Fang Xie looked at Yan Chongde, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask the curiosity in his heart. He raised his hand and gestured on his forehead, and then asked with some apprehension: "Brother Wanyan, why do you men of the Northern Liao clan keep their hair like this?" ”

Perhaps he also realized that it was rude for him to ask this question, so he smiled awkwardly.

Wanyan Chongde didn't care at all, he stroked his hand on his smooth forehead a few times and said: "This is a way for our men in Northern Liao to show courage and perseverance, I told you that the 100,000 mountains in Northern Liao are the coldest and most painful places in the world. And in order to show their courage to brave the cold, our ancestors in Northern Liao shaved off all the hair on their foreheads. ”

He smiled and said, "There is another reason...... If the hair is too long, it will hang down from the forehead and obscure the view, and the Northern Liao Land is too cold to cultivate. So if we want to live, we can only keep shooting and hunting in the 100,000 mountains. If the hair is too long, it will affect archery, so it will look neater. ”

Fang Xie nodded clearly, and said in his heart that the nation in his previous life also had the same hairstyle as the Northern Liao people because of this reason?

"Brother Fang, what trouble are you in?"

Wan Yan Chongde asked curiously.

Fang Xie sighed and said: "It's not a secret, I am a candidate recommended by Fan Gu to take the exam in the Imperial Capital Performing Arts Academy this year, but on the way I met a group of former enemies. I'm just afraid that if this continues, I will be killed by those enemies if I don't reach the imperial capital. So I want to ask Brother Wan Yan to give me three good horses, so that I can get rid of those enemies. ”

"Where did the enemy come from to be so bold?"

Wanyan Chongde was surprised: "The legal system in the Great Sui is the world, how can the government allow gangsters to commit murder like this?" Besides, you are still a candidate for the martial arts academy exam, how special your identity is, you just need to go to the official mansion along the way to say it, and the government will also send someone to protect you. ”

Fang Xie sighed: "Those people are all masters who have come and gone without a trace, even if the government is willing to send people to protect me, it will only increase the casualties." This is my private matter, how can I let someone else give their lives in vain to protect me? I can't do such a thing, so I'd better be more careful. If Brother Wanyan is embarrassed, he will not encounter it today. ”

He got up, hugged his fists and said, "We'll have a meeting later." ”

Before Yan Chongde could speak, the Beiliao woman immediately said, "Why should the wise man be polite? We Beiliao people value kindness and righteousness the most, and we also value the feelings of friends the most. Fang Zhizhi saved our envoy when he was in Fangu, which is a kindness to our Northern Liaodi. In that case, how can we feel sorry for a few horses? ”

She smiled and said: "What's more, the most important thing we Beiliao people lack is a good horse that travels thousands of miles every day." ”

Wanyan Chongde opened his mouth, but it was difficult to say anything. He quietly glared at the woman, and hurriedly echoed: "What I said is that Brother Fang is too outward. Isn't it just three horses, you choose for yourself, and you can pull which one you choose? ”

Fang Xie was waiting for his words, where would he be polite. He turned around and beckoned, and the big dog and Mu Xiaowaist immediately came out of the reeds behind. Fang Xie hugged his fists and saluted Wanyan Chongde deeply: "I will definitely repay him for saving my life today." Brother Wanyan, if you go to Dasui in the future, as long as Fang does not die, you can come to me anytime and anywhere if you have any difficulties. ”

He didn't choose either, and led a horse to turn over at random: "Brother Wanyan, there is one more thing you have to keep in mind." After returning to the 100,000 mountains, the movement of all soldiers and horses should not be too obvious. When you enter the Great Sui, I am afraid that there will already be people from Meng Yuan who will pay attention to it, and if you are not careful, you may be detected by the people of Meng Yuan. Even if the Great Sui is willing to send troops to help, it will be thousands of miles away, and when the soldiers and horses of the Great Sui arrive, my clan will already be wiped out. ”

"Please ask your Khan of Northern Liao to personally repair a letter and send someone to send it to the Golden Horde of the Mengyuan Empire. Don't say anything like allegiance, just say that the levy is too heavy, and the Northern Liao people are overwhelmed, so ask Meng Ge, the great Khan of the Mengyuan Empire, to reduce part of the taxes and tribute. ”

Wanyan Chongde was surprised: "In this way, isn't it equivalent to telling Meng Ge that we are going to rebel against Meng Yuan?" ”

"Won't"

Fang Xie smiled indifferently and said: "You just do what I say, as long as Meng Ge is not caught in the head by the door panel and becomes an idiot, otherwise he will never be suspicious, but will let down his guard against you Northern Liao people." ”

At this time, the big dog and Mu Xiaoxiao also came over, each led a horse, and after thanking Yan Chongde with a fist, he got on the horse and went to Fang Jie's side.

The Beiliao woman looked at Fang Jie, and a different look flashed in her beautiful eyes. She had never seen this young man's indifferent confidence in any man of the Northern Liao tribe. Although he didn't say much, the demeanor that made her feel like her heart was beating a little faster.

The Northern Liao tribe has never lacked warriors, but it is really impossible to find such a wise person at such a young age. Since she was a child, she has followed the Khan of Northern Liaodi to deal with the affairs of the clan, and naturally knows how important wisdom is to a man. In her opinion, this young man's demeanor can even be compared to Mr. Mizuki in the clan.

Although, this wet teenager looks a little embarrassed.

"Thank you Brother Fang for your advice!"

Wanyan Chongde hugged his fists, and wanted to say something more, but saw Fang Xie and left. He couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the backs of the three people leaving, turned his head to look at the Beiliao woman beside him, and reproached: "Qing'er, don't be so hasty next time." I'm only close to him, so I'll help him get into trouble......"

"You're cowardly!"

The woman who was called Qing'er gave him a blank look, and simply turned to the side.

Wanyan Chongde didn't seem to have much to do with this woman, but said with a wry smile: "That brother is not telling the truth, who knows if he has offended some famous family of the Great Sui, or if he is simply being hunted down by the government?" We helped him so rashly, in case we provoked someone who couldn't be provoked, it would not be of any benefit to our major affairs in Northern Liaodi. ”

"I don't care about that."

Qing'er looked in the direction where Fang Xie disappeared and said seriously: "I only know that Father Khan has told your brother since he was a child, that our men of the Northern Liao clan must know how to repay their kindness, and they can't be sorry for their friends." Fang Zhizhi helped you in Fangu, and just now he broke the plan of the Great Sui Imperial Court, and also helped to find a way not to let the people of the Mengyuan Empire suspect us, what's wrong with us giving him three horses? If you refuse to help even this little favor, how can you be worthy of the teachings of Father Khan? ”

"I can't tell you! If you don't feel sorry for yourself...... He's taking away your fire! ”

Qing'er pouted and said, "The fire is the fire, and it's a big deal to ask my father Khan for a good horse." We lack everything in Beiliao, but there is no shortage of BMW horses! I'm just a little worried...... They can't ride the cold horses of our northern Liaodi. ”

Wanyan Chongde said in annoyance: "Whatever you want...... We can't delay, let's leave immediately and get out of customs as soon as possible. ”

……

……

Fang Xie rode his horse, and had to sigh in his heart while galloping. The horses produced by the 100,000 mountains of the Northern Liao Land seem to be stronger than the good horses of the grassland. He sat down on his own, and the red horse was as fast as a gust of wind.

Not only is it amazingly fast, but it's also psychic. It always reacts immediately. Whether it's a vertical leap or a sudden stop, riding a horse has a feeling like an arm and a finger. Fang Xie knew that fierce horses had to be tamed, and the horse he was riding now could have such a strong physique and lightning speed, it must not be an ordinary horse. But if it is a fiery BMW, how can it be so docile?

He couldn't figure it out, so he was even more curious.

In my previous life, when I read novels and watched TV, when I talked about a good horse, I must be as violent as a tiger. People who do not have great perseverance and great ability are by no means easy to tame. But the horse, which ran like a great burning fire, completely subverted the preconceived notions in his mind.

Not only his war horse, but even the war horse ridden by the big dog and Mu Xiaoyi. There was not a trace of resistance to the new owner at all, and it was as docile as if it were not a horse but a kitten.

And what made Fang Xie feel most incredible was that the horse he chose at random seemed to be by no means ordinary among the war horses of the Northern Liao people. ran out less than five miles, leaving the big dog and Mu Xiaoxiao far behind. If it weren't for the fact that he deliberately slowed down later, I was afraid that it wouldn't take half an hour for the big dogs to not even see their backs.

"The good horses of the Northern Liao Land are really extraordinary!"

After Fang Jiefang slowed down, the big dog caught up and couldn't help but sigh. He and Mu Xiaoxiao sat down on snow-white war horses, running like a cloud fluttering on the ground. In contrast, Fang Jie's horse is even more dazzling. The horse's mane was long, and when it ran, it was like a flame rising.

"But ......"

Mu Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Do you feel a chill on this horse?" ”

You must know that Mu Xiaowaist is in such a cold place as Fan Gu, and he is only wearing a thin red dress all day long. made her feel the chill, and it can be seen that the war horses in the Northern Liao Land are really a little strange.

"Indeed!"

Fang Xie nodded and said, "And this chill seems to be able to penetrate into people's bones." ”

The big dog hesitated: "Is it because the Northern Liao Land is too cold?" ”

"Leave him alone!"

Fang Xie smiled: "As long as I get used to it, I like this horse more and more now!" ”

As the three of them spoke, they turned from the path to the official road and galloped all the way to the southeast. But what I didn't expect was that not long after he entered the official road, Mu Xiaoxiao's face became solemn.

"There are a lot of masters in front, and the official road should be sealed."

She looked at Fang Xie and was about to ask him what to do, when she suddenly frowned again: "Someone is also coming from behind." ”

"Can you feel the strength of the people in front of you?"

Fang asked.

Mu Xiaoyin strangled the war horse and closed her eyes, and the big dog and Fang Xie also stopped and didn't dare to disturb her. After a full five minutes, Mu Xiaoxiao slowly opened his eyes and said: "The people on both sides are within three miles of us, and there doesn't seem to be a strong person among the people who sealed the official road in front, and there are a few people with three or four grades of strength." There are many people in the back who can't deal with it. ”

"Then rush forward!"

Fang Xie bit and scolded: "Even if Lao Tzu is going to die, he will die at the gate of the Yanwu Academy!" ”

……

……

In a small village about 1,000 miles away from Fenglindu, a few old people sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village who were chatting idly suddenly noticed that someone was coming from a distance. It's a strange face, alone. The man looked to be about twenty years old, dressed in a moon-white scholarly robe, the white robe fluttered when he walked, and the long hair behind him that was tied up at random was gently blown by the wind, and the whole person looked like he was flowing with a dusty flow.

These old men, who have lived to be sixty or seventy years old, have never seen a man so beautiful. is not only beautiful, but also does not seem to have a little human fireworks.

The figure, face is perfect to the extreme.

The gestures are elegant to the extreme.

"A few old people, how far is it to Fenglindu?"

The young man walked up to the old men and asked politely.

"Fenglindu? Is that the ferry port from Xiangcheng to Hedong County? ”

An old man asked.

The boy nodded.

The old man thought for a while and said, "It's probably going to be thousands of miles, I haven't been there, so it's hard to say." ”

The man in white asked in a gentle tone: "Then I didn't go in the wrong direction?" ”

"Nope! The direction is right. ”

Childe heard the old man's affirmative answer, smiled and thanked him again. He turned and walked back to the official road, stretched out his hand and beckoned. Suddenly, a snow-white tiger larger than a yak jumped out of the grass on the side of the road, and let out an earth-shattering roar in the direction where the old people were. The tiger's limbs were thick and large, with broad shoulders and a thin waist, and the tiger's tail looked as long as a human being, especially the king character on his forehead, which was the color of blood.

This tiger roar directly frightened several old people into softening.

"Fu Mo, don't mess around."

The man in white stretched out his hand and gently touched the forehead of the huge white tiger, and the white tiger suddenly became quiet and well-behaved. It bowed down, docile as a cat. Childe raised his legs and rode on the back of the white tiger and pointed in the direction in front of him, and the white tiger roared low and immediately jumped forward and rushed out, and disappeared after a while.
