"Lao Yan, when will I see people, we have been gone for a day, and if this continues, I suspect that a few of us will be eaten by wolves, where is the place you brought me here."

Yan Zijing breathed in the familiar smell in the air, rode on the horse and spread his arms and said: "This is Xining Prefecture, this is the Great Northwest, this is the Great Gobi, what else do you want, Second Son." ”

Lu Ziyun said: "It's too different from what I thought, I thought it should be an endless green grassland, shepherds singing on horses, leading sheepdogs, countless cattle and sheep, can you imagine that picture?" ”

"Second son, have you not woken up in your sleep, wake up! The Great Gobi represents only desolation, and what you think of is written by literati, and it does not exist in reality, do you face reality? Don't fantasize. ”

The endurance of horses in the desert is obviously not as good as that of camels, and they take out the few who cherish it and moisten their throats, and then feed the horses well, because horses are at least worth more than people in this environment, and they can't go out of the desert without horses.

Lu Ziyun said: "How did you walk through this desert in the first place, I don't believe you can do this alone, besides, you are like me, you are powerless, and a wolf can make you give your life here." ”

Yan Zijing said: "I'm not a fool, do you think I will kill myself without a guard?" Of course I went with the caravan, and there were robbers everywhere in this place, and I was such a thin-skinned and tender scholar, do you think there is still a way to survive when you get to them? ”

"I've heard that they haven't seen women for a long time, even if they see men, they can't help it, and they will attack from behind, isn't that true?" Lu Ziyun asked with a gossipy face.

"I haven't experienced it, you ask me what I'm doing, if you want to try, it's very simple, there have been five waves of horse thieves who have followed us along the way, you just have to wave your hand, I think they will be happy to help you fulfill this wish."

"Get out, I'm not a rabbit master, at that meeting in the Guozijian, the sons there have a hobby in this area, but they like prostitution, but I feel a little perverted."

Yan Zijing said: "Since Pangu opened the world, the three emperors and five emperors have set the human nature, the combination of yin and yang is the road of human ethics, and yin and yang are all contrary to the avenue of heaven and earth, and this strange wind should have been banned a long time ago." ”

Lu Ziyun said: "Didn't my brother tell you that one day a man can become a woman? ”

"That's a medical change in appearance, they look like women, but they are still men, they still can't have children, they can't do the Dunlun between husband and wife, understand?"

Lu Ziyun gave up his humiliation, he knew that he would definitely not be able to compare with him in terms of knowledge, so he decisively changed the topic, looked into the distance and said: "This time our destination is Qiuzi and Broken Leaf City, can we hold on to the place?" ”

"Didn't you say that you want to experience life, it's not for your sake, so that I don't accept this sin, and he doesn't smell good when he follows the caravan?"

"Oh, then you mean to blame me! But seriously, you can never imagine that kind of arrogance and rudeness if you don't go to the northwest, although I am from Chang'an, but it is the first time I have seen such a scene, and it is not in vain my hard work along the way. ”

Yan Zijing said: "Sooner or later, the novelty will pass one day, until you vomit when you see it, basically what you see in the back and what you see in front of you are almost the same, the same, I hope you will still have such an interest when the time comes." ”

The wind and sand were all over the sky, and when night was about to fall, they finally met a herdsman, and unlike what they imagined, the herdsman did not show hospitality, but watched them vigilantly.

"Uncle, we are businessmen from the Great Song Dynasty, and we want to spend the night here, is it okay?" Lu Ziyun tried his best to reveal the innocence, cuteness, and kindness that a child can have.

The middle-aged herdsman held a steel fork and sneered: "Merchant? Where is your cargo? Take it out and show me it, find a reason you can at least find someone who can fool me, we like guests to come to our tent, but we don't like jackals. ”

Several sons of the herdsmen also came out, holding scimitars in their hands, and they had the momentum of starting without saying a word, Yan Zijing said: "Uncle, you should be able to see that we are not robbers, although we are armed with weapons, but only for self-protection." ”

"What are you doing here, tell me clearly, or you'd better find another place to live!"

In order to win the trust of the herdsmen, Yan Zijing took out the caravan flag of the Lu family in the west, the things on the banner are very cheesy, a pyramid composed of gold ingots, so that the flag is the symbol here, no one dares to use it except the Lu family, this is made of blood, and the people who secretly use this banner have been buried in the desolate Gobi Desert.

"Who are you from the Western caravan, how can you have their banner, are you their opponents or your own people."

These herdsmen have a good relationship with the Western caravan, and the Lu family has spent a lot of effort on them, so they are very friendly to the people of the Lu family's caravan, because their current life is closely related to the Lu family.

"We are the Lu family, from Luoyang, this time we are going to Qingtang, uncle, if you still don't believe it, give us a tent, we can live by ourselves, if it is convenient, leave us some water."

When the uncle heard Yan Zijing's words, his face changed instantly, and he threw the steel fork in his hand and said enthusiastically: "It turns out that you are from the Western caravan, please come in, boss, go and kill the sheep, we will entertain distinguished guests tonight." ”

There were three women in the tent, and they said things that Lu Ziyun didn't understand, but Lu Ziyun could probably feel that what should be said was welcome, there was no chair, Yan Zijing pointed to the ground and asked him to sit down.

The milky white mare's milk wine and the milk tea mixed with the taste of tea leaves and their unique naan cakes were piled up in front of their eyes, Yan Zijing took a big sip of milk tea with a familiar car, and then said to the accompanying people: "Try to drink the first sip as much as possible, so that we like the food they prepare very much." ”

Lu Ziyun endured the tumbling in his stomach and drank the milk tea in the cup in one gulp, and said sourly: "This tea is too little." ”

The uncle understood Lu Ziyun's words, and he was not angry, and explained with a smile: "This is also the time when the distinguished guests come that we are willing to take it out, and we may not be able to smell the smell of tea at ordinary times. ”

Lu Ziyun said: "In the past few years, the Song people have sold you a lot of tea!" Every year, no less than a million catties of tea are allocated to Western caravans, how can you still lack tea. ”

"Little brother, seeing that you are still young, it is the first time you have come out of the house to practice! Tea is a consumable, and the daily consumption is an astronomical amount, not to mention the good tea eaten by the nobles, even ordinary tea we can't buy. ”

These things were unimaginable for Lu Ziyun at home, and he found that what he felt was very different from what he saw in the book, and he understood that the things in the book were most likely exaggerated by the literati.

The meal was very pleasant, after accepting the herdsmen's kindness, everyone was very casual, after the meal around the bonfire they invited Lu Ziyun and a few people to dance, only Yan Zijing went happily alone, because at this time there will be opportunities to contact the women of the herdsmen's family.

They don't care about chastity at all, they don't care who it is when a woman gives birth to a child, as long as they can help them do things when they grow up, bloodline is dispensable to them.

In the middle of the night, when he fell asleep, Lu Ziyun found that Yan Zijing was gone, and he followed out in confusion, and saw Yan Zijing enter the herdsmen's tents, and then there were passionate voices of men and women, at this moment he was very worried that several adult herdsmen would come out with knives and cut them down.

I was frightened and scared all night, but nothing happened, and the next day Yan Zijing looked at Lu Ziyun, who had two panda eyes, and said, "Didn't the second son sleep well last night?" ”

"What the hell did you do last night, I'm almost scared to death by you, do you know what the consequences will be if you do this?"

"You see? Isn't that normal? You love me, they want to slap us, and they won't say anything! You're so rare and weird, next time if you want, I can send you in. ”

Lu Ziyun was completely speechless, this is okay! If this is placed in the Great Song Dynasty, it will be strange if it is not unloaded?

Left the tea and salt they carried, and the uncle who had never known him gave Lu Ziyun all the dried meat and water to Lu Ziyun after seeing this, feeling that they were sending less, and asked them if they wanted to bring a few sheep and cows.

Lu Ziyun rode on the horse and said, "I think you seem to have suffered a loss when you went alone last night, and we should have gone with a few of us." ”

Yan Zijing smiled: "Isn't your age the age when you are most interested in this kind of thing?" I see that you have also held back all the way, how did you solve it, is it by hand? Child, this is not good for your health, I suggest that you find a woman to vent it out, which is conducive to your health. ”

"I'm not as hungry as you, I can eat any meat, and this depends on the situation." Lu Ziyun is also a frequent visitor to the Mingyue Tower on the sea, but he always remembers his brother's teachings and does not dare to cross the red line in the slightest.

Yan Zijing scolded with a smile: "You kid, don't talk cool things to me here, sooner or later you will see a sow and feel like a beautiful woman." ”

Lu Ziyun said with a smile: "If you want to see that day, I'm afraid it's impossible." ”

After Xining Prefecture, except for Yan Zijing's calm face, the rest of the people were difficult to calm down for a long time, it was too desolate, desolate to the point of unimaginable, sparse green plants, you can't see the end at a glance, all you can see is sand and stones, nothing else except these two.

"That's not what the book says, and the people who came back don't say that, Yan Zijing, don't you already know this."

"Of course I know, what's wrong, isn't that normal? It's good to get to Qingtang, there is no grassland in this place, and the herdsmen don't come, what do you say others are doing. ”
