Chapter 250:1 Admit Defeat
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Ying didn’t care if he doubted his existence, because even if he racked his brains totally, he still wouldn’t be able to figure out what a battleship was.
Therefore, as long as she said something with enough certainty, it was sufficient to make him doubt his existence!
“How long will it take to walk through this canyon?”
Zhang Nuo recovered himself and replied, “This road is quite smooth. We should be able to reach before dark.”
After saying that, he realized that he was riding on the horse. He flipped over and jumped off the old horse. “City Lord Su, you go on the horse. 1’11 lead the horse.”
Su Ying didn’t turn down his offer. After handing him the reins, she leaped onto the horse. Although the ride on the horse carriage was bumpy, it was still more comfortable to ride a carriage in this snowy environment. If it wasn’t for the fact that this kid understood the terrain here too well, she wouldn’t have put the horse carriage away in her interspatial store.
The mountain path of the canyon was like a winding snake. It was not tiring to walk, but it seemed to be endless.
Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from beneath their feet.
Rumble! Rumble!
The tremors became increasingly more violent.
Su Ying’s eyes narrowed. Zhang Nuo’s expression changed instantly. He quickly scanned his surroundings before pulling the horse toward the upper reaches of the canyon. Fortunately, the slopes of these canyons were relatively gentle, and there was a relatively flat section at the bottom. Although the snow and ice were a little slippery, they were able to stabilize themselves by lying on their sides. However, the old horse was unable to stand firmly.
The two of them raised their heads and saw a dark mass of bisons charging toward them.
When Su Ying saw that the old horse was about to slide down, she could only grit her teeth and grab onto it. However, the snow surface was too slippery. The instant Su Ying grabbed the horse, her body began sliding down along with the old horse. Helpless, she could only let go.
The old horse was like a grain of sand falling into a dark sea of sand, vanishing in an instant.
There wasn’t even a cry of anguish.
Those bisons rushed past like a rapid river, instantly filling up the canyon.
Su Ying watched as Zhang Nuo’s body gradually slid down. She took out a dagger from her body and stabbed it firmly against the stone wall, allowing him to hold on tightly to stabilize his body.
After an unknown period of time, all the bisons finally ran past.
Su Ying made sure that there were no more bisons behind before she released her grip and leaped off the stone wall. The old horse that had slipped down just now had already been trampled into meat paste.
There were at least a few thousand bisons running past just now. The number was really quite shocking.
Su Ying turned around and wanted to go after the bisons. That was good, solid meat!
“City Lord Su, where are you going?”
“I’m going after the bisons!”
Zhang Nuo also jumped down from the stone wall. “City Lord Su, there’s no need to go after them. Those creatures will return by themselves before dark.” Su Ying stopped in her tracks. “What do you mean? Return? Return where?” Zhang Nuo dusted the snow off his body and said, “Those are the mountain yaks raised by the Shepherd Tribe.”
Su Ying was stupefied.
“They are raised by humans?”
Zhang Nuo nodded as he replied, “Yes. They are all raised by the people of the tribe.”
Su Ying frowned. She felt that she still didn’t know enough about animals that were far more primitive than her era. “Why do they look somewhat different from other bisons?”
“That’s right. These mountain yaks are indeed different from other wild oxen. They are stronger and more ferocious. Their personality is the same as the people of the Shepherd Tribe.”
Whoo hoo hoo hoo…
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves rang out from behind, followed by numerous shouts.
Su Ying and Zhang Nuo turned around and saw a dozen or so burly men riding in their direction on strong, sturdy horses.
They wore thick woolen hats on their heads and thick coats with overlapping lapels on their bodies. Their nose bridges were high and their eyes were deep-set. However, their tanned skin color was uniformly dark. The dark skin tone was more like a dark yellow wheat color, making them look especially masculine.
Zhang Nuo subconsciously came to Su Ying’s side and whispered, “City Lord Su, they are from the Shepherd Tribe.”
The people from the Shepherd Tribe did not expect to see people in this place. They stared at the two of them with curiosity and wariness.
“Who are you?”
Su Ying raised her eyebrows. His accent was somewhat similar to the official language of the Nan State, but the intonation seemed to be different. However, she could still understand what he said.
Zhang Nuo said cautiously, “Brother, I’m Zhang Nuo who passed by here two years ago. Do you still remember me?”
Upon hearing his words, the other party sized him up and finally shook his head. “I don’t remember.”
“I lost my footing in the canyon and accidentally broke my leg. 1 stayed at Qu Zhen’s house for a while.”
When he heard this, a young man with a black earring on one ear became furious. “It’s you. It’s you who made Qu Zhen unwilling to marry me. I’m going to defeat you!”
The young man dismounted and walked up to Zhang Nuo.
The rest of the people rode their horses and surrounded the two of them, forming an encirclement.
The young man glared at Zhang Nuo angrily. “I want to duel with you.”
These people looked very tall, but Su Ying didn’t expect them to be so tall. When that fellow stood in front of Zhang Nuo, he was at least half a head taller than him.
Su Ying looked at Zhang Nuo and asked, “What’s going on?”
Zhang Nuo appeared a little helpless. “It’s all a misunderstanding…”
“So you really stole someone else’s sweetheart.”
Zhang Nuo felt even more helpless. “It’s really just a misunderstanding.”
“Then you go fight him first. Call me if you can’t handle him.” Su Ying knew that there was a tribe that liked to fight one-on-one. Since the people on the horses didn’t move, she would just watch the show. Zhang Nuo had been running around the northern wilderness all these years, so it was impossible that he didn’t have the ability to protect himself at all.
Zhang Nuo didn’t have any intention of retreating. After seeing Su Ying back away to a safe place, he got into position and prepared to fight.
Su Ying stood at the edge of the encirclement.
Roar! The young man roared and stomped the ground with both his feet before lunging at Zhang Nuo.
Zhang Nuo was not to be outdone and had already put up a defensive stance.
The two of them soon got entangled.
Zhang Nuo might not be as big-sized as the young man, but he was not completely defenseless.
The two of them fought for a while, but it was not exactly a fight. It was more like they were wrestling because the other party had yet to throw a punch at Zhang Nuo.
“Grab his belt from the back, lean back quickly, and then quickly ram into his body to loosen his footing from his territory. After that, grab the belt on his side and throw him out!”
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Su Ying could already feel the tremors beneath her feet. The yaks had returned, so it was best to end the fight as soon as possible.
Zhang Nuo subconsciously obeyed Su Ying’s instructions. He lifted the man up abruptly and flung him out. Before the man could react, he pounced on him and pinned him to the ground.
“Argh!”
The young man roared and struggled to stand up again. However, Zhang Nuo was pressing down on his vital parts firmly. If he tried to stand up forcefully, it would cause great damage to his body.
“Admit defeat? Do you admit defeat?” Zhang Nuo exerted practically every ounce of strength in his body.
The young man still wanted to struggle, but after trying a few times, he still could not get up from the ground. In the end, he roared resentfully and lay on the ground without moving.
“I admit defeat..”
