Xie Tong looked at this old man, obviously he was the patriarch of the Khitan clan, although this person was very old, but he had a straight body, sharp eyes, and walked with a tigerish style, and he knew at a glance that he was a person full of wisdom.

This person came out of the Khitan army, accompanied by everyone, came to Xie Tong and the others, and said in pure and fluent Chinese, "I am the patriarch Yeluqi, who are you? Why did you trespass on my Khitan territory?" His tone was full of dissatisfaction, and he snatched all the glory like a preemptive voice.

Xie Tong was very unhappy, and this attitude had the feeling of interrogating a prisoner. But thinking of the purpose of this trip and Shi Jianing's warning, he hurriedly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "I am the general of the Tang Army, and I am ordered to go north today, passing by Ezina City, and I have come to pay a visit to the patriarch!"

Yeluqi suddenly raised his brows, and said unhappily, "I and your Tang army are not relatives, they seem to be enemies and not friends, why did the laborers come here with a large army, why is this!"

An extremely unfriendly voice sounded from behind the old man, "Since you came to see our patriarch, where are the gifts, could it be that these Tang Jun are gifts? Ha, we don't want it, it's useless to keep a bunch of waste, it's better to keep it for yourself!" The speaker was a tall Khitan guy, no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, and his eyes were full of disdain when he looked at Xie Tong.

As soon as these words came out, all the Khitans burst out laughing.

The Tang army was furious, shouting and scolding one after another, Xie Tong signaled the soldiers not to make noise, he waved his hand, and pushed up a carriage of gifts.

The Khitan people suddenly exclaimed, this carriage of good things, many people have never heard of it, never seen it.

Yeluqi was also very surprised, but as the patriarch of a clan, how could he have the appearance of a patriarch, the displeasure on his face eased a lot, and he smiled and said, "Since this is the case, the old man will laugh and accept, please inside."

Xie Tong didn't expect that the people of the grassland would be so straightforward, and they were not ambiguous at all in accepting gifts, and their attitude took a big turn.

The Khitan guy who had just spoken out was disrespectful, stopped Xie Tong's guards, and said, "Our patriarch is not seen by everyone, if you are afraid, go back obediently!"

The Khitans laughed again.

Xie Tong's heart swelled with a soaring pride, just an Eqina City, he didn't take it in his eyes.

He turned to Shi Jianing and said, "Please wait outside for a while, the city is not very safe."

Shi Jianing thought that Xie Tong would grovel to the Khitans, afraid that she would be embarrassed to see it, so she nodded and returned with a smile.

Xie Tong asked his subordinates to bring Lai Kezhong, and he directly carried Lao Lai on his back and strode into Ezina City.

This hand made the Khitan people unbelievable, when did the Han people become so brave.

Ezina City is actually the scale of a county town, Xie Tong didn't have time to take care of the scenery of this town, and followed the Khitan people to the patriarch's low house.

Xie Tong put Lao Lai on the chair and sat down on the side. Along with them entered the room was the young man and another old man.

Yeluqi was quite generous, and ordered the people to serve milk tea.

Yeluqi stared at Xie Tong for a long time and asked, "I don't know what the general is called!"

Xie Tong thought for a moment and said, "I'm Xie Tong!"

As soon as the words fell, Yeluqi's body trembled slightly, and said, "Is it General Xie who exterminated the Yellow Nest?"

Xie Tong nodded and said, "It's me!"

The Khitan young man snorted coldly, "It turns out that you are the Xie Tong, I can't find you when I look for you!, I actually dare to send it to the door!" After that, he clenched his fists and blasted directly at Xie Tong!

"Aqua stop," Jerry exclaimed, but still a step too late.

Xie Tong was extremely dissatisfied with this young man, so he insulted him just now, and now he has put on such a set, which has touched his bottom line.

Xie Tong quietly raised his true qi, and the moment the iron fist approached, he raised his right hand like lightning and slapped it on Akui's iron fist with one palm.

The fists and palms intersected, Xie Tong sat on the chair and did not move, while Akui flew out upside down,

He looked at Xie Tong in disbelief and didn't say a word.

Xie Tong showed displeasure on his face and said, "Patriarch Yelu, what does this mean!"

Yeluqi smiled and said, "General Xie is famous in the Central Plains, and the warriors of the grassland do not regard the general as an imaginary opponent, and this shot is also to test the general's strength!"

Seeing that he said it so bluntly, Xie Tong was embarrassed to pursue it again, so he had to laugh it off.

Yeluqi smiled and said, "The general is here to Ezina City, it's not just as simple as giving gifts!

Xie Tong smiled and said, "Since the patriarch is so open-minded, Xie Mou will say it bluntly! Two days ago, I went to Caojing to get water, and was ambushed by the Khitan clan, and suffered heavy losses, I am here to let the patriarch give me an explanation, the two countries have always been harmonious in recent years, is the patriarch trying to provoke the dispute between the Khitan clan and my Datang?" His words were loud and tough.

Akui pursed his lips, he couldn't hit Xie Tong with a blow, he was still quite unconvinced, and interjected, "The weak Tang Army is not worth our clan's shot, if it is replaced by me, I guarantee that there will not be a living mouth."

Xie Tong stood up from the chair and said angrily, "So, this brother has admitted it."

Akui's chest straightened, and said, "What's the matter, Xie Tong, don't think that if you defeat Huangchao, you will go to the grassland, this is not a place for you to play prestige, just rely on your 10,000 cavalry, Lao Tzu can solve it all in the time of a stick of incense."

Yeluqi said angrily, "Aque, sit down!"

Aqua sat down angrily.

Yeluqi continued, "General Xie, the sneak attack is the behavior of Xue Yantuo's horse thieves, and the warriors of our clan don't bother to do such despicable things, if they want to fight, they will fight with real swords and guns. "His attitude was very tough, and he had no intention of backing down.

Xie Tong said, "Patriarch Yelu, don't push everything on the horse thief, our army just fought with the horse thief some time ago, let me ask Xue Yantuo that the horse thief is already my enemy, how can he not pretend to be a Khitan to retaliate! He paused and continued, "Xie Mou has always regarded the Khitan tribe as a warrior, but he didn't expect that he was a rat who dared to be a rat, which really disappointed Xie. ”

Akui said angrily, "Xie Tong, you are so bold, you dare to come here to play prestige, how about we have the ability to have a duel!"

Xie Tong glanced at Ah Kui contemptuously, and said ruthlessly, "Okay! The two armies will face off for a while, and Xie Tong will personally greet his brother." ”

The two sides immediately became tense, and there was no room for relaxation in this matter.

Xie Tong saw that the other party didn't mean to explain, so he walked out without saying a word.

The old man, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Since General Xie believes that it was my Khitan clan who attacked your army, dare to ask if there is any evidence!"

Xie Tong stopped, took out the clothes brought back by the nightingale from his arms, threw them on the table, and said, "See for yourself! This is what our army found from the battlefield, isn't it the Khitan." Also, here are the wounded we rescued from the battlefield, all of whom were injured by the knives of the Khitan clan, is there any pretense? ”

The three of them rushed straight to Lao Lai's side to check his injuries.

When Yeluqi saw Lao Lai's face clearly, he cried out in surprise and said, "Isn't this General Lai Kezhonglai?

Xie Tong said, "Lao Lai is my good brother, that is, he was ambushed in Caojing and attacked by you people who are not the same, this revenge, I Xie will personally return it."

Surprisingly, the three of them did not show dissatisfaction with Xie Tong's evil words, but all gathered around Lao Lai.

Ah Kui put away his hostility towards Xie Tong and asked, "Who is so ruthless to do this to Brother Lai!"

Xie Tong said, "Don't be hypocritical here, now the evidence is conclusive, Team Leader Yelu, what else do you have to say!"

Yeluqi was not strong, but smiled and said, "General Xie, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here, General Lai is a friend of my Khitan clan, my clan will never do anything to my friends, everyone knows this matter, the old man is willing to swear to the god of the grassland, this matter is by no means what we say, the old man suspects, someone is trying to blame us."

Xie Tong stared at him intently, Yeluqi's sincerity was by no means like it was pretended, could it be that he really blamed them, could it really be as he said, someone deliberately disguised himself as a Khitan and provoked a dispute between the two countries, if this was the case, it would be terrible!

Seeing Xie Tong's hesitation, the silent old man continued, "What is the truth, when General Lai wakes up, he will know that he trusts the general to return our clan's innocence!"

Akui also interjected, "Maybe General Xie doesn't believe it, in the entire grassland, there are very few people who can defeat Brother Lai, and our clan doesn't have such a master." ”

Xie Tong was convinced of his words, if the Khitans wanted to deal with him, they could do it at this moment, without waiting for Lao Lai to wake up, he definitely had reason to believe these people in front of him.

Xie Tong put away his hostility and said, "The words of the predecessors are not unreasonable, Xie Tong may have really fallen for the enemy's tricks." However, who came up with such a shady plan to hurt the old man again!"

Yeluqi sighed and said, "The news of General Xie's envoy to Murwei has spread all over the Saiwai, and all ethnic groups will not allow the marriage to happen, except for my Khitan clan, after all, our clan is adjacent to the Tang Dynasty, and the commerce and trade between the two countries are mutually beneficial, our clan is extremely supportive of this matter, and the other opposing ethnic groups have the motivation to disturb this matter, it is difficult to guess who did it." But the person who can defeat General Lai, this is easy to guess, there are only a handful of masters on the grassland, in addition to the ghost venerable who is the first person, there are still five people, and the martial arts cultivation has reached the peak of perfection. ”

Xie Tong was finally convinced at this moment,

He asked, "What other five?"

Akui did not wait for the patriarch to return to Da, he said like a few family treasures, "The first person is the national teacher Chongli of the ******, the second person is Shi Jingjiao, the apprentice of the ghost honor, the third person is Xue Yantuo, the horse thief Murong Longcheng, and the fourth person is a lone chivalrous man Yi Wudaunt, but this person has lived in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and the fifth person is Jin Shan, the master of the Heishui Jing clan, and the martial arts of these five people are comparable."

Xie Tong smiled, Lao Yi can actually join this list, which is very interesting.

Aqua continued, "The most mysterious is Jin Shan, a woman who became famous at a young age and has unique martial arts, but in recent years she has suddenly disappeared and disappeared."

Xie Tong was surprised: "It's actually a woman!"

Yeluqi said, "General Xie should not underestimate her, this girl became famous at the age of ten, and she won the praise of ****** Khan, she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, compared to the women of the Southern Dynasty, she is not too much."

Xie Tong was silent, but he really wanted to see this mysterious female master.

Yeluqi continued, "There is another person is Murong Longcheng, this person is also young and famous, it is rumored that a master in the extreme north is a teacher, martial arts are good, until the age of sixteen or seventeen, returned to Mobei, once led more than a thousand horse thieves to defeat the wolf army of ******, famous, once regarded as the hope of the revival of the Xue Yantuo clan, but since a few years ago began to disappear, including his clan, no one knows where they are hiding, but every time they appear, it causes a sensational event. ”

Xie Tong really didn't have any interest in listening, the top priority was to solve the problem at hand, not to listen to the deeds of these Mobei heroes, he hurriedly said, "Patriarch Yelu, since this is a misunderstanding, I have offended a lot, and I ask the patriarch and all the warriors to forgive me, but I have a reluctant request, and I also ask the patriarch to agree." ”

Yeluqi laughed and said, "But it's okay to say!"

Xie Tong hurriedly told the Tang army about its plight and asked for help from the Khitan clan.

After hearing this, Yeluqi said, "General Lai's brother is my friend of the Khitan tribe, such a trivial matter, there is no need to work and respect, I will go to welcome the arrival of King Wu." ”

Xie Tong smiled, "Thank you!"

Li Zheng led the army to follow Xie Tong's army, and soon arrived at Ezina City, but the army was all stationed outside the city, and when he inquired, he learned that Xie Tong took the unconscious old man and broke into the Khitan lair alone, such courage and courage, he asked himself if he could do it.

But an hour passed, and there was no news of the city.

Li Zheng couldn't sit still, he had been wandering around the city for a long time, drinking two pots of tea, and was in a hurry.

The nightingale came up to King Wu and said, "Lord Wang, General Xie has been in for almost two hours, I'm afraid that something unexpected has happened, what should we do?"

Li Zheng was annoyed, this time he attacked Mobei, the best young generals in the Tang Dynasty, all of them were brought by him, but one was captured, one was injured, and one did not know the situation now.

Hong Shan and the others also anxiously gathered around King Wu, looking forward to it.

Another hour passed, and Nightingale said, "Lord Wang, please give me soldiers and horses all the way, Nightingale is willing to personally lead the troops to attack and rescue General Xie." ”

All the generals shouted loudly, "Please give an order from the prince, and we will set foot on Ezena City." Rescue General Xie".

Hong Shan bit her lip, she was anxious, Ai Lang had all the news at the moment, I don't know what happened, if she was plotted by the Khitans, she would definitely avenge Ai Lang.

Li Zheng looked at the appearance of the soldiers united, and finally made up his mind, and said, "Beat the drums, cheer, this king wants to set foot on the city of Ezina."

"Flatten the city of Ezena!" shouted the soldiers.

Li Zheng pulled out his sword and was about to give the order to attack, when he saw Xie Tong walking out of Ezina City unharmed surrounded by a group of Khitans, which surprised him and hurriedly put the sword into the sheath. (To be continued.) )
