"We lost!" The middle-aged tribal leader sighed, "That person is the first person I have ever seen who can defeat Daru, and I'm afraid he is the only one in the world!" Get out of the way and let them go! ”

Someone around was about to convey the leader's order, but was stopped by Soma: "No, you can't let him go, father, I want him!" ”

Soma's words startled the tribal leader, what kind of joke, a person who can defeat Daru, is it what she wants? He said sternly: "Daughter, if you want other things, your father can give them to you, but you can't ask for that person, he doesn't belong to his father's property!" ”

"No, I want him, I don't want any other daughters except him!" Soma is playing a petty game.

The middle-aged tribal leader had a headache, his daughter was spoiled by him since she was a child, she gave her whatever she wanted, and even managed to send her to the monastery in Constantinople to study, Soma stayed in Constantinople for a while and didn't want to come back, if he hadn't pretended to be sick and tricked this daughter back, it is estimated that Soma would not have come back so soon. It's better now, ask him for a man directly, the key is that this man is not his tribe warrior, and people won't listen to him.

The middle-aged tribal leader touched his forehead helplessly and said, "Then you sue your father, what do you want him to do?" Did you fall in love with him for his looks, or did you fall in love with his bravery? ”

Soma said: "That barbarian man is so ugly, how can I like him?" ”

"Ugly? Although my father was in his forties, he was not old enough to see clearly, and the man was obviously of the Oriental race. It's very different from our Western race, if you look at him ugly, maybe people will think you're ugly! They are all black-haired and black-eyed. Yellow-skinned, wouldn't he think you're a white-skinned, blue-eyed, red-haired monster? The tribal leader said disapprehantly.

According to Soma's temperament, he shouldn't have listened to any persuasion at all, but this time Soma seemed to really listen, she looked at Qin Dong and thought about it and nodded: "Father may have some truth in what he said, maybe it's not good for us here, but it's good in his opinion." What seems good to us here, bad to him, well. I don't think he's ugly, but you're going to give him to me, father! ”

The tribal leader said, "Daughter, didn't my father say that he is not my father's subordinate warriors. and not a slave of his father. How to give it to you? If you have the ability, let him follow you yourself! ”

After hearing this, Soma's eyes rolled and she smiled coquettishly: "Father, this is what you said!" After speaking, he looked at Daru, who was almost recovered next to him, and asked, "Daru, are you okay?" Can you still walk? ”

Dalu's body is indeed strong, and after being hit several times by Qin Dong with strong strength in a row, he only recovered after such a short period of time, he is indeed not an ordinary person, he bowed his head and said, "Yes, master." Daru let the host down! ”

Soma was very generous, walked over and patted Daru's arm and smiled, "It's okay." You are the toughest warrior, that Eastern barbarian has just won you by trickery, you don't have to be afraid of him, if you are all right, come with me, and we will follow him and see where he goes! ”

"Yes, master!" Daru picked up Soma and put it on his shoulder, his shoulders were broad and thick, but Soma was more than enough to sit on his shoulder, Qin Dong was dumbfounded over there, is this really a realistic version of Beauty and the Beast.

When the tribal leader heard that Soma was going with Qin Dong, he didn't know where to go, so he was in a hurry, and immediately shouted: "Hey, hey, daughter, you can't leave your father alone, you still have to inherit this bit of family business from your father!" ”

Soma sat on Daru's shoulder and turned around and waved his hand back: "Father, go back, the woman will come back after playing outside for a year and a half!" ”

After hearing this, the tribal leader sighed secretly, pointed to a few people around him and said, "You guys secretly follow Soma, protect her, don't let her be wronged, and send news back every ten days!" ”

"Yes, Patriarch!" One of the older tribal guards saluted.

But it was said that Soma sat on Daru's shoulder and walked in front of Qin Dong, and said coquettishly: "The barbarian from the east, you won, my father promised to let you go, but you have to take me, I know that you are going to Constantinople, and I will also go there, and you will have to pay for every expense on this road, no problem, right?" ”

"Why?" Qin Dong blurted out, he really had a headache, he subconsciously thought that this eccentric girl was definitely not a character to mess with, not only proficient in Greek, but also flexible in mind, perverse, and a super powerful follower, with this girl, he couldn't beat or scold, he could only eat and drink, this wasn't with an ancestor by his side, who could stand this?

Soma said: "It's up to me here, if you don't agree, you won't be allowed to leave!" ”

Qin Dong said angrily: "So you want to go back on and break the agreement? ”

"I'll regret it, I'll break the agreement, what do you want? If you don't promise to take me with you, and you're responsible for my expenses on the way, I won't let you go!" "That's when Soma started to play a scoundrel.

"You ......" Qin Dong was simply stunned by Soma, but he couldn't help it, he couldn't fight with her tribe because he didn't agree to pay her, right? This is not a good idea, he took a deep breath, soothed the year, did not let himself be angry, and finally had to agree: "Okay, I will take you, and I will be responsible for your consumption along the way, but you can't make trouble for me!" ”

"That's it!" Soma happily agreed, patted Daru's head and said, "Daru, let's go!" ”

……

Luleb.

Qin Dong and others arrived two days later in the interior city of the Thrace region in the western part of the Eastern Roman Empire, and settled here to rest, that night to pursue Pedro and his cavalry, Qin Dong had six Hun cavalry wounded, can not march for a long time, so as not to aggravate the injury, on the other hand, they also need to wait for Pethius and Gebuus and others to catch up and go to Constantinople together, so they chose to wait for them in Luleb.

At noon that day, Qin Dong had just eaten lunch and was about to take a nap, when a guard came in and said, "My lord! ”

"Huh? Can I help you? Qin Dong saw the guards come in to report but didn't speak. A bit of a surprise.

The guard said with a bitter face: "My lord, you let the villain follow Miss Soma, and the villain has been following her from yesterday to today." The owner of the tavern asked her for money, but she not only refused to give it, but also let Daru beat the owner of the tavern, and the villain only went out to pee for a while because of the urgency to pee, and did not give money in time, so this happened. Now the owner of the tavern sent a complaint to the sheriff, who sent for Soma and Daru, who had instructed Daru to wound dozens of their city guards. Now the two sides are facing off in the tavern".

In ancient times, the city guards were basically responsible for maintaining law and order, and the sheriffs were mainly responsible for and managing the city guards. But there are differences. The city guards are responsible for law and order in peacetime, and once there is a war, they also participate in the war like an army, while the ancient Chinese officials and catchers basically do not participate in wars, and if there is a war, those officials and catchers are afraid that they can run faster than rabbits.

Qin Dong couldn't help but stroke his forehead in distress when he heard the report, he knew that this Soma was definitely not the kind of person who could sit still, and it would be in line with her character if she didn't make a little trouble. Now that it had happened, he couldn't ignore it. If Soma finally told him about it, he was afraid that it would be worse, and he immediately said, "Go, take me over to see!" ”

"Yes, sir!" The guard agreed, and immediately took Qin Dong to the tavern where the incident happened, Qin Dong also brought a dozen guards before going out, so as not to talk about it and fight at that time, it is right to bring more people.

Everyone rode their horses and quickly rushed to the tavern where the incident occurred, at this time the tavern was surrounded by the citizens of the city who were watching the excitement on the third floor and the outer three floors, this was still the outermost, and there were no less than dozens of City Guard soldiers wearing leather armor, wearing fast heads, and holding spears around the door of the tavern, and there were more than a dozen wounded soldiers on the ground, these people were humming and chirping one by one, obviously beaten by the giant Daruna.

Among the soldiers was an officer on a tall horse and in delicate chain mail, most likely the leader of the City Guard soldiers, or perhaps the City Sheriff himself.

Qin Dong and the others rode over, and the citizens who were surrounding to watch the excitement quickly made way for Qin Dong and the others to enter the inner circle, and after entering the inner circle, Qin Dong observed it, and saw the officer on horseback in the city guard at a glance, so he asked a citizen next to him: "Do you know who is riding a horse?" ”

"Isn't that Lord Sheriff Baka?"

After Qin Dong got the answer, he had a bottom in his heart, and immediately rode over and shouted, "Lord Baka! ”

Hearing someone shouting to him, Sheriff Baka looked back and saw a man who resembled a Hun on horseback, and asked, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”

Qin Dong saluted on his horse and said: "My lord, my name is Bul, I am a merchant from the Xiongnu Empire, and the people inside are the slaves of the villain, because I don't understand the customs here, I offended the adults and the soldiers of the adults, I will apologize to the adults!" The villain is willing to compensate for the loss, hoping that the adults will see that they are not yet free from barbarism and do not understand etiquette, and magnanimously forgive their sins! ”

Baka snorted coldly: "Is it because of barbarism that he doesn't understand etiquette, so Lord Ben wants to connive at this kind of thing that disturbs the peace of the city?" If they are not punished, how will this lord maintain law and order in the city in the future? In the final analysis, this matter is also caused by your master's lax discipline of slaves, and the official will also impose a fine on you, because of your lax discipline, the slaves will recklessly harm the citizens and disturb the peace, you must pay a fine of four gold coins, otherwise you can't leave the city, your two slaves have a huge impact on the security of the city, and this lord must arrest them back and imprison them for a period of time as punishment! ”

Qin Dong's mind moved, and after dismounting, he walked to Baka's side and whispered, "My lord, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Baka seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time, got off the horse, followed Qin Dong to the side, after the two stood still, Qin Dong said in a low voice: "My lord, I really don't dare to hide it, my lord, the two slaves inside were bought by the villain from the Transcaucasian Sharon the year before last, when the battle of Sharon had just ended, the giant slave inside killed more than 200 Hun warriors in one day in the battle of Shalon, which alarmed our Attila Da Danyu at that time, in order to capture him, the Hun army lost more than 100 warriors, but he was unscathed, In the end, he was arrested because he was too tired and out of strength, that guy is simply a fierce god, the Huns were going to kill him, but he was bought by the villain, the adult, the villain thinks, in order not to expand the situation, the adult or return them to the villain to discipline as well, the villain is willing to be responsible for the losses they caused, and compensate for the loss of a qiē and the medical expenses of the soldiers under the adult, this is a little gift from the villain to the adult, and please accept it! With that, he quietly stuffed three gold bars into Baka's hand.

Baka looked down and saw that it was a gold bar in his hand, which made him very happy, a gold coin in this year has been so thin that it weighs only a few grams, and the two gold bars weigh six hundred grams, he hurriedly stuffed the gold bar into his pocket with great joy, and was very satisfied with Qin Dong's superiority, nodded and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, so let's do it, this official will sentence you to compensate the tavern owner for the medical expenses and the loss of the tavern A total of two gold coins, and the medical expenses of the soldiers of this official are one gold coin each, a total of sixteen gold coins!" ”

Qin Dong hurriedly saluted and said, "Yes, my lord, follow the judgment of my lord!" ”

After the two secretly reached an agreement, Baka immediately allowed Qin Dong to enter the tavern to call the two out, and he gathered the soldiers of the City Guard, and carried away the wounded, and found the tavern owner who was beaten and announced the verdict on the spot, the tavern owner was very angry after hearing the verdict, he was beaten so badly, and the tavern was basically smashed, and the loss must have been several times that of two gold coins, but now Baka ruled that Qin Dong only compensated him with two gold coins, knowing that it might be that Baka received Qin Dong's benefits, but he couldn't help it.

Qin Dong had already walked into a messy tavern, which was full of dust, the clay pot soup spoon was shattered, and the food and spilled soup were everywhere, Qin Dong didn't see Soma and Daru in the tavern, and finally found these two people in the kitchen, this pair of beauties and beasts actually hid in the kitchen and gulped meat and drank wine, when Qin Dong entered, there were already a lot of bones on the kitchen floor, and the roasted barbecue meat in the dustpan had already seen the bottom.

When Soma saw Qin Dong coming, he shouted happily: "Qin, come and taste the barbecue here, it tastes very good, but unfortunately it has been eaten by Dalu, a big-bellied man, I still have a piece here, you eat!" ”

Seeing Soma's innocent expression, Qin Dong couldn't get out of the fire in his belly, and barely squeezed out a little smile to take the barbecue and take a bite. (To be continued......)
