Chapter 12: Allegiance

Receiving the allegiance of Mangula made Bai Lijian very proud in his heart. Although Mangula is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, Bai Lijian doesn't care, because Bai Lijian himself is the one who is most afraid of death. In order to survive, as long as you don't touch the bottom line of being a human being, anything you do can be forgiven.

With the experience of Mangula, the people behind rushed to point out to each other. At first, it was just cursing at each other, but it soon evolved into a group exposing each other's secrets. Bailijian did not stop them, now is the best time to grasp the details of these people, and it is also to pave the way for subduing them.

Seeing that the people of his tribe had turned from their original brothers to enemies in the blink of an eye, Sha Qianli's expression became ugly, and this was no longer the tribe he was familiar with.

"Enough!" Sha Qianli yelled: "Shut up for me!" ”

Sha Qianli still has quite a prestige among these tribes, and a roar suddenly quieted everyone.

"Look at yourself, what has become of you, where is there still a little bit of backbone as a tribal warrior? Isn't it death, what is there to be afraid of? When did so many seeds emerge on our grasslands? ”

The subordinates were questioned by Sha Qianli, and they all lowered their heads one by one, their faces full of shame.

One of the subordinates raised his head with tears on his face, and cried bitterly to this Sha Qianli: "Xiaoshuai, it's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that there is an old lady in my family, and my mother-in-law is not in good health, she still has three children to support, and my family will have nothing to rely on when I die." ”

"Yes, Xiaoshuai, you let me go to the battlefield, I'm not afraid of death, but I don't want to die so senselessly!"

"I don't want to die, I'm only seventeen!"

The first person spoke, and the rest of the people chimed in.

Sha Qianli was also full of tears on his face at this time, and said with tears: "It's me who is sorry for you, it's me who is too careless and brings you to a dead end." If you want to die, I will die first. Saying that, Sha Qianli looked up at Bailijian and pleaded: "Little doll, count me as begging, kill me if you want to kill them, let them live, I promise they will all listen to you." ”

"No way!" Bai Lijian shook his head and said: "You can only change one person to live if you want them all to live, unless you ......"

"Unless what?" Sha Qianli seemed to see a glimmer of hope and hurriedly asked.

"Unless you voluntarily become my slave and swear eternal allegiance to me and never betray me, then I may be able to rest assured that your men will survive without fear that they will turn against me."

"Didn't you say you didn't believe in the oath?" Sha Qianli asked through gritted teeth.

"I don't believe it, but I believe in you. A person who is willing to die for others is worth the risk. ”

"Haha, you're really not your average little doll. If you're ten years older, I'll be convinced of your allegiance from the beginning. Now I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have underestimated you, your age has confused my eyes and made me lose badly. ”

Saying that, Sha Qianli raised his head and shouted loudly to the sky: "I, Sha Qianli, I am willing to swear to the gods that I will voluntarily be the slave of the son in front of me in this body, be a slave for life, and never betray." If I break my oath, I will suffer endless heavenly punishment! ”

"Good!"

Bai Lijian was very happy in his heart, but Bai Lijian couldn't release people now, because there were still people guarding outside, and without Uncle Zhuo Gang's order, the women outside would not let Bai Lijian take people away. And this matter must also be discussed with Uncle Zhuo Gang, otherwise without Uncle Zhuo Gang's support, Baili Jian would not be able to feed so many people.

Although he was reluctant in his heart, Bai Lijian still had to go to Uncle Zhuogang's camp. However, when Bai Lijian approached Uncle Zhuogang's tent, he suddenly heard the sound of quarrels coming from inside. Carefully distinguished, it was actually Uncle Tumu who was arguing with Uncle Zhuogang.

"Those captives can't be kept, they must all be killed!" Uncle Tu Mu said loudly in his characteristic high voice.

"No, according to the rules of the steppe, the enemy who surrenders cannot be killed." Uncle Zhuo Gang refused.

"Those people are wolves, and you keep so many wolves in the camp, if they break free, we don't have enough strength to resist them." Uncle Tumu said anxiously.

"Then send more people to watch it out. It's a big deal to starve them for a few more days, so that they don't have the strength to do evil. ”

"Uncle Zhuogang, what do you want to do with these people?"

"What else can I do? We don't have the ability to protect others now, and if we can let them join our tribe, we can at least ensure that these women and children can live. ”

"No, it's too dangerous, I don't agree." Tu Mu resolutely objected.

"And what can you do to protect everyone?" Uncle Zhuo Gang's rhetorical question suddenly left Tu Mu speechless.

Tu Mu hesitated for a while, and then spoke: "If you don't find Xiao Jian to ask, he has always had an active brain, maybe there is a way." ”

"No, he's been looking for me a long time ago." Uncle Zhuo Gang said impatiently.

"What did he say?" Tu Mu didn't notice Uncle Zhuo Gang's expression, and hurriedly asked.

"He suggested that we move right away!"

"No, he stopped us from migrating to avoid the horse bandits before, why did he take the initiative to ask for the migration now?" Tu Mu wondered.

"Hmph, this kid is a coward, he only knows how to escape." Uncle Zhuo Gang's tone was full of disdain, as if he had forgotten who had advocated staying to resist the horse bandits before.

"There must be a mistake, that kid doesn't look like he's a coward." Tu Mu shook his head in disbelief.

"Believe it or not! He also didn't want to think about how we could survive this winter without enough pasture and the cattle and sheep couldn't grow fat. Uncle Zhuo Gang grumbled.

"After all, he's still a child, so don't be like him."

"Yes, sometimes when I look at his serious face, I almost forget that it's just a ten-year-old doll."

'Hahaha'

The two people in the tent were smiling happily, but Bai Lijian, who was standing outside the tent, was not happy. His kindness was used as a joke in the conversation, and the two who were still tense just now actually regarded themselves as jokes at the same time.

"Can't stand it?" Liu Jing, who had been following Bai Lijian, suddenly spoke.

"Of course not!" Bai Lijian shook his head and said, "It's just that I'm a little uncomfortable." ”

"When you're weak, you're nothing, and people just see you as a joke. But when you're strong, even if you're talking nonsense, people will tremble. ”

"I know, but before I become stronger, the benefits will always outweigh the disadvantages by numbing others with the weak side." Bai Lijian smiled indifferently and walked straight towards the tent.
