Two days ago, when the two brothers, Masibayar and Unbayar were doing "business" near the border between China and Mongolia, they met a group of Chinese-speaking "huza" (a derogatory term for the Han people by some Mongolians) . Masibayar saw that this group of people was quite generous in their shots and had a new face. It seemed that it was the first time to come to Mongolia and did not understand the local "customs and customs." Right now, I have the idea of doing "business" with the other party.
I went up and talked about it, and learned that this group of Han people wanted to buy a batch of good horses, Masibayar patted his chest and said that he has the fastest horse on the grassland. As long as the money is in place, the sweaty BMW can find you. .
The Han people were very happy, and paid a generous deposit, without even asking for an invoice.
The Bayar brothers were also conscientious. They did not run away with the money as soon as they got the money. Instead, they went to the nearby horse market to buy a few scrawny old horses at the price of cabbage, and they patted their chests to pack their tickets. Seeing how these horses fall when the wind blows, they can run fast!
The group of Han people was not polite to them, and knocked the Bayar brothers to the ground and beaten them, knocking out several teeth.
Seeing the fierce appearance of this group of people, the Bayar brothers realized that they are not stupid, this is a hard problem, maybe the two brothers have to explain here. The two of them were also simply, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, begging each other to show their faces, and let their brothers go to the horse market to find some real steeds and pay them back.
Unexpectedly, the leader told them that they don’t need horses and money—but there is a condition that the Bayar brothers have to do something for them.
The Bayar brothers hurriedly patted their chests to pack tickets, as long as they don't hit people, they can talk about everything.
The man took out a map and pointed to a spot on it and said, "A group of people will pass by here in two days. You will secretly drop this bottle of medicine in their food. The account is cleared in a lump—I have additional rewards on my side."
While talking, the man weighed a thick stack of banknotes in his hands-this amount of money was enough for the Bayar brothers to defraud the income for half a year.
The Bayar brothers stared at the stack of banknotes with four eyes, watching with eager eyes and heartbeats, and immediately agreed.
The man leaned in his brother's ear, and gave such orders.
…
"Brother Surele and Ke, our brothers really didn't do this for money!"
Masibayar knelt on the ground and wailed: "I thought this medicine would make you dizzy for a few days. They said it was not very toxic!"
Daiqin gave him a slap in the face: "Huh, the bones are so black that they are not very toxic? Why don't you come and have a taste!"
Masibayar whimpered and said, "I don't know how powerful this medicine is, brothers Surele and K, you know us, we usually cheat a little bit of money and spend, never dare to kill anyone. Ah! I, we are also fooled by others!"
Masibayar looked at Surilheke with tears, looking like he was aggrieved.
Surile and Ke looked at Timur and nodded slightly, saying that he hadn't lied. The Bayar brothers are indeed wretched, but they don't have the courage to make money and kill them. Maybe they were really taken advantage of.
"What does the person who hired you look like?" Ah Chongran asked.
Masibayar was stunned, tilted his head for a moment, and said: "The man in the lead is black and thin, he is not young, and his hair is half white-by the way, he seems to have two legs. Problem, walking is weird."
"Many of them have a weird short knife in their waist. The blade is curved, which is different from what we use. I have never seen it before." Unbayar next to him also added.
Daiqin turned and walked out, returning to the tent soon, and threw a scabbard with a scabbard on the ground—it was the weapon they had seized when they surrounded the Gurkha mercenaries.
"Is it this kind of knife?"
"Yes, yes! That's the knife! Hey, why do you have it too?" Unbayar asked strangely.
A Chong looked at each other with Surele and Ke and the others. Now the situation was clear. It was the Gurkha mercenary who instructed the Bayar brothers to poison.
"How do you know that it is us they are poisoning? What if you poison the wrong person?" Timur asked quietly.
"He, they especially confessed that there is a Han Chinese in this team, who looks like and looks like this little brother." Masibayar glanced at A Chong and looked at Su Rile and Ke hesitated and said:
"He also said that there was an old man with a white beard and a big man who looked like a black bear..."
Obviously, the white-bearded old man described by the other party is Timur, and the black bear man refers to Surele and K. With these three obvious characteristics in the team, it is very difficult to admit mistakes.
Surele and Ke murmured: "Strange, how could these people know that we passed here in advance? Could it be counted if they can pinch it?"
A Chong said softly: "It is very possible that this person has mastered the background of all of us, and also knows the relationship between the senior and Asgen..., when we will go to Rishengbao to join him... can have such strength. People are probably the top ranks of the mercenaries, maybe this mercenary is their main force-it's just..."
"It's just what?" Suzhile and Ke said in wonder.
"There is one thing I didn't want to understand. Since the other party has mastered our whereabouts, why didn't he personally lead people to set up an ambush here, but instead sent these... these two?"
In front of the Bayar brothers, A Chong was embarrassed to say that their IQ was low. But obviously, everyone can see that these two dear friends are greedy, timid, and stupid, and their methods of poisoning can be described as low-level—pouring so many poisons in a pot, not to mention the presence of so many veterans, even if they are just ordinary people. People can also see that there is a problem in the pot.
Since the other party can count them to meet Asgen, and even guess the route so accurately, he must be a master of strategy. Why did the Bayar brothers release such a trick
In this way, isn't it tantamount to warning A Chong and them in advance
Surele, Ke and others asked the Bayar brothers a few more questions, and the two brothers murmured and said they were not clear, and they were beaten again. Looking at the two people crying and crying, it doesn't look like they are pretending, it seems that not much is known.
Timur ordered the two Bayars to be taken out for safekeeping. Then he motioned for Su Rile and Ke, Daiqin and A Chong to go out with him.
Naya took a few people in the tent to clean up the poisoned food and prepare to re-cook the pot.
The group of four returned to Timur’s tent, and the white dog squatting in front of the bed in Ajislan saw the crowd coming back, bowed his head and walked out quietly.
"There is one thing I need to tell you." Timur said, sitting cross-legged on the carpet:
"Asgen has always been in contact with me."
Daiqin and Surele and Ke looked at each other. Asgen and Timur's relationship were incompatible with each other. Most people in the tribe knew that they had broken contact many years ago, but they didn't expect that they were still communicating secretly.
"Although Asgen is in the same situation as me, he is always a member of our tribe. Every year, he sends someone to tell me that I am safe. By the way, I will take a look at Ajislan and bring some gifts and daily necessities." Timur While speaking, he touched the head of Ajislan who was asleep, his face involuntarily showed a kind and affectionate expression.
"In the past few years, I have heard that Asgen’s business is doing very well. I have my own family business in Rishengbao and have a group of powerful brothers. Although I disagree with him, it is now related to our people. When I survived, I couldn’t care too much. That’s why I decided to go to Rishengbao to find him—maybe he can help us tide over this difficulty.” Timur’s voice was rather low, and obviously he was not the one who made this decision. The original intention.
But in this situation, he has no other choice.
"I didn't expect those people to catch up so quickly, and they already knew my intentions. This would be more troublesome. Asgen and the others don't know our current situation, if the mercenaries arrive at Risheng Fort in advance. …"
Timur paused when he said that, everyone knew what he wanted to say.
These Gurkha mercenaries will not be merciful, they will definitely kill Asgen.
Timur glanced at the three of them and said: "Now our team is dragging their homes and moving slowly. In addition, in this kind of weather, it will not be until Risheng Fort that I know how long it will be. I am afraid that if we get there, As The roots are already..."
Timur was a little choked up here, although nominally he has severed contact with Asgen, but after all, the love between father and son is so deep, how can the flesh and blood affection be easily parted.
A Chong knew in his heart that the old man wanted to send someone to Rishengbao to send a warning letter to Asgen, but it was too dangerous to travel alone in this icy world. Not only is the weather bad and the distance is long, you might also encounter Gurkha's chasing soldiers. Such a task is similar to suicide.
Originally, he was the best person to send the letter, but with the presence of a shadow warrior, A Chong did not dare to leave the large army without authorization.
While hesitating, Daiqin stood up and said loudly, "I'll tell Brother Asgen about them!"
"Let me go, I am more familiar with this road!" Su Zile and K also stood up and said.
"Forget it, you have such a heavy body, you can't ride fast, give me two fast horses! If you rush overnight, you will be there in a few days!" Daiqin said with his chest straight, his face full of confidence.
Everyone knew that Daiqin had the best riding skills among these people, and it was indeed the best choice to let him go.
Timur shook Daiqin's hands and said gratefully, "Daiqin, although you are not a member of my tribe, I have always treated you as a son. This time... I really wronged you."
Daiqin also said touchedly: "Abba, you brought me up since I was a child, and Daiqin's life is yours! Don't worry, I will complete the task!"
As the evening approached, although the snow did not stop, the wind was finally weaker.
Surele and Ke handed the two best horses in the team to Daiqin, and Naya helped him prepare a week's dry food, and tied the luggage together firmly to the saddle.
Daiqin carried a shotgun, turned on another horse, turned his head and waved his hands with everyone, one person and two horses slowly marched to the distance, and soon disappeared in the snow in the sky.
