Three days later, Xikun withdrew his troops.
Knowing that Kun Wushang was completely defeated, Gu Huaijiang still decided to stay for five days, lest the Xikun army leave and return.
From the highest point of the bamboo mountain, you can clearly see the route of the Xikun army. Gu Shubai went up the mountain with Yufu on his back, and only put her down when it was in a stable place.
Originally, there was no need to bring Yu Fu here, but Gu Shubai knew that she was merciful to Kun Wu's injury, so he specially brought her to Zhushan to have a look.
After seeing it with her own eyes, she probably felt more at ease.
Yu Fu looked at the other side of the mountain, the long line of the Xikun army leaving along the official road, it was too far away to see people's faces clearly, and he didn't know what expressions were on their faces.
But the desperation and sadness emanating from the whole team was clear no matter how far away they were.
"When we came there was an army of 250,000, and when we left, only these remnants and defeated generals were left. It's really embarrassing."
Yufu saw a touch of bright yellow in the team, it was the emblem of the royal family, and Kun Wushang should be in that sedan chair.
Gu Shubai said: "Although Gu's army won a complete victory, there are more casualties than ever before. What is gratifying is that you have improved the water and soil of Zhuguan with a large amount of medicinal materials sent by the court. At least now the wells in the well The water is ready to drink."
Yu Fu said happily: "Yes, I saw chrysanthemums blooming in the field two days ago, although they are small, they are real new life. I don't know if those trees that died due to poison can be as tough as daisies and come back to spring again .”
The two stood side by side on the top of the mountain, with the mountain wind howling, Gu Shubai took off the cloak on his body and put it on for her.
She was already wearing a cloak, but now she was wearing another one. The two cloaks were stacked together, and the hem was blown up slightly by the wind.
Yu Fu looked down, "Big Brother, aren't you cold?"
The wind was so strong that it seemed to blow people away, but Gu Shubai's figure was stable, and he didn't seem to be shivering at all.
"I walked with you on my back for half an hour, and the heat was too late, so how could it be cold?"
That's right.
Yu Fu blushed, "Then I'll go down the mountain by myself. I also walked the mountain road when I was in Immortal Valley, so there's no problem."
Compared with the tall bamboo mountain, the mountain of Xianren Valley is just a small hillside.
Gu Shubai pointed down the mountain, "Look down, if you are not afraid, I will let you go by yourself."
Yu Fu came up on his back, but he didn't realize how steep the mountain was. When he looked down, the mountain wall was almost perpendicular to the ground.
She swallowed, thinking about how to take back her brazen words.
Gu Shubai took her hand and pulled her closer, "Don't stand too outside, you are dressed so much, you are like a snow ball, you can roll down the mountain if you roll."
Yu Fubuyi, "I'm already at the height of your shoulders, how can I look like a ball?"
When she was a child, she was short, and everyone said she looked like a ball in thick cotton-padded clothes in winter, but now
She can't do it.
"Well, it's not like a ball. The mountain of Zhushan is steep, and it can roll down straight without a ball. You'd better come up honestly."
He bent down and asked Yu to help him onto his back.
Yu Fu looked down the mountain again, and suddenly remembered what they said in their letter about being besieged by a group of snakes, it seems to have happened on Zhushan.
"Big brother, where were you attacked by snakes last time?"
Gu Shubai turned around, stepped on his feet, "It's right here."
"Then where did you find the seven-color gem?"
Gu Shubai thought for a while, then pointed to the way down the mountain, "We used the purse you gave us to escape the attack of the snakes and go down this mountain road. We felt that the snakes would not be able to catch up for a while, so we stopped for a while. Rest. I sprinkled a little medicine powder from my purse on the wound of the soldier who was bitten by a snake, thinking it might work, and happened to see that seven-color gemstone on the ground."
Yu Futing told him about the events of that day, not afraid, but interesting.
"Why did the elder brother think of sprinkling the medicinal powder in his purse on his wound? Those medicinal powders can indeed cure snake venom. The soldier must have been saved afterwards, right?"
Gu Shubai nodded, "The smell of those medicinal powders has the effect of detoxifying, so I will try a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Otherwise, even if we go down the mountain non-stop, it will take half an hour, and the soldier may not be able to hold on."
Yu Fu looked at him with a smile, "Big brother is really smart. Then we will also go down this road, maybe we can see seven-color gems!"
She stood in front of him, raised her hands high, and motioned for him to hug him from the front, "The way down the mountain is too steep, if I'm on your back, the two of you will roll down together, how about hugging like this?"
Gu Shubai couldn't laugh or cry.
What kind of hug is this, like a koala hanging from your body
He took off Yufu's two hands and carried her on his shoulders, Yufu suddenly cried out in surprise.
"It's still more convenient this way."
He walked down the mountain with a smirk, Yufu didn't dare to struggle, for fear of accidentally causing Gu Shubai to fall from the mountain.
She quickly discovered the benefits of being carried like this, "Brother, walk slowly, I can just see the ground like this, and maybe I can see seven-color gems! The gems you sent back last time were given by me. Your Majesty."
Gu Shubai asked as he walked, "Why did you give it to Your Majesty? I specially gave that gem to you as a souvenir. I don't want you to pass it on to someone else."
Yu Fu hurriedly explained, "You just put it in the envelope like that, I didn't know you gave it to me, I thought it was the general or the second or third brother who found it..."
Gu Shubai just made a joke with her, "Then why did you give it to His Majesty?"
"At that time, the news that the general crossed the boundary marker and attacked the Xikun army was reported back to the court. I was worried that some people in the court would use this as an excuse to criticize the Gu family army, so they simply acted first. Your Majesty is naturally happy to see the seven-color gems that symbolize triumph. When the military report is sent back, they will only look at the victory and ignore other things."
Gu Shubai smiled back at her, "Yufu is really smart. There was a family letter from the house, and Gu Xiang and Gu Yi described what you said in the palace that night vividly. Father was very surprised."
"When was the letter from home, why didn't I see it?"
Yufu moved around in dissatisfaction, Gu Shubai put her on the stone by the roadside, where they picked up the seven-color gem last time.
"The whole book was written about your demeanor that night. Father expected that you didn't want to read it, so he didn't give it to you."
Yu Fu was frightened by him, "Oops, what did fifth brother and sixth brother say about me? They always exaggerate their words, so they must be terrible. I'll take a look when I get down the mountain!"
Gu Shubai snorted softly, "The two of them don't exaggerate when they speak, they only exaggerate when they praise you."
The two of them looked like Yufu's little followers, and after Su Yunyan married into Guhou's mansion, they might be three little followers.
Gu Shubai thought about it, couldn't help laughing out loud, Yu Fu hurriedly asked him what he was laughing at.
"It's nothing, I just think the two of them are very strange. I used to praise my father or me, but I didn't see them being so proud and flamboyant."
Yu Fu said: "That's natural, how can you exaggerate when you praise your own father and brother? If others listen to it, they must say that the people in Guhou's Mansion are not humble."
Gu Shubai asked her back, "Aren't you also their sister-in-law?"
"Ahem..."
Yu Fu choked on his words, her face turned reddish, she didn't know how to reply to him.
You can't be choked every time he says this, can you
Yu Fu was looking for something to say back, when she suddenly saw a shiny object at her feet, she raised her foot with a gasp, and dug that object out of the ground.
It is a seven-color gem the size of an egg!
"Big brother, look!"
Yufu wiped off the dirt on the gemstone with a handkerchief, and the gemstone showed its original appearance, with gorgeous seven-color brilliance flowing, more magnificent than any other gemstone in the world.
She said that she was looking for seven-color gemstones, but she was just joking, but she didn't expect to find them.
The seven-color gemstone was also found here last time. It was only the size of a fingernail, and its brilliance was already too beautiful, but this one was as big as an egg.
Yu Fu was overjoyed, Gu Shubai looked at her hand, was stunned for a moment and then laughed out loud.
Yufu found it as soon as he said he was looking for it. Is she a fairy in the sky
"It seems that the gods favored me, Gu Jiajun, and picked up seven-color gems in both victories. Yufu, you are really a little lucky star of our family!"
He hugged Yufu tightly in his arms, as happy as a child.
Yu Fu was stunned, and shyly stretched out his hand from his arms, "I gave the seven-color gemstone to His Majesty last time, so what should we do with it?"
