Xiao Yunhe didn't expect that next, he would see the power of the old and weak women and children.

Lu San wanted to say something more to Xiao Yunhe, but at this time, the ground suddenly trembled.

Lusan reflexively stood up, glanced around, and then fell to the ground, his left ear pressed to the ground, listening intently.

After listening for a moment, Lusan straightened up, jumped onto a dead tree next to him with a "whoosh", and stood on the highest point and looked west.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Seeing Lu Sang's abnormal expression, Xiao Yunhe stood under the tree and asked strangely.

"Southwest, there's a situation!" Lu Sang jumped down from the tree and said solemnly to Xiao Yunhe.

Xiao Yunhe's heart was shocked, Lu San had already given an order to the others: "Stop resting! Get on your horse! Get ready for battle!"

A group of people immediately got busy, and the soldiers, who were still talking about it just now, soon got on their horses, their longbows in their hands, and their arrows were already on the strings.

Lusan was standing at the front of the line, nervously looking in the direction of the southwest.

The trembling of the ground became more and more intense, and Lu San's expression became more and more severe.

In the distance, a dark figure appeared.

"It's Hu Qi!" Lu Sang's gaze was very sharp, and he recognized the identity of the black shadow from a distance, and Yan Sù's face relaxed a little.

But he still didn't lift the team's guard, and still watched the dark shadow get closer and closer.

A stone's throw from Lussan's position, the shadow stopped.

Lusan walked to the front, waved his arms, and made a few gestures.

Subsequently, Hu Qi also made a few gestures towards Lu San in the distance, but the gestures were different from Lu Sang.

"Alright, put away the bow and arrows first!" Lusan said as he relaxed and said to the soldiers behind him.

The nervous crowd was only then relaxed, but no one dismounted.

Then, he looked at Hu Qi and rushed over from afar.

As soon as he ran back to the front, Lusan rushed forward and asked, "How many people have been found?"

Hu Qi turned over and dismounted, and before he could catch his breath, he replied: "More than two miles ahead, only a group of shepherds was found, and I don't know which tribe it is!"

"Shepherd, why are you giving the alarm signal?" asked Lussan, grim.

"There is something strange about this team of shepherds, there are hundreds of them. I felt something unusual, so I rushed back to report to Brother Lu!" Hu Qi explained.

"Hundreds, do you see clearly?" asked Lusan with his eyebrows squeezed in the middle.

"See clearly, everyone is riding horses, and the number is definitely more than a hundred!" Hu Qi replied with certainty.

"How many sheep are they driving, are there women or children?" asked Lusan again.

"There are a lot of sheep, there should be tens of thousands! If there are women and children, most of them are! Most of them are old people, and there are some children and women! Only twenty-three are young and middle-aged men, and they are on guard on the periphery!" Hu Qi counted these key points very accurately.

"So many flocks...... And so many women and children...... It's a little strange......" Lusan sat on the horse's back, his hand gently caressing the horse's short mane.

"Brother Lu, should we go and take a look?" someone next to him said.

Lusan didn't answer, frowning and pondering.

"Did they notice you?" Lusan asked suddenly, after a moment of silence.

"There's nothing to cover up here, I saw them, and they should see me too!" Hu Qi said with some shame.

Lusang was lost in thought.

At this time, Xiao Yunhe suddenly appeared from Lu Sang's side.

"Brother Lu, someone is here again!" Xiao Yunhe said.

"What? which direction?" asked Lussan.

Xiao Yunhe pointed to the southwest: "That's the direction where Brother Hu came! I lay on the ground and listened for a while, there was the sound of horses' hooves, there should be more than one person!"

It turned out that just now he saw Lu Sang come to listen to the sound of horses' hooves, and Xiao Yunhe did the same, and for a while, he had been lying on the ground and listening.

"Brother Lu, do you want to retreat first?"

"Let's not hurry back and see the situation!" Lusan drew his longbow and looked southwest, "Everyone get on the horse!

After giving this order, Lu Sang glanced at Xiao Yunhe: "Yunhe, you come forward with me to take a look!"

"Yes!" Xiao Yunhe couldn't hide his excitement and nervousness, and jumped on his horse in one step.

"Brother Lu, how can it be enough for just the two of you, let's bring a few more brothers!" Seeing that Lu Sang and Xiao Yunhe were about to set off, there were soldiers who came to dissuade them.

"If it's really a barbarian, even if we all go, it won't help! If the two of us go, if something happens, we will easily get out! Xie Datou, listen! If there is an enemy trace, no matter how many enemies there are, don't retreat quickly! If neither of us comes back within half an hour, you immediately take everyone back to the barracks!" Lu Sang turned around and gave one last order, and galloped out with Xiao Yunhe one after the other.

Two horses and two people, Xiao Yunhe galloped in this desert, and the people behind him had shrunk into small black spots, Xiao Yunhe's extremely nervous heart relaxed a little.

Riding a horse galloping through this vast desert, watching the scenery around him retreat rapidly on both sides, and feeling the unique blazing breath of the desert gently brushing his face, Xiao Yunhe has been tense in his heart since he set out on the expedition, and there is a little more happiness.

Running forward behind Lu Sang, Xiao Yunhe didn't have time to taste the pleasure of galloping on a horse, and Lu San in front of him suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yunhe also stopped and asked in a low voice.

"Someone's coming!" replied Lusan in a low voice.

Xiao Yunhe urged the war horse to take two steps forward, and stood on the front line with Lu Sang and looked forward.

Ahead, there are several black dots moving forward.

"Is it a barbarian?" Xiao Yunhe asked.

From a distance, although Xiao Yunhe's eyesight is good, he can only distinguish that those small black dots are people, and he can't see what those little black dots look like.

"It should be, the barbarians riding horses are not quite the same as us, listening to the frequency of the horses' hooves, it is the barbarians, yes, I just don't know, it is the group of people that Hu Qi met just now. Lusan clenched his bowstring in his hand and said in a deep voice.

"Brother Lu, why did you bring me here? I don't understand anything!" Although Xiao Yunhe knew that it was very inappropriate to ask this question at this time, he still couldn't help the question in his heart.

"Because among the more than twenty people, your strength is the strongest!" replied Lusan without replying.

"Brother Lu, how did you see that?" Xiao Yunhe didn't expect Lu Sang to actually see through his cultivation.

Lusan shook his head and did not answer.

"Brother Lu, what kind of cultivation are you?" Xiao Yunhe asked again.

"Is this question very important? A person's strength is not something that can be represented just by cultivation. Especially on the battlefield, to survive, it doesn't necessarily take a high level of cultivation, but a kind of comprehensive strength. I can see that your strength is definitely much higher than your cultivation. Lusan said lightly.

Xiao Yunhe stopped talking.

"They're coming, get ready!" said Lusan after a moment.

Xiao Yunhe's heart tightened, and his hand couldn't help but grab the longbow hanging on his body.

"Wait a minute! They don't seem to be here with us!" Lu San turned around and pressed Xiao Yunhe's hand with one hand, and said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yunhe looked forward, and sure enough, those people stopped neatly when they were a stone's throw away from the two people.

The men looked in the direction of the two men, and seemed to have discussed a few words, and finally one of them rushed towards them on horseback.

As he ran, the man made a few strange gestures with his arms outstretched, and after running a little further, he stopped again.

Seeing that he had stopped, Lusan suddenly rode forward on horseback.

Xiao Yunhe was about to follow, but Lu San threw him a sentence: "Don't stay here!"

The military order was like a mountain, and Xiao Yunhe could only stop.

Seeing Lusan rushing forward, he also made a few gestures on his horse as he ran.

Xiao Yunhe could see clearly in the back, but he didn't know what it meant.

Immediately after, Lusan met with that person.

Xiao Yunhe's hand tightly grasped the longbow in his hand.

The two of them didn't move as Xiao Yunhe expected, opened their mouths and talked a few words, Lu Sanghu suddenly turned around and beckoned to Xiao Yunhe.

Xiao Yunhe put away his longbow and urged the horse to catch up.

Getting closer to the two, Xiao Yunhe also saw the appearance of that person clearly.

He is not young, he is about forty years old, his complexion is dark, black and thin, and his leather robe is full of oil.

"Yunhe, there's no problem for the time being. Lu Sang whispered in Xiao Yunhe's ear.

"This is ......," Xiao Yunhe said as he faced the barbarian.

As soon as Xiao Yunhe's words came out, the barbarian suddenly opened his mouth and spoke.

But listening to him babble for a while, Xiao Yunhe didn't hear a word clearly, and his eyes looked at the other party with a little more scrutiny.

Lu Sang, who was standing next to Xiao Yunhe, also began to babble at this time, saying things that Xiao Yunhe didn't understand, but Xiao Yunhe faintly felt that it seemed that what Lu San said was the same language as the barbarian.

"Brother Lu, what did you just say, why can't I understand a word?" Seeing that Lu Sang finally finished speaking, Xiao Yunhe asked.

"This is the language of the barbarian tribe, I have already asked just now, they are from the Muga tribe, because the green and strong parts of the headquarters have gone out, so these people have a few families to go out to graze. Lusan explained.

"Brother Lu, how can you speak their language?" Xiao Yunhe asked curiously.

"This is the training content of the Left Guard, all the soldiers, will say. The big heads, a few of them, will also say it. You've been here for too short a short time, so you haven't been exposed yet. Lusan explained.

"Is what they say reliable?" Xiao Yunhe asked.

He always had a deep sense of distrust of barbarians.

"Is it reliable? God knows!" said Lusan with a smile.

The barbarian babbled a lot at the two of them.

"What did he mean?" Xiao Yunhe really couldn't understand what these strange syllables meant.

"He invited us to be their guests!" Lussan translated.

"Do you want to go?" Xiao Yunhe asked.

"Of course we have to go!" isn't it too much of a disappointment for us not to go and see?" Lusan smiled, and turned to the barbarian and muttered a lot.

When the barbarian heard this, he was overjoyed, stepped aside, and stretched out his hand.

Xiao Yunhe understood this gesture, this was inviting the two of them.

"Let's go!" Lu Sang said to Xiao Yunhe and ran out first.

Xiao Yunhe followed closely, and the barbarian followed behind.

The three of them ran for a while and then walked side by side, and the barbarians who had stayed in the distance before were now also running in front, leading several people to run forward.

In this way, Xiao Yunhe and Lu Sang followed this group of barbarians and ran away.

After galloping forward for a distance, Xiao Yunhe saw the sheep first.

It was a very large flock of sheep, as white as the sea, and the fat sheep were "bleating" and grazing on the grass under their feet.

Then, Xiao Yunhe saw the crowd around the flock.

In twos and threes, around the flock, there are many people distributed, around the range of the flock of sheep, guarding this flock of ocean-like sheep.

Among them, there are old people with gray hair, middle-aged women with black and red faces, and many children. They were just over the flock, running back and forth around the flock, and their little heads loomed in the face, even more cheerful than the flock.

The only barbarians Xiao Yunhe saw were the barbarian warriors who died all the way in his hands. At first glance, when he saw the very harmonious and peaceful barbarian herding horse in front of him, it was difficult for him to connect the scene in front of him with those barbarians who were cruel and inhuman.

Lusan rode around the flock and jumped off the horse.

Xiao Yunhe also jumped down, and Lu Sang had already walked over first and talked to several of the elders.

Xiao Yunhe couldn't understand what they were saying at all, so he could only look at the cheerful sheep around him.

After talking for a while, Lu Sang came over and said to Xiao Yunhe: "Yunhe, it's rare to meet such a hospitable barbarian, and we have fate! Let's go, take this group of friends and go to find our brothers!"

After speaking, Lu San winked at Xiao Yunhe.

"Okay!" Xiao Yunhe understood and responded, but he didn't know what kind of medicine Lu Sang was selling in the gourd.

"Let's go, then!" Lusan shouted, turning to the barbarian behind him.

Then, this group of barbarians drove this group of sheep, followed behind Xiao Yunhe, and advanced towards the place where Xie Datou and the others were hiding.

With this flock of sheep present, the pace of progress inevitably slows down. After all, it was only a sheep and not a horse, and although the sheep were happy to gnaw on the grass, they were not so enthusiastic when they were asked to move forward on four short legs.

Hurried all the way, listening to the roar of the barbarians, when the sun was past noon, this group of people finally came to the place.

Xiao Yunhe was rushed by Lu Sang to explain to Xie Datou and the others, although Xiao Yunhe himself didn't know what Lu Sang thought, but he felt that Lu Sang must have seen something, so he only told Xie Datou to act at the opportunity.

But in the end, no one knows which machine to do and which thing to do, except for Lusan himself.

The mighty Mianyang group rushed over, and Xie Datou, who had already put away his weapons, saw these barbarians, and also went up and chattered nonsense.

Xiao Yunhe was the only one left, standing alone, looking at this group of people who had just met, gathering together and talking very enthusiastically, in a harmonious atmosphere.

It seems that what Lusan said is true, and the entire Left Guard army seems to be able to speak barbarian language.

I'm a newcomer, and I really don't know anything.

The sun in the sky gradually set in the west, and the sheep with their heads down on the ground grazing on the grass gradually lost their initial joy as their bellies began to become round.

The sun was below the horizon, and the sky was getting darker.

But the barbarians, on the other hand, picked up piles of dry wood from the surroundings, drove the sheep together, and lit several bonfires in front of the flock.

It was getting late, but the group of barbarians became active.

A large group of people, young and old, began to sing around the bonfire, and although the syllables were chirping, Xiao Yunhe still didn't know what it meant.

A few sheep were slaughtered, and several barbarian women set up wood and roasted on the bonfire, and it took a while for the whole sheep to be cooked, but the aroma of roast mutton was permeated for a long, long time from the beginning.

The shepherds took out their own wine bags, and Lusan asked the soldiers to take out their wine bags, and a group of people gathered together to drink and eat large pieces of meat, and had a hearty and happy time.

This point once shocked Xiao Yunhe, because in the army of Daqi, there was an explicit order to prohibit alcohol.

After living in the back camp for so long, he had never seen a shadow of wine at all, except when the ruffian general Shan Zhen announced the celebration.

Even Shan Zhen, who has always been free of alcohol, only dares to get drunk on certain days. Usually he doesn't drink a drop of wine, Xiao Yunhe didn't even find a small bottle of wine in her barracks.

And now everyone actually took out a whole bag of wine, and the devil knows where they got it from and how they brought it out of the barracks.

Could this be a new form of differential treatment?

Xiao Yunhe thought helplessly.

Everyone was very happy, Shan Zhen, Xie Datou, and many, many people, all of them were drunk and red, and a few of them were still following the rhythm of the barbarians, and they were also singing and dancing around the bonfire, crazy enough.

Xiao Yunhe was the most sober among these people, because he couldn't communicate with those barbarians at all, and when they took the initiative to find him, he didn't know what the other party meant.

In the end, Xie Datou rushed over, and he poured Xiao Yunhe several sips of wine before he gave up.

Everyone was drunk, and even Lusan seemed to have forgotten what his mission was.

Under the anesthesia of alcohol, all the suspicions, speculations, tasks, and goals of Qiē were completely forgotten.
