The previous document said that Zhanyuan was rescued by Mahmud, and when the two met and talked, it was like acquaintance at first sight! Don't look at Mahmud as an Arab, but he is very knowledgeable, not only proficient in many languages, but also familiar with geography and history.

Speaking of Zhanyuan, he is different from ordinary Han people in this era, he is a modern person in his bones after all. I grew up in the Central Plains before, and I was used to the way of life of the ancients, and a lot of modern knowledge was not needed. However, seeing Mahmud this time made Zhanyuan suddenly enlightened, and he talked to him about some things he learned in books and TV in his previous life, from geographical knowledge to natural science, and then to historical philosophy. Many of Mahmud's Western philosophical ideas can be accepted by Zhanyuan.

Although Zhanyuan's history is rotten, at least many of the things he watches on TV are quite bluffing, especially the geographical concept of modern people, which made Mahmud breathtaking, and once thought that Zhanyuan was a geographer in the East. When Zhan Yuan tried to speak a few words of broken English, Mahmud's jaw almost dropped. Although he did not know English, he had a few friends who had studied Latin, although England was still a small kingdom founded by the son of Charlemagne, and it was not ranked among the best in the world.

Zhan Yuan just stayed in Mahmud's house, Mahmud was proficient in medical skills, and he was still a Western doctor, and he had been treating Zhan Yuan's injuries. I was very curious about Zhanyuan's body recovering so quickly, and I kept asking Zhanyuan why. But Zhan Yuan can't explain it, because what meridians and internal strength can't be explained by modern Chinese and Western medicine, let alone the Arabs back then.

Zhan Yuan stayed here for three months. On this day, after Mahmud looked at Zhanyuan's injury again, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Brother Zhan, your injuries have all healed, it's really surprising." Your body's ability to recover is so strong. In the past three months, Mahmud has been chatting with Zhanyuan almost every day, and his Chinese has improved a lot.

Zhan Yuan smiled and said to Mahmud: "That's thanks to Brother Ma, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago." Mahmud's name was a mouthful to pronounce, so later Zhan Yuan proposed to call him Brother Ma, and after some explanation, Mahmud readily agreed.

"It's a gesture, Allah makes us take care of others, because everyone is Allah's child" Mahmud recited the Quran in Chinese for Zhan Yuan whenever he had the opportunity, and recently even planned to ask Zhan Yuan to help him translate a Chinese Qur'an.

After all, Zhanyuan is a modern person, and he is not interested in religious beliefs, so he just smiled, and then changed the topic and asked, "Brother Ma, why do you have such a good impression of us Han people?"

Mahmud smiled: "This has to start from the beginning, because before you and Lao Zhong (the old Han man who took care of Zhanyuan), I also met a Han man, and that time I met him, but it was really exciting." ”

"Oh?" Zhan Yuan heard that he was interested, sat up and asked, "Since that's the case, I would like to hear about it." ”

Mahmud smiled and nodded, reached out to bring the teacup and grapes from the small table, made a gesture of telling a story, and then said slowly: "It was when I was twenty years old, and my father had an accident. He was originally a close minister of the caliph, but he was framed as a rebel by the people of the Baiyi family, and the whole Baghdad arrested my whole family, and we had no choice but to flee with my family. On the way to escape, I was caught up by the army of the Bai Yi family, and my family and I were separated, and I was slashed in the rush to escape, and I was about to be caught by the army and die under the knife! Suddenly, a person flew out from somewhere nearby, thanking Allah for his blessing. That person was simply like a god, the army from the royal city could not stop him at all, and his strength was as high as the god general from Allah from heaven, and he defeated the army of dozens of people in a few seconds. ”

Zhan Yuan was slightly surprised when he heard this, and heard Mahmud say, this person should think that he was a martial arts master, but how could such a master appear in Arabia? Zhan Yuan said with questions: "Then what happened later? Did he tell you who he was?"

Mahmud was not angry at Zhan Yuan's interruption, but continued: "Of course, after he rescued me, he found that I had a serious knife wound and took me to a wooden house by the beach. It should be not far from Basra, and the nearby beaches are salt flats. He took me to the wooden house, which had an older man in it. Only then did I realize that the two of them were dressed in clothes and the shape of the wooden house were completely different from ours, and now that I think about it, they should all be your Han people's things. ”

Mahmud said as if he was thirsty, took a large sip from his glass of water, and then continued: "They helped me stop the bleeding and then bandaged my wounds. They sprinkled some medicine on my wound, I don't know what it was, but it worked so well that our wound was scarred the next day, and it was completely healed within a few days. I stayed with them for another three days before leaving. ”

"Do those two speak Chinese?" asked Zhan Yuan.

"No, they should have been coming to us for a long time, and they all speak Turkic fluently. Mahmoud continued: "During my three days with them, I saw a lot of different things. For example, your Han people's writing and paintings, which are completely different from those in the West, and I can't imagine how they use them for things called brushes. ”

Mahmud said, suddenly stood up, and said to Zhanyuan: "Wait a minute, when I left, the person who rescued me gave me a painting that said that it was a tradition of the Han people, and that it was his hometown. I still can't understand it, I asked Lao Zhong, but unfortunately he can only speak, not read. You should know, help me translate!" With that, Mahmud ran out.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, Mahmud retrieved a scroll, wrapped in a cloth on the outside. Mahmud carefully unfolded the outer cloth, revealing the paper inside. Zhan Yuan knew that it was rice paper at a glance, and hurriedly went up to help unfold the words together and spread them on the table.

This is a large volume, although the paper is not well preserved, has been yellowed, but the words on the door are still very clear, this font iron painting silver hook is vigorous and powerful, written is-

Haike talks about Yingzhou, and it is difficult to find a letter in the smoke and waves. The rivers and lakes say that crystals, and the clouds may be visible. Thousands of rocks are uncertain, and the flowers leaning on the stones have suddenly been twilight. The bear roared and the dragon sang Yin Yanquan, and the chestnut deep forest was terrifying. The clouds are green and green, and the water is surging and smoking. There is a lack of thunderbolts, and the hills are destroyed. The stone door of the cave is suddenly opened. The blue and dark are bottomless, and the sun and moon shine on the gold and silver platform. Ni is the clothes and the wind is the horse, and the kings of the clouds come down one after another.

These lines are incomplete Li Bai's "Sleepwalking in the Sky and Leaving Farewell", but the second sentence has been changed to what rivers and lakes say crystal.

When Zhan Yuan saw the word crystal, his eyelids jumped, and he couldn't help but think of his mentor from the Crystal Palace. Immediately after looking down, I saw that the inscription below was written - Jiang Zuobin, a disciple of Xiao Penglai in the East China Sea.

Zhan Yuan couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw Jiang Zuobin's three words, this person must not be able to remember the reader. In the book, it is said that this Jiang Zuobin is the fourth of the eight great disciples of the Crystal Palace in the past, and he was nicknamed "Qiankun Mo Lane"! When Bi Yuexiao committed the crime of human ethics, Lin Tiande and others were mainly killed, and Xiao Jinshan, the third "Eight Treasures and Yunguang", wanted to be protected. In the end, Xiao Jinshan died, and Bi Yuexiao ran away. After that, Jiang Zuobin planned to get rid of Lin Tiande, but the result only ruined Lin Tiande's future of inheriting the position of head, and still failed to bring him down. Jiang Zuobin was disheartened, so he left the Crystal Palace and has not been heard from since.

Zhanyuan naturally heard Mu Zhongping say these things, and he also knew that his uncle, he never thought that he would run so far and reach the Middle East.

Mahmud had already unfolded the words, and found that Zhan Yuan's expression was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhan, what's wrong with you?"

Zhan Yuan sorted out his excitement, turned back to Mahmud and said, "Brother Ma, you would never have thought that the person who wrote is my uncle!"

Mahmud still didn't understand what Uncle Shi meant, so Zhanyuan hurriedly explained. He understood this, and shouted very excitedly: "Allah, this world is too small!"

Zhanyuan was also very happy, and hurriedly asked Mahmud: "Brother Ma, do you know where they live, can you take me there?"

Mahmud was originally very happy, but when he heard Zhanyuan's words, he left with a sad face, and said with a frown: "This ...... This...... Alas!" He sighed helplessly and said, "It's not that I don't help, it's just that I'm still a wanted criminal in the kingdom, and if I want to go, it's too risky......"

Zhan Yuan was also a little embarrassed when he saw Mahmud embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "That's it, Brother Ma will help me prepare the map, and I can find it myself......"

When Mahmud saw it, he first frowned, and then smiled: "Brother Zhan, you are one of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met, and you have also helped me broaden my horizons. Now that we're friends, how can I not help! But you'll have to wait a few days, and we'll have a legitimate opportunity to go to Basra together. ”

When Zhan Yuan heard this, he asked confusedly, "Brother Ma, what chance can you go back as a wanted criminal?"

Mahmud laughed: "Brother Zhan, don't ask." You have to recover well in the next few days, we still have a long way to go to Basra, and I am afraid that we will have to walk for three or four months. ”

Zhan Yuan didn't know where he was, and naturally he didn't know how far he was from Basra. So I can only listen to Mahmud.

In a blink of an eye, Zhan Yuan stayed in Tel for another month, and during this month, Zhan Yuan's body basically recovered, and his daily fixed meditation and training also resumed. His practice stunned Mahmud, who thought that Zhanyuan was just a Han scholar, but he didn't expect to have such a high ability!

On this day, Mahmud saw that Zhan Yuan had finished practicing, and walked up to him and said, "Brother Zhan, you prepare today, and tomorrow you will go to a place with me, and then we will go to Basra!"

Predict the future, and watch the next time!
