When Apo and Atai woke up, they found that they were crowded with people, and their voices were louder and louder. Liu Yu held the bowl and shouted loudly in the crowd, and in his right hand he still grabbed a leg of mutton that was gnawed to the point of only a bone stick. He saw the two of them who woke up at a glance, and said, "Abao, Atai, are you still drinking?"

The feast lasted until the next morning, when the drunken soldiers lay down in their tents. Liu Yu picked up a bowl of wine, rinsed his mouth, and then climbed on the couch contentedly, and after a while, the sound of snoring followed.

In the evening, he awoke from his deep sleep, rubbed his eyes, and found many soldiers standing in front of the bed. When someone saw him wake up, he shouted happily: "Are you still drinking?" Liu Yu turned up neatly and said, "Drink!" These Khitan soldiers loved wine very much, and when they heard that there was wine to drink, they immediately smiled and burst into laughter.

The drinking lasted for three days, and no one bothered them. After the Khitan soldiers saw Liu Yu before, there was only awe in their eyes, but now they are much closer to him. Liu Yu sincerely felt, "There are only two kinds of loyalty in this world that can win the loyalty of the Khitans: become a hero, or drink with them!"

However, there are not many opportunities to become heroes, but there are opportunities to drink every day.

Liu Yu's wine was drunk day by day, and at the same time, Yao Yuantai's face was gloomy day by day. On the fourth day, there was a report from the Malays that the army of Jerusheru had advanced more than ten miles, and was now only seven or eight miles away from his own camp. After hearing this, Yao Yuantai fidgeted and circled the main tent all day, and in addition to that, he climbed the watchtower himself and looked into the distance.

On the evening of the fifth day, he stood on the watchtower, and finally saw a man in red galloping on a horse from a distance, so he hurriedly went downstairs and went out of the camp to meet him.

Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but smile when she saw Yao Yuantai standing outside the camp gate waiting for her early. She turned over and dismounted, and Yao Yuantai personally led the horse for her, and said, "Mrs. Xiao, what news have you brought?"

Mrs. Xiao said, "Let's go into the tent!" She rushed into the main tent, grabbed the teapot and poured the tea, until she drank four bowls of tea, she spoke, and said, "In order to come to see you, I first went north through a desert, then west through a swamp, and then south for most of the day, and finally came here." ”

Yao Yuan Tai said: "Our two armies are only seven or eight miles apart, why do you have to go around such a big circle?" Mrs. Xiao said: "In order to avoid suspicion! The reason I told Yelu Shilu was that I missed my parents who were grazing under the Buerhan Mountain in the north, and I planned to go back to see them. ”

Yao Yuan Tai said: "But you don't usually need these reasons. Mrs. Xiao said: "This time is different, the Tubo prince Zongbu is dead, I don't want to be suspicious!" Yao Yuantai looked shocked and said, "Who can kill him?" Mrs. Xiao said: "I don't know." She took a sip of tea, and continued: "Just five days ago in the morning, before the soldiers got up, they heard Princess Liu Ge screaming loudly in her tent, and then a head threw her out of the bed. ”

Yao Yingtai said: "This head is Prince Zongbu, how did his head run into Brother Liu's bed?" Mrs. Xiao smiled: "I don't know this, but Prince Zongbu has always been an admirer of Princess Brother Liu, and this matter is well known." Yao Yantai said: "Brother Liu has always had many admirers, and she has always enjoyed this feeling of being favored, and she can't kill them." ”

Mrs. Xiao said: "It's hard to say. Prince Zongbu is not an ordinary person, and Princess Liu Ge is not a simple person. Together, these two people only make things more complicated. Haruka Tai couldn't sit still any longer, he got up from the couch and asked, "How complicated will things be?"

Madame Xiao put down the tea bowl and said, "That's why I came to you! I heard that Yelu Shilu had sent his own brother to bring the body of Prince Zongbu to explain to the old king of Tubo. Yao Yuan Tai said: "I'm afraid this kind of thing is not easy to explain clearly." Mrs. Xiao smiled and said, "The so-called explanation is just a suitable excuse to shift the blame onto others." ”

Yao Yuan Tai said: "This person will naturally be me." Mrs. Xiao said, "Yes! Yelu Shilu has already asked people to bring Prince Zongbu's broken knife and Liu Yu's flying halberd. Yao Yuan Tai said: "Hehe, when the time comes, the people of Yelu Shilu will say that after seeing the old king of Tubo, Prince Zongbu had a dispute with Liu Yu on the battlefield and was finally killed by him. ”

Mrs. Xiao said: "Yes, it is thousands of miles away from the grassland to Tibet, and even if the truth is passed on, it will become a lie. Liu Yu is your apprentice, you naturally can't escape the involvement, and the king of Tubo will definitely seek revenge on you. Yao Yuan Tai said: "Then Yelu Shilu has now pulled out the camp and advanced for more than ten miles, what does this mean?"

Lady Xiao said, "Jerushlu would never put his jewels in the same box, nor would he let his beauties live in the same tent, because he would never simply believe in one thing or one person. He can kill you with the sword of the king of Tibet on one side, and his own sword on the other side will be raised high. ”

While the two were talking, a soldier rushed into the tent with blood and said, "Oh no! Third Prince, General Atun was killed by Yelu Shilu's men!" Mrs. Xiao said, "You see, Yelu Shilu's knife has been cut down." Yao Yantai's eyes were extremely complicated, and he hurriedly asked the soldier, "I sent General Atun out on patrol today, where was he killed?"

The soldier replied, "It's outside the tent door." The soldier replied, "Then there is no one to save him?" and the soldier replied, "There is a man on the other side, and the man said that he would fight a duel with General Atun alone." General Atun agreed, and promised that no one else would participate. As a result, within a few rounds, the man killed General Atun with a single punch. ”

Yao Yantai hurriedly asked, "Who is that person?" The soldier said, "That person said that he was a martial arts teacher who was greater than Yelu Xiaohua, the son of Yue, but he didn't say his name. After hearing this, Yao Yuantai's face changed abruptly, and he said, "Isn't Yelu coming back?" Mrs. Xiao said: "I haven't seen this person for a long time, and I've never heard that Yelu Xiaohua has a martial arts teacher." ”

Yao Yuan Tai said: "Yelu Xuan has been away from the grassland for more than ten years, I heard that he has traveled all over the world and has been seeking the ultimate way of Khitan scattering, why did he suddenly come back at this time?" Mrs. Xiao sighed and said: "Who knows, Yelu Shilu asked him to challenge you as Yelu Xiaohua's martial arts teacher, and there must be a deep meaning in it." ”

Yao Yuan Tai said: "Yes, Yelu Xuan's reputation has not been obvious among the eight departments, and I, as the commander of the first army, if I face off against one of his small martial arts teachers, I will inevitably lose face and make the people laugh." Mrs. Xiao said: "In my opinion, Yelu Shilu doesn't want you to make a move. Yao Yuan Tai said: "Then what does he want?"

Mrs. Xiao said: "In my opinion, he wants Liu Yu to make a move." If Liu Yu wins, it will only be a victory over a martial arts teacher. If Liu Yu loses, it will be even more amazing, the dignified grassland eagle will actually lose under the hands of a little-known martial arts teacher, which can be said to have lost all his prestige.
