14 Mirage
Seeing that Abu and Wu Ye were insisting on exercising, Yun Niang also wanted to stretch and move, and just as she was about to do a handstand and lower her waist, Abu ran over and whispered to her that it was not suitable to do this kind of action during menstruation, which would easily cause dirty blood to flow backwards. Then let her imagine a long-necked wine urn, pouring wine down.
Yun Niang was originally a smart woman, and the metaphor of this image made her immediately understand what Abu meant, and she glanced at Abu happily: "You are smart." Then just walk back and forth in the neighborhood and do simple stretching movements.
Abu ran back to continue Zamabu, Wu Ye asked her curiously what she said to Yun Niang, and Abu said that if Yun Niang was well, she could go to see Taoyuan today.
Wu Ye remembered the peaches he ate yesterday, and when he heard that he might have to go to the peach orchard, he was immediately full of energy.
After training, after breakfast, Abu asked Yun Niang how her body felt. Yun Niang said that it was much better, and there should be no big problem.
So the three of them packed their tents and headed in the direction where the peach orchard was located. After all, according to Wu Ye, the distance is not too far. Yun Niang sat on the camel with Wu Ye in her arms, and Abu walked, leading the camel on foot.
Sure enough, after walking for more than 3 miles, I saw a lush forest in front of me, which should be the peach forest that Abu said. Wu Ye was in a hurry, and the little guy urged Abu to hurry up on the camel.
At this moment, this oasis gave them another surprise. I saw dust in the distance, like a gray cloud, moving quickly, it should be a group of large animals. When I got closer, I found a herd of ownerless wild horses, about 100 of them. When they reached the river's edge, they began to eat aquatic plants and rest, not paying any attention to the three people who stopped to watch not far away, perhaps they intuitively thought that these three people did not pose any threat to them.
The average wild horse has a large head, a thicker and shorter neck, a mane erect with a black dorsal line, and a black-brown mane and tail below the limbs. And this group of horses is tall, the leading stallion is particularly eye-catching, the whole body is snow-white, there is no variegation, the divine horse is abnormal, obviously not an ordinary wild horse, it should be a variant handed down from the original Turkic or Dawan horses.
"White Dragon Horse, that's really good." Abu couldn't help but admire that in the current era when horses are the main combat power and transportation power, the role of a horse with extraordinary foot strength is irreplaceable. It's a pity that there is nothing to do about looking at so many horses. He took out the map and made a sign at the oasis above, and now he could only sigh at the map.
"Master, when can you teach me to ride a horse?" Wu Ye was also envious when he looked at these horses, and when he could remember, he had seen those people on tall horses roaring past. This left a deep impression on his mind, so he was very concerned about horseback riding.
"Don't worry, when you're older, we'll learn." Abu comforted Wu Ye, and said in his heart that if you want to ride a horse, you must first have a horse, and it would be good to ask King Qiuzi for a good horse at that time.
The three of them continued to move forward, heading towards the peach forest. When I got closer, I saw that the peach trees were full of leaves, and the red and green peaches were hidden in them. Wu Ye was so excited that he got off the camel and ran over, seeing that this one was big and red, and that one also wanted to eat, but in the end he didn't know which one to pick.
Wu Ye unloaded the supplies, and the three of them stayed in the peach forest, waiting for Yun Niang's body to fully recover before making plans.
During the day, they wandered and played, and saw horses, deer, goats, and once two wolves who came to the river to drink. The man and wolf looked across the river for a while, did not invade each other, and walked away. Then Abu took off the crossbow bolts from the Thousand Machine Crossbow, and at the same time washed the Thousand Machine Crossbow and replaced it with a non-poisonous crossbow arrow.
People don't offend me, I don't offend people, if there is a beast that doesn't have long eyes, then give him a surprise, and open the meat by the way.
During this time they caught two hares, three pheasants, and a number of wild eggs. Whether it is roasted on the fire, or wrapped in mud and burned in a hole, the tender taste and smooth shredded meat make Yun Niang and Wu Ye feast, and the food is called a pleasure. After another two or three days, Yun Niang's body has recovered as before. When it was time to leave, they began to miss this place, and they were a little reluctant to leave.
Abu smiled: "If we want to come in the future, we can come again, it is here, I have already marked the location, and I can't run away." "That being said, it's really hard to say where it will belong and whether it will be intact or not when you fight for such a borderless land.
Seeing that the two of them were not interested, they began to guide them step by step, saying that there is actually a better place, that is really a paradise, a fairyland on earth, if it goes well, you will soon be able to see it.
So the child was quickly attracted to attention, and asked Abu where he was, and if there was such a peach orchard there, Abu said that there was, but the peaches may not be so big, but there were many other fruits, such as grapes, plums, pears, watermelons, melons, pomegranates, apples, and oranges.
Yun Niang was skeptical of his words, thinking that he was deliberately coaxing children to play, so she laughed on the side and watched Abu bragging over there.
One day while walking, Yun Niang suddenly saw a series of majestic peaks in the distance in front of her, some of which were also built on the mountainside and the top of the mountain, with chic and splendid palaces and pavilions, surrounded by lush trees. She thought it was a hallucination, rubbed her eyes, and saw that the scenery in front of her was still the same, so she hurriedly pointed it out to Wu Ye. Wu Ye also shouted excitedly: "Xianshan, I saw Xianshan." Master, look at the fairy mountain. ”
Abu looked forward, and sure enough, he also saw pavilions and mountains, and he smiled and said, "Don't worry about it, it's called a mirage, and it's a phenomenon caused by the refraction and reflection of light." Let's just take a look, we can't get to the place where we go. ”
Yun Niang couldn't help asking, "Are these scenes fake?" ”
"It can't be said that they are fake, they may be real somewhere else, and after the refraction and reflection of light, they show that place. It's like the objects you see in the mirror, except that their actual location may be far away from us. You see that the shape of those pavilions is different from the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty, so it should be the landscape of the Western Regions or other places. ”
There is a story about a caravan walking in the desert, exhausted and without food or water. Suddenly, I saw towering palaces and temples in front of me, as well as a huge lake, thinking that the Buddha had appeared and rescued them from life. So they ran to the temple, but after crossing many sand dunes, the majestic palace and temple were still ahead. They kept running, and at last the sights were all gone, and the caravan was all buried in the desert.
The temples and lakes in this story are the landscapes formed by mirages, but now the slightly experienced team leader can tell whether the scenery in front of them is a mirage or not, and generally will not be fooled.
Yun Niang looked at the mountains and pavilions in front of her, vivid and vivid, and couldn't help but think about it, "What if it's true, you see that those pavilions and trees are exactly the same as the real ones." If it's true, let's go up there for a few days. ”
"Okay, then let's keep walking, anyway."
After walking for most of the day, the mountains and forests in front of her seemed a little flickering, and Yun Niang's confidence was a little shaken.
After walking another distance, the scene in front of him suddenly disappeared without a trace. Seeing this situation, Abu couldn't help laughing, and turned around and made a grimace at Yun Niang.
Yun Niang was ashamed and annoyed, rode a camel to chase Abu, and waved Abu with the reins: "Let you laugh, make you laugh." ”
Wu Ye shouted excitedly, telling her sister to run faster.
At ten o'clock in the evening, they entered the city of Wensuzhou, which was the capital of the old Qiuzi country.
