Catching Monsters

Chapter 249 Is This Your Slave?

The two of them couldn't help but be surprised, because the note said, kill Wanyan Yushan.

On the way here, Jiang Yun also learned a lot of information about the Northern Hu from Linglong, including Wanyan Yushan.

There are hundreds of tribes in the entire Northern Hu, and the Wanyan tribe is now the largest tribe. At least in terms of situation, it has unified the entire Northern Hu.

The leader of the Wanyan tribe, who is also the current Khan, is named Wanyan Chihu. He has more than ten brave sons, the most outstanding of whom is Wanyan Yushan.

It is said that Wanyan Yushan was only thirty years old, but he could lift a tripod with both hands. He had mastered martial arts and his strength was very impressive.

Wanyan Chihu also intended to train him as his successor.

Jiang Yun looked at the contents of the note and his face suddenly turned dark. Was he kidding me? He wanted me and Linglong to assassinate this guy?
Not to mention that Wanyan Yushan himself is quite powerful. As the most respected son of the Wanyan tribe leader, how many guards does he have around him?
Even if the two of them tried to kill him.

Can you leave the grassland alive?
No wonder Feng Yu claimed that he would tell me what the mission was when I arrived at the grassland. If I were in the capital, I would know...

Jiang Yun will definitely not come.

Pan Nangui said in a deep voice: "Have you two finished reading? According to my estimation, Wanyan Yushan's cultivation should be at the fourth level of martial arts, and he spends most of his time in the capital of the Wanyan tribe, but he goes out hunting two days a week."

Jiang Yun frowned and said, "Mr. Pan, the two armies are about to fight. Killing Wanyan Yushan will not help the front line in any substantial way. How about you take a look and see if there is any mission like burning food and grass in the rear for us two?"

Pan Nangui shook his head with a smile on his face: "You two must be unique to be sent by the higher-ups to carry out such an important mission. Tasks like burning food and grass will be handled by others."

Then, Pan Nangui slowly said, "Wanyan Chihu's health has been deteriorating in recent years. According to calculations, he may only live for one or two years."

"Among his descendants, only Wanyan Yushan is the most outstanding and can convince the public."

"As long as Wanyan Yushan is successfully killed, once Wanyan Chihu dies, the entire Wanyan tribe will be torn apart."

This is also the norm for many tribes of the Northern Hu. Once the leader dies, if there is a strong successor, the tribe will quickly stabilize.

On the contrary, if most of the chief's descendants are mediocre in ability and do not submit to each other, and then they try to sow discord among themselves, the entire tribe will fall apart.

Pan Nangui also knew that this task was difficult, and then said: "There is a house on the right side of this street. You two can stay there temporarily. I will try my best to help you figure out Wanyan Yushan's actions."

"If you want to kill him, you have the best chance when he's out hunting."

"Although he will be followed by many experts...it is still better than being in Jinqu City."

"Whether you succeed or not, once you've taken action, you will continue to flee north..."

Jiang Yun was a little confused and asked, "Continue to the north?"

Pan Nangui nodded and said, "Continue to the north for two hundred miles and you will reach the territory of the Helan tribe. There is a feud between the Helan tribe and the Wanyan tribe..."

After walking out of the Chinese medicine shop, both of them felt a little heavy-hearted and soon arrived at the house arranged by Pan Nangui.

This is a courtyard house made of rammed earth. After pushing open the door, it is clean inside. There are no chairs, but stone pillars instead.

Although there are trees on the grassland, they are scarce, and only people with high status and identity among the Hu people can use wooden furniture.

Most ordinary people just use stone blocks or rammed earth to make a mound as a stool.

In the early years, the Hu people basically sat on the ground. However, after they came into contact with the southerners, they all said that the southerners were treacherous and cunning and were only fit to be slaves.

But I am learning the living habits of southerners imperceptibly.

After Jiang Yun and Linglong sat down casually, Jiang Yun sighed deeply. Although he felt helpless, since it was a fact, he looked at Linglong and said, "Master, what do you think we should do next?"

Linglong stroked her chin, looking thoughtful, and said slowly: "We can't do it when Wanyan Yushan is hunting."

"The grassland is vast and boundless. Once we start, we will be chased by his soldiers and it will be difficult for us to escape."

"If we want to take action, we have to do it in Golden Melody City."

"After all, Jinqu City has a full 200,000 permanent residents, plus merchants coming and going, so it would be easy to hide after the action."

Linglong said in a deep voice: "Let's go out for a walk. At least we need to get to know the general terrain of Jinqu City."

……

In an inn in Jinqu City, Huyan Yan'er, wearing a white silk gown, sat at the window, looking at the pedestrians on the street.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

A Hu man pushed open the door and said respectfully, "Sir, the person has been lost."

"Lost?" Hu Yanyan frowned, looked at him with some displeasure, and said in a deep voice: "The identities of those two southerners are quite strange. The battle is about to start at Jianchi Pass on the front line. At this time, any actions of the southerners must be paid special attention." "Yes." The Hu people said, "Sir, Lord Wanyan Yushan heard that you have arrived in Jinqu City and has sent someone to invite you to visit the royal city."

When Huyan Yaner heard the name Wanyan Yushan, a look of displeasure appeared on her face.

She knew that Wanyan Yushan was interested in her and had sent many gifts to Huyan tribe, hoping that she would marry him, but Huyan Yan'er did not like him.

It can be said that Wanyan Yushan meets Huyan Yan'er's standards in all aspects, such as being brave and good at fighting, and having great strength. In an environment like the Hu people that advocates the use of force, he can be said to be a perfect match for Huyan Yan'er.

The only pity is that he is extremely ugly, and Huyan Yaner likes handsome guys, so at least he has to be pleasing to the eye.

"Tell him that I came to Jinqu City on behalf of the Huyan tribe to discuss the war on the front line and I don't want to meet him." Huyan Yaner said.

Upon hearing this, the Hu people under his command nodded slightly and left.

Huyan Yaner's eyes suddenly lit up because she saw two familiar figures strolling on the street below.

On the bustling street, Jiang Yun and Ling Long were wearing shackles on their feet...

Sure enough, after putting on the handcuffs, the way people around them looked at them was no longer strange.

"Buy two handcuffs and put them on. They will be much more comfortable." Jiang Yun smiled and admired the scenery in Jinqu City.

The prosperity of Jinqu City and the capital are two different scenes. There are also many new and interesting things on the roadside that Jiang Yun has never seen before.

Linglong followed Jiang Yun with her hands behind her back and said calmly, "We are here to explore the terrain, don't forget it."

"I remember, I remember." Jiang Yun nodded.

At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and placed its hand on Linglong's shoulder.

Linglong grabbed the man's wrist reflexively and prepared to fight back.

Huyan Yan'er, however, put her hand on Linglong's back, and they both exerted their strength secretly.

Hu Yanyan said in a deep voice: "You two don't want to cause any trouble, right?"

When they turned around, it was Huyan Yaner. Jiang Yun and Linglong looked at each other and frowned.

"Why, you two used me to enter Jinqu City, but you don't even want to say thank you?" Hu Yanyan was quite interested in the two of them, and said slowly: "If you two are free, I will treat you to a meal? This should be the etiquette of you southerners, right?"

"What do you want to do?" Linglong asked in a deep voice.

But Huyan Yan'er did not answer her question and walked towards the inn where she was staying.

Jiang Yun and Linglong looked at each other, and Linglong said, "Let's go and follow her to see what she wants to do."

This inn was built of wood, and its exterior and interior were no different from many luxurious inns in the capital.

Of course, this is also one of the best inns in Jinqu City, and it is not a place where ordinary Hu people can live.

Huyan Yaner found a seat near the corner and sat down, ordered some food, and asked the shopkeeper to bring a pot of strong liquor.

"We, the children of the grassland, all like to drink strong liquor." Huyan Yaner said, pouring wine for them.

Jiang Yun got straight to the point and asked, "Who are you?"

"You two don't need to be so reserved. My name is Huyan Yan'er, and I'm from the Huyan tribe." She poured the liquor, took a sip, and said with a smile, "I know you two must have some purpose for coming here, but it has nothing to do with me. I like making friends."

"Make friends?" Jiang Yun laughed and took a sip of the liquor. He knew very well that Huyan Yan'er was of noble status. If she had no other purpose, how could she possibly want to make friends with the two of them?

Hu Yanyan looked at the two of them and said, "After drinking, according to the rules of the grassland, we are considered friends. I..."

Before she finished her words, suddenly, a familiar voice was heard at the door of the inn.

"Hahaha, Huyan Yan'er, you arrived much earlier than me."

Jiang Yun looked back, his face suddenly darkened, Tuoba Anyi...

"Brother Tuoba, you finally came here in person, please take a seat." When Huyan Yan'er saw Tuoba Anyi appear, her eyes lit up slightly and she quickly stood up to greet him.

Tuoba Anyi is a powerful and influential person. He is the leader of the Tuoba tribe and most importantly, he is handsome.

Huyan Yan'er had long been secretly attracted to him.

Tuoba Anyi laughed loudly, walked over, and saw the two people sitting at the table with their backs to him, and the shackles on their feet: "Is this your slave? How can he be so unruly and sit at the table?"

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Jiang Yun's face, but his smile froze.
