Chapter 10: Battle!

Zhang Qi's team traveled for a day, and at the end of the night, everyone stopped to rest and have dinner. In the carriage where the princess was, there was a woman from her tribe who delivered food. Therefore, Zhang Qi didn't see the princess either, and he didn't know if it was true.

However, since the general is here, the princess is here. This is Zhang Qi's guess. Eating the dry food he carried with him, Zhang Qi couldn't help but think of his father and mother. This is no better than before. I don't know how many months I have been going, and I am still in danger at any time. Whether he can survive or not is still two words. Meimei didn't know which team she was in, and Zhang Qi was also worried about her safety.

Suddenly, the general came over and sat down beside Zhang Qi.

"Your name is Zhang Qi, the son of the patriarch?" Zhang Jun was actually very curious about this young man.

"Hmm. Yes, General. Zhang Qi finished eating the dry food in his hand.

"I wonder how old you are?" the general asked.

"In a little more than a month, I will be seventeen years old. Zhang Qi replied honestly.

"Oh, that's so small! I was amazed to see how you did yesterday. You're so young, but you're so good at archery. Sure enough, it was a hero who came out of a teenager. The general praised.

"The general complimented me too much. I'm in the tribe, only in the top five. The people in front of me are amazing. Zhang Qi heard the compliment and said a little embarrassed.

"What? Only in the top five, and there are so many masters in your tribe?" the general was shocked. Usually, the "field controller" is in the army, and he takes good care of him like a baby. If such a person has a little martial arts, he will find a position in the army. With a little brain, you can be a squad general. Not to mention the manipulators. If there is an army where the controller is, it is an invincible army. Unless, of course, you run into an army that also has a controller. That depends on the strength of both sides. Such a person, a country, it would be good to find one.

And this small tribe actually has four or five controllers, and I don't know how many controllers. If this is cultivated well in the army, it will be worth it. If he were to lead this team, he would at least double the size of his current territory!

The general's heart was impressed, it was like discovering a treasure mountain. These people must stay in their own country.

The tribes of this world are mysterious to those who are not tribes. In the tribe, it is only open to people from other tribes, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. Even if you enter, there are many places where you can't move around. The general has also been to many tribes and has met many young geniuses. But compared with Zhang Qi, it is much inferior. Moreover, tribes with controllers are also difficult to find. I remember that the general of another empire was in the Horde, and I saw one. It's a middle-aged man. When he found this treasure, he was overjoyed at the time, and promised a lot of things and resources before digging this person into the army. Usually it is a good offering. Placed him on the frontier facing the Dark Moon Empire. Whatever he wants, the army will give him anything. Women, money. Both. Although women are not allowed in the army. But he's certainly not one of them.

He himself has shown his hand on the frontier. Repelled a ferocious attack by the "Dark Moon". It was a city wall that had to be climbed by a steady stream of enemies, and it was about to break through the last line of defense. However, he was led by the controller with a small team of men and horses, detouring from the remote path to the rear, holding a good bow and arrows customized for him in the army, and shooting the enemy leader nearly 500 meters away. If it weren't for the Awakened One, who reacted quickly and used his body to block the front of the enemy general. It may be that the "Dark Moon" Empire will not invade again for nearly ten years.

An imperial frontier general, that's so easy to cultivate. After this incident, he himself became a god in that army, and he was even more respected. His Majesty the Emperor also rewarded him personally. If it weren't for the fact that he was a tribesman, His Majesty the Emperor would probably have given him one of his daughters. In order to win him over.

Tribes, in general, must maintain the purity of the bloodline, and do not allow intermarriage with outsiders. This is the rule of all tribes in the entire Legendary Continent. But it's not mandatory. You want to intermarry with outsiders, you can. But you are no longer protected by the tribal totem. Maybe any of your mysterious powers will disappear forever. Unless the other party is a member of the same tribe. It is also possible for people from different tribes to intermarry.

The general secretly suppressed the impulse in his heart and said it later. Now it's like this with this tribe. He is self-confident and 100% able to win over to live in his own country.

"Alas, we're all ashamed of your tribe up to now. We have received great help from you, and I will take your kindness to heart. I have spoken to the elders in your father. When this is done, I will definitely return to the king of Ming, and we will open up a special place for your tribesmen to survive. The choice is yours, of course. When the time comes, little brother, you can come over, our emperor is very prosperous, and there are many places to play. There are many beautiful women. I think you are such a young and promising teenager, I don't know how many princesses will love you. "The general is now beginning to influence him subtly.

Zhang Qi's face was a little red, a little embarrassed: "The general said he laughed." I'm just an ordinary person, and that's worth those sons and brothers in the empire. But what the general said was true. Zhang Qi thought of the current situation of the tribe, but he was worried, "When the time comes, the place where our tribe will live, we will have to let the general worry more." And I feel that there are many shortcomings in me. I hope you will let me and the children of the tribe study in your empire's academy. I myself will join the army after a few years of study. Then I'll have to trouble you again. ”

The general was overjoyed, and he didn't care about the others first. As long as Zhang Qi can stay in the empire alone, this will make the general very satisfied.

"Okay, all these things are wrapped up in me. And after you joined the army, you were in my army. I'll give you a team of men to command. The general said, thinking in his heart that this must be a good relationship. Later, the general who watched the border guard was still there. Every time I go to him, I have to mention how the controller is. Let a group of people blush there. I'm much younger than him. To be young is to have potential.

"Hehe, thank you for your kindness. However, let's get over the current hurdle first. I just don't know where the princess is?" Zhang Qi asked the last sentence, and his voice was very small.

Zhang Qi's words also pulled the general from a beautiful fantasy to reality. He thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he whispered to Zhang Qi: "The real princess is indeed in this team. Don't tell anyone. ”

Although Zhang Qi guessed it, he was still surprised when he really heard it. There is also a feeling of thumping in my heart. It's a bit heavy.

Zhang Qi nodded, signaling that he would not talk nonsense. The two stopped talking. The general got up and walked near the carriage, found a good position to keep an eye on the carriage and defend it, and lay down.

Midnight......

Zhang Qi didn't fall asleep, he kept looking up at the stars in the sky. This was the first time he had experienced this, and he was inevitably a little upset.

Looking at the meteors that crossed the sky from time to time, and listening to the cries of forest insects, Zhang Qi slowly felt a little sleepy. Naturally, there are people who keep watch. Zhang Qi also forced himself to sleep, so as not to lose his energy the next day. Zhang Qi rolled over and closed his eyes.

At the window of the carriage, the curtain was lifted, and a strange man in a black robe looked at Zhang Qi.

"You like him?" came a soft inquiring voice from the carriage.

The weirdo lowered the curtain. "Perhaps. ”

Zhang Qi turned over to face the carriage, saw the flickering curtain, and closed his eyes.

At noon the next day, the procession continued to walk through the forest. The direction of this team is in the direction of the town of "Moonset". In less than a day, you can get there.

In the general's mind, the three teams that returned home were bait to attract reinforcements. The other is to disperse the power of the existing men in black, and it is also a decoy. The purpose of all four teams is to take the pressure off this team. However, according to the tribesmen, there is less than a day to go to the town of "Moonset". Then, the men in black will definitely attack this team in the next few hours. At that time, the battle will be in full swing and the flight will begin.

As long as they flee to the small town of "Moonset", they will not attack blatantly. As long as you can pass the frontier pass of the "Sundust" Empire, the danger will be lifted. That's when it's complete security. And the whole journey takes two or three days.

The sun is starting to set, and dusk is ......

The temperature of the sun gradually decreases, and the air gradually condenses. Everyone's attention is also on high alert. The ranks were silent. There is only the sound of walking. There was an eerie atmosphere in the air.

In the carriage, the strange man in black took off his bow and arrows, drew an arrow from the quiver tied to his waist, and put it on the bow and arrow, ready to shoot at any moment.

The princess on the opposite side is also dressed in tribal clothes. He is about the same age as Zhang Qi. Looking at the movements of the strange man in black, she looked very nervous, opened her mouth, and stopped talking. The strange man in black glanced at the princess and said, "If you want to lean over, lean over." ”

When the princess heard this, she was overjoyed, and immediately sat down beside the strange man in black, and leaned very close. Smelling the smell of the strange man in black, his expression was also a lot more relaxed.

Zhang Qi had a stone sword wrapped around his back, and the other stone sword was in Meimei's place. He did the same thing as the weirdo in black.

"Whoosh!" a sharp arrow burst through the air and shot at the coachman who was driving the horse. The strange man in black heard the sound and drew his bow from the window of the carriage and aimed it in the direction where the arrow was coming. Didn't go to the rescue driver in the first place. The moment she shot it, an arrow also shot out of the group and shot it in front of the coachman, and the arrows of the two arrows collided in front of the coachman, and sparks sparked. The two arrows shattered directly because of the strong collision. The driver was just scratched in the face by the scattered debris.

Another arrow rushed deep into the forest, and a scream was heard.

The horse was frightened, neighed, and stopped. The groom held the horse firmly so that it would not go berserk so that the carriage would not be harmed. It was like a signal, and there were more than 200 people rushing out of the depths of the forest, seven times the number of the group.

The team was also very responsive. After Zhang Qi rescued the groom, several soldiers around him immediately surrounded Zhang Qi and firmly protected Zhang Qi with their bodies. The leader shouted, and the groom whipped the horse ruthlessly, and the sound of "pop" was crisp and loud. The horse was whipped, neighed, and galloped forward. Everyone in the team followed the back of the carriage and rushed out of the black-clothed men. The black-clothed leader shouted and cursed, kicked the men who were afraid of the horses and bypassed, and motioned to all the black-clothed men to chase!!

Zhang Qi and the others followed the carriage two hundred meters away, but heard the horse's mournful roar, the horse tripped over a rope, and the horseman who was driving the carriage was thrown out of front more than ten meters away by the huge inertia and fell heavily to the ground. The carriage was overturned in an instant.

The general yelled anxiously, but at this moment, no one could help.

Just as the carriage was about to crash, a black-robed strange man jumped out of the carriage with a girl on his back and landed firmly in front of the groom......
