Chapter 64: Returning to Grandfather
On the surface, the Sword Casting Workshop is still relatively amicable with the City Lord's Mansion, and the Sword Casting Workshop has been steadily building weapons and armor for the garrison of Kestrel City, and Ziche Yunfei has also been under house arrest. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIn order to avoid unnecessary trouble, although it was a short departure, a group of four people still disguised.
A caravan that crossed Kestrel City to sell salt and cloth was a bit too large, but it was not easy to attract the attention of the border guards because it was a temporary patchwork. The people who rushed to kill the Storm Thunder Rudder were naturally in charge of the escort of this temporary caravan, and the four people of Asule, Yi Qingzhuo, Liyuan and Lijingjing were accompanied by them in the guise of a dart master.
Out of the north gate of Kestrel City, all the way north, there was no lack of singing and laughter in the caravan. At this time, the sky is high and the clouds are wide, the green is endless, no matter who it is, the heart is broad-minded, and the mood is natural and refreshing.
Azul's mood was different. Four years ago, with the intention of figuring out his life experience, he left the grassland with confidence and went to Gongcheng, and the nearly three-year apprenticeship was still quite good, and he came into contact with many unknown things for the first time, especially in this year in Kestrel City, he seemed to have touched the edge of his life experience. I am about to turn sixteen years old, and I am on my way home again, although it is a little sneaky, but my feelings are really complicated.
Yi Qingzhuo has been in Kestrel City for almost half a year, but he has been separated from Azule for a long time, after all, he still has to learn martial arts and skills from Xiao Shi and Uncle Tianyuan. In Qing Zhuo's eyes, Azule is the most affectionate and righteous person, Li Jingjing's ill intentions and some small means have no effect at all, which makes Qing Zhuo overjoyed, and every time he is with Li Jingjing, he will feel that he has won by three points. Next, heading to the grassland, Qing Zhuo felt that the two would only spend more and more time together, so they were both yearning and happy along the way.
Far away is still a little worried about his mother and the Sword Forge Workshop, unless he leaves Kestrel City completely, he can't change the fact that his mother is under house arrest, and the two or three hundred people in the Sword Forge Workshop are also his biggest burden. Maybe continue to improve his realm, or with the help of the strength of the Heavenly Machine Alliance, his situation may change one day.
In comparison, Lijingjing is the pistachio of four people, or even the entire caravan. Lijingjing has basically never left Kestrel City, even if it is separated by a wall, the attraction of the Northern Barbarian Grassland to her is very great. It is the first time to see such a vast sky, such a magnificent scene, there is no obstruction and obstruction, you can do whatever you want, you can ride a horse and gallop at will, you can talk, laugh, eat and drink, everything is so casual and casual. The caravan's dart masters, buddies and shopkeepers were very fond of the cheerful and enthusiastic Lijingjing, and everyone even called her the happy prairie lark. Lijingjing is also laughing and singing all the way, for a while this dart master chats about the grassland experience, and for a while listens to the shopkeepers talk about the hardships of doing business and the excitement of making money.
The group walked and stopped, until about 20 days into the grassland, and then they were about to arrive at the place where the thunder rudder and the war horse rudder escorted the handover. Azule and Liyuan received a message from the entourage in advance that at the place of the routine handover, another person would guide the four of them deep into the grassland until their destination. The shopkeepers of the caravan passed the news that they were about to arrive at the junction site, and the main purpose was to form an alliance with each other, and after a short rest at the junction point, they would divide into several small caravans and go to different places.
Among the four, Yi Qingzhuo was relatively more looking forward to it, after all, his father Yi Tianxing was the deputy hall master of the Trapping Hall, and the war horse helm in charge of the handover was the person under his father, and it was even possible that the person who handed over was still familiar with him.
At noon on this day, more than 100 people in the caravan walked on the grassland. I saw a few simple adobe wooden houses standing not far away, and compared with the mobility of the felt bags, several wooden houses obviously do not move all year round, so they are particularly conspicuous. A flag fluttered in the wind on the roof of one of the wooden houses, and a white horse leaped over it. Twenty or thirty horses were tied to the outside of the wooden house, and three or three strong dart masters walked in the middle. When they saw the caravan coming, three people came out of the hut, looked at this side together, turned over and came on horseback.
The person in charge of the thunderstorm helm invited Azule and the others to come out of the crowd and rode towards the three people who came over.
When both sides approached, they both dismounted familiarly.
Azule found that the person who took the lead on the other side was actually his old friend, and it was also Zhao Chengping who helped him get out of the tribe.
After the person in charge of the thunder helm and Zhao Chengping greeted each other, they went to find each other to hand over.
Zhao Chengping bowed his hand, laughed and said to the four: "Miss, Brother Azule, the other two, everyone has worked hard, welcome and welcome." ”
Yi Qingzhuo replied: "Senior Brother Zhao, you are already your father's disciple, don't be so polite, we can be commensurate with each other." ”
Azule pounced on Zhao Chengping without waiting for the two sides to finish, and after a tight hug, he said, "Brother Chengping, we meet again." ”
"Brother Asoule, after four years of separation, my brother also misses me very much. Zhao Chengping smiled sincerely.
"This is my sworn brother, called Liyuan, and this is Liyuan's sister, called Lijingjing. Big brother, Jingjing, this is Zhao Chengping's eldest brother who is kind to me. Azule pulled the two sides to introduce each other.
The two sides were going to go together, and they were very enthusiastic with each other, and they were both young people, and they quickly got along.
According to Zhao Chengping's arrangement, in order to avoid revealing their whereabouts, the new group of seven people did not rest at the handover point, but set off immediately. According to the prior agreement, Zhao Chengping will take Azule and the others to Azule's grandfather's tribe first, and then go to the secret guard training camp after visiting his grandfather.
The deeper he went into the grassland, the more his mood fluctuated. I went back to visit my grandfather two years ago, and a faint worry was turning into the joy of meeting soon. From Zhao Chengping's mouth, it was learned that in order to avoid the trouble of the engineer's grandfather, the trap hall has been paying attention to the movements of the tribe, which also reassures Azule, who was apprehensive at first.
This journey will take more than ten days, Zhao Chengping and Azule take turns to introduce some customs and bodyguards and darts anecdotes, and the young people are a lot brisker along the way.
When the group reached a short distance from the tribe, they were stopped by a small group of men and asked where they had come from.
Azul's heart tightened, and he saw that the other party was well-equipped and well-equipped, obviously dressed as a regular army.
Zhao Chengping was relatively serious about Lao Cheng, and came out of the crowd and said: "Soldiers, our caravan is going to the Khalkha tribe for a large transaction, we are in the front station, and people are following one after another, and the relevant procedures for the transaction have been reported to the warehouse official." ”
A leader on the other side rode over to check it, and saw that there was nothing abnormal, but he carefully checked several people one by one, and then let them go.
Zhao Chengping gave a color to the group and led everyone to deviate from the direction of the Alitra tribe and head towards the Khalkha tribe.
Azule's thoughts were surging, fortunately everyone had disguised themselves beforehand, but it was obvious that the other party was coming for him.
