Chapter 815: The Dark Tide is Surging
The scenery on the meadow does have a feeling of comfort when I first see it, the endless vastness, the lofty sky, the white clouds, and the desert all over the mountains and wilderness do have a great impact on people, as if all the grievances and burdens have dissipated without a trace in this vast world.
It's a pity that no matter how beautiful the scenery is, there are times when you get tired of seeing it.
Qin Daixin was lying on the carriage, one hand on her forehead, blocking the dazzling sunlight, and the other hand was fiddling with a small stone.
Ji Wan'er shook her head secretly, this girl, since she left the battlement, she looked preoccupied, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After Qin Daixin finished talking with Chu Caiyi that day, she went directly back to her room, she didn't go to Murong Jing, and she didn't tell anyone what she heard.
Xue Qing and Lingzi helped Chu Caiyi prepare dry food and water according to her instructions, gave her a sum of silver and a horse, and took advantage of the night to send her out of the battlement village. Because Qin Daixin and Pan Shuangshuang reached an agreement, the people in the buttressed village did not embarrass her, but everyone did not know where she went.
Before dawn the next day, Qin Daixin and Murong Jing mobilized everyone and left the battlement village while the sky was bright. Not long after they left the battlement village, they heard the news that Sha Lifei had gotten rid of Cao Heihan on the way. The three of them became tigers, and what happened was not publicized by others, and Sha Lifei simply became a heavenly soldier who could reach a hundred, beating Cao Heihan to the ground, and became the protector of the desert caravan overnight.
Qin Dai didn't pay any attention to these things in her heart, she asked her subordinates to keep only a few camels, and the rest were all replaced by horses, and let people buy two carriages to pull goods at a high price, and then set off again.
The terrain tends to be gentle, the signs of desertification and grassland are becoming more and more obvious, but the altitude is getting higher and higher, and those who are in poor health may not be able to breathe, but fortunately, everyone is in good health. is affordable.
Ji Wan'er slowly leaned over and lay beside her like Qin Daixin.
These days, everyone can see that Qin Daixin's appearance is very abnormal. Her words became very few, and even when she faced Murong Jing, she didn't smile. It's cold, and it makes people's backs hairy!
"Well, what are you throwing a temper about?" Ji Wan'er has always been outspoken, she regarded Qin Dai as a friend, although she was also very aggrieved to endure the doubts in her heart before, but at this moment, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Qin Dai in her heart.
Qin Daixin didn't turn her head to look at her, but said, "Sister Wan'er." Why don't you get tired of Brother Duan? "During this time, everyone has been living together through thick and thin, not only to face the life of eating and sleeping in the desert, but also to always be vigilant against the elusive horse bandits and desert wolves, everyone's tacit understanding has already been practiced, and even the relationship between Duan Xing and Ji Wan'er has quickly warmed up. Don't look at Duan Xing's rugged appearance. Another heroic temperament, but sometimes the heart is really fine, Ji Wan'er handed him water when he was thirsty, and he put on cotton clothes when he was cold, looking like an iron man and tender, which is enviable.
"You, what do you say. You Nizi, see that I don't pull your mouth. Ji Wan'er pretended to push her twice, and then whispered over and asked, "Tell me, are you having trouble with the Ninth Master?" "Now everyone calls Murong Jing the Ninth Master.
Qin Daixin blinked her eyes, "No! β
"You don't come. Let me ask you, how have you been so indifferent to the Ninth Master these days. Don't you all sleep together? How to ......"
As soon as Ji Wan'er's words fell, she felt that someone had pinched her waist, she screamed, and then covered her mouth as if she remembered something, and looked around twice. Seeing that the people around him were sitting on their horses intently, and did not pay attention to them, he whispered, "You can't lighten it." β
"Who made you keep your mouth shut?" Qin Dai sat up in twos and threes, approached her and said, "What do you mean by sleeping together?" Your reputation has been ruined by you. β
Ji Wan'er looked stunned, "Alas, I was wrong, I was wrong, I shouldn't have said that." Ji Wan'er said words begging for mercy, but secretly rolled her eyes, reputation? If she really cared about this thing, would she elope out with Jiu Ye regardless of it? Besides, the two of them really sleep together every day, sleeping in and out of clothes, what is it called not sleeping together? Everyone is not blind, it is really ......
"Okay, don't be sloppy with me, let me ask you, how did the Ninth Master offend you, you have a cold face like the Ninth Master every day, uh......" said the wrong thing again.
Ji Wan'er pinched her mouth helplessly, she really can't open any pot! Turning her head to meet Qin Daixin's inquiring gaze, Ji Wan'er was deflated, and simply said, "Okay, okay!" I'll tell you straight! These days, you and Jiu Ye are pulling their faces every day, like two big icebergs, brothers' lives are not easy! "Everyone didn't dare to provoke Murong Jing, so they could only ask Ji Wan'er to ask Qin Daixin to see when the faces of these two great gods would be clear.
Qin Dai squinted her eyes and smiled, and only said: "The Ninth Master has always been like this, everyone has been with him for so long, aren't you used to it?" β
Ji Wan'er smiled wryly, "Habit is habit, but everyone is not used to you like this." You keep a calm face every day, making the cold wind swishing in the ninth master, and staring at your eyes every day as if you want to eat people. Hey, who can stand it! β
Qin Daixin had no surprise or joy on her face, she only said: "You don't know me, I, the more critical I get, the more nervous and cautious I become." β
Ji Wan'er looked at her with a ghost-like expression, cautious, this is understandable, but nervous? Where does this begin? Didn't she say that there is a more stable person in this world than the little girl in front of her? is less than fifteen, and has been calm to a realm, that is, the old man who has been rolling in the house for a lifetime, I am afraid that it is difficult to guess her true thoughts, dare to think, ruthless, resolute, and want to use the word nervous to fool through, she is a fool!
Well, if people don't want to say it, let's not force it.
Ji Wan'er sat up straight, her eyes met Duan Xing in the distance, and she couldn't help but shake her head.
Duan Xing, who was riding on the horse, gave Ji Wan'er an expression that he had known for a long time, and Ji Wan'er's cheeks were so angry that they puffed up.
Duan Xing persuaded her early in the morning, saying that the young couple was obviously making trouble, and asked her not to get involved, according to the temper of these two people, even if there was anything, they would not listen to others. These two people are too similar, they all have the same temper, and they are very strong, she can't inquire about anything she goes, and she makes herself unhappy, why bother!
She didn't listen to persuasion at the time, but now that she thinks about it, Duan Xing is really right!
Ji Wan'er sighed, this day has to be boiled.
A group of people slowly moved forward in this oppressive atmosphere, the farther and farther the procession went, the desolate scenery gradually became vivid, I don't know when it began, the number of people gradually increased, not those hurrying, full of vigilance of the foot merchants, but living in the grassland, stationed in the grassland.
The ancient low-rise buildings have replaced the ruins of the desert steppe, the humble market is scattered with a few small stalls, and the children play in coarse cotton clothes, and the rather depressed town is now friendly and lovely in the eyes of everyone.
Bianwu Town, one of the many small towns close to Wana, belongs to Dayong, but because of the regional relationship, the customs and customs here are closer to Wana. This is a must for all illegal caravans between Dayong and Wana, where people repair and at the same time inquire about information and prepare to go to Wana.
Qin Daixin had done her homework before she came, and there was also a Luoying Town in a hundred or ten miles west of Bianwu Town. It is closer to the border with Vana, and it is harassed by bandits all the year round, and the people are not able to make a living, and the people have been cultivating and picking hard all year round, and often when it is time to harvest, they will cheapen this group of bandits. They do all kinds of evil, whether they rob or rob, and they are no longer adulterers with women, but they do not murder. The Vana people are not kind-hearted, but they do not want to kill chickens for eggs, they let the people of Luoying Town multiply, only take the income of their labor, but do not kill people. The ancients were pedantic, always thinking about what homeland is difficult to leave, although the days are difficult, but they are unwilling to leave their hometown, to seek a way to survive elsewhere, come and go, this Luoying Town has become a supply station for the Wana thieves.
Luoying Town is like a barrier for Bianwu Town, if all the people in Luoying Town are gone, then the Wana people will not care about the journey of 100 miles, and they will arrive after a few hours.
Qin Dai retracted her thoughts, and carefully looked at the unsightly scenery in front of her, the laughing children, the old man basking in the sun at the base of the wall, the strangers who came and went in a hurry, and the passers-by like them, how many of them were locals and how many were outsiders in this scattered market town?
Qin Dai had a hunch in her heart, and the big hands stretched out towards them seemed to be not far from them.
"Master, what is there to see?" Xue Qing came to Qin Daixin's side and asked in a low voice.
Qin Daixin stroked the smooth wooden railing with a pair of jade hands, and only said, "It's nothing, this place can actually be regarded as a grassland, right?" "The landforms are all plateau grasslands, but now they are divided into two countries, Qin Dai thought of the fifty-six ethnic groups in later generations, and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Anything that wants to be mellow takes time.
"But no, you look at the clothes of the people here, there are the costumes of our Dayong, and there are also the costumes of the Wana people, and the climate here is the same as that of Wana, and the customs and habits are similar to Wana." Xue Qing sniffed and touched her face, this town is close to the desert, there is already little rain, and this year is a drought year, so there is even less moisture in the air. When people come here, they can't help but feel a little uncomfortable, dry and uncomfortable.
"Where's the Ninth Master?"
"With everyone to arrange a place to live, this shop pΓΉ is really simple, and the Duozi Village can not be compared at all, there are few single rooms, and the master is afraid that he will have to settle down."
Qin Dai's eyes were faint, and he only spit out two words: "It's okay." β
