Chapter 2: 2

“You’re not a woman, what person are we robbing!” Missing ear heard Yan Jingze’s words and shouted loudly.

At the same time, the man with a horse face with two moustaches beside Su Moxiu has a few deep lines between his eyebrows with sorrow written all over his face. The middle-aged man, who was much more gentle than the people around him, looked at Yan Jingze up and down.

His narrowed eyes flickered. After frowning, the vertical lines between his eyebrows become deeper. He obviously doesn’t trust Yan Jingze much.

This group is headed by Su Moxiu. The middle-aged man with a horse face should be a military advisor. Missing ear status must not be low. As for the rest of those who remained silent, although surprised, they were still obedient soldiers.

Yan Jingze looked at the situation, he sighed secretly — these people’s disguise skills really are not up to standard. If they are really the Rong, at this moment, they will already burst out laughing and make fun of him!

“Who said man can’t be robbed back?” Yan Jingze smiled at Su Moxiu, “Xiao langjun, have pity on me. Take me and give me a bite to eat! Otherwise, I may not be able to return to DaQi and starve to death on the road!”

Su Moxiu glanced up and down at Yan Jingze with sharp eyes, then finally said: “You follow us!”

“Okay.” Yan Jingze responded with a smile, he blinked at Su Moxiu.

Su Moxiu’s breathing became rapid, the white mist he exhaled spread out in front of him. He turned his head and said to the others: “Let’s go back!”

As soon as he finished, he pulled the reins and turned away. After taking a few steps, he turned his head again and said to his subordinate that was beside Yan Jingze in Rong language: “You look after him. Don’t let him run away!”

“Yes!” The others had surrounded Yan Jingze previously before he dismounted and moved towards Yan Jingze. The ‘bandits’ who were about to rob Yan Jingze answered ‘yes’ in unison. After getting on his horse, he gathered the others around Yan Jingze, then he looked at Yan Jingze cautiously.

Yan Jingze looked back at him obediently and innocently, looking very harmless, but Xiao Hua, who he was riding, suddenly turned to bite the tall and sturdy horse next to him, making the horse hurriedly dodge to the side.

Xiao Hua bared its teeth towards another horse, trying to bite them, making all the horses retreat, only then did it move forward arrogantly.

The thin and scruffy horse really walks away courageously in an imposing manner.

“What kind of horse is this!” A ‘bandit’ muttered while soothing his horse that was almost bitten, and glared at Yan Jingze.

This horse team came in a hurry and went in a hurry, they didn’t rob the food that they wanted but rob a person back…

On the way back, Su Moxiu rode at the front, behind him was the middle-aged man with an ear missing and the man with a horse face. After the three of them were Su Moxiu’s four guards. Behind the four guards was Yan Jingze and the person responsible for watching Yan Jingze.

The road in the forest is narrow, only one can ride by so the line was a bit long.

Missing ear looked back, making sure that Yan Jingze couldn’t hear them, then he said to Su Moxiu in Han language: “Second young master, why did you bring that little white face too? We haven’t eaten ourselves!”

Saying that, his mouth smash: “I originally thought we rob a Rong person and get some food. I didn’t expect that we would get a person but no food…”

“You only know how to eat.” The horse-faced middle-aged man frowned and looked at missing ear, “Second young master must have his own consideration for bringing that person along!”

“What consideration?” Missing ear asked.

Su Moxiu’s face turned hot, there was a little redness on his tanned face. Fortunately, he was at the forefront so others couldn’t see: “This…this…”

Without waiting for Su Moxiu to think about what to say, the horse-faced middle-aged man said: “We are both Rong soldier and bandit but that man isn’t afraid of us at all, and even takes the initiative to follow us…Second young master put him close to him to observed is correct.”

“He’s not simple? Didn’t he do it for just a meal?” Missing ear question.

“Zhang Erque, can you use your brain a bit? This man not only speaks the Rong language well but is also proficient in the Han language. He dared to enter Mount Qiong along…Simple, alright? Not to mention anything else, just his delicate skin is not something ordinary people could have!” The horse-faced middle-aged man said solemnly.

Missing ear, known as Zhang Erque, suddenly realized: “So that little white face was plotting against us? Fuck! I actually sympathized with him just now! I’m going to beat him up!”

Saying that, Zhang Erque was about to go back to call Yan Jingze. Seeing this, the horse-faced middle-aged man hurriedly said: “Wait! He isn’t necessarily trying to plot against us by following us, maybe he really just wants to have a meal! What in the world is going on, we will have to wait and observe. Your pig brain doesn’t have to worry about it.”

Zhang Erque said: “You scold me again! How am I a pig brain!”

“Doesn’t think much about everything, is your brain any different from a pig brain?” The horse-faced middle-aged man said.

The conversation behind him all fell into Su Moxiu’s ears. He reached out and pushed his hat, he doesn’t want to admit that he’s also a pig brain.

Zhang Erque added: “Sigh. I’m kind of craving pig brains. The soft pig brain, after steaming, sprinkle some green onion and soy sauce, pour hot oil, then take a spoon to take a bite and serve it with white rice…it’s really delicious! Pork head meat is also delicious. When I was a kid, things were fine at home. At the end of each year, my mother will buy a pig head to worship the ancestor. When she’s done, she stews the pig brain for me to eat, then cooks the whole pig head, then removes the bones and freezes the pig head with the broth. It can be made into two large pots of jelly pig head! The jelly pig head has a very strong taste. Cut it into small pieces and I can eat it with a bowl of rice…”

The middle-aged horse-faced man swallowed: “The best thing on a pig’s head is pig ears. Serve wine with marinated pig ears, that’s really how to make the Rong people come and unable to run away…”

Zhang Erque said: “The fat near the neck is delicious! Pig ears are all bones!”

“Pig ears are the essence of pig heads!”

“It must be the fat smell!”

Su Moxiu watched his right-hand man quarrel, he couldn’t help saying: “…I think pig nose and tongue are the best. Lots of meat and not fat!”

Zhang Erque doesn’t agree with Su Moxiu but the horse-faced middle-aged man said: “As second young master said. Pickled pig tongue and pig nose is the most delicious part!”

Su Moxiu’s stomach was empty, now listening to what the horse-faced middle-aged man said, he immediately thought of his mother’s pickled pig head from the previous years. The scene where he eats a large piece of pork tongue by himself…

Wait a minute, why are they talking about pork head meat? The question now is…

They only have enough food for one more porridge!

Before today, they have been together for a few days with only one porridge per day!

So hungry!

Su Moxiu and his party, as Yan Jingze guessed, they’re the Zhenbei Army.

They came to Mount Qiong to find someone.

Two months ago, when Zhou Jingshan, the commander of the Zhenbei Army, rushed into Mount Qiong when he was chasing down the Rong, he disappeared without a trace. In order to find him, many Zhenbei Army’s soldiers were secretly sent into the mountains.

They were looking for more than a month, but they only found Zhou Jingshan’s bloody coat. Many people think that Zhou Jingshan is dead so they went back, but there are some who refuse to give up. Among them is Su Moxiu’s father, Huai hua general Su Xingyin.

Su Xingyin was originally stationed in another place with the army, but knowing that Zhou Jingshan went missing, he decided to come to Mount Qiong with his subordinates.

There are about 200,000 people but the Zhenbei Army sends the retired, the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled away. Zhou Jingshan himself manages 80,000 people while the remaining 120,000 people were divided into four places and handed over to different generals. Su Xingyin got the most people, there are 50,000 people.

Relying on these 50,000 people, Su Xingyin insisted not to mourn Zhou Jingshan. He continued to send people into Mount Qiong, even passing through Mount Qiong to the Rong’s side to find him.

In the end, he even sent out his most precious second son, Su Moxiu.

Su Moxiu is 22 years old this year. He is a scholar, and even a juren1, but his strength shouldn’t be underestimated too.

He was smart from a young age. When he was 3 years old, because his 6 years old brother Su Moqi take away his toys but he couldn’t beat him, he insisted on practicing martial arts with Su Xingyin, the result…Su Xingyin taught Su Moqi a move and Su Moqi hadn’t learn it after a long time but Su Moxiu just observed it for a while and he learn it!

He can also endure hardship. After practicing for a while, his brother cried out tired but he neither complained nor cried out tired. He was dedicated to practicing martial arts to defeat his brother for revenge.

Su Xingyin was overjoyed when he saw this, praising his little son again and again, making him and his eldest son practice martial arts together.

Then……Su Moxiu really learned better than his brother!

Never minding that, Su Moqi sparred with his little brother that was three years younger than him and was defeated. He cried, wah wah, giving up martial arts and turning to literacy. The family hired a teacher for him, as a result……Su Moqi stumbled and couldn’t memorize the article or the words, Su Moxiu went to find his brother to play and just read a few times with the teacher and memorize the article!

Su Moqi was angry and cried on the spot. He abandoned literature and followed martial arts again —— compared to reading, he is still more talented in martial arts.

Although Su Moxiu learns quickly and his body is strong, Su Moqi also has a strong body. If the two fight hand to hand, with the advantage of age, Su Moqi can beat Su Moxiu to the ground. He is also a well-deserved leader among his peers.

It’s a pity that fighting is not just about force. As Su Moxiu grew up, even if Su Moqi is stronger than Su Moxiu, after studying medicine, Su Moxiu can also hit people’s weak spots.

The Su family wanted Su Moxiu to take the imperial examination to be an official so Su Moxiu didn’t enter the Zhenbei Army either.

Now Zhou Jingshan is missing, the Zhenbei Army is suspected of having a traitor. Su Xingyin has too few trustworthy people…because of that Su Xingyin sent out his second son.

Su Moxiu was not familiar with the Zhenbei Army military affair but he is proficient in Rong language. He knew so much, it was more appropriate to send him into Mount Qiong to find a person.

Su Xingyin certainly was also afraid that something would happen to Su Moxiu, therefore, two people were specially selected from the Zhenbei Army to follow Su Moxiu.

One of the two was the brawny man with the missing ear, his real name is Zhang Baoshan but because of his lack of both ear and mind, everyone called him Zhang Erque.

Don’t look at Zhang Erque’s lack of brain, he has a rich experience in fighting against the Rong, his strength is even stronger.

Another person is the horse-faced middle-aged man, Cai An.

Cai An looked bitter, but he’s actually quite tricky. He is one of the military advisors around Su Xingyin. He also worked as an accountant under Zhou Jingshan, and he knew Mount Qiong very well.

It has been a whole month since Su Moxiu brought Zheng Erque and Cai An into Mount Qiong to find someone. People need food, horses also need food. What they brought with them has long been eaten up. There’s no place to hunt in the cold winter, 12th lunar month. They’ve been hungry for days, that’s why they want to rob the Rong people, but they didn’t get to be busy in the end, nothing was rob.

After the three stopped talking about pork, their attention was returned to the robbed ‘body’.

No, it can’t be said that they robbed him…this is obviously the person taking the initiative to be robbed by them!

Zhang Erque said: “Old Cai, Why can’t I see what’s so special about that little white face? I only thought of him as those Rong people male pets…Otherwise, why did he think we should rob him back?”

Cai An said: “I said he wasn’t necessarily plotting something. His face is fair and tender, maybe he’s really a male pet like you said…it’s just, his height…”

Zhang Erque said: “Right. Although this man’s face is a little tender, his appearance is average and still so tall too! What with those Rong’s vision, how could they like such a big man?”

The man they robbed today, although sitting on a horse, they can also see that he is very tall, as for looks…

His skin is white and tender, which is rare beyond the great wall. He looks handsome too but he is still only a handsome man.

Don’t think they can’t see the stubble on the side of his face and chin!

Even if there’s a saying that said ‘after three years in the army, even a mother pig is better than Diaochan’2, and often men who become brothers also get together, Zhang Erque still has no interest in such a man. He can’t understand how other people are interested in such people.

“Average appearance?” Su Moxiu looked puzzled, “This is the first time in my life where I saw a man so handsome, how is he average?”

Zhang Erque and Cai An were both stunned. They always felt that something was wrong.
