Chapter 3275: Sending Warmth

The initial stage of amputation is the most painful and difficult to endure.

For many years he had been a perfectly healthy person, and suddenly losing some limbs naturally dealt a heavy psychological blow.

Wu Shuhang was no different.

For someone like him, the hardest part is psychologically accepting his own disability, and only then can he overcome and compensate for it physically; he often goes through a period of listlessness.

Wu Shuhang had always been proud and arrogant, and having become the Grand Commander of the Right Army Governor's Office, he was originally in high spirits, but now suddenly becoming disabled was like having a bucket of ice water poured over him.

Just as he was feeling vexed and sighing helplessly, a knocking sound suddenly came from the door.

He glanced at the time; it had been over an hour since Yuan Chengze left, and he thought Yuan Chengze had already completed his task and returned, so he quickly said: "Come in, the door isn't locked."

The door was gently pushed open from outside, and Wu Shuhang immediately said: "Did you buy it? Let me try it."

Wu Shuhang held no hope that anything of value could be bought in Casablanca; he merely wanted to buy something to respond, so as not to arouse suspicion, and thus did not find it unusual that Yuan Chengze returned so quickly.

But she did not expect that when the door was pushed open, the man who slipped in was not Yuan Chengze, but a stranger who looked much younger than Yuan Chengze and wore a mask.

Wu Shuhang exclaimed in shock: "Who are you? How did you get in?!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Grand Commander Wu, there's no need to be so nervous; I'm not here to target you, and moreover, the security here is as nothing to me—I can come and go whenever I wish."

Wu Shutong heard the other party address him as Grand Commander Wu and immediately became alert, asking: "You... you know me?"

Ye Chen smiled and said: "I've only heard of your name before; today is the first time I've seen you in person."

Speaking, Ye Chen's voice instantly turned cold as he said: "Grand Commander, if you obediently cooperate with me, without shouting or trying to leak information to anyone, I will not make things difficult for you; on the contrary, I have prepared a great gift for you, which I hope you will accept with a smile."

Wu Shuhang looked at Ye Chen and asked warily: "Is it you who did the Duke Mining affair?!"

Ye Chen said with a calm face: "That's right, it was me; I suppose the Grand Commander should already have taken the sword of Song Ruyu?"

Wu Shuhang looked at Ye Chen somewhat nervously and asked: "Did you come here to kill me?"

Ye Chen waved his hand: "I just said I prepared a great gift for you, and I specially brought it over."

Speaking, he glanced at Wu Shuhang's empty left sleeve, smiling and asking: "Grand Commander, your left hand seems to have some problem—how so? Was it cut off by someone sent by Wu Feiyan?"

Wu Shuhang's heart was in turmoil, and he couldn't help but ask Ye Chen: "How... how do you know?"

Ye Chen smiled: "I've been keeping an eye on Morocco and Nigeria; any stirrings there usually can't escape my surveillance."

Speaking, Ye Chen then asked: "Grand Commander, how did you lose this left hand? Could it be due to the failure of Duke Mining?"

Wu Shuhang couldn't fathom why Ye Chen had suddenly appeared here, so he asked him: "What exactly do you want to do by coming here?"

Ye Chen smiled: "I came today simply to catch a glimpse of the Grand Commander's bearing; I didn't expect the Grand Commander to have become disabled, and without a left hand, I imagine it must be quite hard for you."

Wu Shuhang felt uneasy but maintained a composed facade as he said: "Sir, if you have something to say, just get to the point."

Ye Chen nodded, sat down opposite him, and smiled: "To be frank, I came today to bring you warmth."

Speaking, he produced a Remolding Pill and said lightly: "Grand Commander, please look at this pill; it is called the Remolding Pill, meaning, as the name suggests, to reforge the golden body—let alone you missing only a left hand, even if you were now chopped into a human swine, as long as you take this pill, your limbs will grow back smoothly."

"Remolding Pill?!"

Wu Shuhang stared at the pill with eyes wide open.

He had just been thinking that if he wanted to return to being a truly normal person, the only way was to obtain a Remolding Pill.

Aside from this, there was almost no second possibility.

But he had previously been very pessimistic about this, after all, such a pill is extremely valuable, and what merit or ability does he have to obtain such a divine medicine?

Afterwards, he looked at Ye Chen with a bitter smile and said: "Sir, please don't mock me here; the Remolding Pill is said to be a lifesaving divine medicine—if you have it, even if beaten down to only a brain, you can fully recover; such a precious pill, I cannot even be sure whether Her Majesty the Ying Lord possesses it, and you casually produce a pill and tell me it's pure—how could I possibly believe that?"

Ye Chen said nothing, but directly threw the pill at him; Wu Shuhang instinctively reached out with both hands to catch it, but at the moment it emerged, he realized he only had his right hand left; he barely managed to catch the pill with his right hand and instinctively examined it.

He could smell the pill's pure medicinal fragrance—at a glance it was not an ordinary product, but whether it was a duplicate or not, he dared not believe in his heart.

Ye Chen then said: "Just swallow the pill directly; it won't take long, and your severed hand will grow back."

Wu Shuhang asked him: "We have never met, and we are enemies; I really cannot understand why you would help me, and moreover, how do I know there is no deceit in this pill?"

Ye Chen mocked: "I can appear here without alarming anyone, and I can take your dog's life anytime; given such a huge disparity in strength, do you think I need to come to your door to deceive you this once?"

Wu Shuhang cautiously asked: "But why are you giving me this pill? Do you want me to betray the Ying Lord?"

Ye Chen smiled: "Rest assured, I give you this pill today without needing you to do anything for me in return; I simply find Wu Feiyan displeasing to the eye, and since he called for your hand, I will make your hand grow back!"

Having said that, Ye Chen ordered: "I give you three seconds to swallow the pill; otherwise, I will take it back—remember, once you pass my village, there will be no more such shop."

Wu Shuhang hesitated and struggled in his heart for a long time, still daring not to try the pill this stranger gave him.

After all, he is a member of the Wu family; he clearly knows the methods by which the Ying Lord controls people—besides using family members as long-term hostages, there is also a family safeguard: planting poison in these people's bodies.

Since he is a Wu family member, he thus avoided the step of taking the poison, so he worries that the pill Ye Chen gave him might be another kind; once he is again controlled by him, any hope of a turnaround in the future would be nothing but the ravings of a fool.

Seeing his fearful expression, Ye Chen felt a bit impatient inside; he then, with extreme speed, strode forward in large steps to Wu Shuhang's front, then with one hand snatched the pill from his right hand, and with the other hand directly pried open her mouth; following that, his right hand, like a slam dunk, forcefully slapped Wu Shuhang's face, directly driving the pill from his mouth into his stomach.

Seeing his flustered state, Ye Chen said lightly: "Don't be so nervous; you're only missing a mere left hand, so the pill will take effect very quickly—just need to wait patiently for five or six minutes, and your left hand will grow back."
