Chapter 20 Escort

The migrating team continued to move forward, and Bailijian didn't want to cause more trouble, so he prepared to let the team take a detour. But sometimes, the more you try to get away from trouble, the trouble just comes to you.

The day after the group was about to make a detour, the middle tribe spotted the migratory group. With a migration team of two or three hundred people and nearly a thousand cattle and sheep, the goal is naturally not small.

Soon, the other party sent a special person to inquire. That's where Helanda comes in handy.

The one who was sent over was a handsome man from Yiluo, whose name was Su Heluo, who was five big and three thick, and the hair on his body was no less than that of Mangula. Helanda's eloquence was verified again, and after just a few words, he chatted with Hu Tianhai, who was hooked up with Su and Luo.

Bai Lijian and Liu Jing stood nearby and observed the actions of the two, and when they saw the lush hair on Su Heluo's chest, they turned around and laughed at Mangula: "That guy is not your lost brother, right?" ”

When Mangula heard this, he immediately shook his head seriously and denied: "Impossible, my mother died when she gave birth to me, and there are no other brothers." ”

"But if you look at the hair on his body, he doesn't have any less hair than yours."

Mangula took a closer look, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said in surprise: "Really, is he also a werewolf?" But how could their tribe have a werewolf as its leader? ”

"What nonsense!" Bai Lijian slapped Mangula angrily, "I've told you, this is just an atavistic phenomenon, I've seen people with hair on their faces and hands, just you stupid people were played around, and I still believe it." ”

"Hey, hey!" Mangula smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not smart in the first place. ”

Bai Lijian looked at this big man who deliberately pretended to be stupid, and said with a smile in his heart: "If you were really stupid, then you wouldn't have lived until now." ”

Seeing that Helanda and Su Heluo were more and more speculative as they talked, and they almost forgot about business, Bai Lijian had to send someone over to remind him to pay attention to the time.

When Helanda came back, the look on his face was a little unnatural, and his eyes were a little evasive when he looked at Bai Lijian.

"Helanda, what does that Su and Luo mean when they came over?" Liu Jing asked.

"This ......" Helanda was a little slurred, with a hint of dodging in her words.

"If you have something to say, what are you afraid of?" Liu Jing said impatiently.

Helanda was reprimanded, and then he tried to muster up the courage and said, "This Suheluo asked us for five hundred sheep as the cost of the migration. ”

"What? Five hundred sheep? Why didn't he go and grab it! As soon as he heard this, Mangula immediately exploded. I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such shameless.

Originally, there were not many cattle and sheep brought by his tribe, and a batch of them had just been slaughtered as a reserve of food, and the rest was all the hope of the tribe's future life. If five hundred heads are lost at once, the entire tribe will definitely not be able to survive this winter.

"Five hundred sheep is not a small number, why should he?"

Looking at Bai Lijian, who had a calm face, and was not angry because of the other party's lion's big mouth, Helanda said with a little peace of mind: "He said that he can send troops to protect us to reach our destination, and the reward he asks for is five hundred sheep." ”

"We're just moving normally, why should he send troops to protect us?" Bai Lijian said unhappily.

"This ...... That ......" Helanda hesitated for a moment, and saw that Bai Lijian's face was getting more and more gloomy, and hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from the son, that I have known Su Heluo before, this time he didn't know where he knew about my refusal to send troops to Lord Helan Oitou, so he used this to threaten me, saying that if he didn't give him five hundred sheep, he would immediately arrest us all, and then send it to Lord Helan Oi to receive the reward." ”

After listening to Helanda's words, Mangula was furious, and pointed the scimitar in his hand at Helanda and scolded loudly: "You are a cowardly ghost, why didn't you say it earlier? Lao Tzu cut off his head with a knife, see how he still catches us! ”

"Childe, spare your life, I'm ...... I really can't help it, this Su and Luo are extraordinary in martial arts, and there is a cavalry team of 100 people under his command, if we fight, we are not their opponents at all. Helanda wept with a look of horror on her face.

"Didn't the Helan Ministry send people to deal with the army of the acting king? Why does he still have a formed army in his hands? Liu Jing took over the conversation and asked.

Helanda looked up at Liu Jing and hurriedly replied: "This Su and Luo's sister is married to the tribal commander, and this time the army is mainly drawn from other Yiluo, and none of the people from Su and Luo Yiluo have moved. ”

"Oh, I see!" Liu Jing nodded, turned to Bai Lijian and said, "Childe, this sheep ...... Do we give or not? ”

Now the situation is a bit difficult to ride a tiger. If you don't agree, in the face of a well-equipped hundred-man cavalry team, a team of only fifty horse bandits is not enough, and the other party only needs a charge to disperse this horse bandit team composed of stragglers.

"Give!" Baili Jian gritted his teeth and said, "But we'll give it back when we get to the place!" ”

After receiving Bai Lijian's affirmative answer, Helanda breathed a long sigh of relief, and the worry in his heart eased. Helanda has always been worried, worried that the young master in front of him is a stubborn temper, if he has to die, the group of people in front of him will definitely have no good end.

"Childe, if we really give it, we will have a sad life in the future!" Liu Jing reminded in a whisper in Bai Lijian's ear.

"I know!" Bai Lijian nodded and said: "These are all things outside the body, you can give them out today, and you can grab them back tomorrow." If you are willing to give up, you will get if you are willing to give up. ”

Now that Bai Lijian has made a decision, Liu Jing doesn't have to say anything more. It's just that Liu Jing still has some doubts in his heart, in his impression, Bai Lijian is not such a good talker.

When he was camping at night, Liu Jing came to Bailijian's tent with questions and found that Bailijian had already made milk tea and was waiting for him.

"Childe knows I'm coming?" Liu Jing sat down opposite Bai Lijian and asked curiously.

Bai Lijian poured Liu Jing a cup of milk tea and said with a smile: "Mr. wanted to talk a few times during the day today, he must have doubts in his heart but it is inconvenient to say, so I thought that Mr. might come over at night, so I made some preparations in advance." ”

Since Bai Lijian has already said it bluntly, Liu Jing no longer hides it, and says directly: "Childe really plans to send out five hundred sheep for nothing?" Judging from the current situation, we basically didn't have any trouble along the way, and we didn't need to be escorted at all. ”

"If someone wants to escort us for free, why don't we?" Bai Lijian took a sip of milk tea and showed a meaningful smile.
