Chapter 8 The world is full of pig teammates

Tie Xinyuan, who was very disappointed in Meng Yuanzhi, missed Wei Chi a little at this time, and wondered if the little girl had safely crossed this Gobi and returned to her lair.

If even she is finished, she will really have to start from scratch in the Western Regions.

Looking at the panicked camel caravan, Tie Xinyuan sighed again, this time, I am afraid that all the camels will have to be thrown away in order to get rid of those Western Xia people.

Musin's face was extremely ugly, and when he was in the poplar forest, he only wanted to chant sutras to his dead companions to go to the heavenly kingdom of God.

There was absolutely no intention to bury or cremate all his companions, Meng Yuanzhi's self-righteous move just made him have to flee in embarrassment.

As long as there is a little brain, no one will choose to burn those corpses in the daytime, and lighting the fire means telling the Tangut people that there are still enemies here......

In this group of people, only Tie Xinyuan gave him a trace of comfort, at least this young man knew to follow him as soon as he left, which means that he also knew that it was very inappropriate to do so.

He is very clear about the importance of the dead and the living.

So he beckoned to Tie Xinyuan and motioned for him to come over.

Tie Xinyuan jumped off his horse and walked to Mu Xin's side and said, "Teacher, we should not stay here for a long time, we must reach Yiwu Prefecture as quickly as possible, otherwise we will not be able to survive the cold wind here." ”

Pointing to the still burning poplar forest, Musin said, "They're still there." ”

"The dead are dead after all, and the living will continue to trek, their road is over, and our long road has just begun."

Mu Xin nodded and said to his subordinates: "Take their souls with you, and we will go home." When the date palm tree bears fruit, its presence will be tasted in the dates, which are sweeter than honey, because it is God's arrangement. ”

Tie Xinyuan didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, which did not prevent him from looking at Mu Xin adoringly and repeating his words. Then tell Xu Dongsheng.

"If I die, you promise me that you must find a way to bring my body back, even if it is salted to make bacon, and if you really can't bring my whole body back, you must remember to bring my ashes back, not think of me when you eat melons."

Xu Dongsheng said very seriously.

"Do Persians and Albanians have the habit of eating and remembering their companions and ancestors?"

Xu Dongsheng shook his head and said, "I don't know, I haven't heard of it." ”

Tie Xinyuan pointed to Mu Xin, who was walking in the front, and said, "It will be there soon." ”

"It's just a shy, and you'll hear it a lot in the future. Don't take it too seriously. But how did that powerful-looking Meng Yuanzhi look like an idiot? Was he like that before? Doing things without thinking about the consequences at all? ”

For Xu Dongsheng, who has lost his camel and comfortable food basket, Meng Yuanzhi is his biggest enemy at present.

Tie Xinyuan said with a smile: "When I was in the palace before, this kind of person only knew how to carry out other people's orders, and he had never been a master, once he let them make their own decisions, he would be like this."

The generals in the Great Song Dynasty were like this, and the civil officials came to do everything for them, and even helped them draw the formation diagram. They're only responsible for charging into battle, and you don't have a brain, you have to understand a little. ”

Xu Dongsheng spat and said, "This is the top secret of the Great Song Dynasty." It's better for you not to talk nonsense in the future, my wife and children are still counting on them to protect it. ”

Looking at Meng Yuanzhi as he spoke, he shook his head in disappointment.

Meng Yuanzhi also knew that he had done something wrong, and seeing that Tie Xinyuan and Xu Dongsheng had no intention of talking to him, he rode on his horse and looked up at the blue sky without saying a word.

Tie Yi, Tie Er, they tightly surrounded Tie Xinyuan and Xu Dongsheng in a circle. No matter how the war horses run, this formation will not change, and their control over the war horses has indeed reached a very high level.

However, in this way, the whole camel team was immediately divided into three circles, the first circle was the circle with Musin as the core. The largest number of people, and the most powerful.

The second circle is the Song circle with Tie Xinyuan and Xu Dongsheng as the core, although the number of people is small, their strength is very strong, but it is not obvious.

And the third circle is the circle headed by Meng Yuanzhi, there are a lot of people in their circle, but most of them are some stragglers collected along the way, who luckily did not die in the hands of the Western Xia people, and now they are like frightened birds, without combat effectiveness.

There were too many people, all the supplies were lost, and eating immediately became a problem, and when the three circles camped at dusk, many people had no tents, not even food.

Including Mu Xin did not have a tent, seeing Mu Xin sitting cross-legged on a blanket, ready to survive this cold night, Tie Xinyuan sent his tent to Mu Xin's side, set up the tent beside him without saying a word, and returned to his place after saluting Mu Xin who was silently chanting, Mu Xin's serious face had a little smile.

He didn't care about a tent, let alone camping in the wilderness, what he cared about was the meekness and reliance that Tie Xinyuan finally showed.

"You've got a fart for sending the tent over, and you've got the ability to send your sheepskin sleeping bag over." Xu Dongsheng didn't know why he was very upright at this time.

There was an iron pot on the bonfire, and millet porridge was boiling in the iron pot, Tie Xinyuan threw a piece of salt into the rice porridge and smiled: "I'm still growing up, what should I do if I get cold at night?" Don't you see that those men have covered Musin's tent with blankets? I can't freeze. ”

"Then take care of your rice porridge, at this time, others don't even have to eat naan, you still have to drink porridge, be careful of being attacked by others."

"Attack a fart, this is for Mu Sin."

"Musin can't drink such a big pot."

"Who told you you was going to give it all to him? It's good to give him a bowl, this godliness is a truth, don't look at our big fish and meat tribute, who is the last person to eat the tribute? ”

Xu Dongsheng laughed and said: "Lao Tzu likes to eat pig's head in the tribute......"

After a large bowl of thick rice porridge with salt was served to Mu Sin, Mu Xin took it with a smile, but scooped a spoonful out of the bowl and put it in the bowl of a young Persian boy, encouraging the child to eat first and eat more, hoping that he would grow into a brave warrior.

This scene was seen by Tie Xinyuan and Xu Dongsheng, the two glanced at each other, shook their heads together, and then snorted and drank with their porridge bowls.

Because they are timid, they are very well prepared, not only carrying a lot of millet, but also the dried naan is very full.

What Meng Yuanzhi was eating was given by Tie Xinyuan, the cured mutton with the hot naan cake tasted very good, and he ate it very sweetly, ignoring the hungry eyes of the stragglers around him.

When you are in the desert, everyone is responsible for their own lives, and helping each other in the desert is a very dangerous thing, and it will not increase the affection, it will only put you in a more dangerous situation.

If, according to the old caravan rules, there were no people to supply, and the supplies in the caravan were not enough to satisfy everyone, some people would be abandoned.

And this time, because of Mu Sin, the camel team had to take in those people they met on the road, even if Mu Sin's guards and packers were willing to share their food with those people, naturally, Xu Dongsheng and Tie Xinyuan had no such obligation.

The sheepskin sleeping bag is a good thing invented by Tie Xinyuan, the leather of the bare board is outside, the warm wool is inside, and the outside is sewn with a layer of soft cowhide, as long as it gets in, even if it is cold weather, as long as the mouth and nose are exposed, the inside of the sleeping bag is as warm as a spring day.

But there are not many such things, when Tie Xinyuan sewed this thing, Xu Dongsheng was still laughing, saying that this is something that only children use, and after using it, he began to exclaim that this is indeed a good thing, but as a result, only four were made, and he met Meng Yuanzhi, a fool, who burned the poplar forest.

Tie Yi and they naturally have it, even Tie Liu, who was holding a long sword and keeping vigil by the fire, wrapped himself in a sleeping bag, leaned on a half-slope, and lazily guarded Tie Xinyuan, who was already asleep.

Meng Yuan sat cross-legged by the fire, and there was an old sheepskin sitting under his buttocks, I heard that he was practicing qi, Tie Xinyuan shrank in the sleeping bag and looked at it sideways for a long time, but he didn't find anything special.

Just when he was just falling asleep, Meng Yuan suddenly opened his mouth, and a mouthful of white gas spewed out of his mouth, squirting straight five feet away. A long roar like a dragon's roar sounded in the camp, startling Tie Xinyuan to be the first to get out of his sleeping bag, and just as he was about to saddle up and mount his horse, he realized that it was a false alarm.

Mu Xin got out of the tent, his eyes stared at Meng Yuan for a long time, and then he said with admiration: "The Central Plains Qi Practitioner really deserves his reputation. ”

Just as Tie Xinyuan was about to go back to sleep in his sleeping bag, Mu Xin sighed and looked at the bright moon in the sky and said, "Prepare to go." ”

Tie Yi folded Tie Xinyuan's sleeping bag and tied it to the horse's buttocks, and with a force on Tie Xinyuan's waist, Tie Xinyuan stepped onto the war horse.

Xu Dongsheng roared out of his sleeping bag, cursing a certain person in his native dialect, and hurriedly packed his bags with the help of the servants.

Meng Yuanzhi breathed a full sigh of tea, and when he jumped up from the old sheepskin, he found that the whole team was about to start setting off again.

Because of this long howl, the howls of the four wild wolves were endless.

Since the wild wolf can hear it, then there is a reason that the Tangut people can't hear it......

Meng Yuan saw that Tie Xinyuan was still waiting for him there, his heart warmed, he picked up the sheepskin and stepped on the war horse, came to Tie Xinyuan's side and said, "I didn't expect that there was a breakthrough in Qi training tonight, I should have celebrated, but I didn't expect it to cause trouble again." ”

Tie Xinyuan took out a copper bottle with a flat mouth from his arms, pulled out the stopper, drank a big sip of the grape brew inside, and then handed it to Meng Yuan and said: "Naturally, we should celebrate, now we will take a moment, and it will not be too late to celebrate when we are settled." (To be continued.) )
