Detian argued: "Then the soldiers of Southern Qi are like this too? Several times they attack when our livestock are giving birth. Isn't this going to cut off our way of survival?"
Deshan said: "My God, I'm telling you, don't look at your second cousin's current glory, but do you know that Chen Chongbing of Southern Qi is at the border now, and those who rush over will most likely not be able to come back. I advise
You'd better give up on this idea! At least we still have some extra income, which makes it somewhat better than other tribes."
He Qizhou and Xu Mu looked at each other. Isn't the herdsman who warmly invited them the enemy they are trying so hard to deal with? The young people of these tribes are actually keen to join the army and rob the people of Qi. Should they be dealt with now? This
Is this considered repaying kindness with hatred?
Just as he was hesitating, he heard Tokuyama say again: "You two, hurry up and eat. We are just complaining and making you laugh. We don't have many tents with us, so we can only share the smallest one at night."
You guys, what do you think?"
He Qizhou hurriedly put down his murderous intention and waved his hand: "No, no, no, we have a tent made of snakeskin. We have been here like this all the way."
"Well, to be honest, I don't want to be squeezed together with this eldest brother. His snoring can only be tolerated by my sister-in-law." Tokuyama said: "Tian'er, go find a thicker sheepskin mattress for you two."
"No, no, no..." He Qizhou waved his hand.
"Brother Zhou, don't be polite. It's been a lot colder these days. This sister is shivering in the tent. Your tent will be set up on the east side of this big tent later. It can block the cold.
Less cold wind." Detian said enthusiastically.
He Qizhou suddenly found that his murderous intention towards Detian, who wanted to join the army, had suddenly disappeared.
A thick sheepskin mattress was placed in the small snake shed tent. After a good meal, Xiaoxue finally no longer needed to fall asleep in Qi Zhou's arms. However, the two of them could not fall asleep for a long time. The enemy was right in front of them, but the enemy did not seem to be there.
The bad guys even knew that the two of them were hiding something but still enthusiastically helped each other. So what should the Zhou people do in the future when facing these Zhou people who will become warriors when they mount their horses?
Xiaoxue seemed to see He Qizhou's thoughts and said: "No matter what happens in the future, at least we are friends and not enemies now, so don't think so much."
"Well," He Qizhou said: "Actually, we only need to drive the Zhou people out of Yanbei. In the future, we will only have to deal with the invading enemies."
"Oh, it would be great if we could stop fighting." Xiaoxue said.
"Yes, but unfortunately this is not something we can control." He Qizhou sighed.
In the early morning, before it was bright, the busy voices of the Pangu tribe could be heard outside the tent. Soon, young Detian called to the two of them outside the tent and brought them milk tea and shortbread that were still smoking.
After breakfast, the Pangu people had packed up their tents. Dehai asked Xu Muxue to get on his ox cart. He Qizhou was finally able to ride on his snow dragon horse, and the group headed northeast.
Detian followed and asked He Qizhou about the horse bandits. He Qizhou had no choice but to make up some stories to lie to him, saying that he had been imprisoned in the horse bandits' lair in the mountains and asked him to do all the hard work. Recently, there had been disasters everywhere, and the horse bandits
After finding very little and the government's search was tight, they prepared to go out with all their strength and try their luck in the west. Finally, they found a chance to escape.
Detian was very disappointed. He didn't expect that this guy who looked like a weathered man was not as experienced and experienced as he was.
After the group had walked more than twenty miles, a gentle mountain range appeared in front of them. The group of hundreds of people suddenly split into four or five groups and headed in different directions.
Dehai introduced to He Qizhou: "This is the remnant of Helan Mountain, and it is the place with the most luxuriant water and grass. Each family of our Pangu tribe will choose different valleys as campsites, so everyone will separate here and return to their respective camps.
After that, I will rest for two days before heading to other places to graze."
"The grass here grows much better than where we set out in the morning. Why do we have to work so hard to transfer?" He Qizhou asked.
"The coldest period has not yet arrived, so while there is still grass around, eat the surrounding grass first. The grass in the valley is really reserved for winter," Dehai said.
"Oh." He Qizhou responded and continued to move forward with De Hai and his party.
Dehai introduced that his family can only be regarded as a small family in the Pangu tribe, with a total of more than 60 people. The fourth brother Deshan took over the position of the patriarch. This time, he brought 20 strong men out to herd, and the rest of the old, young, women and children
They all stayed in the camp.
He Qizhou looked at the livestock behind him. There were about two hundred sheep, more than ten cows, fifty or sixty horses and six camels, and then asked: "Are these all the livestock in your family?"
"Almost all of them. Many of them are going to be sent to the Tongwan City labor force. There are also some young animals that have just been weaned in the camp." Dehai said.
"It seems to be a little missing. I still have some scattered silver with me, so please accept it. Although I can't repay your life-saving grace, it can give us some peace of mind." He Qizhou calculated the money for the De family.
property, and found that they did not have as much money as the Keji people.
"Little brother, you don't look like a bad guy, so let me tell you, our Pangu tribe discovered a salt lake that can be sold privately to the salt gang in Tongwan City, so we saved some money, so don't be polite
Yes." In order to refuse He Qizhou's money, Dehai did not hesitate to leak out the secrets of his family.
"Brother Zhou, don't be polite. Father, I'll go back first to see if my sister-in-law has given birth." Detian said.
"Go, don't run too fast." Dehai replied. Seeing Detian Pegasus running back quickly, Dehai said to He Qizhou: "I still have a son, and my wife is about to give birth. She has already given birth to two.
I have a daughter, I hope it’s a boy this time.”
"Congratulations first, uncle." He Qizhou said.
"It's almost here. We'll be there after climbing two more mountain ridges. Alas, if God doesn't live up to his expectations, we herdsmen will suffer! In previous years, we had already stocked up on grass. We don't have to run around like we do now. We can't see our families more than once a month.
.”
"Well, that's true." He Qizhou felt deeply when he thought about the victims in his hometown who had to sell their sons and daughters.
The two mountain ridges looked very close, but it took half a day to walk. It was only in the afternoon that we reached the top of the second mountain ridge. Below the mountain ridge, there was a gentle valley about several miles in diameter, with dozens of yurts scattered at random, walking behind the team.
The leader of the clan, Deshan, stepped forward and said to Dehai: "It's strange, why is there not even a child?"
"Yes, there are usually a lot of people coming here on weekdays?" Dehai was also a little puzzled. His son had already come back, and the dozen or so children in the family would usually rush up the mountain ridge to greet them.
Suddenly I saw a man rushing out of a yurt in the valley. He grabbed a horse and ran towards the ridge. After a while, another man rushed out of the yurt. He drew his bow and shot an arrow at the rider. Then he probably saw someone on the ridge.
The crowds and livestock shouted loudly, but they saw more than ten people running out of other yurts, all of them seemed to be holding things in their hands, and then they all ran towards the northeast on horseback.
"No!" Dehai shouted, and drove his horse down the hillside quickly. Others followed suit, and some of those who had their bows and arrows hanging immediately also came forward with their bows as they ran.
He Qizhou yelled at Xu Muxue who was on the bullock cart behind him: "Be careful, I'll go take a look too." He then drove his horse to follow the people from the Virtue family.
Everyone soon discovered that the man who came out of the yurt and rode up the mountain ridge was none other than Detian!
When Detian was more than ten feet away from Deshan, he fell off his horse crookedly, with a long arrow stuck in his back. Brother Deshan and Dehai shouted, dismounted and rushed over. He Qizhou also got off his horse and found Deshan.
His face was bloodless and he looked like he was dying!
"Qi people rob the camp, take revenge, take revenge..." Detian used his last ounce of vitality to squeeze out a few words from his mouth, and died.
Deshan screamed in agony and shouted: "Follow me and get on your horse to kill the enemy!"
Dehai's eyes were ferocious. He quickly mounted his horse, whipped out the hatchet on the horse's side, and rushed towards the twenty cavalrymen who were running away to the opposite mountain ridge. The remaining members of the Dehai family did not care about their own cattle and sheep.
, also rushed down the mountain.
He Qizhou followed Dehai, fearing that something might happen to him because of his anger. But he was extremely conflicted in his heart. Detian's fatal injury was not an arrow wound, but a severe internal injury that he had suffered previously, and his hands were tied.
It was obvious that he was shot when he secretly cut the rope and escaped. The two injuries were concurrent. A moment ago, he was a living boy, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a cold corpse.
There must be people with strong martial arts skills among those people. If it was really Qi Jun, then who should he help? I didn't expect that the problem last night would suddenly be in front of me today.
The chasing virtuous men soon passed the first yurt. The door curtain was cut off with a knife. The scene inside the yurt was clear at a glance. There were two female corpses, one old and one young. The girl's lower body was naked. The inside of the yurt was turned upside down, and then
The camp was littered with the carcasses of young and old, lambs and calves.
Dehai, who was rushing at the front, still couldn't help but stop in front of the big tent that Detian rushed out of. The scene after he dismounted and opened the door curtain made him faint immediately. He Qizhou, who was by his side, hurriedly supported him and choked him.
Among people, there is another trace of true energy.
Dehai woke up slowly, without saying a word, and took out a pair of bows and arrows from the tent. He wanted to mount his horse again, but he stumbled and fell down again. He Qizhou helped him sit down, grabbed the bow and arrows, and said, "Leave it to me.
, none of them can escape." After saying that, he wiped away the tears that came from his eyes, mounted the snow dragon horse, and roared away.
There were five corpses lying across Dehai's tent, including his wife, eldest son, two granddaughters less than six years old, and his daughter-in-law who was about to give birth. Her daughter-in-law was also naked. There was blood everywhere in the tent, and the big one in the middle
There was still a cut section of rope under the pillar. Dehai, who was in his fifties, saw He Qizhou flying away and fainted again...
He Qizhou passed through the yurts, but there was not a single living person, not even a living animal. The anger in his heart had already burst into flames. He could be cruel to the enemy, but he could not lose his bottom line, let alone lose his conscience!
