Chapter 22: The sky is vast and the wilderness is vast
Sara Prairie
The sky is cool, the white clouds are fluttering, there is no hot sun in the past, only a cloudy day that makes people feel good. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and this kind of weather accounts for four-fifths of the past.
Dozens of tents of all sizes stand on a meadow with a wide view and abundant water and grass, and between the tents, the Lanxin people wearing wide robes and different styles are busy welcoming the new day.
Married women cut off their long hair, leaving it short, and wrapped it around their heads with a brightly colored turban, which looked like a beautiful hat from a distance, so that the long hair would not affect the fighting power of their masters, and when the tribe was in crisis, everyone had to fight for the survival of the tribe.
Of course, there are also well-behaved girls with long hair, who help their mothers with household chores, and occasionally come out, which is also the most beautiful scenery in the tribe, but these are all minority.
Most of the girls on the grassland are enthusiastic and fierce, and they will go out to help their father and eldest brother herd cattle and sheep together.
And the men in the tribe, they generally go out to graze cattle and sheep, every adult man is the most important fighting power in a tribe, they are natural knights, with the best archery heritage, the training that began at an early age, there will always be one or two children who support the future of the tribe to stand out.
Tribes also need to move constantly, and the pastures in one place cannot support the long-term development of their tribes, they need to move about 6 times a year, and this year, they have just started their first migration.
And today, the seventh day of their migration to this new place, a meadow with a branch of the Salaam River, is a very good place.
"Charvia... Charvia".
Out of the dome-shaped tent came a middle-aged woman, looking around, shouting a name, holding a small package wrapped in cloth, and on her simple face, there was a faint remnant of her youthful face, and on her head was also wrapped in a colorful hat.
A girl who was squatting on the ground to watch the lamb heard the cry, and immediately trotted back, and several scattered pigtails on her head kept trembling with the running of her master, looking very lively and cute.
"What's wrong, Eminem".
The middle-aged woman immediately showed a dissatisfied look when she saw the girl, and she said with a little seriousness and a little worry.
"Sharvia, you are already twelve years old, you can't run around, in a few years, a young warrior will come to the door to marry you, you have to learn from Eminem how to arrange a home now."
Charvia, who had been taught a lesson, lowered her head, her face was full of indifference, but when she saw the small package in Eminem's hand, she showed a cheerful expression again, and she excitedly said to Eminem, "Eminem, are you going to send food to Abba again."
"Well, your Abba and his brothers in the tribe are going to drive the sheep to the river to drink water today, and he is in a hurry to leave in the morning, so you go and bring this food to your Abba, and I will stay and weave last year's wool."
As he spoke, Eminem handed the small package to Charvia and whispered to her to be careful on the road, although this area has been explored by the people of the tribe and there are no people from other tribes, but the grassland is always changeable.
"Well, got it".
Charvia replied excitedly, and then galloped to the few horses tied to the tent and pulled out a bright little red horse, and then strode up, pulling the reins of the horse and running eastward, which she had sent a few times before, and was very fond of going to the river to play.
Seeing Sharvia riding away, Eminem turned around and went back with some sorrow.

"The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, the people of Iraq are looking forward to my return, the wind is sluggish..."The leisurely song sounded on the grassland, and with the approach of the song, a beautiful and fresh child gradually came from a distance.
A rabbit stood up and looked at the place where the sound came, its round eyes rolling and its furry ears trembling.
After a few moments, the rabbit spread its legs and ran backwards, as fast as a bolt of lightning, and disappeared in an instant.
"Oops, it was actually discovered" Liu Qing stood up from the grass on the other side, just now he saw a rabbit, he wanted to catch it alive, but he didn't expect the rabbit to be so clever, and he was relieved at once, he really had nothing to say.
"Gotcha, gotta gotcha" The sound of brisk horses' hooves sounded, Liu Qing turned his head to look over, and a little red horse with brisk steps trotted out from behind a hillside in the distance.
"Hmm, someone, let's hide and see."
Liu Qing bent down, climbed to a place where the grass grew relatively high, and secretly observed the people through the dense grass.
"Haha.. Haha" The crisp and joyful voice was like a free lark, and Sharvia rode happily on her beloved little red horse and ran happily across the wide grassland.
"Well, it's hard to come out once, you have to have a good time, haha" Cheering herself up, Sharvia laughed to herself.
You must know that the sisters who play together in the tribe are much freer than her, and when they can go galloping, she can only stay in the tent to help Eminem weave woolen blankets, and listen to their laughter with envy.
When they could go to the herd with Abba, she would be left at home, and she would not be able to come out at all, except for the occasional meal for Abba, as she did today.
Although the sisters all said that it was because Abba Eminem only had one daughter, so they cherished her very much, so they didn't let her do these things, but how could a daughter on the grassland be locked in a tent and not be able to go out and gallop.
Alas, thinking of this, Sharvia lowered her head, but the moment she looked down, she seemed to see something, and she looked up, but it was gone, could it be that she was wrong?
Charvia thought of what Abba had told her before, that there are many hunters or animals who like to hide in the grass and then sneak up on animals or pedestrians who pass by, which is a very dangerous thing.
Charvia looked carefully at the higher meadow, and as she got closer, she noticed something unusual, there was an obvious animal or person hiding in the middle of the grass and suppressing it, and she didn't see the prairie pika everywhere around.
The only possibility is that there are people here!
Sharvia was a little panicked, it was the first time she had encountered this kind of thing, and in Abba's words, the danger of the grassland was very terrifying, and she had to run away if she encountered it.
So, Charvia decided to listen to her parents and run!
But before she ran, she wanted to test it, if she guessed wrong, wouldn't it make Abba hungry.
Quietly drew the arrow, and took the short bow on the horse's belly in his hand, pretending not to care, but secretly bent the bow and took the arrow.
"Hey" shot the arrow fiercely, and Sharvia didn't know to hesitate, and immediately turned around and rode his horse.
Run!
