Chapter 161 The old poisonous creature takes action

"Are you talking about the woman surnamed Mu?"

Mu Nianci was far more beautiful than all the concubines in Baituo Mountain, so Ouyang Ke naturally remembered her clearly.

"She's just the daughter of a country bumpkin. Her martial arts skills are so poor that she can't even defeat Wanyan Kang. Did you hear wrongly?"

"I didn't believe it at first, but the wounded soldier kept saying that she was a master of military tactics, using all sorts of snake and tiger formations to defeat the two princes."

Liang Ziweng himself was puzzled and had to repeat the information he had obtained.

"Snake formation?" Master Lingzhi asked in confusion, "How come they've also learned how to drive away snakes?"

"If you don't understand, shut up and don't make trouble!"

Ouyang Feng glared at him, frightening him so much that he shrank his neck and dared not say anything more.

"Shenxian, according to what you just said, that boy captured both princes alive by himself?"

"That's exactly what the wounded soldier said, but I think it's a bit exaggerated."

"This brat should not be underestimated. Back in Yuezhou, his Kung Fu was already as good as mine. Now I'm afraid he will be even more difficult to deal with."

He and Qiu Qianren had joined forces to fight Gu Ping'an, but they only ended up in a draw.

Later on Xuanyuan Terrace, he was forced to flee in panic and was even hit by a poison needle.

The needle was extremely poisonous. If he wasn't an expert in using poisons, he would have lost his life.

The old poisonous creature had already saved some face by saying this, but in fact he had already admitted in his heart that he was defeated.

"No, if we let them continue to mess around, even if they don't actively cause trouble, our current position will be in jeopardy. In my opinion, we must not keep this boy!"

Ouyang Feng frowned, his expression cold and stern.

"Not bad!"

Master Lingzhi nodded heavily.

"If he hadn't ruined our plans so many times, we would have returned to the palace long ago, with servants waiting on us every day. Why would we have to live in this barren desert?"

Although Temujin treated them with courtesy, he was not as generous as Wanyan Honglie; and the yurt in the snow and ice was no match for the comfort of the royal palace rooms.

Liang Ziweng said, "If that guy is really as powerful as Mr. Ouyang said, I'm afraid he will be difficult to deal with."

Master Lingzhi said nonchalantly, "We have Mr. Ouyang's snake formation. Thousands and tens of thousands of poisonous snakes are rushing towards him. Are we still afraid that he won't die?"

Since Ouyang Feng came to the desert, he finally got the chance to re-form the snake formation.

"Idiot, don't you know that snakes hibernate?"

The longer Liang Ziweng spent with Master Lingzhi, the more he felt that he was stupid, and he felt disgusted with him no matter how he looked at him.

"I've been dealing with snakes all my life, so I'm not completely incapable of driving them away in winter. It's just that those two guys don't seem to be afraid of snake venom."

As soon as he said this, Liang Ziweng thought of his precious blood of the spirit snake and gritted his teeth.

"That little bastard Guo Jing drank my snake blood. This time I'm going to suck him dry!"

After some discussion, they finally came up with a plan, but it was already dawn.

Gu Ping'an certainly didn't know how many people had been plotting against him overnight, but he was not completely defenseless.

That night, Genghis Khan sent someone to invite Gu Ping'an and Guo Jing to his tent for a banquet.

"Where's Ronger?"

Seeing Guo Jing coming alone, Mu Nianci couldn't help but ask curiously.

Guo Jing sighed and said, "The people sent by the Great Khan specifically told me to go alone. I didn't want to go, but Rong'er got so angry that no amount of persuasion would work."

"Then you two should go," Mu Nianci shook her head and smiled, "I'll go accompany her."

Guo Jing was still a little embarrassed, but he listened to Gu Ping'an speak.

"Nianci is right. Old Poison and the others are here too. With Nianci looking after them, they're at least safer."

As he said this, he returned to the tent and took out the Tongxi Dilong Pills he had drawn earlier from his luggage and asked Mu Nianci to carry them with her.

"This is?"

"A treasure for avoiding poison. Even though poisonous snakes hibernate in winter, there's no guarantee that the old poison master won't come up with some other poisonous creatures." Guo Jing's face was filled with admiration: "Brother Gu, you're really thoughtful!"

A table had been set up in the Khan's tent, and a few fat and tender lambs were roasting on the central fire. Hot oil dripped onto the charcoal, making a hissing sound.

Several maids were busy around roasting the lamb, and the yurt was filled with the aroma of roasted meat.

Seeing the two men come in, Temujin waved his hands and greeted them warmly.

There were not many people at the table. Temujin brought his wife Borte, and four princes and a princess named Huazheng sat below him.

"Come, come, today is a family dinner, no need to be formal, just take a seat!"

Temujin glanced behind the two of them and asked in confusion again.

"Why isn't Lady Mu here?"

Gu Ping'an smiled and said, "Nianci and Miss Huang are close friends. It's rare that Brother Guo is not here, so the two of them can have some private conversation."

Upon hearing this, Hua Zheng looked up at Guo Jing, then lowered her head again, making it impossible to see his expression.

Temujin hesitated for a moment, glanced at his wife, and said, "Let's talk about this later. Come, have a drink!"

After a few glasses of wine, the maid brought a silver tray and placed it in front of Temujin.

On the plate was a large, white, oily piece of sheep's tail fat.

Temujin stood up, cut off a piece as thin as a cicada's wing with his curved knife, held it in his hand, and walked to Gu Ping'an.

Gu Ping'an was confused, and when Guo Jing looked up, he couldn't hide his smile.

"Young Master Gu, this is a gift from us Mongols to our most distinguished friend. Please enjoy it."

Taste? Eat? Raw?

Gu Ping'an was shocked for a moment and subconsciously took it in his hand.

Guo Jing suppressed a smile and explained, "Put it on your wrist. Don't chew it, just suck it."

"Directly. Like this?"

Everyone nodded in unison, and Gu Ping'an had no choice but to bite the bullet, raise his wrist to his mouth, and take a deep breath.

"How's it going? How does it taste?"

taste
Gu Ping'an felt like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit. His throat slipped and before he could tell what the taste was, his mouth was empty.

"Another slice?"

Gu Pingan felt the greasiness in his mouth, took a sip of wine, and quickly shook his head: "No need for that."

Everyone clapped and laughed, and Temujin sat down again.

Tuo Lei teased, "Young Master Gu is quite impressive. When Guo Jing'an first tasted it, he vomited on his father."

Guo Jing quickly glared at him and raised his glass to urge him to drink.

Mongolians are good at drinking, and drinking is also the most convenient way to build closer relationships.

Subutai and Chagatai almost got into big trouble yesterday. Although they were scolded, they both felt lucky.

Although the grudge between the two brothers remained, they both came to toast Gu Ping'an and the other man and expressed their sincere gratitude.

After three rounds of drinking, Temujin put down the ox horn cup and spoke again.

"Jing'er, what is your relationship with Miss Huang?"

Guo Jing was stunned when he heard this, subconsciously glanced at Hua Zheng, and spoke in a deep voice.

"Rong'er is the person Guo Jing loves most in his life."

"What a beloved one." Temujin's expression suddenly turned cold. "Then what about my daughter?"

Guo Jing took a deep breath, and his expression was no longer panicked.

"I've already said it before, I've always treated Hua Zheng as my own sister."
