Chapter 167: Luring the Wolf into the House (Part II)
When Dongfang was eating Haisai in the Jinyang Palace of Chen State, Zhao Qi had already formed a small caravan with a few brothers who had traveled back and forth to the territory of the Rong clan together, and several people were ready to conquer the desert for the last time.
Out of Jinyang Pass in the west, a few brothers from the past, sitting on camels, drinking wine, while watching the desert sunset in front of them, the sunset.
What they are going to transport to the Rong people this time is light and delicate Biliang cosmetics.
Zhao Qi's former brothers teased after drinking: "Seventh Master, are you chasing the Yan lady who made wine in the restaurant, chasing the ghost and going crazy?" β
"It must be delirious and hopeless!"
"Yes! Who is our seventh master? Black Market Wolf Traders! Chen Guo's No. 1 shopkeeper! Now the lord of the household has to nod to him, but what about him? He's going crazy! β
"Crazy, crazy!"
"What does it look like to be crazy?"
"It's so crazy that I have to go to the desert myself! And he ran to the Rong tribe all his life, just for such a little bit of rouge gouache! β
"Seventh master, seventh master, this rouge gouache is sold for gold in Chen Kingdom, but those barbaric women of the Rong tribe who eat raw meat and drink wolf blood, do they understand spices? Do they use rouge? β
"Hahaha...... In my opinion, our seventh master is going to the Rong clan to give up on himself! The spice rouge couldn't be sold, so he sold himself to the barbarian girl of the Rong tribe! See if they don't eat him alive! β
"Seventh master, seventh master, why are you so bitter? That Yan Niangzi doesn't want you, there are also Li Niangzi, Zhao Niangzi, and the ladies of the world! Back then, all the ladies on the black market were looking forward to you and secretly wishing for you, why did you fall in love with that demon woman who was invincible to all poisons and immortal? β
"Why don't you take a few Rong women back this time! In front of that demon woman, shake your majesty! β
Zhao Qi glared at the two brothers who called Yan Xiao "Demon Woman", and said, "I, Zhao Laoqi, just like the little demon girl!" You call her a 'witch' again? See if I don't throw you two out and feed those wolf wives of the Rong tribe! β
The two of them smiled, and said "hey, hey, hey" and stopped talking.
Zhao Qi looked into the distance, and his heart was resolute.
On that day, Mo Xindi, the great butler of the Zhuge family on Xuanji Island, came to the door in person and handed over the two marching atlases to Zhao Qi. He hesitated whether to go west out of Jinyang Pass, cross the vast desert, and introduce the tiger and wolf army in the north of the desert into Kyushu again.
Mo Xindie said: "The dead game must be broken by killing, if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?" If you want to destroy the Song Kingdom in one fell swoop, you can't hesitate. Destroy the Song State, the allied forces of the four countries, and then encircle and suppress the army of the Rong people who caught the blind in Kyushu, so as to eliminate the troubles of Kyushu forever. The four ** alliances have been reached, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. β
Zhao Qi felt that this was an evil wind outside Jinyang Pass. And he was about to personally incite this evil trend.
He asked Mo Xind: "Why did you ask me to send these two marching charts?" The Zhuge family has been doing business outside the customs for a hundred years, and it is okay to send a caravan of the Zhuge family to it, why did you find me Chen Guo Zhao Qi alone? β
Mo Xindie said frankly: "If it was before, it would indeed be possible for the Zhuge family's caravan to come forward. But now, the Lord has become the Lord of the Patriotic Country, if he has the slightest involvement with the Rong clan outside the Guanwai, it will do all kinds of harm to Qi Weifu ** and no benefit! If Qi Wei recovers the country, he has to rely on the assistance of the Rong people, then even if he recovers, he will be spurned by the people of Kyushu! The Lord probably expected today's move, so in order to avoid suspicion, the Zhuge family has not been doing business outside the customs for ten years. But Zhao Qiye, you are a native of Chen Guo, and you are just a businessman of Chen Guo. Chen Guo and the Song State have enmity, in order to avenge the revenge of your father and brother, you will win over the forces outside the customs to destroy the Song Dynasty, and no one will say anything. No one will even pay attention to it, and no one will know who left Jinyang Pass and went to Mobei before the Kyushu beacon smoke was lit. Even if someone knows, how can you be able to draw these two marching charts? The people of the world can't scold you at all. β
Passing through the desert, you will see an oasis. Beyond the oasis, there are more green grasslands.
The great rivers on the grassland are clear and flow quietly, reflecting the blue sky and the colors of the white and white clouds.
When Zhao Qi was young, he saw this green grassland and blue river for the first time, and he heard the Rong people say that this river is called "Jibu Long River". The source of the Jibu River is at the top of Gulan Amu Sacred Mountain in the Tianmang Mountain Range.
There is a legend among the Rong people that Gulan Amu is the god of all things who is in charge of the cycle of life and death. His divine power was sealed in the 10,000-year-old Xuan Ice on the highest peak of the Tianmang Mountain Range.
Every spring, when everything recovers, Gulan Amu will also awaken. He used his divine power to melt the Xuanbing, and the Xuanbing turned into a long river, flowing from the top of Tianmang Mountain to the grassland that gave birth to the Rong people, bringing them the green of the grass, the white of the sheep, the brown of the war horses, and the colorful wildflowers of the grassland......
The Rong people say that everything has this life and an afterlife. In this life, you are a sheep on the grassland, and in the next life, Gulan Amu will turn you into a soft girl. In this life, you are a war horse on the grassland, and in the next life, Gulan Amu will turn you into a handsome hunter.
In this life, you are the leader of the wolf pack that dominates the grassland, and in the next life, Gulan Amu will turn you into the Khan King of the Rong people!
When Zhao Qi first heard the theory of this life and the afterlife, he was surprised to feel that the Rong barbarians were quite pretentious. We, the people of Kyushu, do not believe in the afterlife, but only in this life.
In this life, she is a feminine girl, and she is a feminine girl. In this life, a handsome hunter is a handsome hunter. In the afterlife, who still knows whom?
But in the hustle and bustle of Fanjing, Zhao Qi would occasionally sit alone on the old city tower, drink a drink, look at the sunset, and think about the words of this life and the next life in the mouth of the Rong people. Perhaps, in the hustle and bustle, there is really no need to look forward to the afterlife. But in this endless grassland, in the snow-capped Tianmang Mountain, by the long Jibu River that flows for eternity...... The Rong people who herd horses and sheep played the desolate horsetail piano and sang the distant song of Mula, they really firmly believed that this life is gone, and there is an afterlife.
On the Mobei grassland, several Rong people who are herding horses and sheep are singing in the distance:
Reincarnation, all things are immortal.
Quran Amu, the blessing of the true God.
Thy divine power has become a river of Jib,
Eternal life and eternity, nourishing the Lingge grassland.
The sheep in the past life is a moving girl in this life,
A war horse in this life is a mighty hunter in the next life.
Horsetail, Mola Song,
Shepherds, horse herders,
We're all singingβ
The wolf king of the steppe is our king of Helan Ye Khan!
The wolf king of the steppe is our king of Helan Ye Khan!
Zhao Qiqing clearly understood the last sentence of the pastoral song. He narrowed his eyes and saw the end of the Mobei Lingge Grassland, which was the legendary royal capital of the Rong Nationality - Wolf City.
