"Come again." Shen You took half a step back and waved to the female slave again.

The female slave was stunned for a moment, then slowly backed away, took a few deep breaths, and put on her posture again.

This time, she didn't dare to attack easily again, so she hid her body behind the shield and practiced a circle around Shen You.

Shen You was still standing with the saber in his hands, his hands were hanging down, his sleeves covered his hands, only half of the saber tip was exposed.

If you don't look at the half of the knife tip, he looks like a poet on the banks of the Yin River, not a warrior.

The female slave turned around twice, and when she turned behind Shen You, she suddenly rushed forward with a low body.She protected her body with a shield, and the long knife in her right hand clinging to the edge of the shield, stabbed fiercely at Shen You's lower abdomen.

Without looking back, Shen You kicked up suddenly and kicked on the shield.

"Boom!" With a muffled sound, the female slave was kicked backwards out of the tent by Shen You and fell to the ground.

The guards outside the tent were startled, and in an instant, several spears were pointed at the fallen female slave.

The slave girl was lying on the ground with her hands spread out, her face was covered in blood.

Shen You's kick was so powerful that the shield hit her in the face, breaking the arch of her eyebrow.

If it wasn't for her deep eye sockets, she might not be able to keep her right eye.

Tang Suhe rushed out first, kicked the knife away from the female slave, then squatted in front of the female slave, took a look, and clicked his tongue.

"The teacher has great strength. This lowly slave is as strong as a cow, but he can't stand the teacher's kick."

The teenagers who followed were also surprised.

Shen You seemed weak, but he didn't expect to have such great strength, and he kicked the female slave out of the tent with a single kick.

"How did you do it?" Xun Yun also followed, looking at Shen You in surprise.

Shen You smiled slightly. "The legs are longer and thicker than the hands, so the strength is naturally greater. Although this female slave is good at martial arts, it is all about her strength. She has no rules and does not know how to exert strength. Her feet are vain. It is easy to defeat her."

Xun Yun looked at him, hesitant to speak.

After a while, the female slave regained her strength, slowly got up, knelt in front of Shen You, hugged Shen You's calf with her hands, lowered her head and kissed Shen You's toes lightly, and whispered at the corners of her mouth.

Shen You looked at Xun Yun suspiciously.

Xun Yun spread his hands. "She doesn't speak the Hun language, and I don't understand it."

After a while, the female slave got up and said a few words to Xun Yun.After hearing this, Xun Yun turned around and said to Shen You: "She swore to their god just now, and from now on, you will be the master, and she will never change for the rest of her life."

Shen You smacked his lips, with a reluctant expression on his face.

Xun Yun patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Zizheng, since you have come to the Western Regions, this kind of thing will happen sooner or later, otherwise there is no need to talk about enlightenment. Since she is willing to serve you as the master, you don't have to refuse."

Shen You smiled bitterly and nodded. "Let's talk about what you found out first."

"Yes, but she said, this can only be told to you and me, not to others."

Shen You looked at the female slave, who nodded firmly.Shen You thought for a while, and nodded in agreement.

Judging from the situation just now, the Xianbei people did not have any reservations about Xun Yun, so there was no need for them to be too frank with the Xianbei people.

Shen You waved his hand. "Okay, that's all for today's class, let's continue tomorrow."

"Oh—" the teenagers laughed and scattered away.

Tang Suhe was a little bit reluctant, and refused to leave, but was dragged away by Ke Wu.

Shen You returned to the big tent and ordered someone to find clothes for the slave girl to change into.The female slave took the clothes and walked towards Boyihai in the distance.Shen You was puzzled, but Xun Yun stopped him.

"Leave her alone, these barbarians are not afraid of the cold by nature, even if it is a cold winter, they still want to break the ice and swim in the water."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Hey..." Xun Yun regained a little confidence and smiled smugly. "Actually, it's not that cold. If you have a chance, try it and you'll know. But it's not right now. You have to start practicing in summer, otherwise you will freeze to death."

The two returned to the tent, set up the banquet again, and sat opposite each other.

"I just heard her say that they come from a far away place and have been migrating for hundreds of years. During this period, they met many people and experienced many battles, and the number of people in the tribe became less and less. So many enemies Among them, there are two kinds of people who threaten them the most, one is the Huns, and the other is the Romans, which is what we call the Great Qin people."

"Have they ever met the Romans?"

"That's right, on the north shore of the Sea of ​​Hospitality, there is a Roman military camp." Xun Yun frowned. "I don't know how to tell Kebineng this news. After several defeats, Kebineng has already lost his courage. If he heard that there is a Roman military camp on the northern shore of the Sea of ​​Hospitality, he would definitely not want to advance."

Shen You nodded silently, agreeing with Xun Yun's analysis.

Ke Bi Neng suffered repeated setbacks, and his morale had been so low that it could not be further improved.At this time, let him face the Western power Rome, he is definitely not willing.

The Han army is not afraid, but the number of the Han army is limited. At present, it can only focus on Guishuang, and the possibility of an expedition of thousands of miles is unlikely.

Shen You stretched out his little finger and scratched his nose. "It will take a year or two for the emperor to pacify the Central Plains. Let's understand the situation first. When the Central Plains are peaceful, the emperor will lead his army to march west. Even if he meets the main force of Rome, he will be able to fight."

He thought for a while, and then said: "The Roman merchants didn't mention such important information. It seems that they deliberately concealed it. In the future, we should not only listen to the Roman merchants when we inquire about information. It is best to send our own people there. Otherwise, Gan Ying’s story will repeat itself to you and me. It’s nothing more than being laughed at by those Roman businessmen, and we will be ashamed of future generations if we miss the opportunity to go west.”

Xun Yun's face was a little hot, and he nodded in agreement. "Okay." He thought for a while, and then said, "Zizheng, I have a heartfelt request."

"Changqian, why did you say that?" Shen You said with a smile, "Since you and I are colleagues, we should support each other."

"Can you teach me sword skills?" Xun Yun said solemnly: "Although I practice swords with the great sword master Wang Yue, the time is too short, and I can barely defend myself. If you can teach me sword skills, maybe I can go a step further."

Shen You sized up Xun Yun's eyes, raised his head and laughed loudly.

"Changqian, as long as you want to learn, I am willing to teach you everything."

Chapter 975

When the female slave came back from washing and stood quietly in front of her, both Shen You and Xun Yun felt their eyes light up.

This woman is not only tall and slender, but also fair-skinned.The clothes Shen You gave her were not too small, but her chest was still stretched tightly, and she couldn't hide her temptation.

Seeing that the eyes of the two were straight, the woman was a little proud, lifted the corner of her clothes, and spun around with an elegant posture.

Shen You and Xun Yun felt even more strange and glanced at each other.

This woman was as fierce as a wolf before, but she didn't expect to have such an elegant side, maybe she has some status.

Xun Yun was the interpreter and asked the woman to sit down.

The woman was very well-behaved, sat next to Shen You, took the initiative to lift the jug, and added wine to Shen You and Xun Yun, then looked at Shen You helplessly, and shook the jug in her hand.

This time without Xun Yun's translation, Shen You also understood and nodded in agreement.

The woman was overjoyed, raised her head, poured half a jug of wine into her mouth, gulped it down, and took a deep breath.

Xun Yun was dumbfounded, and Shen You was also a little surprised.

This woman is a good drinker.

"My name is Vivienne, and my father's name is Arthur, the leader of the tribe." The woman put down the wine pot, formally introduced herself to Shen You, and told the history of her tribe.

She originally belonged to a powerful tribe with a total population of nearly 10.Dwell in the far north forests.Since more than 100 years ago, because the population of the tribe has increased, but the forest has become colder and colder, and survival has become difficult, they migrated southward under the leadership of the tribe leader.

They had originally planned to head west, to Rome.

In the memory of their ancestors, their tribe once attacked the city of Rome and looted a lot of property.This time, they want to do it again.

But things went wrong, and they encountered a group of Huns on the way.

The Huns rode horses, were good at archery, and came and went like the wind.They couldn't catch up, and couldn't escape, and they paid huge casualties in the battle.

After fighting with the Huns for more than ten years, they finally defeated this group of Huns by relying on their superiority in numbers, and also learned many skills, such as horseback riding and archery, as well as their language.

There are also many Huns in their tribe.

It was from these Huns that they heard that there was a rich land in the east.So the leader decided to change direction, instead of going west to Rome, he went east to Dahan.

Because the Huns said that the Romans' favorite silk came from the Han.Compared with Rome, the big Han is richer.

After decades of migration, they came to the northern shore of the Sea of ​​Hospitality, where they encountered a Roman camp.

The camp of the Romans was not large, and their strength was not large, that is, more than 1000 people.

But at this time, they were accustomed to looting on horseback, and they were not good at attacking fortifications. They suffered heavy losses when they attacked the Roman camp.In desperation, the remnants had to go all the way east.

Until meeting the Xianbei people.

Xun Yun was in charge of asking questions and translating, while Shen You was in charge of listening and occasionally taking notes.

Vivian's description was very brief, with few details.I don't know if it's been too long, she can't remember clearly, or she refuses to say it.

After Shen You listened, he could only draw a rough road map. He didn't even know how far they had traveled, let alone what tribes there were along the way.

From Vivienne's point of view, it didn't matter who those barbarians were, they were all enemies anyway, and they either killed them or killed them.

And she also has an inexplicable self-confidence, thinking that only red hair is the descendant of God, and the others are either people without faith or bastards.

Including the Romans.

It's just that the Romans are powerful, and she inevitably lacked confidence when she said this.

After saying this, she looked at Shen You's hair curiously, and asked a question: "You all have black hair, just like the Romans. Are you of the same race?"

Xun Yun thought for a while, and said: "Rome is also called Great Qin, and it has some similarities with the Qin people in the western part of our Great Han Dynasty. Maybe it is also a branch of China."

Vivian was dubious.

Xun Yun said again: "However, among our Chinese descendants there are also red-haired ones. You may also be a branch of my Chinese descendants. It's just that you are far away from the Central Plains and have lived in the ice and snow for too long, which has become what you are now."

Vivienne's eyes widened immediately.

In her opinion, she has no similarities with Xun Yun and Shen You.

Besides, in her heart, if the Han people are the same as the Romans, they are all bastards. How could they belong to the same clan as the noble self, and they are also the authentic descendants of the gods.

Xun Yun then told the story of Han Yan, but turned Tang Suhe's conjecture into evidence.

After hearing this, Vivienne was still skeptical, her gray eyes turned around.

Shen You, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly said, "I have a guess."

"What guess?"

"The further south you go, the darker your hair color will be." Shen You said, "When I was in Wu County, I met some businessmen from Jiaozhou. According to them, the barbarians in the south of Jiaozhou all have black hair. Not only their hair is black , even the skin is black."

Xun Yun took a breath. "It seems to make sense. You can see that there are many people with yellow beards and hair among the Xianbei people. According to their wizards, the Xianbei people originated from the Great Xianbei Mountain, which is just north of the Yin Mountain. Judging from the approximate location, it should be north of the Huns. "

The more the two talked, the more reasonable they felt, and they couldn't help getting excited, racking their brains to find more evidence.

Vivian couldn't understand Chinese, so she could only look at Shen You for a while, and Xun Yun for a while.

Xun Yun took the time to briefly tell Vivienne their conclusion.

After hearing Xun Yun's report, Vivienne didn't fully believe it, but her eyes were not as firm as before.

Especially when she saw Xun Yun take out a few books and point to the words on them to prove her statement, she was even more in awe.

The knowledge in the tribe is passed on by word of mouth. She has never seen a book, but she heard the Huns talk about books.In her understanding, only powerful nations have books and wise men who can write.

She has lived for nearly 20 years, and she has not seen a few such wise men, and without exception, they are not old people.

However, the two Han people sitting in front of her were so young, they possessed extensive knowledge only of the old, and the books that were regarded as treasures were thrown around in Xun Yun's hands like ordinary things, which greatly shocked her.

"You... can Han people read?" Vivienne asked timidly.

"Of course." Xun Yun didn't think too much, and replied casually: "We Han people have to study when we are about ten years old, regardless of gender."

Vivienne's eyes widened in shock. "Slaves are okay too?"

Xun Yun thought for a while and said: "Strictly speaking, we big men no longer have slaves, only servants. Although servants also have to do things and serve their masters, masters cannot dispose of them casually, let alone kill people casually."

"Really?" Vivian looked at Shen You, her eyes sparkling.

The corner of Xun Yun's mouth twitched, and he said solemnly: "As far as the law is concerned, it is true. But these laws are only aimed at us Han people, barbarians other than Han people. It seems that there is no such statement. Emphasis on benevolence and righteousness, even if you are not Han Chinese, as long as you are human, we will not treat you like animals. Among other things, we have long since stopped doing such things as burying people."

Chapter 976 The Bird of Fright

Although Vivian didn't take Xun Yun's self-confidence seriously, she was still very lucky.

At least I don't have to worry about being buried.

After inquiring about Vivian's background with Xun Yun, Shen You took Vivian back to his tent.

Without Xun Yun as the interpreter, Shen You could only communicate with Vivian through gestures.Fortunately, Vivienne had been serving Tang Suhe for a few days, so she knew what to do as a maid.Without Shen You's instructions, she tidied up Shen You's somewhat messy tent.

When Tang Suhe came to see Shen You with a Hun female slave who was proficient in Chinese, she frowned and muttered something when she looked at Vivian, who was as docile as a sheep.

"When I was there, why didn't I see her so obedient."

Shen You ignored her complaints, asked the Huns to translate for him, and asked Vivian how many relatives were still in the camp.
