"As long as you straighten out the context of things in the world, everything in heaven and earth can be used by you. Your old man has been thinking about immortality all his life, why don't you study the nature of all things in heaven and earth?

I'm afraid that a "Tao Te Ching" has been turned over by the Taoist masters, do you remember what Lao Tzu said? Without waiting for Yun Ye to finish speaking, Yuan Shoucheng said in a low voice:

"The Tao is as deep as the sea, tall and tall as a mountain, all over the world and everywhere, circulating endlessly and nothing is not coming, seeking it but not getting, talking about it but not reaching! The Taoist is the one who gives birth to heaven and earth without decaying, and who supports all things without want; The sky is high, the earth is thick, the sun and the moon are good, the four seasons are in order, and all things are formed. “

When the four Taoist priests heard this, they immediately sat on the ground and recited the Tao Te Ching together, Yun Ye sighed, Yuan Shoucheng still did not give up, and still had great confidence in Tianchi, what he was going to say was Lao Tzu's quiet inaction, Yuan Shoucheng immediately used Lao Tzu's words to block his mouth, no matter what, since he is so obsessed, why should he be a villain in vain. It is not a big deal to take them to Tianchi for a trip in April and May next year.

The heavy snow seems to have imprisoned Tingzhou, and at the same time, there is still time to imprison, Yun Ye can't move, and those people in the Western Regions can't move either, and the Gobi Desert in winter is not the time for people to move lightly.

Only the water in the qanats is free, bubbling in the ground with white steam, the activities of the Hu people in Tingzhou are actually with the help of the tunnels of the karez, and there is no one on the ground, but in the underground karez tunnels, people come and go, very lively, and the fire oil needed by Yun Ye is still continuously transported into the underground warehouse.

Fan Hongyi happily counted the oil for this month, and looked at the flattering expressions of those businessmen and were a little embarrassed. He took 3,000 jars of oil from others for nothing and didn't pay a penny, and he had to accept the gratitude of others, which had a great impact on his mood.

Sending troops to escort businessmen was originally within his authority, but now this authority has also been sold by Tian Yuanyi for money. And it is the one with the highest price, the handsome man laughed dumbly when he heard it, and he was made red-faced, Fan Hongyi felt that if he continued to associate with Tian Yuanyi, sooner or later he would become a shameless villain like him.

In order to keep his moral exercises, Fan Hongyi has been living in the barracks these days, going out to exercise and training with the sergeants. Patrolling the camp together, and even building a camp together, he put these practices. As a kind of tempering of one's will. The eldest husband is upright and glorious in the world, how can he live a lifetime.

The heavy snow cut off the Tianshan Road, Yun Ye was worried in the camp, even if Qu Zhuo and the others got the information, there was no way to send it from Loulan to Tingzhou in such weather, and everything could only continue to start after the snow melted in spring next year. It is only then that the river of time will continue to flow.

Tingju is covered in heavy snowfall. Shattered Leaf City was a sunny day, Black Wind wore expensive black fox furs, and walked through the crowded streets with a dozen locally hired samurai, not even looking at the slaves who were tied to the edge of the market with ropes, this was the place where low-level slaves were purchased, all of them were serfs that the robbers had snatched back from elsewhere. Or a shepherd slave, according to Qu Zhuo's instructions, he needs to buy fifty fierce war slaves today, I heard that some of them are specially trained to fight, and they are not afraid of life and death. Only know to fight, and the best thing is that they don't care who they fight for.

War slaves and beautiful slave girls are sought-after goods, only those nobles who are on the verge of bankruptcy will sell their war slaves, and under normal circumstances, such nobles are no longer nobles, because their last hole card to save their lives has also been sold.

Xiao Miao's flaxen hair and black eyes reveal a strange beauty, and the role she plays today is the little daughter of Hei Feng, with a veil on her face and flexible eyes, which makes people unforgettable at a glance.

She was always followed by a large group of children, for no other reason, just because Xiao Miao always gave them food, it was all real food, not leftovers, those filthy children had never seen a whole naan cake, nor had they eaten large pieces of mutton, only in Sister Anji's alms basket had these foods.

So Sister Anji's name quickly spread all over Shattered Leaf City, as long as it was time to eat, their residence would be overcrowded, Qu Zhuo warned Xiao Miao more than once, such a swagger in the market would not do him any good for what he was going to do, but he said it was equivalent to not saying it, because Xiao Miao would also take his food to those street children.

Shattered Leaf City has never been so lively as it is now, and there have never been so many people, and the hired samurai pushed through the crowd to make a way for Black Wind and Xiao Miao.

There are a lot of people watching the excitement here, most of them are idlers who come to see the slave girls shivering in the cold wind with their skin and flesh exposed, and they don't have money to buy them, so it's good to take a look. The luxury of the black wind makes those idlers automatically make room for them, which a noble lord cannot afford to offend.

"My rich brother, will Abdullah have the privilege of serving you?"

Hei Feng glanced at the slave trader who came over, raised his head proudly, and said to the dwarf slave trader with his nostrils: "I believe in the sun god, and I am not a slave trader's brother, I just came to buy slaves, if you have good goods and I like them, I will buy them, if not, go to the person who has the goods, I don't have much time to wait." “

The slave trader was not the slightest bit unhappy, and continued to hunch his waist and said: "I have a beautiful slave girl here, and there is a virgin, her skin is as white as milk, and she feels as smooth as the best silk of the Tang Kingdom, and her voice is as tactful as a lark, my lord, I don't know if you are interested." ”

"My family is expanding, and I need a strong slave to defend my property, and a little slave girl to serve my daughter Anji." Hei Feng held Xiao Miao's hand with a shy stomach, no need to perform, his eyes were full of spoiling, Xiao Miao snuggled up to his side obediently, and got along with Guò these days, Xiao Miao liked the story Hei Feng told her very much.

"Honorable lord, you are really looking for the right person, the Agutai family of the Sassanid country has declined, the little prince of their family sold the last sixty-three war slaves, they are very affectionate, they do not want to be scattered and sold, please I sell them to a customer at one time, if you can buy it at one time, it would be great."

"Big cannibals, if these people are really warriors, I will give you a price that matches their bravery, if you don't give me sixty-three lions, but give me a pack of wild dogs, I won't come out of a single one, hahaha." Hei Feng didn't expect that he was so lucky today, he could meet sixty-three war slaves at one time, which is not a lot of time.

Speaking of goods, the big cannibal named Abdullah immediately straightened his back, the Agutai family is an ancient family, but in this generation, all the wine bags and rice bags are left in the family, and his family's war slaves are known for their bravery and loyalty.

"My noble lord, the war slaves of the Agutai family are very famous, it has been in my hands for half a year, it is not that there are no noble lords who have come to ask the price before, it's a pity, they can't afford it, what you said is too reasonable, good goods should have a good price."

Xiao Miao ignored the bargaining between Black Wind and the slave traders, her eyes kept looking at the female slaves, and as soon as her eyes fell on the female slave, the female slave immediately knelt down and begged Xiao Miao to take her away.

Hei Feng didn't know what Xiao Miao's idea was, and hurriedly said to Xiao Miao: "These women are really pitiful, we can't save them all, if you like it, you can pick two female slaves in the tent for a while, and that's all we can do." ”

Master Hou will definitely save them all here! Xiao Miao pouted and said hatefully.

Hei Feng shook his head helplessly and said: "There are a lot of poor people in this world, even the Hou Ye can't save them all, unless Datang can occupy here, I remember that Datang doesn't have slaves, right?" ”

"Of course not, the maids and servants in my family all come to the house to help work, everyone is well fed and warmly dressed, just like the little flower who serves me, she came to the house to learn the rules, and if you learn the rules, you can go out and marry a good family."

Listening to Xiao Miao's words, Hei Feng was stunned for a moment, he just said it casually, he didn't expect the Hou Mansion to be like this, Xiao Miao never lied He knew very clearly.

"Is it really heaven?" Black Wind muttered to himself, and followed Abdullah into a large tent, he saw at a glance a group of people standing against the wall, they were obviously different from the other slaves in the tent in terms of spirit, and their bodies were obviously much stronger, a white-haired warrior bowed to Black Wind and said, "Honorable lord, we sixty-three warriors are only willing to sell together, and are not willing to disperse. ”

After speaking, he hugged his arms and leaned against the wall again, Hei Feng was very happy, and said to Abdullah: "Yes, it looks like brave warriors, and the most rare thing is that they can also speak Turkic language, very good, how much money, I want it all." ”

Abdullah's eyes tightened with a smile, "Three thousand silver cakes, my lord, do you think the price is worth it?" ”

Xiao Miao glanced at the old war slave, and found that he closed his eyes in pain, clenched his two fists tightly, and couldn't help himself in pain, and felt sad for these warriors in her heart, she could see that these people were battle-hardened warriors.

Seeing that Hei Feng was still bargaining, his anger suddenly soared, and he took out a sea blue pearl from his purse, threw it on a porcelain plate and stammered to Abdullah: "I bought it!" “

Everyone stared at the dripping and spinning sea blue pearls on the plate, and Abdullah swallowed a mouthful of saliva and squeezed out three words with difficulty: "Go to the pearls!" “

"They're worth the price!" Xiao Miao's words were said to the old war slave. (To be continued......)
