Chapter 288: I’ll be right here waiting for you.
Chapter 288
Mo Jiuye didn\'t know what his wife was going to do, but he obediently listened and didn\'t move.
He Zhiran purchased a top-of-the-line bulletproof vest on Taobao Online Mall.
"Wear this," she said.
Mo Jiuye looked at the strange garment in front of him and asked, "Why?" Although he asked, he still obediently put on the bulletproof vest.
"This is called a bulletproof vest. You can say it\'s knife and gun proof," He Zhiran explained quickly.
Mo Jiuye had never heard of such a wonderful thing before.
However, now was not the time for him to be too curious. After putting on the bulletproof vest, He Zhiran also hung a bag full of grenades on him.
Naturally, there was no need to explain in detail how to use the grenades. When Mo Jiuye had nothing to do in his personal space, he would often study them. Although he had never actually used them before, he knew how to use them by heart.
Feeling the heavy sensation on his body, Mo Jiuye felt a warmth in his heart. He instructed He Zhiran again before taking the Southern Frontier Emperor\'s corpse and leaving.
He Zhiran watched his figure run away quickly, and said softly:
"Be sure to stay safe. I\'ll be waiting right here for you to come back."
Mo Jiuye carried the Southern Frontier Emperor\'s corpse, used his lightness skill to leap over the heads of those Southern Frontier soldiers, and landed on the highest point at the pass.
He quickly hung the head there, and randomly threw the body below.
Mo Jiuye\'s series of actions would inevitably attract the attention of the Southern Frontier soldiers.
He had just thrown the corpse on the ground when someone pointed to the top and shouted, "There\'s a spy up there!"
The soldiers swarmed up, arrows aimed at Mo Jiuye.
Outnumbered, Mo Jiuye had no intention of lingering in battle. He threw a grenade towards the area with the most people.
With a loud boom, the Southern Frontier soldiers were blown high into the air.
At the same time, a deep large pit was blasted into the ground.
The soldiers who continued to chase Mo Jiuye didn\'t react in time, and many of them fell into the deep pit.
Mo Jiuye took advantage of the chaos to use his lightness skill and ran towards He Zhiran.
The Southern Frontier had a large number of soldiers. After some of them reacted, they chased after him again.
Mo Jiuye threw out two more grenades, blowing those soldiers away.
With just three grenades, the Southern Frontier had already suffered heavy losses. The surviving soldiers were frightened and didn\'t dare to recklessly give chase. They could only keep shooting arrows in his direction.
Arrows rained down towards Mo Jiuye. Even with his agile figure, he couldn\'t completely avoid so many arrows.
He was careless for a moment, and two arrows fell on his shoulder and back.
Mo Jiuye knew that this injury was inevitable, but the location was still good, and it wasn\'t fatal.
However, the expected pain did not come. Mo Jiuye glanced back at his shoulder, where his outer garment was already damaged, but there was no arrow piercing it like before.
He moved his arm, and it was still flexible without any sign of injury.
He curiously touched his back again. Similarly, he could feel his clothes were ripped but there was no arrow stuck in it, nor was there any pain.
Mo Jiuye suddenly realized that this must be due to the effect of the garment his wife gave him.
No wonder she told him to wear that piece of clothing before leaving. It really could save lives.
Accompanied by cries of grief, Mo Jiuye easily escaped from the pass.
Seeing the flames and smoke rising into the sky in the direction of the pass, He Zhiran knew that Mo Jiuye had successfully hung up the Southern Frontier Emperor\'s head.
Now that she didn\'t see him coming back, her heart was in her throat.
He Zhiran could confirm that in her two lifetimes, this was the first time she felt such nervous emotions.
She subconsciously looked at her still flat belly and murmured softly, "Baby, pray with Mommy for your Daddy to come home safely."
Fortunately, as soon as she finished speaking, a tall figure appeared before her.
"Ranran, were you very anxious waiting for me?"
Seeing him come back, He Zhiran took the initiative to throw herself into his arms for the first time.
"Not anxious. As long as you\'re safe, that\'s good enough."
Now she had one more feeling - how anxiously the sisters-in-law waited at home when the Mo Family Men went to battle in the past.
Mo Jiuye could feel her tension. He held her in his arms and comforted, "Don\'t worry, I\'ll be fine."
He Zhiran felt the familiar warmth and her reason did not disappear.
"We can\'t stay here long. Let\'s leave quickly."
"Okay," Mo Jiuye agreed and carried He Zhiran towards Da Shun.
Entering Da Shun\'s territory, this place was more familiar to Mo Jiuye than anywhere else.
When he led troops to garrison here for many years, he had memorized the terrain extremely clearly. Therefore, he didn\'t need to exert any effort to smoothly leave the border.
At this time, the eastern sky was already brightening. He Zhiran felt it was about time and quickly took out the carriage from her personal space.
Mo\'s brothers woke up to find it was already bright outside, and they could also feel the swaying of the carriage as it moved.
The slit in the broken carriage let in a ray of light.
When Mo Jinnian woke up from this nap, he felt his dizzy problem was instantly cured.
He knocked on the carriage door, "Ninth brother, where are we? Have we encountered any danger?"
"Sixth brother, we\'ve already entered Da Shun\'s territory. Everything is going very smoothly," Mo Jiuye\'s reply could be described as understated.
"You said we\'ve already entered Da Shun?" The sixth brother was clearly very surprised.
With the current tense situation in the Southern Frontier, how did the ninth brother and his wife manage to get out smoothly?
The more Mo Jinnian thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
"Ninth brother, how did you manage to return to Da Shun without making any noise at all?"
The fourth and seventh brothers were also curious and wanted to hear the ninth brother\'s explanation.
At this time, Mo Jiuye had already stopped the carriage at the roadside and opened the carriage door.
His explanation was a bit far-fetched. After all, it was impossible to make this kind of thing sound reasonable.
"Last night the Southern Frontier Emperor was killed. His head was hung at the highest point at the pass. The Southern Frontier army camp was thrown into chaos, so I took the opportunity to escape."
As the carriage door opened, the sixth brother jumped out.
He didn\'t expect such a big thing to happen in the Southern Frontier.
If Mo Jinnian didn\'t know that the ninth brother had been on his way to Da Shun, he would have suspected that he did it.
"I don\'t know which righteous hero did this, but it\'s extremely gratifying."
The reason why the Mo Family Men kept rushing onto the battlefield was all thanks to this Southern Frontier Emperor.
If it wasn\'t for him repeatedly launching wars, they could have spent more time together in the capital.
Moreover, because of one battle after another, they faced the pain of losing loved ones and comrades countless times. Although the ninth brother had found so many brothers back, Mo Jinnian still hated the Southern Frontier Emperor.
Although the Southern Frontier Emperor’s death was gratifying, Mo Jinnian still couldn\'t believe the reason given by the ninth brother.
"Ninth brother, I\'m a light sleeper. Even if the Southern Frontier army camp was thrown into chaos, it’s impossible there wouldn’t be any noise at all."
Just as Mo Jiuye was thinking about how to explain, He Zhiran also released the other two from the carriage. She hurried over to explain.
"Sixth brother doesn\'t know that the needles I gave you have a sleeping aid effect. It\'s not surprising you didn\'t hear any sounds at all."
"So that\'s how it is. Ninth brother\'s wife\'s medical skills are truly amazing. I woke up today feeling my body was very relaxed and my dizzy problem was cured."
Now, Mo Jinnian believed it.
Recalling when the ninth brother\'s wife gave him acupuncture, he did feel sleepy.
No wonder he didn\'t hear the big commotion outside.
