Chapter 31 Chapter 31: Women's Psychology

Ji Bingyan stopped far away, and said in a deep voice: "In my opinion, it's better for us not to go there." Princess Pipa said: "Why?" Ji Bingyan said: "Looking at the situation, these people are by no means ordinary shepherds." Hu Tiehua frowned and said, "That's right, these people look like a well-disciplined army. Could it be the patrol team sent by the traitors of the Kucha Kingdom?" Princess Pipa said: "They are not from Kucha Kingdom." Hu Tiehua said: "Are you sure?" Princess Pipa smiled and said: "In this desert, there are at least a dozen different tribes. In your eyes, these people may all be similar, but I can tell their differences with just one glance."

Chu Liuxiang said: "In your opinion, who are these people?" Princess Pipa smiled and said, "Even if they are robbers, we don't need to be afraid of them, do we?" Hu Tiehua responded immediately: "Yes, we just want to ask them to buy some pots of water and some camels. If they are unreasonable and refuse to sell them, we can simply grab them." Ji Bingyan sneered and said, "It's easy for you to say." Hu Tiehua said with a smile: "This is very easy, isn't it?" Ji Bingyan said: "Didn't you see how they hold their knives? How they walk? Didn't you see that they set up the tent in a short time, set up the sentries, and they were in order, and the camels didn't panic?"

Hu Tiehua said with a smile: "I'm not blind, how can I not see." Ji Bingyan said: "Since you have seen it, you should know that these people on the other side are all experienced and tempered fighters, and they are by no means comparable to ordinary reckless bandits. We only have eight people here, and three of them have been severely injured and disabled. , At least two people must be separated to protect them..." He stared at Hu Tiehua, and said in a deep voice: "So our side can really make a move, but there are only three people. With the power of three people, if we want to capture the camel horse among hundreds of them who have experienced many battles , how sure do you think it is?"

Hu Tiehua rubbed her nose and said, "Although I'm not too sure, it's at least 50% to 60%!" Ji Bingyan sternly said: "You are only 50% sure, do you want to take a chance?" Hu Tiehua said with a smile: "I'm 10 to 20 percent sure of things, I've tried them all, and no one can make my head move." Ji Bingyan said coldly: "That's your luck, but now is not the time for us to try our luck." Chu Liuxiang sighed, and said: "That's right, our strength is very weak now, but there are still many things to do, we must not let anyone get hurt again, so as long as there is any danger in this matter, we can't do it. "

Ji Bingyan said: "In normal times, even if you had to bump your head against a rock to compare who is harder, no one would care about you, but now, your life is very useful. If it is for a few camels, a few The jug of wine will ruin your life, even if you think it's nothing, I think it's not worth it." Chu Liuxiang said: "What's more, even if you and I are lucky enough to succeed, these people will definitely be chasing after us. We already have enough enemies, if we add this group of people, it will be really unbearable." Hu Tiehua smiled and said: "From your point of view, these people should not be offended anyway, right?"

Ji Bingyan said: "Exactly." Hu Tiehua rolled his eyes and said, "But what if they want to offend us?" Out of the corner of Chu Liuxiang's eyes, he saw five or six people walking towards them, and he couldn't help sighing secretly, but still with a smile on his face, he said word by word: "Even if they want to offend us, we can only bear with it." There were five people walking over, all of them were wrapped in thick windcloaks, and their heads were tied with blue turbans. Their dark faces had been honed by the wind, frost and scorching sun to be rougher than sandstone, but their eyes were as sharp as eagles. , a pair of protruding muscles and bones, holding the handle of the knife tightly, as stable and solid as a rock.

Although they were wearing loose clothes, their movements were brisk and vigorous. When Chu Liuxiang looked at them, they had already walked in front of them. At first, there was a person with a green beard and a pair of shining eyes, with a kind of blue color like will-o'-the-wisp, and when he turned around on everyone's face, he fixed it on Chu Liuxiang's face without even an instant. Eight hundred people were all dressed in the same attire, and he didn't have to take a second look to recognize who was the leader. Chu Liuxiang saluted with a smile, and said, "Qigu Ata."

He babbled a lot, talking about the usual greetings that the herdsmen in the desert greet when they meet each other. He practiced hard for a long time, and he felt that his speech was already very standard. Unexpectedly, this person seemed to be unable to understand a word, stared at him for a while, and suddenly said: "Where do you come from? Where are you going?" Instead, he spoke standard official language. Chu Liuxiang could only smile wryly, and said: "I'm from Zhangjiakou, I came here to do some small business, but I don't know the place well, not only lost the camels and horses, but also injured people, so..."

He kept talking, the man just watched indifferently, he neither talked back nor came to argue, but Chu Liuxiang couldn't continue talking. He himself found it hard to believe what he said. The eight of them were male and female, ugly and handsome, but no matter who looked at them, they would not believe that one of them was a businessman. Chu Liuxiang sighed, and said: "To be honest, the inferiors are all from the martial arts of the Central Plains. The purpose of leaving the customs this time is to find three friends, but unexpectedly, there are unexpected problems and encountered some troubles."

Everything he said this time was the truth, but these people still just looked at him coldly, still unwilling to believe a single word. The sharp eyes of the green beard turned to them again, and said in a deep voice, "What trouble are you all encountering?" Chu Liuxiang said: "This matter is a long story, and it has nothing to do with you..." Qingbeard said sharply: "How do you know that it has nothing to do with us? This place is thousands of miles away, no matter where, no matter what happens, maybe it has something to do with us." Chu Liuxiang said: "Oh... but I don't know who you are? It's..."

Qingbeard shouted: "Now I'm asking you, not you asking me." Chu Liuxiang already found that this person was very difficult to deal with, and couldn't help but started touching his nose. This was his old problem, and Hu Tiehua was also infected by him. Qingbeard suddenly pointed at Yidianhong and Qu Wurong, and said sharply: "These two were injured not long ago, who hurt them?" Hu Tiehua lost his composure for a long time, and said loudly: "His hand was accidentally cut by me." Qingbeard smiled coldly, and said: "Your Excellency has both eyes, how could you accidentally cut off your friend's hand? I'm afraid even a three-year-old boy can't believe it." Hu Tiehua said angrily: "I don't care if you believe it or not? As long as I'm telling the truth, you deserve it if you don't believe it." Qingbeard said sharply: "How can you win people's trust if you don't agree with what you said?" He suddenly waved his hand and shouted: "Come on, search them!" Amidst the shouts, the four big men behind him had already dodged. Hu Tiehua turned blue with anger, looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "You want to search me? I have never been searched in my life!" Chu Liuxiang suddenly squeezed his hand heavily, and said with a smile: "No matter what happens, there is always a first time." Hu Tiehua whispered: "Can you bear this breath?" Chu Liuxiang just smiled and didn't say anything. Hu Tiehua followed his eyes and looked over, only to find that when they were talking, dozens of big men had surrounded them. Hu Tiehua also laughed suddenly, and said: "If Chu Liuxiang can bear it, why can't Hu Tiehua not bear it?" Ji Bingyan also laughed, and said with a smile: "The child has finally grown up, which is really gratifying." The three of them patted their clothes and laughed at the same time: "Come and search!" Chu Liuxiang went on to say: "Not only do I have nothing, but I also have nothing in my pocket. After you have searched it, you will definitely feel very disappointed." Unexpectedly, the four people who had just walked over had stopped at this moment, and the hands of the green beard were raised high, but they never fell down. Chu Liuxiang just felt a little strange, and the green beard suddenly said: "Your Excellency is really empty? Don't you even have a single black pearl?" After saying these words, Chu Liuxiang's eyes lit up immediately. Hu Tiehua only heard the word "pearl", and suddenly remembered that there was still a "star of bliss" in the bag, immediately put down his hands, and said loudly: "What are you looking for and what are you thinking?" Qingbeard laughed, and said: "Even if the villain is so courageous, he wouldn't dare to hit Chu Xiangshuai on his head." Hu Tiehua was startled, and said: "Do you recognize him? Is he really so famous?" The big green beard didn't answer, but bowed down to Chu Liuxiang, and said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, but I hope Chu Xiang is handsome and forgive the villain for being rude." Chu Liuxiang hurried to help him, and asked, "You belong to Black Pearl..." Green beard said: "If the little prince can see that Chu Xiangshuai is safe and sound, he must not know how happy he is." Everyone heard that this person is one of Heizhu's subordinates, and they couldn't find him through iron shoes, but it took no effort to find him, they couldn't help being surprised and happy. Only Qingbeard sighed, and continued: "It's a pity that although Chu Xiangshuai has arrived here, the little prince has already entered the customs..." Chu Liuxiang lost his voice and said, "Entry? When did he enter?" The green beard said: "The little prince was afraid that Chu Xiangshuai would be in danger, so many days ago, he entered the pass to find out about Chu Xiangshuai." Chu Liuxiang couldn't help showing a look of surprise on her face, and said, "He's afraid that I'm in danger? He's going to check on my news?" The green beard said: "When the little prince saw that pearl horse returning empty-handed, he believed that Xiang Shuai must be in danger, and he couldn't even wait for an hour and a half, so he hurried to go immediately." He suddenly smiled mysteriously, and said: "The little prince's concern for Chu Xiangshuai, don't you know Xiangshuai?" Chu Liuxiang was already stunned when he heard it, and didn't pay attention to the meaning of his words. After pondering for a while, he sighed and said with a wry smile: "That horse is really a god horse, how can ordinary people control it? I should have thought it would throw off the bridle and come back to find its old owner." Hu Tiehua couldn't help but said: "So many of us couldn't find it, so did a horse find it first?" The green beard said: "In the desert, who doesn't know that the pearl horse is the mount of the young prince. No matter who sees it, they will send it back to the young prince." He smiled proudly, and continued: "Although there are many villains and bandits in the desert, within thousands of miles, who would dare to take the idea of ​​the little prince's love of horses? Don't dare to mess with us." When "Stone Guanyin" was mentioned, everyone's faces changed. Qingbeard smiled and continued: "Everyone may not know, apart from us old prince's old subordinates, there are many people in the desert who are willing to die for the young prince. Even though Shi Guanyin's martial arts are powerful, if she offends the young prince Prince, no matter what you want to do here in the future, I'm afraid it will be very difficult." Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and said, "It seems that the words 'King of the Desert' really belong to the name." Hu Tiehua suddenly said: "So, if we rode that pearl horse here, wouldn't we have met your little prince already?" Qingbeard sighed: "If you all come riding that pearl horse, the little prince will not be in a hurry. He knows that Xiangshuai also loves this horse very much, so he believes that if Xiangshuai is safe, he will never let it go." It came back empty-handed." Hu Tiehua glared at Ji Bingyan, and said leisurely: "This is called being clever but being misled by cleverness, and being clever but self-defeating. It can be seen from this that adults sometimes do things that are not as good as children." Ji Bingyan had no expression on her face, she just looked at the green beard coldly, and said coldly: "Listen to you, your little prince really cares about Chu Liuxiang?" But the mysterious smile appeared on the face of the green beard, and said: "I really care about it." Ji Bingyan sternly said: "Then why did he kidnap Chu Liuxiang's relatives?" Qingbeard was stunned, and said: "Abduct Chu Xiangshuai's relatives? How can such a thing happen? Your Excellency may have misunderstood." His expression was solemn, and it didn't seem that he was half false. Chu Liuxiang turned pale and said, "Didn't Rong'er and the others come here?" Qingbeard pondered and said: "Rong'er...Xiang Shuai said, but a Miss Su, a Miss Li, and a..." Before he finished speaking, Chu Liuxiang said anxiously: "It's them, have you seen them? Where are they now?" Green beard said: "Miss Su and the others naturally went to the customs with the young prince." Chu Liuxiang said: "They... are they all okay?" Qingbeard smiled and said: "These three girls are all smart, lively, and beautiful, and they always have sweet smiles on their faces, as if they never know what is sad in the world, and they make people feel all the sorrows. Forget." He suddenly looked at Ji Bingyan, and said: "But how can you say that they were kidnapped by the little prince?" Ji Bingyan was also a little confused at this time, couldn't help but touched her nose, and said, "Isn't it?" Green beard smiled and said: "Of course not, the three of them are the honored guests of the little prince, and they are extremely close, the four of them are reluctant to part even when they are sleeping, so I don't know how they have so much to talk about." After saying this, everyone was stunned again, Chu Liuxiang, Ji Bingyan, and Hu Tiehua looked at each other, unable to say a word. After a while, Hu Tiehua finally asked tentatively: "You said they slept together?" Qingbeard smiled and said: "If you go out, you will share the car, and if you lie down, you will share the same bed." Hu Tiehua sighed, looked at Chu Liuxiang with a wry smile and said, "It seems that this little prince is quite capable." Chu Liuxiang felt bitterness in her mouth and didn't know what to say. Suddenly Princess Pipa said: "You little lord, are you a man? Or a woman?" The green beard seemed to be startled, and said with a smile: "Of course it's a woman, but the old prince doesn't have a young master, so he dressed her up as a boy since she was a child, and even the little people have to address her as the little prince... Xiang Shuai doesn't know?" Chu Liuxiang could only touch his nose desperately, Hu Tiehua couldn't help laughing, only Princess Pipa, with a very ugly face, stared at Chu Liuxiang and said: "It seems that there are quite a few people who care about you." The wind outside the tent was as cold as a knife, but inside the tent was as warm as spring. Coupled with the aroma of barbecue and goat's milk, Hu Tiehua almost forgot all his troubles. But Chu Liuxiang was not so happy. He just felt that there were more and more problems. Ji Bingyan stared at him for a while, and couldn't help but said: "What's going on? Have you figured it out now?" Chu Liuxiang smiled bitterly and said, "I still don't quite understand." Hu Tiehua smiled and said: "You'd better go through this matter from beginning to end, and repeat it carefully, so that we can all solve it for you." Chu Liuxiang sighed and said, "When this incident started, I was the one who asked Heizhuzhu to inform Rong'er, telling her to go back quickly, because at that time I might be killed at any time, and I really had no energy left to take care of her." Hu Tiehua laughed and said: "It seems that this Black Pearl not only took your words with you, but also personally escorted Rong'er back. The two of them chatted along the way and became friends." Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Looking at the situation, I'm afraid that's exactly the case." Hu Tiehua said: "But how can this Black Pearl persuade Rong'er and the others to follow her out of the customs together? What is she doing this for? Is it just to make you anxious?" Chu Liuxiang frowned and said: "This is exactly what I can't figure out, Rong'er and the others are usually very obedient..." Princess Pipa suddenly sneered and said: "Although you always run out, they are always waiting for you at home, so you think they should be waiting for you at home, don't you?" Chu Liuxiang sighed, and said, "They have nowhere to go." Princess Pipa said: "How do you know they have nowhere to go? Even if they are your watchdogs, they will go for a drive sometimes..." She curled her lips and said with a sneer: "If I were Rong'er, knowing that you are so reassuring to me, I would think of a way to make you anxious. I have waited for you dozens of times, hundreds of times, and I should let you Wait for me once." Hu Tiehua slapped her hands loudly, and said loudly: "That's right, after all, only women understand what women worry about. If you let a woman know that you are very assured of her, she will find a way to torture you." , even if she is sincerely devoted to you, she still doesn't want you to think so." Princess Pipa said coldly: "It's just because women know that men are cheap. If a man knows that there is a girl who has given up on him, he will think that the girl is boring, and he will immediately find someone else." Hu Tiehua laughed loudly and said: "Although this is said harshly, it is not completely unreasonable." Chu Liuxiang smiled and said: "So, they are going out with Heizhu this time, do they just want me to be in a hurry?" Hu Tiehua said with a smile: "Even if they didn't mean it originally, but they were persuaded to be moved by Heizhuzhu's fire next to them." Chu Liuxiang said: "But why did Heizhu persuade them?" Princess Pipa pursed her lips again, and said with a sneer, "You still don't understand this truth?" Chu Liuxiang said: "I don't understand." Princess Pipa turned her head away from him, and said coldly: "Those who don't understand what they say must understand it very well in their hearts." Hu Tiehua smiled and said, "But I really don't understand." Princess Pipa said: "Although she doesn't know that Hei Zhu is a woman, but Hei Zhu knows that he is a man, right?" Hu Tiehua smiled and said: "There is no need to doubt this point. Except for the female orangutan, there is no female who is as hairy as him." Princess Pipa couldn't help a "puchi" smile, but immediately straightened her face again, and said with a sneer: "How many men are there in the world who are as handsome and unrestrained as him? Maybe the heart of the black pearl has long been like peeling Peeled it out like an egg and gave it to him, but our sentimental and flirtatious playboy has become stupid and doesn't know it at all."
