Chapter 1792 - 1395: Are Landuoer and the Others Still Alive?

Yuan Bao felt that, as a servant, there were some things one could do, and some things one absolutely shouldn’t do!

For instance, seeking out death was something he, being someone who cherished life, absolutely wouldn’t do!

"Impressive!" Sure enough, Zhou Mu turned around and looked at Yuan Bao with great contempt, then proceeded to tidy up those scattered bottles and jars on his own!

Shi Wujue and the others just watched, not knowing what to say for a moment, until Zhou Mu tidied everything up. Yuan Bao couldn’t hold back his curiosity any longer and asked, "Master, what medicine did you choose for the lady?"

The gaze of Shi Wujue and the others was instantly ignited by curiosity!

They were curious too!

"Someone as kind-hearted and gentle as I am..." Zhou Mu glanced at Yuan Bao, tossed out this unusually sarcastic phrase, and then turned to walk out of the guest room...

The expressions of those left behind turned even more odd...

The phrase "kind-hearted and gentle" was really not suitable for Zhou Mu. This adjective had nothing to do with Zhou Mu!

When it came out of Gu Changsheng’s mouth, everyone just felt a little odd, but when Zhou Mu said it himself, it couldn’t be described as merely odd...

"Yuan Bao, what does your master mean?" Shi Wujue tapped Yuan Bao’s shoulder with his folding fan.

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Yuan Bao scratched his head, "I just feel that my master really isn’t kind-hearted and gentle..."

Heaven pity me, this Yuan Bao is an honest Yuan Bao, a realistic Yuan Bao...

His reply decisively stumped Shi Wujue!

Fine!

Zhou Mu’s own subordinates say so, what can he say?

He feels the same too!

Yuan Bao snapped back to reality and saw his master had already walked far away, quickly scuttled to catch up, "Master, where are you going?"

"Going to eat!" Zhou Mu replied matter-of-factly.

"But we have nothing to eat..." Yuan Bao was puzzled.

"Soon there will be something to eat!" Zhou Mu said calmly.

When the group of four returned to the Guest Garden’s main hall, the front courtyard was already in chaos. Even from a distance, they could hear everything clearly!

"Quick! Quick! Go invite the Mongolian doctor; Miss Landuoer is not well!"

"Quick! Quick! Notify the Clan Leader; something has happened to Miss Landuoer!"

"No, no! Invite a few more Mongolian doctors over, what should we do? What should we do?"

"..."

Upon hearing that Miss Landuoer wasn’t well, those seated in the Guest Garden exchanged bewildered glances.

Then, before long, they saw Gu Changsheng leading two bewildered waiters, carrying two large trays, walking towards them!

Before they even approached, Yuan Bao caught the fragrant scent of meat!

"Roast lamb!"

"Roast beef!"

"..."

Yuan Bao exclaimed a few times, then rushed excitedly towards Gu Changsheng.

"Lady, you’re really amazing, that Landuoer..."

"Ahem!" Landuoer glared at Yuan Bao, fake-coughed, signaling him to shut up, then waved at the two waiters following behind and said matter-of-factly, "Set the food on the table, you may leave; here’s your reward!"

As she spoke, she tossed a purse of Zhijin money over.

The waiter who just set down the tray caught it with an expression of joy, quickly saying, "Thank you for your reward, dear patron! Thank you!"

Gu Changsheng waved them off again, signaling them to leave...

Once the two walked out of the Guest Garden, Gu Changsheng abruptly smacked Yuan Bao on the head angrily, "Are you dumb? Didn’t you notice there are outsiders around? If I hadn’t stopped you quickly, would you have sabotaged yourself?"

Yuan Bao, rubbing his head, chuckled foolishly, "I was just a bit too excited, didn’t notice..."

"Didn’t notice my foot! You’re just an Er Que!" Gu Changsheng scoffed, "You can’t even get a meal together, and I had to do it myself. I really don’t know what use you are..."

The thoroughly despised Yuan Bao had a twitching mouth, yet he couldn’t think of anything to argue back with, feeling extremely aggrieved!

He was the Great Eunuch by the side of Crown Prince Damu! In his whole life, he had never found eating to be a difficulty!

Not being able to reveal his identity, that’s truly too much of a set-up!

It’s not that Yuan Bao is not doing his best!

"Alright, alright, let’s eat! Today’s lunch is quite sumptuous, it can be considered a grand feast on the prairie!" Gu Changsheng didn’t care about Yuan Bao’s aggrieved little expression, knowing that once he saw the food, he’d happily come over soon enough. He simply went to his seat and sat down. As expected, Yuan Bao had already adjusted his mood and eagerly followed, swallowing his saliva with anticipation.

"Darling, you are really amazing, this is truly a feast. Usually, there’s not this kind of lamb meat, nor such abundance!" Yuan Bao looked in amazement at the food arranged on the table and gave Gu Changsheng a thumbs up!

Lamb is precious on the prairie because it represents hope and the future. It would not be slaughtered under normal circumstances except for significant banquets!

Moreover, there was an entire roast lamb before them!

"Well, it’s a diplomatic banquet between the Kelie faction and the Tashi Tribe, how could they not slaughter pigs and sheep?" Without any elders present, Gu Changsheng was the first to start, tearing off a piece of lamb and putting it into his mouth. The lamb was tender, a few degrees more delicious than ordinary mutton. Gu Changsheng’s eyes squinted from joy, praising consecutively, "No wonder it’s a diplomatic feast, indeed much better than the food we’ve had along our journey, I like it!"

Speaking, he reached again to grab more food, but suddenly noticed how quiet it was around!

Except their own evildoer, who was calmly and gracefully picking food, Shi Wujue, Yuan Bao, and the Black Man had not moved an inch, dumbly looking at him.

Gu Changsheng was immediately perplexed, raising a hand to point at the lavish spread on the table, murmuring, "Eat! Why are you all looking at me? Although I’m much more captivating than a feast, looking at me won’t fill your stomachs!"

"Cough, cough..." Zhou Mu, who had just cut a few slices of tender meat and placed them in a small dish in front of Gu Changsheng, was finally chewing some food himself and upon hearing those words, nearly choked, looking dotingly at Gu Changsheng, the deep eyes full of helplessness.

Shi Wujue also lowered his head, rubbing his brow.

Yuan Bao was speechless; he’d once again experienced their darling’s thick skin. Who says they are as captivating as a feast?

This is really...

Even if you truly are as captivating as a feast, you should wait for others to compliment you. Even if others compliment you, you shouldn’t admit it so openly. This is how a lady should behave...

However, such a ladylike demeanor wouldn’t be found on their darling; Yuan Bao no longer held any hope!

Shaking his head, Yuan Bao leaned forward, lowered his voice, and cautiously said, "Darling, now that there’s no one else around, tell us, what’s really going on ahead?"

Saying this, Yuan Bao paused, then added energetically, "Is Landuoer still alive?"

Even if Yuan Bao’s question was too blunt, the master and servant duo of Shi Wujue couldn’t help but bow their heads slightly...

Honestly, they too were puzzled from the bottom of their hearts...

"Smack!"

Gu Changsheng reached out and smacked Yuan Bao on the forehead, saying with a face full of disappointment, "What nonsense are you spouting?! What do you mean, is Landuoer still alive? I’m such a compassionate person, I don’t take lives!"

You’re the one talking nonsense with your eyes open!

Yuan Bao rolled his eyes...

The Shi Wujue duo expressed their disbelief...

Truthfully, the previous bottles, jars, and jewelry were too much of a shock for them!

Taking a piece of lamb from the plate in front of her, dipping it in sauce, Gu Changsheng chewed it contently, then seeing the three around her still hadn’t started eating, rolled her eyes slightly and said, "Alright, I know you guys pity the fairer sex, but you are assuming the worst in the best of people. I truly was compassionate this time, really didn’t take their lives, it’s just..."

After swallowing the meat in her mouth, Gu Changsheng twitched her nose and said, "It’s just they’ll probably have no appetite for a few days!"

"Huh?" Yuan Bao exclaimed, eyes wide open.

"What’s in that medicine bottle is Bowel Cleansing Powder. As the name suggests, it’s for cleaning out the intestines! I thought your master felt that the prairie folks, eating nothing but mutton and beef every day, have too much grease, so they needed to cool down and cleanse their intestines. Hence, I gave a little to Landuoer’s group. So I’m guessing right now they’re all fighting for the toilet at the front..." Gu Changsheng casually remarked as she ate, "These few days, they’ll probably be passing everything they eat, not earning any satisfaction, surely will eat less, and definitely won’t be grabbing our food!"

"How many days will it last?" Although it’s improper to discuss bowel movements at the dining table, Yuan Bao was curious!

"At least seven or eight days..." Gu Changsheng blinked innocently and confidently said, "The medicine I concoct, even if it’s Bowel Cleansing Powder, is much better than those ordinary laxatives, Xiao Er Que, rest assured, the efficacy is guaranteed!"

To keep going for seven or eight days? Even if one isn’t dead, half a life is gone!

What’s more, Landuoer and those guys were already somewhat injured in the Evil Wolf Valley...

There!

This is truly kind-hearted!

Yuan Bao suddenly didn’t know what to say!

Looking at his own darling, then at his completely unfazed master, Yuan Bao only had one thought in his heart at this moment, and that is, his master really isn’t associated with kindness at all!

The Shi Wujue duo clearly thought the same...
