Chapter 138: Crying in the Car
After camping, Qin Xiaozheng and Geng Shao were talking by the car, but they saw Yuwen Chengchao coming over.
"The eldest son!" Qin Xiao got up, and Geng Shao immediately stood up.
"It's been a hard time." Yuwen Chengchao came over, motioned for Qin Xiao to sit down, sat down himself, looked up at the night sky, and then said softly: "I was in the Guannai before, it was my own place, and everything can be relaxed." However, out of Kunlun Pass, it is the territory of the Vedic Khanate, and we don't know what the situation is in Tang City, but they are already hostile to burn the city and arrest people, and our caravan must be more careful. ”
"That's what the eldest prince said." Qin Xiao nodded slightly: "Eldest son, is there still a lot of way to go in Tang City?" ”
Yuwen Chengchao said: "I haven't been there in person, this is a customs trip." As far as I know, after exiting the customs, at the current speed, walking up to two, you will pass a lake, and the people who come out of the customs call it Zhuma Lake. The area from Kunlun Pass to Zhuma Lake is relatively deserted, and there are few Vedic people. After Zhuma Lake, it is the Gobi area, and the road for two or three days is deserted, and it is also the favorite haunt of horse thieves outside the Guan. However, the Vedas also resented those horse thieves and sent people to kill them, so those horse thieves were not successful, and with our strength, they did not dare to act rashly. ”
Qin Xiao thought to himself that the Udha Khanate and the Tang Dynasty still had common interests, at least for the safety of the trade route, both sides took action to suppress the thieves.
"After the Gobi, it is the gathering place of the Wudha White Wolf Tribe." Yuwen Chengchao patiently explained: "You also know that the population of the eight tribes of the Vedas was not large, and their territory today was also snatched from other tribes, so the Vedic people of the Vedic Khanate are even fewer than those of the other tribes. After a pause, he continued: "The Nalu clan is the head of the eight tribes of the Utha, although the leaders of the other seven tribes are also kings, but they are respected by Naru, and only the people of the Nalu clan are qualified to become the king of the Udha Khan. ”
"The White Wolf King is also an authentic Vedic person." Qin Xiao said with a smile.
Yuwen Chengchao said with a smile: "He is one of the eight Wudha tribes, and the Wudha Khanate has eight surnames as the bones, but under each surname, there are many families, and the hierarchy is strict. The White Wolf King lives in the White Wolf City, and their cities are naturally not comparable to ours, and I have heard people who have returned from outside the customs say that except for the royal court of the Veda Khan, which is built of huge stones, the cities of the other tribes are made of rammed earth, and they seem to be accustomed to this method of construction. Then he waved his hand and said: "It's far away, Tang City is still some distance from White Wolf City, if we want to understand the truth of the matter and even solve this trouble, we must contact the White Wolf King." ”
"In other words, we're heading to White Wolf City?"
Yuwen Chengchao shook his head and said, "The caravan can't go directly to White Wolf City. Although Chinatown is the largest trading bazaar in the Uda, it is not the only place of trade. Dozens of miles away from Chinatown City, there is also a West Wind Fort, where there is also a market, but the scale is far from the size of Chinatown City. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Before we left, someone sent another letter back." Yuwen Chengchao said: "When the Tang City was burned, many merchants rescued some of the goods, and these merchants have since moved to the West Wind Fort and temporarily settled there. The White Wolf King didn't expel them either, and it seemed that there was still business going on over there in Zephyr Castle. ”
"So the last time the Chinatown was burned, it was definitely not because of trade."
Yuwen Chengchao nodded: "Our destination is to go to the West Wind Castle, after the caravan is settled there, we will find a way to contact the White Wolf King." ”
"That's all it can be." Qin Xiao said.
Yuwen Chengchao patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder: "If you are too tired, don't insist, let the fat fish rotate them earlier." ”
Qin Xiao said with a smile: "When you get over there, the eldest prince still has a lot of things to worry about, you have to take care of your spirits on the road, and you don't have to worry about guarding at night, we will have our eyes open when we fall asleep." ”
Yuwen Chengchao smiled and got up to leave.
"Chinatown burned?" Seeing that Yuwen Chengchao was far away, Geng Shaocai was slightly surprised.
Qin Xiao bowed slightly: "The Tang City was burned, and the shopkeeper of the Yuwen family in the Tang City was arrested. ”
Geng Shao was even more shocked, but he knew that this matter was very important, so he didn't want to ask too much.
In the first half of the night, Geng Shao led people to guard, Qin Xiao was very relieved to Geng Shao, returned to the tent and slept for two hours, when he got up, it was already midnight, he stretched out of the tent, looked up at the sky, the moon was in the sky, the night breeze was blowing, but he also felt energetic.
It's also strange to say, since taking Chiguo in the mountains, Qin Xiao not only felt that his strength had increased greatly, but whenever he was tired, he only needed a short period of rest to quickly recover his physical strength and energy, and his whole physique had obviously made a huge leap.
Walking to the corner, Geng Shao carried a bow and a knife, without the slightest relaxation, seeing Qin Xiao coming, before he could speak, Qin Xiao had already said: "You go and rest first, and I will be responsible for the second half of the night." ”
"There was a cry in that carriage just now." Geng Shao pointed to the big carriage not far away, and said in a low voice: "It seems to be a woman's cry, and I don't know what's going on, so it's not good for me to ask." ”
Qin Xiao frowned, thinking that there was a cry from the carriage before, and there was another cry tonight, could it be that the woman inside thought that she was going to be sent to the Woods as a gift, so she was sad in her heart and couldn't help crying.
"Don't worry, you go and rest." Qin Xiao sighed lightly: "We are responsible for the safety of the caravan, as long as there are no horse thieves attacking, we can't take care of many things." ”
Geng Shao is not a procrastinating temperament, so he retreated.
Qin Xiao stretched his waist again, sat on the side of the car, looked up at the moon, but thought of the little aunt in his heart, I don't know if she is also looking at the same bright moon now.
But most likely, she was lying in bed and sleeping.
took a few hundred taels of silver from himself, even if he had fine clothes and food every day this year, it was enough to support.
It's just that with her character, Qin Xiao couldn't believe that those few hundred taels of silver could stay in her arms for a month.
He couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, when he was with the little aunt, he was so annoyed that he wanted to kick her out of his house, but after the separation, it was strange to say, he would always think of her every once in a while.
Maybe it's because I've been alone for many years, and in just a few days, it's hard to have someone around me to stay with, even if it's taunting each other, it's much better than being alone.
It's just that she was also chased by Zhenhou Mansion, and where she is now is the biggest mystery.
Thinking of Mu Yeji, I couldn't help but think of Pharmacist Shen who was staying in the Jiazi Prison, according to the time limit, Pharmacist Shen's sentence had expired, as long as the sentence arrived, the Jiazi Prison would never stay for one more day, and Pharmacist Shen should have been released from the Jiazi Prison.
The people of Sword Valley tracked down the whereabouts of Shen Yaoshi everywhere, but he hid in the Jiazi prison and was at ease, of course the people of Sword Valley did not expect him to come to this hand.
It's just that he is out of the Jiazi prison, but I don't know where he goes?
However, he also knew in his heart that whether it was Pharmacist Shen or Mu Yeji, they were all extraordinary people, and he should not worry about their safety.
On the contrary, it is himself, who is at ease as a little jailer in the Jiazi Prison, but now he is in exile, although he is already the riding school of the White Tiger Battalion, and he is very respected by Yuwen Chengchao, but Qin Xiao still likes the original life, and today's life, to put it bluntly, is really a step by step.
As he was wandering out of the world, a cry suddenly came from his ears.
Qin Xiao stood up and looked directly at the carriage, and the cry naturally came from that side.
Although the people in the car had nothing to do with him, the cries that came one after another along the way still made Qin Xiao very strange, and he couldn't help but walk to the side of the carriage, coughed, and the crying inside immediately stopped.
"What the hell is going on?" Qin Xiao asked softly, "Why do you cry so often?" ”
There was a sudden silence inside, Qin Xiao thought that it was a woman after all, and his voice softened: "If you need anything, just say it, you have already gone out of the customs, the climate outside the customs may be different from that in the customs, if you are not feeling well, there are doctors in the team." ”
"Yes..... Someone is uncomfortable. As soon as Qin Xiao's words fell, a woman's voice finally came from inside.
Qin Xiao was stunned and asked, "How many people are in the car?" ”
"Three..... Three! The woman's voice seemed timid.
Qin Xiao said: "Then you wait a minute, I'll go find a doctor." I thought that no matter what the identity of these women was, even if they were given as gifts, they were human beings after all, and they were not feeling well, so they always had to ask the doctor to come and have a look.
"No, you don't." A voice sounded, soft and delicate: "She will be ...... when she rests!" ”
Qin Xiao's body shook when he heard this voice.
This voice is pleasant to the ear, but the pronunciation is not thoughtful, and it has an exotic accent, the most important thing is that Qin Xiao only felt that this voice was extremely familiar, his brows tightened, he hesitated, and couldn't help asking: "You..... Are you Haniz? ”
When the woman made a voice, Qin Xiao thought of Haniz almost instantly.
The same delicateness, the same inaccurate pronunciation, the same exotic accent.
There was a "huh" sound in the car, and soon, the curtains of the car were opened, Qin Xiao was standing by the window, through the moonlight, he could see clearly, behind the window, a stunning face full of exotic customs appeared in front of him, with bright eyes and bright teeth, snow skin and jade skin, and a pair of charming eyes like stars, who is it not Haniz?
Qin Xiao changed color slightly.
He never imagined that Haniz would be taken as a gift and come to Guanwai with the caravan.
It has been a few days since the departure, Qin Xiao walked with her all the way, in fact, every time the team marched, the two big carriages were at the back of the team, and Qin Xiao led people to the back of the palace, and every day they were a few steps away from this big carriage, a carriage, so that he never knew that Haniz was actually among them.
Haniz recognized Qin Xiao, and a charming smile appeared on his beautiful face: "You..... Are you that handsome little gentleman? Why are you here? ”
"I'd love to know why you're here." Qin Xiao sighed, "Do you know where we're going? ”
Haniz blinked, shook his head and said, "I don't know, where I'm going, it's not up to me." He lowered his head slightly, his expression darkened.
