Due to the cold night, in fact, Zhao Hongrun returned to the huge bonfire again, but at that time, Qin Shaojun and his guards had already left there.

There was a bonfire roasting there, and Zhao Hongrun sat on the ground against those horizontal logs, and finally stayed up until dawn.

When Zhao Hongrun returned to the camp of the Qingyang tribe of the Zong tribe again, the men and women of the Zong tribe got up almost one after another.

The men prepare all the utensils they need for the day's hunting, while the women begin to prepare breakfast and bake lamb cakes in a simple stove.

During this period, an enthusiastic middle-aged woman noticed Zhao Hongrun, who came to smell the fragrance, and handed him a piece of fragrant mutton cake and a bowl of hot goat's milk.

Tearing up the sheep cake and throwing it in the goat's milk, or using the sheep cake to dip it in the goat's milk to eat, this is actually the most daily thing of the Qiang people.

Speaking of which, when Zhao Hongrun was in Wei, he had actually seen the Chinese people bake similar cakes, but those cakes seemed to be unfermented, and they were hard like stones after being cold, and although the sheep cakes of the Qiang nationality were still harder than the big cakes in Zhao Hongrun's memory, it was undeniable that these sheep cakes were much better than those in Wei, especially after being soaked in goat's milk, they tasted excellent.

After eating, Zhao Hongrun expressed his gratitude to the woman of the Qi tribe, and immediately returned the same way according to the route in his memory.

When he returned to the small tent of his sixth uncle, Zhao Yuanyan, Zhao Hongrun found that the unknown woman of the Zong tribe had already left last night, probably to prepare food, after all, in the Zong tribe, men are responsible for grazing and hunting, while women are responsible for preparing food.

Seeing this uncle of the six kings who was sleeping on the sheepskin blanket with his chest exposed, Zhao Hongrun had a deep resentment in his heart.

I want him to be a king. It's the first time in the past fifteen years that I've stayed out overnight, and I don't even have a place to rest from the wind, and I've been frozen all night, and all of this is thanks to the shameless Uncle Liuwang in front of him, who would talk to a woman in front of him.

At this moment, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but feel an impulse in his heart. I can't wait to lift the sheepskin blanket wrapped around this Uncle Six Kings so that he can also taste the taste of freezing.

It's a pity that just as Zhao Hongrun was preparing to put this malicious idea into action and tiptoed over, his Sixth Uncle opened his hazy eyes very vigilantly and glanced at Zhao Hongrun.

"It's Hongrun."

I have to say that the uncle of the six kings, Zhao Yuanling, is worthy of staying in the wilderness every Chinese New Year's Eve, dealing with poisonous snakes and beasts, and even living in the home of a stranger who is completely unfamiliar. This vigilance is truly extraordinary.

"Whoa!"

Seeing that the sixth uncle sat up, looking a little tired and rubbing the acupuncture points on his forehead with his hands, Zhao Hongrun secretly said, "Missed the opportunity for revenge."

"Huh?" Zhao Yuanli, who gradually came to his senses, glanced at his nephew, who was dressed a little embarrassed, and asked strangely, "Hongrun, where did you go last night?" ”

Zhao Hongrun snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "Thanks to the sixth uncle, I stayed up by the campfire in the camp yesterday. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Zhao Yuanyan looking Zhao Hongrun up and down with strange eyes. Incomprehensibly, he asked, "Didn't Amutu's youngest daughter invite you?" ”

"Uncle Sixth thinks that I feel like a ......" said halfway. Zhao Hongrun was stunned and asked in surprise: "Yesterday, the girl of the Zong tribe was the youngest daughter of the patriarch Amutu?" ”

"yes." Zhao Yuanli shrugged, stood up and put on her clothes, and said with emotion: "When the sixth uncle visited the Qingyang tribe for the first time, she looked like she was just a dirty little girl. Tsk, this is a big change when you grow up......" After that, he glanced at Zhao Hongrun with a strange expression, with a regretful look of "you missed the opportunity".

Zhao Hongrun rolled his eyes speechlessly, suddenly. As if he had thought of something, he asked, "By the way, Sixth Uncle, I heard that the reason why the Wei people in Longxi have a grudge with the Qin people is because the Wei people in Longxi pretended to be the Qiang people and attacked the villages of the Qin State in an attempt to provoke a conflict between the Qin State and the Qiang people, right?" ”

"......" Zhao Yuanyan paused while he was getting dressed, frowned, looked back at Zhao Hongrun a few times, and asked suspiciously, "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Sixth Uncle don't ask me who I listened to, tell me if this is the case."

"......" Zhao Yuanli stared at Zhao Hongrun for a moment, then frowned and said, "Yes, there is indeed such a thing." After that, he added: "The sixth uncle once persuaded the royal family of Longxi, telling them that this plan was too dangerous, and once it failed, not only could it not end the war between Longxi and the Qiang people, but also set up an unnecessary enemy like the Qin state." But unfortunately, the royal family of Longxi did not follow my advice. …… I also found out afterwards that they carried out the plan behind the back of the sixth uncle and me. ”

"Sure enough."

Zhao Hongrun was stunned when he heard this, shook his head and sneered and said, "It's really self-inflicted." …… Sixth Uncle, why do you think we have to clean up the mess for those people? ”

"Because it's the same clan." Zhao Yuanyan smiled helplessly and put on his robe: "Let's go, today is the day of hunting." ”

"Hmm." Under the urging of Zhao Yuanyan, Zhao Hongrun came out of the small tent.

Looking at Zhao Hongrun, who bent down and walked out of the small tent in front of him, a trace of surprise flashed in Zhao Yuanyan's eyes, and he muttered to himself: "In this campsite...... Could it be that Hongrun met the Qin people last night? That's a ......."

"Sixth uncle? What did you just say? Zhao Hongrun, who was walking in front, seemed to hear something, and turned back in surprise and asked.

"Huh? Oh, nothing. ”

Zhao Yuanyan smiled slightly and followed Zhao Hongrun.

Although Zhao Hongrun had already eaten breakfast, he also accompanied the sixth uncle to drink some goat's milk.

And while they were eating, the guards of the Sixth Prince's Uncle Zhao Yuanyan, as well as Zhao Hongrun's guards, came over one after another.

Somehow, Zhao Hongrun always felt that his group of Zongwei eyes were a little evasive and a little restrained.

"What's wrong, Shen Yu?"

Zhao Hongrun asked his sect guard chief curiously.

I saw Shen Yu's face staggered, and he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

At this time, a group of girls from the Qingyang tribe of the Qing tribe walked past them, among which several girls looked at Shen Yu and the others, laughing and playing with each other, and there were even a few bold girls. looked at Shen Yu and the others with eager eyes.

Zhao Hongrun found at that time that the expressions of Shen Yu, Lu Mu, Wei Jiao and others had become extremely embarrassing, while Mu Qing, Gao Kuo and others were actually more introverted, and their faces were even more red at the moment, only Chu Heng, who was more honest, was full of smiles at the moment. Smirking, I don't know what I'm laughing at.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun still didn't understand anything, looked at Shen Yu with a strange gaze, and teased: "Not a bad night, right?" ”

I saw Shen Yu's face full of embarrassment, and he explained in a loud voice: "Your Highness, no, it's not what you think." ”

"How's that?" Zhao Hongrun teased.

"Uh......" Shen Yu, Lu Mu and the others were suddenly speechless.

See here. Zhao Hongrun secretly sighed in his heart: He, the Zongwei brothers, may have a much more nourished time last night than him.

"What a passion, the girls of the Qingyang tribe."

Just when Zhao Hongrun was secretly snickering at the restrained appearance of Shen Yu and the others, suddenly, the girl from the Qingyang tribe of the Qi tribe who teased him at dinner last night, the youngest daughter of the patriarch Amutu in the mouth of Zhao Yuanyan, the sixth prince's uncle, ran to Zhao Hongrun's group of people out of nowhere, and stood in front of Zhao Hongrun. glared at Zhao Hongrun angrily, and muttered a large number of languages that Zhao Hongrun did not understand.

Because of the language barrier. Zhao Hongrun had no choice but to ask for help from Zhao Yuanyan, the sixth uncle who knew the language: "Sixth uncle, what is she talking about?" ”

I saw Zhao Yuanli swallow the mutton cake that was being chewed in her mouth, and said with a smile: "She's asking you, why didn't you go to her last night." After that, he deliberately added: "She waited until you were late, and rejected several suitors for this." ”

"This thing......

looked at the brave girl of the Qiang tribe in front of her who was full of anger. Zhao Hongrun scratched his head, and said to Zhao Yuanling with a wry smile: "Sixth uncle, please tell her that men and women who meet for the first time can be in a tent...... In short, I'm not used to this custom of their people. ”

"Okay." Zhao Yuanli nodded. I said a few words to the girl in the language, and I could only hear the surprise on the girl's face.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun nodded secretly: Yes, yes, that's it, the feelings of your people are too open......

What made Zhao Hongrun stunned was that the girl did not show a disappointed or even angry expression after being politely rejected as he imagined, but her face faintly showed a little redness, and even her eyes showed a bit of expectation.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun faintly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked Zhao Yuanyan: "Sixth uncle, what did you tell her?" ”

I saw that Uncle Six Wang, Zhao Yuanyan, had a little evil smile on his face, and teased: "Sixth Uncle just told her that in order to express my apologies for last night, you will use the best prey today to win her heart." ”

"I'll go!"

Seeing that the girl of the Zong tribe was satisfied and left in a hurry, Zhao Hongrun turned his head viciously to look at Zhao Yuanyan, gritting his teeth and bitter and hateful.

"What's so bad? Hongrun, people, learn to be happy. …… Eat quickly, and Uncle Six will help you hunt a dumbfounded prey later, so that you can capture the girl's heart. ”

"Sixth Uncle ......"

"Haha."

After a period of hip-hop fighting, Zhao Yuanyan, Zhao Hongrun, and Princess Yulong, Mi Jiang, and Mi Rui, who came later, had a full breakfast, and together with twenty Zongwei, the group led their respective horses and left the camp.

But just as they left the camp and were about to go hunting, they saw a team passing by them, among which there were several strong men, and they deliberately bumped into Shen Yu, Lu Mu, Mu Qing and others, causing the unsuspecting three people to stumble.

"What's going on with these guys?

The eyes of the twenty Zong Wei present suddenly became gloomy, after all, this was a very obvious provocation.

At this time, Wang Qi, the head of the sect guard of the sixth uncle Zhao Yuanyan, stood up and said a few words to the group of people in the language of the Zong people, most likely to warn the other party.

However, to everyone's surprise, the strong man in the lead spit out a sentence of Wei Yan from his mouth.

"Get out of this land, Wei people, this place doesn't belong to you!"

As the leader spoke, several of the strong men behind him made the most provocative gesture towards Zhao Hongrun and the others: slashing their thumbs across their throats.

"Bastard thing!"

The twenty sect guards behind Zhao Yuanyan and Zhao Hongrun all changed color when they saw this, and they all grabbed the swords at their waists in anger.

At the same time, the Yin Rong of the opposite group of thirty or fifty people also raised their bows and arrows one after another.

"Qiang?"

Zhao Hongrun had already guessed the identity of the other party. (To be continued.) )
