Chapter 45: Angu's Doubts

Angu's words and his attitude of being ready to die caused Xingshu, Ma Fei and Chen Taidong to be drenched in a bucket of cold water and plunged into the abyss of despair.

Chen Taidong supported his body and stood up: "Without further ado, we have to leave tonight." ”

Ma Fei looked at An Gu and said, "How can we be sure that what he said is true?" Maybe he had some other purpose? ”

Angu squinted at Ma Fei while eating meat: "That's simple, you guys were farting before, just heal your injuries." ”

After saying that, Angu looked at the torture technique with a provocative look.

"It's better to believe what you have than what you don't." Torture frowned and analyzed, "Coupled with this tribe's attitude towards us, I don't think Angu should be lying. ”

Angu laughed: "There is finally a smart person." ”

Chen Taidong deliberately walked to the door curtain, and when he lifted the door curtain, he saw two big men standing outside the door, holding long knives, and lowered the door curtain again, he knew very well that in his current state, he couldn't leave at all.

Xingshu looked at Chen Taidong and said: "Uncle Chen, even if we are not injured, even if we have guns in our hands, we may not be able to deal with the people of this tribe, their number is a hundred times higher than ours, and they all live on horseback, and the horses they raise will definitely not listen to our commands, maybe a whistle, the horses we stole will carry us back." ”

Chen Taidong looked very sluggish, very different from before: "I thought about it, there is only one chance for us to escape, and that is when we are all healed, they will send us to be the best in the snowstorm." ”

Torture nodded: "I think so too, that's the only chance." ”

"That may be an opportunity for the two of you, but ...... for her," Angu pointed at Ma Fei with a lamb bone in his hand, "it's too late for her, because before you are sent to be sacrificed, the chief here will hold a big wedding to marry this young lady, and according to the custom of the steppe, there is no one who will not be married after the sacrifice, and it is before that." ”

Ma Fei was stunned, subconsciously looking at the torture, although she was already trying to keep her composure, she naturally looked at the torture with a pleading look.

"Planning has to be ahead of schedule!" The torture technique immediately said, subconsciously grabbing Ma Fei's hand, "If you can't take Ma Fei with you, then there is no point." ”

Chen Taidong immediately nodded in agreement, but his nod was weak, because he knew very well that he was old, and with such a serious injury, he couldn't do anything at all, and would only become a burden to the torture and others.

Chen Taidong thought about it and made a decision, just before he was about to say this decision, Ma Fei spoke first: "It's really not good, I'll stay to cover you, you escape, after you escape, find a way to save me." ”

The torture technique immediately said: "No! ”

At this time, Ma Fei's mood was very calm: "Torture, listen to me, you want to escape, there are only two chances, the first is the day when the leader is going to marry, even if they are traditional nomads, on the day of the leader's wedding, they will definitely let down their vigilance, this is the best time, and the second is when they send you to the snowstorm to be the best." ”

After speaking, Ma Fei didn't wait for the torture technique to object, and took a deep breath and said: "Maybe I have become the wife of the leader, and I can also provide a lot of convenience for your escape, but when the time comes, don't forget me, remember to come back and save me." ”

After hearing this, his heart was sour, and he immediately said: "Impossible, we have to go together, it is impossible to sacrifice you in order to escape!" ”

Angu accosted beside him: "Don't live up to this young lady's kindness, what she said is the only feasible way at the moment, if you lose this opportunity, then there will be no next time, I agree!" ”

After Angu finished speaking, he raised his oily hand high, and as soon as he raised it, he was grabbed by the torture technique.

Angu frowned and glared at the torture technique, but his brow quickly expanded, because he saw that the punishment technique's eyes were full of murderous aura.

Angu said in a low voice: "You...... You want...... What do you want to do? ”

The torture shook off An Gu's hand, grabbed him by the collar, dragged him to him, and said word for word: "Ma Fei is my fiancΓ©e, do you understand?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Ma Fei couldn't help but be surprised, and Chen Taidong also looked at the excited torture technique with some surprise.

Angu looked at the eyes of the torture technique and nodded slowly: "Understood." ”

Torture Shu said again: "Remember, if you want to sacrifice Ma Fei in the future so that we can escape, I will reveal your identity as a secularizer of the Golden Eagle Tribe to the people of this tribe, you know what will happen to you at that time, right?" ”

Although Angu was very angry, because he was not an opponent of torture, he had to nod his head vigorously: "Remember." ”

The torture technique pushed Angu away, and he sat there panting, because he had been trying too hard before, causing his whole body to ache. Ma Fei grabbed his hand and wanted to say a word of thanks, but realized that at this time, the words of thanks could no longer express the feelings in her heart, so she had to say nothing, just hold on tightly to the torturer, and was unwilling to let go.

After thinking for a long time, he raised his eyes to Angu and asked, "What if I tell the leader here that Ma Fei is my fiancΓ©e, no, my wife?" Will he stop? ”

Angu shook his head, just shook his head: "I advise you that it's better not to do that." ”

The torturer asked, "Why?" Answer me! ”

Angu said: "I have said before, in their eyes, this young lady is already a goddess given by the god of nature, and we just escaped by luck, and we must be sent to the sacrifice in the snow storm twice, to put it bluntly, this young lady's identity is close to the god, and we are just cattle and sheep, although it will indeed make the leader have some scruples, but ......"

Angu stopped when he said the word "but", but kept shaking his head.

Torture said angrily, "But what? Don't talk half-way, make it clear! ”

"But there may be a silver lining, but there is too little hope." Angu shook his head and said, "As far as I know, if you do that, you are challenging the leader, and the leader will definitely accept your challenge for the sake of his identity and the bride he is about to marry, and I don't know what will happen when the time comes." ”

When Chen Taidong heard the words "a glimmer of life", he immediately asked: "What do you mean that you don't know?" Just tell me what you know, and maybe there's a way. ”

Angu sighed: "As for what he will do after accepting the challenge, I really don't know, but the only thing that is clear is that if this young lady rejects his marriage proposal, plus you challenge him to take the bride away, once you win and pass the challenge given to you by the tribe's representative of the god of nature, we can all leave alive." ”

After listening to the torture, he looked at Ma Fei: "This is the only way, if it doesn't work, it will work!" ”

Ma Fei didn't know what to say, she could tell from Angu's tone that this kind of challenge was a life and death, and she didn't want to risk the torture because of herself.

Chen Taidong leaned to the side, sighed slightly, and said: "The torture technique is right, you can't sacrifice anyone for yourself, but the torture technique does this, in case something happens, it is also equivalent to sacrificing him, we have to think of a backup escape plan in case of accidents." ”

Angu shook his head and said, "There is no other way, what the torture technique says is indeed the only feasible way." ”

Torture remembered something at this time, and asked, "Angu, why did you become a secular?" We're in a boat now, and you have to at least tell us why, and the main thing is, why did you help Cusco to go to the Four Seasons Mountain? Without understanding this, there is no way for us to be 'friends'. ”

The torture deliberately put the word "friend" very seriously, as a reminder to Angu that they were only forced to stand with Angu for now.

"As you can see, I'm an alternative!" Angu looked down at his body, "I am the strangest person in the tribe, for as long as I can remember, I have had a nickname, called 'Mountain Demon', only the legendary mountain demon in the Four Seasons Mountain can be so short and ugly, so, from the time I was born until I was 16 years old, I lived in ridicule and white eyes......"

The people of the Golden Eagle Tribe have an average height of about 1.85 meters, and almost none of them are shorter than 1.8 meters.

Angu sat there and said blankly: "I didn't know who my parents were when I was born, I was raised by a witch doctor, and naturally became a witch doctor, because of the special identity of the witch doctor, I must choose the ugliest child from the tribe to serve, so that I can use my unique appearance to cross the yin and yang and deter ghosts." At the time, I thought that I would be like that for the rest of my life, and that as long as I became a qualified witch doctor, I would be respected by the rest of the tribe, who knew that it would backfire. ”

Until Angu officially became a witch doctor at the age of 16, he was not seen by other people in the tribe with a straight eye, and there were even rumors that his mother gave birth to him as a mongrel dwarf because of his fornication with the mountain demon, which made Angu unable to raise his head in the tribe, and he also realized that no matter what he did, he might not be able to get the respect he deserved in this tribe, and he was confused, and he believed in the rumors that his father was a mountain demon, so he decided to enter the Four Seasons Mountain to find his relatives and find the warmth of his family that truly belongs to him. Even if it really becomes a mountain demon hated by the Ning people.

On a hunting day, while most of the tribe was leaving, Angu walked into the Four Seasons Mountains without looking back, taking his belongings as a witch doctor and telling his teacher that he would leave the tribe forever and never return.

When Chen Taidong heard this, he asked, "You went to Four Seasons Mountain when you were 16 years old?" What's out there? ”

Angu sighed: "How to say it, I don't know how to describe it, to describe it with the words I learned later, at the beginning of walking into the Four Seasons Mountain, I thought I had come to a paradise, where there are many beautiful animals that I have never seen before, as well as endless fruits, endless mountain spring water, pleasant climate, I don't have to wear heavy leather jackets all day long, but all this makes me even more disgusted with the tribe, because in the legend of the tribe, once you enter the Four Seasons Mountain, it is a dead end, there is hell, And the ancestors of the Golden Eagle Tribe, it was through hell and at the end of the Four Seasons Mountains that they gained the power to conquer the Altai Mountains......"

Ma Fei sat there and muttered the words of Angu: "Walk to the end of the Four Seasons Mountain? How can there be such a bizarre statement? ”

Torture also said: "Shouldn't you go to the top of the Four Seasons Mountain?" What does the end mean? ”

Angu shook his head: "I don't understand, after I lived there for a while, I climbed up halfway up the Four Seasons Mountain, and when I climbed halfway up the mountain, I understood what hell is, there is no longer a paradise, but a barren, at a glance, in addition to the snow, it is the totem and people frozen by the cold wind." ”

"People?" Chen Taidong was taken aback, "What do you mean?" ”

Angu said: "There are many people who died there, they were all frozen into popsicles, they were dressed differently, and they looked like outsiders, and I remembered that my master said to me that many people covet the treasures in the Four Seasons Mountain, but the tribe has never worried that these people will steal the treasure and the power belonging to the tribe, because the mountain gods of the Four Seasons Mountain will punish them, because no one can go back alive after entering the Four Seasons Mountain, and the scene I saw at that time is the best proof." ”

The torturer was puzzled: "But you left alive?" ”

"I left alive, and that's because I didn't continue." Angu smiled slyly, "I was timid, I left there and returned to the paradise at the foot of the mountain, but when I returned there, I was surrounded by the group of golden eagles hovering in the sky, I knew that I was dead, they came to me!" ”

Angu was captured alive by the Golden Eagle Knight of the tribe, but he did not bring him back to the tribe, because he voluntarily gave up his identity when he left, and the people in the tribe originally thought that he was an alternative relationship, so they sent him directly to the other end of the mountain, where they threw him away, and told him that from now on, his name was Angu, and he was the secularizer of the Golden Eagle tribe, and he could never return to the tribe.

Angu recalls this, but he smiles with satisfaction: "When I saw them riding away, I was not sad or painful, on the contrary, I was very happy, I realized that I was reborn and would never be trapped in one place and discriminated again." ”

"Then you left and went to study, but you didn't give up and returned to the Four Seasons Mountain, you want to use the new knowledge you learned to defeat the so-called mountain gods of the Four Seasons Mountain?" ”

Angu nodded: "Yes, I went to China, maybe it was really God's will, let me go to this most mysterious and powerful country, in China I learned a lot of knowledge, so that I know what is going on with the various tribes on the grassland, and I also deduced the origin of the Golden Eagle tribe from the unclear information, and I also probably know what they are protecting!" ”

After saying that, Angu smiled to himself, smugly: "But I won't tell you, don't threaten me, even if you kill me now, I won't say it!" ”

Xingshu glanced at Ma Fei and Chen Taidong, and asked, "I only want to ask you one question, after you arrived in China, did you go to our Inner Mongolia?" There, who taught you that knowledge, this man is certainly not an ordinary person, I need to know his name. ”

Angu was taken aback, he didn't expect the torture technique to capture the point of his words so quickly.

Angu's sudden silence also made the torture technique realize that his speculation was correct, this matter was definitely not that simple, from Angu's point of view, his biggest wish was to leave the Golden Eagle Tribe and start a new life, at most it was to take revenge on the tribe, but it was absolutely impossible to have any thoughts about the Four Seasons Mountain, if he really had the idea of wanting to find out what was in the Four Seasons Mountain, he would not have retreated in the first place.

Therefore, in Angu's narrative, the most crucial questions are, first, what did he see in the Four Seasons Mountain? What did you get? Second, why would the people of the Golden Eagle Tribe let him go so simply and make him a secular? This point of torture is inferred from the way of doing things of the Ural Khan tribe where he belongs, because this primitive tribe will not let anyone go easily, how can it be possible to expel Angu directly like that, not to mention that Angu has also been to the Four Seasons Mountain? Third, how could Angu be so coincidental to meet a capable person in Inner Mongolia who could teach him so much knowledge? Who is this capable person? If Angu comes back, will it have something to do with this capable person?

Thinking of this, Xingshu and Chen Taidong exchanged glances, Ma Fei also realized something, and immediately got up and said, "It's time to go back, otherwise they will be suspicious, Angu, I'll take you away first." ”

Angu got up, looked at the torture technique and said: "I know what you want to do, but it's useless, you will never know who it is, unless I am the guide, you will never be able to enter the Four Seasons Mountain, even if you really enter, you will not survive!" ”

The torture technique only responded coldly to Angu's words: "Don't worry, even if we want to escape, we will take you with us and will not leave you." ”

Angu nodded silently and limped out of the tent with Ma Fei.

After Angu followed Ma Fei out of the tent, he took a deep breath, glanced at the big man of the Ural Khan tribe who was following him, and whispered to Ma Fei, "You are really lucky to have such a friend who is willing to go on an adventure for you. ”

Ma Fei stopped: "He's not my friend, he's my fiancΓ©." ”

Angu smiled: "Do you really think I don't know anything? From your previous actions, I can see that you like him, but he doesn't necessarily like you, and his eyes are full of contradictions when he looks at you, you know what I mean? ”

Ma Fei didn't understand why Angu said this, but Angu's words poked at the weakest place in her heart, she really knew very well that the person who was heavy on feelings in torture would definitely not be able to let go of He Chenxue for a while, just like after many years, he couldn't let go of She Caixiang is a truth.

In the tent of torture, Chen Taidong, who finally felt hungry, grabbed a bone stick and gnawed it, and said at the same time: "Do you suspect that there is someone behind Angu?" ”

"Yes." Torture drank the cold mare's milk, "It's obvious......"

The torture technique then told Chen Taidong the three doubts he thought, and asked Chen Taidong to help analyze them.

After listening to this, Chen Taidong was not in a hurry to express his opinion, but he just ate vigorously, and after he was half-full, he wiped his mouth and said, "You missed a key point." ”

The torturer immediately asked, "What?" ”

Chen Taidong looked at the torture technique and said: "Tang Qianrou met Angu through what channel, as long as she understands this matter, she can be regarded as finding the right direction to solve all the puzzles." ”
