Watching a group of bandits rush down the hill in a daze, and then watching them retreat in a daze, the Yang caravan had a sense of absurdity.

Li Yi looked at Jingzi and nodded, sending An Su away, and had a sense of déjà vu.

After thinking about it for a while, he realized that Keiko's expression was very similar to that of Taejizi.

Whenever Tai Jizi met the head of the Lingyu Sect or an elder, he always put on this posture.

And afterwards, Liu Yu would always return to Guigumen angrily to ask Tai Jizi Xingshi for his guilt.

Li Yi felt that this An Su was afraid that he was in the way of respecting Zizheng.

It's just that he doesn't know what Jingzi is doing to Ansu.

And Yang Ping looked at Jingzi, who was still waving goodbye to An Su and the others, and couldn't help but have a question mark in his head.

"I said, Jing Gongzi, what kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd?"

"Then you will know, it's not too early now, let's hurry to the county seat in front of us to rest."

Keiko is putting on an unfathomable look.

Although everyone knows what Keiko must have done, it is not clear what he did.

Seeing that the sun had set in the west, everyone had to hurry up and rush to the county seat to stay.

After all, it is really unsafe to escort so many supplies to stay in this wilderness, who knows if Ansu will kill him at night.

It wasn't until it was completely dark that everyone found a reliable inn in the county seat.

During the meal, Li Yi was really curious, what Jingzi was doing to An Su in the afternoon.

"Senior brother, I'm afraid you don't have some plan to give out so many silver tickets in the afternoon, right?"

"Of course, otherwise you think Senior Brother I will cheapen that guy for nothing?"

Keiko is looking like he is in the chest, and his tone is full of the feeling that he is in control.

"I don't understand, can I buy Ansu with just those few silver tickets?"

Li Yi didn't believe that the leader of a bandit like An Su would have such a low vision.

"That money can't buy Ansu, but sometimes money is not used to buy people, it can also be used to divide people."

Keiko said pointedly.

"Please also ask the senior brother to solve your doubts." Li Yi bowed his hand.

Jingzi was also interested in being asked by Li Yi, so he took a sip of the wine glass.

"Senior brother, can you find something special about this Ansu today?"

Li Yi stared at his eyebrows and thought carefully, and he didn't think about anything special about Ansu for a long time.

"Didn't the junior brother notice Ansu's accent?"

As soon as Jingzi mentioned this, Li Yi immediately remembered that this Ansu accent was indeed very weird.

"Is there anything wrong with this weird accent?"

Although Ansu's accent is weird, it's not a strange thing, after all, the Dayu Dynasty is rich in land, and there are countless local dialects in Tiannan, Haibei, and Ansu's weird accent shouldn't be nothing.

"Then brother asks you again, do you notice any difference in Ansu's eyes?"

Keiko continued to mention.

Li Yi began to recall when he asked like this, and he remembered it in an instant.

"No wonder I always feel a little strange when I look at him today, and after you remind me of this, I remember that Ansu's eyes are not my big black people, but a faint gray-green."

"Could it be that he is from the Prairie tribe?"

Li Yi couldn't help but wonder if Ansu was a member of the grassland tribe.

"Then Xiao Derong is a member of the grassland tribe, have you ever seen that the color of his pupils is different from ours?"

Keiko retorted.

"That's right, the master told me before that the grassland tribe was first split from the Dongyi tribe, and the Dongyi and my Dayu people are of the same ancestry, and it is said that they are both descendants of the Xia Dynasty."

"That's right, although the grassland tribe is an enemy of my Dayu Dynasty and even the previous dynasty, but we are indeed an ancestor in terms of origin, but this Ansu is different."

Keiko was talking while eating vegetables.

"Senior brother, it seems that you have guessed the origin of this Ansu?"

Li Yi also began to think about the knowledge about various ethnic groups that Taijizi had taught in his mind.

"Senior brother, think about this Ansu surname again."

Seeing that Li Yi still hadn't remembered, Jingzi couldn't help but remind.

"Ansu's surname is An, An's surname, is it?"

A name suddenly appeared in Li Yi's mind.

"Senior brother, is this Ansu a person surnamed Zhaowu?"

Li Yi finally thought of the tribe that had been active in the northwest border of the land of China under the prompting of Jing Zizheng.

"That's right, if I'm not mistaken, this Ansu is the person surnamed Zhaowu Jiu."

Keiko gave an affirmative answer.

According to historical records, the nine surnames of Zhaowu are different from the foreign tribe of our Huaxia clan, and Zhaowu is a place name in ancient Longzhou.

At that time, the people with the surname Zhaowu took advantage of the change of the Chinese dynasty and the chaos of all parties to occupy this area privately, and they established Zhaowu City here, and established the country in the name of Zhaowu.

At that time, the nine surnames of Zhaowu were controlled by the nine families, and these nine families were surnamed: Kang, An, Cao, Shi, Mi, Shi, He, and Mu.

In fact, their original surnames were not these nine surnames, but extremely complex foreign surnames.

Because it is different from the Chinese surname, in order to better communicate, they changed the original surname to the Chinese surname, and at that time, the nine major surnames of Huaxia were wealthy families, and they have been inherited in China for thousands of years.

However, although the surname of Zhaowu Jiu has been changed to a Chinese surname, it is very different from other ethnic groups in China in terms of language and culture, religious beliefs and living habits.

And they were a very business-savvy tribe, which led to their great wealth.

It is said that the husband is not guilty of his crimes, and the extremely rich Zhaowu Jiu surname is easy to be targeted by other tribes.

In addition, the number of their tribe is not large, so their combat power is also very weak, and in the eyes of other tribes, this is simply a fat sheep falling from the sky.

Therefore, more than 100 years ago, the nine surnames of Zhaowu were jointly conquered by the three major tribes of Rouran, Chuyue, and Tugu.

At that time, they wantonly slaughtered and plundered the people surnamed Zhaowu, and Zhaowu City was looted by the three major tribes for more than half a month.

It is said that at that time, the three major tribes sacrificed the extremely cruel "wheel slash".

This "wheel beheading" is basically the same name as the slaughter of the city, and it is a means of conquest adopted by the steppe tribes after the siege of the city.

As the name suggests, anyone who is taller than the wheel will have their head cut off.

In practice, the steppe tribes stipulated that women and craftsmen would be excluded from both the slaughter of the city and the beheading of the wheel.

Therefore, the slaughter of the city is more cruel than the wheel beheading, which kills even the children, while the wheel slash kills everyone except the woman, the craftsman and the child.

Later, a large number of women with the surname Zhaowu Jiu became the playthings of the men of the steppe tribe, and the children and craftsmen became his slaves.

After that, the surname Zhaowu basically disappeared in the northwest border area.

However, because the surname Zhaowu Jiu was a tribe that was good at business, in addition to some of the clansmen who escaped at that time, there were many clansmen who were doing business outside the country, so they escaped.

However, since then, the remaining people with the surname Zhaowu have all vowed to exterminate the three tribes of Rouran, Chuyue, and Tugu.

But their numbers were too small and the other party was too strong, so they slowly disappeared into the history books.

It was precisely because of the disappearance of the nine surnames of Zhaowu that the trade between the grassland tribe and the Dayu Dynasty and the Western countries was completely interrupted.

And this indirectly led to the grassland tribes to raid the Dayu Dynasty every year.

"Even if he is a person with the surname Zhaowu Jiu, what can Senior Brother do?"

Li Yi didn't understand that An Su was a person with the surname Zhaowu Jiu, and what was the inevitable connection with Jingzi Zhengpit him.

"Since you know that he is a person with the surname Zhaowu Jiu, then those bandits under him must also know."

"And then?" Li Yi still didn't figure it out.

"It is said that the hearts of those who are not of my race must be different, and the people of my Dayu Dynasty do not trust people of foreign races, do you think those bandits will really trust a person of foreign race completely?"

"I don't think so, the group of bandits who Ansu fought with me today were just standing on the sidelines and watching, even if he defeated the bandits, no one took the initiative to help him."

Li Yi recalled.

"That's right, if my guess is correct, this Ansu and his bandits should use each other, Ansu borrows their large numbers, and the bandits borrow Ansu's martial arts."

The more Li Yi thought about it, the more he felt that what Jing Zizheng said was right.

"So, you stuffed the silver ticket to Keiko precisely to divide them with the strategy of killing the three soldiers with two peaches?"

Li Yi felt that he understood Jing Zizheng's approach.

"I'm afraid that the contradiction between the two parties will not be completely intensified by that little silver ticket, after all, if you give too few peaches, others will not be fooled."

Keiko shook his head.

"Could it be that Senior Brother has other back-ups?"

"Yes, just when you were confronting Na Ansu, I secretly wrote a letter."

Keiko showed a shyness on her face at this time.

"What kind of letter?"

Li Yi now understands that I am afraid that this letter is the key to the counter-plot.

"It's nothing, it's just a letter of recommendation."

"Do you recommend this Ansu to enter the border army?"

Li Yi immediately figured it out, according to the grudge between the Zhaowu nine surnames and the three major tribes of the grassland, as long as there was a chance to enter the border army of the Dayu Dynasty, this An Su would definitely not give up this opportunity for revenge.

"That's right, it's indeed a letter of recommendation recommending him to join the border army."

In the face of Li Yi's point, Jing Zizheng was very satisfied.

"It's just that this letter is not for Ansu to see."

Just when Li Yi thought that he had a thorough insight into Jing Zizheng's plan, Jing Zizheng's words once again completely denied Li Yi's thoughts.

"So, you're really using a counter-strategy? I'm afraid there are no conditions written in the letter, right? ”

"That's right, I only wrote above: I can recommend you to join the border army, and you need to vote sincerely. And I have attached a letter written to me by my brother as proof. ”

Li Yi now completely believes Tai Jizi's evaluation of Jing Zizheng, this guy is indeed a demon.

Li Yi really couldn't believe that Jing Zizheng could formulate this series of plans in such a short period of time based on the speculation that Ansu was the surname of Zhaowu Jiu, and he could also implement it in a very short time.

"Senior brother, the master said that people are too smart and easy to live short, so you better be a little more restrained!"

Li Yi couldn't help but joke.

"Don't worry, the master told me my fortune, saying that I can live to be more than seventy years old, and I will enjoy all the wealth and wealth of a supreme minister!"

Jing Zizheng didn't care about Li Yi's ridicule.

"The master also said that you didn't have a chance to take the imperial examination, why are you still losing and fighting repeatedly?"

Jingzi is facing a black line, in fact, he doesn't believe in his master's so-called divination.

After all, the master said that there was no need to lie to these disciples.

It's just that as he failed the imperial examination for three consecutive years, he also began to have doubts in his heart.

"Haven't you heard the master say: Don't say it if you see through it, leave a line of favor and see each other in the future!"

Keiko complained angrily.

"Haha! The senior brother forgives the sins, and the younger brother is speechless. ”

Jing Zizheng was not annoyed, and the two of them picked up their wine glasses again and ate and drank.

At this time, they felt that they were the legendary Jiang Taigong, and that Ansu was the fish that was about to be baited.

And when Li Yi and Jingzi were toasting and drinking, An Su was also eating and drinking with people in a cave more than ten miles away.

Although he was not able to rob the convoy today, he did not return empty-handed.

This made him feel better, and he was even better at the thought of having a stable income in the future.

By this time a bonfire had been set up in the cave, on which some gophers and hares were roasted.

Because of the drought, there are fewer and fewer large prey in this cave, and even these small animals that were previously unsightly are hungry and thin.

But it's hard to have these things to eat.

"The big boss, although there is no property that can be robbed today, but it can be regarded as a foreign wealth, I wonder if I can take it out and go to the county tomorrow to buy some food for everyone to eat?"

The second master of Huangfeng Village saw that Ansu was in a good mood, so he went straight to the point with a shy face.

These two masters were originally the big masters of this Huangfeng Village, but since this Ansu joined, he abdicated and made way for Xian.

After all, no one wants to be beaten every day.

When An Su heard that the second master asked him for money, he couldn't help but be a little unhappy.

Today he beat the boy for that money, and they didn't do anything.

What's more, when Jingzi was giving him money, he said that he admired him, a hero, and gave him a silver ticket in order to make friends.

So no matter from any point of view, the money should belong to him.

So his face couldn't help but be cold, but thinking that he was the big boss of Huangfeng Village after all, if he refused directly, he was afraid that it would chill the hearts of the brothers.

He then changed the topic and said, "Speaking of money, I remembered whether the ransom was sent to the homes of the two people we arrested two days ago?" ”

The second master couldn't help but disdain when he saw An Su shift the topic to the two meat tickets that were kidnapped: What a barbarian, and come with me, if I didn't see that you still have some use value, how would I give you the name of the big boss.

"Oh, those two families are a little bit away from us, and it will take some time to negotiate back and forth."

The second master replied respectfully.

But he was extremely aggrieved in his heart, thinking that if he hadn't been found out because he had an affair with the concubine of the county order, why would he stop there.

can only blame the moonlight for being too beautiful and moving, and will decide to enter Xiaocui's Luo Sha Red Tent at that moment.

"It's a pity that the clouds and rain are infinitely good overnight, how can the future be over, so far I often stand outside the red wall and deep boudoir, and I don't see the wings and the Qing!"

The second master secretly sang desolate words in his heart.
