When Lian Jiuqi's unmasked friend Tor Lie appeared at the door of the restaurant, the old Zheng Cangqiong had already slept for a while, while Lian Jiuqi and Mo Duqiao, who had better physical strength, were drowsy, after all, they had eaten an unknown amount of food and drank milk tea in order to stay in this restaurant.

When Torrei and Lian Jiuqi met, Torreux even took out a folded piece of printer paper, repeatedly compared the photo of Lian Jiuqi printed on the paper, and only after confirming it did he give Lian Jiuqi a big hug.

Lian Jiuqi finally let Torlie let go of his hand, and at the same time introduced him to Mo Twilight Bridge and Zheng Cangqiong in Chinese.

When Torlie heard Lian Jiuqi introduce Mo Twilight Bridge as his master and brother, his face was full of doubts, but he still shook Mo Twilight's hand tightly and said in more proficient Chinese: "Welcome to Mongolia!" ”

Mo Twilight Bridge was surprised: "Your Chinese is so good." ”

Torret grinned: "Originally, I chose to go to China, after all, there are grasslands there, but then ...... Forget it, don't mention this, have you eaten? I'll take you to dinner. ”

As soon as Torrei said this, the three of Lian Jiuqi, whose stomachs were stuffed with beef and mutton, immediately waved their hands and said that they didn't need to, because if they ate again, they would either die alive, or they would vomit from now until dawn tomorrow.

After coming to Torlie's car, Lian Jiuqi asked, "Is your home far from here?" ”

"It's not too far." Torret started the car, the broken jeep made a strange noise, and then slowly drove down the road, and after driving onto the main road, Torret stepped on the accelerator and the car sped forward.

After driving for a while, Torrey looked around, and then said, "My home is more than 400 kilometers away from here. ”

As soon as Torree finished speaking, Lian Jiuqi and the three of them were stunned at the same time, and Lian Jiuqi couldn't help but say: "More than 400 kilometers!?" Why didn't you say it earlier? ”

Torrei disagreed: "More than seventy percent of the places in Inner Mongolia are uninhabited areas, and thirty percent of them have not been visited, and the area where I live is also considered a semi-uninhabited area, and I can't leave except in special circumstances." ”

Lian Jiuqi asked, "Torlie, do you have something to say to me?" ”

Torrei slowed down and glanced in the rearview mirror at Zheng Cangqiong and Mo Dui Bridge.

Lian Jiuqi saw his concerns, and hurriedly explained: "Torre, they can all be trusted, let me tell you the truth, I am no longer from the Cusco Company, and I have caused a lot of trouble." ”

"You're not from Cusco anymore?" Torret parked the car on the side of the road, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "What about ......that?" So what about my son? Don't blame me for asking that, I'm worried about him, you know, it was the Cusco company that helped me arrange everything, and if you weren't in that company, would they find a way to get my son out of the United States? ”

Lian Jiuqi shook his head: "Don't worry, when I settled your son in the United States, I used my personal relationship, you should know that the Cusco company thinks that you are a person with no integrity and is unwilling to help." ”

Torret grabbed the steering wheel and didn't say a word, thinking about something.

Zheng Cangqiong was sitting just as he was about to speak, but Lian Jiuqi immediately raised his hand to signal him not to speak, and let Torlie think for himself.

Sitting at the back, the Modui Bridge looked out through the cracked and tapered windows, but all I could see was pitch black, not even a little light or the light and shadow of the campfire, all I could hear was the breathing of others, and the sound of the wind blowing at night on the grassland.

"I'm sorry, friend, maybe I'd be selfish to say that, but I really have to make sure my son is safe, I know the Cusco company, I know their methods......" Torri looked embarrassed, "I want to help you, you are my benefactor, my friend." ”

Even the nine chess pieces Torrei said this, and realized something: "Torlie, did they look for you?" And after I called you, because even if your home is more than 400 kilometers from here, you won't be able to drive eight hours on a grassland with such a road. ”

When Zheng Cangqiong and Mo Duqiao heard Lian Jiuqi say this, they immediately became nervous, and subconsciously looked around the car, worried that the people from the Cusco Company would come out directly.

Torri just looked at Lian Jiuqi and shook his head in pain, but still refused to say anything.

Lian Jiuqi took out the phone: "I will dial a security number now, and then you will personally determine your son's safety, you have to believe me, I really use my personal personal relationship." ”

After Lian Jiuqi finished speaking, he dialed the number, waited for a while, said a few words in English, and then handed the phone to Torlie, who was very excited to communicate with the person on the other end of the phone in English, and only hung up the phone after talking for ten minutes.

After Torrei hung up the phone, he got out of the car and returned the phone to Lian Jiuqi, who was leaning in front of the car: "I'm sorry, I should have believed you." ”

"It's okay." Lian Jiuqi took the phone and figured it out, "It's normal for you to worry about your son, but are you still unwilling to tell him the truth?" Are you going to keep it like this, for the rest of your life? ”

Zheng Cangqiong and Mo Duqiao, who were next to the car, didn't understand what the two were talking about at all, so they had to remain silent and listen quietly.

Torret nodded: "If you can hide it for a lifetime, you can hide it for a lifetime, after all, this is not a glorious thing, and besides, if he knows the truth, he will definitely hate me, I would rather he like me as Uncle Torre, let's go, friend, I will take you to my friend's place for a night first, and we will rush back to me tomorrow morning." ”

After driving for more than two hours with Lian Jiuqi and the others, Torrei finally came to three tents under a small hill, and then Torrei arranged for the three of them to live in the tent in the middle, while he stayed in the jeep and waited for the next morning.

After Torrei settled the three of them and left, Zheng Cangqiong walked to the entrance of the tent, lifted the thick curtain and glanced outside, then turned his head and asked, "Jiuqi, can this Torreen be trusted?" It seems that he has been threatened by the people of Cusco. ”

Lian Jiuqi was making the bed, and Mo Duqiao was leaning on him and watching him, playing the game on his phone, as if he didn't take everything seriously, and really answered Zheng Cangqiong's words - when he didn't want to be interested in something, he was an idiot.

"The people of the Cusco company will threaten everyone they know, everyone who has a relationship with me, this is their usual method of doing it to traitors, or people who have been removed, but I believe in Torre, and I can only choose to believe him, in Mongolia, as an outsider, it is difficult for you to have a real friend in the local area, but once you make a real friend here, then this person must be trustworthy." After Lian Jiuqi sorted it out briefly, he leaned aside and looked at Zheng Cangqiong, and said, "Torlie is a member of the Ural Khan tribe, this tribe is very strange, it still maintains the habits of nomads, and it is not easy to contact the outside world, and at the same time resists the use of external things, to put it bluntly, it just wants to maintain the bloodline of this tribe, and because of this, there are less than two hundred people left in the entire tribe now......"

The origin of the Ural Khan tribe is a mystery, although they have their own language, but there is no real writing, only a few simple symbols, so it is impossible to leave but the exact historical information, the entire Mongolian government also knows very little about this tribe, the only person who witnessed the migration of this tribe was in early 1938, that is, the most unbearable purge in the history of Mongolia - when several people who escaped the Soviet purge almost died in a snowstorm in the steppe, They were rescued by this tribe in times of crisis, but after the Ural Khan tribe only gave them food and warm clothes for their lives, the whole tribe disappeared into the snow and wind, as if it had never appeared.

Lian Jiuqi said: "Torrei is a very important figure in this tribe, in our words, he is the prince. ”

"Prince?" Zheng Cangqiong looked puzzled, "No wonder he wants to send his son out of Mongolia, but why does he call himself an uncle in front of his son?" ”

"Alas, that is, it is caused by the feudal customs of the tribe, you know that a tribe does not contact with the outside world, does not intermarry with foreign tribes, sooner or later it will become a marriage of close relatives, Torreux's wife is his cousin, they have children, they all died, Torret is very sad, his wife also committed suicide because of this." Lian Jiuqi shook his head and sighed, "After a drunken time, Torrei rode away from the tribe, and then lived in a city for a year, a year, he finally found that the outside world was completely different from what the tribesmen said, he decided to change his people, change the fate of the tribe, but it was in vain, such a tribe can never be changed." ”

Mo Duqiao put down his phone and said, "It turns out that this son of his was born to a foreign woman. ”

"Yes." Lian Jiuqi nodded, "You analyzed it well, this son was born after Torri fell in love with a foreign woman, but after his clansmen found out, they gave Torlie two choices, either to keep the child in the tribe, or to leave his wife and son forever." ”

Faced with the threat of the tribe and the elders who were not good at eating the ancients, Torri finally relented that he would live with his wife far from the city and send his son out of Mongolia forever without recognizing himself as his father.

But it was too difficult for a man who was new to the real world to send his son out of Mongolia, but he knew that in the real world, money was a good thing, and there were a lot of gold artifacts left over from their tribe, so he and his wife began to use the gold objects to make limited efforts, and finally contacted the Cusco company with the help of a local antique dealer in Mongolia.

"As I said later, I helped him, and at that time, I kept an eye on it, and I didn't use the relationship of Cusco Company, which can be regarded as leaving a way back for myself." Lian Jiuqi smiled after speaking, "Actually, I still have a lot of such a way back, this time the Cusco company will threaten him, and I have counted it, but they will definitely not find his son, only I can find it." ”

Mo Duqiao asked curiously, "Can't even find him himself?" ”

"Yes, on the one hand, for safety, on the other hand, out of oaths, his oath to the tribe, his contact with his son, must all go through me." Lian Jiuqi lay down and looked at the top of the tent, "That's why he has to live more than four hundred kilometers away from here." ”

Zheng Cangqiong was still puzzled: "I don't understand, why are you looking for him?" What can he help us? Could it be that his tribe is related to the Four Seasons Mountain? ”

"No, I'm looking for him because of the wolf herd." Lian Jiuqi propped up his body, "Master, do you know what a wolf herd is?" ”

Zheng Cangqiong pondered for a moment: "I've heard it, but it's all legends, it can't exist, right?" ”

Mo Duqiao also echoed: "The wolf herd only exists in Mongolian legends, and there is no historical record that the wolf herd exists, perhaps, the so-called wolf herd, is what we later called the wolf dog?" ”

As soon as Mo Duqiao finished speaking, he heard the chirping of a shepherd dog outside, and soon the chirping turned into a roar, which was a warning from the shepherd dog, in other words, the shepherd dog smelled the wolf smell that drifted in the wind.

The three of them looked at the door, waited for a while, and Lian Jiuqi continued: "The wolf herd is made of steppe wolves and purebred Mongolian shepherd dogs, the survival rate is quite low, and the wolf herd, like mules, is infertile and the most terrible thing is that the female dog that gives birth to wolf dog cubs will die on the spot, because the wolf dog is huge, and the body is two or even three times that of the ordinary steppe wolf when it becomes an adult, and the survival ability is extremely strong, very loyal, with an excellent memory, an unusually sensitive sense of smell, and most importantly, This herd is also capable of communicating with steppe wolves and may even become the leader of a wolf pack. ”

"Understood." Zheng Cangqiong nodded and said, "You mean, the Ural Khan tribe has cultivated this kind of wolf herd?" ”

Lian Jiuqi said: "That's right, this is the only tribe that has mastered the correct way to cultivate wolf herding, and the other meaning of 'Ural Khan' is wolf herding. They try to keep their bloodlines pure, and I think it has something to do with the cultivation of wolf herds, on the one hand, because they think that they have done something that is against the principles of heaven, and on the other hand, it is because they are unwilling to pass on this cultivation method to the outside world. ”

Mo Duqiao looked at Lian Jiuqi and asked, "It turns out that your ultimate goal is wolf herding, why do we need wolf herding when we go to Four Seasons Mountain?" Can you escort us and reduce the hassle? ”

Lian Jiuqi said: "Almost, the wolf herd has an old enemy, that is, the golden eagle, and in the Four Seasons Mountain, there is a Golden Eagle tribe, although the people of this tribe will not prevent anyone from entering the Four Seasons Mountain, but they will not let anyone who comes out of the Four Seasons Mountain alive take away any of the things in the mountain, even if it is soil." ”

Mo Duqiao sneered, "It's one thing whether you can come back alive or not, you even think so far ahead. ”

"A lot of things have to be prepared ahead." Lian Jiuqi closed his eyes, "Let's have a good rest tonight, sleep until we wake up naturally tomorrow, and then let Torri take us to the nearest place to buy some equipment, I also have to find a way to collect some information about the Cusco company here, if I am not mistaken, they should have brought armed men." ”

Zheng Cangqiong was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by armed men?" ”

Lian Jiuqi turned over: "It's the same meaning as what you think, go to sleep." ”

When Lian Jiuqi fell asleep, Zheng Cangqiong couldn't sleep at all because of those four words, this was also the first time he felt helpless, after all, this was not China, it was Mongolia, and anyone he knew who might help him could not do anything useful here.

But even if he is helpless, even if he knows that he can't turn back, Zheng Cangqiong will grit his teeth and go on, because this is what he owes Lian Jiuqi father and son, and if he doesn't pay it back this time, he will never have a chance again.

At a lake at the other end of the grassland, Xingshu finally met the armed men Tang Qianrou said, although this group of people did not wear camouflage uniforms and did not directly hold light and heavy weapons, but they could still see from their figures and postures that these were all soldiers, and they all maintained the habits of the army after retiring.

Ma Fei followed beside the torture technique, looking at the horse next to him dragging an assault rifle with the butt exposed, and couldn't help frowning-Tang Qianrou really didn't say anything alarmist.

Tang Qianrou, who was walking in the forefront, walked directly into the largest tent, and in the tent, a bald head with a big beard was looking at the map.

Tang Qianrou took off her coat and asked, "How is it?" Having a problem with the route? ”

The burly bald head raised his eyes to look at Tang Qianrou, and at the same time saw the torture technique, Ma Fei and Chen Taidong behind her, and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Tang Qianrou turned around and glanced at the three of them, and introduced: "The three of them are invited by me, no, they are kidnapped helpers, this is the torture, the female is Ma Fei, and the oldest one is called Chen Taidong, who is my uncle." ”

The bald head didn't react, just glanced at the three torturers with a suspicious gaze.

Tang Qianrou introduced to the torture technique and the others: "He is Gulal, my security advisor. ”

The torture technique only looked directly at Gulal, who looked at Tang Qianrou and said in a low voice, "There is something I have to discuss with you." ”

Tang Qianrou sat down directly, opened a can of beer next to her, took a sip, and wiped the foam from her mouth: "Let's say, they are not outsiders now, we need them if we want to find that place." ”

Gulal glanced at them and said bluntly: "Our equipment and supplies are not up to the requirements, and there is no backup, so, after my analysis, I think that our survival rate is less than 10%, or even lower. ”

Tang Qianrou put down the beer can: "You should know, you're just a consultant, right?" And we're looking for a place that might be full of treasure, not going to war, so that's not a problem. ”

Gulal frowned: "Even if it's not a war, I need local intelligence, even if it's a detailed situation, you said, there is a tribe there that doesn't welcome outsiders, I must know their numbers, how they are deployed, and the weapons used." ”

At this time, the torture technique had already understood that these ten so-called armed personnel were not from Cusco Company at all, but mercenaries that Tang Qianrou had privately found at her own expense.

Although it is said that the people hired for money are relatively easy to deal with in the eyes of torture, at least they can use money to find a breakthrough, but on the other hand, this group of people must be murderous guys, not to mention entering the mountain, even here, once they have any abnormal movements, as long as Tang Qianrou gives them a look, they will pull the trigger without hesitation.
