By the time Shen Qing came in from outside, Qin Surabaya had already covered the carpet with a layer of oilcloth, and put on it cold-cut beef, roast rabbit, stewed roe deer, and crucian carp caught from the blisters. Add a little salt and sprinkle with some wild onions and wild garlic from the water's edge. The rich aroma makes the hungry people hungry for a long time.

Shen Qing and Ma Zhi had their own farewell when they met, and at this time, Qin Sishui brought the last large plate of wild vegetables and said to Qin Lei: "Your Highness, you can eat." ”

Qin Lei instructed Shen Bing, "Go and get two jars of soju." Shen Bing happily jumped up from the ground and rushed out of the tent. At this time, soju had just appeared, and neither Qi nor Chu accepted this spicy and intoxicating high liquor. Even in the Qin State, it was not treated well by the aristocracy and only circulated at the bottom of society. If it weren't for Qin Surabaya, Qin Lei wouldn't have known that soju would have appeared in this era.

But there is one kind of person who is fanatical about this liquor - the soldier. After Qin Lei drank it that day, he felt that it was light and tasteless when he drank other wines, so he simply asked Qin Surabaya to only go to the immortal sorrel to soak wine. This time he went north, afraid that he wouldn't be able to drink spirits, Qin Lei actually asked Shen Qing to buy all the inventory burned by the immortals, and it was enough to load five carts. Boss Hua, who was happy to be burned by immortals, woke up laughing when he slept for several days.

Qin Lei and the others traveled lightly, and all the baggage was thrown behind, and they only brought ten jars of old burning. Originally, I planned to drink enough by myself, but who would have thought that in the grassland with a huge temperature difference, this old wine would become a rarity, attracting the covetousness of all the guards. Qin Lei didn't feel sorry for them to drink, but after drinking it for the first time, he fell asleep drunk until the sunset, delaying the trip for a whole day. It is because Qin Lei strictly controls the amount of alcohol they drink, and only one jar is provided every day, so there is no need to talk about it.

The more you can't get it, the better, this group of drunken guys got drunk once, and they lost interest in the light and tasteless water and wine they brought, and pestered Qin Lei every day, hoping that he would be kind and give him more soju.

Qin Lei's soju was packed separately on the horseback of each guard, but without his permission, no one had the heart to move. Because from the first day, he has imperceptibly instilled a thought in his subordinates: It should be yours, and His Highness will give it to you. What His Highness does not give, never covet. Day after day, it finally became a good habit.

Wait for Shen Bing to bring in the ten large wine jugs, and open them for Qin Lei to check. Qin Lei shook his head and said, "No need, I believe in my brothers." I let go of the drink today! ”

There were no guards on duty, both inside and outside the tents, cheering in unison, and some even shouted taboo words like 'Banzai'.

Qin Lei frowned, knowing that this was a true expression of his feelings and his mouth was open, so he didn't say anything. After the coarse porcelain bowls in front of everyone were filled with wine, Qin Lei looked around at the subordinates sitting on the ground around the tent, these guys were looking at him.

Qin Lei scolded with a smile: "Don't look at me with such hungry eyes." "It's not verbose

Picked up the white porcelain bowl on the table, raised it and said: "Reunion with Ma Zhi today and arrival at Beishan Ranch tomorrow, congratulations, do it!" ”

Everyone raised their bowls in unison, touched them in the middle of the table, and said loudly, "Your Highness Xie." "I drank it all in one go. Qin Lei also drank the soju in the bowl, and the hot feeling made him squint his eyes. Looking at his subordinates, Qin Lei smiled freely, put a piece of beef in his bowl, and smiled at the greedy subordinates: "Use it." ”

A group of hungry men pounced on the food. For a moment, the whole camp was filled with the sound of chewing and eating, the clanging of chopsticks against plates, and the sound of choking gas.

Ma Zhi and Shen Qing sat next to Qin Lei, and the food was personally made by Qin Surabaya, and his subordinates were always a little restrained when eating with him. It is a few people talking while eating slowly, but there is no lively scene in other places.

Qin Lei carefully inquired about Ma Zhi's situation. Ma Zhi closed his eyes and recalled, and then began to tell the story of breaking through and returning to China.

Because Qin Lei's big team suddenly soared, he threw off the spies from all sides for a while. Taking advantage of this time difference, Qin Lei forcibly sent Zhang Zhizhi and Shen Luo away, and at the same time summoned the fine workers who were scattered in Yingzhou, this one in and one out, the number of people was no more, no less. So much so that when the spies came back to their senses and reattached Qin Lei's large army, no one discovered Qin Lei's bag drop plan.

waited until a day after the trip was out for a day before letting go of Shen Luo and Guantao. At this time, the two could only smile bitterly.

As Shen Luo's identity as a big merchant in Beijing, as long as he didn't follow Qin Lei's scourge and didn't expose the calamity of Guantao, the attention of the whole Qi country was attracted to the background of Hangu Pass in the west, and he easily achieved unimpeded.

Along the way, passing through the large and small cities of Qi State, as long as they saw Shen Luo's banner, the officers and soldiers guarding the city not only did not dare to make difficulties, but also greeted each other with a smile. As a result, this group of refugees actually had a store to live in, a car to ride, and they ate and drank spicy food along the way, so they were not happy. The most outrageous thing is that he has lived in the Taishou Mansion a few times, and as for the county master's official residence, it is like his own bedroom, sleeping casually.

Hearing the sadness in Qin Lei's heart, he thought of his ten days of life and death like a lost dog, and silently lamented: "It's the same life, why is the gap so big?" ”

Shen Luo and the others finally passed through Yanzhou and left Youzhou, left the border of Qi State, and entered the Mangmang East Goler Prairie. Since the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks, it has implemented a policy of combining grace and power and attracting and dividing the ethnic minorities in the north. Under the deterrence of strong military and economic strength, a strong and unified nomadic people have never appeared in the north, but have formed signs of gradual internal migration of steppe residents and mutual integration between ethnic groups.

Of course, all this must be based on strong strength, the decline of national strength in the last years of the Tang Dynasty and the warlord melee after the demise ignited the ambition of many steppe wolves, and began to try to unify the grassland and invade the Central Plains. Three powerful countries were quickly established, basically ending the chaotic situation. Through nearly a hundred years of repeated competition, the grassland tribes were beaten back to the appearance of the Tang Dynasty. It's just that the scene of national harmony in the Tang Dynasty is difficult to regain.

Because of business reasons, Shen Luo has some friendship with the leaders of the major tribes in the East Goler grassland. There are tribal escorts along the way, and it is not as hard as imagined to cross the prairie, but the grassland people are hospitable, and if they don't go in and disturb the tribe when they pass by, it will be the biggest insult to them. It was only ten days ago that he walked out of Dongguoler and entered the Hetao area of the Qin State. Without stopping, he went all the way south, and when he was resting at the Beishan Ranch, he actually met the guards who played the front station, and then he knew that Qin Lei was also going to come to the Beishan Ranch. So Shen Luo decided to wait for him at Beishan Ranch. Ma Zhi was sent out to greet him.

After Ma Zhi finished speaking, Qin Lei scolded with a smile: "Following the eldest master is a blessing, he ***, I knew that I would follow my uncle like this." ”

The crowd burst into laughter. Then he took turns to pour wine with Ma Zhi, shouting that he would experience the joy of being chased and intercepted.

Qin Lei watched them laugh and didn't stop them. The heart has already flown to the North Mountain Ranch.

He was now desperate to see Shen Luo and Guan Tao. Ever since he found himself politically immature, he had been desperate for someone to help him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

But when I set off the next day, it was already three poles in the sun. This was still Shen Qing whipped up one by one with a horsewhip, of course, Qin Lei couldn't blame them, he made them drink.

The road that could have been completed in the morning has not been completed by the time the sun turns west.

When Qin Lei crossed a small hill and saw an earthen city appear on the vast grassland, Beishan Ranch finally arrived.

A few horses drove out of the city from afar, rushing towards Qin Lei. Qin Lei let out a long roar and urged the war horse to meet him.

The war horses walking in the opposite direction met at the key point, and Shen Luo, Zhang Jizhi and Qin Lei looked at each other and laughed after a long absence. The three jumped off their horses, their hands clasped tightly.

After thousands of miles of looping, I finally saw it on this northern grassland.

Shen Luo and Zhang Zhizhi looked at His Royal Highness standing as tall as a javelin, although their faces were full of dust, but their eyes that were once obscure and dark were as impressive as eagles, and their eyes were firm and sharp. Zhang Zhizhi arched his hand and said: "Congratulations to Your Highness, Your Highness." ”

Qin Lei smiled and said nothing.

Shen Luo grabbed Zhang Zhizhi's arm and said angrily: "If you break the jar, you will be dumbfounded." I've put up with you for a long time. You know? He shook his fist again and threatened: "Finish speaking, or you will be beaten all over the face." ”

The guards in the back secretly said, when did Deacon Shen become so irritable?

Zhang Zhizhi knew that Shen Luo had been worried about Qin Lei's safety, and now that he finally saw it, the pleasure in his heart was not good to say directly, and it didn't hurt to take the opportunity to vent himself. He scolded with a smile: "You old Shen, I said that I am with you, let go quickly." Let's just scratch this decent dress, you can't afford to pay for it. ”

Qin Lei hurriedly pulled Shen Luo away, held his hand and said sincerely, "Uncle, thank you." ”

Shen Luo's body trembled, feeling that his nose was sour, and he hurriedly turned his head and said in a rough voice: "If you don't say it, don't say it, you can play mysterious." I'll go see if dinner is ready. After saying that, he got back on his horse and fled back to Tucheng without looking back.
