Ma Jiamen: I was forced to fight for supremacy

Chapter 199 Zheng Xiaoqiao

"I am Dou Zhengxing, a bastard of the Guanlong Dou family, and I am currently serving as the Captain of the Northern Camp of the Guanzhong Army of the Liang State.

I attacked you because you wrote the poem "Chrysanthemum Fu" and you wanted our Chang'an city to be "covered in golden armor."

This was done by me alone and has nothing to do with the Dou family or the Guanzhong Army.

That’s all I can say. You can kill me or chop me up as you please.”

"Dou family, Dou Zhengxing."

Ma Zhan looked at Dou Zhengxing who was still tough, and felt a little touched.

"You are an excellent soldier, nipping threats in the bud.

If I were you, I would do the same.

But you might as well ask Wang Zhengben, the leader of your generation in Guanlong, why I wrote this poem.

Dou Zhengxing looked at Ma Zhan in confusion, "You wrote the poem, what does it have to do with Wang Zhengben?"

Ma Zhan untied the bowstring from his leg and said regretfully:

"You are really being used as a gun.

At Wang Zhengben's poetry meeting, he wanted to take the opportunity to suppress me. How could I not fight back?

Doesn't my Ma family have any face?"

Although Dou Zhengxing is upright, he is not a stupid person.

Wang Zhengben only told him that the poem "Chrysanthemum Fu" was written by the Ma family, but did not explain under what circumstances it was written.

Of course, that didn't stop Dou Zhengxing from attacking Ma Zhan.

Anyway, I failed, which means I am not as skilled as others. There is nothing much to say.

Dou Zhengxing felt relieved and his expression relaxed. He said:

"There's no point in saying more. You and I are natural enemies. I'm a soldier, and you're a disciple of the military. Give me a quick death."

Ma Zhan smiled, suddenly pinched Dou Zhengxing's chin, stuffed a brown pill into his mouth, and forced him to swallow it.

Dou Zhengxing's true energy was blocked and his arms were dislocated, leaving him with no room for resistance.

"You, what did you feed me?"

Ma Zhan laughed and said:

"Heart-Eating and Bone-Transforming Pill, this poison was concocted by me, and only I can cure it.

If there is no antidote after a month, your internal organs will turn into pus bit by bit, and your bones will become like weathered stones, breaking at the slightest touch.

Do you feel uncomfortable in your stomach now?

Ma Zhan reattached his arm, removed the Soul Locking Ring, and continued:

“Don’t mess with me again for one month. After we leave the secret realm, I will give you the antidote.

Now you should find a place to deal with it."

Dou Zhengxing felt like his stomach was churning and he was about to burst out from the back and lower part of his body.

His face turned red from holding it in, and in the end he could only utter a harsh word.

"You, you, you are so cruel."

Ma Zhan and Zheng Xiaoqiao continued to move towards their goal. They had a preliminary understanding of each other and their relationship became much closer.

The journey was not so boring anymore.

Zheng Xiaoqiao asked: "Ma Hu, how did you find out that we were being followed?"

Ma Zhan replied: "I have read the notes of the seniors who came into the secret realm. The things on this scorched earth will not actively attack practitioners.

We encountered two different monsters in a row. This is not normal. Someone must be playing tricks."

Zheng Xiaoqiao understood and then asked:

"Then how do you know for sure there's someone else behind those two?"

"One is from the wolf tribe, and the other is a barbarian. These two have nothing in common with me. Why would they plot against me? Are they looking for trouble?"

Zheng Xiaoqiao nodded and thought, this man's mind works so quickly, is he really only twelve years old?

"Can you give me one of your Heart-Eating and Bone-Transforming Pills?

I have some knowledge of pharmacology, and I have never heard of that kind of poison."

Ma Zhan was stunned for a moment, then took out a similar brown pill and handed it to Zheng Xiaoqiao, explaining:

"I made up the Heart-Eating and Bone-Transforming Pill to prevent Dou Zhengxing from causing me trouble again. It's just an ordinary laxative."

Zheng Xiaoqiao put the pill to the tip of his nose and sniffed it. "It is indeed a laxative. This guy is a bit naughty."

She did not return the pill to Ma Zhan, but kept it for herself and said:

"I think Dou Zhengxing has a straightforward personality and a relatively simple mind. You should be able to create a rift between him and Wang Zhengben, which would be beneficial to you."

The little girl is really smart. She knows how to be political and how to judge people. Whoever marries you in the future will be in trouble.

My Mengyao is the best. She sees everything but doesn’t say it out loud.

Ma Zhan shook his head and said:

"It's meaningless. The Guanlong nobles are not united. They have long been at odds with each other for their own interests.

However, they have been intermarrying for hundreds of years, and you are in me and I am in you.

When facing outsiders, they will naturally stand together and share the same hatred for the enemy.

I am that outsider.”

"Then why don't you kill him? If you really go to war with them in the future, you'll have one less formidable enemy."

After hearing this, Ma Zhan had to re-examine this little girl.

Not only is she smart, but she is also cruel and ruthless. When working in a team with her, Ma Zhan is worried that he will be sold out by her.

Ma Zhan calmly replied: "I will not kill him. He is a soldier of Liang State. He should die on the battlefield, not in a personal vendetta against me."

This sentence made Zheng Xiaoqiao silent, and the image of Ma Zhan in his mind instantly became taller.

This is what a young talent should be like.

Think about those playboys from the aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty. They were so lazy and devoted all their ambitions to the belly of the courtesan.

If this continues, the world will sooner or later belong to Liang.

There is a horse battle in the Qingshui Marquis Mansion, and Qingshui is a horse race.

Zheng Xiaoqiao deeply engraved the two names of the same person in his mind.

"arrive."

Ma Zhan's voice interrupted Zheng Xiaoqiao's thoughts.

Looking at the ruined palace in front of us, we can vaguely imagine how magnificent it was in the past.

Led by Ma Zhan, the two men walked cautiously towards the hall.

Ma Zhan saw the scattered footprints on the ground and was sure that most people had reached the second floor.

The two came to a huge square sheng, and Ma Zhan put Si Yongcai's jade pendant on his waist. Zheng Xiaoqiao watched Ma Zhan transform into a young scholar.

After Ma Zhan fastened the jade pendant, he said:

"Take off your mask, change your hairstyle, and preferably your clothes.

We were delayed by Dou Zhengxing, they should all have gone in.

The speed of time on the two levels is different. Change your image, or you'll be killed as soon as you land."

Zheng Xiaoqiao was not pretentious. She took off her mask and tied her hair into a high ponytail.

He took off his coat without hesitation and changed into a samurai uniform.

Ma Zhan looked at the heroic Zheng Xiaoqiao in front of him and said:

"Let's go in."

"Wait a minute."

Zheng Xiaoqiao stepped forward, took Ma Zhan's hand, nodded at him and said, "Okay."

Feeling the softness in his hand, Ma Zhan couldn't help but pinch it.

A blush crept up Zheng Xiaoqiao's cheeks, and his voice trembled slightly.

"Let's go."

The two held hands and jumped into Fang Sheng at the same time.
