"No wonder Man'er likes fur balls, he's really smart," Huo Jincheng praised. He turned to look at Brother Qiu, who looked silly, shaking his head at the camera as if it were a novelty, and even switching his four eyes to look at it.
"Brother Qiu, do you understand the toad formation?" Huo Jincheng couldn't help but ask it.
Brother Qiu straightened his snake body, turned his head and looked at Huo Jincheng in a silly and cute way, with a hint of smile on his two snake faces.
"I understand, just like a ball of fur, nod your head, you're so stupid!" Huo Jincheng didn't like it to act cute. A snake should act like a snake. Besides, Brother Qiu was Ah Man's, which meant he was from the family. He felt that Brother Qiu didn't bring honor to him at all, so he spoke to him in a bad mood.
"Can't you just ask it nicely?" Jian Ning glared at Huo Jincheng, stroked Brother Qiu's head, and smiled softly, "Brother Qiu, let's not argue with him. Tell me, do you understand that toad formation? Do you know which three doors to open to escape?"
"I understand. If you know, just nod your head."
Qiu Ge's left head looked towards the telescope in Jian Ning's hand. Jian Ning hurriedly raised the telescope and aimed it at the Yue Kingdom soldiers training at the foot of the mountain.
Ding Youtian held Guoguo and stood beside her and Brother Qiu. Guoguo raised her paw and pointed at the telescope in Jian Ning's hand. It also wanted to take a look.
"Don't worry, let them see first, and then it will be your turn later." Among the several spiritual pets, Guoguo and Baimei have the highest IQ. To be on the safe side, Ding Youtian plans to let Guoguo see it last. He thinks Guoguo can have a look at Jinmen and Tumen.
Brother Qiu seemed to really treat the telescope as a toy, and he was addicted to it, until Jian Ning took the telescope away and asked, "Do you understand it? If you understand, nod your head."
Jian Ning asked it to nod, but it tilted its head and acted cute towards Jian Ning again. Guo Guo couldn't stand it anymore, so she jumped from Ding Youtian's arms onto it, punched it on both heads with a cat punch, and yelled fiercely.
Only then did Brother Qiu nod a few times.
Seeing Qiu Ge nod, Guoguo jumped back into Ding Youtian's arms and cried several times. Ding Youtian held it in one hand and took the telescope from Jian Ning with the other hand and held it in front of it. It took it with its two cat paws and began to scout the enemy position in an orderly manner.
Guoguo looked at the formation from beginning to end like a big boss. After putting down the telescope, he looked at Ding Youtian and Jian Ning seriously. Without waiting for them to ask, he nodded several times.
Ding Youtian was so happy that he rubbed it and said repeatedly: "After all, my love for you is not in vain. Except for not being able to speak human language, you are just as smart as a human. You are really great!"
"Stop praising it and let's get down to business first." Jian Ning said.
Tong Bajin and the others hurriedly found a flat grassland and spread out the Five Poison Formation diagram they had brought. Jian Ning asked Maoqiu to go first, "Wait until Maoqiu and Qiuge have tried it. If it doesn't work, let Guoguo try it. Maoqiu, come here."
When Maoqiu heard his name being called, he stood up suddenly. Perhaps he had become addicted to learning how to walk from the soldiers on the street that day. He walked over calmly and gracefully, and tapped a certain place on the earthen gate formation with his right front paw.
Guoguo shouted, as if to say, that's right.
Ding Youtian held it in his arms and squatted at the spot where the ball of hair had pointed, watching for a while. Then he took the wooden stick and began to calculate. After a while, a smile appeared on his face, "The ball of hair has really made progress. It is indeed the door to life."
Once one escape route was found, the remaining two escape routes were easily solved in a short while.
"Brother Qiu, it's your turn. Show some courage." Huo Jincheng called Brother Qiu. He himself was not good at this, so he pointed at Brother Qiu to give him a chance.
Brother Qiu did not disappoint him this time, mainly because Guoguo was staring at it eagerly. It twisted and turned, looked at the formation diagram for a while, stuck out its tongue and pointed at a certain place in the Golden Gate Formation. Like the ball of hair, it only pointed at one place.
Guoguo called out again.
Ding Youtian rubbed Guoguo's head and looked at it for a while. After a while, he also calculated the escape route of the Golden Gate Formation and quickly found the other two escape routes.
Putting down the stick, he clapped his hands on his forehead. "I'm still a little stupid after all. I don't know how to integrate knowledge and apply it to other things. I just blindly stick to the old ways. Damn it!"
"Even the wisest can make mistakes, which is already quite good." Qin Yifan said, "Besides, if you are a fool, how can we, the mediocre ones, cope with it? Please leave us a way out."
"That's right," Huo Jincheng said. "I've said before that we can't catch up with you even if we try our best. And not only that, today I realize that I can't even catch up with a worm."
Although he said this, the corners of Huo Jincheng's mouth turned up slightly, because Ah Man was Qiu Ge's master, and Qiu Ge was his family's spiritual pet. He felt as if he had made a big splash and was quite pleased with himself.
Jian Ning glanced at him and teased, "I personally agree with your evaluation of yourself. It's rare for you to have such a clear understanding of yourself."
"You... forget it, I'm in a good mood right now and won't argue with you." Now that they had a way to break the Five Poison Formation, Huo Jincheng was really excited, and so was Ding Youtian.
"Brother Yifan," he said, bowing to Qin Yifan. "I'm so grateful for your advice today. I'll definitely give you credit for it tomorrow! The Yue people never dreamed they'd be able to escape from the elaborate formation they'd set up with five poisonous creatures thanks to your advice. Haha, how satisfying!"
"Don't be so ridiculous." Qin Yifan also smiled and said, "Even if I don't remind you today, you will remember it later. I won't take credit for it."
"Not really," Ding Youtian said. "I have too many things on my mind, so I might not be able to think about that right now. You and I are both joining the army to fight against foreign aggression. From now on, I will rely on Brother Yifan's constant guidance."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yifan clasped his fists and said solemnly, "To borrow the words from my dear brother's manifesto, defending our borders is everyone's responsibility. Now that I have been appointed as a military officer, I will do my utmost to assist you, so rest assured."
Huo Jincheng also said: "I am not as talented as you two, but I believe that I can master all the eighteen martial arts. Brother Qiu found the escape route to the Golden Gate Formation. When the day comes to break the formation, I am willing to take charge of breaking the Golden Gate Formation."
Ding Youtian shook his finger. "Finding a way out is still extremely dangerous. Since it's the Five Poison Formation, there must be poisonous smoke and poisonous needles inside. If you take a wrong step inside, you will lose everything! Not only will you be in danger, but you will also affect those who are trying to break the formation together. Don't underestimate the enemy!"
He was just stating a fact. Although the escape route had been found, breaking the formation was not easy. He had to be careful and not be careless.
Huo Jincheng mistakenly thought he looked down on his abilities and was trying to dissuade him by threatening his life. He straightened his back, clasped his fists, and faced southeast, saying in a resounding voice, "How could I, Huo, be afraid of death? If I were afraid, I wouldn't have come to the border. Now that I'm here, if I can't return victorious, I'll shed my blood, and not rest until I've done so!"
"Why are you talking about death?" Ding Youtian was shocked.
