Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!-Chapter 94: Asking For A Reward ( 1 )

Fu Chen’an nodded at the guard and entered the tent. Seeing the General sitting on his bed, he knelt on one knee, cupped his fists, and bowed his head. "Fu Chen’an greets the General."

Lu Qianxuan raised his hand and said, "You may rise."

Standing up, Fu Chen’an noticed that the military physician was staring at him. After a moment, he heard the military physician say, "Squad Leader Fu, I heard that your wound has already healed. Can I take a look?"

Fu Chen’an nodded and untied his sash. At this moment, he was not wearing his full armor and only wore a dark green, narrow-cuffed tunic. After he took off his outer clothes, he also removed his top undergarment.

When Lu Qianxuan saw his undergarment, he narrowed his eyes. He thought that it was silk, but upon closer look, the material was different.

It lacked the radiant, almost shimmering luster of silk. But from the look of the material, it seemed more comfortable than silk. While silk was smooth, it lacked durability. It was also not made from hemp or ramie, as the materials were very different.

Not knowing that his General was staring at his undergarment, Fu Chen’an turned his body and showed his back. The military physician was stunned when he saw the scar.

Under normal circumstances, even without poison, such a deep wound would need at least one month to fully recover. Even so, it would leave a visible scar.

Reaching out, the military physician traced the faint scar on Fu Chen’an’s back and muttered with a deep frown, "Impossible. How could it be?"

After he checked the scar, he grabbed Fu Chen’an’s wrist and took his pulse. As seconds passed, his frown deepened. After a long time, he finally let go and asked, "Squad Leader Fu, what medicine did you use? What prescription did you take?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Hearing this, Fu Chen’an wanted to ask the reason for him to probe this matter. But before he could utter a word, he heard the General say, "Fu Chen’an, reply to his question truthfully."

Under Lu Qianxuan’s sharp gaze, he had no other choice but to tell the truth. With his fists cupped, he replied, "Replying to the General, I’m using a wound ointment given by my wife. I didn’t take any boiled medicine, but my wife prepared medicinal water for me."

The moment he heard this, the military physician asked, "Squad Leader Fu, can you show me the wound ointment? Do you have the medicinal water with you now?"

Knowing that this matter must be important for the old man to be so eager, Fu Chen’an nodded and replied, "It’s in my tent."

"Go back and show them to Physician Mu," Lu Qianxuan said.

Receiving the order, Fu Chen’an tidied up his clothes before he went to his tent to fetch the wound ointment and the medicinal water.

Twenty minutes later, he returned with a waterskin and a jade bottle. When Lu Qianxuan saw the jade bottle, he narrowed his eyes. This jade bottle was made with high-quality jade.

Even without close observation, he knew that this jade bottle was made of a whole piece of jade, and the price should be more than ten thousand taels of silver.

He had heard about Fu Chen’an’s wife, and they had investigated her background.

She was the daughter of a farmer, and her mother died during childbirth. She was often bullied by her stepmother and stepsiblings. When she came of age, she left her home and came to fulfill her engagement.

This kind of situation was common, and they found nothing wrong with her background. As long as she was not a spy and didn’t do anything detrimental to the army, they wouldn’t intervene in the soldiers’ family matters.

But now that he saw the jade bottle, Lu Qianxuan doubted the investigation result. Let alone a poor farming family, even the royal family wouldn’t be able to get this kind of jade bottle without spending a huge amount of money and connections.

Not knowing what his General was thinking, Fu Chen’an handed the jade bottle and waterskin to Physician Mu.

Mu Luo opened the jade bottle’s lid and took a sniff. After taking a sniff, he felt his mind clear up, and his fatigue lessen. He looked at the ointment with amazement.

Thinking that he was hallucinating, he took another deep breath.

This time, Mu Luo felt the effects more clearly. He looked at the ointment and couldn’t figure out the ingredients. But even so, he was sure that this thing was made from precious materials.

"Squad Leader Fu, this is a good thing!" he exclaimed in shock.

Fu Chen’an knew that this ointment was good, but he never expected it to be so good. This old man was famous for his strange personality. He was moody and most of the time behaved like a madman. It was rare for him to show such clear amazement.

When he saw the old man wanting to scoop the ointment, Fu Chen’an quickly snatched it back. Seeing this, Mu Luo was unhappy and asked, "What are you doing?"

Fu Chen’an quickly put away the ointment and replied, "Physician Mu, this ointment is very rare. My wife got it by exchanging all of my family’s fortune in the border market."

Hearing this, Mu Luo frowned and said, "Impossible. Even though I don’t know what ingredients were used to make this ointment, I can guarantee that the materials must be rare and expensive. Even if your wife exchanged her life for it, she might not be able to get it."

When Fu Chen’an heard his words, his gaze turned cold. He glared at the old man and said, "Old man, are you saying that my wife’s life is worth less than a wound ointment?"

Noticing his slip of the tongue, Mu Luo quickly said, "I didn’t mean that. I only want to tell you how expensive this ointment is."

Fu Chen’an let out a snort and warned him, "My wife is priceless. You’d better watch your words."
