Chapter 149: The Wanderer
Early summer, slightly warm.
Among the pedestrians at the city gates, a few dark-skinned peddlers with flat shoulders had just bribed the sergeants who were checking the passage.
The bamboo baskets at both ends of the poles are covered with green leaves for concealment, and several shields are actually placed inside.
Because of the disharmony of the weight, the flat arm was severely bent.
At the other gate, Gilha pushes a wheelbarrow cart with several large straw stalks tied to it, and sharp weapons are hidden inside.
Following a car, Gilha pushed a wheelbarrow slowly towards the city of Chang'an, his first visit to the capital of a prosperous dynasty.
In summer, it always likes to cause rain, and the ground at this time is soft and comfortable.
The wooden wheels tumbled over the ground, leaving little trace, but the weight of the iron scimitar refused to give up, pressing the ground into a curved line.
Gilha pushed the wooden cart and came to the Journey to the West Restaurant in the West Market, pretending to communicate with a person dressed as a merchant, and handed the wooden cart to them.
Nodding his head and smiling humbly, he followed the merchant into the Journey to the West Restaurant like a dog.
The restaurant is very spacious and peculiar, and there is a high platform in the middle where a Tang man is talking and acting, which is quite interesting, no wonder the prince yearns for it, and the smell of the dishes coming from the back room alone is very tempting.
Without much stopping and observing, they followed the merchant to the second floor of the brigade, where they booked a room, paid a month's rent, and they hid most of their weapons in it.
When I came to the room, there were several people in the same costume sitting randomly.
And the merchant also smiled, "Welcome to Chang'an!" ”
"Hmph, Xu Jiang, this is your hometown, do you just let us get in and sabotage?"
Gilha also took off his disguise, straightened his back, and his dark and burly body stood like an iron tower, and said with a question.
In their eyes, their hometown is sacrosanct, and those who easily betray their hometown cannot be gullible or despise.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, Xu Jiang's face was expressionless, and he was silently stalemate with Gilha, who suddenly turned his face.
If there is a disturbance at this time, it will not be beneficial to either party, and this is not a mountain and barren forest, not suitable for lurking and hiding, and a place with many eyes and ears is not suitable for hunters to survive at all.
Eagle Changmu, who read the atmosphere and knew the current situation, smiled bitterly in his heart, he understood Gilha's temperament, he always liked to provoke, and the warriors who lived on the high ground were always fighting, and they would only obey and defeat him and be the strongest.
It is their folk custom to be honest and aggressive, and it is precisely because of this that warriors will continue to be born, and the country united by twelve large tribes will have the opportunity to surpass the Tang Dynasty, which has the most vast land and resources.
But now is not the time to fight each other, and he doesn't like Xu Jiang, a hunter, but now that his interests are the same, he can't turn his face and continue to act as a smiling peacemaker, "Great Warrior of Gilha, Xu has sworn to our gods in Tianling Mountain, and his hometown is our royal capital!" He is now a son of Zampu and a believer in the gods, just like us! ”
Xu Jiang cast a grateful gaze towards the eagle chief, and along the way, Gilha constantly provoked him, being regarded as incompetent because of his patience, and every time the eagle came out to save the scene.
"Hmph, then I hope you don't live up to Zampu's trust!"
Gil Ha skipped Xu Jiang, walked to the dining table and sat down, grabbed the dishes on the plate with his hands and ate them, which was unexpectedly refreshing, especially the mutton, which was completely different from what was eaten in other places, and there was no smell at all.
Because they had been in other cities before this, and now that the medical saint had come to Chang'an, they also went into the city together.
"This kind of mutton is even more delicious than the one in my hometown, I really don't know how these Tang people make it, it seems that just roasting it by fire is not enough!"
Gilha swallowed heavily, his hands were stained with oil and water, and his mouth was also stained with oil, humming and praising it, inexplicably more ambitious, this is what His Royal Highness the Prince wants, as long as the planning is successful, it will not be caught.
Xu Jiang stood quietly next to him, too lazy to speak, he had cooperated with the acting outside before, perhaps this angered Gilha.
"Hey, don't patronize and eat, the current situation is like this, the medical saint and the young patriarch of the barley department used to live in this restaurant, according to the information, something happened some time ago."
Eagle Chang glanced at Xu Jiang, and saw that the other party was standing on the side stupidly and correcting his identity, so he had to explain in person, originally these were Xu Jiang, who was a Han Chinese, to find out the situation outside, and only he knew best on the bad guy's side, Xu Guyang had been a bad guy before.
"What's the matter? Shall I just finish the things arranged by His Royal Highness the Prince? ”
Gilha wiped the grease off his hands with a sackcloth, picked up the wine bowl, and drank the orange-yellow ale in one gulp, and the whole thing was refreshed, and the barley wine was not as refreshing as this thing.
"Manichaeism has been destroyed, and our people have lost their news, it seems that the princess's mansion and bad people are plotting together, and the medical saint has also gone to the princess's mansion!"
"What?!"
Gilha stood up when he heard this, because he was relatively large, and he was now taller than the eagle's head.
"How many of our people are coming in?"
The eagle's eyes were unmoved, and the deep-set eye sockets on both sides of the hooked nose looked a little tired.
"Half of us are inside, and there are still more than fifty people waiting outside the city, and I plan to leave about twenty warriors outside to meet us! What's the matter, the brains of our plateau warriors are no worse than those of the Tang people! ”
Gilha was full of confidence and patted his chest and said.
"Well, forget it, let them take turns to enter the city, each dressed as a traveler to and from Chang'an, and take a good look at the current dynasty, this is the place that His Royal Highness the prince desires!"
"Why?"
Hearing the sound of Eagle Chief's sigh, Gilha didn't quite understand, and frowned, if it wasn't for His Royal Highness the Prince's request that he must discuss with Eagle Chief, he wouldn't want to listen to his dispatch anyway.
"It doesn't make sense anymore, the princess's mansion is not in Chang'an City, but in Qujiangchi outside the city! And don't rush to do it first, it's the most important thing to find out the situation! The long hours of rushing and lurking have exhausted the warriors, so it is better to repair for a while and recharge their energy! ”
Eagle Changmu sat down and sat down with the other two warriors, and at the same time moved a cushion for Xu Jiang to come and sit too, this person was still needed, so he could not be left out.
Gilha froze in place, standing for a long time before responding, "Understood, then do it!" ”
After that, Eagle Changmu arranged the remaining tasks properly, and emphasized that Gilha should not cause trouble on the streets of Chang'an, let alone act without authorization, and at the feet of the Tang Emperor, he had to be more or less cautious in order to deal with all possible emergencies.
