Chapter 161: The Five Banners of the Mongolian People

It is rumored that a few days ago, the night before Naadam Kaimu, two Han children in their teens who did not understand Mongolian had a fight with the people of the Black Flag Department on the grassland. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Among them, the younger boy's sword is even more powerful.

Aren't the two Han children depicted in the rumors exactly the two in front of you?

I think of the previous instructions handed down by the first khan to the Mongolian tribes, to find a ten-year-old Han boy on the border between Mongolia and Han.

……

After a period of controversy, the Mongolian men and women unanimously agreed that these two strange Han children were by no means ordinary, and they must not let them go.

So at this moment, after the Mongolian woman sneered, she immediately changed to a gentle smile and said softly: "It's not too early, the two little brothers are also hungry, let's go back quickly." ”

"Uh," Liu Shuangli didn't react for a while, squeezed Qin Siyang's hand, and looked at the Mongolian woman in a daze. It's strange that this blind woman's face has changed no matter how she says, and it turned too fast.

The Mongolian woman clapped her hands and blew a clear whistle from her mouth.

The whistle was clearer and more pleasant than that of the blinded man, but it was not loud enough. Therefore, only those within a radius of seven or eight paces of a Mongolian woman can hear it.

The horse, dressed in red sideburns, was within seven or eight paces of the Mongolian woman, so it listened unusually excitedly, raised its front hooves and neighed in response to the pleasant whistle.

The Mongolian woman took the reins of her horse and beckoned to the two children, smiling in her eyes, and motioned for them to follow her.

Liu Shuangli looked at it and was about to keep up. Qin Siyang tightened his arm strength at this time and pulled her.

"What's wrong, Siyang?" Liu Shuangli asked in a low voice.

The boy squinted at the Mengren woman and shook his head at Liu Shuangli.

Liu Shuangli nodded, understanding that the boy didn't want to go with the Mengren woman.

"But—" Liu Shuangli smiled bitterly, "we didn't have anything to eat." You have to eat something and prepare some dry food before you can do anything else. ”

The boy didn't reply, but he still looked unhappy.

Liu Shuangli smiled again: "Who told you to be in such a hurry last night, and you couldn't bring anything to eat." ”

The boy looked coldly ahead and said, "I don't like that Naadam." ”

"Hey?" Liu Shuangli was a little strange.

"It's a feast of the Mongols, what do we have to do. ”

Liu Shuangli smiled again: "Isn't everyone happy?"

The boy's face sank, and he whispered: "Listen to Han Tianming's meaning, the Naadam temporarily held by the Mongolian people this time is obviously to celebrate their tripartite peace agreement with the Great Zhou and Hui people, but in fact, it is to put the leaders of the Mongolian tribes under house arrest here. Therefore, now all the forces of the Mongolian people have gathered in this Bailing Temple. ”

Liu Shuangli was stunned for a moment, and said curiously: "So what." ”

Qin Siyang said coldly: "Now that Naadam is coming to an end, it is time to make trouble." ”

"What's ......" Liu Shuangli couldn't help but exclaim, she had never thought of these things, and she would never have thought of them at all.

Ahead, the Mongolian woman had already walked more than ten steps with the red horse, and when she saw that the two children did not follow, she was about to say a few words. Suddenly, Liu Shuangli exclaimed, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with the little brother." ”

Liu Shuangli was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's nothing." ”

The Mengren woman looked at Liu Shuangli, obviously not believing her words, and asked in a slow voice, "Is it really okay?"

Ignoring the Mengren woman's questioning, Qin Siyang tightened Liu Shuangli's hand, lowered his voice to the lowest, and said, "I want to escape from here in chaos." ”

Liu Shuangli was stunned again, and a pair of eyes as clear as spring water stared at Qin Siyang. Only then did she realize that the boy's choice to escape from the hole last night had been planned a long time ago.

But even if they want to escape, they have to eat to fill their stomachs.

Liu Shuangli tightened his eyebrows, and said secretly in his heart: Even if there is a plan, why don't you plan the food together?

"Siyang, aren't you hungry?" After a pause, Liu Shuangli frowned and smiled bitterly.

"Well, hungry. He nodded truthfully to the boy.

"Then let's go eat something with this Mongolian sister first, it's nothing, right?" Liu Shuangli said on the spot, while looking at the Mongolian woman and nodding to her.

Qin Siyang thought sideways, without nodding or shaking his head.

Seeing this, Liu Shuangli hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "If you want to take advantage of the chaos, you might as well go to the most chaotic place, right?"

Qin Siyang's eyes lit up when he listened, the corners of his mouth rose, and he nodded to Liu Shuangli.

Liu Shuangli immediately took the boy with his backhand, stepped forward, and apologized to the Mongolian woman: "I'm sorry, I made my sister wait for a long time." ”

The Mongolian woman chuckled: "It's okay, then let's go." ”

The yurts scattered on the grassland do not look far from the mountains, but they are quite far away from the real walk.

The Mongolian woman led the two children to step on the grass that had just grown, and walked all the way forward.

"What's my sister's name?" asked Liu Shuangli as he walked.

"My name is Sobud, and in Chinese it means pearl. The Mongolian woman replied.

"Pearl, that's a good name. Liu Shuangli blinked and smiled, "My name is Liu Shuangli, I don't mean anything special." His name is Xiao Yang, and it doesn't mean much. ”

Sobud's pair of almond eyes condensed slightly, and he looked at Liu Shuangli and said, "Shuangli? As far as I know Chinese, the meaning of this name doesn't seem to be very good." The parents of the little brother gave you this name because they came in the opposite direction, right? In the name of bad luck, they came to drive away disasters and bless the peace of life?"

"Well, no," Liu Shuangli shook his head and explained, "My name is actually called by everyone, and I am used to listening to it, so I don't care about its literal meaning anymore." As he spoke, Liu Shuangli briefly explained the origin of his name.

"Oh, I see. Sobud nodded understandingly, "The little brother was originally born as a bitter child, and it is not easy to go all the way to the present." ”

"It's nothing. Liu Shuangli replied lightly, looking up at Sobud, "My sister is so good, she can speak Chinese so fluently." ”

Sobud smiled: "It's actually nothing to be able to speak Chinese, most of the Mongolians here can speak a few words." ”

"Hey, yes," Liu Shuang said bizarrely, "there are really a lot of people here who can speak Chinese, and we met people who can speak Chinese on the first day we came to Mongolia, and we can often meet them later." Why is that?"

Sobud smiled: "Because we communicate with the Han people the most." ”

"Hey, is it communication?" Liu Shuangli opened a pair of big eyes, with deep uneasiness in his eyes, and said in his heart: This Mongolian sister will not say that the tragic war is also an exchange.

Sobud was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and then read her question from Liu Shuangli's uneasy expression.

"War is only secondary. "If you really want to talk about it, it's because we Mongols can't make many necessities of life, and so many things have to be obtained from you Han people. I have a lot of contact with you Han people up and down, so I have learned some Chinese. ”

Liu Shuangli seemed to understand a little, but he still couldn't help but wonder: "Why can't you make it yourself?"

Listening to Liu Shuangli's too innocent question, Sobud couldn't help laughing: "Speaking of which, little brother, how many things can you make?"

"Me?" Liu Shuangli was stunned, thinking that he couldn't even embroider and put shoes on ordinary women, he couldn't help but be embarrassed, and muttered after a long pause: "Although I don't know that, I won't go for this-um-robber." ”

Sobud's laughter was clearly mocking.

At this time, the three of them had approached the Mongol tribe. I saw a small group of Mongolian people dressed in uniform white ancient robes galloping in front of me, riding horses. When he saw them from afar, he cried out loudly, galloped to him, jumped off his horse, bowed to Sobud, and said something.

Sobud said a few words to the group of Mongolians in Mongolian, then turned back and waved to the two children, said sorry, and said no more, got on his horse, and galloped away to the Mongolian tribe.

The two children watched as Sobud rode away, at a loss for a moment.

One of the leaders of the Mongolian squad walked up to the two children, saluted them, and said in impure Chinese: "The county lord has left beforehand, two friends, please forgive me." ”

"County Lord?" both children were shocked.

Captain Mengren smiled and nodded, and without much explanation, turned to his team and commanded a few words. After a few words, the team members agreed and got on the horse and left.

The Mongolian captain invited the two children to rest and eat in a yurt.

In the meantime, Liu Shuangli asked about the grand meeting of Naadam, and the captain of the Mongolian people knew everything. But when asked about Sobud, their county lord, he was obviously reluctant to say more. When asked what tribe they were, the captain replied that it was a white flag.

White flag, what kind of flag is that? Liu Shuangli was a little curious.

The Mongolian captain explained: "We Mongolians now have five main flags: gray flag, blue flag, yellow flag, black flag and white flag. The five flags are marked by wolves, eagles, lions, bears, and tigers. ”

Liu Shuangli nodded, she and Qin Siyang also noticed that the white-robed Mengren was wearing a costume that they had seen in the parade when they first arrived at the Bailing Temple.

"Sobud, ...... her," Liu Shuangli asked.

"She is the daughter of our patriarch and the lord of our people. ”

Liu Shuangli thought about it for a while, and then tried to ask, "Does your county lord have a partner?"

Captain Mengren looked at Liu Shuangli suspiciously, and only after a while did he reply coldly: "Until now, no one is worthy of our county lord." ”

Hearing this, Liu Shuangli and Qin Siyang glanced at each other, and a strange thought arose in their hearts.

What is the relationship between this Lord of Sobud and the man she called China who left before?

Secretly selfish?

That doesn't seem like a good thing.

Looking at the slightly gloomy expression of the Mengren captain, Liu Shuangli didn't dare to ask more questions on this issue.

In the following conversation, Liu Shuangli was curious about Naadam's activities. This topic seems to be in line with the words of this Mongolian captain. The two chatted for a while. (To be continued.) )
