Chapter 878: Luoyang City, the thousand-year-old imperial capital (1)

"Don't think so, the army of this era is like this. ▲ ∴ top ▲ ∴ o'clock ▲ ∴ small ▲ ∴ said, didn't the history books say that Cao Cao still used people to make dry food for the army? Which of those separatist warlords knows how to care for the people? Origin said aloud.

"I'm not that compassionate." Gao Yang pursed his lips, waved his hand and said, "If I had to take care of everything, I would have been exhausted a long time ago." I only care when I encounter it. All right! ”

Before he could say anything more, Gao Yang had already taken out his hunting knife and leaned over to take a piece of beef from the wooden rack and held it in his hand.

"You're not afraid of getting hot?" Origin shouted in surprise.

"Hungry...... Who cares about this? Gao Yang swallowed the beef quickly with the sharp hunting knife in his hand. The one that eats is called a gobble.

He was really hungry.

After killing two large pieces of beef weighing nearly three catties one after another, and drinking half a bladder of water. Gao Yang hiccuped contentedly and let out a long sigh of relief.

He casually fiddled with the extremely sharp hunting knife in his hand, and picked his teeth with the sharp tip of the knife. glanced at Huang Liang, who had a dull expression, and said indifferently, "You can eat the rest." ”

"Thank you, thank you!" Although Huang Liang's physical fitness has been greatly strengthened, his skills are still the same as before. Seeing Gao Yang's superb technique, he was immediately shocked.

After the two of them had finished eating, Gao Yang asked leisurely, "Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian, have you heard of it?" ”

Huang Liang, who was packing up his things, stumbled and almost fell to the ground, hurriedly put down the things in his hand, bowed his head, and said respectfully, "General Lu, who doesn't know the famous name of the Duting Marquis in the world, who doesn't know?" The villain, of course, has heard of it. ”

"Oh." Gao Yang nodded slightly, and then asked, "Have you ever seen him make a move?" How is the martial arts? Compared to me. ”

"This ...... The villain is just a little horseman, where can I see the martial arts of General Lu? The villain doesn't know. Huang Liang hurriedly responded.

"That's right." Gao Yang curled the corners of his mouth slightly. Sketching a faint smile, "I really want to see it." Tomorrow you lead the way, let's go to Luoyang! ”

"Huh?!" Huang Liang was dumbfounded.

"Why do you want to go to Luoyang?" Gao Yang settled in the tent and just lay down to rest. Origin asked, confused.

"We're going to find the contractor. Now I don't have a clue, so I can't just wander around the world to try my luck, right? Gao Yang explained in a low voice, "Since he is a high-level intelligent life form, he will inevitably choose to live in groups. The core of this era is Luoyang City. The chances of the contractor appearing in Luoyang were far greater than anywhere else. Do you think we should go to Luoyang? ”

"I see." The origin suddenly responded, paused, and then asked, "You just slept like this?" Aren't you afraid of the escape of that guy named Huangliang? If you go to Luoyang, you want him to lead the way. ”

Gao Yang, who had already laid down, closed his eyes and was about to sleep, smiled slightly, and said indifferently, "These horses are all near my tent, and I will know what is going on immediately." If only he had the courage not to ride a horse, he would have rushed into the moor in the middle of the night. For his courage, I'll let him go! ”

Huang Liang did not have the courage to rush into the treacherous wasteland without riding a horse in the night. Although he would love to run away. But he didn't have the courage to fetch the horses. In the end, I can only fall asleep in a daze in the entanglement.

Early the next morning, Gao Yang walked out of the tent refreshed. And Huang Liang got up to do chores with a pair of huge dark circles under his eyes.

"......" looked at Gao Yang rinsing his mouth with expensive green salt, and Huang Liang, who was busy cleaning up things, had a tangled expression on his face.

Green salt in this era is definitely a luxury. Its high price is enough to make most people stop.

The green salt used for the barbecue yesterday, and the green salt that Gao Yang now uses for gargling are all yellow sorghum, which they snatched from the rich family's house when they ransacked the village. Originally, it was obtained by the highest-ranking military commander, who gave up his claim for the spoils of cattle, sheep, horses, and other livestock after receiving a small bag of green salt. This is enough to see its precious value.

It's just that in this era of the supremacy of force, whoever has the biggest fist can enjoy good things. Gao Yang can fight better than that tun chief, so now Gao Yang can use green salt to brush his teeth, while that tun chief can only lie in the wasteland and become food for the beasts.

This. It is the truest portrayal of this era!

After taking a few selected war horses and loading them with some necessary materials, Huang Liang led the way towards Mengjin Ferry.

After leaving the wasteland, the number of people gradually increased. Liangtian Qianmo. The canals are vertical and horizontal. Village after village is dotted around. The people who were waiting for the crops in the fields all looked at the high sun and the yellow sorghum with a vigilant look.

No way, in this chaotic era, I don't know when I will meet a strong beam. Almost all the villages built fortifications to protect themselves, and looked at every stranger with a vigilant gaze. Occasionally, I encounter a lonely. These villagers may turn into robbers looking for money to buy their way and make a windfall.

Gao Yang and Huang Liang don't look like they seem to be characters, and the two of them can't get into the village. The speed forward is fast. On the contrary, many villagers with evil thoughts escaped the catastrophe.

Looking at Gao Yang, whose body was riding smoothly on a war horse, Huang Liang's doubts deepened.

This strong man with excellent martial arts doesn't look like a savage who walks through the mountains all year round. Just looking at the posture of his horse and the immovable posture of moving forward quickly, it would take at least several years of experience to do it.

Moreover, whether it is from the perspective of speech and demeanor, clothing, body shape, courage and martial arts, etc., Gao Yang all exudes an indescribable unique temperament. Where is this temperament that a mountain and wild man can have?

"He's definitely been on the battlefield, and he's a veteran!" After walking with Gao Yang for a while, Huang Liang quickly made a judgment.

Two days later, the two came to the largest ferry on the Yellow River, Mengjin Ferry.

On the avenue, which was only a few miles away from the ferry, Gao Yang suddenly pulled the reins and stopped his horse. He looked up at the distance of the avenue and nodded slightly, "It's okay." ”

Huang Liang on the side listened inexplicably, and he didn't know what was wrong with Gao Yang.

"Dismount." Gao Yang didn't have the idea of explaining to him, and after turning over and dismounting, he looked at him and said lightly.

Huang Liang, who was still confused, shook his head, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and stood beside Gao Yang at a loss.

Gao Yang, who was holding the reins in his hand, frowned slightly. Standing next to the avenue, he looked at the pedestrians coming from the direction of Mengjin Ferry. After a while, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he led his horse forward to stop a caravan of dozens of people.

"This old man, you are polite." Gao Yang ignored the caravan members in front of him, who were obviously on guard, and went straight to the front of an old man who took the lead and saluted.

"This son, stop me and wait, I don't know what to do?" Although he was not young, the old man who was still unusually clear in his eyes looked at Gao Yang curiously and asked.

He would not have doubted that these two men were going to do something wrong with a caravan of dozens of people on this crowded avenue. He was just curious about the big man. But what does a man with extremely short hair want to do.

However, when he looked beyond Gao Yang and focused on the horse led by Gao Yang, he immediately understood. The corners of his mouth also inadvertently outlined a smile.

"This old man is going to pass through Mengjindu. These horses want to be sold to the old man, but I don't know what to do? Gao Yang didn't grind, and directly threw out his thoughts.

He had just stood on the side of the road and had been observing for a while, so there was naturally no need to mention the caravan heading for Mengjindu. Only this large caravan could eat these horses.

"Huh." The old man's eyes flashed and he laughed. stepped forward and carefully looked at a few war horses on Gao Yang's side. Nodding in satisfaction.

"What does this son want to cost?" That's where the price comes in.

Gao Yang chuckled lightly and said loudly, "I have five horses here, and my husband has also seen the quality." Now the price of a horse is 20,000 yuan. The husband of these five horses will give 50,000 yuan. After a pause, he said, "I want gold." ”

"Good!" The old man clapped his hands and immediately responded to the business. Go to the caravan and take out five catties of gold and hand it to Gao Yang. At the same time, someone from the caravan led all the horses away. (Hanshu. The food and goods chronicle records that "one pound of gold, ten thousand straight money", although there must be discrepancies. But don't worry about it so much. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a horse was straight for 20,000 yuan, and Gao Yang was carrying an adult war horse, and it was very easy to sell it after it was half cheaper. )

The main currencies of the Han Dynasty were copper coins and cloth. Gold is a luxury. It's just that the copper coins and cloth are too big and heavy, and Gao Yang can't take them when the storage space can't be used, so he can only ask for light gold. Similarly, Huang Liang and his defeated soldiers looted all copper coins and cloth, and Gao Yang did not bring them over, but threw them all on the wasteland. No matter what era you are, you can't do it without money.

"Tall man." After seeing the caravan go away, Huang Liang, who looked puzzled, leaned over and asked puzzledly, "Let's go to Luoyang after crossing the big river, how can we go without horses?" He really didn't understand why Gao Yang sold the horse. No matter how much money you need, you can't sell horses.

Gao Yang glanced at him, smiled, and said, "You're still a cavalryman." Don't you know that the war horses of the official army are all marked? How do we get to the Mengjin ferry? Not to mention the cost of crossing the river, there was a big fight with the defenders. Use your brain! ”

"Huh?!" Huang Liang had a dull expression, he really hadn't thought about it! In the past, no matter where he went, he would act together with a large group of soldiers and horses, who would dare to check them? Who would dare to charge them tolls? As for the fact that the war horse has army marks on it, I don't have any impression when I look at it every day!

The experienced old man before had seen Gao Yang's intentions. He didn't ask how the horses came from. Where do businessmen in this era care if they rob the stolen goods obtained by the officials and soldiers? As long as there is something to earn, it is easy to say anything.

As for marking or something, for these big businessmen, it is not a problem at all.

Huang Liang looked at Gao Yang with a strange expression. He really didn't expect this weirdo to be so thoughtful. Where is this something that a strong martial artist can think of?

"Let's go." Gao Yang didn't care about Huang Liang's eyes full of admiration, put the gold away, and walked towards the direction of Mengjin Ferry. (To be continued.) )
