Chapter 42 Plotting to × the × Siege of the Station
Qi Yu still vividly remembered He Mo's injuries at that time, and his death was the most difficult for Qi Yu to accept.
The two brothers, He Mo and Aite, have the best relationship with Qi Yu among the tribal warriors, Qi Yu can quickly learn the language here and integrate into it, most of which is the credit of the two brothers and Ai Rouzuo Sai, and these two people also have a lot of encouragement and care in their usual training, and this hunting trip is to sincerely support and escort them all the way.
Now seeing He Mo come back from the dead, how can Qi Yu not be overjoyed, as for the process, go back and say slowly, the top priority is to return safely with everyone.
Thinking of this, Qi Yu dragged He Mo, who was much taller and more powerful than before, and looked left and right, but he looked embarrassed at He Mo.
"Qi, these people just let it go?" Aite walked over with a spear and asked Qi Yu in his mouth.
Qi Yu looked at the captive who was lying lower again, and asked Aite back: "These people, do our tribes have any contact?" ”
"I have some impressions, this is not far from our tribe, and it will take less than two days to walk." When Aite heard Qi Yu's words, he thought that Qi Yu had something else, and his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he asked, "Qi, you mean, let's kill these people first, and then go back to the tribe and ask someone to kill the rest of their tribe?" ”
Hearing Aite's words, the rest of the people immediately walked closer to the captives, especially He Mo, the giant shield went there, and the pressure of the prisoners on the ground immediately reached its peak.
The leader had heard Aite's words just now, and when he saw this, he immediately wept and prayed: "Zosai! I know Zuosai! Last time, our tribe exchanged grain with you for pottery, and you saw me in Zuosai. I beg you to spare us, and when we return from the hunt, we will offer you the king. ”
Stopping the eagerness of the crowd, Qi Yu looked at the leader and pondered for a moment before speaking: "I can let you go, but the promise you made just now must be written on papyrus, and we will present it to the queen as proof." ”
"The Divine Punishment Plain is very dangerous now, how many royal offerings you can hunt, I and you can't guess now, it's better to limit my royal offerings here, I have a little less, even if it is a meter, you come back to take a meter of royal offerings or something of the same price to resist, I have the right to choose, how?"
The leader had to agree, the leader called the walkers, wrote a papyrus signature, and Qi Yu asked each of them to make up their handprints, and let them leave. Everyone looked at Qi Yu puzzled. Aite screamed to kill the captives, which is normal in the wars of the tribes, and if Qi Yu is wrong, it is a declaration of war on the tribe.
Everyone was stopped by Qi Yu. It's just that although the two He Mo brothers and Mu Tuo stopped, they still had anger and murderous intent in their eyes. Only Mark was on the sidelines, thoughtful.
Qi Yu didn't explain too much, there were some things to say to Zuo Sai, but he just explained that Aite passed by the tribe on the way back, and he must remind himself to take a look. Mark's eyes lit up when he heard this, Qi Yu was going to fight all of them without blood.
The Plains of Divine Punishment has changed dramatically now, the Lost Ferry and the Night Warrior only roamed in the depths of the Black Swamp before, and now the Black Swamp has expanded many times, but unfortunately all the king's hunt this time I don't know how many people have gone and never returned.
Qi Yu now has a certificate, whether it is asking for the king's offering, or begging for goods or even population, in front of the queen's referee and sacrifice, Qi Yu has a reason. Moreover, Qi Yu also reminded the other party just now, indicating that Qi Yu is also an upright person, which is very in line with Chief Mark's style.
The most important thing is that with so many royal offerings now, the strength of the Qi Yu tribe can also ensure that this contract can be executed well. Mark glanced at Qi Yu even more hotly, this guy must be brought to the royal capital, with him and Chief Mark, the people of the kingdom can live better. As for the two tribes, it's not really a big deal.
Qi Yu was a little baffled by Mark's eyes, and in the end, the joy of reunion washed away the episode just now, and a group of people talked happily, and they were so unhappy along the way.
It's just that Mark watched Qi Yu for a while, and he looked a little out of energy, so he proposed that the party first go to the post station not far from where they just came out to rest and then travel, and this Wang Xiangming is dangling next to him, and he will always cause trouble, so it is good to go to the post station directly under the kingdom military to deal with it.
Qi Yu agreed, and it was just right to see how the post station here was different from the ancient post station in his home country. On the way back, Qi Yu wanted to ask a few more questions, but found that the others were mysteriously avoiding and silent, so he didn't mention it, and he saw it when he arrived anyway.
In the midst of talking and laughing, night fell, a new moon had fallen with the twilight, the refreshing and slightly cool night breeze blew, and there was a noise in the distance, and the night sky in the direction of the sound seemed to be illuminated from below. Qi Yu was a little curious, and Marco and the others also had strange looks. Everyone quickened their pace at the same time, and after a corner, a strange complex of brightly lit buildings appeared in front of them.
As soon as he saw this complex, Aite couldn't hold back a little, and was about to take the lead, but was pulled down by Qi Yu covering his mouth and hiding in a cluster of bushes on the side of the road. The rest of the people also looked cautious and squatted down together.
The illuminated night sky over the post station is not only due to the stone pillar lamps and huge pyres on both sides of the path, but also to the swarthy warriors who come and go with torches and patrol back and forth. What surprised Qi Yu even more was that there were two teams of tall warriors standing at the door of the largest two-story building in the center, except that the weapons were exactly the same as the guards Qi Yu had seen when he summoned them in the Black Swamp before.
Thinking of the scene where those guards were shattered in the void, Qi Yu was faintly worried about the situation in front of him. It's just that Qi Yu himself can't figure out why that tragedy happened, unless...... The pitch-black gem flashed in Qi Yu's heart.
As they were observing, they saw a group of soldiers holding a group of crying men and women, and a shout came out of the gate of the two-story building, and one soldier drew his sword and shouted, and the weeping men and women knelt down on the side of the road by the door, and the blade raised high under the flickering light reflected the piercing chill.
"No!" With Aite shouting angrily, the bushes around Qi Yu shook, and several people around him rose up and rushed straight over. Qi Yu didn't understand what was going on, and he also stepped forward to chase after him, but he didn't care about the Wang Confession behind him at all, and the beads carrying the Wang Confession seemed to automatically judge the current situation, and actually rose into the air and followed far away.
Seeing the soldiers who heard the movement on his side and put down their knives and walked over, Qi Yu struggled to catch up with the four people in front of him and drank everyone, his eyes burst with stern light, and he asked in a deep voice: "What happened!" You tell me, Mark! ”。
Mark seemed relatively calm at the moment, but Qi Yu still saw the hidden anger. When Mark heard Qi Yu's request, he nodded and said, "Those people are post walkers, specializing in serving guests, we have been served very well in the past two days, but I don't know why we have been subjected to such an encounter. ”
"Those Praetorian Guards are battlefield guards who are only responsible for the support of the kingdom's war zone, and those shirtless soldiers are the war slaves of the Praetorian Guards. Seeing that there are no white bear war ornaments on their faces, it means that they are Charon's people, Charon is at the same level as Chief Mark, one of the three treasurers of the Kingdom Armory Academy, and is in charge of the Western Kingdom region. ”
"When Charon and his men went out to help, they liked to plague the local tribes and inns, but I don't know why they are here today, this is not his jurisdiction. Qi, you don't have to speak, I'll do it. ”
Qi Yu probably understood what was happening, the nobles and soldiers who crossed the border and killed the people in the land of fish and meat, this is not new at all. Qi Yu didn't stop him anymore, standing with everyone, facing the war slaves who came over to inquire.
The war slave still had a lot of blood on his body, and he was holding a lot of golden utensils in his hands, and everyone was angry and about to attack, but the war slave moved his mouth first and respectfully greeted Qi Yu and his party. After all, Mark is dressed as an Eastern Secret Guard, He Mo looks even more difficult to mess with, and his whole body armor is like a Praetorian Guard, and a group of people on the war slave's side are crossing the line, and in the face of the uninvited guests who appear, it must be reasonable.
Seeing this, Qi Yu became vigilant in his heart, it is not a good thing for a cunning and cruel person to suddenly treat people warmly, not to mention the sound of Suo Suo from all sides in his ears, someone is ambushing in the dark!
After making a gesture behind him, Qi Yu quietly continued to listen to the war slave's nonsense with Mark, chasing the fugitives from the Western War Zone, and strayed into the East Zone.
The two brothers, He Mo and Aite, received the gesture and looked at each other with Muto, and the three of them scattered in all directions, directly on guard, and were vigilant in all directions to prevent a surprise attack. He Mo slowly moved into the shadows behind the middle between Qi Yu and Mark, and quietly took down the giant shield.
Seeing this, the war slave didn't know that he couldn't continue to play here, and as soon as he raised his hand, the black-pressed soldiers rushed out.
