Chapter 446: Mother River, Ah! Holy Water!
The next day, at noon, the sun was shining.
In front, it is the plain of Pingchuan, and behind it, is the border of the Tang Dynasty, where the Zhennan Army is stationed, and it is also the military city of the southern Tang Dynasty - Yanmen Pass!
After a short rest at Yanmen Pass, Lin Zifan and his entourage continued southward, preparing to enter the Qin State through the gap between the three kingdoms, and then cross the Qin State, and then pass through the Yan State and enter the Qi State.
The State of Qin, strictly speaking, does not border the Tang Dynasty, but it is not too far apart, so the relationship between the two countries is not too tense.
"That's fast!"
While galloping on the horse, Han Xue suddenly sighed: "From Chang'an to Yanmen Pass, it only took one and a half days, and it was extremely stable, before, it was really unimaginable!"
"Isn't it the credit of our family?"
Spring, summer, autumn and winter raised his head high, and said proudly: "The adult invented the asphalt road, and now the asphalt road has been paved from Chang'an to Yanmen Pass, we have gone all the way, naturally it is fast and stable!"
"Indeed!" Han Xue and the other guards nodded in agreement.
"Lin Shangshu's contribution and invention really make me and other women ashamed!"
"The emergence of asphalt roads has more than doubled the speed of the mobilization of our Datang army, and the same is true for the speed of grain and grass transportation!"
"Hey, let's fight in Datang after that, it's fun, and even our Praetorian Guards may suddenly go to the front line and kill her back and forth!"
The women sighed with emotion, and the janissary who had been hanging at the end was burning at the moment......
There was some dust on her face, in fact everyone was like this at the moment, but because of this, no one could see her face clearly......
All the way south, passing by the border of the three countries, not long after, Lin Zifan waved his hand, and everyone stopped on the edge of a cliff......
Thundered!
At the bottom of the cliff is the canyon, like a waterfall that roars down 3,000 feet, one after another......
On the other side of the cliff is a mountain peak, which at first glance looks like a roaring tiger's head!
"This is Tiger Leaping Gorge?"
Lin Zifan was quite curious.
"My lord, this is it!" Han Xue smiled and nodded: "When I accompanied His Majesty to the south to go on a personal expedition, I went here, and Your Majesty also beheaded one of the other party's generals here!"
"I heard Your Majesty mention ......" Lin Zifan chuckled: "Take a look." ”
He jumped off the wildebeest, and the maidens immediately followed, following him to the edge of the cliff.
The Tiger Leaping Gorge is so deep that it can almost be described as bottomless, and the clouds and mist under it are so deep that you can't really see it at all.
But there is one point, Lin Zifan sees it clearly......
At the 'starting point' of Tiger Leaping Gorge, about the position of 'half waist', Huang Bulaji's thick water column gushes out, and ...... There is also a slight sundry in it.
At the same time, a wisp of stench wafted in the wind......
"It's ......"
Lin Zifan was stunned for a moment, and then instantly understood, with a blazing face.
Isn't this sewage from a long arrangement?
It is normal for the domestic water of hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an, plus pickled things or something, to gather together to form a small river.
It was only from Chang'an, thousands of miles away, that I stayed here through the 'sewer', and naturally formed such a 'dirty waterfall'......
Well, it's a dirty waterfall, literally.
"How so?"
However, Han Xue and the other guards looked surprised.
"Captain, what's wrong?" some guards were puzzled.
Han Xue explained: "You have just joined the Praetorian Guard, and you have never been to Tiger Leaping Gorge, so naturally you don't know ......."
"Tiger Leaping Gorge, there was no waterfall before, not to mention, how could this be a waterfall that suddenly came out of the waist, and this water ...... It still stinks, it looks like a mixture of debris and pickled matter and sewage......"
Lin Zifan: "......"
I'd love to give you a thumbs up right now, okay?
Can you see it so clearly from a few hundred meters......?
But he can't say that he is so 'unkind' and drains the dirty water, right?
Although I heard the empress say that the 'Ah Sanguo' in the lower reaches of the Tiger Leaping Gorge doesn't mind, if it spreads......
Lin Zifan always felt a little lacking in morality, cough cough cough......
After standing in Tiger Leaping Gorge for a while, the group set off again, and after walking along the border of the three kingdoms of Afghanistan for a distance, they finally stepped into the territory of the Qin State.
Because Lin Zifan and his party were dressed as merchants from Yan Country at the moment, and they didn't make trouble along the way, they were relatively calm.
But after entering the territory of the Qin State, Han Xue and the others couldn't help but complain......
"Phew, this is Qin Guo?" Han Xue pouted and said, "This road is much worse than our Datang asphalt road!"
"Isn't it?" Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter agreed: "It's still a stone road, and there are a lot of dilapidated roads everywhere, and the running is not smooth, it comes and goes, it's bad!"
"Doesn't it mean that the development of the Qin State is extremely good, and there is even a tendency to unify several nearby countries?
Lin Zifan: "Forehead ......"
He didn't know how the Qin State was developing, but he ...... Why are you embarrassed to say that other people's roads are bad?
He couldn't laugh or cry.
Before this, Datang's road was so rotten that it couldn't be seen, right?
It's all dirt roads, and there are potholes everywhere, and the mount will 'stumble' if you don't pay attention, and on rainy days, it's even more miserable......
Even now, most of the official roads of Datang are still like this, who gave you confidence?
Although everyone's words were praising themselves, this still made Lin Zifan a little ...... Ahem, cough, it's so fragrant, it's a little more troublesome, let me swell a little~!
Lin Zifan smiled all over his face and didn't speak......
......
Three Kingdoms, a magical country, there is no one......
This can be reflected in many ways.
For example, military ...... The armies of other countries value combat effectiveness, weapons and armor, etc., but the Three Kingdoms of Afghanistan value more like 'acrobatics'!
When the emperor inspected the barracks, the soldiers all performed combat skills and actual combat drills, but Ah Sanguo seemed to be playing acrobatics......
In short, it's like a military parade of a certain degree, a motorcycle, can sit on a reinforced company!
In addition, there are many magical places that people from other countries are amazed by......
The Ganges River is the recognized mother river of the three kingdoms of Afghanistan!
Many people's family members have passed away and are to be buried in the river, thinking that this is the respect for the deceased!
Every morning, the people of the three kingdoms wash in the Ganges or its tributaries...... , such as washing your hair, washing your face, taking a shower, or something......
At the same time, they also drink the holy water of the Ganges, believing it to be the source of life......
Well...... That's right, the people above are bathing, the people are drinking water dozens of meters away, and there are even a lot of soaked corpses floating on the surface of the river.
At this moment, on a certain section of the main road of the Ganges, several swarthy women were chatting while washing.
"Ahh
"Yes, and the smell of the Mother River has become stronger and stronger lately, and it ...... suck."
"Take a sip to refresh your mind and take two sips...... I can't get sick!"
"It's really a great mother river, you wash it first, and I'll drink a few sips of holy water before ......"
“......”
