The pork butcher is smoother than a pig butcher!

Chapter 350 A God-given Opportunity
We agreed to give each other a ride.

This delivery took half a month.

We've already left the Iri Valley.

Gan Minglan's emotions have changed from her initial cold and aloof demeanor to her current fiery gaze.

Only after Suzhileg requested the chief to provide 3,000 additional troops for escort did he relax his vigilance.

The sun was shining brightly at noon today.

He brought Gan Minglan a freshly roasted lamb leg, tender and fragrant, straight from the grill.

Gan Minglan had no intention of opposing the food.

Even when angry, they remained very rational.

He eats anything given to him, and his appetite is comparable to that of a man.

Seeing that she was eating with relish, Surilege chatted with her with great interest: "I wonder who else is in Madam Gan's family?"

Have a heart-to-heart talk?

Making friends?

Even mice can send New Year's greetings to cats!
Gan Minglan: "Don't talk while eating!"

The young man didn't feel embarrassed at all. He just watched her show off the whole leg of lamb, bite after bite, and then went on to talk about his own topic.

"Gan Niangzi, I thought we were at least friends. Shouldn't friends be honest with each other?"

What's wrong?
Does he have some misunderstanding about the Chinese language?
Now they are opposing forces, it's a fight to the death.

Gan Minglan was too lazy to argue with this kid, and asked with a frown:

"Friend, tell me honestly first, has the antidote been effective after you've taken it for so many days? Besides, even when saying goodbye to a friend, you don't just see them off for a thousand miles!"

Suzhileg felt a little guilty after being rebuked.

Avoiding the important issues and focusing on the trivial ones is also one of his strengths:

"Hehe, Lady Gan, don't be anxious! Even if we're sure the antidote is safe, we can't let a weak woman like you ride all the way back to Huozhou alone, can we?"
"If we are captured by those nomadic tribes on the way, and your general uses that as an excuse to attack Shache, we will have no way to defend ourselves!"

Gan Minglan: What are you pretending to be? Do you really think your stronghold is so far away and safe that the Bei army can't even get there if they want to?

She bluntly exposed the other party's hypocrisy:

"Don't you have three or four thousand guards? Just send a hundred or eighty men to escort me to Weilumu."

Suzhileg said with righteous indignation:

"No, no, even though the deserts and grasslands here belong to the Khanate, those tribal chiefs don't really obey the king's orders. With so many guards like us, we might not even be able to return to the capital unscathed."

Bullshit.

Which tribe is currently capable of challenging the Kashgar Khanate?

Gan Minglan immediately pretended to be furious.

He said angrily:

"So, you're trying to force me to stay? Aren't you afraid I'll just poison you all and send you all to meet God?"

She naturally has cat-like eyes, and when anger surges, her round eyes appear even more moist and shiny.

Even her face, which was not covered in makeup, was flushed with a rosy glow.

Despite being in a fit of rage, Surileg felt as if the usually emotionless, icy beauty was melting away in the fire.

Absolutely stunning!

His expression was so vivid that even Su Rileg was willing to blink.

Even the smartest and most mature sixteen-year-old boy has never seen such a sight!
Seeing him staring blankly at her, the anger in Gan Minglan's eyes solidified into a tangible form.

Okay.

If an iceberg melted into boiling water, it could scald someone to death.

Surileg could only suppress the strange feeling in his heart, calm himself down, and said in a good-natured manner:
"Granny Gan, please rest assured. Apart from sincerely asking you to take us to Shache, I will not force you to do anything you are unwilling to do."

I believe that given your temperament, you would have had countless opportunities to poison us along the way. The reason you didn't poison us must be because you sensed that we meant you no harm.

Now, I have a highly learned Han Chinese master. His most revered physician was Sun Simiao, the "King of Medicine," whom he admired not only for his superb medical skills but also for his invaluable medical ethics. I still remember the King of Medicine's most famous saying: "Human life is of utmost importance, more precious than a thousand pieces of gold!"

Gan Minglan thought to herself: No wonder he speaks Mandarin so well, and even has a Han Chinese teacher who specializes in teaching Confucianism! Is he trying to use medical ethics to blackmail me?

Unfortunately, I'm not buying it!
Immediately stated:

"The lives of the people of Bei are indeed more precious than gold. But if you were to kidnap the Medicine King and bring him to your capital as a guest under the current circumstances, would he still be so good-natured?"

That's all for now.

How are people supposed to respond?
The meeting ended on bad terms!

After that, Surilege may have genuinely feared that Gan Minglan would poison them.

She kept her far away from activities such as fetching water, hunting, and roasting meat.

Gan Minglan scoffed at this several times.

This made the boy want to get closer to her, but he couldn't quite manage to.

Finally, we had some peace and quiet along the way.

She outwardly displayed a bad temper that seemed ready to explode at any moment, but inwardly she was overjoyed.

The biggest difficulty in the western expedition against the Hu is that we are not familiar with the roads, right?

it's good now!

The collaborators didn't take her, this woman, seriously at all.

They went through cities and canyons without making any attempt to avoid her.

Not right either.

Perhaps these people never considered that she would have a chance to escape after being kidnapped to Shache!
Wow, what a golden opportunity!

Now, on this side...

After returning to Hami City, General Xiong was furious at the Hu people for trying to fool him with more than 10,000 mad horses and for taking him hostage.

Then he made a solemn vow:

"Next year, if you give me another year to prepare and cultivate the land, I will be able to lead my troops to the homeland of the Hu people."

The generals responded enthusiastically.

The morale of the expedition to the west was very high.

After it burns.

General Xiong continued to repeat his old tune:

"What will we do after the New Year if we don't receive the grain and livestock as compensation from the Hu people?"

The generals: This is truly a worrying situation! If only General Gan were here!
Ganlu River.

Our general went to deliver medicine, but never returned.

The young guards were listless and dispirited.

If Gan Minglan hadn't asked the Rat King to bring back a letter, the members of the Vanguard Battalion would have almost led their men to chase after Shache!

Gu Qianfu and others studied the passage in the letter repeatedly.

"The Hu people won't let the general return. Does the general intend to turn the tables on them?"

"That's exactly what I mean! Otherwise, given our general's temper, he would have sent these people to meet the King of Hell on the very first day they were captured. When the general negotiated with the Hu people, he used the identity of the medical team leader. If they thought he was just a doctor who was weak and only knew medicine, they wouldn't have been on guard against him."

"Hey, aren't you all worried?"

"What are you worried about? Are you worried that the general's medical skills will be discovered by the barbarians halfway through the journey?"

"No, no, no, what's the big deal about seeing through them! Just kill all those barbarians. What I'm worried about is whether the general will cause trouble on Shache's territory. What if she finishes all the work of the western expedition? Then it won't be our turn."

"Get out of here, you bastard! Can't you even hope for something good? No matter how capable the general is, he can't kill everyone in the entire royal city by himself! Besides, how many gold coins can she carry away by herself?"
