In the camp of the Tuni tribe, there was a cry of pain.

With two lines of tears on his face, he turned and ran away. She came to a stream and scrubbed her bloodied hands with clean water, and continued to cry. In the past, the playmates who were still laughing and frolicking together, the young men who were jumping around, now some of them are missing arms and legs, and they can't stop wailing in pain; Some have bloodless faces and have their eyes closed forever. She couldn't figure out, what was all this for?

Straightening up and drying his hands, Qiqige looked up to see a group of men and horses rushing towards the camp in the midst of the dust and smoke. She hurriedly stepped forward, it should have been the rising sun who went out to look for Suha and they had returned, and she was also anxious to know the whereabouts of her eldest brother Suha.

The centaur was getting closer and closer, and when she saw Qiqige standing on the side of the road, the rising sun at the head gently reined in the horse's reins and stopped in front of her. Looking at Qi Qige's eyes full of anticipation, the rising sun's dry and cold face still had no expression, but he lowered his head in shame and shook it lightly twice as an answer.

His bright eyes suddenly dimmed, and he slowly lowered his head in disappointment.

Rising Sun Gan's voice was slightly hoarse and whispered: "Qiqige, you go to accompany and comfort your mother and sister-in-law, I still have important matters to discuss with the leaders and elders." ”

Qiqige nodded sensibly, and watched the group of centaurs gallop past in a hurry.

She bred up and walked to her mother's yurt. As soon as I arrived at the tent, I heard a faint cry coming from the tent. With a light sigh, she still mustered up the courage to lift the curtain and bow her head and walked in.

Inside the tent, Qiqige's mother and Suha's wife were hugging each other and weeping. Both of them were desperately suppressing their cries, and they were trying their best to comfort each other.

Seeing Qiqige walking in, the two of them straightened up in unison and asked eagerly, "Is there any news from Suha?" ”。

Looking at the eyes of the two relatives full of tears and hope, Qi Qige couldn't help but have red circles in his eyes, lowered his head and shook it gently.

She then walked forward quickly, sat down beside them, and said, "Rising Sun has just returned to the camp, and there is no news yet. But don't worry too much, you didn't find the indication that Suha is still alive, maybe just hiding temporarily. ”

Suha's wife couldn't hide the disappointment on her face, sighed heavily, and began to burst into tears again.

Qiqige hurriedly gave his mother a look, and the two of them comforted each other at the same time, persuaded each other with good words, tried their best to gossip, and tried their best to distract her attention.

After a while, the curtain was lifted, and a maid walked in in panic, knelt down and saluted, then looked up and said, "I just got the news that the coalition army has sent an envoy, and it is rumored that Suha is not worried about his life and is not injured...... It's just that...... It's just ......".

Qi Qige felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Just what?" ”。

The maid glanced up at them embarrassedly, then quickly lowered her head and said, "It's just that he's in the coalition camp now. ”

Qi Qige opened his mouth slightly and was stunned, and after a while, he finally understood, and his face couldn't help but become more and more pale.

In the midst of the Tunni tribal tent, an emissary sent by the coalition forces stood in the middle, surrounded by Tunni people with knife handles, gritted teeth, and eyes full of hatred.

The envoy of the coalition army said unhurriedly: "The Great Khan of Bars has always been broad-minded and does not want to be an enemy of any tribe. After all, we are all people of the Immortal Heaven. The Suha warriors have been treated like guests with us, so please rest easy, the head of Gesulid and the elders! When is the time for retribution? Why don't we both dismount and put down the scimitars in our respective hands, and sit down calmly to talk. ”

Towards Gesulid jerked back, staring at the emissary's face with bloodshot eyes. After a moment of silence, he sighed heavily, turned around and gritted his teeth and asked, "What quid pro quo did the Great Khan of Bars offer?" ”。

The envoy smiled slightly and said, "When I came, the Great Khan of Bars did not put forward any specific conditions, but only asked me to convey the good intentions of the tribal alliance to the Tuni tribe. As for the conditions, the two sides can sit down and discuss slowly. ”

His eyes were red on the side, and the rising sun, who had long been unable to hold back, stepped forward and gritted his teeth: "Blood debts must be paid with blood!" What's there to discuss?! ”。

The envoy of the coalition army turned around, glanced at him, and hurriedly bent down and said with a smile: "This is the Rising Sun Warrior, right?" There have been rumors of your heroic defeat of the Zalihats in our coalition, and the Great Khan of Baars has praised your bravery and prowess even more! ”。

As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling person when you reach out your hand, and when you hear the allied envoy say this, the rising sun is not good, and I can't help but be stunned for a moment.

The envoy turned to Gesulid and said, "Lord, I can't hide it, our coalition army has enough strength to raze your tribe to the ground, and I believe you have all seen it!" I have brought the sincerity of the Great Khan of Bars. It is a matter of life and death for the entire tribe, where to go, I hope the leader and the elders will think twice. I retired under it. ”

Turning to Gesulid again, the expression on his face calmed considerably, and after respectfully saluting the coalition envoy, he silently watched him exit the tent.

The air in the tent, which had been almost solidified, became active again, and an elder stepped forward and said, "Lord Chief, they are clearly blackmailing, we Tuni people are iron-clad, even if we fight to the last person, we will never negotiate again!" ”。

The rest of the elders bowed their heads and did not say anything.

Glancing at Gesurid, he asked, "You might as well express your opinions." ”

The Rising Sun took a step forward and said, "What the elder said is right, I, the son of the Tuni tribe, would rather die standing than live on my knees!" Fight with them, it's a big deal that the jade will be burned, and the fish will die and the net will be broken! ”。

Chao Gesulid glanced at him dissatisfied, and said, "Are you sure of defeating the coalition forces?" What's more, Suha is still in their hands! It is not just impulsive, but also the lives of the people......

Qi Qige finally couldn't stand his sister-in-law's heart-rending cry, got up and left his mother's yurt, and walked out quickly.

She glanced up at the gray sky, raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, gritted her teeth, and resolutely walked to the stables not far away. He took out his mount, turned over on his horse, whipped his horse, and galloped into the unknown distance.

In the camp of the Prairie Alliance, it was busy. Although the Great Khan of Bars had sent envoys to the Tuni tribes, he was still constantly sending troops and making full preparations for the second hand.

One of the guards entered the tent and bowed to Bars, saying, "King Khan, a messenger claiming to be a Tuni tribe asks to see the Great Khan. ”

Bals looked up slightly strangely, and habitually raised his hand to brush the golden mustache on his lips. He asked, "Tuni envoy?" It's coming too fast, isn't it? According to my calculations, the emissary of our coalition must have arrived at the Tuni tribe not long ago. ”

Agudammu clenched his scimitar, stepped forward, opened his eyes and whispered: "King Khan, beware of the Tuni people and dogs jumping over the wall and taking risks. ”

Bars frowned, waved his hand, sat down behind the handsome case, and said, "Let him in." ”

A moment later, the curtain was raised, and Qi Qige walked in with a stern face with his waist straight, his eyes condensed.

The people in the tent were very surprised: how could the Tuni tribe suddenly send a yellow-haired girl to send an envoy?

Bars was also quite surprised, raised his eyebrows, and quietly stroked the golden mustache on his lips, looking at the visitor.

Qiqige walked briskly to the front of Bars, and after bowing steadily, he raised his head and stared at Bars's face without hesitation, and said, "You are the Great Khan of the coalition army, Bars, right?" I am from the Tuni tribe, and my father is the head of the tribe, Chao Gesurid. ”

Bars smiled and nodded, not in a hurry to speak.

Agudamu on the side shook the scimitar in his hand with a "bang", stepped forward and said loudly: "The Tuni tribe is afraid of the might of our coalition army, but the leader of the Tuni tribe sent you to surrender?" ”。

Qiqige turned his head, rolled his eyes without fear, snorted, and turned his head away again.

Agudamu got angry and took another step forward, wanting to scare the yellow-haired girl in front of him again.

Bars glared at him, squeezing back the words that had come to his throat.

Qiqige raised his head and looked at Bars, and said in a crisp voice: "Actually, I am not the envoy of the Tuni tribe, let alone the surrender of fear of death!" I only speak on my own behalf, on behalf of my mother-in-law, who misses her son, and on behalf of my sister-in-law, who is in tears, to negotiate with you: let my eldest brother go, and stop all the killing of my Tunis! ”。

The air suddenly seemed to freeze, and then the big men in the tent erupted in laughter.

Chagan Temur rolled his white and black eyes, squinted at Qi Qige and smiled: "Little girl, you have red mouth and white teeth, but what you say is light!" Do you know how many soldiers and horses our coalition forces have lost dead and wounded?! Only by killing all of you Tunis can we relieve the hatred in our hearts! ”。

A fat military general also stepped forward and said: "Yes, unless you Tuni people kneel and beg for mercy, surrender to our coalition army, and surrender the number of cattle and sheep to the satisfaction of our Great Khan!" ”。

Bars frowned and waved his hand to interrupt the commotion.

He turned his face and looked at Qi Qige with interest and said with a smile: "So you are hiding from your clan and coming here without the consent of your parents, which is not a small courage!" It's not impossible to get King Ben Khan to promise you, you have to convince this king to let him see some benefits, right? ”。

Qi Qige raised his little face suddenly, and said with tears in the corners of his eyes: "All the tribes of the grassland are originally the children of the Immortal Heaven, and they should be like a family!" If you want to unify the tribes of the steppe, you shouldn't create new blood and killing, sow new seeds of hatred! Let the tribes of the steppe love you from the bottom of their hearts, and like you is a good Khan king, instead of making everyone afraid of you, just afraid of your force and cruelty! ”。

Taking a breath, Qi Qige lowered her head again, and after a while, her eyes lit up, her cheeks turned crimson, and she said, "If you can promise me not to kill my Tuni people again, and let my eldest brother go, I am willing to stay and marry you!" ”。

King Khan Bars stopped his movements, dumbfounded.

The people in the tent looked at each other and were silent.
