The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards

Chapter 157: A Prodigy

Guo Jing's mind was in a mess, but after hearing Tuo Lei mention this matter, he was able to sort out his thoughts a little.

Dear sister.
When these words were spoken, Hua Zheng was struck by lightning, tears fell silently, she shook off her fox fur coat, turned over and mounted her horse.

The whip was whipped hard, and the horse let out a long neigh, kicked off its four hooves, and galloped wildly into the distance.

"you!"

Tuo Lei glared at Guo Jing fiercely, and worried that something might happen to his sister, he had to quickly mount his horse and whip it to chase after him.

The remaining cavalrymen who came to meet them looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Gu Ping'an had already guessed this situation. He sighed and advised, "With Tolui here, Hua Zheng will be safe. Let's go see Temujin first."

Guo Jing nodded and tried to pull Huang Rong, but she waved her sleeve away.

Although he stood firmly on her side today, they had been together for more than half a year, but he never dared to talk about the engagement in detail, nor did he find the opportunity to do so.

Huang Rong was caught off guard and suddenly saw her childhood sweetheart "rival". It would be strange if she didn't feel jealous.

Now, after this "reminiscing about the past", Hero Guo found himself in a difficult position.

Everyone mounted their horses and rode slowly towards the big tent. Mu Nianci looked at the bewildered Guo Jing, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes. She turned her horse towards Huang Rong and comforted her softly.

It was as warm as spring in the Khan's tent. Temujin sat upright on the golden chair. The three princes besides Tolui stood on both sides. Ouyang Feng, Liang Ziweng and others were also there.

This golden chair was taken by the Mongolian army when they conquered the capital of the Jin Dynasty. It was originally the throne of the Jin emperor.

There is a dragon fighting for a pearl cast on the back of the chair, and a tiger carved on each of the two handles, which makes Temujin look more majestic.

The four of them followed the guards and walked slowly inside, but Ouyang Feng and the others remained expressionless, as if they didn't recognize them.

Temujin was slightly stunned when he didn't see Tolui coming back. The guard leading the team came forward and whispered the situation.

Fortunately, he didn't speak Chinese. He only knew that Hua Zheng was angry and left, and Tuo Lei was worried so he chased after her.

"Come on, Jing'er, after not seeing you for a year, have you grown taller?"

Temujin didn't think much of it, thinking it was just a quarrel between the couple, and waved to Guo Jing with a smile.

Guo Jing was a very honest person. Seeing that the Khan was not angry but treated him like his own son or nephew as before, he felt even more guilty for a moment.

Gu Ping'an noticed his change in mood and couldn't help but sigh that Temujin was very good at managing his subordinates, and he was worthy of being the famous Genghis Khan.

"Sweat!"

Guo Jing shouted, stepped forward and knelt in greeting.

Temujin showed a look of joy and raised his hand to support him, indicating that he should stand up.

"You've come just in time. I've always kept you in mind. I heard Wanyan Honglie hasn't appeared in a while. Could it be that you've already completed my original instructions?"

Guo Jing smiled shyly and nodded, "Thank goodness I have fulfilled my mission. It's a pity we have buried him in Jiangnan and were unable to bring his head here."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ouyang Feng and the others in the tent looked at each other, their expressions changing slightly.

Although they had a vague guess that their old master was in danger, they still felt touched after hearing what Guo Jing said in person.

"Haha! Good boy!"

Temujin naturally didn't know what they were thinking. He was greatly relieved to hear that his powerful enemy had died.

"This is a reward, Jing'er, if you want anything, just ask."

Guo Jing felt that he was a mean-spirited person for secretly taking his mother away from the desert, and out of guilt, he was unwilling to ask for his reward.

What's more, he was just an assistant in the killing of Wanyan Honglie.

"Great Khan, this is almost entirely Brother Gu's achievement. Guo Jing dare not take credit for it, let alone accept the reward."

As he spoke, he introduced Gu Ping'an and Mu Nianci to Temujin.

"This is Brother Gu Ping'an, and next to him is his wife, also a heroic female warrior with extraordinary martial arts skills." Gu Ping'an had no habit of kneeling to others, so he just followed the etiquette of the martial arts world and bowed to Temujin with his fists clasped.

Temujin did not take it as an offense and smiled and praised him as a young hero.

Among the generals, Mu Huali pondered for a moment and asked, "Could it be that you are the 'Hero of Peace' who single-handedly slaughtered all 462 members of the Yellow River Gang?"

The Yellow River Gang is Sha Tongtian's subordinate. Liang Ziweng and Master Lingzhi in the crowd are also old acquaintances of him. They were all shocked when they heard the words.

"It's not just one person's strength," Gu Pingan smiled calmly, "If it weren't for Nianci's help, I wouldn't be able to kill so many by myself."

It was the first time that Temujin had heard of someone so powerful, and he was shocked.

There were many warriors in the Mongol desert, but they could only defeat ten men at most, and since ancient times, only a few could defeat a hundred men.

Not to mention five hundred living people, even killing five hundred sheep is impossible.

This young man looks gentle and simple, but he is so brave!

As for Mu Nianci, a delicate little girl, she was naturally treated as a pendant.

"Mr. Ouyang, this..." Temujin couldn't help but turn his head to look at Ouyang Feng.

Ouyang Feng was good at using poison, and he had a powerful weapon like the Snake Formation, so he naturally thought that Gu Ping'an also used similar methods.

"They are just a bunch of rabble. It's not difficult to kill them."

The old poisonous creature still had that unpleasant voice, clanging like metal friction, very harsh.

"Okay! Okay!"

Temujin clapped his hands and laughed, his eyes full of admiration.

"Being able to invite a young talent like Young Master Gu, Jing'er has done a great deed and deserves a great reward!"

Guo Jing had no choice but to refuse again.

After hesitating for a long time, they finally got down to business and talked about the plan to attack the Jin Dynasty.

Mu Huali was the main general of the Southern Expedition and took the lead in making suggestions.

"Jin's elite troops held Pingyang Prefecture firmly, and the city changed hands several times, making it difficult for the army to advance into the heart of the Central Plains. Subutai stationed his troops on the former Western Xia border, intending to seize Fengxiang Prefecture through a scheme, but unfortunately, his plan was unsuccessful."

As he spoke, he unconsciously glanced at Guo Jing. It was obvious that he had made plans to attack Song in advance, and now he was thinking of an excuse at the last minute, feeling a little guilty.

Guo Jing had also listened to Mu Nianci's analysis of the key location of Fengxiang Mansion, and now when Mu Huali mentioned it again, he was finally not easily deceived.

"If the plan fails, then we'll just have to attack with force."

Temujin slapped the tiger-head armrest without hesitation.

"Subutai is short of troops and needs reinforcements. Who will go?"

"Father, I'm going!"

Jochi stepped out from the crowd and knelt on one knee. As Temujin's eldest son, he was the first to volunteer.

Before Temujin could speak, another general spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Jochi is brave but not wise. He has a hard time dealing with the small Naiman tribe. If he is allowed to go, who knows how many warriors will be lost."

The speaker was Chagatai, the second son of Temujin. The two had always been at loggerheads with each other. Now that the opportunity to make a great contribution was right in front of them, how could they give it up?

Subuchi glared at him fiercely and said sarcastically, "You, Chagatai, have always been following others' footsteps to gain credit. You want to be the commander-in-chief? Aren't you afraid of breaking your teeth?"

"That's better than you, a Merkit bastard!"

These words hit the nail on the head. How could he bear it?

With his blood boiling, he pounced on Chagatai, grabbed the collar of his shirt, and threw a heavy punch at him.
