The sword came from the north to the world and knew the Southern Dynasty
Nan Ke nodded, in fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that if there is really that kind of large waterway is discovered, the enemy can open up the mountain range without too much effort, and invade the northern region in a big way without knowing everything, so there is also a lookout for the northern region on the south side of the mountain, and the main purpose of garrisoning Yangcheng is to defend the spies, and if the garrison stationed on the south side of the mountain finds an abnormality, he can come back through this waterway at any time to report the news.
As the cave gradually goes deeper into the ground, the cave gradually opens up, and the height is enough for the two of them to straighten their waists, and there are small water droplets hanging under the stalactites on the top of the rock, which only feels cold on the face, and you can always see a white skeleton on the side of the road when walking, most of the enemy spies are lost in the cave, starving to death, for the enemy, the northern region will naturally not collect the corpses for them.
After walking for a long time, he finally saw the bright light, and walked out of the cave, but it was like another world, Nan Ke suddenly felt that the temperature was a little high, and took off the white fur on his back and held it in his hand.
"Is this the Southern Dynasty?" Nan Cao muttered to himself.
"It's hot now, and it's a little hot in this frontier, so you go all the way to the south, and in about half an hour, you will see a city called Sinan, and then you will reach the Southern Dynasty." The guard said.
Nan Ke clasped his fists and saluted, went to the guard at the lookout to get a thin horse, and rode to Sinan City.
On the way, he sighed: "These soldiers guarding on the south side of the mountain are really hard, even if they can't see their relatives and friends in the northern region, at least they are still home, here...... It's a foreign land, but their armor is beautiful, and they have a wolf's head carved on their chest. ”
For two hours along the way, it was already night, the lights in Sinan City were bright, and one after another fortification points outside the city wall were also guarding the people of the Northern Regions in the Southern Dynasty.
Nan Ke waited outside the city, the so-called old horse knew the way, Nan Ke patted the old horse's buttocks, it knew where to go back, until the guards who guarded the guard changed shifts, wrapped the Xixue sword with linen, and then quietly climbed the city wall.
"Why are there so many lights at this hour?" Nan Cao wandered around the city, only to find that there was no curfew at all.
Nan Ke walked on the street, no different from the people of the Southern Dynasty, and no one cared where he came from.
When you first arrive, the best place to go is naturally the inn and tavern, accommodation and food are one thing, and there are traders and pawns from all over the rivers and lakes gathered in this kind of place, which is the most suitable for finding out the news.
"Little Er, come to two taels of beef, a good wine for a while!" Nan Ke sat in an inn, curious that this inn did not close its doors at night and did not rest.
After a while, the wine was warm, and the meat slices were served. Nan Ke took out some broken silver from his arms, he had inquired before, the Southern Dynasty could not use the silver tickets and silver ingots of the Northern Regions, but no one could see the broken silver.
"Xiao Er, let me ask you something, when I first came to Sinan City, I didn't know some rules, one is that the queen mother died, why is there a song and dance tavern in the city, and the other is that there is no curfew in this side of the city?"
The corners of Xiao Er's mouth raised, and he whispered in Nan Ke's ear: "The guest officer is from the north, right?" ”
Nan Ke's heart jumped suddenly, but he didn't know where the flaws came from.
Before he could react, Xiao Er then spoke: "Don't get excited, guest officer, we have seen a lot of guests like you here, it's okay, it's just ......"
Before he finished speaking, Nan Cao took another two taels of silver, and the little two smiled and put it away, and continued: "The guest officer is bright! A guest like you is in the Southern Dynasty, but there are a few things to pay attention to, one is this custom, all the cities in the Southern Dynasty have been curfew since the registration of His Majesty, and no one has heard this word in the Southern Dynasty for four years, and the second is your accent...... With some taste of the Northern Regions, but to hide a little, but it doesn't matter, after all, ordinary people have little contact with the people of the Northern Regions, and when they hear it, they only think that they are from that remote place, as for your question, after the death of the Queen Mother, Your Majesty Shengming, decreed that the world only needs to be vegetarian for three days, and then everything is as usual, only the royal family needs to keep filial piety for 100 days. But you really can't tell that you are a northerner, so you don't need to scruple about that. ”
Nan Ke nodded, he really didn't know these things, especially the accent problem didn't expect it at all, but this little two ordinary contacts with more people in the Northern Regions, and he could hear one or two, and a lot of spies from the Ordinary Northern Regions of the secret path were also dispatched. As for the matter of the three days of the world's vegetarian affairs, it is easy to understand that the Southern Dynasty is preparing to go to war, if it is forbidden to sing and dance and commercial affairs at this time due to national mourning, it will undoubtedly be a huge impact on the finances, how can there be no money to fight? I'm afraid that it's not that the Southern Regions want to go to war, but that the Northern Regions are going to take the initiative!
"Thank you, you can get busy first, and prepare an upper room for me." Nan Cao said as he threw out another piece of broken silver.
The little two took it with a smile: "Thank you, guest officer!" ”
Nan Ke went back to his room to sleep after eating, but he was not afraid that this little two would go to the informant, every time he came to the Northern Regions, it was a lot of hush money, and smart people would not break the deal, if there was really an abnormality, Nan Ke was not without the confidence to run away, but he couldn't fight, couldn't he run? If you can't run to the Southern Dynasties, is it still difficult to run back to the Northern Regions? Anyway, it's going to be war, what are you afraid of hurting the peace?
After a day of running, Nan Ke also felt tired, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep.
There was nothing to do all night, early in the morning, the rooster in the courtyard of the inn crowed early, Nan Ke bounced up from the bed, he was in a foreign land, he should be on guard, and he had four years of experience in the snow fox camp, and the basic reaction was still there.
After getting dressed and pushing the door out, Xiao Er immediately greeted him, it wasn't the person from last night, it should be a shift to rest.
"Yo, guest officer, you got up early, your business Niu Er told me yesterday, you came by coincidence, there is a temple fair in the city today, it should not be like this during the national funeral, but in order to thank Your Majesty Shengming, change the 100-day national funeral to three days, today in this city to worship the city god, set up a temple fair, you can go and see."
"Temple fair?" There are few temple fairs in the Northern Regions, which is the custom of the Southern Dynasty, Nan Ke went there once when he was a child, but unfortunately he had no money in his pocket at that time, so he cried and shouted to ask Yusheng to buy a string of sugar gourds, and asked Han Gexiao to eat half of it.
Nan Cao nodded, took out two coins of silver and threw them to Xiao Er, being in a foreign land, you might as well spend more on the trouble that can be avoided with money, not to mention that Nan Cao is now a rich man, and those six apprentices have sent people to the Snow Fox Camp to send silver.
Walking on the avenue of Sinan City, Nan Ke basking in the sun, looking at the vendors and residents coming and going on the street, but a little uncomfortable, stayed in the Snow Fox Camp for four years, the sun is rare, not to mention, there is no business there, most of the soldiers who can be seen in the day are the soldiers who change shifts and the students who practice martial arts, or they are drunkards who drink all night and only sober up and go home the next day.
Nan Ke is already white, not to mention that he has been in the snow fox in the year-round ice and snow for four years, his face is like snow, and the sun on the summer morning is sprinkled on Nan Ke's face, and he wants to reflect the light, and a young man in a green robe is eye-catching.
