Chapter 482: Cutting the Wind (6)
Cheng Ruoying arrived at the military camp, only to find a group of people gathering and waiting.
What's going on? Are the Western Qiang people becoming restless again?
Four years ago, Huo Zhanfeng fought against 300,000 with only 100,000 men. They were obviously scared out of their wits, so why is he coming again now?
Do you think that the Daqi Dynasty is unstable and want to take advantage of the situation?
After finally seeing someone she knew, Cheng Ruoying asked and found out that it was not Xiqiang, but an independent village between Xiqiang and Daqi.
The Wa Village is located in a barren mountain area. The living habits of the Wa people are completely different from those of the Han people. They live in caves like primitive people.
The entire tribe consists of only a few thousand people.
Because they were too insignificant, Daqi and Xiqiang never paid any attention to them, and they were considered to be peaceful.
Why is he provoking Daqi? Isn't that courting death?
Cheng Ruoying didn't understand, but she breathed a sigh of relief.
There is no threat to Wa Village.
"Miss Cheng, do you want to go with us to take a look?" the young general asked.
"Can I go?"
"Just put on your armor and don't let the prince find out."
Although Cheng Ruoying knew that this was not good, very bad, if it was discovered it might even implicate the young general.
But she couldn't help but follow.
When we got outside the mountain, we found that the army was stationed outside and had not entered the mountain at all.
"Brother Lei, the prince has gone into the mountains and asked us to stay outside and be careful of the Western Qiang."
The young general asked, "Did the prince go in alone?"
"Yes, the leader of Wa Village led his people away from the village and fled into the mountains. The prince was afraid of scaring them, so he went in alone to persuade them to come back."
"Then we can't let His Majesty take the risk alone. I'll take a few more people in to take a look."
The young general's name was Lei Feng, and he told Cheng Ruoying about it on the way.
It turned out that Liu Cheng wanted to take credit in front of the new emperor and create the illusion that the barbarians were invading during the chaos.
A month ago, he led a team to attack Wa Village and killed almost half of the people.
Even if the remaining people from Wa Village fled to the mountains, they would still be pursued relentlessly. Liu Cheng would definitely kill them all and leave no one alive.
It's totally inhumane and cruel!
This matter had just been reported to Huo Zhanfeng by a brother in the military camp, and before he could deal with it, the leader of Wa Pu Village entered the military camp and tried to assassinate the commander.
So, Huo Zhanfeng came over.
Cheng Ruoying followed Lei Feng into the mountains. After walking for a whole day, they finally encountered a group of barbarians in strange clothes walking out of the mountains.
Unexpectedly, the leader of Wa Village was a woman!
Moreover, he had bare arms and legs, his face was painted in various colors, he was only covered with a little animal skin, and his body was covered with a bunch of animal teeth. He was wheat-colored, strong and wild.
The same is true for other men and women.
They are really barbarians.
Lei Feng had never seen people from Wa Village before, and his eyes widened when he saw them.
Huo Zhanfeng was wearing a silver-white flying wing armor and a red cherry silver helmet, looking noble and extraordinary.
The female village chief kept trying to get close to him, but he always kept her away with the knife in his hand.
She was mumbling something that no one could understand.
But Huo Zhanfeng seemed to understand, and his voice was low and powerful, as if he was refusing.
"This female barbarian is so shameless!" Lei Feng cursed softly.
"Who are you calling shameless?" The female village chief looked at him fiercely like a leopard.
Wow, she can actually speak Chinese! ?
"I'm talking to you! Our prince has a princess, why are you sticking to him with those two balls?" Lei Feng said bluntly.
He also reached out and pushed Cheng Ruoying beside him to Huo Zhanfeng.
A pair of frightened beautiful eyes met deep and resolute eyes.
Cheng Ruoying was a little confused.
Didn’t you tell her to be careful and not let Huo Zhanfeng find out?
This fucking thing is delivered right to me!
"You..." Huo Zhanfeng gave her a hand, his hand still on Cheng Ruoying's arm.
When I look at it, why is it her again?
"I, that..."
"Your Highness, the princess was worried and followed me here secretly. I had no choice." Lei Feng remained calm and winked at Huo Zhanfeng.
"So you really have a woman." The female village chief was very disappointed.
"Chief, you'd better pick a man from our village. There are more than one Han woman among them, and this must be just one of them!" The villagers muttered.
The female village chief was even less in the mood.
The people in Wa Village live in pairs and never have affairs.
It’s a pity that this man is Han Chinese.
A woman doesn’t care about a man no matter how good he looks!
Cheng Ruoying's heart was beating very fast.
Huo Zhanfeng did not refute!
Even if she was pretending to avoid trouble, she was extremely happy to be called the princess.
"Prince, Princess, let's go out quickly!" Lei Feng winked at Cheng Ruoying again.
Cheng Ruoying didn't know where she got the courage from, but she reached out and held Huo Zhanfeng's hand.
The large calloused hands only moved slightly but did not struggle free.
Lei Feng smiled slyly.
Let’s have a competition. Whoever can bring Miss Cheng and the prince together will win fifty taels!
It looks like he's going to win.
It seemed as if God was cheering him on, and a huge landslide suddenly struck.
Rocks are flying everywhere and the road ahead is blocked!
If you want to get there, you have to take a detour and you can't get out of the mountain at night.
Cheng Ruoying and Huo Zhanfeng have to pretend to be a couple for one more night.
There was a little girl who was so excited that she was about to cry.
"Miss Cheng, the opportunity has come again. You must capture the prince. My wife, Ben, depends on you." Lei Feng quietly approached Cheng Ruoying.
"Don't worry, if I succeed, I will definitely give you a lot of money."
They both grinned.
A stone hit Lei Feng on the head.
"Hey, boy, do you have a woman?" The female village chief squinted at Lei Feng.
Lei Feng shuddered: "Yes, there are ten!"
The female village chief seemed very angry and cursed something.
Night falls.
While there was still light, Huo Zhanfeng casually knocked down a few birds from the tree with stones.
After bleeding and plucking the hair, they cleaned up the meat briefly, built a fire and started roasting it.
Cheng Ruoying was reluctant to waste their time together, so she immediately ran over to help.
"You take a rest, I'll do it." Huo Zhanfeng really didn't know how to say this to the girl. Seeing that she was still busy, he didn't know what to say.
Cheng Ruoying picked up some more firewood.
I secretly glanced at Huo Zhanfeng and saw that he had taken off his helmet and was sitting on a rock, his left elbow resting on his knee, his right hand flipping the grill, looking relaxed and unrestrained.
The firelight reflected on the silver-white armor, his high nose bridge, and his half-closed eyes.
Like the towering mountains in the distance, it has a sense of heaviness and fortitude.
It seems that with him here, the wind and rain dare not invade, and the thunder dare not rage.
Cheng Ruoying was fascinated by what she saw.
Until the man looked up.
Cheng Ruoying hastily withdrew her gaze.
The chirping of birds from the villagers came into my ears again.
She seemed to have finally found a topic.
"Why would the prince say what they said?"
"There's an animal trainer in the palace. He's from Wa Village. We talked about it before and learned a little bit."
"Ah, I thought the people of Wa Village had always lived in the mountains and had never gone out." Cheng Ruoying was surprised.
"You're right. That animal trainer was an accident."
Feng Jue's mother was a Han Chinese who was exiled to Xichuan. In order to protect the baby in her belly, she escaped from the mine and was rescued by the people of Wa Village.
Feng Jue grew up in the village, and later his mother asked him to return to Daqi before her death.
Feng Jue entered the palace and worked as an animal trainer. He used wild beasts to bite to death the eunuch who had murdered their family.
Huo Zhanfeng was telling a story, and before he knew it, he had been talking for a long time.
Cheng Ruoying listened very carefully.
The female village chief was also listening not far away, her eyes filled with reminiscence.
