"Yes, the Great Chief wants you to go to the tribe to meet him." It was the messenger from the tribe who spoke.

Ma Whistle asked, "Because of what?" ”

The messenger said: "The Great Chief regrets what happened last year, and he wishes to be able to talk to you face to face and restore you to the post of War Chieftain." ”

Ma Whistle frowned slightly: "I'm a little busy for the time being, let me arrange it." ”

The messenger hesitated: "The Great Chief hopes that you can go to the tribe as soon as possible...... In fact, he has been unwell lately, and he is worried that he may not have much time, so he wants to talk to you as soon as possible, and he also knows that you are well-versed in medicine and wants your help. ”

That sounds reasonable.

But the horse whistle beckoned anyway, and instructed the people: "Arrange for the messenger to rest, and let him taste our wine and food—the drinking house does not restrict him." ”

The messenger wanted to say something, but several of the sleeping bear people did not want him to say anything, and took him half-politely and half-forcibly to the drinking house, followed by a full stream of wine.

As the messenger of the Great Chief of the tent, this person is also a good drinker, just like the Great Chief.

When he smelled the wine, he quickly and obediently took the spirits, and exchanged glasses with the others in the drinking room, chatting and laughing.

The room was filled with the smell of alcohol and, of course, the cheerful air.

"Was this cup bought from a white man? Looks good, haha. The messenger drank the liquor from the glass, then looked at the glass in his hand.

"yes."

"Glass, it's so much better to drink with it than a leather bag." Several of the other drinkers said, taking small sips of their wine.

When the messenger saw this, he was surprised and said, "Why do you drink so little?" Drink hard. ”

Several people smiled politely: "We spend a lot of money to drink, and if we drink half a glass more, the price will increase by three times, but we don't dare to drink hard." ”

"Alcohol is limited! In fact, we also know that drinking is not good, but we can't quit all the time, just take this bite, what can I do! ”

"But envoy, you don't have to worry about the alcohol restriction order, just drink it, we see that you have a lot of enjoyment in drinking."

When the messenger heard this, he said disapprovingly: "You have a lot of rules! ”

As he spoke, he got drunk and staggered out of the drinking house......

After a few moments, inside the Hall of the Chiefs.

"How's it going, little brute, have you asked anything?" The horse whistle looked at the little brute.

Ma Sentry felt that the little beast seemed harmless, so he asked the drunken messenger to see if he could get anything to say.

Horse Sentry had to do this, for he could no longer trust the Great Chief, after all, he was the one who had murderous intentions against him.

The little brute shook his head: "No. Although the guy was drunk, he had a pretty tight mouth, and I didn't ask anything, or maybe he didn't know anything. ”

"It could also be that you're not up to the mark." Someone teased him, he was often teased by people.

Ma Whistle was silent for a moment: "What do you think?" ”

Lao Xiong said: "I heard that you have a conflict with the Great Chief, although I don't know the specific situation...... But after all, he is our big chief, and since he is willing to reconcile, you can go and talk to him face to face, we are all family. ”

Duyan immediately said: "Guarding the tent is definitely not good, he is a narrow-minded old guy!" Chief, you must not go to the Horde! ”

The horse whistle looked at the stone jay.

Although the stone crow is definitely not resourceful, as his teacher, he is naturally more trusted.

And compared with other clansmen, the ability of the stone crow is also relatively outstanding, the young people are not as experienced as him, and the middle-aged and elderly people are not as literate as him.

Therefore, when Ma Whistle makes a decision, he always listens to the ideas of the stone crow, although most of them are useless, but it can be regarded as a combination of listening and understanding.

Shi Yao said and groaned, "I think what Old Bear and Duyan said makes sense. ”

"One thing to say, indeed." The little brute nodded in response.

Ma Whistle sighed.

However, there is actually nothing difficult to choose about this matter, it is absolutely impossible for him to trust the Great Chief, and he highly suspects that the Great Chief wants to play the Hongmen Banquet.

But he also had some scruples about directly ignoring the orders of the Great Chief.

As the head of the plain tribe, the prestige of guarding the tent is still quite high. After all, all the clans of the Plains tribe are basically differentiated from the clan where the tent is guarded.

In Ma Sentinel's cognition, the status of the tent guard in the tribe is somewhat similar to the feeling of Zhou Tianzi in ancient China...... Of course, compared with Zhou Tianzi, this is not even a youth version.

All in all, the relationship between tribes and clans is somewhat similar to that of the early Chinese feudal system, which is the result of the cognitive fusion of the two worlds.

After thinking about it, the horse whistle made a decision - to take the army to meet the Great Chief.

If the Great Chief really has no ill will, it doesn't hurt to reconcile.

If the Great Chief wants to do something, he will never be relentless.

Taking the army to the Great Chieftain is also clearly an act of disrespect. In the style of ancient Chinese painting, you have to play the banner of "Qing Jun's side", but there seems to be no better plan.

"Alone, gather a hundred soldiers tomorrow and follow me to the tribe." Ma Whistle said.

Early the next morning, looking at the hundred soldiers gathered in a neat line behind the horse sentry, the messenger's eyes widened: "This ...... You, how did you bring so many fighters? ”

"Beware of white people." Ma Whistle said.

The messenger tried to argue: "Whites? There were no white cities in the vicinity, and the journey to the tribe was not far. The Great Chief wants to see you, but you bring so many warriors, you are simply despising the Great Chief! ”

Ma Whistle didn't care what he said: "I believe the Great Chief will understand me, all right, let's go." ”

The tribe is located about 300 kilometers to the south, and the horse whistle carries more than 100 people, and there is no hurry to travel, so it has to walk for a week.

Plains Tribes.

Ever since the visit of the Comanche envoy, I have been anxious about the rainy day.

He didn't know what the Great Chief had in mind, and despite his repeated side knocks, the Great Chief remained vague.

This deepened his anxiety.

It was clear that the Great Chief did not want to be honest with him. And as he was a close person to the horse whistle, the big chief didn't want to tell him the truth, and the reason was naturally coming out.

Rainy Sky was already vaguely aware of the Great Chief's intentions, but he still had luck in his heart, and always wanted to confirm it before making a decision.

Finally, in the evening, after a hunt, the people returned to the tribe with their harvested bison, followed by a barbecue party to enjoy spirits and meats.

At the barbecue party, the tent guards drank a lot of spirits, their faces flushed, and their bodies swayed.

Rainy day hesitated for a moment, and then walked to the side of the tent: "Great chief." ”

"Drink!" The tent guard directly handed him a bag of wine, and instructed involuntarily, and the wine was smoky as he spoke.
