Chapter 36 Mistertin (5)
Half a day later, Lily found Mastra and Tinaik with a can of honey water. She was a blind man. She handed the jar forward and lost her next move. It took a long time before Mastra realized that she wanted to pick it up from her.
"The Hero King has adopted your suggestions," said Lily. "We will send someone to raid tonight. Before that, please go back and report calmly, and say we have the intention to reconcile. Please ask the Sun King to go down from the north of the mountain at night tomorrow to meet me for further talks."
"I know, I need to stabilize him first and make him think he has the will to make peace here, right?" Tinaik nodded and agreed, "We will tell him this."
"Remember, we are on duty in the southeast direction of the hill." Mastra added, "You touch it quietly, don't do it first when you see someone rushing, don't hurt us by mistake. After confirming your identity, I will let you go."
After Mastra, Tinaik and Lily finished explaining, he carried the can of honey water and walked back towards the hill. Lily was left alone, and she seemed to be extremely tired, sighed to the sky with a long and long sigh.
"Look, I'm right. That hero king is just a wife who is in charge of Yan. As soon as his wife said that, he agreed." Tinaik shook at Mastro exaggeratedly, "You're not going to praise your elder brother's eyesight?"
"When did you become my elder brother?"
"Didn't you say it yourself, 'When things are done, I will recognize me as my eldest brother'."
"Isn't that done yet?" Mastra replied, "If we don't say anything else, we have not yet settled for anything we eat tonight."
"You worry about this! We took the honey water back, and then we are a great hero in the Sun King. No one can starve us tonight! When the Sun King is eliminated tonight, we will become a great hero on the opposite side. Without saying anything, we must be delicious and delicious to entertain us! If we come to Aztland, let alone, we are the heroes to get rid of the Sun King. How can there be any opposition in the city-state dare to oppose us? Not to mention our own city-state, even if Tratoani from other city-states see us, he will have to lower his posture! Mastra, good days are waiting for us!"
A gust of wind passed by, bringing a pungent smell of blood, which made Tinak, who was fantasizing, chill. With a slight bad premonition, they carefully touched the Sun King's camp.
The ground was covered with blood. The Aztlans who had no food before they set off got a lot of meat from somewhere, and piled it on the ground. Several soldiers were cutting and dissecting the meat. Dozens of barbecue grills were already set up and the firewood was ready, and it seemed that there would be an extremely sumptuous banquet tonight.
Mastra and Tinaik walked past these soldiers with fear. Whenever Aztland soldiers noticed them, their bodies could not help but tremble. They probably realized where the meat came from, but they still felt a little lucky in their hearts-
Until a head rolled in front of them. This was one of the city-states of Tratoani who was held hostage by the Sun King like them. Although he was dead, his eyes were still wide open, and he looked at Tinak and Mastra in a terrifying way.
Mastra turned his head stiffly to look at Tinak: "Tinak...why should we not be a hero?"
"I feel so too." Tinaikqiang said with a smile, "Let's go out and keep a watch? No one is watching there now. What if the enemy climbs up?"
——"Where are you going?"
As soon as Mastra and Tinak turned around, the voice of the Sun King came from behind. Mastra and Tinak trembled all over, and they turned their bodies back with a forced smile.
"Sun King! We brought back honey water!"
Tinaik snatched the jar that Mastra had in his hand and handed it to the Sun King first. Mastra did not react and was one step late, so she could only continue to watch the Sun King forcibly smile.
"Oh?" The Sun King was quite surprised, "You guys really succeeded?"
"That's it!" This time, Mastra rushed to say, "After my earnest persuasion, they agreed to the request for peace talks!"
"Well," asked the Sun King, "what do they want?"
"The specific matter has not been discussed yet!" Tinaik pushed Mastra aside, "They invited Tratoni to talk to them at the foot of the north mountain tomorrow at night!"
The Sun King slowly scanned Tinaik and Mastra.
"You two are of some use," he said. "It's useless for people from other cities to keep them. I asked them for honey water, but they dared to answer that there was only blood. Just so I like blood more than honey water. So after you left, all those that remained were ordered to be made today's dinner."
These words made Mastra and Tinaik's scalp numb, but they could only respond with a forced smile.
"Before their death, some of them were still yelling that they were Tratony." The Sun King showed a rather sarcastic smile on his face. "They didn't understand that at the moment their city-state was captured by Aztland, they became livestock. The so-called Tratony was just the leader of the flock."
"Tratoani, you must be tired!" Tinak hurriedly stretched forward the jar containing honey water and interrupted the topic, "This is the honey water we brought back for you, please drink some first!"
"No - you drink it yourself." The Sun King replied lightly, "I just said that I actually prefer blood to honey water."
The two of them were already scared and their heads were blank. They could only nod their heads mechanically and laughed:
"Yes, yes, then...thanks to Tratoani for the gift. We'll take it and drink it."
They were eager to leave the slaughterhouse as soon as possible. After thanking him, they hurriedly turned around and wanted to leave.
"Where are you going?" The Sun King's words were in a commanding tone, "I'll let you drink it yourself--drink it in front of me!"
Tinaik, holding honey water, turned tremblingly, watching the Sun King staring at them fiercely, like staring at two thieves who came in to steal things.
"Why not drink?" asked the Sun King sternly, "Is there any reason not to drink?"
"I drink, I drink!"
Fortunately, Lily said that it was just a sleeping potion. Tinak mustered up the courage to drink the honey water inside.
"How do you feel?" Mastra asked worriedly.
Tinaik licked his lips: "It's quite delicious."
The Sun King's face was slightly softer, but still serious.
"You are marching in the southeast these days," he said. "Thank you for your hard work. You should have a good rest before the negotiations begin. I will send someone to take over your position."
