Chapter 5 Deer Hunting (Nine Parts) Ashina Choyu’s cavalry stayed in Su Chuo tribe for two days, and the tribe’s carnival also lasted for two days. This mission from the Turkic royal court was so timely, it was almost like
It was like providing help in times of need. The most needed support from the Suchuan tribe was delivered. With the Ashina family as a big backer, Suchuoxil could justifiably propose to Zhishibada Aijin to take over the crown left by the ancestors of the Lin people. On the side, he was aggressive
The Khitans will also restrain their temper and give up their unreasonable demands for the sake of the marriage between the Suchu tribe and the Ashina family.
"It is the Immortal Heaven and the Holy Wolf that are protecting Su Chuobu!" All the shepherds said this. Until Ashina Choyu left, the excitement in people's hearts had not passed.
"The white swan doesn't want to soar into the blue sky on its own, but instead imitates the crow and follows the wolves to pick up broken bones to eat. Wan Qing has been teaching Xier for so long. Didn't she teach him to take a long-term view?" Master Coppersmith
She loves to go against others, banging on the chopping board and complaining to Li Xu.
"Patriarch, the patriarch may have his own decision!" Li Xu looked at the fire and answered absentmindedly.
The blue dancing in the furnace is gnawing at a large piece of star iron pottery. The star iron fished out of the Crescent Lake made a weapon for Li Xu, and there were still a lot left after little Asilan was born.
Immediately, Li Xu used the remaining materials to make two scimitars.
One for little Aslan to defend herself, and the other? Li Xu smiled foolishly, intoxicated by the dream of happiness.
"Idiot, do you think women from the Ashina family are so easy to marry?" The coppersmith stretched out his hand and put a blast on the disciple's forehead. With this disciple's current qualifications, it is best to find a deserted mountain to live in seclusion.
But God pushed him into a whirlpool, and he himself stepped into the center of the whirlpool without realizing any danger.
"Brother Queyu said that his marriage to Aslan will not involve the families of both parties!" Li Xu took out the red-hot iron with a pair of tongs, hammered it hard a few times, and wiped the sweat from his face.
answer
Ashina Queyu's affinity is unparalleled, and the enthusiasm and generosity shown in every gesture have won the favor of the entire Suchu tribe. Li Xu did not want to let unfounded suspicions ruin the mood of the entire tribe. Although he and the coppersmith master
Similarly, he was also vaguely aware that there might be a huge conspiracy behind this excessive enthusiasm. But what exactly the conspiracy was, he couldn't see clearly like seeing flowers in a fog.
"If Brother Xu were here, he would definitely be able to guess what kind of medicine was sold in Ashina Queyu's gourd. Unfortunately, Brother Xu is still by the Xinkai River, leading his troops to guard against the Khitan's sneak attack!" Li Xu shook his head and tried his best to clear his mind.
The chaotic thoughts were left behind. Creating weapons required concentration. He did not want any of the two scimitars to be born to be defective.
"You kid, you are still kind-hearted after all!" The coppersmith sighed, and stopped talking. What should come will eventually come. Wings that have not experienced wind and rain will never grow. Some truths can only be understood after suffering losses.
Looking at Li Xu who was swinging the sledgehammer so hard that the wind was blowing, he seemed to see himself again more than 20 years ago.
The big hammer and the small hammer made noisy noises, and a pastoral song was played. Time was gradually forgotten. The first black and blue knife blank with soft and smooth lines gradually took shape. Golden flames flowed between the blades, and sometimes dazzling explosions broke out.
the light
Both the master and the apprentice stopped talking. The forging work has reached the most critical moment. The coppersmith's profound experience and Li Xu's long physical strength greatly speeded up the completion. After the blade and the excessive parts of the blade are smoothed, another fine product will be born.
"You actually have the mind to strike iron here!" The door of the workshop was kicked open, and a figure wrapped in the cold wind burst in angrily.
"Eru! Dang!" Li Xu was distracted, and the sledgehammer deviated from the target, denting the blade downwards. The natural pattern formed by the forging of star iron was shattered, and the entire blade no longer looked smooth.
Tiancheng put down the hammer in annoyance and looked at Eru
"Come on, follow me to the central tent!" Eru's eyes were red, and she pulled the corner of Li Xu's clothes like crazy and pulled it outwards. The idiot in front of her was so brainless that his wife was about to be robbed, but he still cared about it.
Make a knife for others
"What, what's going on!" Li Xu pulled Eru a little unhappily and asked in a low voice. All the hard work today was in vain because of Eru's recklessness. If he wanted to restore the pattern on the blade surface, the entire blade would have to be reworked.
Return to furnace
"Beat, I'll beat you to death!" Eru, who has always been gentle and considerate, shouted with tears in her eyes, "They want Tao Kuo to marry off to the Turks, but you actually have the heart to strike iron here!"
"What?" Li Xu was stunned and didn't react for a moment. Tao Kuo was going to marry a Turk. Didn't he say that a Turk's daughter was going to marry Aslan? Why, just a few days later, all the arrangements were gone.
changed?
"Go and do your best!" The coppersmith pushed Li Xu on the shoulder and persuaded him in a low voice.
"Oh!" Li Xu agreed, and stumbled out of the workshop after Eru. As soon as the autumn wind blew, his mind immediately woke up. Tao Kuo Tuosi wanted to marry a Turk, but Tao Kuo Tuosi was already in love with him.
Chief's appointment? Chief Xier approved this matter! Elder Etuo blessed this matter! The entire Suchu tribe and the entire grassland once blessed himself and Tao Kuo Tuosi!
He jumped on his horse and rushed madly towards the central tent. No wonder he always felt that Queyu's drunken smile was so mysterious. This man was not drunk at all that day, but he got the entire Su Chuan tribe drunk!
'Aslan is just a tribal nobleman. If his son marries Ashina Choyu's daughter, it will inevitably break the balance of power within the Suchu tribe!' As he was galloping, Li Xu felt that he had turned into Xu Dayan, and his eyes instantly
Breaking through the dark fog, "In order to maintain the authority of the Xier family in the Suchu tribe, someone in the patriarch's family must marry someone with a higher status in the Ashina family." The prairie people have an upright character, but it doesn't mean that the prairie people don't understand.
Trading Li Xu knew that he was really stupid. Silly enough to believe Ashina Choyu's generosity so easily. Silly enough to believe that everyone around him was as sincere and kind as Uncle Jiu. Silly enough to regard himself as a member of Su Chuanbu.
A part of...
The black wind that he won from Que Yu was worthy of being a BMW. After a few leaps and bounds, it rushed to the central tent where the tribe held meetings. After that, Li Xu jumped off the horse, holding a scimitar and rushed to the front door of the central tent.
The moment his body brushed against the round tent wall, he heard a choking sound...
"Fu Li is not showing off, no, Fu Li is for the glory of the tribe, so he bet with Que Yu and the wolf cavalry is so fierce. He doesn't want our shepherd to lose his spirit!"
"It's Tao Kuo Tuosi, she's speaking for me!" Li Xu's footsteps stagnated, and his heart was immediately filled with a mixture of happiness and sorrow, and his whole body began to tremble.
"She is speaking for me, she has not abandoned me!" Trembling, the young man straightened his back. He straightened his clothes and walked slowly towards the front door of the tent. No matter how many winds and rains were waiting ahead, he must use reason instead of
Resolutely resolve
"Chief Xier, can women be allowed to speak freely in the meeting of ministers and elders?" A sinister voice interrupted Tao Kuo's crying. It was Elder Miye. Li Xu knew that he was too familiar with this voice. It was this one.
The shameless old guy hesitated and flinched when facing a strong enemy, but now he has come up with the idea of sacrificing Tao Kuo Tuosi in order to gain favor from the Turks.
"This is my own marriage. Of course I can speak for myself!" Tao Kuo looked at everyone with tears in his eyes and answered with a hint of determination. These people have gone crazy. They have no conscience and have done so many things for the tribe.
, they actually chose to betray without any ceremony.
"This is not your own marriage. This is a major event that affects the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of people!" Elder Etuo stood up, his voice without any emotion, "The Turks proposed marriage to the nephew of Qimin Khan, and we have no power to refuse."
"When have the descendants of the White Swan ever relied on others?" Duer's old father Gabler stood up and said. Among the elders, he has always been known for being stingy and reticent. Today, for a foreign boy, he actually refuted his prestige in person.
The most important forehead support elder
Several elders Su Chui, who usually don't like to take care of things, were whispering to each other below, turning the tent into a pot of quarrel. Today's affairs are indeed very difficult. The daughter of the Xier family married the nephew of Qimin Khan. This is simply a gift from the gods of immortality.
With the grace of the Su Chuan tribe, the Lin tribe has not married such a powerful ally in hundreds of years. However, Fu Li is the bodyguard of the Holy Wolf, and no one with eyes should choose to forget everything he has done since he came to the tribe!
"If we reject the Ashina family's proposal, we will have no power to resist the anger of the Turkic royal court. We only have a few thousand warriors, but the Turks have 200,000 wolf riders!" Su Chuali stood up and tried to keep his tone calm.
It sounds peaceful. He has finally waited for this opportunity. If the person who took away his name and honor is not removed, there is no telling whose head the white swan crown will fall in the future.
Outside the big tent, Li Xu's steps became slower and slower. It was clear that he could go around the side of the big tent and rush to the entrance of the tent just by turning around, but his body was as heavy as lead, preventing him from taking that crucial step.
Li was absolutely right. He had already provided everything he could for the Su Chuo tribe, but the Turkic Royal Court had two hundred thousand wolf riders!
Two hundred thousand wolf riders, thinking about the massacre when they broke through Suotou Xibu that day, all that was left in front of Li Xu was blood.
"Fuli can fight side by side with us and resist foreign humiliation!" Tao Kuo Tuosi shouted at the top of his lungs. When Su Chufuli was talking, she saw many elders nodding frequently, even the elder Shetisha who was the best to herself and Fuli.
, she leaned on the ground and lowered her head. A feeling of despair enveloped her whole body, but she could not accept this fate, never!
"That Han won't fight side by side with us, he is a deserter!" Su Chufuli sneered, turning his gaze to everyone present, "I have gone to several traders in private and asked about the origin of that Han boy. The Emperor of the Sui Dynasty wanted to
Those Han guys didn’t dare to attack Goryeo, so they fled to our tribe on the pretext of doing business. Think about it, will a coward who is unwilling to fight for his own tribe shed blood for someone else’s tribe?”
"Fu Li is not a coward, Fu Li is not..." Tao Kuo Tuosi burst into tears in despair. She wanted to defend her sweetheart, but she couldn't deny that what her uncle said was true. Li Xu had nothing to hide from her, why he came to Xibu, why
She knew the reason why she was not in a hurry to go home.
"Will a coward who is unwilling to fight for his own tribe bleed for someone else's tribe?" Li Xu stood blankly beside the felt tent, his face pale and his body shrunken into a withered grass in the wind. Eru had already caught up.
I took his hand and walked towards the felt tent door, but I couldn't pull him any further.
In despair, he saw Tao Kuo Tuosi rushing out of the tent in tears. He saw Eru crying and chasing after Tao Kuo Tuosi. He saw the Su Chu warrior in front of the tent door staring at him with contempt in his eyes.
