Chapter 604: Dumb Warrior
Hu Bugui thought about it and understood: "General, what do you mean, Yujia wants to see what kind of medicinal powder is smeared on the horse's **?" ”
Lin Wanrong nodded, with the stubbornness of the girl in the crescent moon, she would definitely figure out what it was that could make her pony upset. It's a bit funny to think that she, with the dignity of the great Turkic khan, actually wants to personally investigate Ma **.
"I see." Chief Gao laughed confidently and said: "Brother Lin, don't worry, the main ingredient of the medicinal powder I gave you is sow milk in estrus, and the ingredient is lactating goat's milk, supplemented by several common spices and flowers. They are all inferior goods that I bought in Xingqing Mansion, and it is said that most of them are sold to the grassland, and the Hu people specially use them to breed mares. The first few times I was embarrassed to take it out, because this thing didn't have much effect on people, at most it was a burst of heat, but for cows, horses, mules and so on, it was a hundred trials and tried, and the effect was incomparable. It was originally intended for Brother Lin to interrogate the prisoners, but unfortunately it was not used, hehe, regret, it is also the good luck of those Hu people. This common thing on the grassland, even if Yujia can identify it, it will not be of much use. ”
This thing for interrogating prisoners?! What kind of trial is that? Hu Bugui shuddered, how could he listen to Lao Gao's words, and always feel that there was an evil smell?
It turned out to be for stallions, no wonder it was so powerful, Lin Wanrong laughed, it was a pity for the boss in his heart, it was all good green food made of pure milk, why let the beasts spoil it.
It was getting dark. There was a dazed and drowsy patch on the steppe, and a few dark *** shots shot from the head of the city of Kizil. The Hu people did not know how to make cowhide lanterns, and the city walls were lit by lit torches, and the grassland was cold and cold when the night wind blew, and the flames flickered and flickered. In less than a moment it was half gone, and the walls were dark. The Turks seem to have become accustomed to such scenes and are not surprised.
A fast horse galloped over and said a few words in Hu Bugui's ear, Lao Hu nodded, and said in a low voice: "General, Xu Zhen and they have wrapped the horse's hooves, and they can reach the designated position in an hour." ”
Lin Wanrong nodded, looking at the sparse queue entering the city in front of her. There were not many people left, and he waved his hand and shouted, "Kizil is right in front of you." Come with me, brothers! ”
Nearly forty men and horses roared in unison, turned their horses' heads, followed General Lin, and ran straight to the gate of Kizil.
Step by step, the royal court of the Hu people was getting closer and closer, and the rough cheeks of the Turks patrolling the city. It was clearly visible in the dim light of the fire. Thinking back on the journey of life and death for more than a month, just to wait for the arrival of this moment, everyone was instantly excited, Lin Wanrong grabbed the saddle tightly and calmed down the ups and downs of the mood.
The walls of Kizil are made up of huge unpolished stones, with abrupt edges and undulating corners, which can be seen from afar. Like a hedgehog with a shell, his hands and feet are nimble, and he can almost climb up to the top of the city step by step along the edges and corners of the stones.
Building castles. It is indeed not the specialty of the Turks, who stand under the rough walls of the ground. Lin Wanrong sighed in her heart.
"Stop, what tribe are you from?!" In front of the city gate, two Turkic guards stopped the horses that did not return. Ask loudly.
"We?!" Hu Bugui laughed, waved the earth rhino flag in his hand vigorously, and said majestically: "Yue tribe! Haven't you heard?! ”
If before the sheep holding competition, the ghost only knows what the Yue clan does. But at this moment, the situation has completely changed, and the news that the smallest Yueshi tribe on the grassland has won the sheep holding contest has already spread throughout Kizil and beyond. Not only did they defeat the Right King, but even the beautiful and intelligent Golden Sword Great Khan was snatched away by them, and the limelight was unparalleled for a while. And the news that the Great Khan took the initiative to invite the mute warriors of the clan to participate in the royal banquet was even more popular, and everyone knew it.
Seeing the earth rhino banner in Hu Bugui's hand, which was a symbol of the strong, the guard's face immediately changed, he touched his chest with one hand, and said respectfully: "Salute to the bravest warriors of the grassland, please enter the city!" ”
The taste of being worshipped by the Turks is indeed different, Hu Bugui was overjoyed when he heard it, let go of his hand, and laughed: "Warriors, follow me!" ”
"Roar-" The warriors behind him let out an earth-shattering roar, and slowly opened the gate of the underground city, and brushed their horses away. The scimitar in his hand slashed out a silver light at the same time, like a sudden lightning bolt, bright and dazzling, cold and incomparable. The Turkic guards couldn't stop chilling, and they really deserved to be the most powerful warriors in the grassland, and their momentum was better than that of the Right King tribe.
As soon as I stepped into the city gate, I heard bursts of cheers rushing towards me, and when I looked up, the wide street in front of me was densely packed, full of torches held high, and everywhere there was a crowd of people. The warriors who entered the city in the early stage have been surrounded by groups before the masks have been removed, and the Turks have carried horses and wine, lit bonfires on the streets, and sang and danced around them.
The Turkic soldiers on duty on the city wall also turned around happily and sang along with the crowd. Then again, the Hu people are not known for their discipline, and their fierceness and strong combat power are what make them terrible.
On both sides of the street, people crowded together, competing for onlookers, singing and dancing happily, it was really as lively as a festival.
Seeing such a scene for the first time, not to mention the surprise, Lin Wanrong glanced at Hu Bugui, and then snorted at the city tower behind him, Lao Hu waved his hand in understanding, and the more than 30 brothers behind him with the high chief disappeared into the crowd in twos and threes. Only a dozen people were left to follow.
The structure of the Hu royal court is even more simple and direct than imagined, and the long stone street under the feet can walk six Turkic horses side by side, which is the only decent street in Kizil.
Both sides of the street also follow the example of Dahua. The gathering place was full of shops, but the Turkic people's construction was extremely poor, they had no concept of building bricks and walls, tiles and mud, and a few broken wooden planks were built crookedly. It's a storefront. More merchants set up tents directly on both sides of the street, which can not only live at home, but also do business, which is extremely convenient. There are not a few brick walls in sight in the whole of Kizil, and there are simple wooden houses and white tents everywhere, and there is a mixture of people and horses, which is not even as good as a township market in Dahua.
Hu Bugui was by Lin Wanrong's side. Pouted, disdainful: "Just like this, dare to claim the capital?" Even our township in Jining is not as good! Hu Ren's bragging is too big! ”
Lin Wanrong shook her head with a smile: "You can't compare like this!" The Turks were nomadic at first, then developed into a herd dwelling, and it was not until these years that they began to learn from Dahua to build and settle in the city, which took several generations of hard work, but it would be too high for them to reach the level of architecture and living in Dahua overnight. It's not easy anymore! ”
"The Yue Clan!" There was an exclamation from the street, and I don't know which Turk recognized the banner Hu Bugui was carrying.
This cry is incredible. The street suddenly boiled, and countless Turks rushed over, surrounding Lin Wanrong and more than a dozen knights behind him, vying to see their demeanor. Everywhere there was a chatter and shouting, and the girls waved their little fists vigorously, their little faces flushed, and their crisp voices mixed in with them, which were very pleasant to hear.
"Brother Hu, what are they shouting?!" Lin Wanrong lowered her voice. Secretly.
"They said dumb, I'm going to marry you!" Lao Hu smiled and translated.
General Lin shuddered when he heard this, and hurriedly shrank his neck. Before you have seen me, you will marry me, and Turkic women are more powerful than men!
He was stunned for a moment. Several bonfires had been lit on the ground, and dozens of elated Turkic girls had been gathered. Dressed in the brightest festive costumes, holding hands, they surround them. Blowing a beautiful beard, he danced a cheerful dance. The fire shines on their youthful faces and delicate figures, and people can't help but be immersed in their fiery enthusiasm.
The cheers sounded in the sky, and it turned out to be a beautiful Turkic girl, bravely coming out, with bright red peach blossoms on her face, twisting her willow-like delicate waist, singing and dancing, and gradually approaching Lin Wanrong's horse.
This is the legendary famous "dumb", the strong man who snatched the beautiful and intelligent Great Khan!!
Many Turks had already recognized the origin of the horse's knighthood, and immediately there was a wave of applause and thunderous cheers, and the crowd crowded towards him. The Turkic maiden was at the forefront, her cheeks flushed, her swaying figure, and she glanced shyly at the mute knight on her horse, and then she hurried forward, and pressed her bright red face to his horse's face.
The surrounding Hu people were stunned for a moment, and then burst into thunderous applause, screaming everywhere, and even the guards on the tower of the city couldn't help but whistle and laugh. The girl's cheeks were instantly red as cherries, and she glanced at the mute knight shyly and expectantly, and turned and ran away.
"The beauty is favored, general, my subordinates have congratulated you!" Lao Hu grinned.
Lin Wanrong pouted puzzled: "What kind of beauty favors, where does the joy come from?!" ”
Hu Bugui smiled and said: "Hu Ren beauty took the initiative to give her arms, isn't this a joy?" Although you are the best friend of the Great Khan, ordinary women dare not marry you, but according to the rules of the Turks, if a woman takes the initiative to put her head on the cheek of the warrior's horse, it means that she is willing to spend a good night with the warrior, and no one can stop her, not even the Khan. Even if you are the king's man, they can still rob you and have a spring breeze with you. Of course, it's only for a while! ”
This is the prototype of a one-night stand? It's so tough!! General Lin was dumbfounded when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Brother Hu, let's go quickly, there is a lesson from the past, my fire can't flow out!" ”
With the girl in front taking the lead, the beauties in the back also followed suit according to the law, and they all rushed to the dumb. General Lin hurriedly pulled the reins of his horse and squeezed forward in the crowd, and old Hu Le laughed.
The streets were bustling, full of the smell of wine and laughter, and the Hu people were red in the face and red ears when they drank, and even the pace of dancing was a little chaotic. Looking forward from afar, a magnificent palace faintly reveals a corner, the eaves walk the wall, the golden tile glaze, only two miles away from the city gate, compared with the surrounding buildings, it is simply splendid.
It was the Imperial Palace of the Turks. Lin Wanrong and Lao Hu glanced at each other. Clenched his hands excitedly.
"Go away, go away—" In the crowd of excited cheers gathered in front of Yueshi, a few thick voices suddenly sounded, and the crowd was forcibly separated into a narrow passage by a group of Turkic soldiers in armor, escorting two beautifully dressed Turkic girls slowly past. Look in that direction, it is coming straight this way.
What's going on, Lin Wanrong was shocked, and hurriedly gave Hu Bugui a look, and everyone silently clenched the scimitar on their waists.
The Turkic soldiers struggled to separate the crowd, and the two girls walked to the side of the crowd and said coquettishly, "Are you from the Yue Clan?!" ”
"Exactly." Hu Bugui replied proudly.
A sweet smile appeared on the girl's face, and she said respectfully: "So, which one is the mute warrior of the famous grassland?!" ”
Dumb warriors? This name is very loud. Old Hu Qiang couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly pushed the stunned General Lin next to him: "This, this is the dumb warrior of the famous grassland land!! ”
"Ahh
The girl nodded, bowed slightly, and said, "Venerable warrior, you have promised the Great Khan to go to the palace banquet, and now that the feast has begun, why haven't you arrived yet?!" ”
What they say, the dumb can't understand a word, and their hearts are so anxious. Cold sweat brushes down. The two girls seemed to know that he didn't understand, so they asked with gestures, looking at the neat appearance, it seemed that someone had specially taught them, and Lao Hu also hid aside and secretly made eye gestures.
The feast has begun?! Lin Wanrong was startled, looked up, and sure enough, the Hu tribes in front of them were entering the palace, and only their tails were left outside. And the countless Turks around surrounded the Yueshi in the middle. Unable to move forward.
"We are the retinue of the Great Khan, and it was the Venerable Golden Sword Khan who sent us to fetch you." Seeing that the mute man was so anxious that he was at a loss, the two Turkic girls hurriedly comforted him softly: "The Khan said that you are a warrior." There will be a lot of people who will beat you up and want to take advantage of the opportunity to get your body. But. As a warrior, you must not be tempted if anyone dares to bully you. Tell the Khan that the Great Khan will not let them go! ”
Crescent sent someone to pick me up? And warned me to withstand temptation? What is this called? He shook his head weakly, unable to laugh or cry.
The girl pointed to the crowd around her and said loudly, "Say, are they bullying you?!" Don't be afraid, the Great Khan will call the shots for you! ”
The dumb man hurriedly waved his hand, and his heart was weak for a while, the Great Khan is in charge of me? What kind of world is this, women are stronger than men! Seeing that the mute warrior did not seem to be bullied, the two Turkic girls nodded with satisfaction, and one of them slapped his palm, and heard a pleasant wind chimes of "ding" and "ding".
In the distance, a pink gauze with a high veil suddenly came. The veil was carried by eight Turkic warriors, and the pink veil swayed in the wind like an ethereal cloud.
Through the gentle light veil, you can faintly see the soft red and golden brocade quilts, as well as a faint fragrance. Wherever the yarn went, it automatically separated a road, and all the Hu people bowed their eyes respectfully, stroked their chests and saluted, extremely respectful.
What is it?! Seeing the eight Turks carrying a beautiful sedan chair straight here, Lin Wanrong couldn't help but be surprised.
When the collapse was put away, it hung down to form a narrow passage, and the two Turkic girls bowed down at the same time and said softly: "On the order of the Great Khan, please ask the dumb warriors to ascend!" ”
Climb on?! Don't be old and dark this time, just look at the girl's movements to understand what they are talking about, the dumb face is white, this sedan chair is actually here to pick me up? No, such a pink tent, where is an old man sitting on, and he doesn't laugh at the dead when it is passed out?
"Warriors, please!" Without waiting for him to hesitate, the two maidens urged at the same time, and one of them even raised the flying pink veil and bent down to wait for him to take his seat. The men and women around him all looked at him with envious eyes.
The arrow is ready to fly, and it has to be sent. The dumb man gritted his teeth, glanced at Lao Hu, and slowly walked towards the tent.
As soon as she stepped in, the girl lowered the pink curtain, and the eight Turkic strong men worked hard at the same time, bringing him around, and the gauze was lifted high, and slowly walked towards the Turkic palace.
Falling on the soft Xiu Collapse, bursts of faint fragrance came to the nose, and Luo Ji was as smooth and soft as Yujia's skin.
Looking up at the pink tent dancing lightly beside him, he looked left and right, thought about it, and suddenly sighed, his face changed rapidly: "It's bad, do you want to spoil me?!" ”
