All the details were agreed, and the Qiang began to write the covenant in Qin and Xiongnu, respectively.

The Xiongnu did not have their own script, but used the unified script of the northern Di people, and the Northern Di script was very similar to the Xirong script.

After writing the covenant, Ying Zheng signed his name on it and stamped the royal seal.

Touman also wrote his name and then pressed a bloody handprint.

At this moment, the alliance between Great Qin and the Xiongnu was officially reached.

[Later, this agreement was broken by Mao Dun, who killed his father and seized the throne, and this move also completely angered Yingzheng, so he sent Meng Tian to attack the Xiongnu in a big way]

Ying Zheng pulled his head and came to the front of the black fox and said: "The bloodline of this sweaty horse is extremely pure, not only is it handsome, but its speed and endurance are also unparalleled in the world. ”

Touman observed the black fox's head and neck, limbs, belly and hind buttocks with burning eyes, and then gently patted and patted, and muttered in his mouth: "Good horse, good horse!" ”

Ying Zheng put the reins in Touman's hands and said, "Now, it's yours." ”

Tou Man was a little at a loss with joy, and it was not difficult to see from his eyes that at this moment, he really regarded Ying Zheng as a friend.

The black fox seemed to understand what Yingzheng meant, and began to dodge with some reluctance.

After Ying Zheng calmed down, he eased the black fox's mood.

Touman said: "I can't repay the King of Qin for such a heavy gift, why don't you send a few people from the King of Qin, although this king goes back to get Nahe Shibi together?" ”

"Okay, the widow sent a team of men with you." Ying Zheng said, "It's not early, ride this black fox back to repair, and tomorrow the widow will practice it for you." ”

Touman stepped onto the black fox and happily returned to the Huns' camp.

It wasn't until he was far away that Thorin came over and whispered, "Brother Wang, what a pity to send the black fox out like this." ”

Ying Zheng knew that he loved the black fox very much, so he said: "It is worth exchanging a horse for the peace of the north." Besides, isn't the new batch of sweaty horses coming soon, didn't you say a long time ago that you would help the widow raise horses, and you can see them every day in the future. ”

Thorin smiled happily and no longer bothered about the black fox.

Yingzheng asked Wang Jian to select 500 capable soldiers, drive some cattle and sheep, and carry a lot of wine to the Xiongnu camp to comfort the Xiongnu warriors.

These sergeants will also go to the steppe with the Hun army, and then return with He's Bi, so they must have a good relationship with the Huns first.

The team of military doctors brought from Xianyang also followed into the Xiongnu camp and began to treat the wounded.

After everything was arranged, Ying Zheng sent several teams of men to search for Ji Fa.

Ji Fa should have arrived at Yinshan Mountain a long time ago, presumably directly to the Fire Eye, so he hasn't appeared yet.

Early the next morning, as soon as Ying Zheng got up, he saw Ji Fa enter the camp.

After sitting down in the big tent, Ying Zheng hurriedly asked, "Master, have you already been to the fire eye?" ”

Ji Fa nodded and said, "Well, I went to see the prison cow, and it really wants to meet you." ”

"Then you rest for a while, and then we'll go." Ying Zhengdao.

The two of them ate something, prepared something, took what they should bring, only brought the Meng Tian brothers and a few guards, and then set off to the fire eye in the depths of Yin Mountain to visit the prison cow.

Because he wanted to cross several lines of defense of the Zhao army, Ying Zheng simply went directly to find Li Mu.

Li Mu had already learned the news of Yingzheng's arrival, and was about to go to the Qin army camp to find out, but he didn't expect that King Qin would come directly, so he hurriedly invited them into the big tent.

After some politeness, Li Mu asked:

"May I ask King Qin, this Huns have been besieged for several days, what arrangements should be made?"

Ying Zheng smiled and told him about signing an alliance with Tou Mandan, but omitted the matter of building the Great Wall.

Li Mu blinked and muttered, "In this way, the Zhao State will not be harassed by the Xiongnu in the future?" ”

"They won't come again." Ying Zheng said quite firmly, "At least, Tou Manshan will not be in power for all these years." ”

"Hehe, then Zhao Guo has a lot less trouble." Shepherd Li breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since the state of Zhao, the friction with the Xiongnu and Donghu has not been broken. ”

"So, this time it's not in vain." Ying Zheng said sarcastically, "At the beginning, the widow asked you to give way, but you still didn't agree. ”

Li Mu said with a guilty face: "That's not my idea, besides, King Zhao was seriously ill at that time, and he couldn't respond immediately." ”

Ying Zheng asked with concern: "What is the situation in the court of Zhao State now?" ”

Li Mu replied: "When I came out, I had basically stabilized. Although Zhao Jia was unconvinced, because he had been deposed for many years, he basically lost his power, and the important ministers in the court did not dare to disobey the old king's will, so basically no one supported Zhao Jia anymore. ”

"It's good to be stable." Ying Zheng said, "For the fluctuation of your court this time, the widow also has a certain responsibility, but fortunately, there is no major incident." By the way, Daqin has broken through a lot of cities in Zhao State, don't you blame the widows. ”

Li Mu was a real person, and said bluntly: "If you want to say that it's not to blame, that's a lie, after all, the loss of Zhao State is not small, and King Qin, you went back on your word, and suddenly killed him." ”

Ying Zheng felt guilty and arched his hand: "General Li, forgive me, the widow was indeed helpless at that time. You also know the fleeting truth of the fighter plane, if the widow does not choose so much, maybe facing the Huns now, it will be a different situation. ”

Li Muxin said yes, if Solin and the others didn't rush to the battlefield quickly, and they didn't lead their troops to surround them, how could that Mandanyu obediently obey?

Compared with the losses suffered by the Great Qin siege, it seems that the benefits brought by the suppression of the Xiongnu are greater.

Thinking of this, Li Mu said: "Forget it, King Zhao didn't say anything, what do I have to say, I just hope that King Qin will not take advantage of the situation in the future." ”

Ying Zheng said in his heart: Of course, I won't take advantage of the void in the future, but I will only go straight in, regardless of whether you are false or not.

Although he thought so in his heart, Ying Zheng said: "This is natural, unless there is turmoil in the Zhao State and needs assistance, the widow will not easily send a large army into the Zhao State." ”

After a pause, Ying Zheng continued: "In order to apologize, all the merits of defeating the Xiongnu this time belong to General Li, and the Great Qin does not need to do anything, and it will be written in the history books in the future." ”

The people of the world, who don't want to leave their names in the history books, especially those military generals with great achievements.

Li Mu's eyes lit up and said, "In this way, Li Mu is not welcome. ”

"Well, when I go back, the widow will tell the world." Ying Zheng smiled and said, "General Li Mu led the Zhao army to attack the Xiongnu and greatly damaged their vitality, and in the past twenty years, they will not attack the Central Plains again." ”

A smug smile flashed in Li Mu's eyes.

"By the way, how is Hu Yu doing?" Ying Zheng asked instead.

Li Mu replied: "After the old king Zhao returned to heaven, the lady was very sad, and she was guarding the spirit until the old king Zhao entered the earth. When I came out with the troops, she was still quite emaciated. ”

When Ying Zheng heard this, he was very worried in his heart.

"That's it, after the Huns leave, the widow will follow you back to Handan and take Hu Yu back." Ying Zheng said, "Maybe she will be in a better mood when she leaves the Handan Palace." ”

"It's best to talk to King Zhao by the way." Li Mu said.

The two chatted a few more words, and Ying Zheng said that he wanted to see the terrain of the entire Yin Mountain and let Li Mu open an opening.

Li Mu personally escorted Ying Zheng and his party through those lines of defense, and gave Ying Zheng a token to use when he returned.

Ji Fa led Yingzheng and the others to continue to advance in the southwest direction, crossing several mountain beams and crossing many valleys, Ji Fa finally stopped, and then ordered everyone to stay put.

Only took Ying Zheng into a valley bottom, Ji Fa took the lead in drilling into a hole, and Ying Zheng followed.

The cave is sloping downward, and the soil is very fluffy and dry.

Twisting and turning, he got out of this cave and entered another cave along the bottom of another valley.

Strange to say, this cave is very dark and damp, and you can faintly hear the wind, which feels a little scary.

Walking out of this cave, we came to the third cave.

Ying Zheng said in his heart: These divine beasts are trouble, and they are always hidden so hidden.

Ji Fa seemed to know his thoughts, looked at him, and said, "Don't worry, after this cave, it is its lair." ”

Ying Zheng nodded and walked in.

This cave is even stranger, even the air is hot, and the feet are very hard, and it seems to be all stones.

After walking a short distance, I began to climb upward, as if I was heading towards the mountain.

I only heard Ji Fa say: "The prison cow doesn't like the dark environment very much, so its nest is in a mountain where sunlight can cast it. ”

"Why do they like different environments?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.

Ji Fa replied: "Those divine beasts, divine birds, come with different attributes of the five elements, just like the five types of divine birds contained in the phoenix clan, the phoenix and the phoenix are the attributes of fire and water respectively, and the remaining Qingluan, Vermilion Bird, and Golden Crow are divided into three attributes: wood, earth, and gold. ”

"Oh, no wonder that golden crow is called a gold-crow." Ying Zheng said, "Shizun once said that the originator of the Golden Crow was imprisoned in the Shaoyang of the Nine Shadows, what is the reason? ”

"If you want to talk about this reason, you have to start with the Pangu ancestors." Ji Fa said, "That's a story that only our Tiancheng family knows, this is not the place to talk, when I go back, I will find a time to talk to you." ”

Although he knows some things about the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Ying Zheng basically hasn't heard much about the story of the Pangu period, and only knows that the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" he recited is supplemented by the Tiancheng lineage, and the original "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is actually a pattern of Pangu's transformation of the planet.

Suppressing the curiosity in his heart, Ying Zheng followed Ji Fa and continued to move forward, because the air was relatively hot, he opened the kettle and drank a few big sips.

I don't know how far I climbed, but I finally came to a more spacious space, and when I looked up, I saw a behemoth staring at this side.

I saw that this divine beast was similar in size to the yak, but it was more than twice as large, and its face was wider than that of Jairus, but it was not as hideous as Jairus, and its pupils were not red. The horns on the head are more pronounced, similar to the antlers of a deer, the mane is not so lush, and the strong muscles are clearly visible.

"Prisoner Ox senior, we're here." Ji Fa said quite politely.

The prisoner bull said expressionlessly: "I have already smelled it, this is not waiting for you." ”

Ying Zheng said in his heart: It turns out that this prisoner cow has a nose, just like Xi's sharp ears.

"Qin Guoyingzheng, I have seen my predecessors." Ying Zheng bowed his hand and saluted.

The prisoner cow looked at Ying Zheng, and his eyes widened a little: "You are Ying Zheng?" Have you brought the gift of the deity, come, and play a song. ”

Ying Zheng: "......"
