Chapter 160: Between the Vast Sea of Clouds

Ling Tiancheng calculated from the map where Zhuang Siyan went.

Zhuang Siyan also had a map in his hand, calculating when he would be able to reach the foreign land.

In the middle of this, she tried it, and the two Ling Tiancheng's eyeliners didn't seem interested in following her to explore further.

Even now, the two of them are also routinely doing their own work, Zhuang Siyan has nothing to tease them, and in fact, he hasn't said a few words.

If these two people can't do it, they have to get rid of them as soon as possible.

Ling Tiancheng might have known what she was going to do, and if the two of them continued to follow, it would only disrupt his plans.

She looked carefully on the map, from the town where she stayed at this time to the palace, there were two more towns.

These two towns don't seem to be big, and there are a few villages scattered around, and as for the specifics, we won't know until we get there.

But Zhuang Siyan can't take the risk to the end, she has to arrange everything before going out.

Putting the map away, she straightened her clothes and went out, calling the two eyeliners at the same time.

Of course, the eyeliner didn't say a word, and went out with her, Zhuang Siyan walked around the town and bought a lot of food.

Passing by a drugstore, she stood at the door and said, "Who, can you go in and buy some medicine for me?" ”

Eyeliner looked at her with a bewildered expression, waiting for the order from behind.

Zhuang Siyan: "I have a pain in my lower abdomen recently, maybe there is something wrong with menstruation, you go in and ask the doctor, see what kind of medicine to use, take some first." ”

The two eyeliners were stunned for a moment, and then their faces turned red.

Two big men, oh hey, the profession is still the role of a straight man of steel like Ouchi Guard, can you not blush when you hear this kind of words?

His feet were like growing on the ground, he didn't move a little for a long time, his head was lowered, and he didn't even have the courage to look at Zhuang Siyan.

Zhuang Siyan deliberately waited for a while, and then asked him, "What's wrong?" ”

The eyeliner didn't speak, but the face was even redder.

Zhuang Siyan also pretended to be completely unaware of what was going on with him, and it took a long time before he suddenly realized: "You haven't married yet, have you?" ”

Eyeliner nodded.

She let out a long "oh" and said helplessly: "No wonder ......, blame me, I shouldn't embarrass you, okay, you guys take your things and wait here, I'll buy them myself." ”

Zhuang Siyan bought two packs of soothing muscles and invigorating blood, and put on a pack to make people sleep well.

When they returned to the inn, it was almost dusk, and the three of them sat down to eat together as usual.

She didn't have to think too much, she had already successfully put the medicine into the tea.

The two Ouchi guards kept getting along with her for a long time, and they never saw her do anything out of the ordinary, so they naturally lowered their vigilance, so this time they were properly recruited.

Before the meal was finished, the two climbed a table.

Zhuang Siyan got up, gave the shopkeeper a piece of silver, and asked him to help take care of the two of them until he woke up, and he went back to the house to get something.

Go out, get on your horse, and go all the way west.

The distance between the two small towns was not too far, and she could go out in almost a day and a night.

And even if these two people can't sleep for that long, it will be difficult to chase her after waking up.

Zhuang Siyan leaned on the horse's back, stepped on the moonlight, and walked forward like an elf in the night.

Although it has not been to a foreign land, it is also close to the border, with few people and animals, and as far as the eye can see, woods, meadows, and long winds and sand.

Summer is over, and the early autumn nights are a little cool.

The rough and cool wind brushed on the face, with a rustling feeling, not very painful, but somewhat comfortable.

In the past, Zhuang Siyan always wanted to travel to the west, but unfortunately, she had no money when she had time, and when she had money, she was busy with life.

I thought about it for many years, but in the end, it didn't come to pass.

I didn't expect to come to the ancient times, but she was able to come here, but this time she was in too much of a hurry, and she had to avoid Ling Tiancheng's people, otherwise she really wanted to stay in this place for a while.

A crescent moon, at some point, has hung in the sky, covering the earth with a faint layer of silver ash, like someone sprinkling silver powder on it, with shining points of light.

The dwarf grass on the side of the road, shaking its leaves in the moonlight, made a "whoosh" sound in the distant woods, the sound of the wind blowing the branches.

Walking on a night like this is one of life's great pleasures.

The horse's hooves "got to" go forward, Zhuang Siyan was about to be interested in making poetry, but he held back for a long time, and he didn't come up with a suitable sentence, so he could only chant a poem of the ancients.

"The bright moon rises out of the Tianshan Mountains, and the vast sea of clouds.

The long wind is tens of thousands of miles, blowing the Yumen Pass. ”

The border pass is charming, but the conquest since ancient times also started from the border pass, so the last two sentences of this poem are written on the battlefield.

"Hanxia Baideng Road, Hu peep into Qingwan.

came to the battlefield, but no one returned.

The soldier looked at the side, and thought about how bitter he was.

High-rise buildings are at this night, sighing is not idle. ”

The better the thing, the more people want to covet it, and since ancient times, no one can do anything about it.

She sighed softly and rode her horse faster.

In the middle of the town, Zhuang Siyan did not stop, and when he arrived at the last town, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

She found an inn, slept well in it, and when she got up, she had a full meal.

Only then did he spend some money, entrusted the horses to the treasurer's safekeeping, and went out to get a few sets of clothes and came back, changed his makeup, inquired about a small town caravan, and mixed in to go out together.

Wen Qing's people had been waiting at the border gate for a long time, and from the day they received the order, they strictly inspected the people who left the customs.

And Wen Qing painted Zhuang Siyan's special, possibly dressed as a man.

This group of people did not let go of a suspicious one, these days, there are more than a dozen men and women similar to Zhuang Siyan just arrested, and they are still waiting for Wen Qing to recognize them.

And Zhuang Siyan heard these news when he was shopping for clothes in the town.

So she went against the norm and dressed herself up as an old woman, who had to be in her seventies, with a sunken face and teeth about to fall out, but in fact she had black paper pasted on it.

The wrinkles on her face were the same as tree bark, her hair was even whiter, and she deliberately made some smells on her body, which made people want to avoid her from afar.

The caravan didn't want to take her, but Zhuang Siyan made a generous move and directly slapped two ingots to the leader, and the other party let her follow.

The pass is getting closer and closer, Zhuang Siyan is still nervous, but on the surface he is quite calm, silently following the caravan, not in a hurry, not slow, and not attracting attention.

The front line was formed and the inspection began.

The goods brought out, and the personnel, those soldiers were reluctant to pick at their faces to see if they could peel off human skin or something, and see if there was still a layer inside.

But the group checked it and found nothing, only one was somewhat similar to their paintings, and it was detained, and the others could only be let go.

What is the way, to what extent the modern makeup is good, everyone can see it, and Zhuang Siyan is well versed in this, and he plays like a fish in water.

The most important thing is that no one at the border has ever seen her, just based on the portrait, where can you really find someone?

In this way, Ling Tiancheng made preparations in advance, and Wen Qing also felt that he had laid a net, but Zhuang Siyan still went out.

She looked at the handsome flag fluttering in the wind on the upper floor of Guancheng from a distance, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile.

If it's really nice here, why not go back?

Anyway, Ling Tiancheng loved the fourth lady of the Zhuang family, not her, she Zhuang Siyan had no nostalgia.

She thought hardly, but inexplicably felt sour in her heart, as if someone had gently pinched the tip of her heart, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Zhuang Siyan shook her head, leaving the person's name behind, and cast her eyes ahead, looking at the outside of the vast wilderness, another world she had never seen.

Ye Cheng appeared in Zhuang Siyan's eyes praying.

A white tent is set up on the ground with abundant water and grass, surrounded by countless cattle and sheep, girls wearing different clothes and wearing various fresh hairstyles, walking around on the grass.

They hold milk buckets in their hands, or they simply hold dolls.

There is a rough face that has been blown by the wind for many years, but there is also a slight smile.

Most of the boys went to herd cattle or joined the army, so among the herdsmen, women and children were the majority.

The Dasheng Dynasty and Yecheng often have wounded team contacts, but no matter how bad the fight is outside, for ordinary people, normal life still has to continue.

Moreover, in the past few years, the border pass has been relatively calm, and the Dasheng Dynasty has not sent troops to attack Yecheng, although Yecheng has accumulated troops, there is no plan to send troops at the moment.

So the smile on people's faces is real, it comes from the bottom of their hearts, and they feel that life can still be passed.

As soon as the caravan stopped at the makeshift bazaar in Yecheng, it was immediately surrounded by people, some exchanging cattle and sheep for cloth, and others exchanging local specialties for the specialties of the Dasheng Dynasty.

Zhuang Siyan only took a cursory look, did not go to join in the fun, but found an unmanned tent, and after entering, he took off the clothes on his body, changed into a local set, and then changed his makeup.

When she came out again, she was no different from the locals, and even because she changed into a woman's outfit, she was a little beautiful.

Yecheng is also just a border town for the entire exotics, and if you want to find their Kyoto, you have to go inside.

Zhuang Siyan asked a woman for directions in a stiff exotic language, and then bought a camel from her family with silver, exchanged it for some milk tea and cheese, and then returned to the road.

A day later, Zhuang Siyan entered the foreign capital, a place called Shakash.

The architecture of the capital is different from that of Yecheng, the Great Sheng Dynasty is controlled, there are walls and gates, and houses are also built inside.

Although they were nomads, they probably also wanted to be stable, so the royal family lived in modern houses.

Of course, there is no such thing as the Dasheng Dynasty, where the beams are carved and the buildings are built, and several floors of high-rise buildings are built.

The wind and sand here are big, but there are no stones, and if you can't build a foundation, you can't build a tall building, which is a fact.

After Zhuang Siyan entered Shakashi City, he first found an inn to live in.

It is said to be an inn, but it is similar to the current homestay, there are only a few rooms in it, the host lives in half, and the other half is left to the guests.

Zhuang Siyan paid enough money, accommodation, and food.

Unlike what she imagined, you can see people from the Dasheng Dynasty on the streets here, and their costumes are messy, some are wearing Shakhash, and some are wearing Dasheng Dynasty.

Zhuang Siyan inquired with the landlord and learned that these people had moved here many years ago, as if they had escaped some disaster at that time, and then they didn't go back.
