The '''Mu Us Village''' was a small village beside the [[Mu Us Desert]] north of the [[Great Wall of China|Great Wall]] as it stood at the time of the [[Qin dynasty]]. The settlement was a regular waypoint for the [[Xiongnu]] along their nomadic route.

==History==
In 215 BCE, Modu's father, [[Touman|Touman Chanyu]], sent him away as a political hostage to the Qin to not only broker peace but also to install his younger brother as heir. However, Modu was freed from imprisonment in [[Yangzhou]] by a ''[[Wei Yu's disciple|youxia]]'' in exchange for his acting as their contact with the Xiongnu. Modu promised the ''youxia'' and their companion [[Yu Ying]] that he would first locate his tribe then rendezvous with them at the Mu Us Village to return their favour. Although the two ''youxia'' were suspicious that he would bother to meet back with them after returning to his tribe, he convinced them that they would never catch up to his roaming tribe if they followed him on his search.<ref name="Nobility of the Xiongnu">''[[Assassin's Creed: Codename Jade]]'' – Nobility of the Xiongnu</ref> 

The ''youxia'' who had rescued him went ahead to Mu Us Village to wait for him. By chance, his tribe was actually settled in that very village at the moment, so the ''youxia'' proceeded right away on their investigation by questioning Xiongnu around the market. Not all of the Xiongnu were pleased by their presence, and one of them [[Pickpocketing|pickpocket]]ed them and lured them into a fight with his older brother, a warrior named [[Huyan Xiong]]. When the ''youxia'' defeated Huyan Xiong, the other Xiongnu were outraged and further violence was only averted thanks to the sudden arrival of Modu, who only then revealed his position to the ''youxia'' along with his rebellion against his father.<ref name="Nobility of the Xiongnu" />

==Behind the scenes==
