Chapter 50: This is its territory
"Ohβhe's," the daughter blushed.
"Hey, there's something else you can't say!" Grandma stroked her daughter's silky black hair affectionately.
"He, he, he"
"What is he, say quickly, where is he sacred?"
"He, that is, General Li Ling!" said the daughter in her grandmother's arms.
"Is that the captured Han man?" Grandma immediately said, "No, this is definitely not good!"
King Yu Jing walked in and listened to half a sentence, and asked them, "What can't you do?"
His wife pulled him aside and said, "Your precious daughter is going to marry Li Ling, a Han prisoner!"
When he heard this, he asked his daughter, "Daughter, is it true?"
The daughter nodded and said, "Shan Yu Abo, they all agreed!"
"Tell me, how did he agree?" the father asked his daughter gently.
"Abel said that if I could convince him to stay with us, let me marry him. β
"Can you do it?" he asked, surprised.
"I've already talked to the Han man, and he said he agreed to think about it. β
King Yu Jing looked at his daughter's infatuation and said, "This is not a simple matter, you have to think about it!"
"Abba, he's handsome, he's mighty! I'm already captivated by him!" the daughter said earnestly.
Since his daughter joined him two years ago and served as a guide for the Han envoy Su Wu, he could see that his daughter was bent on marrying a capable Han man. I also want my daughter to marry a Han.
Han people are peaceful and love their families. If the daughter had a husband she loved, she would have a safe life, and that was what he wanted. As soon as I remembered that I was a single family, I could not achieve my goal unless I was Hu Han and my relatives.
As for the fact that the daughter wants to marry General Li Ling, the key depends on Li Ling's attitude. He, like his grandfather, General Li Guang, was loyal to the Han Dynasty. He spared his life to protect the lives of hundreds of wounded soldiers, otherwise he would have died.
In fact, the Li family has been loyal and good for generations, wise and brave, loves soldiers and people like sons, and has thrown away the grievances of enemies and enemies, and he admires their family very much. If his daughter can marry Li Ling, he will be relieved even if he is dead. But how do you get there?
The Xiongnu were busy fighting wars, forgetting that the remote Belhai also exiled Su Wu, the envoy of the Han Dynasty, and never sent anyone to visit and send supplies.
Spring came, and the Battelles and their relatives came. Later, Battle's father contacted several friends who had herded together in the past, and they also gathered in this place within a radius of 100 miles, and the place became more lively.
Here is the two major rivers of Ju and Wu three hundred miles away, flowing into the Bel Sea in the edge of the area, the hills are low, there are many wetlands, and the water and grass are abundant. Great place for grazing.
Humans are social animals, and the area here is vast and inhabited is scarce. It is only after the beginning of spring that people come to graze.
For more than three months, although Mei Ga and Su Wu went out together to see the shepherd, and she also confessed her thoughts to him, but his heart was like a stone and he always treated each other politely, and she was really distressed.
In fact, he didn't feel it, but he didn't dare to cross the skin boundary between men and women. He has a family, and maybe he will have to go back to Dahan soon. Although Hu Ren doesn't pay much attention to these, he has to think about Mei Ga, a chivalrous woman.
One day in the summer, Su Wu and Mei Ga were returning from the herdsmen's medical treatment, and when it was dark, they rode their horses and went the wrong way. They walked along the mountain path for more than two hours and came to the boundless sea.
That's what people call Bel Hai. Mei Ga remembered a moment ago:
Several young hostesses from Fangyuan often came to her on horseback to see a doctor. One day, one of them said that her maiden home was east of the Bell Sea.
Mei Ga asked, "Is Bel Hai big?"
"I heard that if a person beats a horse and gallops, he won't be able to go to the end for three months!"
"Not far from here?"
"I haven't been there either. The woman said, "I heard that to get there, you have to find a big river, but there are too many small rivers!"
No wonder, Brother Su and Old Uncle Yiba have been looking for Belhai for many days, as if they are coming in circles, and they have not been found.
Under the polar day, the blue sky and water, the sky and water are the same color, and you can't see the edge. On a large mountain next to the water, it was dark and could not be seen, the birch leaves on the side of the road were motionless, even the birds were sleeping, and the silence around was terrifying.
When Su Wu was young, he accompanied his father to the East China Sea, where there was such an endless water. When they stopped, he pointed to the vast waters and said, "Could it be that we have gone to the East China Sea!"
"What can I do now?"
"Looks like we can't leave tonight!"
"You mean, live here?" she said, horrified.
"Yes, that's the only way!" he said, seeing her frightened look, "and now it's dark, and we can't figure out the situation, whether we can go back or forward." Aren't we still carrying the food given by the shepherd, so let's eat and rest on the spot. β
"In the wilderness?"
"Yes, in the wilderness! There are clean stones at the water's edge. It's safer than where there are people!You trust me!" Su Wu calmly.
She absolutely believed in him. He tied the two horses to a birch tree by the meadow beside them, and the horses began to eat the grass under the tree before they heard the sound.
The two of them ate some food from the shepherd. He took a few dry leaves under the tree, laid them on a large stone slab in the open space on the shore, took off his clothes and spread them on it: "I will sleep here tonight." β
"Then you don't freeze to death?"
"Come and touch it!"
She felt the warmth on the slate. He said, "During the day, the stones are full of yang
Light! Make sure it's not cold at night! You sleep here!"
"And what do you do?"
He took the scepter from his horse and sat down on the edge of the stone: "I am here to watch the horses and keep watch!"
"If you don't sleep, I won't sleep!" she sat beside him.
Suddenly, there was a "whoosh" sound in the sea. Meiga screamed and threw herself into his arms. He felt her tremble, "Don't be afraid! β
Then, a black creature in the water came ashore and crawled towards them.
Mei Ga jumped up in horror: "What is this?"
Su Wu leaned down and looked carefully, it turned out that there were only two front fins and one hind fin, a small round head, shiny small eyes, and a round body. Could it be that this is the seal I've heard of?
Mei Ga clung to his arm and snuggled up to him and looked at it in horror, only to see it crawl over and slowly climb up the stone slab and lie motionless on it.
Hey, so this is its turf!
