The seventh round of the city of Shouyang
Long Yi woke up from his shock at this time, and Meng Yanchi had already led the team to the "Shenma Ranch". Long Yi smiled at Li Xin, beat his horse and followed.
The two girls struggled to follow the middle of the group, and the rest of the group was more than a foot away from her. Seeing that they were really pitiful, Long Yi patted his horse and walked to the two girls, turned off his horse and turned his back to them, and said, "You are women, it is not easy to travel long distances, so it is less painful to use horses as a step." The woman in the cloak was at a loss, and it took a long time to understand Long Yi's intentions and hurriedly shook her hand, but she didn't speak. Po Liuhan Baohu walked over and said to Long Yi: "Childe, these two girls are very strange, I haven't heard them say anything more since I took them up the mountain. "Oh, I see, the two girls must have been taken by you to the robber's den and were afraid to speak." Long Yi picked up the cloak woman and helped her sit on the horse, and then helped another girl onto the horse and sat behind the cloaked woman. He also said to Po Liuhan and the tiger: "The woman is weak and can't travel for a long time, let her ride a horse and I'll walk on foot." Po Liuhan, Heishan and others were greatly impressed by Long Yi's benevolence and righteousness. The corners of the cloak woman's mouth moved, and she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything.
Three days later, Long Yi and the others returned to the "Shenma Ranch", the team was just approaching the gate of the village, suddenly heard a piercing wolf howl, a snow wolf the size of a lion pounced out, and the big men in front of the team screamed in unison and hurriedly retreated. Long Yi, who was walking behind the team, shouted: "Thorn Snow ......"
The Snow Wolf King heard the sound and ran happily to Long Yi's side, and the cloak woman on the horse saw the Snow Wolf King's vicious appearance and was frightened and exclaimed: "Wolf ......", the voice was as good as the yellow oriole chirping, and she covered her mouth in horror as soon as she made a sound. Everyone's eyes turned to the woman in surprise, and Long Yi smiled and said to the woman, "You finally spoke." The woman in the cloak lowered her head embarrassedly, if it weren't for the fact that her face was dirty and she couldn't see it, she was afraid that she would be as red as the sunset on the horizon. Po Liuhan Black Mountain came over and looked at the Snow Wolf King who was playing with Long Yi and said: If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that the Snow Wolf King and the Wild Horse King among the rumored five strange beasts had actually been surrendered by Gongzi, which shows that Gongzi is not comparable to ordinary mortals, and he is even more admired in his heart. It's a pity that he didn't know that Long Yi also got the two beast kings by chance.
Back at the pasture, Long Yi instructed Meng Yanchi to take 100 people into the forest to cut wood, Po Liuhan Heishan led 100 people to build wooden houses, Li Xin took 100 people out to hunt for food, and the rest of the people were taken by Long Yi and Po Liuhan to collect wild horses in the mountains and drive them back to the ranch for adoption. After a month, the number of wooden houses outside the ranch expanded to more than 100 with thousands of wild horses, and then rows of stables were built along the cliffs in the canyon. In this way, the ranch began to take shape.
During this time, Long Yi ate and slept with the Poliu Han people, which made Poliu Han Heishan and others grateful, and they were glad that they had finally found a good master. As soon as they had free time, Long Yi led them to practice martial arts and play, which was not only a pastime, but also a training team.
Long Yi chose a secluded wooden house for the two women to live in, and idlers were not allowed to enter casually to avoid inconvenience. The two women usually don't go out, and Long Yi is extremely busy during this time, so he doesn't have time to visit them.
One day, on the way to find a horse, Long Yi encountered two people who looked like traders who were besieged by wolves, embarrassed and dying. Long Yi asked the Snow Wolf King to go over and form a siege, and the Snow Wolf King stepped forward and howled, and the wolves dispersed in an instant. Long Yi rescued the two and brought them back to the ranch.
In the evening, Long Yi led his subordinates to burn a bonfire to drink and have fun, because the Poliu Han tribe loved to drink very much, so Changlong Yi asked He Bimang to go to Qingshui City outside the mountain to exchange some game for water and wine, so as to satisfy the brothers who drank well. Long Yi sent someone to invite the two women to come and have some drinks, but the two women refused, so Long Yi instructed Jia Zhuang to bring some food to their room.
The two vendors were more frightened, and after a minor tune, they were no longer in trouble, and they picked up their wine glasses and walked to Long Yi's table and bowed down and said, "Liang Su Ping, Chen Shiji thanked Gongzi for his life." ”
Long Yi secretly smiled heartily and said: "The two gentlemen don't have to be polite, they met by chance on the road, they raised their hands, why worry about it, there is no need to say much, come, let's drink this cup together." ”
Su Ping, a long-faced businessman, took a cup: "Gongzi is really a bold and righteous man, I know a little about the art of physiognomy, and now I look at Gongzi's face as a dragon among people, and he will have some achievements in the future." In my life, I only passed through Wei and met a Western Wei general surnamed Yang Mingjian, who had this temperament, but Yang Jian lacked some heroic spirit, but he also had a kingly appearance......"
Long Yi heard the interest and said: "The person who is so valued by Mr. Su must have his merits, I hope I can have the opportunity to meet him in the future, by the way, the two gentlemen are from Nanliang, I don't know what the situation in Nanliang is now?" ”
"Alas! Now Marquis Jing of Southern Liang is the self-proclaimed governor of the capital and holds the power of the imperial court. Emperor Wu of Liang was starved to death by him in Taicheng, and Hou Jing set up another emperor and continued to control the government. That Hou Jing was a capricious villain, originally Hou Jing was a general under Gao Huan, the prime minister of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, Gao Huan turned to the Western Wei Dynasty after his death, and Yu Wentai, the prime minister of the Western Wei Dynasty, did not trust him, Hou Jing surrendered to the Southern Liang again, Emperor Wu of Liang was incompetent, led the wolf into the room, and accepted Hou Jing's surrender, Hou Jing saw that the Southern Liang army lacked combat power, led the troops to kill Jiankang, and surrounded Emperor Wu of Liang in Taicheng, Hou Jing was brutal by nature, slaughtered and plundered everywhere, and killed more than 100,000 people on the attack on Taicheng. ”
Long Yi was filled with righteous indignation when he heard this, and threw the wine glass in his hand on the ground with a 'snap', "There is such a wicked person in the world, I want to kill him alive." "Grandma's, if I meet this thief, I will definitely unload him and feed him to the 'Thorn Snow'." Li Xin said: "Brother Chi, this is not right, that person's meat must be stinky, if you let 'Thorn Snow' eat it, won't you eat a bad stomach." The Snow Wolf King, who was squatting aside to share fresh meat with his family, heard Li Xin's short howl of "Woo woo..." Li Xin smiled and said, "Look, with the intelligence of 'Thorn Snow', if you put that person's flesh in front of it, it won't eat it." Meng Yanchi said repeatedly: "Very, very..."
Chen Shiji continued: "However, I heard that Chen Baxian, the defender of Jiangling, is planning to attack Jiankang and eradicate the extremely vicious Hou Jing. General Wang Seng responded positively. Maybe it won't be long before troops can be sent to Gangneung. ”
Long Yi sighed lightly: "They are all bitter people!" After being silent for a long time, he said to Su Ping and Chen Shiji: "The two of you, please take a seat, you don't need to be polite, maybe there will be a place where the two gentlemen can be used in the future, don't postpone it." ”
Su Ping saw the opportunity and bowed down: "If the prince does not give up, the two of us are willing to listen to the order under the prince's account, now the war is continuous, the world is in chaos, and the people have no way to live." Our traders are innocently affected, and most of the goods are either looted or seized, and there is no way out. Today, I see the scale of Gongzi's ranch, and the Helu Mountains are extremely rich in products, and there are many minerals. It is said that there are countless gold, silver, and iron ores hidden in the mountains and forests, and if we use these resources, we will definitely be of infinite use. To be honest, this time, Brother Shiji and I took the risk to enter this Hehu Mountain just to collect ore. ”
Long Yi was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to Su Ping: "Okay, what Mr. said is very reasonable, in the future, the two of you will be fully responsible for mining and business matters, let it go, if you need to find me or Li Xin, we will give you full support." ”
Su Ping and Chen Shiji were moved to tears when they saw Long Yi trusting him: "We will live up to the high expectations of the son." ”
Since then, Su Ping and Chen Shiji have been so busy that they have forgotten to sleep and eat, first going to the south to take in five or six hundred refugees into the mountains, building houses next to the lake outside the gorge, and then going deep into the caves in the belly of the mountains to find mining land and collect ore. Su Ping knew that these manpower were far from enough, so he set up a shelter for displaced people in Qingshui City to collect refugees. Anyone who comes to the ranch, Long Yi will find a way to make them eat and drink enough every day. This is rare in the turbulent times when wars are rife and people are hungry, so more and more refugees have come to the camp to enter the camp of refugees.
"Shenma Villa" has a scale, and Long Yi is also free, so he wants to go out for a walk, so he asks Su Ping to lead the way, and takes Li Xin, Meng Yanchi, Po Liuhan Black Mountain, Po Liuhan Capture Tiger, and Snow Wolf King to the nearest Shouyang City to have a look and buy some necessary supplies, and instruct He Shumang to stay at the pasture.
Listening to Su Ping, Long Yi knew that the river outside the 'Horseshoe Valley' was called the 'Gangster River', and went down the 'Ganggang River' for two or three days out of Hehu Mountain, which is the Qingshui City around the Great Periphery, and it took two days to pass the Qingshui City to the west of the Great Zhou to defend the heavy city of Shouyang, and the five people and horses were fast, and they arrived in two days. The Great Zhou Dynasty borders on the Western Wei Dynasty, the Southern Liang Dynasty, the Tuyuhun Dynasty, the Dangxiang Dynasty and the Huqiang Dynasty, and the relationship is delicate. King Jing of Zhou changed Yicheng to Yijing as the capital, General Shi Muzhong led troops to garrison Qinzhou to defend Western Wei and Southern Liang, and Han Qiong garrisoned Shouyang to defend Huqiang, Tuyuhun and Dangxiang. Shouyang City is a barrier for the Great Zhou to defend against foreign enemies, and the land is fertile, there are many grasslands, and it can be cultivated and pastured. In addition, the products are extremely abundant, and foreigners have coveted this area for a long time. It's just that the Western Wei Dynasty, Huqiang, Tuyuhun, and Dangxiang are all eyeing this place, and they can't hold each other for a while.
Long Yi and his entourage paid money to enter the city, and the pedestrians on the street were longing, people came and went, and it was still lively, but it was strange that passers-by were all rushing to the city, and people were panicking. As soon as Su Ping inquired, he learned that a group of nearly 100,000 thieves from Liangzhou had moved from Liangzhou to attack, so the residents in the city were panicked. However, the people living in this city have seen too many wars, but they are still in order, and there is no great chaos.
In the middle of the walk, someone in front of a tavern made a fight, causing a crowd of onlookers. The six people stepped forward, and the onlookers saw a fierce snow wolf in front of the six horses with their heads held high and avoided it.
