In a barren land, there are dense forests and wild animals appear from time to time.

A long-toothed moire tiger was lying on the ground, with bloodshot eyes as big as copper bells, staring at the elk in front of it.In order not to startle the snake, this ferocious beast carefully restrained its murderous aura.

It's just that, in the eyes of the Chinese people, the wild beast is extremely dangerous, but in the eyes of the Yue people in Xi'ou, it is a delicious meal.

Behind this ferocious beast, dozens of Yue people with bamboo spears and bamboo bows in their hands are crouching behind this ferocious beast, trying to be the oriole behind.

It's approaching, and all the hunting Yue people are waiting for the moment when this giant tiger pounces on food. This moment is the moment when the giant tiger relaxes its vigilance the most.They could finish this fierce beast without any effort.

The horseshoes neighed.

At the moment when the Yue people were engrossed, the hooves flying from afar destroyed everything completely.

The tiger discovered the original aura, lowered its head and crouched again, and its huge body retreated quietly.

Seeing her big meal slipping away like this, a young girl in the crowd stood up very unhappy and led others to stop the knight.

"who are you?"

The girl gave birth to a pair of big eyes, two small canine teeth, and a round face. When she was angry, she was very cute.

"I am a knight under His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, and I have brought several carts of gifts, and I am here to pay a visit to Yiyu Song, the king of Xiou." The knight is proficient in the dialect of this area, and said it to the people here in local dialect.

"Gift?" The girl's eyes seemed to be shining when she heard the word, and said to the knight, "Where is the gift?"

"It's just one mile behind me, because I couldn't find the way, so I came here to find the way."

"Let them follow us with gifts, and I'll take you to meet the king." The girl patted her small chest, as if to say that if you have a gift, you can talk about anything.

"Thank you, girl." The tall and strong knight clasped his fists and thanked him.

……

Since King Wujiang of Yue failed to attack Chu, Yue was conquered by Qi and Chu.A large number of nobles from the Yue Kingdom were unwilling to be ruled by Chu Qi, and dispersed to the south of the Yangtze River.One of them was exiled to Xiou, today's Guangxi.

Not long after the Kingdom of Yue fell, the descendants of the King of Yue still had the ambition to restore the country, but with the passage of time, their enthusiasm gradually receded, and the Yue people began to get used to the local life.

Unlike Minyue and Ouyue, the land of Xiou is separated by continuous mountains, with high mountains and far waters.Not to mention the land of the Central Plains, even with Chu people, there is very little contact.

Gradually, these Yue people in Xi'ou forgot the smelting technology handed down from their ancestors, the craftsmanship of building cities and repairing houses, and the work of farming... They began to become more and more like local aborigines, fishing They hunt for a living and wear grass skirts made of animal skins.

In the cave, Yixu Song sat on his tiger-skin throne, and at the bottom were a group of important ministers of the Western Ou Kingdom sitting on straw mats.

In the country of Xiou, the etiquette system is chaotic, and there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority.It's just that Wen is headed by the elderly and tall, and Wu is headed by the physically strong and strong.Although Xu Song was nominally the king of Xiou, he was actually the leader of the largest tribe in the area.In addition to the tribe, there are thirty-six barbarian kings. The small ones gather hundreds to thousands of soldiers, and the big ones can gather five or six thousand troops.These thirty-six Dongyi kings were either fearful or respectful, and they all respected Song as the king.

"Great Elder, how is the situation in our tribe this year? How many newborns are there?" Yiyu Song was tall and burly, wearing a tiger skin corset, but was abnormally thick with bulging veins.

The Great Elder mentioned by Yixu Song is a well-known local shaman, who is good at medicine, divination, and herbal medicine, and is very prestigious in the land of Xiou.He also named himself a Chinese named Lu Wen.

Lu Wen said: "There are [-] babies born this year, and more than [-] of them survived. The old man has seen it. I think they will grow into strong warriors in the future."

"En!" Yixu Song nodded, very satisfied with the result.

The hygienic conditions in the land of Xi'ou are very poor, and it is already a good result for newborn babies to survive one out of ten.In tribes with wizards like great elders, this ratio is even higher.

"In our territory, three new warehouses have been built to store the rice millet from the north and the grains tribute from Luoyue. In addition, there are some dried butcher shops and dried fish. I have ordered people to transport them into the warehouse. These three warehouses are [-]% full, enough for our clansmen to live for two or three months."

"It's a pity that we don't have the high farming skills of the northerners. Otherwise, our clansmen wouldn't have to be hungry and full because of the decrease in the number of off-season prey." Yiyu Song said with a sigh.

In the land of Xi'ou, most of the Yue people make a living by fishing and hunting.The so-called fishing and hunting, relying on the sky to eat, is even more unstable than the lifestyle of farming and working.Therefore, Song Song ordered people to build warehouses to store food in case of emergencies.

"Daddy!"

While Yixiong was discussing the situation of the country with everyone, the Huya girl broke in.

Everyone was used to the girl's rude behavior, but they didn't care much about it.

The Huya girl walked up to Yiyu Song, turned around, her long skirt spread out like a beautiful flower.

"Daddy, is it pretty?"

"My buds are the prettiest, don't you think so?" Yiyu Songsheng is rough and has a very violent temper, but for this daughter, he can't get angry at all, but loves him very much.

"Yes, yes, yes!" There was a voice of approval in the cave.

"Your Highness, where did you get this long dress?" Only Lu Wen asked first.

"Ah! It's a gift from the northerners. They said that they are the envoys of Prince Daqin, and they came to pay respects to the father." In the land of Liangyue, news was blocked.Even the princess of Xi'ou is not very clear about the outside world.Because of this, Ya'er didn't even know where Daqin was, let alone Prince Daqin.Girls like Ya'er don't care about military affairs.All she cares about is this expensive pleated skirt with carved patterns.This is a beautiful thing that the girl has never seen in this wild land.

However, Xiou Wang Yiyu Song and the Great Elder Lu Wen were different, they were quite knowledgeable people.They knew what kind of giant Qin the girl was talking about!I also know what kind of a powerful person you are as the prince of Daqin.

"Call the envoy." King Xiou ordered.

Fatty Jin traveled all the way, through thousands of mountains and rivers, and finally arrived at the territory of Xiou Kingdom.Along the way, when he saw the rhino horns that the Yue people in the village casually hung outside the thatched huts, the hardwood used to cut things, and the clam pearls that children played in their hands, Fatty Jin’s sneaky eyes stared at him. Light, I feel as if I have arrived in the legendary Xanadu.These are priceless things!Just the clam pearl in the child's hand, the size of a pigeon egg, is enough to exchange for a decent house outside.

After passing through several villages and the path guarded by the maid, Fatty Jin followed the Yueren who led the way into the cave.

Although the entrance of this cave may seem narrow, there is a unique cave inside.The road twists and turns, and there are many forks. Fatty Jin almost took the wrong path several times.

If someone hadn't led him, Fatty Jin thought to himself, he would have gotten lost in this hole.

"Qin sent Jin Lian to see King Xiou."

Fatty Jin walked into a larger karst cave, the cave was brightly lit, the king of Xiou was sitting at the head, and below him were a group of courtiers from the country of Xiou.They were stout, fierce-looking, and fierce-eyed.

Fatty Jin broke out in a cold sweat. For a moment, he felt as if he had walked into a wolf's den.

"You northerners, there are so many red tapes. Tell me! Why did Crown Prince Qin ask you to come?" Yiyu Song waved his hand and said.
