Chapter 10: A Great Game of Chess
(Hold your fists, thank you for the support of all heroes and heroes.) οΌ
"I think that Qi Gongzi will dare to fight people in the future!" Makino reached out and touched the corners of his eyes that were a little bruised, and then took out the rouge gouache that Su Qin bought from his chest, "Fortunately, these things are not lost, otherwise I don't know how to explain to Qingqing when I go back." β
"All the oil-paper umbrellas I bought were gone. Su Qin sighed a little helplessly, looked up at the night sky, the few stars, and the moon was half bent.
Just now in front of the Splendid Chunmei Garden, Su Qin and Mu Ye dealt with the four big men brought by Qi Yuqiong, they didn't use swords, they only fought hard with their fists and feet, at the beginning Mu Ye was abnormal with one enemy and three fierce, but the guards responsible for protecting Qi Yuqiong were the guards who were responsible for guarding the City Lord's Mansion, and their fists and feet were naturally good, at least they were very durable, if it weren't for Su Qin who later took down Qi Yuqiong and threatened his subordinates and those who rushed to the Splendid Nursing Academy, now the two of them are probably trapped in the Splendid and can't get out or stay in the dungeon of Qingyun City.
After taking Qi Yuqiong as a hostage and leaving the splendid scenery, Su Qin Muye sat in Qi Yuqiong's carriage and rushed to the north gate of Qingyun City non-stop, Mu Ye rushed to the car in front, Su Qin watched Qi Yuqiong in the carriage and 'talked' with Qi Yuqiong by the way, although the time to close the city gate had already passed, but with Qi Yuqiong as a cover, Su Qin and Muye went out of the city much more smoothly.
The two people who went out of the city threw Qi Yuqiong out of the carriage, and Makino also jumped out of the car and kicked Qi Yuqiong with both feet and said that the young city lord would be indefinite, Su Qin removed the rope on the horse's back, threw away the carriage, and the two of them rushed to the tribe with one horse and one horse, and the distance of thirty miles was fast and the horse whipped for nearly an hour before arriving at the Adis Mountains.
When they arrived in the Adis Mountains, the two did not stay for a moment, abandoned their horses and went up the mountain, they grew up in the mountains, and the mountain road was not much different from the official road, the two saw a bucket-thick spotted python along the way, bypassed a brown bear, and met two wild boars that were mating, if it were not for the fear of being discovered by a dozen foraging wolves - the main reason was that the two did not have bows and arrows on their bodies, and the two stayed in the trees until the wolves went away before going down the tree, so that the time for the two to return to the Xi Barbarian Clan was half an hour later than Su Qin had scheduled.
The tribe of the Xi Barbarian is located at the foot of a mountain called 'Ge Feng', the terrain is relatively gentle, and the tribal house extends nearly three miles from the foot of the mountain, after all, the Xi Barbarian is not the largest number of the twenty-four tribes in the tribal alliance, but it is also one of the six major tribes, looking at Su Qin who came back, the tribesmen in the tribe who have not rested immediately cheered when they saw Su Qin and said that the third prince is back.
During the day, Su Qin's sale of stones has been spread throughout the tribe, and now as soon as everyone saw Su Qin, they immediately surrounded him, and when they looked at Su Qin again, they had a little more praise in their eyes, and a few old people with high prestige in the tribe also said that the third prince had grown up unconsciously, which was the pride of our Xi barbarians.
Su Qin greeted everyone in the tribe with a smile, and said some things about Qingyun City, and everyone reluctantly dispersed, watching the crowd disperse Su Qin shouted Mu Ye twice, but no one answered, Su Qin secretly scolded this guy who is heavy on color and light on friends, and walked towards the mountain.
Came to the place where I lived - a simple wooden house that was not big, the roof was paved with leaves and straw mats, the innermost part of the wooden house was a wooden bed, there was a pile of books piled up at the head of the bed, there was a wooden table in the middle of the house, there was a teapot with four flower bowls on it, three stone piers under the wooden table, and the others were some simple living utensils and some animal skins and other clothes, looking at the wolf head at the head of the bed with its fangs slightly exposed, Su Qin smiled and was about to drink saliva, when he heard an old voice from behind, came back?
Su Qin didn't need to look back to know who it was, this voice had appeared in nightmares a few times before, "Old man, I forgot to buy you a drink to drink." Su Qin poured a bowl of herbal tea as he spoke, and Niu drank it, his original intention was to buy some wine for this stinky old man who was studying by himself when he saw Mu Hatyu out of the city in the afternoon, but a series of things happened that made him a little overwhelmed.
"I knew you wouldn't buy ......" the old man said and walked in, looked Su Qin up and down twice, then twitched his nose, frowned and said You killed someone?
It may be a hunchback, the old man is not tall, a face is very dark, the wrinkles on his forehead are carved on his face like hills, a pair of brown eyes are deeply sunken in the sockets, a pinch of short and hard mustache on the chin, unkempt gray hair on his head, wearing a black robe, he is a wizard of the Xi Barbarian Clan, and he is also Su Qin's teacher, in Su Qin's impression, the old man has always been like this, and there has been no major change in more than ten years.
Hearing the old man say that he had killed someone, Su Qin was shocked, and hurriedly turned his head to look outside the wooden house, and saw that no one came to the old man and said Your old man is quiet, if it weren't for my sharp hands and feet, no one would buy you wine to drink.
After saying this, Su Qin remembered that something was wrong, then looked himself up and down, and asked with questions How do you know?
"Although I am old, I can still distinguish between human blood and animal blood. Speaking of this, the old man walked to the side of the wooden bed, "You smell of blood." β
Su Qin secretly sighed and said that the wizard was a master of hunting when he was young, and it seemed to be true.
"I don't know who did it. Speaking of this, Su Qin paused for a moment, remembering the contempt in the eyes of the last swordsman, "I was followed after entering Qingyun City, and then wanted me to die, so I killed them." Su Qin said and took out a knife spike from his arms, "Can you find anything from above?"
The wizard took the knife spike handed over by Su Qin, looked it up and down, and shook his head, "This kind of thing is used for decoration, and it is difficult to find clues." β
"That's all those people can take with them. Su Qin exhaled, then sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the wizard and said I killed someone for the first time, and now I am still scared when I think about it.
"If a manly man wants to make a contribution, he must learn to be ruthless. Looking at Su Qin, the wizard's words changed, "How are you going to go to the Heavenly Forbidden?"
"It's also being considered. Su Qin smiled bitterly.
"Men should be judged and constantly suffer from it. A glimmer of light flashed in the wizard's eyes, but Su Qin didn't see it, he was lowering his head and thinking about what Mu Hate Yu was doing in the Tribal Alliance.
"If you don't have any results tonight, your brother Su Mu will become the new patriarch of the Xi Barbarian Clan in a few days, and your fiancΓ©e will ......" The wizard said this, patting Su Qin's shoulder with a shriveled palm, "There is a situation within the Yao Clan now, if Mu Luoqi wants to continue to be in charge of the Yao Clan, he must rely on his daughter, if you can't be the patriarch, your marriage will definitely come to naught." β
"You can't be afraid of those beasts in the Heavenly Forbidden, right?" Seeing that Su Qin lowered his head and was silent and did not speak, the wizard added another sentence.
"You don't have to provoke me. Su Qin raised his head and smiled bitterly, and said with some distress I just don't know how to face my brother when the time comes.
"Do you think about your brother, do you think about your brother? Not to mention that there is a woman you love, you won't forget the fact that your brother almost beat you to death when you were a child, right? The wizard looked up through the cracks in the roof and looked at the sky outside, as if caught in a memory.
"But ......"
"Nothing. A hint of gloom flashed in the wizard's eyes, "These people who assassinated you, if I'm not mistaken, should be the nomads of the north. β
"What do they have to do with me?" Su Qin was puzzled.
"They have nothing to do with you, but they have something to do with the Xi Barbarian Clan, and they have something to do with the entire tribal alliance, do you remember the great war between the tribal tribes and the alliance countries three hundred years ago, I heard your eldest brother Su Tu say that a prince of Mangguo came to the tribal alliance. β
It's the Tribal Alliance again, and Mu Hatyu is also in the Tribal Alliance, Su Qin muttered, then turned his head to look at the wizard and said Is there any way to let me go to the Tribal Alliance?
"Yes. A smile of conspiracy flashed on the wizard's face, "Go to the Heavenly Forbidden, even if you are not the patriarch after you come out, you still don't want to go anywhere in the entire tribe of the Adis Mountains?"
The wizard looked at Su Qin's heart-warming appearance, and his mood was a little better, and he silently said in his heart, Childe, follow the route I arranged for you, because you still have a long, long way to go in the future.
"I'm talking about now!" Su Qin glared at the wizard in annoyance.
"Now?" the wizard chuckled, "now go to the Patriarch, and I'll tell him you'll come back in the evening to look for him." β
Su Qin clenched his fists, then looked at the wizard and said with some seriousness, Your old man, this is forcing me into the Heavenly Forbidden.
The heart said that is, I have played this game of chess for eighteen years, and it is up to you to win or lose. The wizard smiled, and then said something unfathomable, "I'm just the one who lays out, and you're the one who plays chess." β
ββI don't know how many people have guessed it, but when I think of some of the future episodes, I have a shuddering feeling, hoping that it can be written, and I will give it up and pee.
