Riding the Pheonix Chapter 709: Goddess
"Goddess? She is still a queen!" Ji Xiaowu sighed.
Mingwei ignored his nonsense and watched the team leader step forward to negotiate with the other party.
"Who are you? Which tribe are you from?"
The other party did not answer but asked: "Are you from the south? Are you from the Central Plains?"
The team leader showed a wary expression and did not answer.
After the battle two years ago, the conflict between the two races was deep.
The attitude of this barbarian was very strange. Instead, he showed a kind smile: "It seems so. From the clothes you wore and the words you spoke, you looked like people from the Central Plains. Were you looking for food just now? In winter. There is very little food to be found in the snow forest. We have some bamboo shoots here, do you want them?"
"..."
Ji Xiaowu quietly asked: "Is there poison in these bamboo shoots?"
Duofu replied: "Fifth Young Master, is it too troublesome to poison the bamboo shoots? Food in winter is very precious, and they will not waste it like this."
"Then why do you invite us to eat out of nowhere?"
The team leader also had the same confusion.
The other party said: "Dag has told me to be polite when meeting guests from Zhongyuan."
Yang Shu could not help but urge him forward: "Who is your Dag? Why are you so polite to the people from the Central Plains?"
"Dag is our Dag, the angel who saved the whole clan. She is the same as you. Dag said that if anyone from the Central Plains comes, take them back to see her. You guys eat quickly and follow Let’s go.”
"..."
Yang Shu came back to discuss: "Should we go with them? Listen to this, is this Dag also from the Central Plains?"
Mingwei thought thoughtfully: "Goddess, a Central Plains person...could she be..."
"Ah Wan?!" The two looked at each other and said at the same time.
"Isn't this impossible?" Yang Shu couldn't believe it. "They are all barbarians. How could they listen to the orders of a foreigner?"
"But didn't you hear it just now? He said that Dag is the same as us. Maybe there is something inside?"
"So what do you mean, let's go take a look? What if it's a trap?"
Mingwei shook his head: "This is not like the behavior of the barbarians. They want to fight and kill, and they will not be so roundabout."
"Then you think it's worth the risk?"
"Yeah."
Yang Shu thought for a moment and made up his mind: "Okay, let's go and have a look. Even if it's not Ah Wan, we might be able to get news about Ah Wan from the other party."
When will this blind search end? Moreover, this place is already very close to Kelan, maybe they will actually find it?
Finally, they sent two people to follow these barbarians to their camp to see who this Dag was.
Yang Shu was restless. Duofu made milk tea, but he didn't even take a few sips.
After waiting like this for half an hour, Ah Xuan rushed over and shouted: "Your Highness, Your Highness! It's Ah Wan, we found Ah Wan!"
……
The group of people walked into the barbarian camp and kept looking around with curiosity.
This is not a military camp, but migrant herders with their families.
There are women hanging clothes to dry, and children running and playing.
The Hu people who led the way were very enthusiastic and chatted with them: "The people from the Central Plains are so brave to come here from the North Sea! They are indeed Dag's relatives!"
Yang Shu was embarrassed by the praise.
Hundreds of barbarians died under his command, and he never thought that one day he would be praised like this by barbarians.
What on earth is Awan doing here? He was scratching his head like a cat, extremely curious!
Then he saw a figure running over from the other end like the wind. When he saw him, he yelled and rushed towards him.
"Your Highness!"
Yang Shu was almost knocked down by her. Hearing this familiar voice, tears almost fell: "Awan! Is it really you?!"
"It's me, it's me!" Ah Wan cried and laughed, holding on to him tightly, "I knew you would come to me!"
Seeing each other again after a long separation, both parties were very excited. After finally regaining their composure, Ah Wan said, "Are you freezing? It's too cold here. Come in with me to warm up."
Then take them to the end and enter a large tent.
Mingwei observed that when they entered the camp, the herdsmen showed no resistance. There were a few old herdsmen who looked unhappy. They muttered something about the Central Plains people and turned away.
The children were very curious and stood watching from a distance.
Awan's tent was the highest-standard among them. When other barbarians saw her, they all bowed to her.
This situation is completely different from what they expected!
Ah Wan was as excited as a deer. She welcomed them into the tent and started making milk tea and serving barbecue.
In the end, Yang Shu pressed her down: "Nothing is as important as you. Please tell me first, what is going on? Why did you..."
Ah Wan pouted and asked him: "Why did it take so long for Your Highness to come? It's already winter, and I've been waiting for almost a year. Have you forgotten me?"
Yang Shu replied with a guilty conscience: "I thought you were also captured and taken to Nanchu. After I found Mingwei, I found out that it was a barbarian who kidnapped you."
"Huh?" Ah Wan was surprised and turned to look at Mingwei, "You were still arrested? Then wasn't my sacrifice in vain?"
Mingwei spread his hands and said: "Unlucky, I bumped into that Miss Wen again. In short, after a long journey, we escaped from Nanchu, and we came to find you quickly."
Ah Wan immediately became happy: "So that's it, I forgive you!"
Yang Shu looked at her carefully and saw that she was not thin and her face was very good. She did not look like she was suffering at all, so she felt relieved.
He asked: "Did Su Tu arrest you? Where are the others?"
Seeing Ah Wan's behavior, he believed Hou Liang's news to a high degree of confidence. ~IndoMTL.com~ It seems that the woman brought back from outside in the news should be Ah Wan.
Looking at the way Ah Wan was being treated politely by everyone now, his mood, which had just relaxed a little, sank again.
Did Su Tu really succeed? If he gained the status in this way, he would definitely settle the score with Su Tu!
"He was the one who captured me," Ah Wan said. "He went to attack the King of Kelan City. If we count the time, we should have almost conquered it."
Her familiar tone made Yang Shu's heart sink even more.
But asking directly seems a little... dilemma
In the end, Ah Xuan couldn't stand it anymore and asked directly: "A Wan, has he done anything to you? Have you suffered a loss?"
Awan opened her eyes wide, and it took her a while to understand what the phrase "suffering a loss" meant, and she laughed: "This is very complicated to say, but I haven't suffered a loss yet. You see, I live in this camp by myself. Yes, no one else."
Yang Shu finally let out his breath.
So Su Tu did not marry by force. Well, you can be gentler then.
Just as he was thinking this, there was a commotion outside the camp. The herdsmen who stayed in the camp, including women and children, all shouted loudly, seeming to be cheering.
"King Khan is back! King Khan is back victorious!"
The clatter of horse hooves rushed into the camp accompanied by cheers.
"Xu——" Someone got off his horse in front of the tent, opened the tent curtain and rushed in, "Ah Wan, we have captured it, the royal city..."
When there were shouts outside, Yang Shu stood up and happened to meet the person face to face.
After a brief silence from both sides, one drew his sword and the other drew his sword.
"It's you!"
"You're back just in time!"...
