Chapter - 116 Avoiding the Enemy By All Means (11)

Yang Guo laughed and asked him some questions instead, "What is your name? What post do you hold?" The official's eyes lit up in anger, he was about to jump out at him again. Yang Guo ignored him and sat down on the seat that the official had previously sat on. The official's arms came out waving up and down, attacking ferociously; Yang Guo just waved out his hands without trying and didn't use any strength to neutralize his attacks. He said, "Hey, you've got a wound on your shoulder, its better if you don't use any energy."

The official was startled and said, "What wound?" His left hand rubbed his right shoulder, there was a slight pain there, he quickly stretched out his right hand and checked his left shoulder, and there was an identical pain. He had not moved his shoulders so didn't notice the wounds; when he used his fingers to touch his shoulder, there was a small area that ached to the bone. The official was shocked, he quickly took off his garment and looked over his shoulder; he saw a red dot on his left shoulder and there was a similar dot on his right. He understood, just know when Yang Guo held his shoulders, he had a concealed weapon in his hands and now had fallen into his scheme. He was startled and shocked, he shouted, "What weapon did you use? Does it have poison or not?"

Yang Guo gave a wry smile and said, "You've learned martial arts, how come you don't know the rules? Large concealed weapons have no poison, small ones of course have."

The official believed him but hoped that he made it up to scare him. His face's expression seems to be convinced but also seemed to be suspicious.

Yang Guo smiled and said, "Your shoulder has fallen victim to my divine needle, its poison deepens an inch every day, by the sixth day the poison will have reached the heart, then you'll be dead."

The official wanted him to cure the poison yet he didn't dare ask. In anger he shouted, "Since it has ended up like this then this Master is going to take you with me." He threw himself forward again. Yang Guo slipped past him.

He took out two 'Jade Bee Needles' and waited until his claws came out again, the hands came out, he sent the needles into his palms. The official felt a pain in his palms and stopped, he raised his hands to take a look and saw a fine needle in his palms. He immediately felt his palms go numb; he was shocked and didn't dare to attack again. Another half hour passed before he said, "Fine, I admit defeat!"

Yang Guo laughed out loud and asked, "What's you name?"

The official replied, "My name is Yelu Jin, can I have the honour of knowing the hero's name?"

Yang Guo replied, "My name is Yang Guo. What post do you hold within the Mongolian government?"

Yelu Jin told him everything. He was the Mongolians Prime Minister Yelu Chucai's son. Yelu Chucai aided Genghis Khan and Wo Kuo Tai (Ogedai) to take over many lands. His achievements were outstanding, that is why although Yelu Jin was of a relatively young age, he held the high position of 'Bianliang Jinglue Emissary' (Military Governor of Bianliang city), he had come south to Henan to complete a mission.

Yang Guo didn't know what kind of position this was, he just nodded his head and said, "Fine, fine."

Yelu Jin said, "I don't know what I have done to disrespect the hero, please forgive my ignorance. If the hero has an order please say it."

Yang Guo laughed and said, "You haven't done anything." He suddenly darted out of the window.

Yelu Jin was shocked and called out, "Hero Yang" and ran to the window, but there was no trace of Yang Guo. Yelu Jin was troubled, "This person comes and goes as he pleases. I've fallen victim to his poison needles, what should I do?" He quickly took out the needles from his palm and felt the numbness in his palms and shoulders to begin to feel unbearable. In the midst of all this the window opened, Yang Guo suddenly returned and the room had another person, it was Lu Wushuang.

Yelu Jin said, "Ah, you've come back."

Yang Guo pointed to Lu Wushuang and said, "She is my Wifey, kowtow to her!"

Lu Wushuang shouted, "What did you say?" She turned her hand and gave him a slap. If Yang Guo wanted to avoid it how would she be able to hit him? For an inexplicable reason, when he was slapped and scolded by her he felt good. He didn't move and a slapping sound was heard as his cheek was hit. Yelu Jin didn't know that these two always argued like this. He assumed that Lu Wushuang's kung fu was stronger than Yang Guo's; he stared in a daze at the two.

Yang Guo rubbed his cheek and laughed at Yelu Jin. He said, "You've suffered the poison of my divine needles, but you won't die straight away. All you've got do is listen to my orders and then I'll heal you."

Yelu Jin said, "I've always admired heroes and good men, but I have never seen people with such abilities. Today I have finally met someone worthy of this title, it is an honour. If hero Yang doesn't tell me to live, I could still die with my eyes closed." These words maintained his high status but praised the other at the same time. Yang Guo had never spoken with officials before and he didn't know that they've all learned how to praise their superiors; the higher the official, the better they are at flattery without being obvious. The officials from Mongolia were rough and coarse people but after they entered the central plains, they learned the ways of the officials of China. After some words of praise, Yang Guo was pleased, he raised his finger and said, "Well, I didn't guess that you are a man of honour as well. Come, I'll immediately cure your poison." He then used a sucking metal stone to remove the needles from his shoulder and then applied the antidote to the wounds.

Lu Wushuang had never seen the 'Jade Bee Needles' before; she saw that the needles were as fine as hair and it looked as though if one placed the needles on water, they will float. She thought, "A gust of wind can blow that away, how can you use it as a concealed weapon?" She was even more in awe of Yang Guo but the words from her mouth said, "That type of evil weapon isn't honorable, aren't you afraid of others laughing at you?"

Yang Guo laughed and ignored her, he said to Yelu Jin, "The two of us want to rely on you, your honour and be your attendants."

Yelu Jin was startled and quickly said, "Hero Yang jokes with me, whatever you want just tell me."

Yang Guo said, "I'm not joking, I really want to be your attendant your honour."

Yelu Jin thought, "So the two want work for the government and gain something for themselves." He couldn't stop himself from being pleased, he gave a cough and returned to a serious face and said, "Hmm, you've learned great martial arts, working for our king will lead to great prospects."

Yang Guo laughed and said, "You've got it all wrong. We are being chased by an extremely powerful foe. We can't beat her and want to disguise ourselves as your attendants to evade her."

Yelu Jin was disappointed, his serious face loosened then he chucked and said, "With your martial arts, who gives a care about enemies. If there are too many of them I'll gather my troops and catch them and let you decide on what to do."
