Chapter 621, Flowers
In this vast grassland, it was extremely common for nomadic tribes to turn against each other, and even if civilization had been severed due to calamities, it would be difficult to change the attributes of the peoples on this soil.
The big tribes set up the royal court, sealed the right and left wise kings, and then divided some small kings, so as to complete the control of the grassland.
Only this grassland was so big that every now and then a true lord would be born and overthrow the original bastion of power.
Hassan felt that he was witnessing all of this, and when he heard the howling of the wolf he was no longer afraid, but instead had some excitement in his heart.
The power displayed by his own master had already surpassed the level of all the other male lords in this grassland, it was the power of a god.
After the wolves were dispersed by Yan Liu Yuan, the horses and oxen left in the battlefield were dragged back to the tribe by Hassan and the others, the mutated horses were the main means of transportation in the grasslands, while the oxen were the tools for pulling supplies.
When the wolves attacked the group, they even specifically refrained from harming the horses and cattle at Yan Liuyuan’s behest, which was also like a miracle in Hassan’s eyes.
After all, wolves were meant to eat meat, and to make them give up the prey in their mouths, who else but a god could do it?
On the way back, Yan Liu Yuan remained silent until she was about to return to the tribe when Sister Xiaoyu suddenly said, “I shouldn’t have contradicted your order in front of the others.”
Sister Xiaoyu looked a little gloomy, she followed Yan Liuyuan to the grassland and knew very well what Yan Liuyuan wanted to do, unifying the grassland was just the first step.
She couldn’t stop Yan Liuyuan from doing this, nor did she have any intention of doing so, much less any reason to do so.
She simply watched all this silently behind Yan Liuyuan’s back.
Sister Xiaoyu knew very well that the young man beside her might not be her Six Yuan brother anymore, but the head of a tribe, and in the future, the head of many tribes, and would eventually set up his own royal court and control the entire grassland.
Therefore, she might not be able to say anything to Yan Liu Yuan as freely as she did before.
It was just …… that she didn’t want to watch this previously innocent teenager fall into the abyss.
However, after she finished speaking, Yan Liuyuan suddenly spread his face and smiled, “Sister Xiaoyu, thanks to you.”
The sky was blowing a gale again, blowing the robes of Yan Liuyuan and Sister Xiaoyu in a hunting manner, Yan Liuyuan continued in the wind, “Actually sometimes I really wish my brother was still here as well, it should be easier to unify the grasslands if it was him. But I know he doesn’t have this idea, he has never been an ambitious person, he just wants to protect the people around him.”
Sister Xiaoyu listened quietly.
“Whether my brother admits it or not, he is a good man in my heart, in fact, Sister Xiaoyu you were right to stop me today, I was just thinking just now that if my brother was still alive, he would surely be disgusted with this tyrannical me,” Yan Liuyuan sighed.
“That won’t happen,” Sister Xiaoyu shook her head and said softly, “You’re the most important person to Xiaosu, even if you fall into the abyss, he’ll still pull you out.”
“Uh-huh.”
Sister Xiaoyu was very important to Yan Liuyuan, only with Sister Xiaoyu by his side would he be able to continue to stay awake.
That day, Yan Liuyuan stood on top of a grassy knoll looking out to the south, from dusk to night, from night to dawn.
Hassan came out of his tent several times and looked at his master’s back from afar, always feeling that his master was a bit lonely.
In the morning, when Yan Liuyuan returned to his tent, he suddenly saw a young girl sitting on her knees in his tent.
Yan Liu Yuan was puzzled: “Are you Hassan’s daughter?”
The girl had a hint of timidity, “Abba asked me to serve you.”
Yan Liu Yuan smiled helplessly, “Go out, I have arms and legs, I don’t need anyone to serve me, by the way, what’s your name?”
“Qiqig,” the little girl replied timidly, “meaning flower.”
“How old?” Yan Liuyuan asked again.
“Thirteen years old, three months to go and I’ll be fourteen,” Qiqige replied.
Yan Liu Yuan nodded, “Okay I’ve remembered all that, now go find your amah.”
But just as Yan Liu Yuan was about to lie down and rest, Qiqige ran out and brought in a basin of hot water and a piece of coarse cotton cloth.
She percolated the coarse cotton cloth with hot water and wanted to wipe Yan Liu Yuan’s face, Yan Liu Yuan curiously said, “Aren’t you afraid of me?”
“Abba said that you are the god that guards the tribe, so there is no need to be afraid,” Qiqiqi said.
Yan Liuyuan froze, not because Hassan said he was a god, but because of the word guardian.
He slowed his tone, “I’m not a god, just an ordinary man, like you.”
“But you can command the wolves, and you can command the eagles in the sky,” said Kikiq, “And the girls in the tribe …… all say you’re very good looking …… ”
When she said the second half of the sentence, Qiqige’s voice got smaller and smaller.
Yan Liuyuan was indeed not quite the same as the men here, he didn’t have rough skin that had been exposed to UV rays for a long time, and his looks were more ‘refined’.
That was why so many girls in the tribe were saying that probably only a god would look this good.
Sister Xiaoyu also told Yan Liuyuan about this, and Yan Liuyuan thought to himself how long it has been since these people on the grasslands have seen any Central Plains people ……
Qiqige saw Yan Liuyuan delayed to speak, some anxious: “I can comb your hair, but also can wash your clothes and cook for you, Abba let me live in your tent in the future, saying …… that I will be your person in the future, and if you want to throw me out, I will be very ashamed. ”
Yan Liuyuan was stunned for a long time, what customs are these?
He lost his smile, “Then you comb my hair, but you don’t have to stay in my tent every day, in the morning time you beat the hot water over, then go back to your ama.”
“Don’t you need to come over at night ……,” Qiqiqi asked in a low voice, to be honest, she was not prepared for it either.
“No need to come over,” Yan Liuyuan said with a smile.
At this time, Qiqige sat behind Yan Liuyuan and took a hot and wet towel to wipe his hair, careful and meticulous.
After a moment of silence, she couldn’t help but speak again, ”You’re not as dangerous as you thought, they all said yesterday that you drove the wolves to kill so many people, more enemies than the people of our tribe. But Sister Xiaoyu said that you are very nice and told us not to be afraid of you.”
Before that, Qiqig lied, when Hassan had asked her to come to Yan Liuyuan’s tent, she was indeed a bit scared to come.
But now it was true that she was not afraid.
Yan Liu Yuan did not respond to Qiqi Ge, while Qiqi Ge continued to chirp, “If I only have to come over every morning to comb your hair, then I can still go with the others during the day to do the gathering work.”
Yan Liuyuan was puzzled, “Gathering?”
“It means going out to collect mushrooms that can be eaten,” Qiqige explained, “Otherwise you can only drink milk or starve, Abba said that a lot of cows and goats died in the blizzard, so you can’t eat them anymore, you have to wait until next year when they finish having their babies.”
