The sky is dotted with stars, and the moon is gradually hanging on the branches,

Laughter and singing and dancing in the big tent,

Several of the girls in the tent danced briskly, like butterflies flying in the grass,

Crystal clear, smart and shimmering.

The Murwei people in the tent play musical instruments, beating beats,

Shaking his body to the rhythm of the girls' dancing,

Even if you're not dancing, you're already one with the dance steps in the field.

Lan Ziyi and the Tao brothers sat cross-legged at the table,

Drinking the mare's milk wine of the Murowei people, eating the mutton that has just come out of the pot,

The mutton is tender and delicious, and it also has a milky fragrance.

It is a real treat to pair with a sweet and sour mare's milk wine.

After a dance, the girls withdrew,

Then Kuo Kuo raised his glass and said:

"Come, let's have a toast for our friends from afar!"

As he spoke, he looked at Lan Ziyi,

Ziyi and the Tao brothers also filled up the wine and raised their wine glasses,

Amid the shouts of the crowd, everyone toasted together.

After that, Kuokuo filled another glass of wine and said:

"Second cup, let's have another toast for today's wonderful sheep catching competition!"

The crowd drank a full glass of mare's milk again.

Seeing that the atmosphere was warm, Lan Ziyi poured a glass of mare's milk wine and raised it to Kuokuo, saying:

"The third cup, for the hospitality of the chief and the hospitality of the Murowei people, come, have a drink!"

The crowd chanted again and toasted again.

Tao Zhutu wiped off the earliest remaining mare's milk wine, and said to Timoshenko, who was sitting opposite:

"You kid is a man, I'll give you a cup of peach and rabbit!"

At this time, Timoshenko no longer had the arrogance and invincibility he had when he first met everyone.

Seeing the peach and rabbit toasting, he also picked up the wine glass and saluted:

"You're a good rider, and I respect you as a man!"

The two of them drank the mare's milk wine in the cup, after which Timoshenko said:

"All three of you are good riders, except for him," he said, pointing at Lan Ziyi,

Lan Ziyi smiled slightly, took a sip of mare's milk wine, and nodded slightly to Timoshenge

Timoshenko went on to say:

"But he's a brilliant hunter, a true organizer! I thought I had won today, but he came back at the last minute. Here, a toast! ”

Lan Ziyi laughed when he heard this, and raised his wine glass to have a drink with Temoshenge.

Then Timoshenko asked:

"Hey! What should I call you? ”

兰子义 says:

"You can call me Ziyi."

"Ziyi?" "I have always had an opinion about the people of Middle-earth, one of whom has been overthrown today, and the other has been confirmed," Timoshenko reads. ”

Lan Ziyi smiled and asked:

"That perception has been overturned?"

Timoshenko replied:

"I always thought that the people of Middle-earth could not ride horses, but could only walk on two legs. Today I met the Middle-earth riders! ”

The crowd laughed.

After the laughter, Lan Ziyi asked again:

"Which one has been confirmed?"

Timoshenko smiled:

"I've heard that the people of Middle-earth are scheming, and today I can be considered to have learned!"

Then there was another burst of laughter, and Timoshenko asked:

"Ziyi! How did you come up with that? ”

Lan Ziyi tore off a piece of mutton and stuffed it in his mouth, and slowly explained while eating:

"At that time, you were almost at the top of the mountain, and if I wanted to win, I had to stop you from going up the mountain, and if I wanted to stop you from going up the mountain, I had to entangle you and your people first. Your rider has you in the middle, so I and the other two brothers approach you from three directions, so that Peach Hunt has room to outflank you. As long as you can outflank you, you will have a chance to stop you, and as long as you can stop, you will have a chance to grab the sheep. ”

At this time, one of the Murwei riders who had been making sheep together just now said:

"It's too dangerous to stop the horse so suddenly."

桃追兔 says:

"How can you turn defeat into victory if it is not dangerous?"

The crowd laughed again, and Timoshenko then asked:

"But that's not the point."

Lan Ziyi smiled:

"That's right! That's not the point, the point is that at the moment of grabbing the sheep, I was three people robbing you alone, and I turned my disadvantage into an advantage, but turned your advantage into a disadvantage. ”

Timoshenko asked:

"What do you mean by that?"

Lan Ziyi went on to say:

"You and I are equal in numbers, it is considered to be evenly matched, if you count my poor riding skills, and you and your riders have cooperated since childhood and often play with sheep, in fact, my side has a disadvantage, and there is no way to make up for the disadvantage in a short time. In this case, if I want to grab the sheep, I have to rely on other aspects to make up for the disadvantage, and all I can think of and use in a short period of time is the number of people. But you and I are equal in numbers, so I have to find a way to create a situation where the numbers are not equal. At the moment when the peach chase rabbit blocked the road, my riders and I were prepared, but you and your people did not, when you and your people were either chaotic or didn't stop and ran out, there were at least three people on my side staring at you at the same time, and at this moment you were hitting three. Of course, the most important thing is ......"

Saying that, Lan Ziyi took a sip of mare's milk wine, and after seeing that the attention of the audience was attracted, he continued:

"The most important thing is that I have just learned to ride a horse is the biggest disadvantage of my side, and this disadvantage cannot be concealed from you, an experienced Murwei rider, so when you saw that the front was outflanked, you sent the people who were supposed to defend me to the front, but this left me a chance, originally if I was alone, it would be impossible to snatch the sheep from you, but when you are alone, and at the same time you will be besieged on three sides at the moment you will move the sheep in your hand to the direction you feel safest, and that direction is me, You have no defense against me, and your attention is not on me, so even though I am not as skilled or powerful as you, I can mobilize far more resources than you in a moment, so I snatched the sheep and you knocked me down. ”

After saying that, Lan Ziyi and Temoshenge looked at each other and smiled, and then laughed, and everyone laughed together.

Timoshenko smiled:

"Ziyi, you are a cunning hunter in Middle-earth!"

As he spoke, he raised his glass,

Lan Ziyi raised his glass at the same time and said:

"I'm just doing what I can to achieve my goals, not cunning."

At this time, Kuokuo also raised his wine glass and said:

"Cheers to our cunning hunters, to the eagles of our steppe!"

So the crowd toasted again, and then laughed out loud.

Just as everyone was pushing the cups and changing the lamps, the outside of the tent gradually became noisy, and there were horses' hooves everywhere, and there were even shouts,

Kuokuo commanded:

"Go out and see what's going on!"

A man near the tent door lifted the curtain and was about to go out.

Suddenly, an arrow flew over, hitting the man's neck, and a sword sealed the throat.

Everyone was shocked, and then they heard a "whoosh" sound in the air,

Tao Zhuhu immediately reacted that it was a bow and arrow that came over, and shouted:

"Watch out for bows and arrows!"

While sweeping over the food on the table, raising the table to block Lan Ziyi, Tao Zhulu and Tao Zhutu also pulled out their waist knives to escort Lan Ziyi.

Then several arrows came from outside the tent, and they were all blocked, but someone had already thrown torches at the tent.

At this time, the noise outside the tent became louder and louder, and people screamed:

"There are horse thieves! Horse thieves have robbed the camp! ”

Then all the people in the tent understood,

Timoshenko grabbed his bow and arrows and rushed out first.

The people in the tent also took up arms and rushed out of the big tent one after another.

Lan Ziyi also rushed out of the tent under the protection of the Tao brothers,

When I got outside, I found that the situation was already very bad.

Almost the entire station was set on fire,

Between the darkness and the firelight, the shadows are crowded,

I can't see how many people are riding on horses, or throwing arrows with bows and arrows, or throwing torches.

The people of Murowe had just run out of their tents, and some of them shot arrows and fired back.

Others were cut to the ground,

And many women were swept up by the rushing riders.

Screams came and went, cursing and mocking, and the cries of children mixed together,

At this time, several of the Murwei men came on horseback and said to Kuokuo:

"Chief, I don't know where the horse thieves came from, it's dark and chaotic, I don't know how many people there are. Hurry up, boss, and let's kill them together! ”

At this time, Timoshenko stopped his father and said:

"Father, you can't go! Now that you're gone, the whole Son is gone, and it's all over! ”

Although it was the first time for Lan Ziyi to see such a cruel war scene, he was surprisingly quiet in his heart, not panicking, but a little excited.

After hearing Timoshenge's words, Lan Ziyi also stepped forward and said:

"Chief, you can't go! The horse thieves robbed the camp and caused chaos after the sneak attack, so they fished in troubled waters, if you are gone now, who will organize resistance? When the horse thieves find that there is no one to resist, the camp will become a camp! Although we have few people now, there is no problem in holding it, and the big tent is in the center of the tribe, as long as the leader stabilizes his position, and when everyone gathers, and the people of Murowei are brave and good at fighting, this gang of horse thieves will definitely be defeated! ”

After hearing the words of his son and Lan Ziyi, Kuokuo also said loudly:

"I'm broad, but I'm actually a person who escaped from the enemy? Men of Murowei! Let this group of horse thieves come and go! ”

When the people heard the order, they lit torches and formed a circle.

Someone took out a trumpet and blew it vigorously,

The sound of the trumpet passed through the fireworks and alarmed the whole tribe,

The people of Murowei, who heard the horn, took their weapons and slowly approached the direction of the big tent.

The Tao brothers also took the bow and arrow, and shot the horse thieves who walked between the tents.

Lan Ziyi was surrounded by the crowd, his two hands tightly grasping the short knife at his waist,

The battles around us are like pictures one by one,

There are horse thieves who fall off their horses after being hit by arrows, and there are Murowei warriors who are cut out by horse thieves' scimitars,

There is Timoshenko who yells and slashes people, and there is Kuokuo who commands his subordinates to fight,

There are also Tao brothers who are guarding by their side, blocking themselves with their bodies and constantly shooting arrows to fight back.

Slowly, the people of Murowei gathered more and more, and the accurate bows and arrows continued to shoot the horse thieves to the ground.

The brave warriors dragged the horse thief off his horse, and some simply rode on his horse to meet the horse thief.

Gradually, the horse thieves began to withdraw from the tribal station, and the Murowei people also gathered a combat force strong enough to fight.

At this moment, an arrow flew out of nowhere and hit Kuokuo,

Timoshenko roared and ran to his father's side,

Kuokuo endured the pain, holding the arrow in one hand and breaking the arrow feather with the other.

By the time everyone had lifted up the broad, the horse thieves had already plundered and fled.
