Chapter 50: The Request of the Cause
Chapter 50: The Request of the Cause
"Creevey has made a request, but what about you? If you have any requirements, just say it, others in the province say that I am unfair. After finishing the exchange with Creevey, Li Zhen asked Ben Yin again, and the tone was almost like a strange Shu Huang who deceived a child with candy: "Or Creevey wants me to avenge him, and you don't have any bigger enemies?" For example, the governor of Egypt who didn't save you in the first place? Don't you have a little grudge against him? Also, hasn't he usually abused you? Or didn't his men bully you? ”
"Your Highness, there really isn't." Ben Yin smiled bitterly: "Count Lucius is very good, and he also attaches great importance to slaves and maids, the reason why he did not save the slave and maid is because he was also injured at that time and has been carried down to treat his injuries, and the slave and maid also took the initiative to break off because of the cover of the Earl's retreat, but he didn't want to lose his front hooves and be caught by the enemy, he was already unconscious at that time, and he really can't blame him."
As for the bullying of colleagues, this is not the case, Egypt is the periphery of the Roman Empire, there is no stinking problem of the Byzantine aristocracy, where it has always been respected by strength 2, the strength of the slave and the maid is the strongest, not only no one humiliates the slave and the maid, but also many people are friends of the slave and the slave, and the slave and the maid have discussed and exchanged. ”
"So that's ......" Li Zhen was a little disappointed, this really can't be blamed on others, after all, everyone has been injured and unconscious, do you still expect a comatose person to come back to save you?
Unexpectedly, Ben Yin's voice suddenly changed at this time: "But if you really want to say that there is any request, thanks to Crevi's prompt, the slave maid really remembered something, and I hope Your Highness can agree." ”
"Let's talk about it." Li Zhen's spirit perked up, these people have paid too much for themselves, if they don't ask for something from themselves, they will be very uneasy in their hearts - even if this kind of request is very far away, and may not even be able to complete it for life, but as long as they agree, they will always try their best to help them achieve it, it is better than asking for anything they want, which will make their hearts even more guilty.
"Hey." Ben Yin suddenly sighed, and said with some sadness: "Creevey didn't say it just now, the slave and maid haven't remembered it yet, now think about it carefully, the slave and maid have been out of the tribe since they were teenagers, and it has been more than thirty years, and the slave and maid have not been back once in these years, and I don't know what happened to the family, are they still alive......
So, if the slave maid is saying that if, if in the future, when His Highness can fight in Africa one day, please ask His Highness to bring the slave and maid, and the slave and maid want to go back...... If the slave and maid are no longer there at that time, take the slave's children and let them take the slave's ashes with them, and follow His Highness to Africa instead of the slave and maid, and scatter the slave's ashes on the land of Africa...... If you can find the tribe of slaves and maids, please treat your highnesses kindly to the slaves and maids, and do not ask for them to be prosperous and rich, but only to let them have a better living environment...... But if we can't find it, or if our tribe is gone, then ...... Then forget it. ”
"Hahaha, this palace can't help you do this." Li Zhen laughed and said: "Your own business, you should do it yourself - now that Datang's navigation technology is so developed, there are even maritime merchants who have done business on the Dashi Peninsula, which is not far from the west coast of Africa, as long as we defeat the Dashi Empire, we will establish a base there, I will arrange you to be under the Governor of Dashi, and when the time comes, you can go back as you want...... If you really can't wait, then I can arrange a fleet to send you to the continent now, and when you find your tribe, then we can talk about anything else. ”
"Then the slave maid should go with His Highness's army." Ben Yin chose almost without thinking: "Let's not mention that the African continent is vast, not smaller than today's Tang Dynasty, just relying on slaves and maids to scatter a little people into it is like throwing a drop of water into the sea, it can't make much waves at all, it is too difficult to find our tribe, although the slave and maid know the general location of our tribe - after all, the slave and maid have not been back for more than 30 years, what happened in the tribe, no one knows, maybe our tribe has been wiped out by the enemy, Or die in the drought of the savannah.
Besides, the slave maid is now the slave and maid of His Highness first, and then the warrior of the Black Mamba tribe, before His Highness completes his great cause, what can the slave and maid do even if they go back? ”
"What's more......" Speaking of this, Ben Yin's face showed a little embarrassment (although because of his dark face, others couldn't see it), but he still had the courage to say: "What's more, although the slave and maid are not very good, they are also the servants of His Royal Highness the Prince, and they have formed such a large mercenary group, and the slaves and maids can be regarded as getting ahead - Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, once said that wealth and nobility do not return to their hometowns, just like walking at night in brocade clothes...... The slave and maid feel that they are mixing well now, if they can't go back with the army and have a good prestige, wouldn't they become a brocade night walk? It can be regarded as a good show of face in front of those former friends, and it would be great if His Highness could lend some soldiers and horses to the slaves. ”
"That's what it sounds like." Li Zhen said with a smile: "When the time comes, the palace will personally accompany you to see how brave your Black Mamba tribe is, if I can, I also want to personally select some warriors to form a new army, maybe it can get miraculous results." ”
The Black Mamba tribe is the tribe of Ben Yin - through this name, you can probably know how brave this tribe is, you must know that the Black Mamba is the name of a poisonous snake, but a kind of poisonous snake that is quite difficult to mess with, some tribes even regard it as a totem, and the tribe of Ben Yin dares to give this name, which shows how brave they are.
In fact, the Black Mamba can only be regarded as a small tribe in the steppes of central Africa, with a population of less than a thousand people, not even a medium-sized tribe - the reason why this is the case is that the living conditions on the grassland are too bad, after all, the living environment of the African steppe is more harsh than that of the Turkic steppe, and if you want to survive there, only strong force is not enough, and you have to need resources, not enough resources, No matter how brave a tribe is, it can only wait for death.
Although the warriors of the Black Mamba tribe are very brave, after all, this is a tribe that specializes in catching black mambas and other highly venomous snakes for a living, the black mamba is not only highly poisonous, two drops of venom can poison an adult, and the speed is also very fast, the fastest speed can reach 20 kilometers per hour, it is the fastest snake in the world, dare to fight with such a snake, without a little ability, only to die in Shekou - this is also the fate of most Black Mamba tribe warriors, catching the black mamba is too dangerous, Not only is it a combination of eyesight and reflexes, but it also requires a little luck, with the attack speed of the black mamba, as long as you are a little careless, you can only die of death.
Ben was famous in the neighborhood because he could catch the black mamba every time, and he learned the snake catching technique by fighting with snakes, and it was claimed that if he was targeted, absolutely no one could escape from him, and it was with this hand that he was able to get ahead from the Egyptian provinces, and he got the title of the first warrior in Egypt, and was favored by the governor of Egypt and became his personal general.
Later, he also relied on this hand to gain a foothold among the warriors under Li Zhen's Rulin, and later worked the battlefield in the Western Regions, breaking through such a big foundation as the Listening to the Wind Mercenary Group. At the beginning of the establishment of the Listening Wind mercenary, he also relied on this snake catching technique to convince one hero after another and take them under his command, thus creating the prerequisites for the rapid rise of Listening to the Wind - and the old Harvey is one of the representatives, it was in the competition that Ben Yin was knocked down five times in a row, and Harvey, who was still young at the time, completely obeyed this black man, and has been loyal since then and will never betray.
It can be said that this hand snake catching technique practiced by Ben Yin is a more important skill than his strange power, and it is also more deterrent than his strange power, after all, although the ability of innate divine power is not common, it is not nothing, not to mention that the divine power of this cause is not outstanding, at least compared with the strength of Fang Yiai's ability to drag the bull upside down, this cause is much worse.
But the reaction speed and hand speed that can capture the black mamba are not available to others, so to speak, if it is just a comparison of strength, the three causes may not be able to beat a Fang Yiai, but if it is a life-and-death struggle, it must be Fang Yiai's death - in the face of Ben Yin's god-like reaction power, Fang Yiai's so-called brute force is impossible to hurt Ben Yin, but on the contrary, as long as Fang Yiai dares to show a little flaw, with the reaction speed of Ben Yin and the hand speed that has been practiced by being single for many years, Fang Yiai couldn't dodge his lethal attack at all.
And although the warriors of the Black Mamba tribe are not as good as Ben Yin, they can catch snakes for so long without dying, and they naturally have the ability, which is enough for their small tribe to struggle in the African savannah.
But in Li Zhen's opinion, these people in the Black Mamba are a bunch of idiots, and they are simply a waste of resources - if they can have a flexible brain like Ben Yin, they will not always be a small tribe.
Since he can catch the black mamba, then the physique and hand speed are generally not too bad, such a person is simply a natural warrior, with this ability, what kind of snake can he catch? Grab resources directly with others? The most important resource in the African savannah is water, as long as there is enough water, even directly on the banks of the Nile to compete for a piece of survival, how can their tribes not develop? As long as they are given a hundred years to develop, perhaps the name of an empire with the Black Mamba tribe may not be necessarily.
But what are they doing?
With such a good skill, you actually catch snakes to play?
I just don't know what to do.
You deserve to suffer on the grassland.
In fact, it is also one of the reasons why Ben Yin left the tribe, and he once suggested to the chief that he hoped to change the development model of the tribe, even if it was better to be a mercenary than to catch snakes. But he was rejected and reprimanded by the chiefs and elders of the tribe who were content with the status quo, so that he lost face in front of his companions, and he resolutely left the tribe, and quickly broke into some fame, if he had not been caught by the horse and was captured, but had been developing under the governor of Egypt, perhaps it would not take him ten years to become a real general, riding a mighty horse, returning to his hometown with his fierce men, and proving himself right with practical actions.
It's a pity that he became a slave after all, and fell into the hands of Li Zhen, and he has been working for twenty years, and I don't know if there is any possibility of going back in this life.
I spent a day in the hospital today, and I just came back not long ago, sorry for the late update.
