Chapter 208

Previous Chapter

After running a few steps, his feet were soft, and Si Hongbo fell into the snow with a pop.

The medicinal power of the Soul Rejuvenation Pill gradually subsided, and the sharp pain in his body hit like a tide. He curled up on the ground in pain, gasping for air.

Fortunately, Jian Ying had already heard his shout, and was running towards this side quickly with Gumen and the others.

"General! It's late, you, are you okay? The shadow of the sword lifted him up, and when he saw that he was thinly dressed, he took off his own leather robe and put it on him.

Si Hongbo smiled bitterly, "I'm a little injured, but fortunately, it's okay." How did you find here? ”

Gumen was stunned and said, "Mo Hu brought us here and searched for three days, if it wasn't for the smoke rising from the bottom of the cliff yesterday afternoon, we would have given up continuing the search." ”

"Smoke?" Si Hongbo was stunned. He instantly thought that the leather robe on the county lord of Toya was missing, and she must have burned the robe to report the letter.

Descending with Sword Shadow and Lone Gate, there are also Toya and Batu's personal guards.

Toya's personal guard was called Uda, and Uda pushed open the lonely door, grabbed Si Hongbo's shoulder and asked, "Where is our county lord?" ”

Sword Shadow pulled Uda's hand away, "Be careful, didn't you see our general injured?" ”

Uda's eyes widened and he roared, "Where is our county lord?" ”

"What a roar!" Lone Gate glared at him.

Si Hongbo waved his hand and asked them not to quarrel first, and said to Wuda: "The county lord is fine, over there, I will take you there." Sword Shadow, help me up. ”

Jian Ying and Gumen helped Si Hongbo to stagger towards the cave where he was hiding.

When he was about to reach the cave, Haas, Batu's personal guard, had sharp eyes and saw the unburned leather robe on the ground at a glance.

"It's the robe of Lord Toya!" Haas rushed into the cave. Then he shouted: "Uda, I have found the county lord!" ”

Si Hongbo motioned for the sword shadow to stop. Not for a while. Uda walked out of the cave with Toya in his arms.

Haas looked at Si Hongbo coldly and pointed at Toya. "Why didn't you burn your own leather robe yesterday?"

Si Hongbo replied: "Now is not the time to talk about this, I will explain it to you when I get back to it." ”

He looked at Toya again, "How is the county lord?" ”

Wuda frowned, "The county lord is still in a coma due to the cold and high fever. ”

Arriving at the bottom of the cliff, Haas pulled the rope that hung down a few times, and after a few moments, lowered two large cowhide bags from the cliff.

Uda stuffed Toya into a leather bag and tied the leather cord around the bag tightly. Uda helped him tie the bag securely to his body.

The sword shadow was also concocted in the same way. When ready, Haas put his finger in his mouth and blew a loud whistle, and the person above got the signal and began to pull the rope upwards.

At the top of the cliff, Qiu Yue was holding Mo Qi, and behind him stood Dark Moon. A group of black-armored soldiers and warriors of the steppe tribes also waited.

Seeing the sword shadow and Uda showing their heads, everyone hurriedly stepped forward and dragged them up.

Si Hongbo was really relieved at this time, and finally came back alive!

On the way, he only found out after listening to Qiu Yue's narration. After he lured the wolf king away that night, the wolves were soon dispersed, and it was not until they came out of the Great Snow Mountain that they found that the general and the county lord were gone.

Batu ordered the steppe iron cavalry to escort Suhelek. On the other hand, he sent his own soldiers to look for them with Qiuyue.

However, a blizzard blocked the way into the mountains, and the weather did not clear until the morning of the third day. Hundreds of people followed the path they had come from. I just happened to meet Mo Hu who ran back.

The ink is extremely spiritual, and it leads everyone to the edge of the cliff. However, the snow covered all traces of what had happened, and Akizuki could only speculate that the two of them might have fallen off the cliff.

Because there are no suitable rescue tools. He had to send Batu's own soldiers to run quickly, and the rest searched around.

Qiu Yue said with palpitations: "The prince and the county lord fell from such a high cliff, and they can still hold on for so many days, it is really a manifestation of the sky!" ”

Si Hongbo nodded, but he didn't answer, he knew in his heart that if Toya hadn't saved him, he would have frozen to death even if he hadn't fallen to his death.

The next day, Toya woke up, and the first thing she asked was, "Is the general saved?" ”

Knowing that Si Hongbo was in the carriage behind, Toya's face glowed with a moving look. However, she didn't rush to visit Si Hongbo, but Si Hongbo sent Qiuyue over twice to ask about Toya's situation.

After a few days, they finally came to the capital of the steppe tribes.

The capital city was built on the bank of the Eleng River, which is rich in water and grass, and the whole city was built with black stone mined by the river, so it was called Black Stone City.

Batu had already gotten the news, and when he saw Toya get out of the carriage, he strode forward and gave her a hug.

"Fortunately, you came back safely, the queen mother has been worried these days."

Toya showed a lively smile in the past, "I am the county lord, the brightest pearl on the grassland, naturally blessed by the gods!" ”

Batu let go of her with a smile and nodded at Si Hongbo, who was limping over, "The general is frightened." ”

Si Hongbo smiled faintly and arched his hand: "Thanks to the rescue of the county lord of Toya, Bo will repay this favor in the future." ”

Batu's brow twitched slightly, and he looked at Toya with questions.

Toya laughed, "It's a trivial matter. Let's go, I haven't eaten the lamb cooked by the queen mother for several days, and I'm going to die of hunger! ”

After resting for three days, Si Hongbo regained his former spirit. He called on Suhelek and Batu to inquire about the withdrawal of the trade route.

Su Helek waved his hand, "General, don't be in a hurry. I have arranged the business route, and when your injuries have fully recovered, I will let Batu accompany you to inspect it. ”

Batu also smiled and said: "General, you are new to the grassland, you might as well enjoy the beautiful scenery of our grassland, taste the barbecue and wine, and set up a banquet in a few days to celebrate the alliance between the grassland and the Qi State." ”

So in the next few days, in addition to recuperating from his injuries, Si Hongbo was accompanied by Batu to wander around Black Rock City.

Suhelek held a grand banquet, if it were not for the mission, Si Hongbo and the others would definitely be intoxicated by the hospitality and rough and open-minded exotic customs of the grassland people.

After the banquet, Batu took a team of personal soldiers and accompanied Si Hongbo to inspect the various checkpoints along the road, and sure enough, as Suhelek said, except for a dozen guards in the checkpoints, the rest of the officials have been withdrawn.

It took more than a month to walk back and forth on the trade route across the grassland, and when I returned to Black Rock City, the grassland was already in full bloom.

Toya rode to meet them, dressed in a water-red gold-trimmed robe, looking pretty and heroic.

She rode to Batu's side, tilted her head to greet Si Hongbo, and two red glows flew up on her face unconsciously.
