Chapter 115: The Spring Breeze also passes the Jade Gate

"Chief Zheng, how's it going? The current Yumen Pass is still quite beautiful, right? Wang Shan, who was behind, rushed over, looking at the scenery in front of him, Wang Shan said with some pride.

Not long after Zheng Ning's caravan left Dunhuang County, Wang Shan and them appeared and protected them from coming here, but Wang Shan and they had been following the caravan before.

Seeing them stop on this hillside, Wang Shan rushed over on his horse.

"How did you do that? This...... How can it be! Zheng Ning looked at Wang Shandao with an incredulous expression, if the place of Yumen Pass could be planted with grass or crops to this extent, how could this place be abandoned?!

Although it was true that there was a water source here in the Han Dynasty hundreds of years ago, and the aquatic plants were also good, it was hundreds of years ago.

The changes in geography and landform are huge!

Zheng Ning has passed by here in different seasons, it can be said that he has followed the caravan to the Western Regions since he was not yet crowned, until today, twenty years have passed, and this oasis near Yumen Pass is shrinking every day, and sooner or later it may disappear.

But now, how long has it been since so much has changed here?!

"See that river?" Wang Shan pointed to the river that was completely coiled along with the oases on both sides.

"See, did you dig through the underground river?" Zheng Ning asked curiously.

"No, this is a miracle brought by the general, and it is the immortal spring that the general let the heavens descend!" Wang Shan said categorically.

Now not only Wang Shan, but all the people in the entire Yumen Pass believe this, the well water that the general in the city once said, they didn't feel anything at first, but as they continued to drink, they finally discovered the abnormality of the well.

They drank the water from the well every day, and so far no one has fallen ill, and even some people who were not in good health have become healthy day by day!

And Wu Ping secretly asked Wang Shan to try one of them, if he didn't eat and only drink the well water, although he would be hungry all day, but it wasn't that powerful, but he didn't seem to have a full stomach.

Wang Shan, one of these old pawns, has been tested, he drank well water for five days in a row, did not eat, did not work every day, just a small amount of exercise, but there was no big problem with the whole body!

Although you can't die without eating and drinking water for five days, it is absolutely impossible to have any strength, and it is good to be able to lie in bed and live.

All they understood was the wonder of this well!

Moreover, they ate a full meal every day, drank this well water, and trained every day, Wang Shan felt that their already declining bodies had actually begun to get stronger and stronger again!

This can be said to be a secret, or it can be said that it is not a secret, so Wang Shan did not hide it, but said it directly, because Wang Shan knew that outsiders would not believe it.

Indeed, Zheng Ning didn't believe it, but Zheng Ning also had to admit that this was a miracle in front of him!

"Everyone, let's go!" Zheng Ning took a deep breath and said loudly.

The caravan soon began to hit the road again, and as they approached the Yumen Pass, from the outside, the walls of the Yumen Pass had not changed much, but they had to pass over the river first.

The river originated in the northern part of Yumen Pass, then flowed eastward, then bypassed the eastern side of Yumen Pass, and then turned in the direction of Yangguan in the south, winding all the way out of their sight.

Judging from the trajectory of this small river, there should be traces of human control.

But these are not important, the important thing is that when he walked in, Zheng Ning found that the two sides of the river bank were actually alfalfa grass and alfalfa!

These alfalfa grasses grow the farthest, about three or four hundred meters away from the river, but this distance grows only sporadically, and then about the place near the riverbank, the denser it becomes.

By the time we got to the river, the alfalfa had grown to a height of at least a dozen centimeters, which ...... You must know that the last time Zheng Ning came, although there was that river here, the sides were still bare!

"Did you have it the last time you came?" Zheng Ning couldn't help but ask the people from his caravan, the last time he came here was about half a month ago.

"Yes, but at that time, it was just a little alfalfa sporadically on both sides of the strait, and we were still amazed at the time, but we didn't expect it." The caravan man immediately nodded and said.

Ten days to become like this? Zheng Ning looked at these with a shocked expression.

You must know that alfalfa is not to mention in the Western Regions, even if it is placed anywhere, it is an excellent pasture! Whether it's cattle, sheep or horses, it's excellent!

And alfalfa is the same as ordinary weeds on the grassland, after cattle and sheep eat it, they can continue to grow!

Of course, the best way is not to graze directly, but to harvest it by hand and then feed it to cattle and sheep, which will save a lot of pasture.

Although it was hard to believe, but now that the facts were in front of him, Zheng Ning couldn't help but believe it, and he didn't ask Wang Shan how he did it, because Zheng Ning felt that he had asked, and it was estimated that Wang Shan was going to say that it was a miracle of their general again, although Zheng Ning also felt that this was something that people couldn't do.

When their caravan entered the Yumen Pass, Zheng Ning felt something like it again, that is, these people around them, the clothes on their bodies were not complete, some of them were linen clothes from the Central Plains, patches were stacked on top of each other, and some were wearing some clothes made of the same fur as the Turks.

However, all the clothes were very shabby, but what really surprised Zheng Ning was that everyone he saw had ruddy faces, smiles on their faces, and their eyes were full of hope for the future, and everyone's smiles were from the heart.

This mental state doesn't look like some refugees, even ordinary residents of Chang'an probably don't have such a good ...... Zheng Ning didn't know how to describe it.

Anyway, in Chang'an, you can see a lot of ordinary people with numb faces or sad faces, but there is no such situation for people here, even if the surrounding environment is still so shabby.

"Team Leader Zheng, welcome, welcome." As soon as they entered the Yumen Pass, Wu Ping had already led the team to meet them.

"Mr. Wu is polite, Mr. Wu's complexion is getting better and better, and he is getting younger and younger." Zheng Ning saluted Wu and couldn't help but speak.

What he said is true, because although Wu Ping is over the age of six, but now his face is ruddy, and he feels like a tiger when he walks, not like an old man at all, but like a middle-aged man.

"Thanks to the general, my old man should be able to live a few more years to help the general check and fill in the gaps." Wu Ping immediately smiled and arched his hand towards the position of the west, because Huo Gang was in the west at the moment.
