Chapter 503: Recovered
Pulling the cork from the jade bottle, the other prison guard poured out a small black pill and fed it to the bearded man.
Watching the wounds slowly stop bleeding, he put away the jade bottle and said, "Stop asking. You will die faster the more you know."
Hearing this, the first prison guard shuddered. Looking at the severed limbs, he asked, "What should we do with the limbs?"
"Feed them to the dogs," the other prison guard answered calmly as he dragged the half-dead bearded man away.
Watching his comrade leave without looking back, the prison guard looked at the limbs on the ground and let out a helpless sigh. Left with no choice, he went out to find a sack.
Moments later, the prison guard returned and put the severed limbs into the sack. After tying it up, he carried the sack on his back and left the underground prison.
While the prison guard went to dispose of the severed limbs, Feng Xiyan returned to the barracks.
When he stepped into the commander’s tent and saw Fan Wanming, Xue Ruhong, and Ding Zhenshun inside, he asked, "How is it?"
Fan Wanming clasped his fists and ed, "ing to the Great General. The entrance to the underground river has been sealed."
"Well done." Taking the main seat, Feng Xiyan gestured for the generals to sit down.
After everyone was seated, Feng Xiyan said, "This general followed the masked men to Fairy Bai’s temple."
Hearing this, Xue Ruhong thought for a moment before his eyes flickered with realization. "Great General, their target is Fairy Bai?"
Feng Xiyan replied, "Yes and no."
Confused by his answer, Xue Ruhong exchanged looks with Fan Wanming and Ding Zhenshun.
"Great General, what do you mean by yes and no?" Fan Wanming asked.
Feng Xiyan looked at the three of them and explained, "When this general arrived at Fairy Bai’s temple, this general saw that the leader of those masked men was trying to take out the wooden mirror held by Fairy Bai’s golden body."
Pausing briefly, Feng Xiyan added coldly, "This general guessed that the item they were searching for should be the bronze mirror."
Listening to this, the three generals frowned deeply.
Seeing their worried expressions, Feng Xiyan said, "This general has already captured the masked men and locked them in the underground prison. General Fan, when you have time, go and interrogate them. Find out why they want the bronze mirror and who their master is."
Clasping his fists, Fan Wanming replied, "Yes, Great General."
Feng Xiyan nodded, then added, "It’s almost dawn. All of you should return and get some rest."
Standing up from their seats, Fan Wanming, Xue Ruhong, and Ding Zhenshun clasped their fists and responded in unison, "This subordinate takes his leave."
"Mhm."
After the three of them left the tent, Feng Xiyan closed his sore eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose.
Moments later, he stood up and went to the bed. Without taking off his clothes, Feng Xiyan lay on the thin bedding. The moment his head touched the bed, he fell asleep.
While Feng Xiyan drifted into a dreamless sleep, time passed slowly.
A few hours later, when the sky began to change color, far away at the Feng Clan’s shadow guards headquarters, Feng Si slowly woke up.
Feeling sore all over, he let out a soft groan. "Ugh..."
Hearing the groan, Feng Shi turned to look at the bed. Seeing Feng Si finally open his eyes, he let out a sigh of relief.
Putting down the medical book he was reading on the wooden table, Feng Shi stood up from the stool and walked to the bedside.
Sitting on the bed, he looked at Feng Si and asked, "Fourth Brother, how do you feel?"
Feng Si looked at Feng Shi, then asked, "Tenth Brother, how long have I been sleeping?"
Feng Shi took his wrist and answered while checking his pulse, "Fourth Brother, you have been asleep for three full days."
When Feng Si heard this, he frowned slightly. "Three full days?"
"Mhm." Feng Shi nodded and retracted his fingers from Feng Si’s wrist.
Looking at Feng Si’s rosy complexion, Feng Shi said, "Fourth Brother, the poison inside your body is already gone. You just need to eat something to replenish your energy, but you should be careful with the external wounds."
Hearing this, Feng Si nodded and pushed his weak body up from the bed.
Sitting on the bed, he moved his limbs and found that his internal injuries were completely healed, leaving him with only a few external wounds. Other than feeling hungry, there was nothing wrong with his body.
Feng Shi watched him examine himself and said, "Fourth Brother, now that you have recovered, will you continue your mission?"
Feng Si paused, then shook his head. "No. I have completed my mission. I plan to go to Xiqiang City and to the Master."
Knowing that Feng Si’s mission was highly confidential, Feng Shi didn’t ask further. Taking out a small jade bottle from his Qiankun Pouch, he handed it to Feng Si.
"Fourth Brother, these are pills I refined for your injuries. Remember to take one pill every morning. There are thirty pills inside. After you finish them, you will be fully recovered."
Putting the jade bottle away, Feng Si said, "Got it."
Seeing that there was nothing else he needed to do, Feng Shi stood up and picked up the medical book.
Before leaving, he said, "Although the medicine given by Brother Hua is very effective, we don’t know if there are any side effects. Just in case, if you feel anything wrong with your body, remember to come find me."
Nodding at him, Feng Si replied, "Understood."
After Feng Shi left, Feng Si put on his clothes and went to the dining area to fill his empty stomach.
While Feng Si was eating, the news of his awakening spread throughout the headquarters.
After finishing his meal and taking a bath, Feng Si went to find Feng Er. Standing outside Feng Er’s office, he knocked on the door.
Knock, knock, knock.
