Chapter 1783 - 1387: Competing with Her Lady for a Man? Unforgivable!
Gu Changsheng and the others heard the voice, and immediately turned to look outside the inn, where chaos had already ensued!
"Godfather! It’s really Owner Landuoer, how did you end up like this? Could it be from Evil Wolf Valley?"
"Quick, quick, quick, go inform the clan leader that Miss Landuoer is passing through our tribe, and she’s hurt, go call the Mongolian doctor!"
"Hurry, let Miss Landuoer in first, she can’t get wet in the rain when she’s injured!"
"..."
The people living close to the inn heard the name Lan Duo’er and didn’t bother packing their things, they immediately ran over, each talking anxiously.
Meanwhile, Landuoer and the others were being surrounded by a group of people and brought into the inn.
Pushed aside, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but blink, then blink again, looking at the girl being surrounded in the middle, her mouth twitching, "Could it be, we’ve actually saved a big celebrity?"
Why is everyone calling for the clan leader and crowding around her like seeing an idol?
"You don’t recognize Miss Landuoer? She’s the first female warrior within a thousand miles of here, the second lady of the Tashi Tribe! Born and immediately conferred the title of Owner! She’s valuable!" A kind-hearted person walked beside Gu Changsheng, kindly reminding her, and finally said worriedly, "But, how did she come from Evil Wolf Valley and get so badly injured? If the old clan leader of Tashi knew, it would be hard for our Kelie faction to explain!"
Gu Changsheng didn’t hear the second half of this kind-hearted person’s sentence; she was already forming her mouth into an "O" shape upon hearing "the second lady of the Tashi Tribe"!
This...
This...
What kind of situation is this?
"Evildoer, we’re supposed to go to the Tashi Tribe, right?" After a while, with Landuoer and the others already seated in the hall, Gu Changsheng tugged at her evildoer’s clothes and spoke quietly.
"Yes." Zhou Mu’s answer was short and strong.
"Then we haven’t even reached the Tashi Tribe, and I’ve already offended their young lady?" Gu Changsheng raised her hand to point at herself, speaking with a face full of frustration.
"Seems like it!" This time, Shi Wujue answered her.
"Oh my god! What, haven’t I offended her too badly?" Gu Changsheng stomped her feet; the world was too unreasonable; she hadn’t even reached the land of the Tashi Tribe and already offended the local tycoon. How could she manage now?
What if they flatly refuse her entry into the Tashi Tribe?
If she can’t enter the Tashi Tribe, she won’t find the opportunity to meet the prodigy Ta You; without seeing Ta You, how would she know where the second Cold Iron Key is hidden?
Really unfortunate! The phrase "No action, no immortality" really rings true!
The Clan Chief of Kelie Tribe was a strong man in his thirties or forties, who, upon entering the inn, started asking Landuoer about her situation, inviting her to his residence to avoid the rain. However, Landuoer glanced at Gu Changsheng and the others, shook her head to refuse, so the Clan Chief didn’t insist, promptly called the Mongolian doctor to treat their wounds, and continued with official diplomacy...
In Gu Changsheng’s eyes, this was entirely the official rhetoric of diplomacy; the Clan Chief of Kelie Tribe expressed deep sympathy for Landuoer’s ordeal, mentioning that she was injured in his territory and not welcomed properly, which was his oversight, and dispatched someone to brave the rain back to Tashi Tribe to relay the news of Landuoer’s situation in Kelie faction...
Gu Changsheng watched Landuoer being treated like a star surrounded by everyone, twitching at the corner of her mouth as she found a corner in the hall for their group of five to sit, then asked the waiter for some food...
Northern Mongolian dishes were mainly meat-based, with chunks so big that it was impossible to grip them with chopsticks; holding them with both hands might not suffice. Thankfully, Gu Changsheng adapted to local customs, taking a small dagger, cutting bits of meat and stuffing them into her mouth, her face full of depression...
The disparity was stark; look at the local tycoon Landuoer thriving among the Kelie Tribe under the Tashi Tribe’s survival like a fish in water, being treated like a star, while they, though having money for food, were treated with indifference by the waiter, somewhat wounding them internally...
"Alright, let’s not be gloomy; at least we haven’t been driven out of Kelie Tribe, we have a place to shelter from the rain!" Zhou Mu placed a slice of cut meat onto Gu Changsheng’s plate, speaking resignedly to console her.
"But, what if we’re turned away at the Tashi Tribe?" In Gu Changsheng’s heart dwelled a small person clawing at the walls; she had offended the local tycoon, a saying comes to mind that even a strong dragon cannot suppress a local tycoon; no matter how strong Gu Changsheng might be, she still had to enter someone’s territory, didn’t she?
Such a dilemma...
"Don’t worry, my lady; if worst comes to worst, we can disguise ourselves and sneak in; if soft measures don’t work, we can use force..." Yuan Bao, content with his meat, chewing on a leg of lamb, spoke cheerfully.
"..." Gu Changsheng threw a disdainful glance over immediately...
Originally, strength might have been an option, but last night she witnessed the sharp arrows strapped on Landuoer’s men...
The Tashi Tribe, with its advanced smelting and Divine Weapon output, made Gu Changsheng quite apprehensive; if the whole tribe were armed with such sharp arrows, even if Gu Changsheng, Zhou Mu, and Shi Wujue could defy the norm, two fists wouldn’t be able to match four hands; they’d inevitably be shot into sieves, and that would be tragic...
Therefore, overcoming the local tycoon truly required thorough consideration...
"Miss, that woman looks too annoying!" Once the Clan Chief of Kelie Tribe left and the crowd dispersed, Ling Dang watched Gu Changsheng dining with two handsome warriors, full of indignation.
Those two men were the ones their miss had her eyes on!
Even if that woman looked good, even if her martial arts were impressive, she wasn’t worthy!
How dare she fight with my lady for a man, she deserves to die!
When Landuoer heard Ling Dang’s words, she glanced at Gu Changsheng and then withdrew her gaze to start eating with her uninjured hand.
"Miss, I’ll go probe their background right away!" Ling Dang said furiously, seeing her lady didn’t respond.
Landuoer paused with her hand holding the food but ultimately didn’t speak.
Seeing this, Ling Dang knew her lady approved tacitly and immediately strode toward the corner where Gu Changsheng and her group were!
Gu Changsheng’s peripheral vision caught the sight of the maid walking over. She couldn’t eat anymore, and immediately held her forehead, lamenting, "It’s over, it’s over! If you mess up, you’re doomed. I’ve really messed up this time! See, she’s here to settle scores with me!"
Local tycoons and whatnot are truly annoying!
Just because of one word from Landuoer, she’s going to find it hard to move an inch in this territory!
"You! I’m talking to you! Are you from the Nomadic tribe?" Ling Dang raised her hand, pointing at Gu Changsheng, asking furiously.
The Nomadic tribe is at the border between Northern Mongolian and Great Zhou, where people from Northern Mongolian and the Central Plains intermarry and give birth to mixed children who are rejected by both Great Zhou and Northern Mongolian. It’s an awkward existence.
Seeing Gu Changsheng’s distinct features and appearing deep in Northern Mongolian, Ling Dang instinctively believed this woman walking around Northern Mongolian must be from the Nomadic tribe; otherwise, why would a proper Central Plains woman come to Northern Mongolian for a stroll?
"I saved your lady..." Gu Changsheng looked at the bossy maid in front of her, covering her forehead, with a life’s dullness expression.
"I asked you whether you are from the Nomadic tribe, not whether you saved my lady!" Ling Dang frowned.
"I saved your lady..." Gu Changsheng didn’t lift her head and repeated.
"Hmph! Changing the subject, you must be an unappreciated Nomadic person from the Nomadic tribe!"
Changing the subject?
Gu Changsheng blinked while holding her forehead. This girl, she sure comes out with Central Plains expressions fluently!
"I saved your lady..."
"Do you understand human language? I didn’t ask whether you saved my lady!" Hearing this sentence again, Ling Dang was about to explode.
"I saved your lady..." Gu Changsheng is a straightforward person; whether asked or not, she saved your lady, isn’t that an objective fact?
"You!" With a brush sound, Ling Dang pulled out the whip from her waist...
Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched again; Northern Mongolian women are indeed particularly fierce!
"Ling Dang! Come back!" Sitting in the spacious area, Landuoer finally couldn’t hold back and lowly rebuked.
"Miss!" Ling Dang’s face was full of displeasure but still walked toward her lady.
Seeing Ling Dang leave, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but let out a long sigh. Oh my god, there really is a sense of escaping from a disaster, isn’t there?
Really doesn’t let people eat well!
Ling Dang returned to Landuoer’s side, Landuoer holding a bowl of Mare’s Milk Wine, looking darkly and unclear towards Gu Changsheng...
Receiving the gaze from Landuoer, Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched slightly. This gaze is quite subtle, what does it mean?
Just as Gu Changsheng twitched her mouth, looking puzzled, Landuoer raised the Mare’s Milk Wine bowl towards her...
Gu Changsheng saw this and suddenly widened her eyes!
Damn, she really wanted to pull off a surprised yet honored expression, but why does it feel so creepy?
"Look at that pathetic look! Must have known the lady’s identity and got scared! Humble Nomadic person! Hmph!" Ling Dang sneered immediately upon seeing Gu Changsheng’s expression.
Landuoer, seeing Gu Changsheng didn’t respond, didn’t care, withdrew her gaze, glared at Ling Dang, then lowered her gaze and continued eating!
"Miss!" Glared at by her own lady, Ling Dang was full of reluctance.
"When we reach our tribe, then deal with her!" Landuoer casually said!
Northern Mongolian people value martial arts and worship warriors, but Northern Mongolian people are fiercer, prouder, and more arrogant. This person who has repeatedly humiliated her Landuoer, even if she saved her, cannot redeem her sins; she will make her pay!
Hearing this, Ling Dang instantly laughed!
And sitting in the corner, seeing Ling Dang’s smiling face and the flaunting eyes glancing over at her, Gu Changsheng’s little heart trembled...
