Chapter 215: Back to Hudi

Seeing the old man's happy appearance, Hai'er explained his intention: "Grandpa, my father is very fond of these seven mountains where you live!"

"Does he want to live here?"

"It's my uncle who wants to stay here. He is the son of an old shaman. ”

"Is it the Fuqu Shaman who used to be active near Jiuyuan, Hebei?"

"Yes! Many years ago, my grandfather was forced to die in the army. Hai'er was sad.

"What a good man's fate is! If this is the case, we are also short of Langzhong here, and this can be done!" said the old man, "I think it is no problem, the village master is my son." ”

"Then thank you grandfather!"

They stayed here for two days and looked around, and now there are nearly 20 families in Qijiashan. The climate here is better than in the clouds, and the air is mild and humid. Winter wheat can also be grown.

At the recommendation of the old man, they sat down with the village owner and talked about their ideas, listened to each other's opinions, and after reaching an agreement, in order to facilitate future entry and exit, they left some food money for the old man and went along the road out of the mountain pointed out by the old man.

It's just that there's snow on the top of the surrounding hills, and the snow has melted elsewhere. It took them only three hours to walk through the hidden passages of the sheep's intestines, and in one day they ran out of the mountains and into the mounds and dunes.

The three of them galloped on horseback, and after three hours, they entered the desert area. The snow in the desert is melting, but it doesn't seem like a problem to get around.

Kent looked at the way they used to do business, and went around the road outside the mountains and between the desert and said, "It is amazing that we have taken this shortcut, and we have traveled three to forty percent of the distance from the clouds to Hara and the forest!"

Hu Qian continued: "This place that my uncle said is really a good place outside the world!"

"If my family lives here in the future, it will be much easier for the family to see each other!" said Hai'er, "I hope our ideas will come true!"

They made a mark at the exit that only they knew, and walked back along the road they came, only

It took less than three days to cross two mountains and return to Yunzhong County.

After the three of them returned to the clouds, they were soon ready to drive home with a caravan carrying medicinal herbs. They rode horses, drove a procession of more than a dozen camels out of the clouds, and marched along the faint road leading to the surrendered city. Three days later, they came to the north side of the mountain and marched northeast along the mountain road.

There are no villages, no post stations and no people on this road, only the biting cold wind outside the plug and the barren ditches and barren sand beams that pass into the desert, thanks to the layers of unmelted snow covering the ground, otherwise the yellow sand is really difficult to walk.

Wearing fur hats and fur robes, they rode on horses and followed the caravan slowly, and felt chills and stiff limbs, so they came down and led the horses and the caravan against the wind. Half a moon later, when it was dark, they came to the place where they had come out of Qijia Mountain before.

They pitched their tents behind a large hill, sheltered from the wind, and brought their camels and horses to sheltered from the wind. The torch was lit and the pot of water was boiled, and he ate the dry food he brought. After feeding the horses, adding some forage to the camels, they went into the tent and lay down on a damp wolfskin mat and covered with a sheepskin quilt.

Kent asked, "Brother Haier, how long have you been gone back to Dahan with your grandma?"

"I walked from Jiankun to Jiuquan for more than a month, from Jiuquan to Chang'an there is a post station, and it took more than a month for Xiaoxing to stay overnight. It took nearly three months. Hale said.

"You must have suffered a lot, right?" asked Hu Qian.

"My grandma is very courageous, she disguises herself as a man, and although she encounters many things along the way, everything is solved by her. With her in front of her, Wei Yi and I were just obedient and obedient, and we didn't feel how bitter it was. ”

Hu Qian said, "Can you tell me about what happened along the way?"

"All right!" he told his two brothers, that when he set out, he had quietly joined a merchant who had sold copper and iron to Jiankun. A day later, the merchant saw that he was driving the camel slowly, and fearing that the Jiankun people would find out that they were chasing them, so they went alone with the road map given by the merchant......

He also told them about the encounter with a man-wolf...... Finally, he also talked about the regular meeting when he met back to Chang'an in Jiuquan, and sighed with emotion: "I really admire my grandma!"

Hu Qian admired it: "My aunt is a heroine among women!"

Hai'er agreed: "My mother is really a heroine among women!"

Kent was deeply touched: "It's good to have grandma!"

……

Even though it was cold outside, inside the tent, the three of them lay huddled together

I didn't feel cold and fell asleep quickly.

Since Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty succeeded to the throne, the country has become strong under the assistance of the great general Huo Guang. After the Xiongnu Hulu Gu Dadan Yu succeeded to the throne, he was assisted by Li Ling's agricultural and wood princes to implement farming, and the food was not very scarce, coupled with the fear of the national strength of the Han Dynasty, there was no Han and the small countries in the Western Regions to harass and plunder.

In this way, the two sides will not fight, and it will be relatively safe to travel along the way. In addition, Kent has been walking on this road for many years, and although the shepherds who have migrated south along the way live, they have become acquaintances. A month and a half later, after a long journey, they finally returned home.

When he saw his nephew and learned that his sister Mei Ga had returned to his mother's hometown, Dahan, he burst into tears of joy. This is also the dream of two generations of their family.

He asked about Brother Su's condition and was even more relieved to learn that he was in good health. He specially held a banquet at home, first, to welcome his nephew who came from afar, and secondly, to welcome his son and Kent home safely.

After the three of them rested for two days, their bodies basically recovered, and they told Fuqu about Su Wu's plans, and Fuqu was very happy. Although he has a successful career here, there are frequent news of divisions between the princes in the royal court. Besides, I am a shaman, and I have a lot of connections with them.

Nearest the king nearest the gallows. If the parties do not fight in the end, it will be difficult to protect their own place, and their families will also be implicated...... Brother Su's plan is good, as long as you get closer to Dahan to the south, the safer it is......

Su Haier got the support of his uncle, and he wanted to go back to Jiankun to visit his father-in-law Li Ling and his sister, but the journey was not very peaceful. Kent accompanied Hai'er to visit the palace of the right school, and Li Ling was still in Hala and Lin. When he saw his son-in-law, he was very excited. I was relieved to know that my daughter wanted to be very good.

Hai'er told Li Ling about the idea of coming back this time, and as soon as he heard it: "I don't object to your ideas and practices, I can't go back, and the more than 300 brothers who are with me can't go back." But I support you, your brother-in-law and sister if they want to, I have no opinion!"

Since the heavy snow closed the mountain in winter, Li Ling has been staying in the royal court. He felt that he was a little older, and he was a little unable to go back and forth. Now I want to accompany Hai'er back to Jiankun and find a reason to ask for leave for Da Danyu.

Although the ground is still covered with snow, the sun is shining brightly and the ground is rising. It is time to implement and inspect the spring ploughing in various places. He immediately asked for leave in the name of implementing the cultivated land of various tribes, and then took Hai'er and Han Yulin and went straight to Jiankun on horseback.
