Chapter 327: Ending in Xizhou

Whether in the court, in the rivers and lakes, or on the road, safety first.

Obviously unsafe on the westbound road, sandstorms, bandits, poisonous scorpions, quicksand...... All kinds of crises, all kinds of natural disasters and man-made disasters, there is simply an illusion of learning from the West and upgrading monsters, for a person like Li Su who takes pleasure as his lifelong ambition, it is tantamount to walking through the ghost gate, and it is reasonable to have the idea of becoming a deserter.

Li Su is a mortal, and he has no shortage of bad things in mortals, and if his life is not happy, he must change it.

It's a pity that Jiang Quan didn't agree.

Li Su is the chief officer of this cavalry team, in terms of the ability to charge into battle, any person in the cavalry team is much stronger than Li Su, why shouldn't it be his turn to be the chief officer, but the official is big......

The chief officer has the idea of retiring, what will happen to the rest of the people? His Majesty's will is to send Li Su to Xizhou to take up his post, and his duty is to escort Li Su to Xizhou.

So for the rest of the journey, Jiang Quan simply stayed by Li Su's side, staring at him with his eyes, for fear that Li Su would accidentally slip under his nose.

Hardships and bitterness, stumbling along the way.

The strange thing is that since the group wiped out three or five hundred Turks that night, although there have been many natural disasters along the way, but no bandits have been encountered, even the perennial desert has been muttering, if the biggest disaster on this Silk Road, is a small group of bandits that have emerged hundreds of miles apart, every year the caravan always has to recruit a large number of skilled warriors, the prevention is the bandits on the road, some bandits are more kind, and after giving some money to send it, they will not fight with the caravan, they will retreat on their own, and they will meet more familiar faces, Maybe I'll get you a VIP discount.

Some bandits are the kind of people who are more lacking in heart. No matter how many masters there are in the caravan, they are determined to rob the caravan, so the opening scene is life and death, and in the end all the bandits are dead, and the leader takes his last breath and says I just want to grab some money, and the caravan leader stomps his feet and resentful. You said it earlier if you wanted money, and as soon as you came up, you were desperately stance, and you thought you were robbing me of the eggs in my basket......

On the Silk Road, bandits were rampant, a phenomenon that has existed since the Han Dynasty, and it has not been broken for thousands of years. The bandits belonged to different countries, there were the Qiuzi, the Tocharians, the Turks. Gaochang people and so on.

However, since Li Su's cavalry wiped out the Turks, he has never encountered bandits along the way, and he is not sure that no one robbed him......

Walking and stopping, Li Su and the thousand-man cavalry were tossed and miserable, everyone looked haggard, and Xu Mingzhu's ruddy face was even more red spots scorched by the scorching sun. The glamorous red lips had also lost their bloody color, and were as dry as old bark. Only those eyes are still bright, as clear as a clear spring, and the smile that shows Li Su every day is still bright.

There is one more Xu Mingzhu, Li Su's daily food, clothing, housing and transportation are all covered by her, and when she wakes up every day and opens her eyes, she sees Xu Mingzhu's smile at first sight. There is also a towel that is slightly soaked with water, there is a shortage of water in the desert, but Li Su's cleanliness habit cannot be overcome, Xu Mingzhu knows Li Su's strange problem, and secretly pours a little water from the skin bag every day to wet the towel to Li Su's face. In addition, Li Sube's hygiene requirements are really helpless, such as he wants to take a hot bath and so on......

The two guides hired are very experienced, there are not many cities in the desert, but the two guides know that there are many unknown small oases in the desert, the groundwater in the desert is pitiful, and the flow of groundwater is not fixed, the guides' methods are Li Su and these Han people can not learn whether to live or die, sometimes a gentle breeze, sometimes dig the surface of the sand, pout your ass and lie on it to smell the smell of the sand, the guide can judge whether there is a water source nearby.

is a very magical ability, Li Suda was very interested, and gave the guide a big pearl, pestering the guide to learn this ability. The two guides were very kind, he smiled and took the pearl, and then pointed at the fingers and pretended to be incomprehensible, Li Su patiently didn't know how long he compared with them, and the two guides didn't want to reveal a word, and the pearl ...... They laughed at it.

Li Su suddenly felt that he had done a stupid thing, the nature of this stupid thing was the same as a meat bun beating a dog, and what made him even more heartbroken was that he threw two buns at once......

The two guides are Hu people, it is said that they are from Broken Leaf City, the name is a little familiar, think about it carefully, in many legends in the previous life, a poet named Li Bai seems to have been born there a few years later, this city is far away in the sky, a thousand years later, it has become a city in a country called "Kyrgyzstan", according to this inference, Li Bai's nationality is actually ......

As a result of the kindness, he hurriedly stole all his poems before Li Shixian was born, so that Li Da Shixian had no poems to write in this life, and he was an authentic and pure drunkard. Plagiarize? Make another one, huh? Plagiarism again? The innocent poet fainted in the thatched house......

***************************************************************

After a hard, boring, and depressing journey, Li Su led the cavalry to grit his teeth and walk for another two months, and there were many bumps in the road, but he finally came through without danger.

Until one day, Li Su dozed off on a camel, Wang Zhu and Zheng Xiaolou were bored and wiped their swords, Xu Mingzhu hooked the corners of his mouth and braided the blessing bag with colorful silk threads with a smile, and the team walked in a dull and monotonous way on the vast yellow sand desert.

A scout who had been sent thirty miles away came galloping on a camel, raising his hand and shouting excitedly: "There is a city ten miles ahead!" Xizhou City! We're finally here! ”

Everyone looked up suddenly, and after a brief pause, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded like shaking mountains. The team was boiling, and the long-lost high-spiritedness and excitement instantly infected the whole team, countless people raised their hands to the sky and laughed, and some people roared hoarsely with green tendons on their necks, venting the dullness and depression that had been accumulated in their hearts for many days, and some people covered their faces with their hands and cried bitterly......

Xu Mingzhu was also so happy that she burst into tears, and suddenly grabbed Li Su's arm and choked up: "Husband, we have finally arrived ......"

Li Su rode on the camel and straightened up, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance for a moment, at the end of the yellow sand, on a barren loess plain, the outline of a low city could be vaguely seen, standing quietly in the vast yellow sand, after all the wind and frost.

"yes, we're finally here." A relieved smile appeared on Li Su's tired face.
