Chapter 139 Nameless Money
Unnamed money?
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the people around him looked at him with some confusion.
Clearly, none of them knew what anonymous money was.
Lie Yunhu scratched his head, then said as if remembering something, "I almost forgot. The military commander gave it to me before I came and told me to take care of it."
As he spoke, Lie Yunhu got out of bed and walked to his military uniform. He took out an ancient bronze coin from the inner pocket of his uniform.
Unlike ordinary ancient coins, it has no patterns or characters on it, and is round on the outside and square on the inside, so it doesn't look special.
Lie Yunhu handed the coins to Ye Chen and said, "You mean this?"
Ye Chen took the coin, weighed it in his hand, and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's it."
Upon hearing this, Lie Yunhu said, "That's good. If I had known this thing had this effect, I would have asked the military commander for two more to save our lives."
Ye Chen smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, "You're overthinking it. The nameless money of my Five Famous Mountains isn't so easy to take. Back then, my master was traveling in the Dragon Kingdom when he encountered an accident and was stranded abroad."
"Although the military commander had not yet achieved what he has now, he saved my master's life, which is why I have these three nameless coins."
"Currently, there are only ten unnamed coins in the Dragon Kingdom. If you take back the one you have, you will still have nine left."
"You should know that with this nameless coin, no matter who you are or what you need, you can go to Nameless Mountain. Nameless Mountain will not refuse any request that it can do."
"Nameless money, money earned by risking one's life, this is not just a saying."
Ye Chen's words shocked everyone around him, and Lie Yunhu also realized the value of the nameless coin.
Doctor Hu stared at the nameless coin in Ye Chen's hand, his heart filled with surprise. He hadn't expected that such a small coin could have such a great effect.
Rumors circulate that a dozen or so ancient immortals live on the nameless mountain, all possessing extraordinary abilities.
It's simply unbelievable that such a small, nameless coin could make a request to an nameless mountain.
Lie Yunhu clicked his tongue and said, "I never expected that the commander of the Nameless Mountain and River Army would have such a connection."
It should be noted that the military commander is the highest-ranking military commander in the Dragon Kingdom. He is arguably the most powerful person besides the head of state, truly second only to the emperor.
Ye Chen remained calm, carefully putting away the nameless coin and saying, "Alright, this nameless coin will save your life. I'll protect your life for the next five days in Wu City. However, if you leave Wu City, I won't be responsible for you."
"And you only have five days. After that, you're on your own."
Just as Ye Chen finished speaking, a disdainful voice suddenly came from the doorway.
"You brat, how dare you speak so arrogantly here."
“What kind of person is the Crimson Gold War God? Why would he need a junior like you who hasn’t even grown his hair yet to protect him? If word gets out, people will laugh their heads off.”
Upon hearing this voice, Lie Yunhu frowned, while Ye Chen looked towards the doorway.
Doctor Hu and the others also looked towards the doorway.
The sound of orderly footsteps grew louder as they approached, and soon a general in uniform led two squads of fully armed soldiers slowly toward them.
The insignia on their chests was different from that of the Crimson Gold Army; instead, it was a blazing fire.
After the leading general entered the room, he stood at attention and saluted Lie Yunhu, saying, "Wang Polu, Deputy Chief of the Li Huo Army, greets Commander Hu!"
The two teams of soldiers behind them also stood at attention and saluted at the same time, their eyes gleaming with fighting spirit.
"The Fire Li Huo Army and the Fire Li Huo Leopard Guard greet the Crimson Gold War God."
Lie Yunhu frowned as he looked at Wang Polu and the two squads of soldiers behind him and said, "Aren't you Li Huo Army supposed to be in the south? Why did you suddenly come here?"
Seeing this formation, the Crimson Gold Guards immediately stood behind Lie Yunhu, their chests puffed out high, their imposing manner no less than that of the Li Huo Leopard Guards.
The combined aura of the two elite forces clashed in mid-air, instantly making the atmosphere extremely tense.
"Reporting to Tiger Commander, our Fire Commander heard that Tiger Commander was injured and is so upset that he can't eat or sleep."
"Moreover, the situation in the north is stable, so the Fire Commander sent us to check on you. If needed, our Fire Army can also head north to provide support."
Upon hearing Wang Polu's words, Lie Yunhu sneered and said, "Thank you for your concern, Marshal Huo. Now that you've seen it, I'm fine, so you don't need to worry about me. Just let him focus on managing his southern territory."
Wang Polu immediately said, "Commander Huo also said that he was worried that some villains might plot against Commander Hu, so he specifically asked me to stay by Commander Hu's side and take care of him."
Lie Yunhu said, "Hehe, your Huo Shuai really cares about me, but I don't need it."
Ye Chen realized at this moment that Huo Shuai and Lie Yunhu probably had a grudge. He wasn't there to protect them, but rather to monitor Lie Yunhu.
What do you mean by rushing north to provide reinforcements? I'm afraid they just want to take over Lie Yunhu's military power as soon as he's dead. That sounds nice, but it's really just empty talk.
"The Five Armies Tournament will begin in a month. You're coming here to curry favor now. Do you expect me to go easy on your Li Huo Army?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Polu immediately said, "Tiger Commander, you are underestimating us. We, Fire Commander, are just worried about your safety."
"He also specifically instructed us to escort you back to Kyoto, and to fully cooperate with you to help Tiger General recover as soon as possible."
Listening to Wang Polu's bureaucratic jargon, Lie Yunhu said impatiently, "Alright, I appreciate your Fire Commander's good intentions, but he doesn't need to worry about the affairs of our Crimson Gold Army."
"As for my injuries, they have already been healed by this divine physician Ye, so there is no need for you, Marshal Huo, to worry about them."
"I will personally thank Marshal Huo for his enthusiasm at the Five Armies Tournament a month from now."
When Wang Polu heard Lie Yunhu say that he was cured, his face fell, especially when he looked at Ye Chen, who was being pointed at by Lie Yunhu. His expression was even more incredulous, as they had inquired about Lie Yunhu's condition beforehand.
That strange poison is something the entire military region's general hospital has no solution for in the short term. This young man in front of me looks to be only in his early twenties. How could he have such ability?
"Tiger General, even if you're making up a lie, at least make one that people can believe. How could such a young child be a miracle doctor, let alone cure the poison in your body?"
In Wang Polu's view, Lie Yunhu was just putting on a brave face right now in order not to reveal any weaknesses in front of them.
Upon hearing Wang Polu's words, Lie Yunhu's face turned cold, and his surging aura instantly erupted.
"Are you questioning me?"
Faced with the sudden burst of power from Lie Yunhu, Wang Polu was startled and quickly lowered his head, saying, "This humble servant dares not."
"However, the health of the Tiger General is related to the war situation in the north, and also involves the situation in the south. It can be said that moving one part affects the whole situation, so we must be careful. We should go back to the capital for a thorough check-up."
As he spoke, Wang Polu looked at Ye Chen and said, "This man's origins are unknown, and he is not even thirty years old. If he can cure your body, don't say I can't, I'm afraid no one would believe it if I told them."
"Could it be that all the renowned doctors and experts at my Kyoto Military General Hospital are combined, yet their medical skills are inferior to this young upstart?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen curled his lip and said, "Don't compare me to that bunch of trash, that's an insult to me."
"Furthermore, you have no right to question my medical skills. Even if your Fire Commander, Mu Qinghuo, were to come, he would still have no right to question my medical skills."
Upon hearing this, Wang Polu flew into a rage and said, "You ignorant brat, how dare you address the Fire Commander by his name! This is utterly disrespectful!"
At the same time, the Fire Leopard Guards behind him also glared angrily at Ye Chen. They knew that the Fire Commander was their faith and god, and they would not tolerate any disrespect from others.
Ye Chen said calmly, "Go ask Mu Qinghuo, and see if he dares to talk to me like that."
“Three years ago, he was ambushed and killed, his life hanging by a thread. If it weren’t for the leader’s intervention and the military commander’s plea, which sent him to an unnamed mountain, and my intervention out of respect for my master, he would be a corpse now.”
"Don't even mention a mere deputy chief like you. Even if Marshal Huo came, he would have to respectfully salute and greet me."
Hearing Ye Chen dare to spout such arrogant words, even saying that Huo Shuai would salute and greet him when he arrived, he was shocked.
Wang Polu and the Li Huo Leopard Guards were all furious, and they didn't believe a single word Ye Chen said.
"You little brat, you're asking for death! How dare you insult our Fire Commander! Today, even Tiger Commander can't protect you."
As he spoke, Wang Polu unleashed his power and threw a punch straight at Ye Chen's face.
