The next process was simpler, and the next morning they were discovered by a shepherd in the distance, and after another two hours, figures on horseback kept appearing all around, but they did not come, but only accompanied them from a distance.

It wasn't until there were still more than 20 miles away from the muddy water village that a large number of cavalry roared in the dust. This time it's really a soldier, the regular army of Western Xia!

When Shi Tong took out Akema's short knife and said that he had been entrusted to find Yegoro in escort, those Western Xia soldiers were not too embarrassed, but only checked the goods, and then took away the weapons carried by each person, and sandwiched the four of them between the horse team and entered the muddy water village.

The turbid water village sounds quite big, but it is actually a military camp with a circle of wooden fences, but the 100th Western Xia cavalry is stationed, and like those military villages on the border of the Song Dynasty, in addition to being a sentry, it is a patrol and guard function.

"How can I be sure he's Yegoro?" The Western Xia officer who claimed to be called Yegoro made it difficult for Fuji to be sure, because he was more than a few years older than Ahmad, brother? It is not an exaggeration to say that he is Ahmad's father.

Before confirming the identity of the other party, Fuji didn't want to say anything more. But how to determine the identity of the other party, this question has to consult Shi Tong.

"You little lady is too long-winded, is there a second Yegolo here!" I didn't think that this Western Xia officer could understand Chinese, so he was immediately unhappy, and he turned the short knife in his hand, but his eyes were aimed at Fu Ji, as if he was pondering which part to get the knife from.

"Their officers all have waist tags, just take a look!" Shi Tong ignored the other party's threat at all, not only told Fu Ji how to distinguish the other party's identity, but also said in a loud voice.

"Okay, you barbarian, if you are not a spy of the Song army, you are not afraid of tying up and dragging it behind the horse and turning into a pile of minced meat!" As soon as Shi Tong's words came out, the Tangut officers jumped up and kept shouting in Chinese and Tangut.

"When I was young, I killed the Qiang soldiers and the Tubo soldiers in Huangzhou, and I was never afraid of my eyes falling out. If you don't try, if I cut you down, it's a fake, and if you cut you down, I'll be Yegoro! ”

Shi Tong's change made Fu Ji grit her teeth with hatred, and finally arrived at the place, why did she suddenly scream with the other party. As the saying goes, how dare you not bow your head under the eaves of people, and if you can't speak well, why do you have to shout and kill. But he couldn't persuade him, so he had to look at him desperately.

"Hahaha...... Okay, good, just do what you say! Here, give him a knife and show him who I am! "The Western Xia officer is also a two-hundred-and-five, and he actually wants to compete with a stranger in his own military village.

The venue of the competition was outside the tent, and there was a circle of Western Xia soldiers around. When Fu Ji saw the weapons in the hands of the two people, she breathed a sigh of relief. It's not a real knife, but a wooden knife, which must be used by these Western Xia soldiers in their usual training.

It's really fun for two and a half old men to fight each other with sticks, like two big roosters whose hair is about to fall out, desperately trying to prove that they are better than each other. Although he was tired and wheezing, no one refused to show weakness, but no one could take advantage.

Shi Tongsheng is experienced, his tricks are simple but effective, and he can often turn danger into a disaster and make sharp counterattacks. The Western Xia officer is better than physical strength, don't look at him and Shi Tong are about the same age, but he has a lot of strength, and the wind is blowing under the stick, and he doesn't care what the part is, he has no head and no brain.

As the saying goes, boxing is afraid of being less strong, and fighting is afraid of good defense, as long as it can delay time, the opponent's strength will weaken sooner or later, and then show flaws.

Shi Tong did just that, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Western Xia officer stumbling under his feet with a stick, he pinned his stick into the opponent's legs and made a trip, and then poked the fallen Western Xia officer with a wooden stick, indicating that the other party had been stabbed to death.

"Here, my waist card, the southerners are cunning......" The Western Xia officer didn't play tricks, he didn't even dust off the soil when he got up, and he took off the waist card and threw it over, while muttering unconvinced.

"......" Shi Tong turned over the waist card for Fu Ji to see, the Western Xia army is still a bilingual team, the front of the waist card is in Western Xia language, but there are Chinese characters on the back, and it is indeed called Yegolo.

"Ahmad wanted to exchange thirty camels for these scriptures, and he asked me to come to you and contact the people to come and trade." Fu Ji was relieved when she saw the waist card, as for why the two brothers were so old, what about him.

“…… You let him be deceived, these scriptures can be exchanged for fifty camels or thirty fine horses, why don't I help you find a good buyer. ”

Back in the tent, Yegoro didn't care whether there was a woman present or not, he first took off his shirtless, panting for breath and not forgetting to stab his brother in the back.

"No, since the price has been negotiated, it is a good deal. We traders pay attention to credit, if Lord Ye is also interested in scriptures, you might as well wait. If I can come once, there will be a second and a third time. ”

Fuji is weak in fighting, but when it comes to negotiating deals, she is more comfortable. She doesn't know why the other party said this, but she knows a principle, that is, you can't change the transaction partner casually.

"Hey, hey, hey...... I didn't expect that there would be a jumping girl on the grassland, which is really strange. You wait to stay here first, and you can't go out of the village, I will send someone back to the tribe to report, and you can arrive in two days. ”

Yegolo didn't seem to have anything to say, so he called the tooth soldiers outside the account to take Fuji and his party to rest. Then two Western Xia soldiers rode away, presumably to inform the Ahmad tribe.

I don't know whether the other party intentionally or unintentionally, only a tent was arranged for four people to live. Fu Ji didn't say much about this arrangement, the military village was indeed not rich, and this tent was relatively new, newer than most Western Xia soldiers.

"Why did you fight him just now, wouldn't it be trouble if you lost!" However, she was very dissatisfied with Shi Tong's performance just now, even if her eyes were cut off and blinded by the Tanguts, she couldn't catch the Tanguts and wanted to take revenge, and delayed all the business.

"The shopkeeper misunderstood, Yegolo deliberately didn't check the waist card, he was testing us. If everything had gone according to his wishes, we would not have been able to go back, and we would have no camels to replace, and only four dry bones remained. If you want to do this business, you must remember that this is not the Great Song Dynasty, and the rules and etiquette are not counted, and in the end, you have to rely on force to speak! Shi Tong actually laughed, but it was more ugly to laugh than to cry. He didn't think it was a risk, but he thought it was saving everyone.

"Brother Tong is right, when you interact with the Fan people, you must not talk about our etiquette, if you can fight, you can fight, if you can't fight, you have to hold on and don't shout pain, once they look down on you, you will be no different from cattle and sheep." Jiang Erlang, who rarely speaks, also agreed with Shi Tong's approach and spoke more directly.

"I forgot about it, did I change it for a pair?"

Fu Ji also laughed, laughing self-deprecatingly. This time she came out to feel that the world is really wonderful, and at the same time, she also felt her own shortcomings. Fortunately, I can still make up the class in time, and it's not too late.

There is much more to learn than that, there are completely different living habits and eating habits, and the food here makes Fu Ji suffer enough. Half-cooked mutton, dry and hard fried rice, bitter barley noodles, greasy milk tea...... So it was.

Vegetables and fruits are counted here for the New Year, and it is possible to see those luxuries only in the plain area where Xingqing Mansion is located, and it is good to be able to eat enough in the border area, and if you can drink tea again, it is happiness.

This is the first time that Fu Ji thinks that the tea is so delicious, and she swallows the few tea residues like applying copper, and even feels a hint of sweetness.
