Dashi was scolded for no reason, so he had to leave in a huff, wanting to find an inn to live in temporarily.

After walking for a short time, they saw a wine banner wafting at the corner of the street, and the three of them walked over smelling the aroma of wine.

"Three of them are outsiders, right? Is it to come here to worship the Buddha or to worship? The bartender greeted Dashi and the others while gathering the livestock.

Oishi asked suspiciously, "Can't we be merchants?" ”

The bartender smiled: "Not to mention that you don't have any goods in this luggage, even if you do, the merchant will never choose to enter the Heihan Kingdom here, go through the four counties of Hexi, cross Loulan, and wear Ili, this is a smooth road, how can you get to this Yemili River Valley?" ”

"Ye Mili?" Dashi was overjoyed when he heard these three words, and he excitedly grabbed the bartender and asked, "Could it be that this is Yemili City?" ”

The bartender was in pain, trying to break free but in vain: "This is the Devil's City, and the city of Yemili is in the upper reaches of the river, and there are still more than seventy miles according to it!" You...... You let me go! ”

Although this is not Ye Mili, Oishi is still overjoyed to learn that his destination is close at hand.

"There are two rooms, just bring good wine and food!"

Seeing the big customer, the bartender immediately laughed, and soon filled the table with delicious food and wine.

Full of wine and food, bathed and fell asleep, finally faded away from the exhaustion, the big stone, the tower is not smoking, and the Ulan day slept until the sun was three poles, and then was woken up by the sound of gongs and drums outside the window.

I put up the pole, and I saw thousands of men, women, and children on the street outside the gate huddled around an ox cart and drove in the direction of the city gate.

Four oxen pulled the cart forward slowly, and many white-clothed servants sounded gongs in front of the cart to open the way, and pious people burned incense and worshipped along the way.

"It seems that the car is loaded with the copper bull I saw yesterday!"

Although the items on the car were covered by red silk, just looking at its appearance, Ulanri could guess that it was not far from ten.

Dashi sneered: "The copper ox seems to be heavy, but most of it is hollow, and I don't know why I have to use four oxen to pull the cart, which is really overkill." ”

"Hollow? How so? Ulange was surprised.

"Axles!" Who wants the tower not to smoke, but it opened his mouth before Dashi.

"Ta Buyan is right." Dashi said with a smile: "The load geometry of a pair of cars is not to see the number of animals pulling the cart, but to look at the thickness of the axle and the material."

As far as I can see, the axle bowl is thick and thin, made of willow wood, and it can carry five or six hundred catties at most, and the copper ox is as tall as one person, if it is solid, it is more than five or six thousand catties, how can this car be pulled?"

"No wonder those dozen women were able to move the copper ox yesterday, that cow is really hollow!" Ulange suddenly realized.

Dashi got up, straightened his clothes, changed into official boots, and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's solid or hollow, you two pack up here, and when I return, we will set off for Yemili." ”

"What does Lord Ringa want?" Ulange asked.

Dashi carefully put his official card on the front and back of his chest and said: "Although this devil city is not under the rule of my Great Liao, it is not subordinate to other countries, I am going to visit the city to control, if it intends to be attached, wouldn't it be a good thing?" ”

Ulanri sighed: "Lord Lin Ya never forgets the affairs of his family and country wherever he goes, the little woman admires, you take care of yourself, I will take care of Miss." ”

After packing the required items, they brought a lot of Hu cakes (naan), and Ulanri also found a bartender and poured two pots of Dashi's ten-minute love moussaleth (a kind of Xinjiang wine).

But after waiting for two hours, Ulanri and Tabuyan did not see Dashi returning, and I couldn't help but feel anxious.

At this moment, the street outside the window became noisy again, and Ulan Ri glanced out the window and suddenly screamed and lost his voice.

"Big Stone Tree!"

I saw that at this moment, Dashi had been tied up with five flowers, and was pushed and shoved by a group of white-clothed servants in the direction of the city gate, and several of them kept calling Dashi "murderers".

"Miss, you sit in the room, I'll go and go back!"

After saying that, Ulanri ran out of the tavern in a panic, squeezed past the crowd of onlookers, and pounced directly on Yelu Dashi, but was stopped by the messenger.

"You can know that he is the envoy of the Great Liao Dalin Tooth Academy, the champion of the Northern Branch for three years, and the fast son-in-law of the prime minister of the Northern Liao Mansion, how dare you do this?"

A big-shouldered and round-waisted servant pushed Ulan Ri away and said, "I don't care who he is, it is a capital crime to kill our ruler, so we will escort him to the bank of the Yemili River, sink into the river with the sacred ox, and sacrifice the undead of the river god and the lord!" ”

Ulanri couldn't scuffle, so he had to scream: "Lord Linya! You're talking! How can you kill someone? ”

But Dashi turned a deaf ear to Ulanri's heart-rending shouts, and followed the servants without raising his head, like a walking corpse.

"You see, the prisoner has already confessed to the crime, so don't waste your efforts!"

With that, the strong messenger pushed Ulanri to the ground.

"Impossible!" Ulanri knew the purpose of Dashi's visit to the control lord, and it was impossible to kill people for no reason, so he hurriedly ran back to the tavern, wanting to take Ta Buyan to the river to save people.

But at the moment, the guest room where they lived was empty.

"Miss! Miss! ”

Ulanri shouted loudly, causing the customers in the store to stop and watch.

"Oops! My female bodhisattva! How can I do business when you shout like this! ”

"Do you see the girl who came with me?" Ulange asked the bartender anxiously.

"Is that the stupid woman in red? After you went out, she left one after another, didn't she go to you? ”

Ulanri ignored the bartender, and immediately rushed out of the store and ran in the direction of the city gate, she knew that although Ta Buyan's mind was damaged, her feelings for Lin Ya were getting deeper and deeper, and when she saw him in trouble, she would not stand idly by.

The course of the Yemili River is meandering, the river surface is almost level with the grassland, and in the rainy season, the river often floods, washing away countless cattle and sheep, and even the river course will change because of this.

For decades, there is only one deep-water basin called Bird Bay that has remained unchanged.

The people of the Devil's City were instructed by a high monk to make a bronze ox and sink into the Que'er Bay to sacrifice to the river god, hoping that the wind and rain would be smooth this year, and the Cao River would be peaceful.

Unexpectedly, the city control that was supposed to preside over the ceremony of sacrificing the river was suddenly assassinated, and the people were so excited that they vowed to sink the murderer into the bay.

Ulan Ri ran to the river, saw that the boulder had been tied to the copper bull, very anxious, at this time, only to see a girl in red a few somersaults, fluttering on the horns of the cow, Ulan Ri was overjoyed, because this person is Xiao Ta Buyan.
