Chapter 939: A long-lost
readx;?“ Not...... No! The cavalry saw that the Great Khan was already furious at this time, and only that he could not escape death today, and his tongue was knotted in fright. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Sheng Heng held back his anger and said: "What happened behind that, you have to escape back like this." ”
"Because before the prostration, we were told that the area near the Stygian Lake where she was going was the place where the bone loss disease originated. We must not come near without her signal. The cavalryman bowed his head and said, "Because everyone knows how terrible this osteopathy is, and the prostrations have been spent many days in a village full of sick people, we all think that she is the one who is protected by the gods." Naturally, I was convinced of what she said. ”
"So you guys don't care what's going on inside and run back first?" Sheng Heng threw the horsewhip to the ground and slammed it hard: "But don't you know that she is just a woman who doesn't know martial arts?" She can't even pull a bow and arrow, how can a person like her save herself when she is in danger? ”
The cavalrymen looked at each other, and after a moment of awkward silence, they said: "Great Khan, it's not that we don't save the prostration, it's not that we don't have faith, it's really that the situation at that time was too terrible. ”
"We didn't wait long before we heard a loud sound coming from the direction of the Styx, and it was like the terrible screams of several women together, not to mention how terrible. We wanted to go and see, but there was no sign to prostrate and worship, and we did not dare to approach rashly, but just as we hesitated, we saw the fire near the Styx, and we immediately rushed to the place where the fire was on fire, but the fire was so evil that it spread very fast, and as soon as it saw us coming, the fire rushed towards us......"
Hearing this, Shengheng slammed his fist on the table beside him. He blamed himself for why he didn't think that when Yun Yang mentioned the record four hundred years ago, she said that she also thought that there was an uncontrollable fire at that time, which was incredible, and now it seems that it was because the fire was too strange and burned extremely fast.
But he hated why he hadn't thought about it more in the first place, preparing a retreat plan for Yunyang after the fire got out of control, and if he had such preparations, he wouldn't have come to this point. These days, I always think about how to stay with her for a while, but I don't want to think more about her, and the trip to the Styx is so dangerous that she is planning alone.
At this time, some cavalrymen saw that Shengheng's face was pale, and they were afraid that the Great Khan would blame them, so they had the courage to defend themselves: "Great Khan, I don't know. There are many strange legends about this Styx, the most popular of which is that there is a woman's resentful spirit on the lake......"
When the people next to him saw Shengheng suddenly glaring at him with a cold look, they knew that this cavalryman had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly tugged at his clothes to make him shut up.
This man was quite clever, and immediately swallowed the words, not daring to make a sound again.
Sheng Heng ignored them, and just said to the servant, "Prepare a horse for me, and pick a team of elite soldiers to wait for me at the exit intersection." I'm going to Lake Styx! ”
The servant immediately bowed his head and said, "Yes, Great Khan, go and do it immediately." ”
But before leaving, he whispered, "If the Great Khan wants to go out, what should everyone kneeling here do?" ”
Shengheng said without raising his head: "All the kneeling people here have been removed from their official positions, and he will be released to put camels in the sand dunes fifty miles away from the tribe." ”
The servant raised his eyes and swept the hundred people kneeling on the ground, and said respectfully to Shengheng, "Yes." ”
By the time he said this, Shengheng had already lifted the curtain and walked out.
To his surprise, there were already a lot of Akatani magnates standing outside, all of whom craned their necks to look into the tent. After all, someone had returned from the Styx, bringing news that it had been burned to the ground.
Before Yunyang set off, the magnates already knew that the purpose of her trip was to completely eliminate the bone loss disease. It is said that this terrible disease comes from the Styx, and only by burning it can this terrible disease be completely eliminated.
Because the ravages of osteopathy in Akatani have made it a common enemy of the Akatani people, this time, whether it is for or against Shengheng, they all put aside their prejudices and consciously gather at the gate of the leopard god's tent.
They wanted to go into the tent to inquire about the news, but as soon as they arrived at the door, they heard that Shengheng was furious. After exchanging glances, they speculated whether it was the unsmooth progress of this line that made the Great Khan so annoyed.
But after hearing this, these people knew that there was a raging fire in the Styx. They secretly thought to themselves, since it had been burned to ashes, would the source of the osteopathy mentioned before the prostration be completely eliminated? So, in order to wait for an exact news, they refused to leave, and waited for Shengheng to appear.
Their minds, how can Shengheng not know. Although Shengheng was anxious at this time, he had to suppress his anger and explain as patiently as possible: "The prostration sacrifice has successfully completed the task, and all the things that poisoned the people on the edge of the Styx Lake have been destroyed. You can rest easy this time. ”
When the Akatani magnates heard Shengheng's words, they were all relieved and cheered loudly.
They rushed up excitedly, trying to pick up Shengheng and throw him up to celebrate. But how could Shengheng be in such a mood now, he decisively shook his head and refused, but people's enthusiasm has risen, how can it be suppressed so easily.
Even if Shengheng was not willing to participate, these magnates themselves were happy to sing and dance first.
Everyone is dead, and sick relatives and friends are saved, who can not be happy? So, they didn't care about the frosty Ascension standing aside, laughed and danced with each other, and rushed to the square place in the tribe lively.
Some of the people of Akatani, who had not received the news, heard the laughter outside the tent and came out to see what was happening. After learning the news that the osteopathy had been eliminated, the gloom and misery on his face were swept away, and they all walked forward with the carnival team with joy.
In this way, the team grew stronger and stronger, and the tribe, which had been silent for many days, returned to its former liveliness.
Shengheng looked at the crowd in the distance, listening to the waves of singing and whistling, and suddenly felt more and more sad.
He turned silently, took the reins from the servant, and flew on his horse.
Just as he was about to leave, the servant handed over another bulging bag of dry food: "Great Khan, the matter is urgent, I didn't have time to prepare more, this is all in the kitchen." ”
Shengheng nodded, didn't say much, took the package, and put it on the horse's back. Then he stepped off his mount with a long hiss, leaped on all fours, and rushed out at a gallop in front of him.
