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

Alimu is a good guide, and in just one day, he led Zhang Fang and his party to run for more than 150 miles. Running down this way, I basically did not encounter the shepherd or the department, and avoided the chance of leaking his whereabouts to the greatest extent.

Zhang Fang and his entourage can run more than 100 miles a day, thanks to the abundance of horses. Originally, each of them had a horse, but after breaking through Mo Xi's department, dozens of good horses were captured. Now it's a man with two horses on wheels, and a horse with baggage.

It's just that along the way, the horse is not tired, but it is tired.

At dusk, when they dismounted and camped to fight, Zhang Fang refused the request of Deng Zhan and the Han brothers, who were also tired of being dogs, to carry him off the horse, and gritted his teeth and dismounted. In a weird "horse riding dance" shape, he walked crookedly to the thick straw mat laid by Qingyan with duck steps, and lay on the ground on his back without any image.

After a long time, Zhang Fang, who had barely recovered, stood up and beckoned to Qingyan and the Han brothers: "Come here, help me get a gadget." ”

The gadget that Zhang Fang wants to get is a stirrup. He could conclude that if he didn't get the stirrups and rode like this, he would definitely fall into the sequelae, such as looping legs or something. Zhang Fang has not only seen stirrups in film and television, but also played in equestrian clubs, and knows a little about stirrups, saddles and so on. Due to the limited conditions, it is impossible to make a saddle, but it is still possible to make a simple stirrup.

Cut off the leather strip and strangle it into a horse's belly belt, make two bell-shaped stirrups out of strong poplar wood, wrap thick and tough leather at the stirrup step, tie it on both sides of the horse's belly, adjust the height, put your feet in it, go around the horse, and feel much better.

The Han brothers, Qingyan and the guards were surprised and followed suit. After a try, everyone praised the young master's intelligence. Only Deng Zhan, who was born in the military, and Alimu, a seasoned businessman, had sparkling eyes, and they obviously caught a glimpse of something unusual.

As night falls, a bonfire is lit. Some people build felt tents, some people roast mutton, some people set traps, some people cut down branches and tie them into horses, and place them in places where they may be attacked. Since the beginning of the chicken and deer stopper, this set of procedures has been cooked by the guards.

Deng Zhan, the former border army leader, is really not in vain.

Except for Zhang Fang, everyone is busy. From the bottom of his heart, Zhang Fang wanted to help, and everyone was equally tired when he was tired, but he didn't forget his identity. According to the market of this era, with his status, even if there is only the last entourage left around him, he should not do it himself.

Soon, Qingyan walked towards Zhang Fang with both hands on the wooden plate, and the roast leg of lamb on the wooden plate emitted an attractive fragrance.

Coming to the straw mat three or four steps away in front of Zhang Fang, Qingyan knelt on a tray in one hand and caressed his clothes in the other, and placed the wooden plate on the wooden pier that temporarily served as a food table. After that, take out the meat cutting knife, cut the lamb into thin slices, and serve it on a tray with both hands.

Zhang put down his hands and took it, and looked at her with interest: "It was Deng Zhan who taught you, right?" ”

Qingyan lowered her head, folded her hands on her knees, and said in a low voice: "Back to Gongzi, Deng Guard said that the maid must have the appearance of a maid, and it cannot be overcome." ”

Zhang Fang picked up a piece of mutton, put it in his mouth and chewed, thoughtfully: "Actually, in this wild place, you don't need to pay attention to anything, everything is simple." However, once you return to Chang'an, there will be no shortage of red tape, so you should get used to it in advance. Guarding Deng said this for your own good. ”

Qingyan hummed lowly.

Zhang Fang ate for a while, and when he saw that Qingyan didn't move, he said with a smile: "I just said that everything is simple, you don't need to wait, just busy with your go." ”

Qingyan hummed again, raised her head, and her eyes were shining: "When we were about to separate, Sister Ah Li had something for me to tell my son." ”

Zhang Fangzheng picked up a piece of mutton, heard the words, slowly put down the wooden plate, and looked at Qingyan attentively and gently.

Perhaps because of encouragement, Qing Yan bit her lip and said softly, "Sister Ah Li told me that she and the woman named Lu Nu were both given to the Golden Arrow Messenger as a gift by Bu Gusu. Originally, the two of them were supposed to serve, but the night before, Hu was drunk, and after returning to the felt tent, he fell asleep soundly, and did not violate the two of them...... Even so, if the son does not rescue him in time, after the dawn, Hu makes the wine wake up, and they will not be able to escape this fate. Sister Ah Li repeatedly asked me to thank her son on her behalf......"

Zhang Fang nodded slightly, and he understood why Ah Li and Lu Nu were both held hostage by Sandor. After killing Sando, because of his special identity as the Golden Arrow Messenger, he has been busy since then in order to clean up his hands, and he has neglected this girl a little. If he was still a psychiatrist, it would be a serious dereliction of duty, but now that he has dozens of lives on his shoulders, there are some things that he can't take care of.

Qingyan, who finally completed the entrustment, was relieved and bowed down.

As the night darkens, the surroundings fall silent. Zhang Fang sat alone on the straw mat, and the people closest to him were guarding ten steps away. Since his identity was confirmed, the Han brothers, Qu Liang, and Qingyan worshipped him as their master, and the relationship between friends and masters in the past was gradually replaced by the relationship between master and servant.

"The young lord is the only blood heir of the prince, and you must serve carefully at all times." Deng Zhan warned these mountain boys more than once. The implication could not be clearer, this little master will definitely inherit the title of Marquis of Fuping in the future, and he is a well-known marquis of the Han Dynasty. You must know in your heart, know that you are inferior and inferior, and don't wait until you return to Chang'an, and you will be punished for losing your manners.

"It's just a marquis, and there is such a gap between him and the commoners, so what will happen to the real marquis? What about the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty? "I have gradually realized the strict hierarchy of this era, and sometimes I am a little confused. He wasn't sure how far he could go when faced with a power he had to bow to......

……

At dawn, when that strange noise came, the first to notice and react was not Deng Zhan, who was keeping vigil, but Zhang Fang, who was heavily protected and should have been asleep. Even if he is tired from traveling during the day, Zhang Fang's sleep time does not increase because of this. The recovery from physical fatigue is slow, but the recovery of mental energy is very fast, and the sleep of two hours a day can not be more.

As soon as Zhang Fang moved, the Han brothers, Qingyan and others immediately woke up, coupled with Deng Zhan's shouts from afar, the entire campsite suddenly exploded.

This strange sound is all too familiar, it is the sound of horses' hooves!

When the people gathered behind the horses, with their spears and bows, as if facing a great enemy, there were only three horsemen running from afar.

The Huns only sent three horsemen to take them? Overconfidence.

Deng Zhan was shocked, and his raised hand was hesitating to split it, when he heard the young master shouting: "Stop!" Don't let go of the arrows, the one who comes is a friend and not an enemy. ”

This will work, the three horsemen are approaching, and everyone can see it clearly, and it is really a friend rather than an enemy.

It's actually Lin Tianci, Li Ren, and Lu Nu, who have just parted ways for a day and night!

Deng Zhan crossed the rejected horse and was about to ask, but when he saw the three of them galloping in front of everyone without stopping, Lin Tianci waved his hand and shouted: "Hurry up!" The Huns are behind! ”
