When it was time for the fifth watch, Ruo Tan was woken up by Zichen, and the first thing she said when she opened her eyes was with concern: "Are you better?"

Zichen took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, secretly pinched her beautiful little nose, and said with a light smile: "How can there be no reason not to heal after eating your elixir? Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

If you see him in good spirits, you will be relieved.

Danami warmly brought her water to rinse.

After washing, Ruo Tan put aside the jewelry he took off his head last night, and combed his hair with a wooden comb.

Seeing this, Zichen sat down beside her, gently pulled out the comb in her hand, and combed her hair like black satin.

Ruo Chen's heart was pounding, a trace of blush appeared on his face, and he saw Danami picking up her jewelry to admire, her eyes were shining, and she liked it very much.

Seeing this, he found all the jewelry from the baggage, leaving only a red gold butterfly pendant agate and a golden hairpin for fear of sometimes curling his hair, and the rest was given to Danami.

Danami was surprised and delighted.

If Tan went out this time, because he didn't want to attract attention, he didn't have much jewelry with him, but it was also worth 100 gold, although Danami wanted it very much, but he didn't dare to accept such a generous gift.

Ruo Tan deliberately said angrily: "I heard that you Huns, if your friends don't accept gifts, it proves that you don't treat each other as friends."

I really want to be friends with my sister, but I don't know if my sister will give in?"

Danami looked at Gesang in a dilemma.

Gesang said angrily: "Our Huns' daughters are not allowed to twist and pinch, so what if you accept it?"

When Danami heard this, she dared to accept it, and her joy was overflowing.

Zichen combed Ruochen's hair for Ruochen, but he couldn't curl it.

When Danami saw this, she volunteered, "I'll comb my sister's hair like mine." ”

Ruo Tan glanced at her pigtails hanging down, and immediately shook her head into a rattle.

She is a Han girl, and she has to comb her hair several times a day, and if she breats a pigtail like Danami's, it will take a lot of time to remove it just once.

The reason why Hun women love to braid like that is that they comb it once for half a month, and second, their hairstyles are not easy to mess up, which is very suitable for grazing in windy weather.

Finally, Danami combed her with two marijuana braids and hung them down on her chest, making her more elegant and quiet.

Gesang's wife and Danami worked together to fry a bunch of fried dumplings, make several naan, and roast two leg of mutton.

Everyone ate a delicious breakfast, and Zichen and Ruochen got up to say goodbye.

Gesang sent them out of the tent, pointed ahead, and said: "Go forward, you will see a small forest, and further south, through a large stone pebble field, you will come to a grassland, and after walking through those grasslands, you will reach the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, and the spirit python is near the Tianchi on the side of the Tianshan Mountain." ”

As he spoke, Harithai brought two horses, one large and one small.

Gesang said: "The road to the Tianshan Mountains is not easy to walk, especially after crossing the stone pebbleland, no horse can not pass with Ben, there are wolves in the grassland over there, these two horses are given to you to do leg strength." ”

Zichen smiled: "My sister can't ride a horse, I'll just ride with her." ”

When Gesang heard this, he handed him the reins of the tall black horse.

Gesang's wife came out, put the roast leg of lamb and naan that had been specially left behind in the blanket on the back of the big black horse, and gave them a sheep's milk full of sheepskin pots, and finally let a slaughtered sheep hang on the horse.

Zichen said thank you, tied Ruochen's fur cloak, put on a pheasant feather snow hat, picked her up on the horse and sat sideways, got on the horse himself, arched his hand vigorously at the Gesang family, said: "Thank you", and spurred the horse away.

In less than half an hour, the two of them rode to the grove that Gesang had mentioned, and when they turned south, a vast area of gravel appeared in front of them.

There was not even a nest of dead grass on the gravel floor, except for pebbles large and small, and the whole earth seemed to be dead and lifeless.

The gravel landscape made people feel a terrifying desolation, a suffocation that even the big black horses beneath them stopped running, and walked restlessly back and forth on the edge of the gravel.

Zichen bowed his head to Ruochen and said, "Hold my waist tight." ”

Ruo Chen did as he said, and his little face, which was a little frozen in the wind, was very comfortable against Zichen's warm chest.

Zichen shook the reins, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and the handsome horse stepped into the stone pebble, walking step by step with great care.

Ruo Tan tilted his head slightly and looked down, and through the bright moonlight of the moon setting in the west, he saw that each pebble was covered with a layer of ice that was imperceptible to the naked eye, probably caused by the condensation of the snow that had melted before at night.

The pebbles were already slippery and difficult to walk, and they were covered with ice, making it even more difficult for the big black horse to walk, and several times his hooves slipped and he almost fell to the ground.

After walking for nearly two hours, a round of warm sun has hung high above the blue sky, the ice on the pebbles has gradually melted, and the big black horse has finally walked more smoothly.

It was only at this time that Zichen and Ruochen saw a snow-covered yellow earth appear in the distance in front of them.

The big black horse, which was already a little tired, seemed to have smelled the breath of the grassland sent by the cold wind, and suddenly became energetic, neighed, let go of its four hooves, and accelerated its pace to run towards the withered yellow area.

Half an hour later, the two of them finally walked out of the stone pebble.

The big black horse was so tired that his legs and stomach were shivering.

Zichen jumped off the horse first, and then hugged Ruochen, who was about to freeze.

Ruo Chen was so cold that he jumped on the ground and said to Zichen: "I'm thirsty." ”

Zichen looked around, but couldn't find firewood and grass, so he had to take out a sheepskin pot from the blanket on the back of the big black horse and give it to Ruochen.

A few mouthfuls of cold goat's milk went down his stomach, and Ruo Chen was so cold that his upper and lower teeth fought fiercely.

Zichen also drank a few sips, and fed the big black horse a naan.

After resting for a while, the humans and animals set off again, and finally arrived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains at noon.

The two got off the horse, Zichen took the blanket and the whole sheep off the big black horse, fed the big black horse two naan, patted its head, and said, "Go find some grass to eat, and wait for us here." ”

The big black horse seemed to understand, spread its hooves and ran to the grassland not far away to nibble on the dead grass.

Ruo Tan asked worriedly, "Will it be gone forever?"

Zichen smiled: "A horse is the same as a dog, as long as the owner treats it well, it is very loyal." ”

Ruo Tan suddenly realized: "No wonder you feed it naan." ”

Zichen smiled, and when he saw that the trees on the Tianshan Mountain were luxuriant, he went up the mountain to get some firewood and grass, made a fire, and roasted the leg of mutton and naan to share with Ruochen.

The two of them were full of food and drink, and Ruochen's body was much warmer, Zichen carried the blanket and the whole sheep on his shoulders, and took her hand and walked towards the Tianshan Mountain.

The Tianshan Mountains are covered with snow all year round, and once the golden autumn is over, the snow does not stop, and the climate is extremely cold.

Zichen dragged Ruochen to crawl hard in waist-deep snow, the heavy snow and the cold wind blew so that people's eyes could not be opened, the two almost groped forward, Zichen made the snow hat of pheasant feathers for Ruochen was also swept away by the wind, which made her sad for a long time.
