Chapter 410: Hu Bandit's Nest
Seeing that the hour had passed, Su Kemu looked at the breakfast that had already been prepared, and said, "Butler, why haven't Xiao Gongzi and Nana come out yet, you send someone over to take a look, are they all oversleeping?"
It stands to reason that it shouldn't, both of them are soul warriors, how can they oversleep like ordinary people.|.|
"Okay, I'll go and call Xiao Gongzi in person. "The butler told a maid to go to Martina's room, and he went to the room himself.
After a while, he came panting with two letters in his hand: "Oh no, master, Xiao Gongzi and Her Royal Highness the Princess are gone, and a letter was found in each of their rooms." ”
"What?" Su Kemu's eyes widened, "Bring it to me quickly." ”
He first read Xiao Chen's letter, and then looked at his granddaughter's, and after reading it, he wanted to cry without tears: "I didn't take you to play like this, but I said goodbye without saying goodbye together, leaving such a big mess for me, I'm so old!"
To tell the truth, he has been thinking about handing over his courage to Martina these days, letting Xiao Chen also participate, and using his ability to govern the border city and the Baishan clan well, it must be a piece of cake, and as an old man, he can enjoy Qingfu.
Unexpectedly, the two of them picked up together, and it was not difficult to see from the two letters that the two of them had no discussion beforehand, because Xiao Chen's letter was left for Su Kemu and Medina.
In contrast, her granddaughter's approach is even more excessive, and she doesn't ask for the consent of others, so she stupidly wants to follow others to the end of the world.
Is this the legendary elopement, the old man secretly slandered himself.
But no one is forcing you to be together, is it necessary to elope?
He raised his head and asked the housekeeper sharply, "When did Nana and Xiao Gongzi leave?"
"I don't know!" the butler spread his hands: "Otherwise, send someone to chase them quickly, maybe you can catch up with them." ”
Su Kemu nodded and said, "Do so, send more men, and chase them all the way north, be sure to chase them back!"
How did they know that Xiao Chen and Medina had been running wildly since dawn, and now they had run fifty or sixty miles, and they couldn't catch up at all.
The two of them rode on horseback and ate jerky, and the little marquis was surprised to find that the beautiful princess didn't bring anything except the purple gold crossbow and long sword he gave her.
As a last resort, he could only hand over a pot of milk tea, and the jerky that Martina was chewing was also the one he had just given.
Seeing the inquiring expression on the face of the little marquis, she blushed: "I was in a bit of a hurry when I went out, so I forgot to bring money and food, anyway, you have a lot of these things, can it be that you can't bear to be hungry?"
The little marquis shrugged: "I see that you didn't forget it because you were in a hurry, but you didn't think about bringing these things at all, a princess is a princess." ”
was exposed to the lie, the beautiful princess's face turned even redder, to be honest, she really has no concept of things like money, she has a grandfather at home, she doesn't have to worry about going out to play and hunting, everything is wrapped up in Xiao Chen, she doesn't have to learn any life skills at all.
"Don't worry, people will study hard and will never hold you back. The princess swore an assurance.
Xiao Hou Ye smiled: "It doesn't matter, when you go out, taking care of girls is what a man should do." Don't worry, I will definitely take care of you, otherwise when we go back to the border city next time, your grandfather will definitely chase me with a knife and cut it. ”
"Giggles, no, definitely not, how can he be willing to cut you!"
"Not necessarily, he's a criminal record, I have to be careful!" This is not a joke, Su Kemu can cut his son Kerim with his own hands, and there is something he can't do.
By the afternoon, they had traveled nearly three hundred miles, and the men and horses were exhausted.
Dozens of tents of different sizes appeared in front of them, like a barbarian tribe, and the little marquis proposed to go there for a night.
Although he put countless supplies in the bracelet, enough for two people to eat for several years, and he can camp in any place, but living alone for a long time will have a bad impact on people's thoughts, and contact with people is a necessary homework.
Especially for Medina, it is very important for her to learn to get along with people, taking advantage of her young age and still having a lot of plasticity, otherwise it will be difficult to make changes once the introverted personality is stereotyped.
I have to say that the little marquis has good intentions.
He took something out of the bracelet as a gift to the host, and the barbarian was very generous, and when he met the people who stayed overnight, he would very generously invite the guests to eat meat and drink wine.
Although people don't want to reciprocate, they can't eat and drink in vain.
At this moment, a team of fast men and horses appeared in front of the side and rushed towards the camp.
"Oh no, it's a bandit!" Medina exclaimed.
"Bandit, how do you know?" he asked, looking up.
Medina explained: "Their clothing, ordinary barbarians would never wear a red ribbon on their heads, this is the dress that only bandits have. They must be going to loot the tribe in front of them, so let's go and help. ”
Xiao Hou Ye smiled: "Observe carefully enough, but you neglected a little." ”
"Which point?"
"Look at their horses and their hands. He prompted.
Medina looked at the horses, and the knights were carrying many things on their horses, and some of them were carrying them, and as for their hands...... It was empty-handed, and no one drew a sword.
She looked at Xiao Chen with a suspicious look on her face and said, "Could it be that these bandits are going home?"
"That's right!" said with a smile: "Have you ever seen the bandits who didn't draw their knives before robbing, although those people had excited expressions on their faces, they were not the kind when they robbed, but only when they went home." ”
The beautiful princess said: "You still observe more carefully, since it is the nest of the bandits, let's not go to spend the night, lest the sheep fall into the tiger's mouth." ”
He nodded, although his strength was not low, and he could be at ease in the territory of the bandits, and even it didn't matter if he was in a more dangerous situation, but he had to consider Martina's safety, and he couldn't afford to make a mistake.
They turned their horses' heads and headed in the other direction.
Soon, they found another tribe's gathering place, also with dozens of tents of various sizes.
But the result surprised them, it turned out to be another bandit tribe.
The bandits make a living by robbing, and the tribes and caravans on the steppe are the targets of their robbery, and the small bandit organizations are composed of dozens of people, the slightly larger ones are a few hundred, and the largest gangs reach thousands of people.
Hu bandits are also people, the purpose of robbery is nothing more than to support the family, and even some tribes combine grazing and robbery, when they put down the knife, they are serious herdsmen, once they pick up the knife, they are heinous Hu bandits.
It's normal to think about it, there is a bandit tribe not far away, and another tribe can survive here, only people who do the same thing.
"Didn't we break into the bandits' den?" said Medina when she met the third bandit tribe.
Xiao Hou Ye smiled bitterly: "It's very likely, it seems that we have to deal with them." Don't worry, they treat us as guests, we treat them as hosts, if they see us as fat sheep, then I'm sorry, who are the sheep is not necessarily!"
