Jia Luobin said with his hands raised in front of his chest, rubbing against each other. The old man was still a little hesitant, but he didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he had to take it out of his money bag and throw it to Jia Luobin.
Jia Luobin immediately came to his senses, took the silver with both hands, and said with a wry smile: "Old man, I have more than one or two pieces of silver in this news." ”
Jia Luobin's face smiled very obscenely, and in the eyes of the old man, he was a leper dog.
The old man glanced at him and said, "What kind of news are you that can be worth a tael of silver?" If you don't want to say it, give me back the money. ”
Jia Luobin laughed, "Aren't you afraid that I will take your money and run away?" ”
The old man also learned from Jia Luobin and smiled: "You dare to run? Xiao Lao'er has also been in this town for five or six years, if you dare to run, I won't shout out about you buying fakes, I will see if the people in the whole town can let you out. ”
Jia Luobin shook his head and said, "You're too worried, what am I running?" Don't you just want to know about Liaozhou, it's not like I haven't been there, I'll just give it to you. ”
The old man pulled his face and said, "Then say it quickly." ”
Jia Luobin looked east and west, and then looked at the sunset on the horizon, feeling a little anxious. He didn't want to waste time here.
"At the beginning of spring this year, I went to Liaozhou, good guy. I've heard about how good Liaozhou is, but I went to see it and found out, huh. The countryside in Liaozhou is full of rice fields, and the granaries of every family are full. and those who planted wheat, and the wheat was not abundant, but was not reaped, and most of it was planted in the ground. ”
The old man's eyes straightened when he heard this. Most of the military rations of the Tianwu border army were transported from Liaozhou, and no one knew that Liaozhou was extremely rich, but when I heard Jia Luobin say this today, my heart was even more shocked.
Jia Luobin saw that the old man's expression softened, and hurriedly continued: "That place not only has a lot of food, but everyone has money, I have been to the market in Nanning, Liaozhou, good guy, there are a lot of people." It's shoulder to shoulder, foot to foot. I think the most important thing is that everyone in that place has land to plant, and his Royal Highness the king divides the land to the people. ”
Little by little, the old man's mouth opened into a circle, and his eyes remained motionless, as if he was enchanted.
Jia Luobin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the old man's face, he was like a mirror in his heart, where had he been to Liaozhou. He was born in Yizhou, and he has been as far south as Huazhou. Even if you go to Huazhou and Liaozhou, it is still tens of thousands of miles away.
The old man was really shocked, he never thought that there would be a real place, it was simply a paradise. When he came back to his senses, he saw Jia Luobin about to put a donkey on the cart. The old man hurriedly asked, "Young man, where are you going, are you going to Liaozhou?" ”
Jia Luobin sat on the donkey cart and said to the old man: "Old man, I didn't want to say it to you, but I want to think about it, tsk, oops." Jia Luobin looked embarrassed, and couldn't open his mouth when he wanted to say something.
The old man did not hesitate this time, and took out a tael of silver from the money bag and threw it to Jia Luobin.
Jia Luobin stretched out his hand and shouted that he accepted the silver with the same agility, and touched the silver in his hand to buy flowers, and couldn't help but be happy when he was low. He jumped out of the carriage with a mysterious expression, looking left and right as if he had done something wrong. He took two quick steps, squatted in front of the old man, and whispered: "You have spent the money right, I really have a big day." ”
The old man was really nervous, and he looked left and right as if he was infected. "What's the big news?"
Jia Luobin whispered: "I went to Hankang in Linzhou two days ago, and I heard a big news!" ”
The old man frowned and said, "What's the big news?" ”
Jia Luobin put his face closer, "Tagan is going to fight us, and he was in Sarin County in Linzhou half a month ago." ”
The old man was even more shocked when he heard the news. There are many strange environments on the Tianwu Continent, and the Tagan Desert is one of them. It is located in the northwest direction of the Shengle Continent and is tens of thousands of miles wide. There are 21 countries in the Tagan Desert, among which the most powerful ones are the Cheshi Kingdom, the Qule Kingdom, the Shule Kingdom, the Xijimi Kingdom, the Wuyi Mountain Leaving Country, the Wuqi Kingdom, and the Yanqi Kingdom. They were known as the Seven Heroes of Tagan by the Tianwu Imperial Court. These seven countries are very powerful, and their people are known for their fierceness.
Although the combined strength of the Seven Heroes of Tagan is not as large as that of the Tianwu Kingdom, the soldiers of Tagan have always left after grabbing it, and they don't fight hard with you at all. In this way, it is impossible to resist the two states alone.
The old man thought for a while and said, "If he dares to hit our Yizhou, he must first defeat Linzhou." However, Linzhou has 150,000 Mobei troops, plus the god of war and the general of Wei Zhan. It's hard for the Tagans to hit us, right? ”
Jia Luobin pouted and said: "Alas, do you know that this time is different from before, Tagan dispatched the Cheshi Country and the Qule Country, which are the two overlords of the Tagan Desert. When I went, many people on the Linzhou side had taken refuge elsewhere. Do you know why I'm in such a hurry to leave? ”
The old man unconsciously asked, "Why?" ”
"It's very likely that Tagan is serious this time, and it will be too late if you don't leave. If we hit this later, we won't even have time to run. Jia Luobin is not alarmist, he has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and his judgment is extremely sharp. This time, the Tagan people will not give up.
The old man's face was sluggish, he was really confused, he had already wanted to go south, plus he had no family and lived alone, it was very convenient for him to go. But if you go from north to south, once you encounter something unexpected on the island, that old life will be explained on the road.
When the old man heard Jia Luobin's analysis just now, he suddenly felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and began to clean up his stall.
After Jia Luobin finished speaking, he went straight back to the donkey cart and began to do the last process before doing another one, tying the rope to the donkey cart to prevent the goods on the cart from falling on the way.
There was only the last light left, and the market was no longer as lively as it had been in the morning, and the vendors on both sides of the cobblestone road had begun to pack up their stalls.
"Boom, boom, boom, puff, puff, plain" All the people in the bazaar suddenly noticed that the ground seemed to be trembling. The goods on the coals trembled slightly like ants on a hot pan.
Jia Luobin also discovered this sudden situation, and he looked at the entire market where the people had put down what they were doing, and the big guys all looked towards the sound of "boom".
I saw the rolling yellow sand rising in the north of the town, and an older old man was the first to react, he shouted loudly: "It's the Shuofeng people, the Shuofeng people are coming, everyone run, run!" ”
A thunderclap sounded in everyone's heads, and the many vendors in the bazaar desperately packed up their goods. The pottery vendor hurriedly loaded his pottery onto the ox cart, and because he was so nervous and hurried, the vendor himself accidentally broke several pottery, and the more nervous he was with each pottery, and the more nervous he was, the more he was in a hurry.
The rice vendor was even more desperate to carry the goods, and he didn't even know that the rice bag on his body was leaking, and the whole ground was sprinkled with white and crystal rice, and he stepped on these grains, and his heart was dripping blood.
Although the old woman who sells vegetables is anxious in her heart, she has more than enough heart and not enough strength. She hunched over and held the hard work she had planted with a pair of withered yellow hands, and he would rather die here than give up the greens in his hands.
Only Jia Luobin was the strangest on this street, he immediately took the donkey on the cart, looked back at the yellow sand in the sky, and his face was full of worry.
He didn't bring any goods, but only silver, not even heavy copper coins. He knew that he had to flee lightly, and bringing a dozen copper coins with him would only drag him down.
Jia Luobin did not stay any longer, he led the donkey, galloped south, and disappeared from the town in a short time.
The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer, and the heavens and the earth are trembling even more, and some desperate vendors are still cleaning up their stalls. All they have in their eyes is money, and even if the people next to them run out, he is still packing his goods.
The sound of horses' hooves had reached the outside of the town, but the vendors on both sides of the stone road were only halfway there. They didn't think about what would happen to them.
Thousands of horses sat large men dressed in animal skins, all with bows and arrows on their backs, and scimitars in their hands.
Most of the people of the town are hidden in their homes, and they are reluctant to leave behind their humble houses, carefully cultivated land, and everything they have worked so hard to manage.
Thousands of wind knights rushed into the town like the wind, and the vendors on both sides of the stone road were desperate when they saw the long knives that flickered brightly. They regretted it.
The sword in the hand of the Wind Knight is like a scythe, and it quickly harvests life. The old woman who sold vegetables stood tremblingly beside her vegetable basket, and the whole person was like protecting her own child, protecting the vegetables. But what was waiting for her was only a cold butcher's knife.
His head fell to the ground, and he kept rolling, and his eyes were covered with mud and he didn't blink at all. The tumbling skull quickly dried up like a leaky water bag.
Pillars of blood spurted into the sky on both sides of the stone path, and then sprinkled down again. Still hot blood fell on the ground, on the house, on the horse, on the head of the Wind Knight.
Two or three thousand Wind Knights seemed to have been bred from the yellow sand outside the town. In their eyes, there is only food and money, and life is just for venting.
On a small hill not far from the town, a man of about thirty years of age, led a tired donkey, stopped at the top of the hill, and when he looked back, he saw that the town was gradually bursting into the sky. A mournful wail echoed throughout the town.
There was light and confusion in his eyes, he didn't understand what was going on in the world, was this the only way to solve his sister's problem?
The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the howls became more and more harsh, and he didn't dare to linger longer, but just glanced at it from a distance and turned away. At least he had to make sure he was lucky.
