~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Two people and four riders, one in front and three behind, walking in the vast wilderness in silence.

Ma Han turned around and beckoned to the back: "Come here." ”

Niannu raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, drove the horse closer, and bent over: "Master, please command." ”

Uh, such a pure and beautiful Lori with an alien style, it is too wicked to say to you respectfully, "Master please command", this sentence is too evil......

Fortunately, after all, Ma Han is a person who has rolled on the color knife, and he still knows what to do on what occasion. And now, it's talk time.

"Nian Nu, right, I gave you such a long time to ease and adjust, and my mood should be almost calm, right?" Ma Han stretched out his hand and twisted her millet hair. Ma Han is most satisfied with her hair, natural and soft, reflecting the sun, flashing and flashing, like a lock of gold.

Fortunately, although the Han slaves were all left and bearded, they still maintained their own ethnic hairstyle and habits, and did not wear their hair like the Karasuma people. And the Karasuma people may not have been as ferocious as the Jurchens in later generations who "kept their hair without their heads", perhaps in order to distinguish the Hannu from the clansmen, and did not force the Hannu to wear their hair.

Nian Nu glanced at the young and handsome new master with the corner of his eyes in surprise, and said with a little shyness and trepidation: "Nian Nu has just separated from his grandfather, some, some ...... Ask the master for forgiveness. ”

"Understanding, understanding, human nature." Ma Han nodded and said, "Now I'm going to sue you what you need to do for me." ”

"Master, please command." Nian Nu's voice was inexplicably worried, and the slender hand holding the reins trembled slightly irrepressibly, and his hands were rigidly twisted around the reins.

Ma Han didn't have time to pay attention to the little girl's subtle thoughts, and continued according to his own thoughts: "Are you familiar with the terrain around here?" ”

"Yes, the slaves and maids have lived in this grassland for twelve years, migrated to six grasslands, and within a radius of five hundred miles, the slaves and maids are all familiar." It turned out that it wasn't what he thought, and Niannu was in a slightly calmer mood.

The guide was right, and Ma Han was very satisfied, and smiled: "Very good, it's noon, let's go to the woods over there to avoid the sun, and then you provide me with a suitable place to stay nearby." ”

"Yes, master."

The shade above his head is like a cover, and the beauty around him is like jade. With a harmless smile and infectious words, Ma Han slowly eliminated the strangeness and fear of Nian Nu. The children of the grassland, who are honest and honest in nature, will not have too much twisting and pretentiousness, and once they recognize you, they will open their hearts to you.

After talking to Guò, Ma Han learned that the reason why Nian Nu looked so different from the Han people was because her mother was a female slave girl who was captured by the Huns (later Persia, now Iran), who was repeatedly destroyed and resold and lived in Xianbei. In the conflict between the Xianbei people and the Karasuma people, they were taken captive by the Karasuma people. Because he angered the nobles of the tribe, he was disfigured by the whip. In the past, the charming lady of peace finally became an ugly woman who everyone disliked. Then she was given to her father by her master, and then she was born to her, and my grandfather told her that she was very much like her mother when she was not disfigured, and she was more beautiful than her mother.

And what does this beauty mean to a girl who is saddled with slavery? Means disaster! Specific to Niannu, it is not only a disaster for herself, but also a disaster for the entire Hannu group.

Just half a month ago, I happened to hear the tribal lord who recited the good name of the slave and sent someone to ask for it. As a slave, every qiē belongs to the master, including his own children. After Nannu's mother gave birth to her, she died of childbirth, and her father died early, and it was her grandfather who brought her up.

Old man Muji is a very experienced veterinarian, and he has accepted a lot of Hannu apprentices, and has a high prestige among Hannu, and because he is a scarce talent in the tribe, even if he is a big man, he has to give some face. If not, there is no need to ask for good words and directly rob people.

For the old man Muji, who has lost his son and daughter-in-law and has only one relative, Nian Nu is his eyeballs, how can he destroy his granddaughter like a flower and bone with the bone power of a wild cow! At this time, the apprentices led by Tang Nu had already had enough of abuse, and persuaded the old man Muji to flee several times, but the old man Muji couldn't make up his mind for a long time, and the matter of asking for a girl finally became the fuse.

So, the storm half a month ago kicked off the prelude to the escape.

Ma Han finally understood that the reason why the old man Muji reluctantly changed his granddaughter to weapons was because he was too guilty. Because of his granddaughter, he put everyone's lives in danger. At this time, as long as there is the slightest chance of increasing the chances of survival, he is even willing to give his life, including his most beloved "eyeball". And Nian Nu is also willing to be a slave because of guilt. One qiē, just to give everyone one more chance to escape and escape back to their hometown south of the Great Wall.

The escape of Han slaves like them happens every year in the five counties of Hanbian, and there are successes and more failures, so this time, can they succeed?

This is the chaotic era at the end of the Han Dynasty, the real state of existence of the border people in the north. Ma Han sighed and comforted: "I haven't seen how your young men are skilled, so it's not good to evaluate." If the other group of Karasuma people who are hunted for are similar in equipment and number to the Karasuma group, then if they are replaced with the hard bows and arrows I took from the Khanlu King's cavalry guards, as well as the swords, axes and armor, the odds of victory will be increased by at least fifty percent. ”

"It would be nice if that were the case, Brother Tangnu and they are very good at horseback archery, and they were rewarded by King Khan Lu at the Cage City Conference last year. Yes! The master just said...... All those bows and arrows were taken from the horsemen of the king of Khanlu? ”

Nian Nu originally knelt beside Ma Han upright, handed him water and cloth towels to test his sweat, and when he heard this, he jumped up like being burned by fire.

"Sit down, sit down, don't get so excited." Ma Han said casually while trying to sweat, "The bow and arrow were taken from King Khan Lu when he rode the guard, and the sword and axe armor were 'sent' by a guy named Gao Gan in the Jizhou Army." ”

Niannu looked up at the young master in disbelief and muttered, "I heard that the cavalry guards of the King of Khan Lu are the strongest warriors and the best marksmen selected from each tent, and even Brother Tangnu was not selected for the ......"

Ma Han nodded in agreement: "When I was in Hebei, I heard the rumor of 'Karasuma Jing riding the crown of Youyan', and it was really powerful. If I had encountered them a month ago, I might have been the one lying down. ”

"Hebei! Is the owner a Hebei person? I heard my grandfather say that I am also from Hebei and is a beautiful place called Handan. I'd love to check it out! Nian Nu looked back at Nan Gu and was infinitely fascinated.

Ma Han leaned against the big tree and muttered, "Me too, I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time, although it's been almost two thousand years......"

When Ma Han said "two thousand years", his voice was vague, and Nian Nu didn't hear it clearly, only two years. At this moment, the two homesick people actually had a wonderful resonance, and the distance was shortened.

It's a pity that this subtle atmosphere only lasted for a short time, and a sharp hoof sound was heard in the distance, which broke a qiē.

Ma Han jumped up, looked into the distance for a while, looked back at Gu Niannu and smiled: "It seems that someone is unwilling to let your pearl fall into my palm!" ”

Niannu blushed and stood up: "What ......" Before the words fell, her face changed, because she also saw the three knights running in the distance.

Ma Hawn pursed his lips and whistled, and was leading the three war horses to run quickly with silver arrows in the attitude of "leading big brother", and arched Ma Haw's neck affectionately with his nose. Ma Han made love with the silver arrow for a while, reached out and took off the leopard bow, and drew three more iron arrows.

At this time, Nian Nu had seen the appearance of the three knights clearly, and was surprised and delighted, and threw himself at the feet of the horseman, and pleaded with him: "Master, don't hurt them. Nian Nu is willing to do a qiē for the master. ”

This sentence is more imaginative than the previous sentence "Master please command", but Ma Han did not have time to be dark, because he had to face three two-stone hard bows and iron arrows. And these hard bows and sharp arrows, an hour ago, belonged to him.

It was Donnu and two of his accomplices.
