“Then, Vice General Yin, do you still want to continue searching the soldiers ‘luggage?” asked General Song with a smile.

Vice General Yin clapped his hands and stopped smiling. He said seriously, “We’ll search! If they didn’t find that thing, what if those poisonous creatures continued to come? Old Song, you can go back first. I’ll arrange for someone to search.’

“Alright then. You can go ahead with your work. I won’t disturb you any longer,” said General Song with a smile.

Deputy General Yin first sent a team of people to search the soldiers’ luggage. If they found anything wrong, they would take it out.

Then, he remembered what Grain Officer Wu had said this morning. He thought about it and decided to take a detour to find the military doctor.

“General Yin, why are you here?” the military doctor Wei asked curiously. “l heard that you were looking for something today. You went through the rations and the soldiers ‘luggage, but you were very busy. However, I have to make it clear in advance that you can’t touch these things without my permission.”

Vice General Yin laughed. “l did come for this, but not to search. Do you know what I’m looking for?”

“What are you looking for?” Military Doctor Wei shook his head and asked.

“I’m looking for the thing that attracted those poisonous creatures!” Vice General Yin said mysteriously.

Military Doctor Wei was surprised for a moment and asked, “Are you saying that those poisonous creatures were attracted by something? They didn’t come attack us on their own?”

Although military doctors were not respected in times of peace, they had always had a high status in the army, so they were protected whenever danger came.

Therefore, when the poisonous creatures arrived this morning, Military Doctor Wei only took a few glances at them. He did not observe them carefully and did not find anything wrong.

Vice General Yin nodded. “It’s about right. I’ve passed through this miasma forest before, but I’ve never encountered so many poisonous creatures. Today is really unusual. So I came to you to ask if there’s anything that can attract those animals? For example, some kind of medicine.”

Military Doctor Wei pondered for a while before saying, “I’m not very sure. I’ve only heard of it by chance. There’s a secret medicine in the southern border.

The tribe uses secret medicine to hunt. First, they make a trap in the forest. Then, they put the secret medicine on it to attract all the animals into the trap. This way, they can kill the prey with less effort.”

Vice General Yin’s eyes lit up and he said in surprise, “What kind of medicine is that? How do I normally use it?”

Military Doctor Wei shook his head and said, “l don’t know either. I heard from a traveling doctor that the herbs used to refine that medicine are extremely rare, so it’s not widely used in hunting. Only a few large tribes have that medicine, and it’s passed down like a family heirloom. Unless there’s a major disaster that makes hunting difficult, that secret medicine is rarely taken out. Therefore, I feel that the thing that attracted those poisonous things shouldn’t be that kind of secret medicine. This secret medicine is extremely valuable, and no tribe will easily give it to others.”

When he heard that Military Doctor Wei did not know what the secret medicine was, Vice General Yin was disappointed for a moment. However, he did not comment on what the military doctor said after that. Just because he would not easily give it to others did not mean that he would not use it. As long as the benefits were enough, anything was possible.

“Alright, I’ll look for it again. You don’t mind me looking for you, right?”

Military Doctor Wei shook his head. “Tell me where you’re going to search. I’m afraid you’ll damage my place..”
