Chapter 247 staggered

Due to the large amount of goods pulled by the caravan, the journey was very slow, so it took almost a month before the group left the border of Jokhang. At this time, it was just in time for the sunny day of July, which happened to be the hottest time of the year, and at noon in the face of the dazzling sun, it was impossible to walk for a few hours, and both men and horses were tired.

"Why is it so hot here, it's still like a fire roasting in the afternoon" Hongdou lifted the bamboo curtain of the carriage up, let the wind blow in, wiped the sweat on his face, and then handed the kettle next to Mo Li, "Girl, drink saliva, on such a hot day, don't drink some water, be careful of heat stroke." ”

Mo Li took the kettle, but only took a sip, almost just moistening his lips. She is a woman, there are many inconveniences on the road, since half a month ago, after the caravan gradually traveled to a sparsely populated place, as long as she is on the road, she tries to eat and drink as little as possible, so as not to cause trouble. It's just that she really hasn't eaten such a real hardship, so in just a month, the whole person has lost a lot of weight, her chin is sharp, and her face is not very good. Of course, red beans are no better, and in the past month, she has not only lost weight, but also darkened.

"Why isn't it dark yet?" Hongdou took the handkerchief and wiped his sweat while saying with a bitter face, "Just in time for this time, if you set off in autumn, the weather can be cooler." ”

"It's windy here in autumn, it's not as comfortable as Yongzhou City, and then the wind on the grassland will blow your face, won't you be even more embarrassed to see Jia Hei when you go back." Mo Li smiled and joked to her, such a boring journey, if you don't take the initiative to have some fun, it will be really difficult. And after this trip, she finally understood why those businessmen who walked outside all the year round had a belly of yellow jokes to say. She had heard a lot of them these days, and at first she was embarrassed and pretended not to understand, but now she had learned to listen and smiled quietly.

Hongdou's face was tanned, and his skin was a lot thicker, so he continued Mo Li's words disapprovingly: "How embarrassed am I to see him, no matter how tanned I am, I can't compare to his face." It's him, let's be tired from running around with this, he must be drinking mung bean soup in the store to enjoy happiness this time, the girl should have called him at that time, let him suffer like this again. ”

"He's coming, you have someone to accompany you, don't be so boring, it's just what about the business in my store."

"Girl-" Hongdou pursed his lips, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly said, "I don't know if Ah Sheng received the girl's letter, and the girl sent the letter to him before she left, so the time should have come, and he doesn't know how happy he will be." ”

But at the mention of this, Mo Li showed a little worry on her face, she didn't know if she didn't go out before, but now that she has gone all the way, she knows that the world is so big. In such a place where there is no edge in sight, often walking for days without seeing the village, and the people are barely visible, can the letter be properly delivered to him?

"Girl?" I wanted to say something joking, but Mo Li's face darkened, and Hongdou called her puzzled.

"Let's not talk about this first, you can help me call the fifth uncle." Mo Li smiled lightly, and as she spoke, she lifted the curtain of the car entirely, and then put one arm on the window frame. Although Mogu also had a carriage, in order to get acquainted with the caravan and inquire more about useful information, he rode with the big guys most of the time. Hearing Hongdou shouting at him, he hit his horse and leaned over to Mo Li, and said casually: "It will be time to camp and rest in another hour." ”

"Fifth Uncle can you find out something, how many days will it take for our caravan to reach the Lingle grassland?"

The Lingel steppe was not the location of the Turkic court, but the camp of one of the tribes closest to the court of the Turks, and the destination of the caravan. Mo Li and the others planned to gather together with the caravan and make some preliminary preparations before setting off for the Turkic royal court.

"It's been three days in the grassland, and it will be fast to cross the hill in front of it, and at the current rate, it should take another ten days if it goes well." Mo Gu squinted and looked forward, his face was also tired, and after he finished speaking, he withdrew his gaze and turned his face to look at Mo Li. After hesitating for a moment, he continued with a cautious face: "I heard from the nearby herdsmen that after the defeat of the barbarians in Mingshan, many people fled with their leaders to all parts of the grassland to become horse thieves. ”

Mo Li nodded, she had heard about this two days before, and even heard that just a few days ago, a caravan was sacked by horse thieves, more than a dozen people, and only three escaped.

Mo Gu looked at Mo Li's obviously pale face, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and he was very uneasy in his own heart. In this trip, not to mention whether it can negotiate this big deal entrusted by the patriarch, I dare not guarantee whether it will be safe on the way to go. Although when they entered the grassland, the caravan invited another seven dart masters, and now there are twenty-two dart masters guarding this team, but the ferocity of the horse thieves and the coming and going like the wind have always been terrifying, not to mention that now there is a group of outlaws.

The timing is really not good, Mo Gu sighed in his heart.

In fact, Jokhang's post post is still trustworthy, and when Mo Li and the others turned over the hill in front, the letter she sent before was also delivered to Ah Sheng's beggar department, and soon delivered to his tent. It's just a pity that the other person is not in the Qiyan tribe at this time, let alone in his tent, which Mo Li didn't expect, and Ah Sheng didn't expect at that time.

In the battle of Mingshan, although the Turks were victorious, they were fled by the king of the other Khan, and many barbarians also fled, and they were scourging some small tribes under his tent everywhere. Such provocative methods naturally aroused the wrath of the Turkic royal court, so while reaping the results of the battle, they continued to send cavalry to pursue the barbarians who had become outlaws, and set a heavy reward for the head of the barbarian Khan.

Mo Li knew that this journey should not be easy before she set off, so she wrote a letter early, firstly to tell him that she was going over, and secondly, to hope that he could pick her up in advance and get more safety.

Now, however, the letter was delivered in due course, but it was also delivered in vain.

On the fifth day of Mo Li's caravan over the hills, everything was as usual, and the nerves of the entire caravan that had been tense for several days seemed to relax slightly, but the leader of the dart master reminded him at this time that only when he really walked out of this wasteland and saw the tents of the tribe could he be considered safe. At present, the world is vast, and it is the favorite haunt of horse thieves, and the team leader shouted in front of him, so that the big guy must cheer up and not relax.

Mo Li was a little flustered inexplicably, he had been worried for so long before, but nothing happened, and he couldn't even see the figure of the horse thief, and now there were only a few days left to go, so it shouldn't really be an accident at the end.

In fact, everyone has this worry in their hearts, but no one has said it.

At noon, the caravan passed by a seasonal river, and the leader asked the big guys to stop here to rest and replenish some water, because they might not be able to find such a good water source in the next few days.

It's almost August, and although the temperature hasn't dropped much, it's not as stuffy as before because of the wind. After the caravan stopped, Mo Li also got out of the car and went to the river with Hongdou to wash his face. In the end, the girl's family loves to be clean, and she doesn't dare to waste water casually on the road, and she can endure it, and now she looks at such a clear and translucent river, how can she let it go.

"Girl, look, what's that over there? Is it a horse raised by a herdsman? As soon as Hongdou wet the handkerchief, he found that a group of animals were grazing by the river not far away, so he quickly pulled Mo Li, "There are horses, does it mean that we will arrive at our destination soon, and there are people grazing?"

"Little girl, it's not a horse, it's a bison." Before Mo Li could speak, a middle-aged man came over and said with a smile, "It's rare to see such a large herd of bison, the bison on this grassland and the cattle on the cultivated land over there are very fierce tempers." Don't look at this is an ownerless beast, if you provoke them, even the wolves on the steppe will dare to rush to the top, and if they really run, these bison are not much slower than horses. ”

"Bison" Hongdou was surprised, that is, she opened her eyes wide and looked there, she had not seen what a bison looked like.

The middle-aged man saw that Hongdou looked innocent and was about the same age as his daughter, so he smiled: "Little girl, you are wearing a red dress, don't alarm them, these beasts can't see such a color."

Mo Li knew that this middle-aged man was a dart master invited by the caravan, so he asked, "Does the uncle often take it away here?" ”。

"Well, it's been almost ten years, and I'm not going to do it after this trip." The middle-aged dart master smiled, squatted down and washed his hands, then stood up and shook his hand and said, "While you can rest, you can eat something quickly, the wind is starting to be fierce, look at this day, it seems to be raining, I hope to find a suitable place to camp before the rain." ”

Hearing him say this, Mo Li immediately looked up, and sure enough, there was a dark cloud floating in the sky at some point, no wonder she felt a lot cooler.

"Girl, give it, I'll soak it in water." When he just got out of the car, Hongdou also took the dry food from the car.

Mo Li smiled, and motioned for Hongdou to sit down on the grass with her, but as soon as the buttocks of the two touched the ground, they found that several dart masters who were patrolling nearby suddenly rushed back, and then there was a commotion over there.

Mo Li and Hongdou glanced at each other, and Mo Gu ran over from the side, and said anxiously: "Quick, hurry up and get in the car, they found that there are horse thieves coming this way, we have to avoid it quickly"

The cake in Mo Li's hand fell to the ground, and the kettle in Hongdou's hand also fell to the ground, but none of them bothered to bend down to pick up the kettle, so they hurriedly followed Mo Gu to the convoy.

You should be able to guess the next plot, the two are about to meet, I'm afraid that the writing will not be good, so I think it's difficult, and the pressure is very high. 》_《
