Next Chapter

The snowstorm that raged for three days and three nights finally stopped, and a helicopter flew back to the search and rescue base from the vast snowfield.....

A week later, the search and rescue team found Li Qing'an's training bow and arrow, but there was no trace of anyone, and because another snowstorm was approaching, the search and rescue team had to give up the search for Li Qing'an.

A year later, the name Li Qing'an was gradually forgotten.

......

'The sword river is stormy and the clouds are wide, and the sand mouth stone is frozen and the horse's hooves are off. ’

Anxi in February of the fifth year of Tianbao is still a world of ice and snow, the snow-capped Lingshan Mountains stand on the edge of the Tang Dynasty, the white clouds float in the middle of the snow-capped mountains, and the snow peaks seem to be blue gems, shining brightly in the sun.

In the middle of Lingshan there is a mountain pass called Bodaling, here is a shortcut to the broken leaves of the four towns of Anxi of the Tang Dynasty, known as the broken leaf road, when Xuanzang traveled west to learn the scriptures, it was from here to cross the Lingshan exit, difficult and tragic, encountered avalanches and blizzards, and the god of death fought against seven days before walking out of Lingshan.

Thirty miles south of Bodaling, is Sulou Fengshu Fort, the fort is about five zhang high, built with the boulder of Lingshan, divided into three layers, the bottom floor lives the horse, the middle layer sleeps people, the upper floor is the overlook battle tower, there are three pots of beacon fire on the top of the fort, in addition there are several tents set up on the side of the fort, the soldiers usually live in the tent, in case of emergency, everyone will hide in the fort, the Sulou Beacon Fort is stationed 45 Tang soldiers, together with the five Tang soldiers of the Lingshan beacon fire, a total of 50 people.

On this morning, two Hu merchants came to the fort with several carriages, and behind the carriage was a man on a horse, who was strangely dressed, wearing a short white shirt, leather boots under his feet, and his hair was also very short, and he lay on the horse softly, and as the horse stopped, his fingers moved slightly, and the man seemed to be awake.

Seeing the arrival of merchants, the Tang army ran out of the tent excitedly, here is hundreds of miles of desolate people, boring all year round, the arrival of merchants every month, is the happiest day of the Tang army, like a festival.

Everyone paid for luxury goods such as wine and meat from the merchants, but all the soldiers looked eagerly at a carriage with lace.

At this moment an officer came out of the tent, tall and burly, with a dark face and a big beard, and he laughed rudely: "Uboda, did the woman bring it?" ”

"Brought!" The merchant pointed to the lace carriage as if flattering, and said with a smile: "The two people in it are both famous in Bahuan City." ”

"Bullshit, who are you coaxing, it's the bad note you brought from the black kiln!" Still, the officer grinned and approached the carriage.

Suddenly, he saw the man behind the carriage, and he couldn't help but say, "Who is this?" ”

"I picked it up on the road and was going to sell it at the slave market."

"Picked it up on the road?" The bearded officer stepped forward suspiciously, and provoked his face with a horsewhip, a young face with a well-defined silhouette, which, though haggard, still showed his former hard-nosed and heroic manhood.

"It's a Han man!"

The bearded officer turned back to the merchant and asked, "Where did you find him?" ”

"On the Hulu River, this man has a big life, and he was not eaten by wild wolves."

At this time, the young man slowly opened his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Give me a little water." ”

"Hey! Where are you Han Chinese? ”

"I am.... Luoyang people. The young man said intermittently. Dongdu people, hehe! I like the women of Dongdu the most. ”

The bearded officer pinched his thick arm, waved his hand, and said, "Carry him into the fort and give him water." ”

Immediately two soldiers came over to unload the young man, Hu Shang was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Master Lifei, this is my slave." ”

"Shit! How dare you use someone of unknown age as a slave, beware of Lao Tzu slaughtering you. ”

Hu Shang didn't dare to say anything, in fact, he was also worried that this man would not be able to save him, and there were still two hundred miles to go back, if he died, wouldn't it be a waste of his food, he regretted it for a while, and he knew that it would be good to take off the high-quality short shirt on his body first.

The bearded officer grinned and opened the door of the float, "Come out, beauties!" ”

"It's coming!"

With a coquettish cry, two black, short and fat Hu Niang came out of it, they winked at Tang Jun affectionately, and smiled shyly: "Let's talk about it first, a hundred Wen once." ”

Their kind of goods are at most five cents once in Bahuan City, but this is a fort where even a mother bird can't be seen, there is no way, and scarcity is expensive.

Although the two women were unsightly, the bearded officer happily hugged them and smiled: "Good! Good! Please go to the tent, and I want you both to serve together. ”

......

In the fort, the young man lay quietly on the haystack, and a war horse arched his face affectionately with his mouth from time to time, and this warm and sour smell made the young man gradually sober.

He is Li Qing'an, who disappeared in the Tianshan Mountain snowstorm in 2007, and when he walked out of the snowstorm and was rescued by several businessmen, he found that he had traveled through time and space and returned to Datang.

In the fifth year of Tianbao, Li Qingan sighed softly, time has gone back more than 1,300 years!

At this time, an old soldier came with a bowl of porridge, he sat next to Li Qingan and said with a smile: "Brother, I think you are very hungry, eat some porridge to replenish your body first." ”

The porridge was boiled very thickly, filled with a rich wheat fragrance, Li Qingan was also very hungry, he struggled to sit up, "Thank you, big brother!" ”

While carefully feeding him porridge, the old army asked with a smile, "What is your name, how did you come to Lingshan?" ”

The hot porridge warmed his internal organs, Li Qing'an had a little spirit, he had already made up a set of rhetoric, and said in a low voice: "My name is Li Qing'an, my name is Qilang, my parents died early, I have nothing to do, I was hired by Hu Shang half a year ago to escort them to broken leaves, but I encountered robbers in Lingshan, and my property was lost, and I desperately escaped with my life." ”

The old army sighed, nodded and said: "It shouldn't be a robber, it's a Tuqi Shi person, you can survive, it's your life, but your accent is not like a Luoyang person, but like a person from Xiangzhou." Xiangzhou is today's Anyang, Li Qingan didn't know, he said vaguely: "My grandfather is from Xiangzhou, and I grew up with him since I was a child." ”

"That's right, my mother's hometown is also from Ye County, Xiangzhou, and your accent is the same, my surname is Sun, and I am the horseman of the fort, so you can call me Sun Matou!"

"Brother Sun." Li Qingan took a hard breath and said, "Can you let me stay, I don't want to be sold as a slave." ”

"Don't worry! Since our Lifei Lord brought you in, you will not be sold, and besides, I don't need a helper here, so I will tell him to let you stay and raise horses. ”

"Thank you, Brother Sun!"

After Li Qing'an finished eating the porridge, an irresistible sleepiness struck, and as soon as his eyes were dark, he fell into a dark sleep.

I don't know how long it took, Li Qingan was woken up by a loud voice, "How is he, can he work?" ”

"Lord, he's fine, he's just hungry, just eat two full meals and sleep again."

Li Qingan opened his eyes and saw the bearded officer standing in front of him, so he quickly sat up.

The full name of the lord is called Li Fei Yuanli, he is a Hu man, Tianbao joined the army in the early years, and was promoted to the lord of the war, he and the two girls were happy, and the mood was particularly comfortable, and when he saw Li Qingan wake up, he smiled and said: "Not bad!" In the morning, I was like a dead man, but now I can actually sit. ”

He squatted down and looked at Li Qing'an, reached out and touched the white short shirt on his body, and asked strangely: "What kind of hufu is this, it feels good!" ”

Li Qingan was wearing a white down jacket, he took it off and handed it to Li Fei Yuanli and said, "This is the Persian suit that Hu Shang gave me, and I will pass it on to the lord of war." ”

Li Fei Yuanli took it unceremoniously and put it on himself, feeling very light and warm, and couldn't help grinning: "Okay!" and the garment shall be mine. ”

He patted Li Qing'an on the shoulder, nodded and said, "Brother, if you are a Hu person, I will definitely treat you as a Trush scout and cut you down, but since you are Han, then stay!" Be Sun Matou's deputy, and from tomorrow onwards, work to earn food to support himself. ”
