The goshawk insisted on letting Zhao Sheng sit in front of him, took off the dirty cloak on his body, and wrapped Zhao Sheng tightly, but the temperature plummeted at night, which was not the same as the day, the cold wind hit people, and he couldn't stand it, Zhao Sheng didn't expect that this hot desert would become unbearable, and he was wearing a little thinner, and he shivered with cold at this time.

The goshawk pinched Zhao Sheng's little hand, and slowly injected the internal force into the little emperor's body along his palm, and after a while, Zhao Sheng felt warm all over his body, as if he was soaking in warm water.

He said happily: "Brother Goshawk, do you know how to spell? Why is it so hot?"

Goshawk smiled: "Your Majesty, if someone tells you that there is a spell in this world, it must be slander, don't believe it." What Weichen uses is pure yang internal force, which is warm and fiery, upright, and endless. ”

When Li Linhong heard this, he secretly thought: Brother Goshawk is proficient in pure yang internal force? Lao Tzu heard that only the internal force cultivated by the body of a boy can be called "pure yang", it seems that the goshawk brothers have not yet tasted the taste of women, but it is a pity, a pity.

Thinking like this, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zhao Sheng had naturally heard of the theory of internal force, and at this moment, he only felt that it was extremely wonderful, and he suddenly admired it in his heart, and hurriedly said: "That goshawk brother should be a famous master in the rivers and lakes?"

Li Linhong rushed up, went hand in hand with them, and shouted with a laugh: "That is, although the goshawk brothers are young, Lao Li Ke has already heard of the name of 'Kyushu Goshawk'." After that, he reached out and patted the goshawk on the shoulder, looking quite kind.

Goshawk was stunned when he heard this, and secretly thought: Kyushu Goshawk? Where did this name come from? Looking at Li Linhong's face, he found that his eyes flickered, and he blinked at himself, and suddenly realized. This old man is talking nonsense and giving himself a prestige nickname. I want to join the army since I was a child, and follow the army to the north and south, where can I have time to explore the rivers and lakes?

Zhao Sheng shouted happily: "Then Brother Goshawk's kung fu is the best in the world?"

Li Linhong said: "Brother Goshawk is a light-hearted character, how can he lower his face to compare with those three religions and nine streams on the rivers and lakes? Although his kung fu is high, he has always looked down on this fame and fortune, am I talking about, Brother Goshawk?"

The goshawk was flattered, and he was quite excited in his heart, and grabbed Li Linhong's arm and shouted: "Your Majesty, if you want to say that Brother Li's skills are only above Weichen, and by no means under Weichen." He has been in the army for 20 years, charging into battle, moving forward bravely, and taking the head of the enemy from the army, just like probing for things, and making great achievements. ”

Li Linhong laughed when he heard this, and his heart was quite useful, but he said humbly: "Awards, awards, brother, I am just more skillful and clear-headed, and I don't have the rest of my skills." ”

Li Linhong is just a veteran soldier, how can he have the ability to be an enemy of 10,000 people? But the two of them praised each other, coaxing Zhao Sheng into a smile, and the previous fear had long been thrown out of the clouds.

The two rode side by side for a while, only to see the night falling, the evening breeze whistling in their ears, like a ghost roaring, and all beasts roaring together, Zhao Sheng was a little worried, and asked: "Brother Goshawk, what is the place in Yucheng you are talking about, and how far is it?"

Goshawk gently comforted: "Your Majesty, I have heard that in this desert Gobi, there is an uninhabited canyon, and in the canyon, there is an abandoned ancient city, called Yucheng. Among them, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the prey is like clouds, even if you live in it for a lifetime, it is not difficult to be afraid. ”

Li Linhong exclaimed: "You let us go to find a deserted ancient city? Then why don't you let us go to find an oasis? Wouldn't that be looking for a needle in a haystack and wasting our efforts?"

Goshawk said: "There are countless gold and silver treasures piled up in it......" Li Linhong sighed, his brain was clouded, and he was obsessed with wealth for a while, and he suddenly kept silent.

Goshawk continued, "It was a kingdom established by a barbarian tribe in ancient times. Later, the Naiban tribe encountered a plague and all died in the valley, and Yucheng became a ghost city and disappeared without a trace. ”

When Zhao Sheng heard the word "ghost city", his face turned pale with fright, and he exclaimed: "Brother Goshawk, are you going to spend the night in the ghost city? ”

Li Linhong also asked curiously: "Brother, how do you know these strange doorways? Can you find the way to Yucheng?"

The goshawk was asked by the two of them, and his mind was dizzy, and he only felt that he was confused, and his mind was disordered, but after a while, his thoughts gradually became clearer, and he said firmly: "Wechen has been fighting in the north and south with the Great Song Dynasty army since he was a child, and he has encountered many strange people and strange things, among which there is a strange old man, who showed Weichen a map before he died, which accurately recorded the location of Yucheng. Your Majesty rest assured, you are very sure of it, and with the blessing of Your Majesty, you will be able to find the location of this Yucheng. ”

Li Linhong and Zhao Sheng are bottomless in their hearts, but looking at the goshawk's fanatical eyes, where can they dare to argue?

――――

The three of them rode for about two more teas, and the goshawk's eyes were sharp, and suddenly they saw two groups of cavalry standing in two teams under the starry sky in the distance, as if they were confronting each other and talking. He hurriedly made a gesture to guide Li Linhong to the bottom of a mound and said, "There seems to be someone there." ”

Li Linhong poked his head out from behind the mound and looked at it, feeling apprehensive in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Who are these people in the middle of the night? Are they sneakily coming to the desert to find death?"

Goshawk said: "Yucheng is close to the left, let's take advantage of their lack of attention and rush out quickly." You follow me, no matter what mess goes up behind, you must not hesitate. ”

Li Linhong was stunned and said: "Don't be reckless, it's better to wait for them to leave before it's too late......" Before the words fell, I saw the goshawk shake the reins, and galloped out in an instant, and shouted loudly by the way.

Li Linhong secretly scolded: This troublemaker! Lao Tzu will be killed by you sooner or later! In desperation, he can only urge the horse to rush out from behind the mound.

There was a commotion behind him, and it was clear that the men had seen the two knights. Then the sound of horses' hooves sounded densely, and it seemed that they did not intend to let them escape.

Zhao Sheng asked in a trembling voice: "I don't know what the origin of these people is? We didn't provoke them, why did they chase after us?"

While urging the horses, the goshawk shouted: "Look at their clothes, one group is Kazakh, and the other group is Mongolian Tatars. ”

Zhao Sheng hurriedly asked, "Mongolian Tartar?" is that...... But you're here to catch me?"

The goshawk burst out with a wild laugh and said, "If this is the case, Weichen told them to come and go, and all of them died in the desert." ”

Zhao Sheng saw that the goshawk's expression was a little wrong, and he glanced at Li Linhong like a helper, Li Linhong was helpless, he could only sigh and think: This kid has something wrong with his brain, and sooner or later he will cause a bigger mess. Alas, Your Majesty and I got on the thief ship and wanted to get out, but we were afraid that there was no hope.

The goshawk galloped wildly on his horse in a panic, and gradually approached an iron-clad mountain rock that stretched endlessly on both sides, like a screen that divided the empty desert in two.

Li Linhong said angrily: "Goshawk, you have led us to a dead end!"

The goshawk turned a deaf ear, but instead rushed towards a mountain wall, Zhao Sheng screamed, covered his eyes, and didn't dare to look again.

The horse crashed into the rock, silently, through the stone, and the mountain wall seemed to be painted out of thin air, and dissipated at the slightest touch.

Li Linhong shouted and rushed into the illusory mountain wall. When the goshawk saw that he was safe, he couldn't help but take a long breath, looked around a little, and sure enough, he saw mountains and rivers in the distance, and birds chirping, which seemed to be a paradise.

Zhao Sheng's eyes widened, his mouth stammered, and he couldn't say a word.

Li Linhong looked around and said strangely: "This ...... This ......"

Zhao Sheng clenched the sleeves of the goshawk with his small hands, and laughed while crying: "Brother goshawk, do you really know how to spell?"

Goshawk laughed, "That mountain wall is just an illusion of a mirage, but the barbarian king accidentally discovered that among the mountain walls that winds for dozens of miles, there is only one wonderful entrance, leading to this magnificent canyon, so he built a magnificent city here." ”

Zhao Sheng jumped off the horse and took a deep breath of air, only to feel that the wind here seemed to be very different from the desert, full of the fragrance of flowers.

Li Linhong came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, there are still chasing soldiers behind you, let's quickly find a place to hide." If we come in, others will naturally come in......"

Halfway through his words, there was a scream behind him, and a knight staggered in, Li Linhong couldn't dodge, and was knocked off his horse by the man. The knight's horse lost its balance and threw him off his horse, but the man moved like a swift in the air and landed firmly on the ground.

Immediately after standing firm, he let out several shouts, speaking in Kazakh. After a while, eight or nine more horses followed.

The goshawk pulled up Li Linhong, raised the empty scabbard, blocked in front of Zhao Sheng, and glared at these Kazakhs with fierce eyes.

The Kazakh, who had achieved great success, walked up, removed his veil, and showed an elegant and handsome face, he looked at Zhao Sheng and the others carefully, bent down and saluted, and asked in Chinese: "Are you Han?"

The goshawk listened to his delicate voice, and looked at the man's face, which seemed to be very old, and had a mustache on his mouth, which was crooked like a Kazakh, but this man was undoubtedly Han. The goshawk immediately understood that this beard was fake, and this person was a woman disguised as a man.

However, he made up his makeup quite cleverly, and I wonder if his companions knew about it.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Linhong secretly thought: They don't seem to be in the same group as those Tartars, maybe there are still some festivals, and it is better to have more things than less at the moment, so it is better to climb and make friends with them.

stopped the goshawk at the moment, smiled all over his face, and said, "This little brother is right, the three of us are all Han." ”

The man nodded and said with a smile: "My name is Li Shuxiu, and I am also Han. These are my friends, so let's all take the blades. Then he said a few words in Kazakh to his companions, and those people respected Li Shuxiu quite respectfully, and did what he said without hesitation.

Goshawk heard that Li Shuxiu's Chinese was quite unfamiliar, it seemed that she had lived outside the country for a long time and had almost forgotten Chinese, but compared to this, her Kazakh language was perfect.

Li Linhong was still close, he affectionately hugged Li Shuxiu's shoulder and said: "This little brother, both of us are surnamed Li, maybe they were a family a hundred years ago." Haha, I can't imagine that my Lao Li can still meet his relatives in this desert. ”

Li Shuxiu's face was embarrassed, and with a slight force, he took out Li Linhong's arm, returned to his companions, and discussed gently.
