Volume IV Settled and Framed
It's just that the young man didn't look like he was talking about anything else, so Taixia shut up in disgust, and there were ten thousand questions in her heart blocked in her throat, which made her extremely uncomfortable.
"Where's your tool for getting water?" After the boy finished talking to those dogs, he turned to face Tantai Xia and looked at her, and it seemed that he didn't have any tools to hold water, so he could only take the initiative to ask.
Tan Taixia was a little dazed, and after thinking for a while, she suddenly realized that she didn't have any tools to get water at all, and she didn't have any kettles and water bladders, thinking of this, she was suddenly a little shy, and wrung her fingers and asked, "I, I don't have those-"
Before she finished speaking, the young man's gentle gaze suddenly turned cold, and he interrupted Taixia's words, and asked with full vigilance, "Are you a spy sent by another tribe?" ”
She didn't have time to get angry when her words were interrupted, and she was buttoned up by the young man's spy, and she could only argue in a hurry: "I'm not, I'm just ......"
How did she and Sikong Yang come here, it is also a secret that cannot be said, even if I told him, he would not believe it if he thought about it, Tang Taixia was a little deflated, her origin is indeed a mystery, and it is certain that the young man will misunderstand.
The young man was still a little relieved when he saw her ridiculous expression before, but when he saw that she didn't say a word herself, she swallowed the words back into her stomach after only saying a word, and there was an embarrassed expression on her face, and she became vigilant again.
He distanced himself from Taixia with some restraint, quietly moved one hand behind him and pulled out the whip rolled around his waist, threw it on the ground with a snap, pointed at Taixia and said, "No matter what your identity is, please leave our water source immediately, otherwise you can only ask me to go to our tribe." ”
She could only sigh, glanced at the clear lake with some nostalgia, swallowed her saliva, and said to the young man: "Okay, I'll go." ”
The boy didn't talk to her anymore, his eyes were staring at her every move, and the whip in his hand was clenched tightly, as long as he didn't expect to move, his whip would be unceremoniously thrown on her.
She is afraid of pain and loves to be delicate, so she will not take the initiative to find guilt, so she can only walk away from the young man with her hands raised and reluctantly.
After walking out of a dozen steps, she suddenly thought that she had nothing on her body that could take water, the young man lived on the grassland, there must be something, then she could exchange the things on her body, she thought about it, and directly pulled out a silver hairpin on her head and held it in her hand.
Cheering himself up, he turned around and walked towards the young man who was still in place.
He was still standing in place, for some reason, a little empty chatter, probably because he had just seen someone more beautiful than the princess, but he was suspected of being a spy, and he was disappointed.
Such a beautiful girl, although she looked a little depressed, but this made her look even more pitiful, and he wanted to solve her sorrow at the first sight of her, so that there would be no haze in those beautiful eyes.
She didn't know that he thought of herself, and now she was happy that she had come up with a clever method, and she ran in front of the boy like a whirlwind.
The young man heard the sudden sound of the wind around him, and raised his head in some surprise, and saw that the beautiful girl just now was holding a silver hairpin in her hand, and hurriedly ran towards him, the string in his head was suddenly broken, and the whip in his hand shook out without thinking about it.
Her big eyes reflected the appearance of the whip coming quickly, and she was surprised in her heart, but fortunately, the instinct of her body was faster than her brain, and she twisted her waist and narrowly escaped the whip.
But her feet were a little unable to move because of the sudden force of her waist, and she mixed her left foot with her right foot, and the silver hairpin in her hand pierced the shoulder of the young man who was only a few steps away from her.
The young man didn't dodge for some reason, and the silver hairpin of Taixia pierced deeply into his flesh, and almost instantly, blood gushed out from that extremely deep flesh/hole, and the whole person was scared stupid.
She looked up at the young man whose face suddenly turned pale in a little daze, and muttered, "I said I didn't mean it, do you believe it?" I just want to trade this thing for something water, really. ”
The young man didn't have any expression on his face, that is, when the silver hairpin was pierced into his body, he didn't even snort a word, and calmly made Taixia a little suspicious, did he deliberately design such a play, so what is the purpose of the question?
She couldn't think of it, so the teenager certainly didn't mean it.
"Whether you are or not, you must go with me to our tribe now."
When he heard him say this, his heart was cold, and he let go of his hand without thinking about it, and he didn't want water, so he turned around and ran.
I thought in my heart, I couldn't go to the tribe with him, Sikong Yang was still waiting for her there, he was so young, how could he live.
It's just that she just ran two steps, and she didn't hear how the boy moved, her hands swinging at her sides were tied by a thick rope, she stumbled under her feet, and almost fell to the ground, and the timely pull of the rope saved her.
The young man's clear voice soon sounded in her ears: "If you don't run, I still believe you, but if you run like this, you don't need to say anything." ”
Tan Taixia was annoyed in her heart, as soon as anyone heard that they were going to arrest themselves, their first reaction would definitely be to run, wouldn't they be caught in place if they stayed where they were, and she was not a spy at all, so she didn't want to get involved in the matter between them.
She couldn't say these words, the young man's lips buzzed a few times, and Tang Taixia couldn't speak.
This shocked her heart, it turned out that this young man was also an immortal, so they should still be in the Xuan Demon Continent at this time, and Taixia could only analyze it in bitterness.
The tribe that the boy said was very close to this lake, and after a few words of inner complaining, she saw more than a dozen tents piled together, several of which were large and luxurious, beyond all her imagination of tents.
She only marveled at these in her heart, and her face was still expressionless, and the young man peeked at her expression a few times, and when he saw that she was so calm, he muttered a little.
But he still brought the Taixia to the king.
"Wang, this is what I caught, suspected of being a spy who coveted our water supply." He knelt on the ground, the wound in his shoulder untreated, allowing blood to flow out.
After just one glance, she felt that the same place also hurt, so she immediately took her eyes back and looked at the person who was called king in front of her.
He looked like he was thirty years old, tall and mighty, he couldn't tell what he looked like on his face, a circle of beard wrapped his face, and he could barely see that his eyes were as deep and deep as those of a teenager, and it seemed that everyone here had such good eyes.
Wang, who was sitting on the tiger skin seat, saw Tantai Xia's straightforward and bold gaze, a trace of surprise flashed in his heart, but there was a very unhappy expression on his face, and a pair of tiger eyes glared at Tantai Xia and shouted angrily.
"Say! Which tribe are you sending a spy! ”
He was so loud that Tang Taixia didn't have any psychological preparation, she was frightened, she swallowed her saliva and continued to look up at the king on the seat, thought about it, and asked: "Then there are those tribes here?" ”
Wang furrowed his eyebrows, very puzzled by Taixia's question, and he asked rhetorically, "What are you asking for?" ”
Tan Taixia sighed, looked at the king a little speechlessly, and replied: "Find a tribe with an ugly name to frame the past, but they can only consider themselves unlucky, who made their tribe's name ugly." ”
She said this very bluntly, causing the kneeling figure of the young man holding the rope to stiffen, and then quietly raised his head and glared at her.
Tantai Xia pretended not to see this.
The king above smiled, he looked at Yutai Xia and asked, "You stabbed the person who took care of the water source, the evidence is conclusive." He relented and continued: "If you want me to believe that you are not a spy, you can come up with evidence." ”
Listening to what he said, Tan Taixia lowered her long eyelashes, thinking wildly in her heart, whether this sentence meant that this king did not believe that she was a spy, and whether she had a chance to prove her innocence.
Convincing himself in this way, Taixia lifted his eyelids, and explained to himself with a serious face: "I don't have anything on me, the silver hairpin on his shoulder is my only object, in addition, you should also see that the clothes and hairstyles I wear, including the silver hairpin, are not the usual dress of women on the grassland." ”
Shuttling all the way from the tent to the inside, because he couldn't speak, he carefully observed the people who were looking at him, especially the women's clothes, their clothes were simple and generous, there were many kinds of beads and gems on their bodies, and they had intricate and beautiful braids on their heads, with hair crowns made of pearl agate and precious stones.
Although the clothes on her body are tattered, you can also see that they are wide-sleeved collared gowns, plain white with silver dark lines, without any decoration on them, and they are in a fluttering style.
Wang Jingjing thought about what Taixia said for a while, and a look of approval appeared in his eyes, and the young man kneeling on the ground saw it when he peeked, and he sighed in his heart, and quickly retorted: "Wang, this is where their cleverness lies!" The people of all tribes seem to be dressed similarly, but they all have their own characteristics, and it is with such inland dresses that we can't tell which tribe she belongs to. ”
When the young man said this, he kowtowed deeply, and the sound was on the carpeted floor, which still made Taixia's forehead hurt for no reason.
"Please think twice, don't be blinded by this woman's words."
Tantai Xia laughed angrily at him.
