This person is very easy to have a contrast psychology, there is such a handsome man standing in front of him, and then looking at himself, unkempt, full of sourness, sloppy...... It's no wonder that the man in black will cast a disgusted look, he is so dirty, he is really not qualified to ride the same horse with the man in purple.

"Brother Xia?" The man in purple called.

"Oh...... Ah, this ...... It's okay to give such a big gift," Yan Yunting scratched his head and said with a smile: "If you can have a mouthful of dry food, it would be the best." ”

The man in purple smiled heartily and glanced at the man in black beside him. The man in black took a wooden box wrapped in brocade from the saddle,

Before the wooden box was opened, a fresh fragrance came to my nose. When the wooden box was opened, there were six pieces of delicate pastry lying inside.

"This is a tribute, ordinary people can't smell it, today you are a blessing." The man in black stuffed the wooden box into Yan Yunting's hand.

Yan Yunting swallowed his saliva, but he didn't care about the image, grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, the entrance was soft, sweet but not greasy, even if he swallowed it, his mouth was still full of fragrance...... Delicious!

The man in purple smiled and handed over a sterling silver kettle and introduced himself: "My name is Li Yu, I am a horse merchant in the Western Regions, and this is my attendant named Bai Xi next to me, I don't know the name of Brother Xia?" ”

Yan Yunting took a sip of water, and waited until the pastries in his mouth were all in his stomach before replying: "Yan Yunting, a prodigal son." ”

"It turned out to be Brother Yan," Li Yu bowed his hand and asked again, "I don't know where Brother Yan went?"

Yan Yunting said: "Liangcheng." ”

"Coincidentally, we are also going to Liangcheng, here is a desolate place, it is also fate to meet Brother Yan, just two fast horses, I ride with Baixi, how about Brother Yan riding alone?"

As soon as Li Yu finished asking, Bai Xi pulled him aside and persuaded in a low voice: "Son, this person's origin is unknown, why don't you go to the sky and go to the side?" Anyway, we'll give him food and drink, won't we? ”

Li Yu shook his head slightly, and said softly: "Do you really think that I asked him to follow us all the way in order to repay him?" Look at the greatsword on his back. ”

"Sword?" Bai Xi glanced at the giant sword behind Yan Yunting's back and took a deep breath: "Hiss...... You can feel a domineering aura through the scabbard, and this sword seems to be familiar......" The next moment, she hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, no, a person like him, how can He De have a good sword?" ”

"That's why I asked him to come with us, looking for a chance to find out his origin, you must know that there are many people in the rivers and lakes who hide dragons and crouching tigers."

"But I look at him like a filthy thrift......"

……

Of course, Yan Yunting heard the conversation between Li Yu and Bai Xi, and he snorted coldly, Yangguan Road Dumuqiao, who rarely follows you two sissies all the way?

He patted the pastry scraps on his hand and took the head of the Wushuang good horse, "Brother Li said that he wanted to give me this good horse, and I suddenly felt that it was acceptable, so ...... Thank you horses. With that, he turned over his horse and galloped eastward on the red glow of the sky.

"Hey, you—"

Bai Xi wanted to step forward to stop him, but Li Yu pulled him back, and instead showed a smile: "This person is very interesting, let him go first." ”

"Childe, look, people like them are cheeky! Are you really willing to give Wushuang to this traitor? Bai Xi pouted, unwilling.

The corners of Li Yu's mouth curled slightly, "If he also wants to go to Liangcheng, we will definitely meet again." ”

"Hmm...... That's right, if this guy knew the identity of the son, he would definitely kneel down and kiss the son's feet...... Ah, no, this filthy man is only worthy of his son's shoes. ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, you hurry up and bring the poisonous blood back to Tianshan and hand it over to Elder Tang. This plague is very weird, I have to rush back to Liangcheng to find out. ”

"Well, you must be careful on the way back, when I bring the poisonous blood back to Tianshan, I will personally drive the crane to pick you up."

"Yes."

Li Yu turned over and got on his horse and galloped in the direction of Liangcheng.

……

The plague has spread to the border of Liangzhou, and after this autumn is a cold winter, and the days will be even more difficult.

In order not to attract attention again, Yan Yunting wrapped the gall with a coarse cloth. Su Zhen is a generation of heroes, and his death, whether it is for the court or for the rivers and lakes, is a huge loss.

Although Zhao Dan weighed only forty-nine catties, Yan Yunting felt that his back was hanging like a thousand catties.

The further west you go, the more people there are.

Although the border of Liangzhou is in turmoil all the year round, the central part of the country has maintained a strong style outside the country - the wild geese have returned and resigned, the sunset of the long river has been renewed, the clouds and moons of the road for 800 miles, and the frost and ice and snow for thousands of miles!

I don't know if it was panicked by the plague, the people of various towns and villages in Liangzhou moved to the west in large numbers, men, women and children, dragging their families and families, sleeping in the open air, they all had a common goal - Liangcheng.

More than 20 squares in Liangcheng, nearly 20,000 households, with 150,000 soldiers, is the most important border entrance of the Dayan Dynasty, by the Liang King Li Taichong as the capital, governing the twelve cities of Yongliang and the 36 countries of the Western Regions.

Even with the chaos, Liangcheng was the largest political and cultural center in the west outside the imperial capital of Chang'an.

The closer to Liangcheng, the more refugees there are, and some have set up simple shanties on the side of the road, built a bonfire, and hugged each other for warmth.

The war was finally quelled, and another catastrophe struck, and the refugees were displaced, all of them looked ragged and yellow-skinned, and there was an endless stream of pain and wails, and from time to time people starved to death on the road.

"Uncle, let's enjoy some food, the child is about to starve to death." An unkempt peasant woman, holding a skinny and skewy young man, knelt in front of Yan Yunting's horse, pleading.

Yan Yunting just shook his head, riding his horse to bypass the peasant woman, he had seen too many tragedies like this along the way, he was not ruthless and unjust, but he was powerless.

The rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, how can a husband be helped?

In the end, it will be prosperous, and the people will suffer! Death, the people suffer!

……

The gate of Liangcheng is closed, leaving only a pair of "ascending ladders" for people to enter and exit. The guards stood on the city walls, and the crossbow was ready to be fired.

"What do you do? Is there a general order to enter the city? A silver-armored non-commissioned officer stopped Yan Yunting on the city wall.

General order? Where did Yan Yunting have any general order to enter the city, he shouted at the non-commissioned officer at the top of his voice: "I am from the advance force, there is a change in Yongzhou, and the intelligence is urgent!" Please open the gates of the city now! ”

Unexpectedly, the silver-armored non-commissioned officer refused: "I don't care what advance troops you have, the palace has an order, in order to prevent the spread of the plague, from now on, those who do not hold a general order are not allowed to enter the city, dare to trespass, and shoot arrows to death!" ”

"Intelligence urgency is a matter of life and death! Please open the gates!"

"Don't let the fool me, let you cunning and treacherous outcasts enter the city, what if you bring a plague? Get out, get out! ”

"Go. You. Mother. Target. Yan Yunting gritted his teeth and cursed, but he was afraid of the bow and crossbow on the city wall, so he could only retreat away-

At this moment, suddenly, a sarcastic and familiar voice came from behind him:

"The urgent war report is heavier than the edict of the Son of Heaven, what is the royal order? As a non-commissioned officer of Liangcheng, don't you understand this? ”

Yan Yunting couldn't help but turn around, and saw a purple-shirted man riding a horse, with a king-like arrogance between his handsome eyebrows.

Li Yu?

"Hahaha...... Do you know that in Liangcheng, the decree of the palace has to overshadow the edict of the Son of Heaven! The silver-armored non-commissioned officer gave a thumbs up, and his expression was simply not too arrogant.

Li Yu said coldly: "Is the Liangcheng Guards such a reckless man? Where is the guard Wang Miao! Tell him to come out to me! ”

Yinjia pointed at Li Yu: "Who the hell are you?" Do you also deserve to meet our General Wang? ”

Li Yu said lightly: "My mother has died since she was born, I don't know who she is, but you should know my father, his surname is Li, and his name is Li Taichong." ”

Li Taichong?

Yongliang and the rulers of the Western Regions, when today's son's own uncle, the king of Xiliang, Li Taichong!

"Li Li Li ...... Li Taichong! The Silver Armor Sergeant was sweating with fright.

Li Yu took out a piece of the black jade unicorn order from his waist and shouted at the city wall: "Open your dog's eyes wide!" Who am I! ”

When the guards on the city wall saw the token, they knelt down and kowtowed: "See His Royal Highness!" ”
