Chapter 1: Bandits
Sheep belly hand yo three blue
It's easy for us to see everything
Oh, it's hard to talk
......
I can't see the village
I couldn't see the man
I threw my tears and balls on
Oops Artemisia forest
......
The afterglow of the setting sun illuminates the Wuding River in a dazzling light, and the desert in the distance and the grassland in the near distance have been living in harmony. Old Man Lei stood on the white city rule, one hand on the sheep shovel, and the other hand waved towards the sheep in the distance.
"Grandpa, stop singing, I don't want to come here every day to herd sheep!"
Lei Dingxi picked up a stone from Baicheng Ze and threw it down.
"Fart, you don't herd sheep, what will you take to hoop the cave, what will you give you a wife? Go down and drive the sheep, let's go home!"
Old Man Lei took the trouble to tell the story of the distant desert eagle, while Dingxi sat by the horse-faced wall, watching the sunset in the distance and fell into deep thought.
Dingxi was too curious about Helian City, and although he came here every day, he never really knew it. So, taking advantage of the night, he rode the only donkey in the family and ran to Helian City.
Under the moonlight, the White City is really snow-white, and the tall snow-white city is in stark contrast to the surrounding golden desert.
Dingxi climbed onto the horse and slid down the slope of the urn city.
"Is this urn city the place where the Xiongnu Shan Yu used to catch the enemy?
He raised his head and pondered, what was such a deep urn city for. At this time, the moon was directly above the urn city, illuminating his face white, and blending with the white city, without distinguishing from each other.
Suddenly, the feet began to shake, and a white bone emerged from the sand. The white bones flashed with white light, and Dingxi's eyes couldn't be opened.
He heard the donkey above start yelling, and he didn't know what was going on outside, so he wanted to climb up from the urn city to take a look. But when he tried to climb up, he found that the slope had become steeper, and it became a ninety-degree high wall.
Outside, the donkey's neighing was getting louder and louder, and the walls of Weng City seemed to be rising.
Dingxi began to be frightened, and he watched with panicked eyes as sand and soil kept falling from the top of the urn city.
"What's going on, what's going on?"
He crawled upwards and wailed weakly.
At this moment, the entire city of Helian began to shake, and cracks began to appear at the junction of the city and the desert, and a large amount of quicksand twitched down from the gaps.
Dingxi clung to the crumbling city wall, and he screamed in fear.
"Help, help......"
But his voice was not heard from the outside, and the quicksand was surging faster and louder downward. Finally, with a loud bang, Helian City plunged into the depths of the desert.
After a sharp tremble, Bai Cheng suddenly stopped moving, and the quicksand also stopped. Just when he thought he was safe now, suddenly he saw a beam of light coming down from above his head, his eyes widened and his whole body trembled, and this light was impartial and just got into his body. His body tensed for a moment, then he closed his eyes and didn't wake up.
......
Dingxi slowly opened his eyes, he only felt a pain all over his body, and he was lying on the ground weakly.
He moved his arms and legs, sat up and looked around. He sat on a red stone mountain, surrounded by clear water.
"W-where is this?"
The red stones stretched out layer by layer, wave by wave, and a huge red wave appeared in front of Dingxi's eyes. Beneath the red stone is the turquoise water, which is very quiet, which gives the wave-like red stone a rhythm.
He looked at the red stone in front of him, and at this moment, someone ran towards him, don't run and shout: "The second master, the second master......"
He looked back and saw that it was a man wearing a handkerchief with a sheep's belly, wasn't this a bandit? Then he looked at the red stone in front of him, and his clothes, and his body......
"Could it be, did I cross over?"
The sheep's belly handkerchief came over and pulled him up, looking at the wave valley in the distance, as if he was very happy.
"You, you are?"
"The second master, I'm Ma Liu, you don't know me anymore?"
He stared blankly at him.
"Ma Liu!"
He touched his head, but he couldn't remember who this horse horse was?
"Second master, why are you sleeping here? Beware of catching a cold!"
......
Dingxi lay in bed tossing and turning, he had experienced too much this day. At this moment, he has become the second master, and when Ma Liu told him that he would have action tomorrow morning, he only hastily coped with a few words.
What does this matter to him, he is not a broken second-class master, who is rare to give to whom, he doesn't want it.
Before dawn the next day, the big boss took his brothers to ambush Huyakou.
Huyakou is the natural danger of Helian City, and you must pass through here to get out of the capital. And Lan's military salary also entered the city from here, so they ambushed here and could ambush Lan in a condescending manner.
However, this time it was not Lan Dage himself who escorted the military salary, but his proudest son Lan Xiaoge.
It was midday, and the sun was scorching the earth and tormenting every brother.
Dingxi has been lying under the scorching sun for several hours, and if the Lan family's military salary does not come again, he will be dried into dried fish.
"Ma Liu, when is Lan Xiaoge coming?"
Dingxi's lips were chapped and peeling, and he couldn't speak well. He thought that if he was exposed to the sun for a little longer, he would really die.
Ma Lu didn't speak, he still lay motionless in the col, and his eyes looked down steadfastly, if he didn't look carefully, he really thought it was a statue.
"Ma Liu, why did you say that Lan Dage named his son Lan Xiaoge?
Dingxi was tired, turned to face the blue sky, and saw that the sky was blue and blue, and he couldn't see even a trace of clouds, he knew that today must be a good day.
"Hurry up, they're coming soon!" Ma Lu said suddenly.
"Who's coming?" Dingxi asked lazily.
Lan Xiaoge escorted the paid army. ”
"What?"
Dingxi immediately turned around and continued to lie down, looking at the movement below, but after watching for a long time, he didn't find anything.
"Isn't there anything down there?"
Dingxi didn't see anything anyway, but Ma Liu said that they were coming soon, wasn't this playing with him?
"That's not wrong, they're coming, getting closer and closer, you listen, it's only a kilometer, a kilometer!"
Before Dingxi could complain suspiciously, Ma Liu ran behind the big boss and didn't know what to say, only to see the big boss smile with satisfaction.
"Brothers, it's up to you to make or break it, everyone is ready! Let's take these boxes of military pay!" said the big boss, looking at the brothers.
After speaking, he continued to lean down and wait for Lan Xiaoge and his party to fall into the trap they had arranged.
Dingxi was just about to joke with Ma Liu, but unexpectedly heard the sound of thousands of horses galloping not far away. He thought it was an earthquake, but seeing that everyone was so calm, he had to lie on his stomach without moving.
After a while, a convoy of guards appeared below. Walking in front, the heroic one is Lan Xiaoge, the son of Lan Dage.
It was followed by four officers, followed by three carriages, on which were boxes of military pay. And the carriage was followed by forty or fifty soldiers, all on horseback, and it seemed that these salaries were very important, otherwise they would not have used so many military horse soldiers.
The loess kicked up by the horse's hooves buried the horse's hooves, and the only sound of the horse's grinning was in the quiet tiger's mouth.
When they reached the mouth of the tiger's mouth, they became extremely cautious, and even the horses began to become cautious. Everyone knows the importance and danger of Huyakou, so no one dares to take it lightly.
They were all cautiously looking up the hill, and if anything was wrong, they could quickly turn around and run back.
"Everyone be careful, this is the haunt of the ringing horses, and the ringing horses here are notoriously fierce and ferocious in the northwest region, so everyone should be extra careful!"
Lan Xiaoge rode a tall horse, wore a military hat, and wore military uniforms and military boots, as if he had become the next Lan Dage.
It's just that he looks a little greener, and he is a little softer than Lan Dage.
At this moment, the horse of one of the officers behind jumped up and neighed, and in an instant all the horses jumped up and began to roar in horror.
Suddenly, the escort team was in chaos, and the loess under their feet also flew up, and it looked like a big war was coming.
In an instant, the guards were in a group, and the big boss who was lying on it saw that the time had come, so he stood up and drew his sword and shouted: "Brothers, rush!"
"Childe, there is, there is an ambush!" said the officer in the back to Lan Xiaoge in front.
"Haven't you yet entered the tiger teeth? What are you afraid of?"
Lan Xiaoge raised his head and looked up, and suddenly his eyes collided with Dingxi's eyes. They stared at each other for three seconds, and for three seconds, they heard no other sound. Three seconds later, Lan Xiaoge pulled out his knife and shouted, "Brothers, kill, kill not a piece of armor!"
With Lan Xiaoge's order, the army immediately began to turn around, but the way was quickly outflanked, and the mouth of the tiger in front of the road was also blocked. All of a sudden, Lan Xiaoge's escort team became a turtle in an urn.
"Ma Liu, this is Lan Xiaoge?"
Dingxi had been staring at him from the first time he saw him.
"Yes, he is Lan Xiaoge. He is said to be even more vicious than his father!" Ma said.
"I think this Lan Xiaoge is very interesting, if he is a woman, he must be a beauty!"
What does Dingxi think, Lan Xiaoge on that horse is a girl. But these people are blind, how can they say that he is a man?
"Second master, how can you treat him as a woman? Have you ever heard of the Jade Mask Overlord? Don't be fooled by his appearance!"
Ma Liu's words attracted his attention to this Lan Xiaoge even more, and he wanted to know what kind of person he was to make people so afraid.
Hao Tianqi, the big boss and the chief manager, walked to the front one after the other, and Dingxi also mustered up the courage to walk behind Hao Tianqi, pulling his clothes and looking at the front nervously. Although he didn't have much communication with the chief manager, he always felt that this chief manager was different from others, he didn't have a bandit spirit, and he was very kind when he talked to him, which made him feel like he wanted to get close.
"Lan Xiaoge, what do you mean, why did Lan Dage's shrunken turtle send a hairy boy with a stinking milk?"
After speaking, the big boss raised the big knife in his hand and shouted loudly, and the brothers behind him also whistled and laughed loudly.
Lan Xiaoge, who was riding on the horse, looked very calm and calm, not only was he not angry, but he also laughed together.
Some of the big bosses don't understand, he is dying, what are you laughing at.
"What are you laughing at?"
The big boss asked suspiciously.
Lan Xiaoge's eyes looked at Hao Tianqi who was standing behind the big boss, Hao Tianqi lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sorry, big boss!"
When the big boss heard Tianqi's voice, he looked surprised. He turned his head slowly, looking at him in despair.
"What did you say?" his choked voice almost left him speechless.
"I'm sorry, big boss!" Tianqi took out the gun on his waist and put it against the back of the big boss.
"Tianqi, what are you doing here, that's the big boss!" Ma Lu ran over and asked wailingly.
"Don't come here, don't come here, I'll shoot if I come here again!" Tianqi's eyes began to flow tears, he had been in Wave Valley for so long, and the brothers in the cottage had always treated him well.
"Tianqi, why, what is it?" asked the big boss weakly.
"Because my father died by the sword of the ringing horse!"
As soon as Tianqi finished speaking, Lan Xiaoge shouted at him: "Kill him, Tianqi kill him, kill him, you will be the second-in-command of Helian City when you go back! Kill him, kill him!"
