Chapter 41
Ren Ning stood outside the tent chatting with You Meng, but did not go in.

He wasn't going in either.

Like You Meng, he knew it in his heart.

I am just a guest passing by to help out, not the owner of the Kailun tribe, so I won't do it for me.

The reason why he stayed to help was that the three patriarchs had helped him.In addition, Kai Lun has always been close to the Yunchui Empire, and it is also his duty as a Yunchui scout to help them survive.

Not long after, the three patriarchs and their party changed tents.

They came to invite the two of them, and Ren Ning and You Meng walked in.

After exchanging pleasantries, the three patriarchs pointed to a certain place in the north of the map.

"The horse thief confessed. He said that if he came here this time, he could pick up the person who was caught last night. He needs to rush here to meet other horse thieves at sunset."

He looked up at Ren Ning: "Brother Ning, what do you think we should do?"

Ren Ning frowned, "This map is too rough. The three patriarchs, please be handy, no one will know where it is."

Cough!

A group of people looked strange and coughed desperately.

A Lun stepped forward to rescue his patriarch, "Brother Ning, the horse thief said that it is about fifty miles northwest of our Kailun."

Ren Ning's brows were still furrowed.

Northwest is a big direction, and it is also a wide area.Like that map, I still can't tell where the detailed location is.

He looked at the sky.

"It's getting late now. With your horsepower, it will take a long time to go back and forth. My horse runs fast. Let's go and see the situation alone."

The Kailun people whose tents were full were very depressed, but what Ren Ning said was true, they were powerless to refute.

Allen was even more worried.

"Brother Ning, this is too dangerous. There are more than 70 horse thieves. If you happen to bump into them head-on, it will be troublesome."

Ren Ning smiled and shook his head: "It's not troublesome. My horse runs fast, and it's easy for a person to get away."

The others became even more depressed immediately.

You can just say that our Kailun horses are all cumbersome.

Ren Ning didn't explain either.

He chuckled and continued, "I think it's better for you to stay in Kailun."

"Based on the abilities of this group of horse thieves, they should come to retaliate. Some of the horse thieves have probably broken up and sneaked around the tribe. If everyone leaves, they will just take the opportunity to come in and kill and set fire."

"This has to be guarded against."

Everyone couldn't help being shocked, and there was a lot of discussion for a while.The little depression before was immediately forgotten.

Ren Ning didn't waste his time talking.

He's going to check on the situation, and people can't control it for so long outside.

Furthermore, Kailun can grow from a small tribe to more than [-] people. The three patriarchs are not idiots, and they can always find ways to protect themselves.

He said a few more words, leading to Zhuifeng who was full and full.Ren Ning asked the three patriarchs for a pot of arrows, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared on the northwest horizon.

With the strength of Zhuifeng's feet, fifty miles is indeed not a long way, and he arrived there in a short time.

Because of the fire and flood, there is a flat and sparse grassland in front of you.There is nothing to hide in a few miles around, and it is clear at a glance.

Ren Ning looked around and saw that it was still early in the sunset, so he drove his horse to the high point in the west.

As he walked, he touched the quiver on his back.Before leaving the fortress, Ren Ning brought three cloud piercing arrows.

In an unavoidable situation, you can launch it into the sky and ask for help from the hidden Yunchui scouts or passing caravans.

But the current situation is unclear, so don't waste it.

On the highest point, condescending, no doubt everywhere.It's just that he alone has become the focus of attention.

But Ren Ning was not afraid at all.

He has binoculars, and he can spot the horse thief before he can see himself clearly.At that time, whether to run or kill can be dealt with calmly.

Time passed quickly, and the sun had already set in the west.

Ren Ning kept looking around with his binoculars, but he didn't see anyone at all.

He waited a while longer.

Until the sun went down completely and the surrounding became quiet, the horse thief was still not found.

Ren Ning didn't wait any longer, and resolutely got on his horse and left.

drive!
His goal continues west!
Benlu tribe!

Kai Lun frowned at such a nasty thing as adding medicine to a water source.

Then kill whoever came up with this dirty idea.

The nearly [-]-mile journey took some time, and when Ren Ning arrived at the Benlu tribe, the sky was already full of stars.

The clattering of hooves just approached.

"who?"

A guard stood up and stopped Ren Ning with his hand.

He had a weapon on his body, but he didn't hold it in his hand, and he even hiccupped.

Ren Ning jumped off the horse and walked over anxiously.

"Brother, I am a caravan guard passing by. Someone in the team has a sudden illness and wants to come to ask for some medicine. I wonder if I can help you find a doctor from the noble tribe?"

After speaking, he stuffed a few copper coins into the other party's hand regardless of reason.

The Benlu tribe has its own settlements, and passing caravans or travelers come to ask for help, and this kind of thing happens from time to time.

The guards were also surprised.

Seeing that Ren Ning looked like Yun Chui, he was about to warn him, but after pinching the copper plate in his hand, he just muttered a few times.

"We don't need copper plates..."

Even so, he happily put the copper coins into his pocket.

Xiliang is in short supply of various minerals, and copper plates are indeed not in circulation.

But Benlu will have Yunchui's caravan passing by from time to time, and copper coins can be traded with the caravan.It's money for them too.

Although he was paid, the guard did not take him in, but called another guard.

The two chattered and said that standing guard at night broke their legs, but there was nothing to gain, and they kept talking non-stop.

Ren Ning took some more copper coins with a pained face and distributed them to them.

"Two brothers, saving lives is like putting out a fire. Please do me a favor. When our caravan passes by here tomorrow morning, we will definitely come in and thank the noble tribe for their life-saving grace."

The eyes of the two guards brightened.

At this time, most of the caravans going east were from Yunchui, and they were in a hurry to go home for the New Year.

Like Kailun, the Benlu tribe is already very close to the border of Yunchui.The caravans returning all the way are eager to return home, and they usually don't come here on purpose when they pass by.

And a while ago, there was a fire and heavy rain, and Benlu was also in bad luck. This time, he was looking forward to exchanging things with the passing caravan for the winter.

"Brother, can your caravan really come over?"

The two guards seemed to have changed their minds, and they became beaming in an instant.

By the light of the fire, they carefully looked at Ren Ning and his horse.

Ren Ning still couldn't see anything, but Chasing the Wind made the eyes of the two guards shine.

good horse!

One in a million horses!
The two know the goods, but they quickly wake up.

A guard can ride such a good horse, what kind of caravan is this?

cough!
Ren Ning coughed.

"This is actually not my horse, but the master's. Our caravan is now in the south, a little distance away from the Benlu tribe. Someone in the caravan is seriously ill, and the master asked me to ride his horse to buy some medicine."

No wonder, it turned out to be the owner's horse.

After listening to Ren Ning's words, the two lost interest.

However, when they heard the word "South", they became anxious again.

To the south of Benlu and further east is the Kailun tribe.

Since they are not welcome here, the caravan will go directly to the Kailun tribe tomorrow morning, since it happens to be on the way.

"Brother, I'm sorry." The two quickly explained with a smile.

"Some time ago, the Yanzhen Fortress sent a large army to the west, and they fought against the Xiliang army a little west of our tribe. Therefore, seeing the Yunchui people, it is inevitable that they will think more."

Uh!
Ren Ning was noncommittal.

He said vaguely, "We are just a passing caravan."

One of them nodded quickly: "We, Benlu, welcome caravans the most."

"Brother, let's go!" The other person turned sideways swiftly, "I'll take you to the best doctor in the tribe."

"Thank you." Ren Ning was overjoyed, and hurriedly cupped his hands to thank, "Our caravan has a doctor, but we just didn't pay attention during the long journey, and we are missing one of the medicines."

He said the name of the medicine.

It is really an ordinary medicinal material, at least the two guards have heard of it.

They looked at each other.

"Brother, if only this medicine is missing, I'll go to the doctor and bring it to you."

He suggested: "Why don't you take this opportunity to talk to our patriarch about the situation of the caravan? Anyway, you will come over tomorrow, we can prepare in advance, and maybe we can trade something at that time."

The other hastened to strike while the iron was hot.

"Although we have few people in Benlu, we are located at the junction of east and west and have rich products. Maybe it can bring you a big business for your caravan."

"This……"

Ren Ning looked up anxiously at the sky, and then at the guard in front of him who looked sincere but did not move.

He didn't struggle for long, "Okay, I'll go visit the patriarch of the noble tribe. But I'm just a guard, I can't be a master..."

The two guards looked at each other proudly, "It's okay, it's okay, brother, just take the words back to the caravan."

Who would believe that he was just an ordinary caravan guard who could ride such a tall horse like his master?

The two didn't believe it.

They summoned others to replace them, and then happily split up.

Half an hour later, Ren Ning took the medicine and disappeared into the night with a smile on his face.
