Chapter 319: Embarrassment
Ah Chong rode with Su Rile and Ke to the lonely tent in the distance, and when they reached it, the tent door was lifted, and a man came out, shouting something to them.
"He invited us over." Su Il Hoke translated with Ah Chong.
Ah Chong nodded, and the two dismounted and entered the tent one after the other.
This yurt is the kind of small portable tent commonly used by the grazing Mongols, and there is not much space inside, and there were originally two people, and after the huge body of Suri Lehek got in, almost the entire tent was stuffed.
"Is it the Suzhile Hok brothers?" One of the people in the tent exclaimed.
"Brother Bayar?"
"Oh, what a coincidence, I met you in this place!"
Suzhle and Ke greeted the two men in the tent affectionately.
Ah Chong saw that the two of them were both forty or fifty years old, with thin figures, dark faces, sharp-beaked monkey gills and rat whiskers, and the two of them looked the same obscenely, like printed in a mold.
"This is Masibayar, this is Unbayar! I've hauled goods with them before! Su Rile Heke introduced Ah Chong, and by the way, he also introduced Ah Chong in Mongolian, presumably some distant relatives or something.
"Brother Su Rile and Ke, we also know Chinese, everyone speaks Mandarin! Is this brother from the South? "One of them is fluent in Mandarin.
"Yes, I'm Han." Ah Chong said with a slight smile.
"Oh, it's okay, we also do business with Han people a lot." One of the bayars said "generously", as if talking to Ah Chong, who is a Han Chinese, would make them cheaper.
"How did the Bayar brothers end up in this place where birds don't?" Suri Le Hok asked straight to the point.
"Alas, don't mention it, I originally planned to go to the Sunrise Fort in the east to run errands, but I ended up being trapped here by this white-haired wind halfway."
Suri Le Hok and Ah Chong glanced at each other, and the Sunrise Fort was also the destination of their trip.
"By the way, where are the Suzhile and Ke brothers going?" One of the bayars asked.
"We? Also go to Sunrise Fort. Suzhlehok said.
"Oh, that's great, it's on the same road, we can take care of each other when we walk togetherβdo you have anything to eat?" Masibayar asked unceremoniously.
Suilhok nodded, "I'll send you some later." β
Su Il, Ke and Ah Chong walked out of the tent and returned to the convoy and told Timur about the situation.
Timur thought for a moment and said, "It's not convenient to rush in this weather, let's camp first." β
When the tents were set up, the Bayar brothers also rushed over to help, and after the yurts were erected, Surile and Ke took out two packets of beef and mutton and handed them to them, and the two went back with great gratitude.
After settling Arislan in place, the people sat on the ground, wrapped around the blankets, and listened to Suzhl Hok tell the story of the Bayar brothers.
There are a total of five Bayar brothers, and what they saw just now was the eldest Masi Bayar and the second Ouen Bayar, whose name translates to Daxi and Zhenxi in Chinese. The other three brothers are Ming'an Bayar, Tumen Bayar, and Buren Bayar, which respectively mean Qianxi, Wanxi, and Quanxi. It is said that the five brothers also have a younger sister named Caiyin Bayar, the best joy.
These five brothers often engaged in some smuggling business of reselling goods on the Sino-Mongolian and Mongolian-Russian borders, and their character was relatively ordinary.
After listening to Suilhok's story, Timur groaned for a while and said: "Let's go to Risheng Fort this time, maybe there will be an enemy on the way, we must be careful along the way, and those who are not familiar with it can avoid it!" β
"The Bayar brothers shouldn't have anything to do with the people who are chasing us, right?" Suzhle Hok asked.
"It's better to be careful, let's not affect outsiders in our current situation, wait for you to prepare some rations for them, and when the weather is better, everyone should go their separate ways."
"yes, okay."
After Suzhl Hok went out, only Ah Chong and Naya, Timur and Arislan were left in the tent.
Ah Chong clasped his hands on his knees and stared ahead, listening to the roar of the wind and snow outside.
Naya silently watched Ah Chong's side beside her, and suddenly said softly, "Brother Chong, your clothes are torn." β
Ah Chong looked down and saw that there was a cut on his right arm that was a few inches long, which was the same place where he was stabbed by Jing Wumian during the fight with him last night.
Naya pulled up Ah Chong's sleeves with both hands, only to see a shallow scratch on Ah Chong's arm, the wound was slightly swollen, and the surrounding skin had turned purple, and the color was very different from the dragon pattern next to him.
"You're hurt!" Naya exclaimed in a low voice.
"It's fine, it's just a small injury."
Timur leaned over and sniffed the wound and asked in surprise: "You were poisoned?" Was it cut by the poisonous needle? β
Ah Chong nodded slowly.
"Ahh So, what to do! Naya cried out in horror as she thought of the tragic death of the four people who had been stabbed with poisonous needles.
"Don't worry, it should be fine now." Ah Chong patted the back of Naya's hand, signaling that she didn't need to panic.
When he was stabbed last night, Ah Chong's arm was numb for a while and he almost lost consciousness, but after running wildly for a while, the tingling disappeared. When he returned to the camp, his right hand could move freely, but he was afraid that Timur would worry about them, so he didn't say anything about it.
After a night, the wound did not deteriorate β much to Ah Chong's surprise. Based on the toxicity of the poison needle I saw before, the middle one will inevitably die immediately, why is there nothing wrong with being scratched by the poison needle? He couldn't figure it out for a moment.
Timur frowned and said, "How many times have you taken Qilin Blood Coagulation?" β
"The seniors of Huangshan gave me a total of five, plus the one I took recently, and I have taken six in about a year."
Timur nodded and said, "According to ancestors, this unicorn blood coagulation can not only bring the dead back to life, but also have the effect of dissolving all kinds of poisons. You have taken so much Qilin blood coagulation in such a short period of time, coupled with the cold poison in your body, you must have restrained the onset of this strange poison, but ......"
"But what?" Naya looked at Abba suddenly and asked anxiously.
"This unicorn blood clotting itself is toxic, one or two can save lives, but eating too much will be very harmful to the body, I'm afraid that Ah Chong's lifespan will be affected in the future......"
Looking at Timur's worried eyes, Ah Chong smiled bitterly. Now he simply doesn't have the energy to care about the future.
Eating this unicorn blood coagulation is actually similar to drinking a donkey to quench your thirst. In the past year, the cold in his body has been attacking, and there are signs of intensification every time, if it is not suppressed by Qilin blood coagulation, I am afraid it will not survive for a few months.
Naya carefully wiped Ah Chong's wound with a wet towel, and after mending his clothes with needle and thread, she persuaded him to rest for a while.
Ah Chong stayed awake all night last night, and he was indeed a little tired from supporting it until now, so he lay down in the tent at the moment. Naya helped him cover the blanket and tiptoed out.
In the evening, when Ah Chong woke up, he saw Naya sitting next to her staring at her face with a sad expression.
Seeing Ah Chong wake up, a smile bloomed on Naya's face: "Are you awake?" It's time for dinner. β
In another tent, Suzhlehok set up a cauldron and cooked a pot full of meat, and the smell filled the air, and even the Bayard brothers were attracted to it. The crowd sat together. Su Zh Le Hok first filled a bowl of hot soup with meat and bones and handed it to Timur, Timur was about to reach out to pick it up, suddenly Su Il Hok frowned and said, "No! β
Timur was stunned for a moment, and saw that the bones in his bowl had turned black, and knew that something was wrong. Seeing this, Naya took out a silver hairpin and tried it by dipping it in the pot, and after a while, the silver hairpin turned black.
"Poisonous!" Everyone looked at each other.
"It's strange, we don't have outsiders here, who poisoned us?" Suzhle and Ke muttered.
The eyes of the tent looked at the Bayar brothers in unison - one Bayar was now gone, and the remaining one saw the eyes of the crowd, turned around and ran out.
Dai Qin flew up and kicked him to the ground, and several young men next to him pounced on him and held him down.
At this moment, there were several horses outside, and everyone rushed out of the tent, only to see a man riding a horse running out, and it was another Bayar.
Ah Chong chased after him, the snow on the ground was quite deep, and the horses were already difficult to run, so Ah Chong chased after him in three steps and two steps.
Seeing that he was about to be overtaken, Bayar waved the horsewhip in his hand and slashed at Ah Chong, who reached out and grabbed the whip with a flick of his wrist. Bayard clamped his legs between the horse's belly and was about to continue running, but his neck suddenly tightened, and he was already entangled in the horsewhip.
Ah Chong struck his hand, and Bayar planted his horse like a log.
Ah Chong stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar and carried him back to the tent like a chicken. Throw it on the ground with a thud.
"Heroes spare their lives! Heroes spare their lives! β
Bayar lay on the ground and kept kowtowing, and the other Bayar had been tied up and lying on the ground like a dumpling.
"What are you running!" Su Rile and Ke asked in a loud voice.
"I, I...... I don't know......" Unbayar said hesitantly, looking at the eldest brother lying on the ground next to him.
Dai Qin handed Ah Chong a small transparent bottle that he had taken out of Masibayar's arms, and inside was half a bottle of white powder.
"What's in there?" Ah Chong asked.
"Powdered sugar!" Masibayar said with a stiff neck.
"Then I'll feed you a little first!" Suzhle Hok said as he lifted his chin.
Masibayar's expression changed greatly, he turned his head to break free of Suzhlehok's big hand, and shouted in his mouth: "No, no, no, no, don't eat!" It's arsenic! Arsenic! β
"Humph!" Suzhle and Ke kicked him hard, "Who sent you?" β
"I don't know ...... either"
"Dishonest? It seems that you will have to give you some candy before you can say it! β
"No, no, no, I really don't know them, help!!" Masibayar rolled around on the ground like a ball, and Suzhlek followed him with a bottle to scare him. Masibayar, lest he put the bottle in his mouth, rolled faster, and the scene was quite comical, and everyone watched with laughter.
"Stop making trouble!" Timur said heavily, and everyone put away their smiling faces at the moment, knowing that it was not the right time for this excitement to come, and everyone was silent at the moment.
"Lift him up."
The two descendants stepped forward to help him up, and Masibayar sat on the ground, looking at the people with a frightened expression, and the two mousewlers trembled with fear.
"Tell me everything you know, or you won't see the sun tomorrow!" Timur said with a stern expression.
