Volume 1: Painting Blood Volume 1 [Painting Blood] 065: The Western Regions Seeking the Holy Land of Loulan

() He Lingyun's words touched Wen Xiao. I really didn't expect:

a pampered young owner of Heyuan Villa;

a scholar who only knows Yan Yuan and Confucius;

an ignorant boy who doesn't know the ways of the world and the sinister hearts of people;

Now, with the food he has come, he is grateful for God's mercy in front of himself.

What was it that poisoned his mind? Could it be the misfortune of his family that caused him to suffer an unbearable blow?

Wen Xiao's thoughts were complicated at the moment, and he stared at him without saying a word......

Xingyun didn't know what happened to him, but he felt that his demeanor was very green, and he could feel that this child was extremely innocent from his eyes. But at the same time, he also saw that he had a soft spot for Wen Xiao, so he jokingly whispered in Wen Xiao's ear: "Second sister, this child is in love with you, hehe......"

Wen Xiao laughed when he heard Xingyun's suggestion, how could he not know He Lingyun's infatuation with his stubborn stalking? It's just that the two are very different in age, their thoughts are far apart, and they are people from two worlds at all. It's just that an ignorant teenager who is just beginning to fall in love has an illusion about himself.

Piaoxue said to He Lingyun: "I don't care about your business! I'll give you a piece of gold, which should be enough for you to make ends meet for a year. You take it to study hard, and in the future you will gain fame to win a bright future, and don't think about begging on the streets. ”

After saying that, he took out a golden ingot from his cuff and handed it to him.

He Lingyun took the gold, but still didn't give up: "Then if I really achieve fame according to what you say, would you still be willing to meet me again?"

Wen Xiao thought about it:

If I say 'no', he may be devastated;

If I had said 'see,' it might have saved a down-and-out teenager.

Xian'er and I killed his father with our own hands back then, and now if we can save him, it can be regarded as compensation for the He family's life!

But if he knew that I was his father's killer, it would inevitably break his heart. It's better to embarrass him.

Then he said, "Well, since you insist on seeing you, I will make a few conditions for meeting." There are three things you need to do. I'm willing to see you!"

He Lingyun immediately asked, "Which three?"

Piaoxue saw that he was a little cramped, but there was still a determination in his eyes. Suddenly I felt that his emotions were so pure, and the intention of wanting to see each other again was particularly obvious, and I couldn't help but tremble: Is he really in love with me? How is this possible? No, this is just an illusion!

She stopped the gratuitous thoughts that had sprung up for a moment, and elaborated:

"First: From now on, it is forbidden to enshrine the ancestral tablet of the He family.

Second: support yourself, gain fame, and save enough gold taels.

Third: 3,000 people who are dedicated to goodness, help the needy, and survive suffering.

When these three things are done, I will meet you on the shores of the Dock Lake;

If you can't finish it, even if you and I pass by, I won't recognize you. Not to mention the past, do you dare to agree?"

He Lingyun didn't even think about it, and accepted the agreement categorically: "Okay!

What He Lingyun thought was:

The ancestors of the He family have repeatedly committed many injustices, and they do not worship the He family's spirit card, which is to make me change my mind and change my mind;

Let me gain fame and save 10,000 taels of gold, which is to let me get ahead;

Helping the needy and relieving the suffering and saving the three thousand is the meaning of letting me do good and accumulate virtue.

Every word is for my good, and I can't live up to her heart. So he confidently agreed to her conditions.

The two made this verbal contract, and Wen Xiao turned around and left.

He Lingyun looked at her distant back faintly, and there was a sense of reluctance in his heart, but also a sweet expectation......

Everyone said goodbye to He Lingyun and continued to look for Mei Sanniang's whereabouts. It took more than an hour to find all the streets where she once met

At the end of the alley, I didn't inquire about the trace of the fortune teller.

The next day, Mu Tong led everyone to Wuyun Cottage to inquire, but to no avail. I only heard the disciples say that Mei Sanniang is in the Western Regions.

So in order to save time, everyone decided to divide the army into two ways:

Dao Meimei and Xian'er took their apprentices Mu Qiuyang and Mu Tong, and the four of them rushed to the palace to find the colorful phoenix-tailed pigeons;

Wen Xiao, Xingyun, and Nangong Yao rushed to the Western Regions, first, to find Mei Sanniang's whereabouts, to return to the colorful coral grouper, and second, to find the colorful auspicious clouds to get rid of the rabbit.

The two teams made an appointment to meet at Zhupanshan in Qingyuan County.

......

Let's talk about Wu and Li Xiaoxiao......

The two of them were guided by Condensation Incense to the Western Regions to find the heirloom of the Leng family. Sleeping in the open and sleeping in the open air, a long journey of nearly a month. Along the way, the sky was full of yellow sand and dust, which made the two of them disgraced and a little embarrassed.

I changed a few horses and 'tick tick', and finally arrived at the Daming border stopper. I heard from passers-by that a sandstorm was coming soon, so I found a side tavern to rest. The two chewed roasted naan and held milk wine, alleviating their hunger and thirst all the way.

During the banquet, Li Xiaoxiao proposed: "Brother Wu, ten miles to the west is the border." After drinking this pot, let's rest early, and we will cross the border tomorrow. ”

"No, we will cross the border tonight without waiting for tomorrow. Your sister-in-law is pregnant, and I am really not at ease at home. Let's rest here for a while, and when the sandstorm has passed, we'll enter the Western Regions. "Wu has a family after all, and he is worried about his wife and children, and he is like an arrow.

At this time, I heard the drinker next to me shouting at Xiao Er: "Hey, Xiao Er, let me ask you: How long do we have to go to enter the Western Regions?"

Xiao Er trembled and walked slowly: "If you go back to this guest officer, it will be ten miles west from here." If the distance is fast, it will not take half an hour to reach the territory of the Western Regions. I don't know if the two guest officers can clear the customs espionage? In the past, the guest officers who often came and went did not bring the espionage, so they could not clear the customs and missed the time. ”

Several big men looked at each other: "What do you need to clear the customs for customs clearance?

Xiao Er replied: "Oh! No, no, you can go to the side of the department to apply for customs clearance." However, it is not a coincidence, yesterday I heard that the city of Tass on the border of the Western Regions will be under martial law tomorrow. I don't know if the guest officers will be able to clear the customs smoothly. ”

The big man frowned and asked solemnly, "Martial law?"

"This ...... The little ones don't know. I've heard that something important is coming. After Xiao Er finished speaking, he was called by the shopkeeper......

Wu and Li smiled when they heard this, and glanced at each other: "Brother Wu, you have to use the customs clearance espionage, and we don't have it, what should we do?"

Wu took a sip of wine and said indifferently: "It's okay! We are not the only two of us who have not cleared the customs clearance? I'm more worried about ...... Tomorrow there will be martial law in the Western Regions City!"

"Then without further ado, let's go immediately, right? If we really can't clear the customs, then we have to come back to make up for the customs clearance, then it will be troublesome! Since martial law will be imposed in the Western Regions tomorrow, then let's find the location of the map today." lest it be affected by martial law in the Western Regions and make the plan change!"

Sub-time......

...... in the Western Regions

Wu and Li Xiaoxiao saw that the people who had seen the pass lined up in a long line. Because he didn't clear the customs and espionage, he didn't dare to get close to the soldiers of the Western Regions. The two hurriedly pulled out of the team, and with a burst of eye contact, they quietly left the team and walked back......

said that he was going back, just to prevent the soldiers of the Western Regions from being suspicious and causing unnecessary trouble. Once out of sight, the two turned around and headed east......

They took advantage of the darkness to go around to a place a mile away from the city pass, looked around without soldiers, and flew into the Western Regions with a few big jumps

Inside. After a night of searching, we finally came to the vicinity of the location indicated on the map in the early morning. From a distance, there is an earthen city in front of you.

"Second brother, there's a city ahead, let's go there tonight to rest. The map should be around here. ”

So the two of them quickened their pace. Hurriedly came to the city gate and saw that the city gate was guarded by a group of soldiers from the Western Regions.

When the soldiers saw these two outsiders hurrying in the middle of the night, they came up to stop them: "Where did you two come from?

The two of them were stunned! They thought that they had already entered the territory of the Western Regions, and they would never ask for any customs clearance documents again. Unexpectedly, he had to ask for it to enter the city, so Li Xiaoxiao asked, "Why do you still have to clear the customs papers?

The guards didn't explain much! They repeated the same sentence almost every day. The tone of his speech was already a little mechanical, and they didn't bother to answer the extra questions.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at them unreasonably, and asked again: "Can't you enter the city without clearing the customs clearance?"

"Of course, now the city is under martial law, and outsiders are prohibited from entering without customs clearance. "The guards are loyal and unaccommodating.

Li Xiaoxiao pulled Wu over, and was just about to say something, when he overheard ......

'Jingle bells!'

A camel bell made them look away......

A group of camel soldiers slowly approached. The second was a young man on a white horse, wearing steel armor, a white robe, and a spear...... Lead the two teams of Praetorian Guards slowly forward.

Next to him was a black horse on which sat an old lady. In the crowd of people entering the city, Wu Chao looked at the group of people immediately, and suddenly saw an old lady riding a black horse who seemed familiar.

Wu suddenly remembered: Isn't this old lady Wu Hanmei, the operator of Wucheng? Why did she get here? He couldn't figure it out, so he continued to observe......

The third camel cart was like a palace. Golden silk nanmu fence, brown silk bead curtain. The four pillars are inlaid with five-colored jewels, and the top frame of the gold luan falls on the column, which is very magnificent.

It was followed by a squad of infantry. At the end of the infantry was a prisoner cart. Inside the prison car was a middle-aged man, with long dirty hair and a thick beard, making it difficult to guess his age, and his tattered clothes made it impossible to know how much torture he had endured.

At this time, the general defending the city put aside the idle people and others, and publicly shouted: "Her Royal Highness the princess has arrived, open the city gate......"

So the group began to slowly enter the city......

When the rut was bumpy, the bead curtain on Jin Luan's car swayed from side to side. I came across a woman through the cracks, her face covered with translucent gauze, and her golden jewelry was particularly dazzling. The low-cut gauze skirt accentuates the woman's curves, and the bare shoulders make people think about it. can't help but remind Wu of the delicate condensation incense, in addition to the same temperament, there is also a little more nobility and coldness......

Before the two of them could take their eyes off the frame......

Suddenly, there was a scream, and a huge black eagle circled down and landed on top of the prisoner cart. The black eagle suddenly turned into a black-clad masked man and smashed the prisoner cart with one palm. If you catch a prisoner, you have to run......

Seeing this, a group of soldiers rushed up shouting: "Someone has taken prisoners!"

I saw this person palm one by one, so powerful. In a moment, lie down a piece.

At this time, the woman in the Jinluan tent rose into the air and broke out of the tent. With a shake of his hand, 'Gang Chang!' took out countless diamond bracelets from his wrist. I saw the bracelets connected in a thread......

'Smack!'

It slammed into the captor's chest, causing the man in black to let go of the prisoner and retreat a foot away. Then there was a few crisp sounds, and the bracelet was put back on the woman's wrist!

She stood on the tent of the golden luan: "Where did you come from?"
