Chapter 111 encounters the Great Northwest
Chapter 111 encounters the Great Northwest
Musin did not force Tie Xinyuan to join the church, because Hawthorne had already set up his own door......
On the back of the camel is Tie Xinyuan's classroom, in fact, many Albanian teenagers learn in this way.
For the Albanian merchants, their lives are actually on the back of camels.
The head of a camel is always high, so the sun scenery that Tie Xinyuan sees will always have a high camel head.
The footsteps of the camel measured the earth, and the earth became more and more desolate, under the feet was a thick yellow earth, and there was only an endless gloom in the eyes.
This feeling may be related to people's mood, when they are in a good mood, they can see the vast artistic conception when they look at the desert, and when they are in a bad mood, even if they listen to "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", they can hear a trace of the sound of the country.
Therefore, Tie Xinyuan is in a very bad mood now, and they all say that there is no one in Yangguan in the west, and he and the people in Yangguan in the west are almost invisible.
Now naturally, I haven't arrived in Yangguan, and I haven't arrived in Lanzhou, and basically I can't see the shadow of the Great Song Dynasty government.
In the cold winter, all the people from the northwest who I saw were wearing old sheepskin jackets with bare plates and hairless, and their eyes flashed as they looked at this extremely wealthy camel team.
A man sitting high on a camel shook his whip, and the tip of the whip holding the red silk silk exploded on the back of a man from the northwest who seemed to approach unintentionally.
Tie Xinyuan saw that a crack had appeared on the man's old sheepskin jacket, and once the whip wrapped in steel wire was used with the right force, a whip would go down no less than a knife on the northwest man.
It may be that the whip-wielding subordinate showed mercy, and the northwest man glanced at the whip-wielding indifferently, and slowly walked to the side of the road.
Tie Xinyuan saw two black children wrapped in a sheepskin jacket with snot, and casually threw the dried mutton that he hadn't eaten at noon to them.
The slightly older child quickly reached out and grabbed it, and then shoved the dried meat into his brother's mouth as soon as possible.
This made Tie Xinyuan's mood much better and happy. And he threw the dry bread in his hand to the two brothers.
"No matter how much you have, you can't feed the people here, and if you give too much, people think that you are very rich, and the desire to rob will immediately rise.
Don't look at your kindness now, when you fall into their hands and cut off your head, they won't hesitate at all. ”
Xu Dongsheng was very dissatisfied with Tie Xinyuan's behavior, if it weren't for his low status, he would have opened his mouth to scold.
Tie Xinyuan stuffed his hand into his sleeve and said with a smile: "I haven't eaten anything in the cold weather, and you still don't allow people to grab something to eat?"
If I had fallen into this field, I would have been much more ruthless than they were. It's not strange to do anything in order to have a full stomach, and cannibalism is nothing. ”
Xu Dongsheng looked Tie Xinyuan up and down carefully, as if he knew him for the first time.
Thumbs up: "I think you have at least a 30% chance of winning." ”
"Look down on me so much?"
Xu Dongsheng shook his head and said, "I think too highly of you." ”
"If, I mean, if this contest requires me to kill the other ninety-eight people, are there any restrictions on the means?"
Xu Dongsheng said with a smile: "You are very right, you have to kill ninety-eight people in the end to become the only winner, after all, there is only one old man in the mountain." ”
Tie Xinyuan sighed and said, "It's really the worst situation." ”
Xu Dongsheng looked left and right. Seeing that the people on the camels in front and behind were napping, he whispered: "Don't be merciful, don't look at the other party's pity and deliberately release water, there are only two ends for losers." One becomes a god, and the other dies.
You don't want to be a eunuch, right? ”
Tie Xinyuan shook his head and said: "My family is the only seedling I have, and the old lady still expects me to inherit the ancestry."
That's right, Lao Xu. I met three beautiful boys on the boat, what were they doing? ”
"Slave, you will see it when you get to the Holy City. The women there are all as beautiful as flowers, the young people there are young and handsome, and when you get there, you will find that the beauties of the whole world are there, both men and women. ”
"Whose idea was this?"
"The earliest generation of mountain elders, his old man once said that in heaven, even a stone is beautiful."
Tie Xinyuan gasped, how could it be the Kingdom of Heaven again, he didn't believe it, the high-tech of later generations could not discover the Kingdom of Heaven, how did he find out.
And this crazy old man is going to project the kingdom of heaven onto the ground.
The caravan came out of a place called Shizuishan, and everyone in the team became extremely cautious.
If the place we have walked in front of me is just desolate, this place is simply barbaric.
A strong northwest wind blew from the opposite side, and the ground was filled with finger-sized gravel as it clung to the ground, and the world seemed to come alive all at once.
There is not a single tree in sight, not a single grass in sight, and no life here except in the caravans.
Tie Xinyuan's head was already wrapped in a thick linen cloth, covering his mouth and nose tightly, which made his breathing very rapid, even so, his mouth was still full of sand, as long as he moved his mouth, he could spit out a mouthful of sand grains.
Only the camels are still holding their heads high, and they have a natural protective flap on their noses, which has closed naturally.
Iprasin, who was at the forefront, had already jumped off the camel and led the camel through the wind and sand with great difficulty.
Large pieces of gravel rolled on the ground, small and small pieces of gravel flew a foot above the ground, and grains of rice slammed right on people's faces.
Fortunately, the camel is relatively tall, even so, Tie Xinyuan, who was riding on the back of the camel, felt that his two feet were about to lose consciousness, on the one hand, it was cold, and on the other hand, it was numb from being hit on the shoes by the gravel.
This made Tie Xinyuan extremely nostalgic for the cars of later generations.
A shrill whistle sounded briefly, and it was carried away by the gale.
In the sand at Iprasin's feet, two people suddenly jumped out, one slashed at the unsuspecting Iprasin's leg, and the other's long knife slashed firmly into the leg of the leader's camel.
Iprasin's screams were blocked back by the sand and gravel of the strong wind before they could even exit.
The camel at the head neighed, and fell like a mountain, its heavy cargo and body slammed down on Iprasin's body......
In the dusk of the wind, countless black shadows quickly emerged, and without saying a word, they attacked everyone in the caravan, whether it was camels or people.
Tie Xinyuan drew the swallow wing crossbow as soon as possible, but he didn't shoot at the robbers, in such a windy weather, whether it was a crossbow arrow or a bow and arrow, the lethality was very limited.
Therefore, Tie Xinyuan carefully put his feet away, so as not to be cut off, and half-squatted on the back of a camel and shot enemies at close range with a swallow-winged crossbow, which was undoubtedly much more effective.
A robber with a black veil on his head suddenly came out of the wind and sand, Tie Xinyuan raised his hand and pulled the crossbow machine, and the one-foot-long stainless steel crossbow bolt drilled into the man's forehead, Tie Xinyuan even saw that the guy's head was spurting blood on both sides, which showed that at this distance, the swallow-winged crossbow should be invincible.
The head camel fell, and the leather rope attached to the camel was cut by the robbers at the first time, and the frightened camel began to run in all directions, and Tie Xinyuan couldn't control his camel, so he had to go with it.
Fortunately, the camel couldn't run far in such weather, so it found a leeward place and curled up, Tie Xinyuan quickly wrapped his whole body in a wide sheepskin jacket and curled up on this guy's belly like a camel.
Recently, he has been unlucky and used to it, so Tie Xinyuan naturally won't complain about his current situation.
At the moment everything is fine, except that it is a little colder, there is nothing to complain about.
He can't afford to offend Mu Xin, but now he has encountered robbers, if these robbers can kill Mu Sin, Tie Xinyuan will definitely thank these robbers.
It took 12 years for Jianzhen to travel east to Japan, and it took 17 years for Xuanzang to learn the scriptures, and Tie Xinyuan felt that he could delay his trip to Persia for thirty or fifty years no matter what......
The truth is cruel, after the wind stopped, Xu Dongsheng found Tie Xinyuan, and when he took away Tie Xinyuan's leather jacket, he found that this guy had fallen asleep.
Tie Xinyuan looked at Xu Dongsheng, who had become a yellow man, and sighed: "Why didn't the robbers kill you." ”
Xu Dongsheng found the water bladder that Tie Xinyuan attached to the camel's belly, rinsed his mouth, and drank several sips violently, and then said in a hoarse voice: "The robbers have all been killed, and Elder Muxin has personally taken action, but unfortunately, Ipraxin was crushed to death by the camel." Six people were also lost in the caravan. ”
"I saw that the camels were all gone......"
Xu Dongsheng said with a smile: "The camels that ran away will come back, tell you, if you want to escape, don't use the camels in the camel team, these camels have long been used to the smell of their bodies."
Even if they run away for a while, sooner or later they will find themselves back in the group. ”
After returning to the team, Tie Xinyuan found that he hadn't run far, more than 300 meters at most, and a sudden wind and sand gave him a glimpse of the northwest.
Musin was chanting for the dead Iprahim, his body was so horrific that his entire head had been flattened by a heavy box, and one of the legs cut off by the robbers was on his body, and an Albanian was cutting open the belly of a camel and hollowing out all the internal organs, and then put the body of Ibrahim in it and buried it on the spot.
Originally, Iprasin's body was to be cremated, but there was not enough dry wood to cremate the body, so Musin had to make this decision.
After a brief ceremony, the camel caravan took advantage of the wind to stop and continued to hurry, according to Xu Dongsheng, no matter what, before the next wind came, out of the big wind outlet of Shizuishan Mountain. (To be continued.) )
