Speaking of this, he glanced at Wei Ziyao. "I heard that you organized the rescue and sent people to register all the people who were rescued. You even saved some of the enemy soldiers who were still alive?"
"That's right. What's wrong?" He was a general, so it was normal for him to ask these questions. Wei Ziyao answered truthfully.
"Nothing. I just wanted to see if the statistics were complete."
As he said this, Wei Ziyao handed him a book. "Everyone is in here. Those who are alive are all locked up in the prison cells. A small portion of the injured are still receiving treatment. The rest of the dead have been burned."
"Burned? Is there a count of the people who were burned? "Qi Xiaoze asked.
"I only counted the number of people. I don't know the details. What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Qi Xiaoze shook his head. "Do you know any of these injured or burned bodies?"
"I'm not sure if there are any alive ones. I didn't confirm the burned ones one by one. I don't know if there are any."
"I see." He looked down as if he was thinking about something. Then, he stood up.
"It's nothing. I'm just asking so that I can have an idea. I'll take this book back and have someone send it to you later."
With that, he took the book and was about to leave.
Just as he was about to leave, Wei Ziyao called out to him.
"Senior Apprentice Brother."
"Hmm?" Qi Xiaoze turned around. He seemed a little happy because Wei Ziyao hadn't called him for a long time.
Unexpectedly, her next sentence was, "Previously, the four of us were in the forest. There was you and Wang Sheng. There was another general who didn't talk much. Why didn't we meet again?"
After asking this, Wei Ziyao clearly saw Qi Xiaoze's pupils dilate for a moment.
However, it was only for a moment. She didn't catch it very clearly. He lowered his eyes sadly.
"He … sacrificed himself in the war."
"Sacrificed?" Wei Ziyao couldn't believe it.
"That's right. You should have heard that on the day we entered this city, we were attacked by Ziyuan. Many people died at that time, including him."
"Is that so … My condolences, senior apprentice-brother."
The reason why Wei Ziyao asked him was because she suspected that he was the one who brought the Gu worm into Lei City.
It was too much of a coincidence.
At that time, he did not suspect Qi Xiaoze, so he did not seriously observe the general. Now that he thought about it, there were some suspicious points.
But that person had died so coincidentally.
"My condolences …" Qi Xiaoze said these two words in a self-deprecating manner. "As the leader of an army, this day will come sooner or later. I can't say that I've become indifferent to life and death. I can only say that I'm used to fighting alone. Pfft …"
Before Qi Xiaoze could finish his words, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, Wei Ziyao hurried forward to support him and check his pulse. His condition was not very good.
"You still have to lead the troops into battle. You must not lose your composure." This time, it was not because of the poison. Instead, it was because he was mentally and physically exhausted. In addition, he had suffered a huge blow.
Just as Wei Ziyao was about to say something else, Qi Xiaoze's legs gave out, and he collapsed on top of her. Wei Ziyao caught him instinctively, and the two of them seemed to be hugging.
At this moment, Ki Chien-chul walked in from outside.
Seeing how intimate the two of them were, he instantly felt that his breathing was not smooth. His Gu poison … was acting up.
Wei Ziyao could tell at a glance that the Gu poison was acting up, but she was still holding it in.
This was because she had said that he could not tell anyone that he was poisoned.
Hence, he could only hold it in. "What's wrong with Second Brother?" he asked.
"His heart is damaged. I'll hand him over to Sanger. I'll have Sanger transfer some inner force to him and heal him."
Wei Ziyao did not dare to heal him now, in case something happened in her backyard.
