Chapter 209 Another Great Achievement

Er Gouzi met Yang Tie outside the camp by chance. The two talked for a while and got to know each other's recent situation.

He realized that so many things had happened during this period of time.

Everyone thought he was dead, and General Chen even wrote a memorial to him to ask for credit.

Even Zhu'er found this place, thinking he was dead, and helped him to avenge by accident.

Er Gouzi felt mixed emotions when he learned that Zhu'er had made such a big fuss.

He seemed to have deceived Zhu'er too much. She was a simple girl who was more than 1,000 years old and had never experienced the world.

But he was in that kind of environment at the time, and he had to deceive her, and he didn't want to be eaten by Zhu'er.

Alas... It's difficult...

It's difficult to deceive, and it's even more difficult not to deceive.

Er Gouzi sighed. Letting Zhu'er think that he was dead might be a good ending.

Zhu'er would probably forget about himself after being sad for a while.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see General Chen!"

The two walked into the barracks hand in hand. General Chen was sitting on a big chair, holding a pair of shiny shoes in his hand and stroking them gently.

When General Chen saw Er Gouzi, he was also shocked and stood up from his chair.

"Zhang Er Gou! Are you not dead?"

"General, I am lucky to be alive."

"Sit down! Sit down and talk. Why did you take so long?"

"I know that Da Zhou is exhausted and short of supplies. I want to find more supplies for Da Zhou and go deep into the enemy's rear..."

As for why he took so long this time, Er Gouzi had already made up a story on the way back.

Of course, he should not miss any of the merits that should be mentioned, and he should make up some content to fill in the secrets that cannot be told.

The main idea is that he is familiar with the books of sages, loyal to the Da Zhou court, and loyal to the Longxing Emperor.

In order to complete General Chen's plan to obtain food from the enemy, he risked his life several times and survived nine deaths.

In the end, he went through all the hardships, fulfilled his mission, and returned with a full load.

General Chen is also a person who is very good at grasping the key points. When he heard the four words "return with a full load", his eyes were already on Er Gouzi's storage bag hanging on his waist and abdomen.

"Tell me quickly, how many good things did you get this time?"

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission. These 50 storage bags are all full."

Er Gouzi said, taking off the storage bags tied to his body one by one and arranging them on the table in front of him.

There were 50 storage bags, each of which was bulging, obviously full.

"Good! Good! You really lived up to my expectations!"

General Chen picked up a storage bag, probed into it with his spiritual sense, and just took a look, his face was already full of joy.

In this storage bag, there was a bag full of spiritual grains, at least fifty or sixty stones.

What good stuff! Every time a batch of food was sent over from the rear, it would be good to have a few stones of spiritual grains.

After all, spiritual grains must be planted in spiritual fields, and it takes several years or even ten years to mature.

Just this storage bag of spiritual grains is enough for his national defense army to consume for ten days.

And spiritual grains rich in spiritual energy are naturally not comparable to substitutes such as marching pills.

General Chen put down the storage bag in his hand, picked up another one, and found that it was also full of spiritual grain.

"Good! Good..."

"Great job..."

Then he looked at several storage bags, all of which were full of spiritual grain.

More than thirty storage bags in a row, adding up to at least one or two thousand stones of spiritual grain.

With so many spiritual grains, the army can finally open their stomachs and eat a few days of full meals, and even ordinary soldiers can get a few liters.

General Chen was so happy to see so many spiritual grains that his eyes narrowed into slits.

He looked at more than thirty storage bags in a row, and he was a little numb to the spiritual grains.

At this time, when he looked at a storage bag again, his hands trembled and he almost dropped his shoes on the ground.

He thought he had seen it wrong, and took out a handful of marching pills from the storage bag.

These marching pills are the same size and style as ordinary marching pills, but they are rich in spiritual energy.

"Spendthrift! Who is such a spendthrift!"

General Chen's first reaction was spendthrift.

These marching pills are obviously made from spiritual rice.

As we all know, two-thirds of the materials are wasted in the process of making marching pills.

Ordinary grains are used to make marching pills in order to compress the volume and make them easier to carry and eat.

Anyway, the output of ordinary grains is large and they are all grown by the people of Da Zhou, so it is not a pity to waste some of them.

As for spiritual grains, even if they are transported a few more times, few people are willing to waste them.

General Chen quickly picked up the remaining storage bags and checked them one by one, and found that there were more than a dozen bags of marching pills made from spiritual rice.

One such marching pill is made from three buckets of spiritual rice, and two buckets are lost in the middle. Taking one pill is equivalent to eating a bucket of spiritual rice.

Even for a foundation-building strongman, taking one pill a day is enough.

"Er Gou, you went deep into the dangerous place this time and made an unprecedented contribution to Da Zhou."

"I will report to the court and ask for credit for you!"

General Chen has been fighting on the border for so many years, and the food and supplies he obtained before are not as much as this time.

If the army has no food, its combat effectiveness cannot be exerted.

Although they could obtain some monster corpses in battle, it was only a drop in the bucket and could only make up for the loss.

There was still a big difference between the monsters and monsters in the Wan Yao Country.

Most of those monsters had some human blood and some monster blood.

So they looked like both humans and monsters, but also neither humans nor monsters.

Everyone usually eats monsters. Monsters look similar to humans. It's not that they are too hungry, but that few people eat them.

General Chen put away the food brought back by Er Gouzi and immediately wrote a memorial.

First, it shows that Er Gouzi is not dead, and the previous report was a false alarm.

General Chen can't say that he is stupid and made a wrong judgment. He can only add many thrilling plots of fake death to Er Gouzi's merits.

This makes Er Gouzi's merits this time more legendary.

General Chen praised Er Gouzi again before letting him out.

Er Gouzi walked out of the tent with Yang Tie again, and Yang Tie felt mixed emotions.

This time they went out to do the task together. The two agreed to play bad together and just hand over some things to fool around.

I didn't expect Er Gouzi to bring back so many spiritual grains and marching pills.

In this comparison, he looks like a waste.

"Brother Zhang, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Yang Tie hesitated for a while before saying it.

"Brother Yang, just say it!"

Yang Tie was Er Gouzi's enlightenment teacher in the officialdom. He helped him a lot and taught him a lot of things that were not in the books of sages.

Er Gouzi has always respected Yang Tie.

"Brother Zhang, do you know that if a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if a pile is higher than the bank, the current will rush it; if a person is better than others, the crowd will criticize him?"

Yang Tie kindly reminded Er Gouzi not to be too prominent, which would easily bring him trouble.

"This... I have seen it in the books of sages, but this time I really have a hard time."

Er Gouzi really had a hard time this time. The supplies he had stolen before were all upgraded after being put into the gourd.

There was no way to find so much ordinary food and marching pills on his body, unless he went to steal another warehouse.

And this time he was away for too long, if he brought some garbage to hand it in, it would be a bit unreasonable.
