Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao rested for a morning, and then drove the carriage south. The population in Tibet is not as dense as the Central Plains, if you go off the road, it is likely that you will not meet a market town for hundreds of miles, but fortunately before setting off at noon, Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao prepared enough water and dry food.

The number of yaks and antelopes along the way was significantly more than that of the Tibetans, and sometimes, for an hour or two, there was no figure to be seen, but the weather was not bad, and there was no rain or snow on this day.

However, until dusk, Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao did not find a place to stay, and the two had to continue to move forward, and the night wind on the plateau blew the carriage curtain constantly swinging, like a small boat being beaten by the waves in the ocean.

When they arrived, Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao were still galloping in the field, Tang Qingmei said: "Linhao, why don't we find a place to tie the carriage and sleep in the carriage tonight." Yang Linhao drove the carriage to a pine tree and said, "Aunt Tang, just tie the carriage to this pine tree." Tang Qingmei said with a smile: "Fortunately, the terrain here is not high, and there are pine trees, otherwise we wouldn't even be able to find a place to tie horses." ”

The cold wind was howling outside the window, Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao were lying in the car wearing a coat, although the conditions were more difficult, but the two of them ran for several hours in a row, and they were also tired, so after a little chat, Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao fell asleep.

After a long time, Tang Qingmei was awakened by the howl coming from not far away. Tang Qingmei immediately patted Yang Linhao and said, "Linhao, hurry up." Yang Linhao immediately sat up vigilantly and said, "This voice ......" Tang Qingmei opened the curtain and looked out, only to see a group of wolves more than ten feet away!

Yang Linhao was also frightened, and said, "Aunt Tang, what should I do now?" Tang Qingmei said: "Beasts are not humans, if they are provoked, they will only fight with us to the death, and they will not give in." Yang Linhao looked out the window again, estimating in his heart that there were about twenty or thirty wolves in this group.

Tang Qingmei said: "Even if we escape in a carriage, we can't outrun the wolves in this hilly area, not to mention, our carriage is still tied to a tree." Yang Linhao said: "Aunt Tang, if we fight with these twenty or thirty wolves, I am afraid that there will be no bones." Tang Qingmei said: "Of course, even if I am with your mother, I am not their opponent, unless it is the Shangqing Daoist and Ling Yan Zhenren join forces, otherwise, no one can defeat this large group of fierce beasts." ”

Yang Linhao said: "You can't run and you can't run, you can't beat it, it's better to make a risky move." Tang Qingmei said: "Linhao, what are your ideas?" Yang Linhao said: "Aunt Tang, let's get out of the carriage first, you sit on the roof of the car and play the piano, and pour all your internal strength into the sound of the piano." I sat on horseback and sang, singing with all my strength. ”

Tang Qingmei hesitated for a moment, and said: "There is no other way, listen to you, let's gamble!" Tang Qingmei held the falling jade qin, turned around and flew to the roof of the car, sat down cross-legged, and began to play. Yang Linhao held the Qinxue sword, sat on horseback, and sang loudly: "Looking at the peaks, the white clouds are accompanied by green pines, and the swallows are still foggy." Looking at the east of the river, the cooking smoke is accompanied by the breeze, and the hoe field pulp clothes are full of affection. Looking at the pot, the turbid wine reflects the clear sky, and the chaos of the world dissolves. Looking at the sky, the lake reflects the sky, where can the Ming Dynasty ask the east wind ......"

I only heard Tang Qingmei's piano and Yang Linhao's singing all over the mountains, which shook the wolves and howled. However, although this group of wolves did not attack, they did not retreat, and Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao did not dare to stop, so they had to continue to play the piano and sing.

After a stalemate for half an hour, Tang Qingmei didn't know what to do next. At this time, Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao heard another howl, and Yang Linhao exclaimed: "Won't there be another group?" Tang Qingmei said: "Leave it to fate." ”

After a while, Tang Qingmei saw a Tibetan riding a tall horse and leading a large group of Tibetan mastiffs to gallop over. Yang Linhao said: "Is this the little lion?" Tang Qingmei smiled and said: "This is the Tibetan mastiff, we are saved, go, let's kill it." ”

Tang Qingmei flew in the sky and used the cold trick against the wolves. Yang Linhao galloped to the ground, and together with fifty or sixty Tibetan mastiffs, attacked the wolves. This group of wolves was already shocked by Tang Qingmei's internal force and was full of fear, and when they saw the Tibetan mastiff twice their size, they immediately turned around and fled. The Tibetan commanded the Tibetan mastiff to chase after him for a while, and then returned to Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao with the Tibetan mastiff.

The Tibetan spoke in a non-standard tone in the Central Plains: "My name is Deji, you can go home with me." Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao couldn't help but look at each other, Tang Qingmei saluted and said, "Brother Deji, thank you for saving us." Deji smiled: "Let's go, let's go home." ”

Yang Linhao untied the carriage, carried Tang Qingmei, and followed Deji back to his home. Deji said: "You sit down first, and I'll go get some food." Although Tang Qingmei and Yang Linhao escaped, the two of them were still in shock at the moment.

After a while, Deji came over with a pot of butter tea and a plate of barley cakes, and said, "Eat, you're welcome." Yang Linhao smiled: "Thank you." Tang Qingmei said: "Brother Deji, you can speak the Central Plains, have you been to the Song Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom before?"

Deji sat down and said, "I've been there a few times, but the people of the Song Kingdom avoided me when they saw me." Yang Linhao said: "That's not right, although you Tubo people are quite different from us in terms of dress and dress, most of you are good people." I like you guys a lot. ”

Deji said: "The little boy is really good at talking. Yang Linhao smiled: "What I said is true. Tang Qingmei said: "Brother Deji, why are you there?" Deji said: "There are many wolves here, and the herdsmen near us have gathered the Tibetan mastiffs at home, and everyone takes turns to lead this group of Tibetan mastiffs to prevent them from attacking our cattle and sheep." ”

Tang Qingmei said: "You guessed from our singing and piano that we were in danger?" Deji said: "Yes." The Tibetan mastiffs are all here with me today. I just felt that something was wrong, how could there be anyone singing and playing the piano in the mountains in the middle of the night, and when I heard that we were not Tibetans, I took the Tibetan mastiffs to take a look. ”

Tang Qingmei sighed and said, "Recently, I have been in danger, and I have met my benefactor. Deji said: "Where are you going? Luo Some City, Pibo City, or ?" Tang Qingmei said: "Go to the foot of Nanga Bhava Peak and find a girl who has mastered the method of catching cold crystal worms." ”

Deji said, "I haven't heard of this before. However, the Tibetan basin does have a lot of peculiar insects and grasses. Tang Qingmei said: "There is still a lot of distance from here to Nanga Bhava Peak, right?" Deji said: "It's still far away." You have to climb over the rocky mountains first, and then pass through Luotang and Qiongbu to reach Nanga Bhava Peak. ”

Tang Qingmei said with a smile: "The road is long. (To be continued.) )
