Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Queen of the Western Regions

Li Luo and the three of them smiled silently, and Cheng Jiyuan said suddenly: "Wu Lao smiled." ”

Shen Xiangdong laughed and said: "The two masters are reasonable, how can the old man laugh." It's night, rest early, and get up early tomorrow. ”

After saying that, he got up and saluted, Li Luo pulled over Hu Chajing, who was still angry, and got out of the tent, Cheng Jiyuan wanted to send someone to send Shen Xiangdong back, but Shen Xiangdong politely said that he would stay.

After leaving the camp, Hu Chajing said angrily: "What a group of fanatics who don't know the height of the sky, why didn't the general let me teach them a lesson." ”

Shen Xiangdong chuckled: "They all say that they are businessmen who don't know the height of the sky, why should General Cha be angry with them." ”

"This surnamed Zhao is open-mouthed, unabashed, and what he says is too ugly."

"Hehe, General Hucha forget it, I've heard it worse than this." Li Luo also persuaded, paused slightly, and continued: "But what they said is not unreasonable. ”

"Huh?" Hu Chajing was stunned.

"We can't control the life or death of these merchants." Li Luo said soranly.

The three of them were quiet for a while, and when they were about to arrive at the camp, Li Luo spoke: "No matter where it is, the infighting of the people of Daganzhong has never stopped, and it is at this juncture that they do not forget to fight for power and power, and make the land of Xirong can be so arrogant." ”

Shen Xiangdong sighed and said: "What General Li said is extremely true, if the top and bottom work together, don't say Xirong, even if it is as strong as Mengji, he will definitely not dare to touch the land of Dagan." ”

Hu Chajing nodded thoughtfully.

Back in the camp, Chu Ying'er and the three of them hadn't slept yet, waiting for Li Luo to come back, Li Luo's heart warmed, and he ordered a few people to rest early.

Only three tents were set up, Chu Ying'er was alone, Li Luo and Shen Xiangdong lived together, and Hu Chajing and Ni Qing and Zhu Zhi were huddled together.

Chu Ying'er was unwilling to take on the responsibility of keeping vigil, but Li Luo just didn't allow it.

The weather in the Western Regions is cold, the difference between day and night is greater, and there is often some fine snow, Li Luo and the remaining few people take turns to keep vigil, and he is no exception, a few people dissuade him to no avail, so he has to take the order.

Nothing was said all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Luo and the others packed their bags early and prepared to leave. The caravan was disorganized, and there was a sound of neighing horses, and Hu Chajing muttered: "Rabble, if you move like this, you won't be able to reach the end of the Changning Festival." ”

Shen Xiangdong counted the number of days, ten days have passed, and tomorrow will be the day for the Xirong royal family to worship the ancestral mountain, and said to Hu Chajing with a smile: "What, you also want to go to the ancestral mountain to worship the god Balo?" ”

"What are you doing with it, these people are walking too slowly, it's not as fast as us going directly from Yingchou Gorge to Xirong." Hu Chajing said.

Li Luo walked over from the side, heard Hu Chajing complaining, and said in a deep voice: "Cousin, maybe we will go again on this road." ”

Hu Chajing turned his head and glanced at Shen Xiangdong, Shen Xiangdong nodded, Hu Chajing smiled, and stopped talking.

Along the way, except for Li Luo and a few people, the rest of the business travelers were all trembling, and many of them had words in their mouths, thinking that they were asking God for protection.

The scenery on the way is completely different from before leaving the customs, and Dizhou is also called a barren land in Dagan, but it is still much better than here.

The loess sand and gravel in the sky, the mountains and mountains can be seen in the distance, and the snow on the top of the mountain can be seen when the weather is fine, but it is a dry and silent in front of the eyes, occasionally there are a few birds and beasts, and they hurriedly avoid the caravan when they see it, and they can hardly see people except for a few post stations where they settled.

The road of the caravan is also uneven, and the narrowest part allows a carriage to pass through, and the Gobi desert is in full view.

The mountain may have been a high mountain, but after thousands of years of wind and sand, it was now just a hill, and it had been ground into a strange shape, and there was no sound except for the sound of the caravan and the wind.

Along the way, if there is a spring, a few low trees and some weeds will be enclosed, if there is no water, you can only see scattered dead grass, and occasionally see many trees that have dried up, and the roots are scattered and leaning in the col.

Li Luoshang saw the scenery of the Western Regions for the first time, and looked around with great interest at the sunset over the long river and the scenery of the desert and the lonely smoke, but the other merchants were in no mood and cursed a few words from time to time.

The caravan was rather bloated, and slowly marched along the road between the loess gravel, but fortunately it was quite peaceful on this day.

Except for the rollover of a few merchants' carriages on the way, there was nothing abnormal, but Li Luo and others wanted to come forward to help, but they were refused, and several people couldn't cry or laugh, and sure enough, as the people who came to the family said, these merchants were afraid that others would know the goods sold in their cars.

In the evening, the caravan stopped to rest, and the merchants began to set up camp, when suddenly there was a commotion in front, and Li Luo was stunned, not knowing what was going on, and it didn't look like a horse thief was coming.

Ni Qing hit the horse and galloped over, and reported that he had just met a caravan and merged with his own side, but the caravan he met on the way was not put together, but a whole group of caravanserais, although they were put together, but they did not move around, and they camped outside Li Luo's caravan alone, and they were clearly distinguished.

Li Luo asked, "Did you ask who it is?" ”

Ni Qing scratched his head and replied: "It is said that it is called Queen Bee, and my subordinates have not heard of it." ”

One of the people next to him exclaimed, "Queen Bee!? ”

"Huh? Who is this? Hu Chajing asked.

The merchant beside him looked at Li Luo and the others in surprise, and said, "You don't know the queen bee? ”

"I want to know what else to ask you for." Hu Chajing replied angrily.

The merchant was overjoyed and replied, "The queen bee is the leader of a merchant group that often walks around the Western Regions, and I heard that she is as beautiful as a fairy."

"Is it a woman?" Hu Chajing asked in surprise.

The merchant looked at Hu Chajing as if he was an idiot, patted his head and said: "Queen bee, how can there be a man called Queen Bee, if you still don't listen to it, if you don't listen to me, I won't say it." ”

"Listen, you go on." Hu Chajing laughed and didn't take it to heart.

"No one knows how old this queen bee is, only that since she started business, no horse thief has ever dared to rob her convoy, and in the Western Regions, it is much more famous than the six great families of Dagan. It is rumored that people look like fairies in paintings, and many royal nobles and sons of families want to get close, but the queen bee cleans herself, and these womanizers have not succeeded. I heard that there are still people who scatter thousands of family wealth, so they want to see the queen bee, and I don't know if it's true or not, but everywhere they go, everyone rushes to escort them, and some of them are the kings of a country. If we are fortunate enough to be able to go to Shuoxi with her, we will no longer have to worry about it on the way, if any of the horse thieves dare not open their eyes and rob us, they will be called back and forth. ”

The merchant looked like he was all in a glory and muttered intoxicatedly, "Maybe you can see the queen bee." ”

Li Luo and the others were slightly stunned, they didn't expect that there were still such characters in the Western Regions, so they let out a sigh of chajing, turned around and cleaned up.

Seeing that Li Luo and the others were plain and did not make a trace of waves, the merchant asked strangely: "Why, aren't you not careful?" ”

"Well, happy." Hu Chajing didn't look back.

Li Luo smiled and helped Ni Qing and Zhu Zhi set up a tent, leaving the businessman stunned on the spot, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
