Qin Xiao said hurriedly: "Tage said you would give me two thousand war horses?"
"Dreaming." Tag said with a smile, "I'm trading two thousand war horses with you."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "There is a ban on horses in the grassland. Aren't you worried that Tiehan will cause trouble for you?"
"I keep my word." Tagge was happy: "I will handle the rest by myself. Xiang Gong, do you agree?"
Qin Xiao thought for a moment and then sighed: "At this point, it's no longer possible for Xiang Gong not to agree. But I'm a little worried. I'm from the Tang Dynasty. If I appear on the battlefield, will He Guren think that the Tang Gang's True Feather Division
Beating them? Will it affect the relationship between Datang and He Gu?"
"You can also choose not to agree." Tager waved the dagger in his hand very simply: "I will cut off your tongue now, look at your hands, and then... hum, you make your own choice."
Qin Xiao said helplessly: "Do you think I still have a choice?"
"You don't have to worry." Tag said calmly: "To defeat the Hegu people, we Zhenyu don't need to borrow the power of the Tang State. Your taxes in the Northeast are heavy, and many Tang people can't survive, so they come to the grassland, and we will kill them
Take them in and give them a way to survive. Among the tribes, there are at least a thousand people who came from your Tang country and are now our Zhenyu tribe. You go to the battlefield with me. Unless it is a last resort, there is no need for you to fight in the battle.
, if there is any problem then, just help me think of a solution."
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "That's no problem. But let's agree first. If everything goes well and we come back alive, Tagg will fulfill his promise. Not only will he forgive me for the mistakes I made before, but he will also trade war horses with me."
"Prairie people keep their word, unlike you Tang people who go back on their word." Tag nodded and said, "So, our deal is concluded?"
Qin Xiao twisted his body and said: "Tage, I have promised you, you should help me untie the rope now, right? The strangulation will hurt my whole body. If the strangulation is broken, I will not be able to accompany Tage in the battle."
Tage hesitated for a moment and then said: "If you go back on your promise and play tricks, I will tear you into pieces." Then he went over and untied the rope for Qin Xiao, but the rope was tied with more than a dozen ropes and was very complicated. Tagg solved it
After opening two, I was really impatient and asked someone to come in and untie the rope. It took a while to untie it.
Qin Xiao moved his hands and feet a little, and said with a wry smile: "If I tie it up overnight, I will be paralyzed the next day." He consciously went to sit down by the table, took the wine bottle from Tagg just before he drank, and before Tagg waited
After reacting, he raised his head and took a sip, praising: "It smells so good. This pot of wine seems to be much sweeter than other wines. Tag, what kind of wine is this? Please let me get more."
But Ta Ge could see clearly that she had just entered the tent, picked up the wine bottle and took a sip. Qin Xiao was holding the wine bottle that she had just used, and drank directly without even wiping it. Although the prairie people were informal
Small section, but this still makes Tagg a little angry.
After all, she is also a shrewd person. Qin Xiao's words were clearly teasing herself, and she said angrily: "Do you want to be tied up again?"
"I don't dare." Qin Xiao laughed and said, "Tage, do you want to drink together?"
But Tag ignored him, rolled his eyes at him, and said: "I have to deal with some tribal affairs. We will leave in two days. You can stay here and ask the sheep if you need anything." Then he said with a half-smile but not a smile:
"Yang Chiji has selected some beauties for you. I heard that you don't like them. How about asking him to select two more for you, so that you won't be lonely here alone."
"I don't like hearing what Tag said." Qin Xiao said seriously: "For those who have seen a rainbow, do you think you can still like candlelight?"
"Rainbow?" Tagg didn't react for a moment.
Qin Xiao said quietly: "Tage is a rainbow. After seeing a rainbow like Tage, do you think I can still like other women? Tage, you really hurt me. I don't know if I can still fall in love with you in this life."
Married again."
Tag bit his lip and hummed softly: "You are a sharp-tongued person, but you are not a good person." Without saying much, he twisted his waist and walked away quickly with his round buttocks swaying.
In the next two days, Qin Xiao lived a very comfortable life. Yang Chiji would always bring delicious food to him on time, and would come over to say hello from time to time, appearing warm and respectful, as if he had forgotten that Qin Xiao had been tied up before.
Qin Xiao was thinking about Ximen Hao, Lu Xiaolou and his party. Naturally, they fell into the hands of Du Erlang Cavalry, and he didn't know what the situation was now.
However, Ximen Hao has some contacts with Du Er's army, and coupled with his identity as a businessman, he should be able to protect everyone.
He happened to take advantage of these two days to practice martial arts.
After breaking through to the fourth level, Qin Xiao practiced hard but never made any progress. However, Zhimingyuan and his party received a book from the master and understood the essence from "Yi Lun". They knew that when practicing internal skills, they should not have distracting thoughts.
, and the mind should not be placed on the internal energy meridians, but should be transformed into a part of the heaven and earth, completely compatible with the surrounding environment.
In the final analysis, it is to enter a state of selflessness and forget one's own existence when practicing.
This is easy to say, but not easy to do.
Human beings are made of flesh and blood and live in the world. It is not easy to forget the existence of oneself. This requires completely entering silence and feeling the surrounding atmosphere, so that one's spirit can be completely relaxed.
The breath moves and blends with the surrounding air of heaven and earth.
There is no space, no time, nothing but self.
Qin Xiao is extremely talented in martial arts. Even Hongye praised him. In this world, he is not afraid of not having a path, but he is afraid of taking the wrong path and choosing the wrong path. The harder he works, the further away from his goal he is.
Once you find the right path, everything will be easier with less effort.
Master's "Essays on Changes" actually led Qin Xiao to the correct path of cultivation.
Now that he is already on the road, what he needs is how to walk smoothly on this road.
When the whole body was completely relaxed and the feeling of the true body became weaker and weaker, Qin Xiao knew that his spiritual path was entering the path guided by his father and son.
With no worries about food and clothing, he practiced day and night. Two days passed in an instant. Tage did not appear during these two days, but Yang Chiji came very diligently. At dusk, Yang Chiji had people bring wine and meat again, and said to Qin Xiao with a smile:
"Dear guest, Tagge will leave early tomorrow morning. You can make preparations. If you need anything, you can tell me now. We also feed your mount with good horse feed. It is very impressive."
Qin Xiao and Tage relied on the lion Cong to escape death. This time they also rode the lion Cong back to the sweat tent. After two days of hard work, the lion Cong was very tired even though he was a great horse. Fortunately, he rested for a few days and got better.
The horses were supplied with feed and have recovered.
Qin Xiao had some regrets in his heart. When he retreated to the barren mountains that day, a lion was left behind, as well as two carts of goods, but he didn't know whose hands it would fall into.
"Qi Jin, how many troops are there to reinforce Uluolan this time?" Qin Xiao asked with a smile.
He knew that the sheep Chiji was very tactful, but he actually regarded Tag as a god.
"I don't know." Yang Chiji said simply.
"Will you go with us this time?"
Yang Chiji nodded and said: "Following Tage into battle is the most glorious thing." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone coming in from outside the tent and whispered a few words in Yang Chiji's ear. Yang Chiji's originally smiling expression
He immediately sank down, sneered, and turned to leave. When Qin Xiao saw this, he couldn't help but ask: "Qi Jin, what happened?"
"It's nothing serious." Yang Chiji did not neglect Qin Xiao. He turned around and said, "Durhu's envoys suddenly came over, and Tag was meeting them."
Qin Xiao immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Sure enough, we are here."
"Do the distinguished guests know that they are coming?" Yang Chiji was a little surprised, but Qin Xiao had already passed by him and said, "I will go with you to see the majesty of the Duerhu people."
Yang Chiji frowned, and Tag asked him to keep an eye on Qin Xiao and not let Qin Xiao sneak away. Qin Xiao rarely left the tent in the past two days, which made Yang Chiji feel at ease. At this time, he saw him leaving the tent.
, it was difficult to stop him, so he followed immediately.
The tent where Qin Xiao lived was not far from Tage's tent. Not long after walking, he saw a large group of people not far in front. Tage stood like a gun in his battle robes. Everyone's expressions were very solemn.
After Qin Xiao and Yang Chiji passed by, Tagg glanced at Qin Xiao and said nothing.
Qin Xiao is dressed like a shepherd at the moment. At first glance, he is just a member of the tribe. However, in the past two days, many people also know that Qin Xiao is a businessman from the Tang Dynasty. Tag can return safely. This Tang Dynasty businessman came out
He put in a lot of effort, so he didn't reject Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao looked up and saw a group of cavalry coming this way. More than thirty cavalry were sitting proudly on their horses and came straight towards Tagg. The first one was wearing armor, but next to him was a group of cavalrymen.
There is a middle-aged man in black robes with a long beard. His attire and felt hat are completely different from other wolf cavalry. The cavalry behind them are armed with swords and bows and are escorting a group of people towards this side.
There were more than 20 people being escorted, tied up with long ropes. All of them had their heads lowered, looking very depressed.
Ten steps away from Tagg, the wolf cavalry reined in their horses and stopped. Only the armored cavalry and the man in black robe continued to ride forward. They were four or five steps away and did not dismount. They looked down at everyone on horseback.
The man in the robe fell on Wu Qingtage and said calmly: "I am Ma Han, the official in charge of Du'er. Following the order of Captain Chadun, I came to question the Zhenyu tribe. I heard that Zhenyu Khan has passed away.
Who will make the decision about the True Feather Department now?" His tone was arrogant, and even when facing Wu Qingtage, he still had a condescending attitude.
The surrounding Zhenyu tribesmen all glared at each other, but everyone knew that the judge's status was not low, and the other party was from the Du'er Husband. Today, the Du'er Husband was unparalleled in the prairie, and no one could
Don't dare to provoke, even if the other party is rude, you still dare to get angry but dare not say anything.
"I am Zhenyu Wuqing." Tag said coldly: "The judge claims to be here to ask for a crime. I wonder what crime he is asking about?"
Ma Han looked Tage up and down, and said with a smile: "It is said that Zhenyu Tage is the most beautiful woman in Modong, and her reputation is indeed well-deserved. Zhenyu Tage, it is a pity that your great Khan died, but Zhenyu Department sent cavalry to attack
Do the warriors of our Duer Guards Camp, who killed the great Sun Khan, want to start a war with our Duer Guards?"
