After hearing Gongshu Chou's words, before Jiang Ning could say anything, the officer beside him spoke first,"
"Of course. Don't you know who our general is? Our general is the Jiangning General who led a thousand soldiers to wipe out tens of thousands of Xiongnu tribes.”
"Also, with our general here, no Xiongnu would dare to cross the border. If you had passed through our border area today, I'm afraid you wouldn't have encountered these Xiongnu cavalry.”
The officer puffed out his chest proudly.
Before Gongshu Chou could say anything, a crisp female voice came from the caravan behind him.
"Your general is valiant, but if you delay for a while, I'm afraid your general will become a one-armed general.”
Hearing this voice, everyone looked in the direction of the voice.
Everyone dispersed from Gongshu Chou's group. Among them, a woman with extremely exquisite facial features and snow-white skin stood there.
The woman had fair skin and a jade-like face. She had a pair of phoenix eyes under her willow-like eyebrows. She was petite and elegant, but what made people curious was that there was a pair of chopsticks on her hair bun.
Seeing such a beautiful woman, everyone was stunned.
However, Jiang Ning's subordinates didn't care how beautiful this woman was. When they heard this woman curse their general, they were all furious.
The officer gripped his saber tightly and pointed at the woman. He shouted angrily,"Woman, you really don't know manners. You actually cursed my general like this.”
Seeing this, Gongshu Chou hurriedly said to the officer,""General, this little girl doesn't know how to speak, so don't lower yourself to her level.”
As he spoke, Gongshu Chou quickly turned to look at the woman and said in a low voice,"Lady Duanmu, don't spout nonsense, or else I won't be able to save you.”
"Humph!"
The woman snorted and said disdainfully," I'm not talking nonsense. I, Duanmu Rong, am upright and upright. I won't lie!"”
Hearing the woman's words, the officer under Jiang Ning's command had a cold expression on his face. He raised his long sword and was ready to teach this woman a lesson.
However, Jiang Ning stretched out her hand and stopped him.
The officer looked back at Jiang Ning in confusion.
Jiang Ning ignored the officer and looked at the woman curiously." You said your name is Duanmu Rong?”
"Hmm? How about it? Don't tell me you want to bully a weak girl too?”
The woman who called herself Duanmu Rong rolled her eyes at Jiang Ning, her face full of disdain.
"Um…"
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Ning didn't respond to Duanmu Rong's obvious provocation. Instead, she asked with some doubt,"Miss Duanmu, since you're not a member of the Gongshu family, why are you with the Gongshu family?”
"This…"
Before Duanmu Rong could speak, she was interrupted by Gongshu Chou.
Gongshu Chou bowed to Jiang Ning and said,""General, this Miss Duanmu joined my Gongshu family's caravan halfway. At that time, I saw her walking alone and she saved my family's clansmen, so I agreed to bring her to the State of Qin. After that, we parted ways.”
After hearing Gongshu Chou's words, Jiang Ning's lips curled into an unknown smile.
Was he trying to distance himself from her? This was an old fox. As expected of the future master of the overbearing mechanical arts, Gongshu Chou!
Jiang Ning sighed in her heart. She did not dislike Gongshu Chou's actions. After all, a leader who did not consider his own people was not a good leader.
Jiang Ning was the best at dealing with villains.
Jiang Ning nodded and smiled,""Hehe, the Yang Gate disciple of the Nine Temples of Luoyang, the Divine Doctor Miss Duanmu Rong, how could I not have heard of her?”
"How do you know my name and my sect?”
Duanmu Rong was shocked.
At this moment, she was not as famous as she would be in the future. There were only a few people who had heard of her.
Duanmu Rong's expression became wary as she thought about it." What else do you know?”
Jiang Ning smiled faintly," This general knows a lot about the world, but you wouldn't dare to imagine it. As for your matter, although this general doesn't know everything, I know a general idea.”
Jiang Ning pretended to be confused." Ah, Duanmu, this surname is very rare."”
"You!"
Duanmu Rong really did not know how to describe her inner thoughts.
Not many people in the world knew about her background, but from the tone of this man, it seemed like he knew something.
"Who exactly are you, and what exactly do you want to do?”
Duanmu Rong looked at Jiang Ning with a solemn expression. As she spoke, a few thin silver needles slowly appeared in her hand.
Seeing this, the faces of the soldiers around Jiang Ning changed drastically, and they hurriedly tried to protect Jiang Ning.
However, Jiang Ning stretched out her hand and stopped him.
After stopping his subordinate, Jiang Ning looked at Duanmu Rong and said,""Miss Duanmu, I don't have any thoughts. I'm just fascinated by your sect's path of medicine. I hope that Miss Duanmu can stay in the border town for some time.”
Duanmu Rong looked at Jiang Ning coldly," Aren't you afraid that if I don't help you, your injuries will act up and you'll become a one-armed general?"”
Jiang Ning pursed her lips and smiled,""Ke ke, Miss Duanmu, this general believes that you are not that kind of person. Miss Duanmu has never wanted to owe others. This time, this general has saved you. If you do not save this general, you will probably not be able to sleep or eat in peace.”
"Me!"
Duanmu Rong was rendered speechless by Jiang Ning's words.
Indeed, she, Duanmu Rong, was known to be temperamental, gluttonous, good at medicine, impolite, and eccentric in her actions.
However, her principle of repaying kindness had never changed.
In the end, Duanmu Rong shook her head helplessly and looked dejected." Alright, I'll help you this once. I also promise to stay in Border Town for a while, but after that, you have to let me go, okay?"”
"Of course."
Jiang Ning nodded." Actually, I don't have any special intentions. I'm just interested in your sect's path of medicine. I hope to learn a little so that I can treat myself on the battlefield in the future."”
"Humph!"
Duanmu Rong snorted and ignored Jiang Ning, turning her face away.
