Chapter 113: To the Turks (1)
Along the way, you can see traces of war everywhere. Heading towards the north like an ascetic, the dry land has left areas lifeless. The grasslands spread to the sky, the wildflowers had withered, only the branches were swaying as hard as they could, and there were few living creatures except for a few elks.
Rogan felt his body getting heavier and heavier, and the horse's feet were mixed with slush and dirt, and if he didn't pay attention, he would fall into it and almost fall. Ash was even worse, he was extremely tired from the long journey, he fell asleep on horseback, and fell directly into the snow, if it wasn't for too much movement, he was afraid that it would merge with the frozen soil in the north.
Rogan: "Ash, what's the matter with you?" Can you fall asleep on a horse? ”
Ash cried out in pain: "Brother Luo, we have been running for days and nights, endlessly." ”
Yanshan is also thirsty and doesn't like to talk much. Everyone brings their own water and dry food, and at first, Rogan has not yet adjusted to the very convenient state of modern life, but he did not expect that the situation will be far more difficult than he expected.
Not only is the grassland barren, not to mention the food to eat, even the most basic water source cannot be guaranteed, sometimes halfway through the run, the horse is too thirsty to run, so he has to slow down to the ground and lick a few mouthfuls of snow. The same is true for people, Luo Gan doesn't care about any health or not, decency or indecency, and it is already a blessing to be able to drink water and survive.
Qin Yang: "Where are you all from?" I don't feel too familiar with running this kind of long distance. ”
Xiao Zhi: "From Anping County, I came to Chang'an by chance from there." ”
Luo Gan thought in his heart, where is unfamiliar, long distance often run, is to ride a horse occasionally play is leisurely, running a long distance is not the same thing, sitting in the saddle of a shock, soon will be dizzy, there are people who have heard of motion sickness, seasickness and airplane, but they must have never ridden a horse to run such a long way, otherwise motion sickness must be counted in the category.
Rogan: "Big brother, where are we all here?" Why is it still so far away? ”
Qin Yang looked into the distance and looked around, "I don't know where it is, continue to run along this road, there should be two more days." ”
"Ah, two days to go." Yanshan, who has been preserving his physical strength, finally jumped out of a sentence, it is really a toss, and all he wants is to get to the Turks as soon as possible, and don't suffer when he goes back.
The horse made a heavy wheezing sound, but there was no movement on the other side of the carriage.
Qin Yang: "Wait a little longer, Ju Guogong hasn't issued an order yet." ”
Rogan couldn't help it, so he just had fun and passed the time.
"Qin Yang, the name your parents gave you is a little pitiful."
Qin Yang didn't understand what Luo Gan meant, so he originally ran ahead of them, and came to Luo Gan's side as soon as he returned to the horse.
"What are you talking about my parents?"
"Recalling that when Jing Ke assassinated King Qin, wasn't the helper next to him called Qin Wuyang?"
"Then we can't blame our parents, we can't bear what name they name, how can there be any inappropriate reason."
Luo Gan just smiled, on the one hand, ancient people may really be constrained by loyalty, righteousness and shame, and many desires will not be easily revealed, on the other hand, they may really not think about this aspect and are accustomed to life.
"That's good, if you really like it, it's a good name."
Qin Yang nodded with satisfaction, and the anxiety on his face was swept away.
"What do you all do?" Qin Yang looked at Xiao Zhi and seemed to be a little interested in him.
"Before? I'm just a guy in a wine shop, and I don't have any big skills. Ash's gaze did not meet Qin Yang's, and his eyes were empty.
Yanshan heard the wine shop, only remembered that the sword fairy wine was delicious and sweet, and the most important thing was the Yun Niang at the door, beautiful and moving, if she was by her side, would she be fearless in the cold? Thinking about it, I fell into confusion.
"In fact, we used to do good things for the people, and whatever work we had, as long as we could do it without breaking the law."
Qin Yang was interested, "Do everything?" It's really interesting, should you pick up the baby too? ”
Luo Gan waved his hand and said, "If you don't do that, we don't have female compatriots here for the time being, so we can't do it." Qin Yang: "Really interesting?" Call women compatriots? Aren't you also a woman? Then he looked at Rogan maliciously.
Rogan: "It's not strange to call compatriots, men are also compatriots, there is no meaning of discrimination, both men and women should be equal and live in harmony." ”
Qin Yang was a little surprised, a group of people around him who looked unremarkable and unremarkable actually threatened to say that men and women were equal, this is an insult to men in the world, women can be in the same position as them?
"It's strange that there are people who speak for women's families, you are really a strange person. But since you do everything, is there someone who still asks you to fight and kill, and go into battle to kill the enemy? When Qin Yang said this, he was clearly testing the combat effectiveness of the three of Luo Gan.
"Don't let us fight and kill, we are not strong men, doing some chores in the county is almost the same, if we want to go into battle to kill the enemy, it is better to join the army directly."
After a long time, the carriage stopped, Tang Jian came out to stretch his waist and touched his head.
Tang Jian: "It's been shaking for so long, it's still so far away from the destination, people have been running for most of their lives, running over and over, and time is gone." ”
Qin Yang and the other sergeants were a little sentimental when they heard this, all of them were people who had been stationed in the frontier for many years, and once they left home, it would be difficult to reunite for half their lives.
Tang Jian: "Qin Yang, where is your hometown?" ”
Qin Yang made a gesture and replied to Tang Jian politely: "Back to Ju Guogong, the villain's hometown is in Guannei, a remote village. ”
Tang Jian pondered carefully, revealing a sad expression.
"Are your parents okay at home?"
Qin Yang: "I haven't been in touch for a long time. ”
"Why don't you write a letter back? After all, adoptive parents should not be forgotten. ”
"Don't dare to forget...... It's just that I can't write letters, I can't read a single big word, how can I write it. ”
Tang Jian looked at Luo Gan: "How is it?" Do you know how to write? ”
Luo Gan was stunned, who can't write? I just wanted to answer briskly, but suddenly remembered that in ancient times, they were all written in traditional Chinese, and I could write so many simplified characters in my own light, what use could I have?
Ash didn't have that many eyes, and quickly responded: "I can write." ”
Tang Jian gave Xiao Zhi a firm look and pointed at him, "Good boy, in the future, the writing task of our soldiers will be handed over to you." ”
Qin Yang looked at Ash excitedly, and let Ash realize that he had fallen into a big pit.
A pair of expectant eyes could be seen, and the strangers looked at Ash in unison, which made him somewhat moved. It would be a great good thing if my little ink could help them solve some problems more or less.
"Okay, in that case, when there is a letter, I'll help you write a letter home."
Qin Yang asked Xiao Zhi a little embarrassedly: "Can you also teach me to write by the way?" I always feel that I have no culture, and I am always laughed at when I go out. ”
