Volume 1, Burning Sun Volume The fifth round (above) The tea horse corridor road is uneven, and the carriage is wonderful

The fifth (above) tea horse corridor road encountered unevenness, and the carriage was full of wisdom and gnostic

The Tea and Horse Corridor of the Minglei Empire, starting from Cangyun County in the east, stretches all the way to the northwest, passing through Shuling, Shaxi, and Xiliang counties, and finally arrives at Mobei County.

The Tea Horse Corridor originated from the folk tradition of tea and horse markets.

Mobei high cold, residents need to consume enough fat in life to resist the cold, so Erduo to tsampa, ghee, beef and mutton milk as the staple food, affected by the climate and soil, in Mobei vegetables are not easy to grow, partial raw tsampa eating hot, resulting in residual fat in the body is not easy to decompose, it just so happens that tea can not only decompose fat, but also prevent heat, so Mobei residents in the long-term life practice, to create a habit of drinking butter tea, but Mobei does not produce tea. In the south of Shuling, whether it is a private merchant or an imperial army, a large number of good horses are needed, and the supply of horses exceeds the demand. Over time, the good horses, furs, medicinal herbs and the tea, cloth, utensils and so on produced in the south of the Shuling Mountains began to travel from south to north between the high mountains and deep valleys in the southwest of the empire, flowing endlessly, after the founding emperor of the Thunder Empire ascended the throne, he used the army to expand the ancient road in the mountains, and finally became a trade road "Tea and Horse Corridor".

The so-called human nature is mostly selfish and selfish. In the rivers and lakes, there are some chivalrous and righteous stories, heroes saving beauty, but in fact, the world is indifferent, it is not about oneself, and the road is uneven and detoured.

In recent years, the Tea and Horse Corridor has become more prosperous due to the rapid development of all walks of life in Cangyun County. At the border of Liuye City, a line of heavenly canyons is slender and narrow, a carriage is parked on the side of the road, eighteen armor soldiers surround the cluster, four of them have spears in their hands pointing directly at the four martial artists under the horse, a white-haired old man kneeling in front of the carriage, constantly grabbing the ground with his head, the carriage keeps shaking and shaking, and the sound of oblivion accompanied by the male voice scolding intermittently came out of the car.

The eighteen armor soldiers were fierce and vicious, and the double swords on the shoulder armor were crossed, and a tulip emblem bathed in thunder and lightning was undoubtedly the epaulette of the regular army of the Thunder Empire. Passing by the caravan merchants and caravans looked sideways, afraid of the majesty of the armor, they did not dare to stay close, and stopped to watch from afar.

Although the Tea Horse Corridor has been expanded by the empire, there are still many sinister places, and there are many cut-offs, for ordinary caravanserais, running business on this trade route is a job of exchanging life for money, not to mention that since ancient times, the people did not fight with officials, and there was no reason to meddle in affairs, and the weak and the strong eat the strong, which is a simple and clear truth.

The white-haired old man knelt in front of the carriage, kowtowing incessantly in the shouts of "Childe forgive his sins", and blood was oozing from his forehead. The leader of the armor pulled the reins of his horse and came to the old man, smiling obscenely and playfully.

"Old man, my young master pampered your young lady, it is a blessing that your young lady has cultivated for several lifetimes, but my son has always been kind and generous, and you don't need to be so grateful. ”

The old man's body couldn't help trembling, the old tears were all over the place, listening to the constant sound of movement in the car, all thoughts were lost, and he raised his head and stared at the leader of the armor.

"Don't look at me like that, there are more people who have seen me like this, but they have never been able to treat me well, I will send you to meet them in a while, you must have a lot of common topics to talk about. The leader of the armor raised his spear, provoked the old man's chin, and the sharp spear cut a wound on the old man's neck and chin, and the blood flowed profusely.

The leader of the armor raised his right hand and made a gesture, and the four warriors who accompanied the escort horse gang were smashed in the chest by a shot almost at the same time, and the corpses were on the side of the road, most of the onlookers saw the death, and did not dare to stay longer, raised the whip to drive the horse, and stayed away from right and wrong.

The leader of the armor drove his horse and trampled on the head of a dead warrior, and jokingly said: "I don't believe you. ”

"You can't die a good death, you can't die a good death! Reckless behavior at the border of Liuye, the sky has eyes, and Wuhou will definitely uphold justice for us!" The old man's eyes were split, and blood and tears were mixed and fell.

Hearing the name of Wuhou, the leader of the armor hesitated slightly, but quickly laughed and said: "It's a pity, old man, the sky has eyes but no mouth." The leader of the armor made a gesture, and the armor soldiers rode their horses and guns, and rushed towards the onlookers.

The screams and wails continued to sound, and even if the ordinary caravan merchant hired a martial arts master to escort them, how could they win the regular army armor sergeant. In just a moment, onlookers were scattered with corpses from near and far, frightened horses scattered and fled, and goods were scattered in a messy valley.

"The old rule, chase and kill for ten miles, and leave no one alive. The leader of the armor soldiers licked his lips, and the blood groove of the spear in his hand kept dripping blood to the ground, and the eighteen armor soldiers who were used to cleaning up the aftermath were divided into two teams, each facing one side, and they were about to ride their horses and rush to destroy the mouth.

The mutation was sudden, a carriage from a distance slacked closer, the cart horse in front of a dead body neighed and stopped, the front hooves raised high, the carriage continued to rush forward due to inertia, and it was about to run over the coachman and the horse together, but the tall blonde and strong coachman stood up on the carriage seat/platform, and his right foot suddenly stepped down, the carriage suddenly stopped like a thousand pounds, and an object flew out of the car, rolled in the air a few times, and fell into a dead body.

In the carriage, the old Taoist priest and Liu Fengshuang sat in the soft chair, Liu Fengxue and Shi Nianyuan sat on the floor of the carriage, Nalan Zuochen was skilled in driving, and although the appearance of the carriage was mediocre, a lot of effort was put into the details such as shock absorption, and it was still stable in high-speed driving.

The flowing wind and snow looked directly at Shi Nianyuan, who was holding the snow-white little fox to feed the medicine, and his eyes lingered on the bandaged fingers of the young master Shi.

"Why does your fox drink blood every day?" asked Drift Blizzard curiously.

"I don't want to bleed every day, it's painful and painful. But there is no way, my dog is injured and must drink medicine to recuperate, but unfortunately the medicine is blood. Shi Nianyuan replied helplessly.

"Pure Yang blood. The old Taoist priest who closed his eyes and recuperated opened his eyes and added.

"Shut up, old bull nose, no one will treat you as a dumb person if you don't speak. ”

After Shi Nianyuan, the old Taoist, the Xueshuang sisters and Nalan Zuochen left Liuye City, they had been walking and resting for more than half a month, and as everyone gradually became familiar with each other, Shi Nianyuan had not given the old Taoist any face at all.

At the beginning, Liu Fengxue often criticized Shi Nianyuan, such as disrespecting the elders, not knowing how to be polite, not big or small, etc., but Shi Nianyuan was far from being taught repeatedly, but intensified, often hooking up with Nalan Zuochen and chatting about some weird topics that Liu Fengxue couldn't understand at all, and didn't notice when Shi Nianyuan's address to Zhao Qianzi became Lao Niu's nose.

I really don't know what Grandpa Nalan and Elder Zhao think, but they can not care at all. Forget it, it can barely be attributed to the superior's own demeanor, and the elders don't care about the juniors. But even Shuang'er often helps this scoundrel to fight when he is arguing with this scoundrel......

The more Liu Fengxue thought about it, the more angry he became, and kicked at Shi Nianyuan's ass.

Probably because he was often kicked along the way, he cultivated a stress response, Shi Nianyuan's calf muscles suddenly exerted force, and his buttocks hurriedly moved to the side to dodge with a kick, and kicked the empty wind and snow to his ankles, and said in a coquettish voice: "Why are you hiding again?"

Shi Nianyuan put the little fox on the soft cushion beside Liufeng Shuang, and asked with palpitations: "Why don't I hide? Miss Liufeng, how many times have you sneaked up on my ass along the way? If it weren't for my son's dexterity, the chrysanthemum would have been injured a long time ago, okay?"

Liufengxue's face flushed, and he stood up at once, condescendingly pointed at Shi Nianyuan's nose and said in a coquettish voice: "You, you, you, don't say anything about that flower! Ouch......" As a result, he stood too fast and his feet ached, and Liufengxue fell face down and his back up to the carriage floor.

Liufengxue subconsciously crossed his hands in front of his chest, and when Shi Nianyuan was still struggling with whether to dodge or not, Liufengxue's two elbows had already slammed into his ribs.

"Second Olympic ......" Shi Nianyuan screamed, saw the flowing wind and snow and didn't get up, and continued to complain: "Miss, can you hurry up?

Flowing Wind Snow still maintained her posture, and threatened fiercely: "You promise me not to say anything about that flower, and if you shout at Flowing Wind Woman to spare her life, I will get up." ”

Shi Nianyuan pushed Liufeng Xue aside without giving any face, sat up, rubbed his ribs, rolled his eyes, and asked, "Don't talk about chrysanthemums, do you mean ass/eye?"

"You...... Shameless, obscene, shameless!" Flowing Fengxue endured the pain in her ankles, sat on the cushion by the window with her armrests, lifted her two bare feet onto the chair, hugged her knees and buried her head, her shoulders swaying slightly up and down.

Ha?

Crying?

Shi Nianyuan turned his head to ask for help and looked at Liufeng Frost, but as a result, Liu Fengshuang touched his sight and twisted directly to the side, Shi Nianyuan was helpless, and climbed close to Liufeng Xue on the floor of the carriage, and sat cross-legged on the floor in front of Liufeng Xue.

"Miss?" Shi Nianyuan tilted his head from the bottom to the top, but he couldn't see the expression of the flowing wind and snow.

- Trying to restrain the rapid breathing of sobbing.

"Flowing wind and snow?" Shi Nianyuan felt a little guilty in his heart, did he tease him too much......

- A few intermittent whimpering.

"Windswept Woman?"

Impulsive!

In Shi Nianyuan's sight, a girl's feet changed from small to big, and she beckoned straight to her face, and with one kick, Shi Nianyuan rolled directly on the carriage floor twice, and her head slammed into the armrest of the opposite chair.

"Hahaha! Fight with this woman, you are still a little tender. There were indeed tears in the corners of Liufengxue's eyes, but no matter how Shi Nianyuan looked at it, it seemed to be laughing.

"Little girl, don't you know if you don't hit someone's face? Lao Tzu fought with you!" Shi Nianyuan got up, and walked towards Liufeng Xue with a fierce look, Liufeng Xue's eyes were full of a cunning smile that had succeeded in the conspiracy, and he looked at Shi Nianyuan boldly, and at the same time squeezed behind the old Taoist priest with his slender figure and whispered softly: "Elder Zhao saves Xue'er." ”

"Heavenly King Lao Tzu can't save you!" Shi Nianyuan approached step by step, but the carriage suddenly jolted violently a few times, and suddenly stopped, the old Taoist priest's eyes suddenly opened, and he grabbed the wind and snow with one hand, and picked up the dust with the other hand and waved it forward to roll up the wind and frost and the little fox, poor Young Master Shi, because of the inertia of the carriage's emergency stop, flew straight out of the carriage curtain, and then flipped a few times above Nalan Zuochen's head, and finally fell into the middle of the road in front of the car.

Shi Nianyuan, who kept scolding his mother in his heart, suddenly felt that the place where he fell was soft, the pain was not as strong as expected, he didn't know what was on his hands, the touch was sticky/greasy, and the smell of blood in the air was extremely heavy.
