Chapter 1: The Great Thief (9)

"Quick, give a salute to the master!" Hebu commanded hurriedly.

"May the Immortal Heaven bless the master's health!" The slave girls crouched down and tried to show off their good figures.

"Uh, don't look up!" An apologetic answer came from the front. The female slaves were stunned for a moment, and then they felt a pain in the back of their heads, and they fell on the carpet one after another.

"Tie their hands and feet, and put their mouths in cloth!" Xu Dayan shook the scimitar in his hand towards Hebu and ordered.

"What kind of guest is this, more skilled than a robber!" He Bu Yan muttered in his heart, squatted down, and helped Li Xu tie up several female slaves one by one. Then he tore strips of cloth from the quilt and gagged them.

Xu Dayan looked at the outside of the felt bag through the crack in the door, waited until another group of patrolling Turkic soldiers walked away, turned around and ordered: "Take us to the stable in Qiyu, we need good horses!" ”

Li Xu packed his bags beside him, put the horn bow given by his uncle behind his back, and lifted the scimitar to put it on Hebu's waist. Feeling the coldness coming from the tip of the knife piercing his clothes, he shrank forward and shuddered out of the tent.

Xu Dayan chose the timing so well that almost no one noticed them. The Turks are invincible in the steppe, so the soldiers are really not vigilant at night. After tiptoeing for a while, the three of them came to the stable dedicated to high-ranking officials and nobles, Xu Dayan flashed sideways, and after a while, the restless sound of war horses came from the stable.

"There are two grooms, both knocked out by me! One person, two rides, pick a horse! Xu's big-eyed figure flashed out of the crack in the door and ordered in a low voice.

"Uncle?" Hebu exclaimed quietly. Xu Dayan's order obviously included himself, but he was an innocent scholar and had never done such an obscene deed.

"Do you want to be killed by me, or will you be tied to the back of a horse and dragged to death?" Xu asked with a murderous anger with wide eyes.

"I'm forced to be helpless!" He lamented his innocence and put his hand on the reins of his horse. Xu Dayan asked reasonably, if he didn't leave, the two distinguished guests could only kill people. Even if the two distinguished guests showed mercy, but Yu asked for the crime of leading the way and stealing horses, what was waiting for him was still a dead word.

"Pity my Pan family's innocence for generations!" Hebu Yan, no, the scholar Pan Zhanyang trembled, and crawled behind the war horse with a rough breath.

There were about twenty horses in the stable, and the black wind that Li Xu had won from Qiyu was tied to the upstream. Seeing the master touch in the middle of the night, Hei Feng snorted in a low voice, and rubbed his neck on Li Xu's face.

"Take us to the gate, someone asked, and said that Lord Yu gave the order!" Xu Dayan jumped on a horse that looked good, took another one in his hand, and ordered.

"Well, I'm afraid that's not right!" Pan Zhanyang suddenly became brave and replied while sitting on horseback.

Xu Da's eyes flashed, and he reached out to touch the knife on his waist. Pan Zhanyang grabbed him and shouted in a low voice: "I, I mean, put it, put it on fire." ”

"Set fire?" Xu asked approvingly. He didn't expect such a vicious method, the Turkic camp was made of wood, and if a fire was set up, the entire camp could be destroyed.

"First, find a few secluded places and set fires, and then let's run around in the chaos. Arrive, at the door, I, I give a false order, you kill people and take the door! Pan Zhanyang stammered, but his meaning was clearly expressed.

"It's the most secluded!" Xu Dayan jumped off the horse, grabbed a few handfuls of straw, and tied them to the tail of the nearest war horse.

Li Xu saw that Xu Dayan decided to do it, and immediately got off the horse to help. He had been accustomed to rough work since he was a child, and he tied up bales of straw to speed up to three, and in a few moments he tied the tails of all the horses except the three-man mounts.

"This, they forced me, no, nothing to do with me!" Pan Zhanyang pulled out the dagger from the middle of his boots, jumped forward and cut off the reins of the horse one by one. Li Xu and Xu Dayan each picked up a pine wood for the lighting of the stable, first lit the straw on the ground, and then swept it along the buttocks of the war horses one by one.

"Sigh!" The frightened horse let out a mournful neigh, and rushed out of the stable. One, two, three, fifteen, or six Turkic horses of great horses dragged their tails around the camp.

"Enemy attack!" Xu Dayan shouted in Turkic, grabbed a torch and jumped on horseback, and easily lit the nearby firewood and straw stack.

"Enemy attack!" Li Xu painted a scoop according to the gourd, rode on the back of the black wind, and quickly ignited a fire.

"It's amazing, Bao, protect Lord Yu!" Pan Zhanyang knew that even if he didn't participate in the arson today, he lit a sky lantern after being caught. He stammered and screamed, and rubbed the torch in his hand against the shepherd's barn.

"It's on fire, it's on fire!" Someone shouted loudly in the distance. Several fires burned in different places, startling the soldiers on the night patrol into a hurry, taking care of this side and not the other.

Xu Dayan, Li Xu, and Hebu Yan galloped and rushed straight to the gate of the camp. There was not much firewood and grass tied to the tail of the startled horse, and it looked scary in the dark, and unless it happened to light the haystacks prepared by the Turks for the wintering of their livestock, the flames simply did not last long.

They must flee before the Turks can regain their composure from the chaos. Deliberate arson is the most hated crime in the steppe, and even if the Khan's son set fire, there is only one way to die if he is caught.

As if a god was blessing, the fire grew bigger and bigger, not only near the stables of Qiyu, but also in the depths of the camp, and there were several places where red light appeared, and billowing smoke mixed with sparks soared upward, almost illuminating half of the night sky.

There was chaos in the camp, with the sound of horns, cries, orders from commanders, and the footsteps of soldiers. In the chaos and darkness, no one noticed Li Xu, Xu Dayan and Hebu Yan fishing in troubled waters.

"You, go and protect Lord Qiyu's stable!" Xu Dayan pointed at a group of herdsmen with a horsewhip and ordered in Turkic. Without waiting for the shepherds to react, the three of them rushed over and quickly melted into the darkness.

"Who is he, and how did he order us?" Someone asked his companion in a low voice.

"Didn't you see that Teller Horse? Who else could be riding a Thorler? Someone smart explained out loud. Pick up buckets and sticks and run to the brightest place of the flames.

"Ashina Choyu, this is my reward for you!" Li Xu looked back at the flames for a long time, and his heart was full of pleasure of revenge. Whether he escaped tonight or not, Ashina Choyu paid the price for his conspiracy.

In the sudden burst of firelight, he saw Tao Kuodesi's holy body again.

"Dew couple, this word is so beautiful, you Han people are smart, you can create such an interesting word!" The girl smiled, and the expression on her face was fascinated.
