As Gao Qiu and Hu Bugui listened, their hearts gradually grew heavy. Mount Helan was the place that the five thousand soldiers yearned for, it was their spiritual sustenance! Once Mount Helan was breached, the five thousand people deep in the grasslands would be like floating duckweed, with nothing to rely on!
Old Gao murmured, "Miss Xu is intelligent, she will definitely receive your news. Perhaps she is now trying to get in touch with us, please don't worry Brother Lin!"
The bonfire crackled and the faint light illuminated the faces of the three. Lin Wanrong shook his head, "What's there to worry about? From the moment I stepped into the prairie, I didn't have to consider life and death. To be able to travel with my two brothers and fight a great battle in this vast prairie, even if I die, I'll still be a hero with an indomitable spirit. What's there to regret? "
"Well said!" Hu Bugui clapped his hands and laughed, "I advise you not to be envious of the golden coat, a man should wear the Wugou! A man of five feet, standing tall in the world, his feet can step on the ground, his head can hold up the sky, driving out the barbarians, protecting his homeland, this is the greatness of life, and the heroism of death, what is there to be afraid of?! "
Gao Qiu looked Hu Bugui up and down, grinning, "Old Hu, in the days I've known you, this is the most manly speech I've ever heard! Don't worry, whether it's a mountain of swords, a sea of fire, or a rain of arrows, if I, Old Gao, frown, I will squat down to pee, and walk with my head down! "
The three looked at each other, and could not help but burst into laughter. Six big hands stretched out, clasping tightly together, the light of the fire illuminating their dark, determined faces …
Three consecutive victories, five thousand people deep into the grasslands, launched a surprise attack on Bayanhaote, and annihilated Har Helin and Ejin Na's three thousand cavalry. In just a few days, they had killed more than ten thousand enemies, all of whom were Turkic men. This could not only be said to be a great victory, but it was also a huge psychological blow to the barbarians. At this time, no one among the Turks would dare to underestimate this China suicide squad that had penetrated deep into the grasslands.
The army rested on the spot for half a day, replenishing supplies, and waiting for the response of the barbarians. Of course, in the depths of Lin Wanrong's heart, there was an almost naive desire. He hoped that Xu Zhiqing would find a way to contact him after hearing the news. At the very least, before entering Yiwu and embarking on the journey of life and death, he needed to know what was going on in Mount Helan. This was not only his personal wish, but also the common wish of the 5,000 soldiers.
The Ha Er Helin Tribe and the Ejina Tribe became anxious and uneasy after losing the news of the three thousand cavalrymen. According to the reports from the scouts at the frontlines, there were signs of troops moving within the two tribes. However, after the Hu had suffered a loss, they had become much more cautious and did not dare to rashly send out small groups of cavalry. The situation gradually became a stalemate.
If they couldn't take down Ejinar, they wouldn't be able to enter Yiwu. Attacking the king of the barbarians, Tinkezil, would be like building a castle in the air. Were the five thousand brothers going to roam the grasslands for the rest of their lives? In this situation, Hu Bugui and Gao Qiu gradually became more and more anxious. On the other hand, Lin Wanrong still had an indifferent attitude. He laughed and joked with the others without the slightest nervousness, as if he really wanted to take root in the grasslands and be a bandit for the rest of his life. This attitude puzzled Old Gao and Gao Qiu, but the soldiers were extremely happy and fought to talk to him. The atmosphere along the way was very relaxed. Hu Bugui and Gao Qiu sighed, not knowing what Lin Wanrong was thinking.
"Sweetie, your smile is so sweet, like a flower blooming in the spring breeze. Ah, it's blooming in the spring breeze …" The bandit laid on the shaft of the carriage with his hands behind his head. There was an unknown blade of grass in his mouth. He swayed left and right and hummed a tune sweetly.
The thin curtain of the carriage gently swayed, revealing Yu Jia's delicate little face. She sat cross-legged, only a few feet away from Lin Wanrong, her eyes slightly closed, not saying a word. Since last night's' acting ', she hadn't spoken to Lin Wanrong again, and it was even to the extent that she hadn't looked him in the eye. Even when she was treating Li Wuling earlier, she was silent like iron and didn't say a single word. These two people sat in the same carriage, one humming a little tune, the other sitting quietly, their movements complemented each other, which was quite rare.
"Shoot, shoot quickly, shoot quickly — —" An anxious and enthusiastic clamor came over, followed by the hurried sound of hooves. Lin Wanrong looked up, only to see Hu Bugui and Gao Qiu on horseback with bows and arrows in their hands, excitedly chasing a small white figure running on the grassland in front of them. It seemed that they were competing in archery, and the soldiers around them were whistling and cheering for them.
"Huh, such a small white horse?!" Lin Wanrong stared for a long time, then said in surprise.
Yu Jia slowly opened her eyes, sweeping a few glances into the distance. Seeing the bandit pretending to understand, she finally couldn't bear it anymore, "If you don't speak, no one will notice your ignorance — — have you ever seen such a small horse?! That is clearly a Jade Rabbit, idiot who is pointing at a rabbit as a horse!!! "
Lin Wanrong made a long 'oh' sound, then said with a smile, "So it is a little white rabbit, I am ashamed, I am ashamed, I haven't caught a rabbit for a long time, so I made a mistake, thank you Miss Yu Jia for pointing it out!"
Looking at the bandit's laughing expression, the Turkic girl felt like she had been tricked. This person is full of tricks, deliberately tricking me to talk, why didn't I see it?!
"You don't need to thank me," Crescent Moon helplessly and helplessly rolled her eyes at him, "I just hope that when you sing out of tune songs in the future, stay a little further away from me, don't let me hear it, then the god of the grassland will bless Yu Jia."
She shook her head in annoyance, lightly glancing at him a few times, her eyes calm, her face with a faint smile.
"Miss Yu Jia is praising me again," Lin Wanrong said shamelessly, "Actually, I was preparing to sing a song in the Turkic language, but who knew that at the last moment, I would forget these few phrases, I am really sorry!"
Speaking of learning the Turkic language, Yu Jia remembered what happened last night, lightly gritting her teeth, she said, "Aren't you not interested in Turkic language and Turkic women? Why are you singing Turkic songs again?! "
"Sigh, I am indeed not interested in Turkic women, but I can't stop Turkic women from becoming interested in me!" Lin Wanrong was full of distress, "I can't help it, this is what charm is like! Oh right, Miss Yu Jia, when you Turkic women express their feelings to the person they love, what do you usually say?! "
"Why are you asking this?! You are not allowed to harm my Turkic women! "The girl looked at him warily, her expression solemn.
Lin Wanrong laughed it off, "Miss Yu Jia's words are too serious, it is hard to say who is harming who! In truth, I just wanted to make an academic discussion with you. I've heard that the most sincere way for a Turkic woman to express her feelings is to give an object that is linked to her life to her lover, so as to express her undying loyalty to him. Isn't that so?! "
The bandit's eyes flashed as he stared at Yu Jia! Yue Ya 'er snorted angrily. She raised her beautiful face proudly, "So what if it is?! I am not afraid to let you know, we Turkic women will treasure a treasure that is more important than our lives from a young age. When we reach adulthood, we will give it to our beloved lover. Once it is given, regardless of whether he is rich or poor, old or weak, dead or alive, sick or disabled, we will have no regrets! The women of my tribe are unrestrained and passionate, love is love, hate is hate, unlike the noble young ladies of your China. They are bashful and coy, even though they are obviously flirting, they still have to pretend to be reserved. Pah, hypocrites! "
The Turkic girl lightly spat, her face full of disdain, clearly not having a good impression of the noble young ladies of China.
Lin Wanrong shook his head with a smile, "Miss Yu Jia is too absolute! Being candid has its cuteness, but shyness also has its beauty. As the saying goes, plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, everyone has their own specialties. Everyone has different appetites, so what they like is naturally different. How can you insist on everything?! You are not a man, so of course you cannot understand! "
Yue Ya 'er glanced at him and couldn't help but lightly bite her red lips, sneering, "What a sophistry man!"
"Just consider it my sophistry." Lin Wanrong nonchalantly waved his hand, smiling, "Since you Turkic women all have a treasure that is more important than their lives, I presume that Miss Yu Jia will not be an exception! I am very curious, with Miss Yu Jia's noble status, just what kind of treasure would you choose to treasure?! "
He lightly sighed, taking out a golden scimitar from his boots. The pure gold scabbard shone with a brilliant light, the sharp edge of the blade gleaming with a cold light. With a casual wave of his hand, several strands of hair were cut in two, silently falling to the ground.
Yu Jia was dazed, and then her expression changed. She struggled with her hands and feet, throwing herself at him, "Give it back to me, give it back to me, you wretched bandit!"
A faint layer of mist appeared in Yue Ya 'er's blue eyes. She stubbornly bit her red lips, like an enraged leopard, throwing herself at him. But her hands and feet were bound, so how could she exert any strength? After struggling a few times, she began to pant. Only when her entire body was in his embrace did she realize that something was wrong. She wanted to leave his embrace, but she didn't have any strength left.
"You, what are you doing?!" Weakly leaning on the bandit, the Turkic girl smelled his scent. Her heart beat fast, her face blushed, and she screamed in fright.
"I should be the one saying that." Lin Wanrong helped her up and looked at her, amused.
The two were facing each other, their cheeks very close. When their eyes met, it was as if they had returned to the scene of last night's play. Yu Jia's face reddened. She lowered her head and whispered, "You, give me back the golden scimitar, or else, I, I will not let you go!"
"Such a strong threat?!" Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Miss Yu Jia, please do not worry. This scimitar is more important than your life in your eyes, but in my eyes, it is just a pile of scrap metal. Even if you give it to me, I won't want it!"
"You wretched bandit, give it back, give it back!" Yu Jia's face reddened, and she shouted angrily, throwing herself at him.
Looking at her struggling body, sweat dripping from the tip of her nose, Lin Wanrong lightly waved his hand. "It is just scrap metal, useless to me. Do not worry, I will give it back to you. But Miss Yu Jia's impatience for the golden scimitar seems to have reminded me of something. "
"What — what is it?!" The struggling Turkic girl suddenly raised her head, her eyes flashing with unconcealable shock!
Lin Wanrong blew on the edge of the scimitar and said with a smile, "This golden scimitar is expensive and precious, and it is more important than your life. It is true that you gave it to your lover as a token of love. But if you see it as a simple token of love, then you are underestimating Miss Yu Jia too much! "
Crescent Moon looked at him, her light blue eyes flashing with a faint light that constantly changed. In the end, she suddenly stopped struggling and actually cracked a smile. Her beautiful face was like a hundred flowers blooming in the cold winter, extremely charming.
"A beautiful golden scimitar, what else do you think it means?!" Her voice was soft and soothing, like a jade compass. Her eyes were smiling as she looked at him. Her face was translucent like jade, and a few strands of hair fell from her forehead, giving her an air of nobility and majesty. A charming smile hung at the corner of her mouth, and her bright red lips were slightly opened, like a ripe cherry, tempting to commit a crime!
A moment ago, she was a young girl in love, but in an instant, she seemed to have become a mature and charming woman. This ability to change her face made even Lin Wanrong dumbfounded.
"This, this golden scimitar, perhaps it is the symbol of your identity." Looking at this charming Yu Jia who seemed to be able to play with men in the palm of her hand, Lin Wanrong felt that it was too much of a contrast to the little sister Crescent Moon from before. Hurriedly, she lowered her head.
"Really?!" Yu Jia smiled and looked at him with her watery eyes. Her bright red lips were tender and beautiful, "Old friend, how about we make a bet? If you can guess my identity, Yu Jia will give this scimitar to you! Remember … "She giggled, her eyes as gentle as water," I am giving it to you, not taking it from you … Are you willing?! "
"Oh, I suddenly remembered that I should practice my spear art. Excuse me, excuse me!" The bandit was sweating and suddenly stood up, but his head hit the roof of the carriage. With a light bang, the carriage shook.
Looking at his fleeing figure, Yu Jia's giggling spread far and clear, "Cowardly bandit, who is the bad actor? Do you understand now?!"
