Chen Lu realized his gaffe, yawned to cover it up, and said, "Miss Dolan, let you suffer from the bumps, is this considered a dove occupying the magpie's nest?"

Duolan said: "Lord Chen is too polite, this car was originally Lord Chen's. I'm sitting in it and it's the dove occupying the magpie's nest. ”

Chen Lu hummed noncommittally and said, "Dolan, you look great on horseback, my old man is convinced." ”

Luhatu ran over, rode on his horse and said loudly: "My lord, the little one has chased for three or four miles, and he has not seen the brigade, I am afraid that the lord is in a hurry, and he will come back to report." Mantai and Mazi are still chasing, I have already told them that after chasing for ten miles, the brigade will be waiting for us there. ”

Nalan said: "Don't be afraid that Lord Chen is in a hurry, he is comfortable." Look at the forks in the road, the ruts. ”

Chen Lu saw that Nalan was talking too presumptuously, and had the heart to say a few words to her, and then Dolan spoke: "Sister, you should pay attention to what you say, how can you talk to Lord Chen?"

Nalan realized it and hurriedly said, "Lord Chen forgives you." ”

Only then did Ruhatu have time to speak: "There is indeed a sheep intestine path over there, we have seen it, and there is no rut." ”

Chen Lu frowned and said, "Is there a fork in the road here?"

Ruhatu said firmly: "There is no here, not even a sheep intestine trail." It's all gravel, you can't see if there are ruts at all, and it's all mountain streams and valleys, and there are no people."

Chen Lu said: "You haven't rested all night, are you tired?"

Nalan said: "The tired bones are almost scattered. The brigade is not resting, and Lord Chen is asleep again, how dare we rest without permission!"

Han Liu'er said, "My lord, the horse can't run anymore, let's take a rest." ”

Doran said, "No, the brigade should be set up camp, and we should rush over to eat." I really can't catch up with the team, and we have to see us fight in the front battle first, and they are still waiting for us. ”

Chen Lu felt a little bad, but after thinking about it, there would never be three or four hundred people who had an accident together, right? He didn't dare to show his face and said, "You all learn from Duolan." Okay, just listen to Dolan, we're not going to be short for a while, accelerate forward. Dolan, you get in the car. ”

Nalan had already turned the horse's head, and when she heard Chen Lu say this, she turned her face again, looked at it for a while, and found that Chen Lu had already gotten out of the car, and she took the horse away.

After walking for nearly ten miles, the sun had risen at this time, and the two of them, Mantai and Mazi, were standing on the side of the road and waiting. Lu Hatu hurriedly ran over, and Chen Lu saw two people shaking their heads.

Chen Lu panicked, this is a dirt road, there are messy ruts coming and going, and it is impossible to judge whose car it is. Some houses and Mongol felt bags have already been seen here.

Lu Hatu also watched on the road for a while, and then ran over and said: "My lord, they didn't catch up with the barbarians, I saw it, and there was no rut in our brigade." Our brigade has a lot of heavy vehicles, the ruts are obvious, and I have seen the barbarian platform and pockmarks for a long time, but no. The brigade hasn't come yet. ”

Chen Lu comforted everyone, it's okay. Everyone found a small stream, camped two miles away from the official road, set up a big tent, and Chen Lu ordered to set up a fence. The soldiers were inexplicable, but they did not dare to disobey the order, set up a village, cook, and feed the horses.

Chen Lu and Nalan walked to the side of the car, and Dolan also came over and said, "Lord Chen, why did you still set up a village and not leave for the time being?"

Chen Lu said solemnly: "I can't go, something happened to the brigade." ”

Nalan was taken aback and said, "No, such a large group of people and horses, it is impossible to quietly stop moving, or go to the fork in the road." ”

Chen Lu shook his head and said, "Nalan, you are smart in ice and snow, if it were you, can you take the path in this mountain stream and canyon? Even if you want to walk, we are separated by a mile or two, they will leave someone waiting for us, or make an obvious mark." ”

Dolan said: "That's the case, listening to Lord Chen say this, it's really like this. ”

Nalan nodded and said, "Didn't we let that old witch of the Bat King trick into the desert that time! ”

"I don't know, eat first. ”

Seeing that the big tent had been set up, Han Liu'er was standing at the door. It's a signal to the boss that everything is ready and ready to come in. Chen Lu walked into the big tent to eat breakfast.

After eating, Chen Lu took Han Liu'er and walked out, which was also a canyon area. To the south of the road is a large wheat field, and to the north of the road is a wasteland, undulating hills, but all green grass, and some yurts are planted here. Chen Lu found that Mantai and Mazi and others were leading their horses and walking there.

Chen Lu turned around and walked towards the peasants in the south of the country. When the peasants saw these two strangers, they wanted to go away. Chen Lu hurriedly greeted them in Western Dialect, and these people looked at them suspiciously.

Chen Lu regretted it, he should have taken those two beauties with him, they are both Mongolians, and women give people a sense of security, and he Chen Lu and Han Liu'er are both Han officials, which is easy to make people feel awe.

Chen Lu talked to them for a while. This place name is bald, in the southwest ten miles there is also a reason, and then go to the northwest more than 100 miles to have a thousand households, called Kong Ge Si Shou Yu thousand households. Chen Lu asked them if they had seen any soldiers, and they all said no. Chen Lu thanked him and returned to the station disappointed.

Kong Gesi Thousand Households, he has been there, there is a big river there, called Kong Gesi River, but after a few years, he has forgotten it. He was deeply touched and had learned a lesson.

This time, he had a booklet that recorded the situation of each camp, and asked Han Liu'er to write it down when he was busy. Later, he found that Li Xian was sometimes remembering, in case the mission returned, or when the imperial court went to the Western Regions on business in the future, he had first-hand information.

Chen Lu has no other way now, only one word, etc. He ordered a break. Chen Lu slept for most of the night, not sleepy at all, took out the booklet, read it from beginning to end, saw if there was anything missing, slowly recalled, and made up for it.

I don't know how much time passed, Nalan came, startled Chen Lu, and said, "There are no rules, don't make a move first when you come in." ”

Nalan didn't answer directly, and whispered, "Go, hurry to my big tent." ”

Although the voice was very small, Han Liu'er woke up and hurried up. Chen Lu took a look at it and saw that it was already too late, and immediately followed Nalan to their big tent. As soon as I entered the house, I saw red light filling the room. Nalan's face was like a peach blossom, while Chen Lu and Han Liu'er's faces turned black and red, just like the sauce that had just been prepared.

Dolan pointed at the three of them and laughed. Several people looked at each other, but without speaking, Dolan pointed to the red coral gem on Nalan's bed again.

Chen Lu said: "My old man has seen the face of the sixth son, this broken baby is still very reasonable, the face of the sixth son is the color of pig liver, but the two of them are peach blossom color." ”

Han Liu'er straightened her neck and muttered a few words, then swallowed her words back. Nalan said, "Han Liu'er wants to say that Lord Chen's face is the same as his. ”
