it without thinking.

He lowered his head and sized it up seriously before realizing that it was a yellow talisman.

He was about to ask what the talisman was for when Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan flew out and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Gao Xu was dumbfounded. It took him a while to react.

He knew Chu Sihan’s qinggong, but he did not expect Lu Sheng’s to be so amazing.

As an elder, his qinggong was inferior to the two children’s. How embarrassing would it be if word of this got out?

He sighed softly and looked down at the talisman in his hand.

“Miss Lu said to paste it on my body. Could it be that those things are afraid of this?”

He thought for a while and felt that this was very likely.

Hence, he pasted the talisman on himself before flying away, intending to catch up to the two of them.

However, when he arrived, he saw a strange scene.

The puppets roared and spun around. Then, they tilted their heads and collapsed to the ground.

However, there were no humans among the puppets.

Gao Xu thought that he was seeing things. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. However, the result was the same.

One, two, three… countless.

He stood rooted to the ground and stared at the scene in front of him.

“Uncle-Master Gao, why are you still standing there? Come and help.”

Chu Sihan’s cold voice was heard.

Gao Xu looked around but did not see anyone.

“Where are you?”

When the puppets heard his voice, they immediately roared and swarmed towards him.

“Oh no!”

Gao Xu’s expression changed. He turned around and was about to escape when the puppets stopped two meters away from him and waved frantically.

Huh?

Gao Xu was puzzled. Those puppets did not attack him?

“Hero Gao, you’ve pasted the talisman I gave you. We’ve pasted it too. We can’t see you, and they can’t see you too. Quick, help.”

Lu Sheng’s voice came from behind him. Through her voice, Gao Xu could tell that Lu Sheng was behind him.

A gust of wind blew and the necks of the two puppets closest to him were instantly broken.

“Good lad!”

Gao Xu exclaimed and hurried forward to help.

The three of them finished off the hundred puppets.

As this place was very close to the secret passage, everyone was very puzzled when the roars suddenly disappeared.

General Xiao felt that something was amiss and hurriedly sent soldiers to investigate the situation.

When the soldier arrived, the three of them had already torn off their Invisibility Talismans.

Under the light of the street lamp, the two soldiers saw the ground full of corpses and were shocked.

Gao Xu turned back and said to the two of them, “Let General Xiao bring his men out to clean up.”

“Huh?”

The two soldiers regained their senses and hurriedly nodded. “Oh, alright. We… We’ll go now!”

In order to deal with this group of monsters, they had spent a lot of money and manpower. In the end, these two people from Xuan Yue Country, who were the same age as them, dealt with them so easily?

The duo returned to the secret passage in shock and informed General Xiao.

After being stunned, General Xiao hurried out with the soldiers to confirm.

When he saw the ground full of corpses, he was stunned.

“How… How did they do that?”

General Xiao looked at Gao Xu in a daze.

Gao Xu said, “They’re very skilled.”

If he had not used the Invisibility Talisman just now, even he would not believe that such a good thing existed in this world.

Moreover, Lu Sheng gave him this thing because she trusted him. He could not tell anyone about it.

General Xiao looked at Gao Xu and frowned suspiciously.

With a clang, General Xiao’s sword was aimed at Chu Sihan.

Chu Sihan did not dodge. He even extended two fingers and caught General Xiao’s sword.

Crack!

The sword that had accompanied General Xiao for more than ten years was easily broken by Chu Sihan.

General Xiao was dumbfounded, and the other soldiers gasped.

“General Xiao, this doesn’t seem too good.”

Lu Sheng walked forward and spoke coldly.

“Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!”

General Xiao did not care about the broken sword. Instead, he cupped his hands at the two of them and said sincerely, “The two of you are really heroes! I admire you!”

Chu Sihan had long seen that General Xiao did not believe Gao Xu’s words, so he came to test him.

However, he did not care.

He had deliberately broken General Xiao’s sword.

He did not like the feeling of being probed. He wanted to punish General Xiao.

Lu Sheng snorted coldly. “If General Xiao doesn’t believe us, we can leave this town tomorrow morning. There’s no need to test us like this.”

“Sorry, I’m really sorry!”

When General Xiao heard that the duo was leaving, he hurriedly explained, “As the general of a country, I have to be strict. I hope you can understand!”

“General Xiao did this not because you didn’t believe the two young people, but because you didn’t believe me, right?”

Gao Xu was very unhappy.

Did General Xiao doubt his loyalty to Nanyi Country?

“Mr. Gao, I’m so sorry!”

General Xiao also felt that he had been too rash just now.

However, they had spent a lot of effort to kill only one or two puppets.

The two of them killed more than half of them immediately. Anyone would doubt this, right?

Moreover, in the secret passage just now, he had personally heard this young man call Gao Xu Uncle-Master.

Who knew if they were in cahoots?

“What about now? What did General Xiao find out?” Gao Xu asked with a cold smile.

“Mr. Gao, I’m also responsible for the citizens. I hope you can understand!”

Knowing that he had made a mistake, General Xiao lowered his status.

Gao Xu snorted coldly and said in a deep voice, “On account that everyone has the same goal, I won’t bicker this time.”

When General Xiao heard that, he heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Mr. Gao, for your magnanimity!”

Chu Sihan said coldly, “No new puppets should enter tonight. General Xiao, please send everyone back.”

General Xiao nodded and hurriedly instructed the soldiers to send everyone who was hiding in the secret passage back.

Then, he got the other soldiers to transport the puppets elsewhere and burn them.

“Hey, where are you going?”

Seeing that Lu Sheng, Chu Sihan, and Gao Xu were about to leave, General Xiao hurried forward and asked.

Lu Sheng’s attitude was very rude as she said, “Of course we’re going to find an inn. You can’t let us stay overnight in the secret passage, right?”

Since he dared to raise his sword at her men, she could not be blamed for not giving him a good attitude.

General Xiao could tell that Lu Sheng was still angry and smiled awkwardly.

“Well… Will you still stay here tomorrow?”

Recently, those puppets were growing daily. What if more came tomorrow?

After knowing that these two people could finish off a hundred puppets in a short time, General Xiao did not intend to let them leave.

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “We’re not from Nanyi Country. It’s our decision to leave or stay. It should have nothing to do with General Xiao, right?”

“Well…”

General Xiao was speechless.

Lu Sheng was right. They were not from Nanyi Country and had no obligation to do anything for Nanyi Country.

Hence, if they wanted to leave, even if he was the general, he could not insist on keeping them.

After all, the people who insisted on detaining people from other countries would cause a war between the two countries.

“Since General Xiao has nothing else to say, we’ll take our leave first.”

Gao Xu cupped his hands at General Xiao. His tone was not as polite as before.

Seeing the three of them walk away, General Xiao regretted it.

If he had believed Gao Xu’s words just now, things would not have ended up like this.

“Are the two of you really leaving?”

After walking for a while, Gao Xu asked softly.

He had no choice. After all, he was from Nanyi Country and did not want to see Nanyi Country fall into a dangerous situation.

If possible, he naturally hoped that Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng would stay.

“Do you think we went through all the trouble to come here only to leave after killing a hundred puppets?” Lu Sheng asked, amused.

Upon hearing this, Gao Xu smiled.

Lu Sheng probably meant that they appeared here to deal with these puppets.

Gao Xu brought the two of them to the Gao family’s inn and asked the servant to book a good room for them. He also sent delicious food and drinks to them.

He even said that as long as the two of them stayed, he would be responsible for everything.

The duo did not react when they heard that. After all, they really did not lack this bit of money.

—————

The next day.

The sun shone through the leaves and onto the window.

Chu Sihan turned his head to look at the sleeping beauty next to him and smiled.

He slowly moved her hand away from his chest. Afraid of waking the person beside him, he got off the bed lightly.

Unfortunately, she was still woken up by him.

Lu Sheng climbed up groggily and rubbed her eyes. She asked in a groggy voice, “What time is it?”

“Seven in the morning.”

Chu Sihan looked outside and replied softly.

“Ha—”

She yawned and opened her eyes slightly to look out of the window.

“Sleep if you’re tired. I’ll get someone to send some water to wash up and breakfast over.”

Chu Sihan spoke as he put on his clothes.

Lu Sheng nodded and lay back down.

Chu Sihan chuckled and pulled out his black hair that was tucked into his clothes. Then, he turned around and went downstairs.

After seven minutes, Lu Sheng heard the door open again.

She sat up straight and climbed down from the couch.

She had just put on her clothes when Chu Sihan walked in from outside the screen with a basin of water.

“You’re up?”

“Yes.”

She replied vaguely, her face still expressionless.

He could tell that she was not in a good mood.

Chu Sihan placed the items aside.

Lu Sheng took out toothpaste and a toothbrush from the Space Bracelet and started brushing her teeth.

After washing up, she was finally fully awake.

The two of them had just finished their breakfast when there was a sudden knocking on the door.

“Who is it?”

Chu Sihan asked calmly.

“Disciple, it’s me!”

Gao Xu’s voice was heard.

“Come in.”

Just as Chu Sihan finished speaking, the door was pushed open.

“Disciple, niece-in-law, look who’s here!”

Gao Xu walked in with a smile.

Other than him, there was someone following him.

“Hero Ye?!”

Lu Sheng was surprised. “Aren’t you with my master and the rest?”

“Your master asked me to come over.”

Ye Luo walked in with a smile.

“Master.”

Chu Sihan looked very calm, as if he was not surprised that Ye Luo would appear here.

“You came quite quickly.”

After Ye Luo sat down, he chuckled and said, “I also heard news of a puppet attack here not long ago, so I hurried over.”

Lu Sheng nodded and hurriedly asked, “Is my master and the rest alright?”

“Pretty good, but there’s no news from there yet.”

With Gao Xu here, it was inconvenient to say some things.

However, Lu Sheng also knew that ‘there’ should be referring to the news about the Emperor Ghost.

“Senior Brother, I still have some work to do downstairs. I have to go down.”

General Xiao came over early in the morning to ask Gao Xu to bring him over to apologize to Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan. However, Gao Xu rejected him.

He was still hanging out downstairs.

Ye Luo nodded. “Go ahead.”

“Then, take your time to chat!”

Gao Xu turned around and left.

“Xian Jing and Xian Ya should be in Nanyi Country.”

Once Gao Xu left, Ye Luo spoke softly to the duo.

Chu Sihan frowned. “They’re really here?”

“Most likely.”

Ye Luo said in a deep voice, “Some time ago, the strange light in Yong Fu Town suddenly disappeared. However, that strange light appeared in Nanyi Country. In addition to the puppet incident, this proves that the siblings should be in Nanyi Country.”

“If they’re really here, I’m afraid it’ll be troublesome.” Lu Sheng’s expression was a little ugly.

“Change into this.”

Ye Luo suddenly took out two boxes and passed them to the two of them.
