In fact, Ye Ying's had wanted to go to Beiban for a long time, even if there was no Zhuge Ying, he had to go to Beiban.

According to the narrative of the three masters, Beiban is Ye Ying's birthplace, and the former Empress Zhu, who handed herself over to Ye Shuai, as well as his biological father and grandfather, have never returned since they were caught in Beiban.

In fact, Ye Ying didn't have much affection for this biological father and grandfather, and even had some hatred, it was precisely because of the incompetence and cowardice of these two emperors that Daning was actually bullied by the Northern Barbarians who were much younger than him for many years, and even the queen and ministers were arrested.

But for the fierce Empress Zhu, his biological mother, Ye Ying still respects it very much. After handing herself over to Ye Shuai back then, Empress Zhu heroically chose to break herself.

And the two emperors of Daning, Ye Ying's biological father and grandfather, did not show any pride of the Daning royal family, and chose to live a slave-like life under the fence of Daning, and finally ended up in a foreign country.

In the depths of Ye Ying's heart, there is a great person who is most respected, that is Ye Fei, the eagle commander who exchanged his son's life for Ye Ying, this hero who has fought for Daning for many years is the image of Ye Ying's father.

Ye Ying went to Beiban this time, in addition to looking for ministers like Zhuge Ying who were lost in Beiban but would rather die than give in, there was also a purpose, that is, to take a look at the place where he was born and pay tribute to his mother, who was a woman who did not let her eyebrows.

There is a huge Xiongguan in front of you, the city wall is tens of meters high, all of which are made of large stones, and there are steep cliffs on both sides, and it is impossible to make a detour from both sides.

"This is Ning Taiguan?" Seeing this pass, Ye Ying involuntarily asked, and after hearing Ge Niu'er beside him, Ye Ying fell into silence.

This Ning Taiguan used to be the first Xiongguan in Daning, and it was the biggest barrier in Daning to resist the invasion of foreign enemies, and when I was a child, I heard this name from the mouth of the storyteller in the village.

It's a pity that this pass has now become the bag of the Northern Barbarians, and the Northern Barbarians can start from this Ningtai Pass at any time, and after robbing the property of the people of Daning, they will return to the back of the pass, so that the officers and soldiers of Daning who are chasing will sigh.

Originally, according to common sense, even if the Northern Barbarians were fierce and the soldiers were very powerful, they would not be able to capture the first pass of Daning, which was thick in this city.

However, due to the serious corruption in Daning's officialdom, some people even dared to withhold the materials of the soldiers at the forefront of the line, which caused the soldiers guarding the customs to complain.

In the end, some of the guards and generals couldn't resist the temptation of the Northern Barbarians' heavy money, and gave this Xiongguan with Daning as the biggest barrier to the Northern Barbarians, and finally caused the hundred barbarians to drive straight into the Ningtai Pass and directly hit the capital of Daning.

The meaning of the name of Ning Taiguan was to ensure that Daning was peaceful and uneventful, and the Beiban did not change this name after seizing this Xiongguan, which was obviously to satirize Daning's incompetence.

"Big boss, after passing the previous pass, you will reach the territory of the Northern Barbarians." Ge Niu'er's words on the side interrupted Ye Ying's contemplation and brought him back to reality.

"I've said it many times, I want to call the young master." Listening to Ge Niu'er's words, Ye Ying frowned and glared at him slightly.

"Yes, young master!" Ge Niuer slapped the back of her head hard, blaming herself for her poor memory, everyone had reminded herself many times, but she couldn't remember.

In order not to avoid unnecessary trouble, this trip to the Northern Barbarians, everyone was still accompanied by a caravan, the whole team was only forty or fifty people, and there were several carriages, all of which were medicinal materials and animal skins obtained by the bandits in the mountains.

In addition to Ye Ying's direct guards, there were also Qi Jiao and Shan Fu, two guys who couldn't calm down. Originally, Fan Lingyan was the one she wanted to go to the most, but she was the actual head of the family on Chasing Fengling Mountain, and she really couldn't leave her brothers below to go alone.

Although the Beiban and Daning are two hostile countries, they do not prohibit the two caravans from coming and going, and when they enter the customs with words and deeds, although the Beiban soldiers strictly check the materials they carry, they do not embarrass them, and they are quickly released.

Compared with Daning, the Northern Barbarians belong to the bitter cold land, where the weather is cold and there is very little vegetation, so the things that can be produced are very limited, this is the main reason why the Northern Barbarians always like to loot around.

After a few days of walking, the mountains gradually became less and replaced by patches of green land, mixed with some deserts and Gobi, and the sun was sweating at noon, but it was still a little cold in the morning and evening.

After entering the hinterland of the Northern Barbarians, Ye Ying and the others discovered a strange phenomenon, almost every household here had slaves to help them grow crops or raise cattle and sheep. The status of the slave is very low, and the master's family will beat and scold at every turn.

Later, Ye Ying and others slowly figured out the reason, but this reason caused almost everyone in the entire team to become very depressed.

Because most of these slaves were the people of Daning captured by the Northern Barbarians, many of them were nobles or the children of official eunuchs in Daning, but when they were caught in the Northern Barbarians, they had to bow their noble heads and honestly became subordinates here.

The Northern Barbarians were very cruel to these Daning slaves, and they did a lot of work every day, but most of them were not clothed and fed. Many slaves can't live this kind of life, and if they want to escape, if they are caught, they will be beaten like hell.

Ye Ying and the others have even seen slaves being beaten to death along the way, and the officials of the Northern Barbarians will not care about this situation. For these slaves are the private property of every family.

Looking at the tragic experience of these Daning people in Beiban, Ye Ying felt very uncomfortable in his heart, but he had nothing to do about this situation, so he could only pretend not to see it. But in his heart, he secretly decided that one day he had the ability, and he must help these Daning people return to their homeland as much as possible.

However, these northern barbarians were still very polite to the merchants who came from Daning, because of the barren land, they had few supplies here. The very ordinary daily necessities transported from Daning are very precious here.

Because of this reason, the materials brought by Ye Ying and his party are very sought-after here, and the selling price is much more expensive than in Daning, just in the days when they entered Beiban, they have already sold a lot of things.

This situation made everyone in Yixin very happy, and some people even proposed to organize a caravan to traffic materials to the Northern Barbarians.

But what happened next, don't let many people dispel this idea, because these northern barbarians, many of them look like honest ordinary people during the day, and turn into bandits to rob passing merchants at night.

Along the way, Ying Ying and the others encountered at least seven or eight inexplicable attacks, but fortunately, there were a large number of them in their group, and there were three masters among them, so those blind thieves were beaten and crawled without exception, and had to flee in embarrassment.

However, after a few more days, these blind thieves began to decrease. Under the explanation of a bandit who has come to the North Barbarians many times, everyone understands the reason, it turns out that this place is close to Lingxing, the capital of the North Barbarians, and there are often patrolling soldiers in this area, and there is no good fruit to eat if they are caught.

Lingxing is the first destination of Ye Ying's trip, and Ye Ying was born in a farm outside Lingxing City, and Ye Ying's mother, Zhu Lian, the former queen of Daning, is also said to be buried near that farm.

Getting closer and closer to Lingxing City, Ye Ying's mood began to become a little depressed, this place was the place where he was born, and it was also the place where his mother, who he had never seen since he was sensible, committed suicide after being humiliated and angry. Ye Ying's heart was very repulsive to this place, but he knew that he had to go to this place to have a look.

"You little rabbit, I'm going to kill you today." At this time, there was a sudden roaring sound from a house on the side of the road, and then a very strong northern barbarian came out of the courtyard, carrying a boy about seven or eight years old.

From the intermittent words of the Northern Barbarian, everyone quickly judged that the little boy had stolen it, what was the Northern Barbarian about? That's why I was beaten.

But the strange thing is that the northern barbarian man looked very heavy, and a rattan in his hand kept hitting the little boy's body, and the child was covered in blood at this time, but he didn't make a sound of crying and begging for mercy, as if the rattan did not hit him.

He is beating his own slaves again. Along the way, Ye Ying and the others were used to seeing this situation, and they had already become numb, so they were ready to turn a blind eye and continue to move forward as before.

But this time, when Ye Ying inadvertently looked at the little boy, he was moved by the stubbornness and unyielding in his eyes.

From the eyes of this little boy, Ye Ying seemed to see himself back then, after the death of Liu Laohan, who adopted him. Ye Ying, who was very hungry, would sometimes get a little food in the village mule and horse trough. was also caught and beaten by the villagers, and he was like this at that time.

It can be seen that this northern barbarian shot very hard, and it must be very painful to hit such a young boy, but this little boy still didn't say a word all his life, and there was a stubborn look in his eyes.

"You little rabbit, you don't have much strength to work, but you can eat it, I told you to steal it, I told you to steal it!" The more the Northern Barbarian spoke, the more angry he became, and he hit the little boy harder a few times, but seeing that the little boy still had no reaction, he threw him far away with a force on his hand.

Unfortunately, there happened to be a large rock in the distance, and if the little boy was hit on that stone, he would have to pay serious injuries if he did not die.

Faced with this sudden situation, the bandits behind Ye Ying couldn't help but let out an exclamation, and many people couldn't help but close their eyes, unable to bear to see this cruel scene.

At this critical moment, a figure suddenly burst out of the crowd, quickly came to the little boy, and grabbed him.

At this time, everyone saw clearly that it was Ye Ying who grabbed the little boy, and the little boy who had just escaped was looking at him with grateful eyes, but the strange thing was that there was no fear in the eyes of this little boy.

"Don't you think it's too cruel for Your Excellency to treat a child like this?" Ye Ying put the little boy on the ground and looked at the Northern Barbarian with angry eyes.

"Can you control my punishment of my own slaves?" The northern barbarian looked at Ye Ying and his party, and said in an arrogant tone.

"A subordinate is also a human being, and if you do this, you will be punished by God." The words of the Northern Barbarian made Ye Ying very angry, and he couldn't help but say.

"You are Daning people, Daning people are all bad seeds, they dare to meddle with grandpa's affairs, and grandpa will teach you a lesson today." The northern barbarian relied on his strong body and smashed at Ye Ying with one punch.

Looking at the fist swung by the northern barbarian, Ye Ying smiled contemptuously, and then quickly stretched out his right hand, grabbed the right fist of the northern barbarian, and then used a little force.

"Oops...... Oops...... villain served. With a slight force on his hand, the northern barbarian felt as if his fist was about to be crushed, and the severe pain made him beg for mercy again and again.
