The communication between Kazam and Qingluan is actually using the psychic magic taught by the Capricorn monks to obtain Qingluan's mountain eagle language system.

Combined with an ancient map drawn on sheepskin, the meaning of every cry, every movement, and every look of Qingluan is clear.

Then he handed over this reconstructed special bird language to Gulando, sentence by sentence.

With the supreme intelligence and the fate given by God between her and Qingluan, it only took this little girl two days to learn all the tricks.

Especially the Sanskrit heavenly language, which no one can understand, and the wonderful thing that can communicate with the hearts of birds, the ancient landoon is even more penetrating.

This is also thanks to her talent for language, the ancient Sanskrit of the poisonous country, few people in the world can speak and use it, and Gu Landuo doesn't know from which passing merchant learned such skills.

No wonder my mother reiterated again and again that this little girl would be an indispensable ear and tongue on our way west to Rome, and it seemed so.

"Brother, let's do an experiment and see if Qingluan can find you!"

On the afternoon before leaving the High Annex, Gulandora took all of our westward members, Qin Chong, Liu Zhen'er, and Shamihan, as well as Hesrul and Langton, to play a game of searching for people in the desert mountains outside the city.

This girl seems to be bored and playing, but in fact, she is making careful preparations for our trip.

Walking in a strange foreign country, I am most afraid of getting lost.

If Qingluan really learns such a magic skill, and finds water sources, pastures, inns, and people for us on the way, then we can have no worries along the way!

"Good! What should I do? I asked curiously.

"Let's go to the Salang Pass fifty miles away, you be a lost merchant, and see if my Qingluan can find you!" Brother, there must always be a picture of Qingluan coming to save you in your mind, so that our heads will emit an invisible light wave, and Qingluan can follow the light wave to find where you are! This is the spiritism that the venomous monk said, you must remember it! After Qingluan finds you, ask it to bring this silk handkerchief back, and we know that you are still alive and will come to meet you! ”

After the order, Gu Landuo and the others, under the leadership of the eldest son of Langdong's cousin, took Qingluan on his horse and galloped along the official road by the river to the Salang Pass in the northwest direction.

That kind of excited and curious posture, when I was a child, I took a group of children to hide and seek in the poplar forest and reeds on the shore of Qingfengze Lake, which is like this.

Uncle Langdong, led Grandpa, Uncle Su, and I to stop on the edge of a grassy beach at an estuary twenty miles south of the city.

Several of them went to the restaurant on the shore, and I sat cross-legged on the boulder alone, and the tracing experiment of Qingluan within a hundred miles officially began.

For me, who has reached the level of meditation, there is no difficulty in imagining the painting realm where Qingluan is flying towards me.

Soon the picture of the big bird fluttering its wings and soaring in the sea of clouds came to me, and the mountain breeze was sassy and the white clouds were fluttering.

I could even hear its breathing, and each of its wings shimmered with a cold black light as if it were right in front of my eyes.

Qingluan is getting closer and closer, going south along the Kabul River, and will soon be in the sky above the High Annex!

In this meditation, I slowly entered the realm of forgetting things and self.

About two hours later, the sound of the eagle Qingluan flapping its wings and chirping overhead woke me from my vision.

But I saw that this big bird was standing on the grass beside me, and two sharp eyes like lightning were staring at me, impatiently pecking at the grass on both sides with eagle rafters.

It's a success! Overjoyed, I took out a silk handkerchief and tied it to Qingluan's talons.

At this time, Grandpa and the others also rushed over and rewarded this Condor with a large piece of cooked beef.

Qingluan was not polite, after swallowing three or two bites, he flapped his wings and flew into the blue sky, and quickly disappeared behind the mountains in front of him along the way he came.

In the evening, when we returned to the merchant house of Uncle Langdong's cousin, Gulanduo and they also hurried back from the Salang Pass, and we were all impressed by the magic skill of Qingluan a hundred miles away to find people.

"Kazam, the old man used to be suspicious of some of the mystical tricks of the poison country, but today I can see it in person, I can't help but believe it! Ha ha! If we had learned such skills in the early years, we would have had a lot less hard work on the road! Thank you here! ”

Grandpa folded his hands with Mr. Kazam, who brought Gulanduo to the psychic entrance, and thanked him sincerely, while letting Uncle Su take a hundred gold as a reward.

"Master Yi, don't be polite, back then, the mage taught me the psychic technique and told me again and again, this method can only be granted to people who are destined, and must not be used to seek the benefit of gold beads, it can only be used to save yourself or redeem others, otherwise it will blaspheme the teachings of the Buddha, and you will be punished by God!"

Kazam hurriedly waved his hand.

"After the young eagle Qingluan has this magic skill, it can save people in fire and water in times of crisis, and it is difficult to buy it for us businessmen who wander the world all year round! Sir, just take it! Uncle Su held the gold plate in his hand and bowed down to persuade him.

"Since the villain came out, there have been no less than 100 professors, and no one has learned this mountain eagle bird language and body poison psychic spell. Miss Gulando's blessings are profound, and she helps me improve my cultivation in this life, and I should thank her if I want to say thank you! Master, the villain has taken his leave! ”

With that, Kazam bowed deeply to his master, Uncle Lang Dong, and after taking our leave, he left the yard to do his own business.

He is not proud of his achievements, but he is willing to be a subordinate with his skills.

Believing in Hinayana Buddhism, the Kushan elders who are willing to practice penance and compassion believe that everything in this life is the will of the Buddha, and regard abstinence as a great thing.

Therefore, in the eyes of practitioners like Kazam, accepting money from others is a blasphemy against one's own faith.

Just like the ragged monks you see on the way, who are begging for food, you can give them a porridge and a meal and old cloth and linen to keep out the cold, but don't give them money.

Monks who are born and who practice at home like Kazam are all in common in this regard.

"Langdong, since Kazam has such a magical skill, why don't you let him train more eagle vultures like this, so as to benefit the people of the world! Merchants like us, because they got lost and fell to the sand sea ice field because of loss and lack of water, there are thousands of them, and there are their dry bones everywhere along the way! ”

After sending Kazam away, Grandpa smiled a little regretfully.

"Uncle is difficult! To do such a beautiful thing, there must be two conditions first, one is to have a very talented bird like Qingluan, and the other is to have a master like Duo'er and niece who knows poisonous Sanskrit and has a talent for language. And only when they meet together so coincidentally, can they domesticate the Condor that is like a thousand miles and listens to all directions, hehe! ”

Uncle Langdong sighed, the implication is that if such domestication was so easy to do, he would have stopped doing other business in the world a long time ago, and this alone would allow him to make good connections and become rich in the world.

"That's a hard thing to say!"

Grandpa was a little relieved, and was no longer disappointed that he hadn't discovered such a magic skill earlier.

Over the years, this green ridge glacier and the desert have made him and his caravan suffer.

"Yes! Ay! Although this Kazam is a generation of grandmasters of body poison spiritism, to this day, he has not encountered a loyal condor like Qingluan, and all the mountain eagles he domesticated have flown away! In the end, it was a waste of work! Hahaha! ”

Speaking of his own talented buddy, Uncle Langdong laughed a little gloatingly.

Tomorrow the caravan will be departed, and the men are busy sorting out the goods in the yard, checking the bridles of the camels and horses, and Samarkand. The guys at the Luangdong warehouse do the final handover.

Qin Chong and Liu Zhen'er, who had just returned, were very reluctant to be separated from these brothers who had been sharing hardships for more than ten years.

So regardless of the fatigue on the way, he interspersed in the middle of the crowd, helped this one tighten the leather rope, helped the other to carry bags and load goods, and was very busy.

From now on, the rivers and lakes are far away, and the only way to call for cherishment is to be cherished.

The two little daughters of Langdong's cousin's family have also become familiar with Gulanduo these days, and as soon as they came back from the Salang Pass, they invited Gulanduo to the front mountain to watch the sunset.

Does this mean that loyalty is more important to subordinates than talent? Uncle Langdong cousin! I followed behind the three elders and asked curiously.

"That's natural, from the king, the commander of the three armies, down to us, the businessmen's workshops, the way of employing people is to give priority to loyalty and filial piety! Otherwise, it is like the unfed goshawk, whose wings are a little stiffer and will fly away, regardless of the owner's nurturing feelings! ”

Grandpa was the first to answer my questions, which is also his way of employing people for decades.

So all the leaders and men of my caravan are loyal people.

Whether it was Qin Chong, Liu Zhen'er, the beggars on the roadside, or the down-and-out businessmen like Hesruer and Uncle Su, or even the former thieves like Uncle Menbat, Grandpa never asked where he came from, and he won people with loyalty and trust.

After decades and more than ten years of experience, these people are now the backbone and pillars of my caravan.

"Hehe, with such a loyal and responsible talent as Su Ye, uncle is so blessed!" Uncle Langdong was worried that his grandfather's words would hurt Uncle Su on the side, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Hahaha! Old Su! The old man's Zhang Liang and Han Xinye! ”

Grandpa patted Uncle Su on the shoulder, and the two old guys laughed tacitly.

"What a blessed man the young master is! The first expedition led the team to recruit the loyal general Gurandot, as well as the divine bird Qingluan to help, and the fledgling Qin Chong, Sha Mihan, Liu Zhen'er These tiger generals, hehe! Master, Jincheng will definitely be able to take on the responsibility of the caravan, and our Qingfeng Ze Yi clan caravan will finally have a successor! ”

Uncle Su said with emotion that he has been serving the caravan for more than 30 years, and he has long regarded the team as his home.

As my grandfather, grandfather, and himself grew old, I was also worried about the inheritance of my family's caravan.

Through the observation of the road to Dongtu Jiankang last year, he felt that I was a manufacturable material worthy of the caravan, so he was also very gratified.

"It's too early to tell, wait until they return from Rome!"

Grandpa gave me a kind look, and although his words were questioning, they were obviously full of encouragement and trust.
