Chapter Eleven: The Fox and the Eagle

The riverside suddenly fell into chaos, people shouted, horses neighed, black dogs barked wildly, and more than a dozen riders rushed out of the poplar forest like a rush, rolling up sand and dust to the sky.

Galan slowly straightened up and looked up to listen to the message coming from the autumn wind. A happy smile gradually appeared on her face, "Xue'er, don't be afraid, it's your fox uncle here." Then he leaned over and continued to scrub Blizzard, murmured, "Why is he here? A prophet of the uncertainty?"

Xueer stood next to Blizzard with a focused expression, gently stroked Blizzard's long hair with her little hands, without any reaction to what was happening outside.

The big horn sounded again and the alarm was lifted. The garrison soldiers and merchants who were already anxious and anxious were on guard suddenly relaxed.

Soon, the sound of hooves was like thunder and sand and dust rolled. A team of knights roared from the north, rushed into the poplar forest and galloped by the river. A burly man with long hair and loose steel beards like ink turned over without waiting for the horse to stop and rushed to the river beach like flying.

"Galan, brothers Galan, good brothers..."

"Brother He Bao..." Jia Lan looked excited and rushed forward to meet him.

"Galan..." He Bao rushed up, hugged Galan, raised it high, and shouted wildly, "Brother, good brother..." After calling, he choked and lost his voice.

Jialan landed on the ground, hugging He Bao tightly, tears hidden in his eyes, "Brother, can you always be good?"

"Okay, okay! I just miss you, brother, and I'm worried about you." He Bao hugged Jialan and slapped Jialan's back head with his big hands. "I'll go to Loulan Ancient City to find you, Dunhuang to find you, and the Western Regions Duwei Mansion in Hexi to find you. They all said you were crazy, saying that you were taken to the Chang'an prison, and some people said you were dead. I know you won't die, who in the world can kill you? A few days ago, Brother Jie arrived in Ziyuntian, and I realized that you were in Tianma River and Tulunchuan, so I went south overnight to Tianma River. I want to find you, and I want to scold you."

He Bao pushed Jialan away with force and asked angrily, "Brother, since you are amateur Tulunchuan, why don't you come to Ziyuntian? Why don't you come to me? Even if you don't have a place to live and die in this world, as long as my brother is here, as long as Ziyuntian's brother is here, you have a home and a group of brothers who are willing to live and die with you."

"Brother, I'm here to find you." Galan said with emotion, "Aren't I here?"

A dozen burly men swarmed around and bowed together, "Galan..."

Galan smiled and nodded, hugging everyone one by one.

Buyi and Jiang Duhou came over with a strong man. Jialan bowed and bowed to salute, "Senior Brother..."

The strong man's eyes were sharp, as cold and arrogant as an eagle, showing a cold murderous aura, and was aggressive, making people afraid to look at each other.

"Now you are awake? No more killing people randomly? No more arbitrary?"

Galan showed shame on his face, "I will salvation for my sin."

The strong man sighed sadly, "Although the wind and sand of Tulunchuan saved you from madness, it cannot redeem your sins. Now that God has let you leave Tulunchuan, it means that your human nature has not yet been destroyed and you still have to save it. You must learn to save yourself and use your life to repay the serious sins you have committed."

Jialan bowed to the teachings and was about to speak, but when he heard Jiang Duhou shouting angrily, "Brother Vulture, why didn't you convert to monks to save all living beings? Sin? What sin? How did we kill people missed?"

"You are not crazy, but he is crazy." The strong man pointed at Galan, and a trace of pain flashed out of his eyes. "Because of his madness, the Northwest Wolf was almost wiped out, and hundreds of people were implicated. How many innocent people died tragically under his knife? Isn't this a sin? Isn't such a sin deep enough?"

"Traveling west..." Buyi gently patted the strong man's shoulder and whispered, "Let the past go over. If Galan can wake up from madness, we can still see that the little brothers of that year are already the mercy of God. The brothers in the sky, like us, will not blame Galan, and they do not want Galan to sink from now on and become a wolf who only knows how to kill."

He sighed bitterly when he walked westward, and a trace of tears flashed through his eyes. Suddenly, he opened his arms and hugged Galan tightly into his arms, "Good brother, good brother..."

Galan's eyes were filled with tears and she was speechless.

Blizzard roared with thunder and rushed over like a wind. Ashina He Bao screamed strangely, hugged Blizzard's big head, with his face close to his face, and shouted excitedly, "Little guy, I miss my brother to death." Blizzard roared with thunder, broke free from He Bao's hug, lowered his head and made a "intimate contact". Suddenly, it saw the journey westward, and its majestic body immediately soared. He Bao was not prepared and was immediately knocked to the ground by it.

Blizzard squeezed into the middle of Galan and Westward Journey, and his big head pressed against his westward Journey's waist and abdomen, making two cheerful growls. Westward Journey bent over and hugged it, and while making intimate calls, he stroked its long neck hair.

Xueer ran over and followed Blizzard closely, never leaving her.

Everyone was surprised when they saw a little girl with pink makeup.

Jialan picked up Xueer, walked westward and said, "Xueer, this is the uncle who travels westward. You can call him the uncle of Jiu." He pointed to Ashina and introduced, "This is Uncle He Bao. The people in the Western country usually call him Firefox. You can call him Firefox or Uncle Fox."

Xueer turned a deaf ear, just staring at Blizzard, and made intimate calls from time to time, "Xueer..."

Everyone immediately noticed that the little girl looked dull and her eyes were lacking in her ordinary children's spirit. Asina Hebao asked strangely, "Whose child is this? I picked it up on the road?"

Jialan did not answer, but asked Xixing with concern, "Senior Brother, are you injured?"

"Give Ah Chailu a bite." Xiong Xing's face suddenly turned cold, "I have a heavy responsibility and I must go to Qiemo City immediately. You and Buyi, Xiong Ba clean up and follow me to Qiemo immediately."

Jialan, Buyi and Jiangduhou exchanged glances. Buyi said without hesitation, "Brother Vulture, set off immediately."

On the river bank, the garrison soldiers and the Hujia stood together in groups of three or three, looking at the group of murderous burly men while whispering.

A Hu Jia approached Shi Penglai and asked in a low voice, "That's the famous thief of the West?"

Shi Penglai nodded and smiled, "You are lucky enough to see him, but you are not robbed by him. This is the only time in your life."

Zhaowu Qu Shuzhi glanced at Shi Penglai and smiled knowingly. Now he was sure that he should be in danger of going to Dunhuang. With this famous thief, the Firefox who traveled thousands of miles north, would not be in danger of life and death.

The Northwest Wolf is a special existence in the Northwest Army of the Great Sui Dynasty. They have a close connection with the Western thieves, the Western tyrants, and even the Sand thieves. In Shi Penglai's plan, Jialan is the key, but before he saw Jialan, Shi Penglai could not confirm whether Jialan, who was guarding the border of Tulunchuan, still had the same strength as before. Now it seems that Shi Penglai's worries are redundant. Even if Jialan is paired with the garrison soldiers, his strength in the Western Regions has not been reduced. Whether it is the Northwest Wolf or the Great Thief Firefox, they are still his life and death brothers.

Suddenly, Qu Shuzhi saw Jia Lan wave to him. He hesitated a little, not knowing whether Jia Lan greeted Shi Penglai or him. Shi Penglai didn't care much, and pulled Qu Shuzhi and hurried to the river beach.

"This is a trip to the west of the Western Regions Duwei Mansion."

Jialan did not introduce the official position of traveling west, but Shi Penglai and Qu Shuzhi guessed from the pair of eyes that were as cold as a cold blade and the sharp momentum that was not angry but powerful, he guessed that this person must be a northwestern wolf. Those who have not experienced bloody killings would never have such terrible momentum.

The Western Regions Duwei Mansion is located in Zhangye, Hexi. It is in charge of diplomatic and commercial affairs between the Great Sui Dynasty and the countries in the Western Regions, and implements the Western Land strategies of the Great Sui Dynasty. Its core task is to spy, collect and analyze the confidential information of the countries in the Western Regions, provide relevant strategies for Chang'an, and be responsible for implementing these strategies.

The Northwest Wolf works in Yingyang Mansions in various northwest to guard the border. Once the Western Regions Commander's Mansion needs them, they will be ordered and temporarily granted special authority. The counties and counties in the northwest and Yingyang Mansions will cooperate.

This is an open secret in the Western Regions. The Great Sui Dynasty had secret troops, and the Western Regions countries also had secret troops. They all worked in the dark and were just aware of each other. Of course, the giants in the Western Regions like Shi Penglai and noble princes like Qu Shuzhi were clear about this. So when Jialan introduced his journey to the west to serve in the Western Regions Duwei Mansion, the two immediately realized that the appearance of the journey to the west must be related to the current situation and may affect their northward journey or even safety.

"This is Ashina Hebao." After taking Galan's words, he pointed at Ashina Hebao and said, "That is, the famous Firefox. Firefox is Jialan's brother, and Shi Bo is Jialan's elder. When you go to Loulan, the Firefox will protect Shi Bo's caravan."

Shi Penglai and Qu Shuzhi looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

The sentence of traveling west has a lot of mystery. Jialan must have told Zhaowu Qu Shuzhi the identity of the traveling west truthfully, but he did not mention it at all. It can be seen that traveling west has no intention of getting involved in this matter, and he did not want to put the Western Regions Duwei Mansion in passively because of this matter. Qu Shuzhi was rescued by Shi Penglai, and the Duwei Mansion in charge of diplomacy in the Western Regions has no idea yet. No one can predict what countermeasures the Western Regions Duwei Mansion will come up with in the future. Therefore, whether from the interests of the Great Sui Dynasty or from its own interests, the practice of traveling west is understandable.

The Great Sui people could protect Shi Penglai and his caravans, but the premise was that the Great Sui people did not know the Zhaowu Qushu branch. If this would be the benefit of expelling the disadvantages, it would be beneficial to the future. These Great Sui garrison soldiers who protected the caravans were bound to be free. On the contrary, it had nothing to do with these garrison soldiers.

"Achaelu is chasing from the south." He continued westward, "You set off immediately, lead the way with the Firefox, and rush to Loulan as quickly as possible."

Shi Penglai was very surprised, "A Chailu is behind us? How can we be sure?"

"Because of him."

Traveling west, Buyi, Jiangduhou and Asuna Hebao raised their hands and pointed at Galan at the same time.

"Fu Yun once swore to Daxue Mountain that he would kill the golden wolf's head in this life." Xixing sneered, "You are ignorant of it. You are slow in walking and sleeping day and night. But Achae's chae's pursuit day and night. If nothing unexpected happens, you can reach the Hongfeng Sea tonight. If you camp here, you will be attacked by Achae's chae's. You will set off immediately, and you may not be able to wait."

Shi Penglai looked at Jialan and asked in disbelief, "What did you do in Fuqi City? Did the woman who defiled his ancestral grave or did he dig his ancestral grave?"

"He did everything you could think of, and he did everything you could not think of. Now Fu Yun wished he could eat his flesh and drink his blood. Once he learned that the golden wolf head appeared, he would chase him to the end even if he went to heaven and earth."

Galan had no expression on his face and said nothing.

Shi Penglai stopped talking, pulled Qu Shuzhi and left, summoned his subordinates to pack up their things and continue on the way.

The desert is vast and the sunset is like blood.

Four knights, four camels, twelve war horses, a snow mastiff and a big wolf dog, ran over the yellow sand Gobi and walked through the poplar willow forest.

As night fell, the four of them found a shelter by the river to rest for a while.

"There are traitors in Qiemo City. If the news is not reported early, the city will be lost." He walked west while sitting by the bonfire, his face pale and slowly said, "I was ordered to rush to Qiemo City, but the city was surrounded by Achaelu. He was not allowed to rush to the formation alone, but he could not support himself. He was injured and ran to Ziyuntian for help."

He looked up at Jialan and continued, "When I rushed to the battlefield, I once reported the news with a whistleblower, but there were no reinforcements in the city, so I infer that you three are not in the city. Considering that when Achaelu besieged the city, they must divide their troops to attack Tianmashu, so I guess you may retreat from the Tulunchuan beacon tower. Therefore, I asked the Fire Fox to escort me south, but we actually met in the Hongfeng Sea."

"Luckily you are coming quickly." Buyi smiled, "Xiong Ba and I planned to rush to Qiemo City tonight, and Jialan escort the caravan to Ziyuntian alone. If you come one step late, you can only see Jialan alone, and things will be more troublesome."

"Jaran alone is enough." Xixing said, "With you two being able to meet him in the city, you will be able to successfully break through Achaelu's blockade and enter the city smoothly."

"Brother Vulture, didn't you say that Fu Yun vowed to kill the Golden Wolf Head?" Xiong Ba said with a smile, "It can be imagined that when Jia Lan rushed to the formation, the earth would definitely shake, but the result was very tragic. I might lose another brother."

Jialan laughed, "Senior Brother, where did you hear the news? I didn't do it alone in robbing the palace, so why did Fu Yun keep this account on me?"

"Because you snatched the goddess of the Great Snow Mountain and defiled the gods of the Tuyuhun people." Xiong Ba laughed, "The things that Fu Yun could not even eat were swallowed by you, the unknown junior, in one bite. Do you think he hated you to the bone?"

"That is Fu Yun's daughter, the most beloved princess." Xixing looked grim and asked coldly, "Where is she? Where did you hide her? You offended the emperor because of an insignificant woman. Are you crazy?"

"That's the woman I stolen, it's my woman. Why do I give my woman to the emperor?" Jialan smiled and asked sternly.

"Okay! OK! OK! This is my good brother!" Jiang Duhou clapped and shouted, "Emperor is a bird? If we don't even give a bird feather, what can we do to me?"
