The team of more than 200 people continued to travel westward, and the addition of monkeys injected a different atmosphere, which invisibly eliminated everyone's panic of "going to the west to cool and lucky". Lin Wan'er and Baoyu like the little monkey the most, dancing with guns and sticks, flipping and rolling, all of which are proficient and proficient.

Due to the influence of the eldest sister's "Journey to the West", Baoyu thought that the weapon used by the monkey must be a stick, so Baoyu specially made a "golden hoop stick" for the little monkey, and engraved the five big characters of "Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick" on it.

After the little monkey finished brushing, he put the golden hoop stick behind him, jumped up in the air, caught the banana or peach thrown by Baoyu, and ran to the side to eat a delicious meal.

I don't know if this little monkey has understood human nature and has obviously different emotional ups and downs towards everyone. has the best relationship with Baoyu, and some of them mean to become friends, often jumping on Baoyu's shoulders, dancing and squeaking; is a little afraid of Li Mubai, whenever this white-clothed swordsman appears, the little monkey is tense, and he will always be a lot quieter, or run away for a long time; For Lin Wan'er, there was obvious disdain in its eyes, every time she saw Lin Wan'er sitting in front of her with a maza, sipping melon seeds, smiling, and watching herself turn her heels with relish, this little monkey always had the urge to wave a golden hoop stick and smash it on her head.

It is impossible for Lin Wan'er to know the mind of a monkey, and she thinks that this little monkey likes herself very much, otherwise why does this little monkey always wave a small stick and rush towards her when everyone looks at the little monkey? If it weren't for the ropes in the hands of the monkeys. Lin Wan'er felt that this little monkey would plunge into her arms and roll and be coquettish.

Lin Wan'er's wild laughter can be heard in the team every day, regardless of her own image, invisibly infecting everyone in the team. Turning from anxiety to calm, and Lin Wan'er watched the little monkey jump left and right together, sometimes they were a little unsure whether to look at the little monkey or listen to the laughter of everyone Lin to get some comfort.

The procession continued westward, becoming more and more reticent as the days progressed. Even Lin Wan'er, whose nerves were as thick as a little monkey's stick, noticed something unusual, and she deliberately called Cordyceps to her side and asked, "Cordyceps." Lately, I have all seemed to be on my mind, what the hell is going on? ”

Cordyceps and Xia Cao glanced at each other, and finally Xia Cao explained: "Lin family, this Xiliang is different from other places. Although it is the land of Great Wei. But it is tantamount to China, and it is extremely mysterious, the Central Plains region does not know anything about the distribution of power and personnel within Xiliang, only knows that the original 300,000 Xiliang iron cavalry has suddenly increased to 500,000, coupled with the imperial court rendering and Xiliang itself in recent years, Xiliang must be reversed seems to have become a certainty, it is just a matter of time, in the early years, Xiliang risked the world's disapproval. To seize the Hetao Plain by force, Sima Qi of the Five Tigers of Xiliang did not cross the snow pass a few years ago. appeared on the grassland desert, and almost cut off the head of the king of the southern courtyard of the right tent royal court, these things are intertwined, and many people have already speculated what kind of scene it will be if Sima Qi swings the Central Plains and points his sword at the capital. ”

Lin Wan'er nodded, she had heard about these things from Lin Hanlin and Lin Qianyi, the grievances and festivals between Xiliang and the imperial court originated from the Suzaku Gate incident, or the estrangement between His Majesty and Xu Xiao, although there was a certain tacit understanding between His Majesty and Xu Xiao, but the imperial court and Xiliang are two concepts, Pan Chunwei, the prime minister of the imperial court, and Sima Qi in Xiliang, but there are irreconcilable contradictions.

Winter Worm added: "The imperial court also sent envoys to Xiliang, but they were all washed by His Royal Highness Xu Yunfeng, such as taking off his pants and walking to Xiliang, and some ministers were put in prison cars and pulled into Liangzhou City, and even worse, they were sold to Xihu as slaves. There are also people who say that the people who brought Xiliang back are crazy. ”

Xu Yunfeng? Lin Wan'er had heard of this name, and Zhao Gan's birdman called "the most noble identity of the Great Wei Kingdom, but the most unreliable two", I heard Wei Songwei's eldest brother and Lao Wulin Renzhong mention it, His Royal Highness the prince of this world deliberately went to Lanzhou to "meet" himself, but at that time he had already come to the capital and passed by Xu Yunfeng. But His Royal Highness the Prince was not idle, and did three things in Lanzhou, one was to beat Han Qing's shirt, and the other was to burn the painting boat.

Both things are ridiculous, but Lin Wan'er felt particularly relieved, but the third thing made Lin Wan'er's second monk confused, that Xu Yunfeng actually "slept" Zheng Tuo, the big master of the painting boat, tsk, it is really a strange thing in the world, and the male style has reached the point where there is no shame and shame, Great Wei Kingdom, I feel sorry for you. Lin Wan'er thought of Zheng Tuo, who had slender fingers, was tall, and often stood at the mouth of the river and looked into the distance, and sighed softly in her heart, she was a person with a story again.

Standing up slowly, Lin Wan'er touched Shang Fang's sword and pistol on her waist: "I don't care what Xu Yunfeng is, if you dare to make things difficult for this girl, go down with a sword, jump with a shot, and let you have a good time." It seemed that thinking of the special relationship between Baoyu and Xu Yunfeng, Lin Wan'er was immediately silent.

Baoyu walked up to the eldest sister very sensibly and said, "Eldest sister, Baoyu will not let anyone bully the eldest sister." ”

"It's still Baoyu, I know that I feel sorry for my eldest sister." Lin Wan'er squatted down and kissed Baoyu, "The eldest sister won't let anyone bully Baoyu." ”

The atmosphere in the team became more and more depressing, but Lin Wan'er didn't care at all, the team's steward asked Lin Wan'er to say a few words to boost morale in front of everyone, Lin Wan'er snorted coldly: "They find their own guilt, why do you let me wipe my buttocks, if you say it, I can't say it." ”

The steward sighed and walked out of the tent alone, shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

She doesn't have the consciousness of being a leader, nor does she have the leadership ability to lead a team, and she doesn't have the cohesion to bring everyone together, if Chen Nuonuo is here, her kind of calm self-confidence will bring comfort to everyone, and a few words can appease everyone, and Lin Wan'er doesn't care. Allowing the depressive atmosphere to develop, her heartless behavior will give everyone a childish feeling of "teenagers don't know the taste of sorrow", so Lin Waner will never become a "strong woman". But she is also a slight "feminist", coupled with her biased principle of "helping relatives and not helping people", forming contradictions between each other, under this huge irreconcilable contradiction, Lin Waner has become synonymous with rudeness and unreasonable in the eyes of everyone, a child who has not yet grown up.

It's good to talk about this kind of evaluation in private, and don't mention it in front of the brothers of the Lin family. Otherwise, these people will rush up and beat you into a pig's head.

When the team arrived at the intersection of the Central Plains and Xiliang - Xueyong Pass, the depressing atmosphere in the team reached its climax.

Snow hugging pass. A sentence from the wandering poet of the Great Wei Kingdom, "the snow hugs the blue pass and the horse does not move forward", which is a necessary place to connect Xiliang and the Central Plains. The terrain of Xueyong Pass is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, showing an arc-shaped concave shape. However, in the past, the snow was not a battleground for soldiers. It is an ordinary place with flat terrain, which is an artificial natural hazard built by Xiliang "Tiger Girl" Gao Cuilan and "Fox Snake" Sima Qi by manpower, which can be attacked and defended, can advance and retreat, and has the name of "Hexi Heavy Pass, Border Lock and Key". (Sister, I won't write that Xue Yongguan has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, so I don't write like this, I am talented and capricious!) ）

Beyond the snow pass is the territory of Xiliang, the first thing that catches the eye is the Hetao Plain with a thousand miles of prancing horses and fertile land. At the beginning, the imperial court divided the king of Xiliang and took up the three states of Xiliang: Liangzhou, Liangzhou and Lingzhou, but in order to raise 300,000 horses. Xiliang privately seized the Hetao Plain, and it was overnight that the dangerous snow was cast, and the beacon system was even more continuous, which made the three provinces and six departments of the imperial court angry, so that there were "Xiliang Ten Questions" and Xu Xiao's slightly funny "Your grandma has a leg".

Unlike other Xiongguan iron gates, Xueyongguan did not build any town gates, but established a city fifty miles after Xueyongguan, named Xueyongcheng, and between Xueyongguan and Xueyongcheng, there was a vast desert, which became a training place for the Xu army. No one who knows a little bit about the art of war will do such a stupid thing, not to set up battlements and beacons at the checkpoint, but to set them up fifty miles away, but those who have really seen Xu Jiatie riding at a galloping speed will really understand that it is only fifty miles.

The convoy arrived at Xueyongguan just in time for the good season when the weather was blue, the sky was like a flawless jade, pure and bright, because Xueyongguan had not yet experienced the baptism of war, so it had not been stained with blood and tears and iron bone fighting, showing a kind of natural beauty washed by lead.

It is like a lion nesting there, waiting for the great battle that belongs to it, stained with iron armor and blood, awakened by the thunderclap of bows and arrows, and then relying on many unjust souls, it has become a footnote to history, but at the moment it is still a beautiful landscape, and being in it can only make people feel the beauty of nature.

Lin Wan'er sat in the carriage, stretched out her hand to lift the curtain, raised her hand to cover her eyes, looked at the majestic Xueyong Pass, and said in amazement: "It's really amazing, how did they build without excavators and trucks?" ”

Cordyceps didn't answer, don't guess Lin everyone's thinking, as for what the excavator and truck are, don't ask, it's all Lin and Jia Baoyu in "The Stone Story", talking nonsense again.

The steward drove the horse closer, bowed his head and said, "Everyone Lin, after the month, we will arrive in Xiliang, so the team must enter a state of full alert." ”

"Oh." Lin Wan'er nodded, looked at the steward and asked, "Then what?" ”

The steward sighed and explained, "The team should rest immediately before setting off. ”

"Oh, don't ask me about such a trivial matter, just decide for yourself." Lin Wan'er jumped out of the carriage and got ready to enjoy the snow hugging pass.

The steward sighed in his heart, this Lin family is really ...... A strange flower, such as a big thing like a team rest is not a big deal in her eyes, but a small thing like what to eat for dinner has become a big thing, an order, the team immediately began to rest, many people have put on light armor, the purpose is to deal with accidents, more if the Xiliang army is difficult, there can still be a fight.

After resting, the team continued to advance, and the narrowest part of the Xueyong Pass could only accommodate two carriages to pass through, which was also the reason why Xiliang dared to build the Xueyong City fifty miles away, even if the enemy army attacked, it would take a short time to pass through the Xueyong Pass.

The team passed through the snow pass, and in front of them was an endless desert, shining golden in the sun, although it was only fifty miles, but standing in front of the desert, it still gave people a sense of insignificance.

Lin Wan'er's big hat finally came in handy, she put it on her head, drank saliva, stood on the edge of the desert, raised her eyes, and asked, "How long can I cross the desert." ”

The steward replied, "One day." ”

Suddenly, I don't know when a dark cloud floated in the sky, covering the sun and the blue sky, and there was a rumbling sound between the heaven and the earth without warning, as if the Nine Heavens Xuan Thunder fell to the ground, but this rumbling sound became louder and louder, deafening, and gusts of wind began to hang up without warning, and the sand and gravel under his feet began to roll with the wind, rolling faster and faster.

The tulle on Lin Wan'er's hat was blown from side to side, and she asked the steward beside her, "What's the situation?" ”

The steward's face was gloomy, revealing an unprecedentedly stern expression: "Tornado." ”

"Tornado?" Lin Wan'er didn't believe that her luck was so good, she had just set foot in Xiliang and encountered a tornado, or a tornado in the desert.

But the facts made Lin Wan'er have to believe that from a distance, between the desert and the world, a gray-black pillar was constantly tumbling and flying, and the top of the pillar was a dense dark cloud like a grass, showing a strange green, coupled with the rumbling sound of lightning and wind, like a whirlpool that could swallow everything, everything that came close would be swallowed up, twisted into pieces, and then thrown into the air.

The tornado in everyone's eyes is getting closer and closer, and the surroundings are getting darker and darker, and many objects in the convoy have been sucked in, and some timid little maids have already cried with a whimper. The steward couldn't help but smile bitterly, he thought that he had made a precautionary correction, but he knew that he had just stepped into Xiliang and encountered a tornado.

This huge tornado is biting towards the convoy at the fastest speed, it seems to feel the fear of everyone, constantly changing its posture on the way forward, swaying its waist, slowly, but in the eyes of everyone it is as fast as an arrow off the string. (To be continued......)
