1076 Heaven's End
This is a unique way of singing by the herdsmen, which is called "shepherd's long tune" by the Donglu people, which is characterized by high-pitched and unrestrained, few words and long tones, and is a kind of song formed by a long "drag sound". In this empty field, there is a sense of majesty.
It is at the top of the hill of this sound source that a stone courtyard is particularly eye-catching, and at the gate of this courtyard, there is a row of crooked Donglu characters - "the end of the sky", and below these big characters is a row of fine shepherd characters, which is roughly "the corner of the immortal sky".
This turned out to be an inn, and opening such an inn on such a wasteland always made people feel abrupt.
And the appearance of a group of travelers in such a wasteland is even more abrupt.
A group of three people, riding the best horses of the western land, traveled through the snowy wasteland. All three of them wore thick fur coats and felt on their heads, mostly brown bear hair, but now, almost whitened by the snow, indicating that the three of them had come a long way.
Since the disappearance of the Heavenly Sword Mountain, the loss of the Heavenly Sword Mountain Range as a basis, if you want to cross the long snow line to get here, the journey has been at least twice as long, and during this period, you have to cross at least a month of wasteland, which is a real wasteland with nothing.
The white wasteland, the resolute traveler, and the high-pitched long tone form a painting unique to the North.
The three of them were heading towards the inn called "The End of the Heavens", and when they finally reached the top of the hill, their horses were almost exhausted, and they exhaled white air.
At this time, the old man on the hill who was singing no longer called out the long tune, but slowed down the syllables, and held the horse-head fiddle in his hand, and the sound seemed very heavy, which was suitable for such an empty world.
The three of them got off the horse one after another, and the leader ripped off the thick face towel that covered his face, revealing a face full of stubble, this person was naturally Mo Zhiyu, and of course he was surrounded by Wanwan and Luo Bingqian.
Mo Zhiyu looked into the courtyard through the crack in the door, but didn't see a figure, so he shouted directly inside: "Is there anyone?" ”
"Oil! Oil! Immediately a rough voice rang out in the courtyard, and a man in a shepherd's robe ran out and pulled the large wooden gate of the courtyard open.
This man is about the same height as Mo Zhiyu, but he is much burlier and has a big beard. He saw a few people, behaved very enthusiastically, and said while making a "please" gesture: "Frozen Lu Nai drops touch oil, light tight, light tight!" ”
The three people at the door glanced at each other, and their eyes were all expressions of "this person's Donglu dialect is a little worse".
Wanwan couldn't stand it anymore, so she said directly: "Spend your trip to Hamon in the twilight, hey the old Delu." At the same time, she used her hand to compare a "three". She was asking if there were any rooms, and they were three people, and they wanted three.
When Wanwan's standard Donglu dialect came out, this shepherd man was stunned, so he didn't speak the lame Donglu dialect anymore, and said the shepherd's language with a smile: "Friends who come from afar know so much, they can speak our words so well, amazing, amazing, please come in, please come in!" ”
So saying, the shepherd man led the way in front, led the three into the courtyard, and then pointed to the stake next to him and said, "We have few people here all year round, and there is no special horse shed, so let's make do here." You can't ride a horse when you go into the mountains, and you can't use this horse, so how do you want to eat it for a while, roast it, or boil it? ”
Luo Bingqian is a person from Tianjian Mountain, although the Donglu dialect is not as good as Wanwan's words, but it is no problem to listen to it at all, but it is also the first time she has seen someone who speaks so directly, so she asked: "Can't you really ride a horse?" ”
"This beautiful girl may not know very well, there is really no way forward." The man said, "You have come all the way, this horse has reached its limit, and we will not survive the winter." Even if I raise it for you, when you come out of the mountains, you can only see my dried horse meat! ”
Then he also laughed "hehe": "Guests, don't blame me for being rude, it's unknown whether you can come back, if you have any last words, we also have paper and ink here, the things are very complete, and the price is also very fair, only five Yuanli spars!" ”
This shepherd named "Amon" asks for fifty taels of Yuanli Crystal with one mouth, if ordinary people listen to it, they will definitely feel that it is a lion's mouth, because the current world is common to gold and silver, and only Yuanli monks will use Yuanli Crystal to trade, but it is also very rare, because Yuanli Spade is more used for cultivation.
One or two Yuan Force Crystals can be worth five thousand taels of gold at the market price, and now this Amon costs fifty taels, which is enough to buy the next sect.
But Mo Zhiyu didn't mean to bargain, so he directly took out a large bag of Yuanli Crystal from his arms and threw it to Amon, and said in standard shepherd language: "We will only rest for one night, and we will leave at noon tomorrow to prepare all the things we need." ”
Amon didn't shy away from it at all, he directly opened the bag and randomly clicked on the Yuanli spar inside, and then smiled even brighter, saying, "Okay, okay, generous friends will definitely have good luck." ”
Mo Zhiyu didn't want to continue talking nonsense with this man, so he just waved his hand, and Amon went down happily.
As soon as Amon walked in front, Luo Bingqian came over and whispered to Mo Zhiyu, "Senior brother, why do I think this place looks like a black shop?" ”
Since entering the northern realm, it seems that the power of heaven and earth here is different from the outside, and the yuan force has suffered a huge compression, so it can't be directly transmitted in secret words, and it can only be like an ordinary person.
Wanwan knelt down on the felt carpet on the side, and said with a mocking look: "Opening a black shop in this place, you can really find a place, haha." ”
"What are you laughing at?" Luo Bingqian has always been unaccustomed to Wanwan, even after several pursuits between her and Wanwan, she did not rise a little bit of favorability, she also sat on the side of the table, looked at Wanwan with a cold face and said, "You understand very well, don't you?" ”
"It's okay, I know a little bit about it." Wanwan said with a smile, looking provocative, "This place is called 'The End of the Sky', and it is the last place we settled before going to the 'Absolute Ridge'. ”
"Isn't that suspicious?" Luo Bingqian said, "No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it is populated, will ordinary stores choose to open a store here?" ”
