The story that the Zhu family is the descendant of the God of Fire has been circulating for a long time, and people among the barbarians firmly believe this, which is why the Zhu family can dominate the barbarian tribes. Logically speaking, since they are descendants of the God of Fire, they should all be regarded as the God of Fire.
The descendant is, but in fact it is not the case. The God of Fire is the patron saint of the barbarians, and his position in the hearts of the barbarians is irreplaceable. The descendant of the God of Fire is the spokesperson of the God of Fire in the world, and can exercise supreme power in the place of the God of Fire.
Therefore, there can be many descendants of the God of Fire, but there can only be one descendant of the God of Fire, not even one. And no one has stipulated that the successor of the God of Fire must be a member of the Zhu family, but everyone takes it for granted,
Since the Zhu family is a descendant of the God of Fire, it is easier for the descendants of the God of Fire to appear in the Zhu family.
Since Zhu Rong is the descendant of the God of Fire, she can have supreme power among the barbarian tribes, although she has never exercised such power. The reason why Zhu Rong is considered to be the descendant of the God of Fire is just because of the Zhu family legend that she was born
At that time, the room was filled with red light. As for what the scene was like at that time, outsiders naturally had no way of knowing. Everything was reported by the Zhu family. This became the breakthrough point for Meng Huo to question the identity of Zhu Rong, the successor of the Fire God.
After listening to Meng Huo's words, all the clan leaders were doubtful, but one person was unmoved, and that was Wutu Bone. Wutu Bone was convinced that Zhu Rong was the successor of the God of Fire, or he was not willing at all.
To doubt. Wutu Gu is more willing to believe that Zhu Rong saved her life and that of the three thousand vine armored soldiers. If Zhu Rong was not the descendant of the God of Fire, would it be necessary for her to save the lives of these people? Maybe because of Zhu Ding
She was seriously injured, and she hated herself and others for not being able to do it in time.
Wu Tu Gu glanced at Meng Huo with disdain and asked: "Everyone in the entire barbarian tribe doesn't know that Mrs. Zhu Rong is the descendant of the God of Fire. Since Patriarch Meng knew that this was a lie from the Zhu family, why didn't he tell it earlier?
Come out, don’t tell her until it’s too late, but why do you want to tell her when she is protecting her people?”
These words touched on Meng Huo's pain point. Of course he couldn't say this in the past. If he married Zhu Rong, that is, married the descendant of the God of Fire, then he would be the well-deserved king among the entire barbarian tribe, and
How could he jump out and accuse Zhu Rong of not having any magical power at all?
After hearing Wu Tu Gu's rhetorical question, Meng Huo hesitated for a moment and then said bravely: "I'll just say one thing. Since Zhu Rong is the descendant of the God of Fire, has anyone seen her use her magical power? Maybe she doesn't have other magical powers.
, but it shouldn’t be a problem to make a fire without using tools?”
As soon as these words came out, A Kuai murmured, and the three knots of the golden ring began to whisper. Wu Tu Gu snorted coldly: "Meng Huo, you are forcing someone to do something difficult!"
Meng Huo saw that Wu Tu Gu was following his own tricks and couldn't help but press forward: "What's the point of forcing others to do this? She is the descendant of the God of Fire, so she should have this ability. Otherwise, what is the difference between the descendant of the God of Fire and ordinary people?"
After a pause, Meng Huo continued: "I only mention two conditions. If Zhu Rong can do it, I will respect her as the queen of the barbarians."
Wu Tu Gu said in a deep voice: "Okay, can you tell me what the two conditions are?"
Meng Huo sneered and said: "First, she wants to show the power of the descendants of the God of Fire. Second, she wants to convince Liu Xin to allow the barbarians in the five counties of Nanzhong to establish their own country. If she can do these two things, I will not only respect
As a queen, she also wants to capture Liu Dan, Yong Kai, and Gao Ding with her own hands and offer them to her feet!"
As soon as he said these words, all the clan leaders looked at each other in confusion. Not to mention whether Liu Xin would listen to Zhu Rong and agree to let the barbarians establish a country on their own. If she only asked Zhu Rong to show his divine power, she might not be able to complete it.
Wu Tu Gu was stunned for a moment and said: "Meng Huo, you have made it clear that you want to fight Liu Xin to the end? You, the Meng family, are just going to die on your own, do you still want to drag everyone into the water?"
Meng Huo laughed loudly and said, "Whether or not you want to continue fighting with Liu Xin is a matter for later. We should find out first whether that girl from the Zhu family is a descendant of the God of Fire, lest you all be bewitched by her. Humph!"
After saying that, Meng Huo shook his sleeves, turned around and left the camp.
In the Han army's tent, Liu Xin had just sat down when he saw Guo Jia passing by outside the tent door. He knew that he had something to discuss with him, but it was difficult for him to speak because Zhu Rong was nearby, so he turned around and said: "Rong
Son, there is no fighting today, you have time to visit your sisters, I don’t know if they are used to being in the military camp."
Zhu Rong went to Liu Xin's side, curled his lips and said, "They have suffered a lot since childhood and are used to it wherever they go. What's so good about them?"
Liu Xin's face sank, and she patted her plump buttocks gently, and said: "There are all men in the military camp. It's very inconvenient for them here. As a sister, you should be concerned about it."
They, it’s good to chat with them.”
Zhu Rong stood up reluctantly, pouted and said: "They are only a little older, what do I have to talk about with them?"
Although she was reluctant, Zhu Rong still walked out of the tent door and walked to Zhu Yan and his friends' tent. In fact, that tent was originally where the five of them lived together, but she always relied on Liu Xin's help.
He just refused to go back inside the tent.
Guo Jia, who was hiding not far away, saw Zhu Rong walking out, quickly slipped into the tent, raised his hands towards Liu Xin and said, "My lord, it's really not easy to see you alone now."
Liu Xin smiled and said, "Come on, Feng Xiao, sit down and tell us, have you found a way to deal with the Meng family?"
Guo Jia sat down opposite Liu Xin, took out the defense map from his pocket, spread it on the table, pointed to the camp in the middle and said: "My lord, my subordinates believe that the only way to defeat the Meng family is to attack with fire."
!”
Liu Xin frowned and said: "The Meng family's camp is in the middle. If we attack with fire, other camps will come to rescue. It is really not easy to completely annihilate the Meng family."
"My subordinates put the fire not at the Meng family, but at other camps. When the time comes, all the camps will be on fire. They have too much time to take care of themselves, so how can they save the Meng family." Guo Jia said with a smile, "
Lord, please see, there is a forest behind the Meng family's camp. This forest is a barrier behind the Meng family's camp, but it also separates the Meng family's camp from the several camps behind it. To his left is Lu Kai's
At the camp, the lord can have people sneak into Lu Kai's camp and the woods behind to ambush him, and agree on a time. When a fire breaks out in Meng's camp, and they suddenly come out, Meng Huo can be captured with a single blow."
When Guo Jia said this, he raised his head and glanced at Liu Xin and said, "It's just that those who are lurking and those who set fire need to be very smart and cautious, but this is a bit difficult to handle."
Liu Xin stood up, walked back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back, and said decisively: "Fengxiao, although your move is a bit risky, it is worth a try. You don't have to worry about these candidates, I will consider them myself."
.”
Suddenly, there was a burst of silver-like laughter from outside the tent. Guo Jia stood up in a hurry and said, "I think Mrs. Zhu Rong is back, so I'll take my leave first."
Liu Xin shouted repeatedly: "Wait a minute, take this picture away."
Only then did Guo Jia realize that the defense map was still spread out on the table. He quickly rolled it up and stuffed it into his sleeve. Then he bowed his hands to Liu Xin sheepishly and bowed out.
Because it was daytime, Liu Xin's tent door was not lowered. He only saw a flash of red shadow, and Zhu Rong had walked in. Liu Xin asked in surprise: "Why are you back so soon? Where are they?"
"Everyone has already said that I have nothing to say to them." Zhu Rong sat down, looked at Liu Xin and smiled slyly, and said, "Oh, I understand, you asked me to see if they are fake, thinking about it
They are true. They will all be yours sooner or later anyway, so why are you so impatient? Didn’t you tell me that you have to keep quiet at night recently and can’t do that? "
Liu Xin said angrily: "Where do you want to go? I heard laughter outside the tent and thought you had brought them all over, so I asked."
Zhu Rong took Liu Xin's hand, snuggled into his arms, and said softly: "Brother, I don't mind which one of them you want first. They really wanted to follow just now, but let me catch up."
If you run away, you won’t blame me?”
Liu Xin was still thinking about how she wanted to clear out the Meng family without telling her. She felt somewhat guilty, so she casually put her arm around her shoulders and said, "Rong'er, there's something I want to tell you..."
Suddenly, a soldier outside the auditorium said loudly: "To inform my lord, someone from Nanzhong has sent a letter of war. Please make your decision!"
Zhu Rong took a breath and said: "Brother, my tribe is really endless and makes you upset."
Liu Xin's heart moved, and she stroked her hair and said, "It doesn't matter whether I'm annoyed or not. It's just that this war lasts for a long time. The soldiers will inevitably be tired, and the daily consumption is also very huge..."
Zhu Rong interrupted him and said: "Brother, I also heard that fighting requires a lot of money. Are you out of money? If you are out of money, sell all my silver jewelry."
Liu Xin laughed and said, "Silly girl, that's a gift I gave you, are you willing to sell it?"
Zhu Rong waved his hands repeatedly and said with a blushing face: "That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about my dowry."
Liu Xin was so moved that she couldn't help hugging her tighter and said, "How much can you sell those things for? Haha, if I can't even raise this little money, how can I support this big family?"
.I am worried not only about consumption, but also about the livelihood of the people near the battlefield. I took a look today and found that many people have left their crops rotting in the fields to avoid the war, and no one cares about them. It will be difficult for them this winter!"
Zhu Rong was thoughtful, silent for a moment and said: "Brother, did I make things difficult for you? If you weren't worried about hurting my people, you would have ended this war long ago?"
In fact, Liu Xin just wanted to lead Zhu Rong to think in that direction. After all, the matter of completely clearing out the Meng family would have to be hidden one day, so it was better to let Zhu Rong accept such a result. Liu Xin saw Zhu Rong's thoughts gradually
He was led to the key point by himself, but he did not tell the truth immediately. Instead, he smiled and said: "Let's not talk about this for now, let's see what new tricks Meng Huo has played?"
