Chapter Seventy-One: The Gift

Although the waiting time was not long, Tang Ning still had a few words with the cavalry leader. His name is Zanda, and he was born in this tribe. Listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that he has played with the leader of this tribe since he was a child.

Including the later rebellion against Ali Gu and the battle against Ali Gu's army, he was involved.

Tang Ning expressed his admiration for him, saying that he was a brave warrior, and that the leader of the tribe was lucky to have a talent like him.

Zanda, on the other hand, shook his head and replied that the leader was the true warrior, and he was secondary.

It seems that this leader was made by his own ability, otherwise he would not have been so maintained by Zanda.

After chatting a few words, a person came out of the unusual-looking tent in the center, and when the person came out, his back was to Tang Ning, Tang Ning didn't see his appearance clearly, but when he saw his outline, it was a little familiar.

Then Zanda led Tang Ning into the tent, and before entering, Zanda looked at Pei Xiantong and Lin Wei and said, "The two of them can't go in." ”

"Why don't you let me in?"

After Lin Wei got the instruction of Tang Ning's eyes, he stood aside and said nothing, but Pei Xiantong was very unhappy.

"For the safety of the chief, the guests' guards are not allowed to enter the tent." Zanda seemed to have a lot of patience with Tang Ning's group, and Pei Xiantong was so vexatious, he didn't get angry, but explained with a smile.

Pei Xiantong was about to speak again, but Tang Ning hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, let you wait outside, you just wait outside, and you can't die." ”

Pei Xiantong blinked and said, "They think about the safety of their leader, and I also want to think about your safety!" What if you can't talk and they make a move on you? ”

After that, he whispered in Tang Ning's ear: "These aliens are always untrustworthy......"

Tang Ning smiled: "Don't worry, they are not so stingy." Besides, they already have the powerful enemy Ali Gu, if they still have brains, they know that it is not a good choice to offend the Song people at this time. ”

Pei Xiantong glanced at Tang Ning, and Tang Ning smiled and nodded at him. Pei Xiantong snorted and said, "You can do it yourself!" ”

After saying that, he walked to Lin Wei's side angrily.

Zanda smiled at Tang Ning and said, "You Song women, are you all like her?" ”

"She's a special case, different." After Downing's simple answer, he was led into the big tent by Zanda.

These Qingtang people were very face-saving and did not ask for a body search. In Downing's view, this is a sign of trust in himself.

As soon as I entered the tent, I saw a strong man with a full beard sitting cross-legged on the ground in the center. Although Downing was at the door of the tent and the man was at the end of the tent, Downing still felt that this

The strong man was like a mountain blocking Tangning's face.

After Zanda came in, he knelt down on one knee and said a few words to the man, and the Qiang interpreter whispered in Tang Ning's ear, "He is introducing you." ”

The man was very enthusiastic about Zanda, and when he first came in, he still had an iceberg-like expression on his face, and when he saw Zanda, he immediately changed his smile.

He even walked down in person, picked up Zanda, who was kneeling on one knee, and the two of them muttered a phone call.

The Qiang interpreter whispered again: "He said that the two of them are close friends, and there is no need for such boring etiquette......"

As he spoke, Zanda pointed to Tang Ning who was standing aside, and the man turned his head, looked Tang Ning up and down, and said, "Song people, what are you doing here?" ”

"I am under the jurisdiction of the Zhenjiang Army, and now my troops are stationed in Wachui Village. This time I came to see the king to give him a gift and make friends with the king. ”

"Oh? Do you Song people like to make friends so much? The Song man who just left also wants to make friends with me. The man raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It's hard not to make a deal with the three words friends, what other meanings do you have in the language of the Song people?" ”

Tang Ning said with a smile: "King, even in our Song Kingdom, the three words of making friends are only literal, and have no other meaning.

So you don't have to doubt my sincerity, and the gift I have brought will surely make you very satisfied. ”

The man laughed: "Then tell me, what gift did you bring here?" ”

"I brought you a guy who is out there right now." After that, Tang Ning arched his hand at Zanda and said, "Brother Zan, please trouble you to go and bring the person with the black cloth on his head." ”

After the Qiang interpreter spoke to Zanda, Zanda nodded and hurriedly left the big tent.

Leaving Downing to look at the man.

The two of you, you look at me, I look at you, and I didn't see a flower after watching it for a long time. So the man laughed and said, "Song people, no matter what kind of gift you bring me, you are a guest from afar, I invite you to drink goat's milk!" ”

After that, there was a loud roar, and a short Qingtang man came in outside the tent.

The man commanded a few words, and the Qingtang man nodded and left.

After a while, he brought in two bowls of goat's milk with a tray.

Although the smell is very strong, Tang Ning is not so pretentious. Pinching his nose and drinking it in one gulp, Zanda also brought people in.

The black cloth on his head still hadn't been removed, and the man said loudly, "Who is that person?" ”

Downing stepped forward and ripped the black cloth off Zak's head, startling both Zanda and the man.

Zha jie as a green pond

The commander of the people in this area naturally has a long-standing grudge with this tribe. However, neither Zanda nor the leader could do anything about him, because the soldiers under Zajie's command were still somewhat strong for them.

Therefore, when they saw Zha Jie, they were both surprised, and even doubted whether this Zha Jie was impersonated by the Song people.

"This ...... Is this a tie? Zanda asked hesitantly.

I saw that Zajie was full of anger, but he had several walnuts stuffed in his mouth, and he couldn't speak. The man called someone to come and remove the walnuts from Zha Jie's mouth, and Zha Jie said angrily: "You rebellious ministers and thieves actually have fornicated with the Song people, don't you think that doing so is a defilement of the land under your feet?" ”

After Tang Ning removed the black cloth on Zajie's head, he sat on the side and held his hands to watch the excitement. The next thing is not something he can meddle in.

The leader's face darkened instantly, and he glared at Zha Jie and said, "Zha Jie, you are just a first-order prisoner now, where did you get the courage to continue to shout and curse in front of me?" ”

Zha Jie snorted and said: "Even if I am a prisoner, what I do is worthy of the king and the grassland under my feet.

Even if I die, I have a clear conscience. But you bastards, when you die, even wolves and vultures will come to eat your corpses. ”

The leader was furious and slapped the ground to his feet. But as soon as he raised his hand, for some reason, he calmed down. Zanda had been watching his performance and was relieved to see this.

"No matter how much you provoke me, you are still a prisoner.

I will not kill you easily, the harm you have done to the people of my tribe over the years, every blood debt you have committed, it is time to pay it off now. The leader said expressionlessly, "Zanda, take him down, take good care of him, don't starve him, and don't let him die." ”

Zanda nodded, and pulled Zakjie away.

The leader waited for the shouting and scolding Zha Jie and Zanda to leave, before turning his gaze to Tang Ning and saying, "Song people, you have brought me a very good gift, and you are qualified to be my friend.

Don't know what your name is? ”

Tang Ning got up and said with a smile: "Under the surname Tang, the single name is Ning." ”

The leader nodded and said, "My name is Ah Ling." ”

After that, the leader said, "Tang Ning, tell me what you mean." You handed over the tie to me, and it was definitely not as simple as making friends.

For so many years, you merchants of the Song Kingdom have come to Qingtang under the banner of making friends, but you will never return empty-handed.

Although I don't particularly like you Song people, you are an exception, and you brought Zha Jie to me. So I thought, if I had the ability, I would have granted your request. ”
