Night falls... Finally, the Ekito gumi arrived at the sandbank.

Shazhou is now Dunhuang... The four great civilizations once met in one place and manifested themselves in the most splendid form, this place is the cultural holy land of China - Dunhuang.

Dunhuang is a famous city on the ancient Silk Road, her position in history, equivalent to today's Xiangjiang, Chunshen, is a modern international metropolis and an important treaty port, in international trade, cultural exchanges play an important role that other cities can not replace.

Dunhuang is a famous cultural city with a history of more than 2,000 years. Today's Dunhuang has developed in the direction of modernization with social and economic progress, all kinds of business, entertainment and cultural venues are distributed in the center of Dunhuang, Yumen Pass is located 90 kilometers northwest of Dunhuang City, "the Yellow River is far above the white clouds, a lonely city of ten thousand mountains." Why should Qiang Di complain about the willows, the spring breeze does not pass the Yumen Pass". A song by Wang Zhilian's "Liangzhou Ci" pushed Yumen Pass to an unattainable cultural height. How many people have worked tirelessly to come here to feel what kind of story there is in this closed city where the spring breeze has stopped and refuses to go west. However, now there is only one earthen bag left in Yumen Pass, but its majesty is no longer important, it is more like a symbol or symbol that carries the culture and sorrow of generations.

Once upon a time, a lonely caravan of a dozen camels crossed this ancient Silk Road. They have traveled thousands of miles from Chang'an, and how many thousands of miles are waiting for them?

A thousand years later, we have come here for thousands of miles, looking at the vastness outside the gate, whether our former entanglements and current desires have become so small and insignificant.

............................

Entering the sandbank, I came to the destination of the post group, the sandbank station, and when the gate of the sandbank post was opened, an atmosphere of solemnity immediately floated inside.

Looking at the neatly arranged and murderous guards inside, Zhang Churan smiled bitterly: "Look... They're ready to hit us. ”

After all... Zhang Guoli walked out in armor.

"Mr. Guoli.... "A surprise for Huang Xiaolei and Di Lireba.

"Am I a god?" blurted out a thick Shaanxi dialect, and some scholars believe that the official dialect of the Tang Dynasty should be based on the language of Luoyang, Chang'an.

"Are you new today?" Zhang Guoli said slowly.

"Meet your lordship. "Zhang Guoli can be slow, but Zhang Churan and others can't be slow, and there is a little flattery, who let them lose the goods.

"What about me... That's it... is also the highest leader here, so here I have the final say, if I provoke me and say that I will kill you, I will kill you, I hope you can be honest and take out your list. ”

The so-called list is actually a list of the contents of the goods, and the number of goods can be checked with the list, but now that the goods are lost, if the list is handed over, it is not equivalent to looking for death.

So Shen Xie was very bad, because there was still a blanket in the post group that had not been snatched away, so he tore up the contents of the other list, leaving only a small strip with blankets written on it.

When Zhang Guoli got the product of Shen Zhi's cleverness, even Zhang Guoli laughed speechlessly: "Are you playing this adult? I have been a post for so many years, and I have never seen such a list." ”

"Hehe... Adult, this villain can't figure it out, anyway, this is what the other party gave me, and I will take this back to the adult, and the adult has never seen it, it doesn't seem to have much to do with us.

If you want to talk about quibbles, no one can really say Lord Shen, that quibble is completely subtle, making you invulnerable.

It's just that after a while, after Zhang Guoli listened to Shen Ying's quibbles, his face became very serious and said: "The rules of the Tang Dynasty, the list is in duplicate, you have one in your hand, and I also have one in my hand, if you use this to mix with me, I tell you, you will die ugly." ”

Speaking of which, it is obviously the post family group that is wrong, but Shen Zhi is fun and fun, he can still stir up three points if he is unreasonable, just when Zhang Churan and the others didn't know what to do, they heard Shen Xue look at Zhang Guoli and complain: "My lord... You have one in your hand, why do you want this one in our hand, are you obviously playing with us?"

"Haha... The post group, who had been a little scared, laughed.

It's just that the post household group couldn't hand over the things on the list in Zhang Guoli's hands at all, and then they could only be beaten.

"Who is the head of you?" Zhang Guoli's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Head...?" Shen Xie looked at Zhang Churan, then looked back at Di Lieba and shouted, "Boss... Reba is the head. ”

"Ahh Seeing Shen Yi pointing at him, Di Lieba was stunned and shouted: "Why am I the head, Brother Chu Ran, I am not the head." ”

"What a noise... Whoever is the head and who is not the head, how can it be that you say who is, take out your waist card, and the officer will check it, and whoever says on the waist card is, then who is. ”

When everyone took out the waist card, Shen Jia laughed: "My lord, what is written on my waist card is a small soldier." ”

It's just that Di Lireba's little face became bitter, because she wrote the captain on it.

"It's you, you little girl is the head, so I don't hit you, I hit your head. ”

"Ah...?Brother Chu Ran....!" The little guy looked at Zhang Churan pitifully, and soon, the stool was also brought, and he was going to take Di Lieba on the stool and spank him.

There was no way, looking at Di Li Reba's pitiful little appearance, Zhang Churan could only stand up and look at Zhang Guoli and said, "My lord... Our head is a female streamer, so I hope we can take a beating instead of our head. ”

"Yes... Zhang Guoli was also simply, immediately agreed to Zhang Churan's request, and was soon beaten, it was a real beating, although they had already started lightly, but no matter how light it was, it was the feeling of being hit on the ass with a stick, a total of three boards, Zhang Churan couldn't smile bitterly, and was pumped miserably.

And just when Zhang Churan was pumped, there was an unlucky guy like Zhang Churan in the post group, who, who else could there be, Yu Xiaotong!

The post soldiers are a little better than the post houses, because they can sit on camels, but the program team may make you comfortable all the time, the answer is of course impossible, when on the road, the post soldiers met a businessman who bought things, and there was a prosperous fortune in the hands of the merchant, but if you wanted to be prosperous, you had to exchange it for the luminous cup in the goods escorted by the post soldier.

In order to make money, Yu Xiaotong took out the luminous cup, and after redeeming the wealth, a group of people were ready to enter the sandbank, but as soon as they entered the sandbank, they were arrested by the local garrison and asked the soldiers to hand over the glow-in-the-dark cup.

But the luminous cup has long been replaced by a prosperous one, where is there a luminous cup, no? The general of the garrison was furious and immediately punished Yu Xiaotong, they punished it strangely, Yu Xiaotong was arrested, and then Yu Xiaotong's feet were coated with honey for the sheep to lick.

Soon, Yu Xiaotong's screams sounded, oh... No, it's laughter!

..............................

"Where is this?"

The post house group, who had been beaten, appeared in front of a small earthen house, just when everyone looked at the small earthen house in front of them dumbfounded.

A staff member who followed behind said: "You are a post house, so you can't sleep in the city, this is a sentry post, so you have to keep a guard here, if the Turks come, you must go to the city to report as soon as possible." ”

"Oh my God... Shen Yi said speechlessly: "Isn't the post house too miserable, not only can you not live in the city, if there are Turks outside and you have to report, then who is killed?"

Shen Xian's words made everyone smile, but this is the post house, and the post house in ancient times was so difficult.

At night, as soon as the post group entered the small earthen house, there was a strong wind outside, and the wind was really terrifying, you have never seen such a wind, and it could blow you away.

At this time, Zhang Churan and Di Li Reba still had to run to the top of the small earthen house to sentry, I drip, the wind blew and couldn't even open my eyes, and Di Li Reba was staggered, Zhang Churan hugged Di Li Reba tightly, otherwise he would definitely be blown down.

And just like that, everyone spent the night.

And early the next morning, when everyone was still sleeping, they were woken up by the staff again, what are you doing, you have to get up and practice how to deliver letters, and the post soldiers have to practice how to fight, anyway, you don't want to sleep.

This letter is not so simple, there are about 50 drum sounds, that is, just a few minutes, the post house has to copy the letter, on foot, on horseback, and other ways, to pass the letter, but the time is really too short, so the post house group can not complete the i at all, and finally was taught a lesson.

And was punished to make paper, everyone knows that papermaking is the Eastern Han Dynasty, a man named Cai Lun improved papermaking, he used bark, hemp and cloth, fish nets and other raw materials, through frustration, pounding, copying, drying and other processes to make paper, is the origin of modern paper. This kind of paper, which is easy to find raw materials, is very cheap, and the quality has also improved, and it is gradually becoming more popular. In order to commemorate Cai Lun's achievements, later generations called this kind of paper "Cai Hou paper".

Don't think that paper is simple, it's actually very troublesome, and this time the task of the post group is to make ten pieces of paper.

"Hi... It's easy to make paper. Huang Xiaolei, who listened to the task, looked at Zhang Churan and the others and asked with a smile.

Shen Zhen smiled: "If it's not simple, then we will be punished again, yesterday we beat Chu Ran, today we beat me, if our papermaking also fails this time, then we will beat you girls." ”

"Ahh No, I haven't heard of papermaking. Di Lieba had a bitter face.

At this time, the staff came over and brought a piece of paper with the steps of papermaking written on it: the process can be roughly summarized into four steps:

The first is the separation of raw materials, that is, the raw materials are degummed in the lye solution by soaking or cooking, and dispersed into fibrous form;

The second is pulping, which is to cut off the fiber by cutting and pounding, and make the fiber broom, and become pulp;

The third is copying, that is, the pulp is soaked into slurry, and then the pulp is scooped with a paper grazer (mat), so that the pulp is interwoven into a thin sheet of wet paper on the paper grab;

The fourth is drying, that is, the wet paper is dried or dried, and when it is removed, it becomes paper.

After reading the steps, Huang Xiaolei smiled and said, "It seems to be quite simple." After speaking, the other members of the post group also smiled and nodded, isn't it just four steps, not too much.

It's just these four steps, when you do it, it's cumbersome, first of all, the post household group was taken to a workshop, where the paper is made, at the beginning is to cut hemp, cut with a firewood knife, Zhang Churan is the first, but this hemp is not very easy to cut, not that the hemp is too hard, but the firewood knife is not good.

"Why are you cutting so slowly?" Huang Xiaolei walked to Zhang Churan's side.

"This knife won't work. ”

"The knife is not good?" Huang Xiaolei came to Zhang Churan's side, then immediately picked up the knife and cut it twice, and quickly put the knife down: "Sure enough, it doesn't work... What about Lao Shen, we still have to cut a lot. ”

"How do I know what to do, I'm not a paper maker. Shen Yu was speechless and leaned on a stool and said, "I'm almost tired, it's still so hot here, you guys hurry up and work, we'll go on an errand when we're done." ”

"You're going to die. Huang Xiaolei looked at Shen Xian with a smile.

At this time, Di Li Repa said with a smile: "Brother Chu Ran and Sister Xiaolei are mistaken, when this firewood knife cuts silk and hemp, you don't have to press down desperately, you have to use skill." ”

After speaking, Di Lieba picked up the firewood knife and cut it quickly and well.

"Reba is good, it's amazing. Huang Xiaolei was amazed.

Zhang Churan was also full of praise and said: "Reba is amazing... I really didn't see it at all. ”

"Haha... Suddenly, Shen Yu laughed, and then said shamelessly: "See, this is the apprentice I taught." ”

"Phew.... For Shen Xian's shamelessness, everyone collectively spurned.

"Alright... Brother, don't lie down, you're going to get up, we're going to make a fire and prepare to cook silk hemp. Zhang Churan walked to Shen Chen's side and pulled Shen Xian up.

This made Shen Xian sigh and said: "How did I become a post house, I knew earlier, I would have been a post soldier, by the way, what are they doing now?"

After Shen Yin finished speaking, the staff said with a smile: "They just finished attacking the city and are resting now." ”

In a word, the people of the post group are envious.

However, envy is envy, work still has to be done, cooked... Steam... When cooking, add lime to make the paper softer, and steam it over high heat when steaming.

The cumbersome and strict procedures made the post team seriously suspicious of the steps that the production team had just shown. The gap is too big, even the staff is smiling, indeed, the initial steps are simplified, but there are too many simple.

It took more than two hours for the Ekido group to complete the first two steps, and when the third step was reached, the pulp was soaked into a slurry, and then the pulp was scooped with a paper scraper (mat) to make the pulp interwoven into a thin sheet of wet paper on the paper scraper.

This paper fishing is also very difficult, because if you want to make a flat paper, it is impossible at all, because it is uneven, either more or less, a square mat, you can't make it so flat and neat.

"Pit man, this is pit man, how to fish this, it takes ten more sheets, and now we can make one. Shen Qian complained, this time it was really not that Shen was lazy, but that it was really too difficult to get paper.

Even Zhang Churan complained: "This is done by the master, we are novices, and ten sheets are simply impossible." ”

As soon as Zhang Churan complained, the other two girls also complained after him, and the people who shocked the post group were just after everyone complained, and immediately listened to the humanity of the production team: "Okay, you make a complete piece of paper, and the task will be completed." ”

"Uh... That's great. The post group cheered together, from ten to one, this gap is too good, at this time, the post group is also very grateful to the program group, they feel that today's program group is really cute.

And the fact is, the post group has timed out, and the following recording has been delayed!
