Chapter 62: To add insult to injury

"Hiss", as soon as the tent curtain opened, the cold wind poured in with snowflakes, and the three brothers and sisters couldn't help but shiver even more.

Two soldiers rushed in, then closed the tent door, patted the ice and snow on their bodies and scolded, "Damn, it suddenly snowed heavily and froze to death, at this time I should have drunk with my brothers outside to keep warm, but I was sent to guard these three sturdy rabbit cubs." What bad luck, bad luck! โ€

Another soldier swept the snowflakes off his shoulders with his left hand, held a jar of wine in his right hand and said, "Okay, okay, isn't there wine, let's put those thick clothes on them first." โ€

Qi Ge'er's eyes lit up, and his eyes were only staring at the soldier's arm who was complaining just now, because there were three pieces of clothing hanging on it, and he thought it was for them.

The soldier greedily glanced at the wine jar in the other party's hand several times, and finally walked up to Brother Ming, and when he saw his eyes staring at his clothes, he smiled proudly.

"I haven't been so frozen since I was a child, rabbit cub, if you are not honest, Lao Tzu will freeze you to death."

Qi Ge'er immediately thanked him, and the soldier said that he was very useful. Brother Ming pleaded: "Big brother, I don't need it, can you give my sister the clothes?" She's so weak that she's already frozen, and if she suffers from the cold, you'll have to work hard, and it will be even more troublesome. โ€

Brother Ming was about to say something, but was glared at by Brother Qi.

When the soldier heard this, he looked over, and saw that the little girl's head was drooping, and she was shaking, and she felt strange and pitiful when she looked at it.

He looked at the clothes in his hand, then at Brother Ming'er's body bones, hesitated for a moment and put the clothes on him.

"You kid feels sorry for your sister, she also has one, don't worry. You're still useful for the time being, and I'm not going to let you die. The soldier said in a vicious voice, and clothed them one by one.

When she came to Chenxi, she found that this little girl was really cold, and her skin was a little purple, she raised her chin, saw that her eyes were a little dilated, and she cursed something, took off one of her coats and put it on her, and then hurriedly ran to the fire that had been lit to keep warm.

"You kid is stupid, I can't kill you." Another soldier hurriedly handed him the hot wine.

The soldier took a big sip to get rid of the chill, and said proudly: "Lao Tzu grew up on the grassland, and he is still afraid of wind and snow? It's good to see that this kid will take care of his sister as an older brother, and I also have such a young daughter, she ......"

"Stop! It's not over when it comes to your daughter, anyway, His Royal Highness the Fifth said that you can't let them die, whatever you want. โ€

The soldier's words were interrupted, and he took a sip of wine full of regret, and was quite comfortable next to the fire.

There were clothes to warm the body, the fire kept the cold away, and the tent quickly warmed up. Qi Ge'er finally regained some composure, and his eyes flashed when he heard their conversation. Occasionally looking at the morning light, my body didn't seem to be trembling, so I was reluctant to let go.

Carefully calculated, they have been arrested for three days. I don't know what the family is going to do, so we must rescue them as soon as possible, otherwise, even if these steppe barbarians don't kill anyone, they will freeze to death.

It can be said that the sky is not beautiful, and the grassland at this time is simply frosty.

The three children had been tied up for so long and their hands and feet had stiffened, and Qi Ge'er was still waiting for the opportunity to intercede with the soldier and let him untie the rope of Dawn. He was not afraid of his own crimes, he just wanted his sister to be better, why not put down his body and beg an enemy soldier.

Although Brother Ming is usually naughty, he is a very smart person. Seeing that Qi Ge'er lowered his head and pondered, he guessed what the other party was planning, and he wanted to help but was afraid of bad things, and he was anxious.

In the end, it is a twin, and he can faintly sense the other party's feelings, Qi Ge'er raised his head and glanced at Brother Ming, signaling him not to worry.

On weekdays, Brother Ming felt that Brother Qi was just kicking him in his mother's stomach, and he crawled out for a while, so he rarely called him big brother. But if something happens that he can't solve, such as now, he relies on Brother Qi'er to find a way.

The two brothers made eye contact, but the two soldiers gulped their gulps of wine with a pleasant expression. But a small jar of wine was enough for them to drink, and it soon came to an end.

The two began to gossip, the sound of the wind and snow outside whirring, and they were not afraid of being heard by casually guessing the current situation.

One of the soldiers glanced at them and asked, "Brother, you said that with these three little kids, we can really force the big brother back?" Now most of the entire grassland is the territory of the big brother, and I think it is suspenseful. โ€

The other soldier, the one who dressed the three children, seemed rude, but he had a better heart than the others. He glanced at Brother Qi'er suspiciously, lowered his head and stirred the fire and said, "If you think about it so much, just obey the command of His Highness." โ€

The soldier wanted to say something, but was blocked by the other party's words. "Look, the firewood is almost burned out, brother, you go and pick up some firewood and come back to add fire, I don't know when this snow will fall."

"Why don't you go?"

The kind soldier motioned for him to look at the thick clothes covering Dawn, then pointed to the leather armor he was wearing, and cracked his mouth and smiled.

The soldier had nothing to say, so he had to resign himself to getting up and go out to hug the firewood, muttering something in his mouth as he walked, and his expression was extremely unhappy.

The tent door was opened, and a cold wind rushed in. The kind-hearted soldier hurriedly ran over and pulled it up, walked back to the fire, and saw that Qi Ge'er and Ming Ge'er looked very similar, so they sighed that twins were really rare.

However, he took away his companions, but he didn't want to study the appearance of the two, so he asked in a humble voice, "What do you two rabbit cubs want, why do you keep peeking at Lao Tzu?" โ€

The soldier's act of putting on one more piece of clothing for Chenxi just now made Brother Ming quite impressed, and when he heard this, he blurted out, "Look at you, you are handsome, mighty, righteous, compassionate, you are really a good man!" I have admired heroes the most since I was a child, and now that I meet them, of course, I have to take a few more looks. โ€

The corners of Brother Qi'er's mouth twitched, and he looked at his younger brother with admiration, and he could praise an enemy soldier without changing his face, which shows the depth of his skills behind his face.

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and then raised his head triumphantly. However, he may have seen too many flamboyant people, and it didn't take long for him to calm down.

"Hmph, no matter how much you say, don't use your brains and stay honest."

Brother Ming raised his eyebrows helplessly and looked at his eldest brother, he had already warmed up, and there was nothing he could do about it.

Qi Ge'er estimated that the other soldier was about to return, so he looked sideways at Chenxi, and then pleaded with the kind soldier with an anxious face, "Big brother, can you put my sister down?" On such a snowy day, it is dangerous for adults to be outside, not to mention that my sister is young and weak, and there are heavy guards around, so she can't escape. โ€

At the end, he added, "If you don't feel at ease, then continue to tie us up, and just let my sister go." โ€

The soldier was already a little pitiful little girl of the morning sun, and he also sneered at what they said about running away, just these three delicate and expensive little children were not at all comparable to the dolls on the grassland. So, I hesitated for a while.

Brother Ming and Brother Qi glanced at each other, and continued to plead, "Big brother, please, how can girls compare with gentlemen, my brother and I have some broken silver, you take it to exchange some wine with those brothers who are in charge of wine, it can be regarded as me and my brother Brother Xie to help, okay?" โ€

When the soldier heard this, he was overjoyed. Since most of the grassland was collected, their Great Khan was in a panic all day long, and always reminded them of the spirit of the twelve, and this wine could not be drunk freely, for fear of making a mistake, or it would snow heavily today to give such a jar, all of them were grassland children, how could a jar of wine be enough for two people?

Thinking like this, he happily rubbed his palms and found two ingots of silver on Qi Ge'er and Ming Ge'er, which were twenty taels.

The soldier had never seen so much silver, and he was not polite, he stuffed it directly into his arms, and then walked to Chenxi and untied the rope, Chenxi's body immediately collapsed, and the soldier hurriedly hugged her, put her on the haystack, and finally covered her tightly.

It's just that when he was covering his clothes, he accidentally touched Chenxi's forehead, and found that the girl seemed to have a high fever, and in order to confirm, he touched Chenxi's red cheeks on both sides with his calloused palms.

The temperature and experience told the soldiers that this was 100% a high fever, and it was still very cold when she was clothed just now, so it must have warmed up the tent and clashed.

When the two brothers saw that the soldier was touching their sister, they struggled hard and said angrily, "Hey, what are you doing!" Take your dirty hands away! โ€

The soldier thought that this man was about to burn and dazed, and that he must report to the Great Khan to find someone to heal, so he quickly stood up and said to them, "What are you screaming about, the little girl has a high fever, and she will die in the evening of this heavy snowfall." You all be honest with Lao Tzu, and I'll go and report the Great Khan. โ€

After saying that, he didn't care that he was not wearing thick clothes but only leather armor, so he ran directly into the wind and snow towards the tent of the Fifth Highness.

As a result, there were only three siblings left in the tent, two of them were tied up, and one was burned in a daze.

"Sister!"

"Dawn!"

The two brothers kept calling out to their sister who was lying on the grass, hoping to wake her up. When they were at home, their baby sister was sneezing, everyone was worried, ginger soup, pear water, and she didn't dare to relax if she didn't persuade her to drink two bowls. But now that he has a high fever, he was thrown on the grass, and his clean face was stained with a lot of dirt, how could a wolf bรจi describe it.

said that it was a manly husband who bleeds without tears, but Brother Ming was so anxious that his eyes were wet, and he struggled many times and couldn't break free from the hemp rope on his body, but wore his wrists and ankles more tightly.

Brother Qi saw it and hurriedly shouted: "Brother Ming, don't get excited! We have to calm down and think of a way, the righteous brother will definitely come to save us, even if we can escape in this weather, it is dangerous, but it is safer here. They arrested us to threaten our brother-in-law, and they won't let us have an accident until they achieve their goal, after all, they can't bear the anger of our brother-in-law when we have an accident, and the gains outweigh the losses! โ€

Brother Ming heard his brother say this, but he stopped struggling, just clenched his fists tightly, his head hung down and he endured his anger, if something happened to Chenxi, he swore that he must... We must break the corpse of that Fifth Highness into ten thousand pieces! R638
