Chapter 3: This is Guanzhong
All the way along Longshan to the east are big mountains, one after the other.
I don't know how long they ran, Yingkang and Zhao Boyu were both tired, and although they were riding on horses, they were also out of breath.
You must know that the horses at that time did not have stirrups, and it was all up to people to clamp their legs tightly on the horse's back.
"Hey, brother, you said that we have been running for so long, why haven't we seen Rong Di's shadow yet? Did Rong Di deliberately hide when he saw us coming? For a long time, Zhao Boyu said to Ying Kang.
"This is basically impossible, just two of us little scouts, why are people afraid of us?" Ying Kang said.
That is, ah! The army of the Qin people is not afraid, so why are you afraid of a little scout? Zhao Boyu stopped talking, so he had to follow Yingkang and continue to run south.
Having said that, it is true that he did not see the shadow of Rong Di all the way!
If you go any further, you'll be in the middle of the gate.
Is there really no Rong Di along the way?
Could it be that there is no Rong Di on Longshan anymore?
Where have the Jundis gone?
"Yingkang, if you go any further, it's Guanzhong, will we continue?" Zhao Boyu said, look at his clothes, and then look at Yingkang.
The meaning of his words could not be clearer, Guanzhong is the territory of the royal family, and I heard the old people say that the officials there are all wearing silk clothes, and the sun is shining, which can pierce the eyes of those who have never seen the world in the west.
Of course, Ying Kang knew the meaning of Zhao Boyu's words, and he was also stunned, should he go or not?
"Zhao Boyu, you tell me that we haven't been to the gate where the royal family is located when we are so old, can we take this opportunity to take a look?" Ying Kang said with some reluctance, "Anyway, we've been running for so many days, so I can't bear to stop here!" ”
Hearing Yingkang's words, the seed of uneasiness in Zhao Boyu's heart was also ignited, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Since we have come here, then let's go down to Longshan to have a look, and see if the officials in Guanzhong are all wearing clothes made of silk, and whether they can blind our eyes." ”
When he said this, Zhao Boyu swallowed his saliva, "I also heard that Guanzhong is a very wealthy place, where the women all look like fairies, and I don't know how beautiful they are than the women of our dog hills." ”
How beautiful the women in Guanzhong are, Yingkang has never seen them, in his eyes, the most beautiful woman in the world is Zhao Ying, the daughter of the Inuqiu Ling family.
Could it be that the woman in Guanzhong is more beautiful than Zhao Ying?
"Let's go, let's go to Guanzhong." Ying Kang said.
"Let---'s go," Zhao Boyu also said, "It's just that our clothes won't make people see at a glance that we are wild boys in the West." ”
"This?" When it came to clothes, Yingkang also hesitated.
The Qin people are still black, and their clothes, flags, chariots, and even horses are almost all black as they can imagine.
Wearing this kind of black clothes to stay in the dog hill, everyone feels nothing, but once they come to Guanzhong, compared with those richly dressed nobles, the gap will come out.
They are all glamorous and beautiful, exuding an aristocratic temperament; Look at yourself and Zhao Boyu again, one by one, as if they were dug out of the ground, gray and dirty, and their bodies exuding this burst of sour smell.
Yingkang is a teenager, which is the age of beauty.
As soon as he heard Zhao Boyu say this, the faint inferiority complex in Yingkang's heart was stimulated, and he thought for a while: "Since this is the case, then we can take a look from afar; Or pretend to be the people in Guanzhong, and go into the city to have a look. I don't believe that all the people in the gate are dressed in silk clothes. ”
Yingkang knew that clothes made of silk were very luxurious, and they were by no means something that ordinary people could wear.
"Okay, then let's go down the mountain and have a look."
A teenager is a teenager, full of curiosity and freshness about everything.
The two teenagers finally walked out of Longxi and came to Guanzhong, the heart of the Zhou royal family.
When they came to Guanzhong for the first time, Yingkang and Zhao Boyu were fascinated, shocked, and even shocked by the scene in front of them.
It's so good in Guanzhong!
The land is fertile, flat and smooth, and there is no end in sight! The silver belt of Weishui wraps around the land of Guanzhong, nourishing the rich Guanzhong.
It was already autumn, and in the fields, the people were working hard, and the golden millet (shǔ millet), and wheat could not be seen.
The autumn wind blew, took a deep breath, and filled my nose with the scent of crops.
Looking at this harvest scene, Zhao Boyu's eyes immediately filled with tears.
"Why are you crying?" Ying Kang asked puzzled.
"I, I, I really want to cry, look at this rich place, thinking about our barren dog mound, I can't help but want to cry, we Qin people are too bitter."
Yingkang knows that in the eyes of the people of Guanzhong, Inuqiu is the west, the west is the west, and the border is the border. Together, the western frontier is the western border.
It is a poor, barbaric, and ignorant place, no different from Rongdi in the northwest, and there is certainly no way to compare it with Guanzhong.
Seeing the tears in Zhao Boyuan's eyes, Yingkang was also deeply moved, and stepped forward to pat Zhao Boyan and said: "Don't be sad, didn't my father say it, he plans to lead us Qin people out of Dog Hill and in the direction of Guanzhong, one day we will come to this place to live." ”
After listening to Yingkang's words, Zhao Boyu nodded heavily, "I still want to marry a woman from Guanzhong." ”
As soon as he heard this, Ying Kang wanted to laugh a little, you are a poor boy in the west and still want to go to Guanzhong as a wife, even if you are dreaming, you have to be a little marginal!
But when the smile came to his lips, he stopped it. Because at this time, he, like Zhao Boyu, was in the season of youth, which was the age of dreaming.
Then let's have a big dream of life!
"Let's go, the land of Guanzhong is ahead." Along the path on the side of the mountain, the two came to the land of Guanzhong for the first time.
As soon as he came down the mountain, there was a family on the side of the mountain, and Yingkang saw the fur of a wild goat hanging in front of his family's house, which seemed to be a hunter.
So Yingkang stepped forward and prepared to knock on the door.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Boyu hurriedly stopped him.
"I'll go talk to the master and keep our horses with him, otherwise pulling the horses will be too ostentatious and will attract the attention of others."
This is also true, Zhao Boyu let go of Yingkang when he heard it.
Ying Kang stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Who?" An old voice came out, and then the door opened with a "creak".
"Old man, we are passing merchants, and we want to keep our horses with you for half a day, and we will come to fetch them in the afternoon. I wonder if the old man is willing? ”
The old hunter looked this Yingkang and Zhao Boyu up and down, "Hmph---, you are not passing merchants, you are scouts of the Qin people. ”
Yes?
Ying Kang and Zhao Boyu were taken aback when they heard this, and immediately put their hands on their swords, and after running so far, some people recognized them as scouts of the Qin people.
