Chapter Eighty-Five: The Belém Tribe
Gu Lisha saw Xiao Ruoshui's behavior, words and deeds, she immediately stopped talking, she was a little sullen in the next two days, Xiao Ruoshui was so anxious that he didn't notice her unpleasantness, he wanted to reach the Belen tribe as soon as possible and find the pivotal part of the Celestial Star Compass. Gu Lisha is a smart girl, she doesn't seem to have too many complaints and unhappiness in front of Xiao Ruoshui, but she is often alone in a daze when she is behind her back.
The reading of Xing'an Mountains ended in two days, they had already stepped into the territory of the Belen tribe, and another three days to the north was the gathering place of the Belen tribe, where their city was located, Xiao Ruoshui couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly there, he galloped rapidly, thinking along the way, thinking about all the information in his mind, he was carefully combing through the information, in order to find a way to quickly find the celestial star compass.
In the three days, Xiao Ruoshui basically spent time in the process of riding a horse and galloping, only at night did he take a little rest, and when he rested, he also slept at the end of the day, and when he slept until dawn, he was too tired to do anything else, and sleeping was the only way to solve it.
At noon on the third day, they arrived at the city of the Belen tribe, which was more majestic than that of the Hulun tribe, the walls were made of stone, and the moat was much wider, and between the moat and the city wall were buried deep in the ground to prevent the enemy from attacking the city.
"It's such a majestic city, and it doesn't need to be more than the Central Plains. Xiao Ruoshui looked at the tall and majestic city and couldn't help but admire.
"Yes. The personnel and equipment of this tribe are relatively small in the grassland, so they have relatively high requirements for defense, unlike our Turkic tribes, who live by water, and do not have any big strong fortresses, because our strength is strong enough that no one dares to despise us. Gu Lisha proudly said to Xiao Ruoshui.
"Also, if the offensive force is strong enough, then there is no need for defense, because offense is the best defense. But if the precautionary psychology is too strict, our chances of entering the search for the celestial compass are actually even slimmer. Xiao Ruoshui looked at this city with tall walls and strong defenses, sighed thoughtfully, and said.
"You're not ready to give up, so depressed. Gu Lisha looked at Xiao Ruoshui's appearance. Looking at him a little incredulously. In Kitayama, the fearless man seemed to be gone.
"Maybe, maybe we won't be able to get the pivot of the Star Compass successfully. Xiao Ruoshui poured a basin of cold water on Gu Lisha.
"Where do you look like a hero, what is the difference between you and an ordinary person in the market, you are afraid when you see difficulties. Gu Lisha shouted at Xiao Ruoshui. There was contempt in his eyes.
"I was originally an ordinary person. I'm just a teacher. I never thought about being a hero. Xiao Ruoshui shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently to Gu Lisha. Completely ignoring Gulisa's contemptuous gaze.
Gu Lisha chased after him and wanted to reason with him, but saw that the city gate was close in front of him, and it was not lively for people to come and go. She had no choice but to swallow the truth back into her stomach, and secretly said in her heart that she would educate you well where there was no one. Maybe this world is so strange, if a person doesn't care about another person, she won't have any interest in his behavior, but once she cares, his every move becomes the focus of her heart. This Gu Lisha didn't notice it, and Xiao Ruoshui didn't feel it, only when she lost it, she would feel it. Just like when Li Yunmeng was by Xiao Ruoshui's side, Xiao Ruoshui always seemed to be tormented by her willfulness, but after losing it, he missed the memories brought by this willfulness very much.
After entering the Belen tribe, Xiao Ruoshui found that this city was actually tight inside and loose outside. For example, in Wangcheng, it is only strict with you entering the door, but after entering the city, it is very free, but this place is different, entering the city is very relaxed, but every move after entering the city is as if it is being monitored, it doesn't take long for someone to interrogate you, and you will be interrogated when you walk on the street, as if an outsider has four eyes, and you will be recognized at once. Xiao Ruoshui and Gu Lisha also lost the desire to wander on the street, after all, it was very troublesome to be constantly checked when shopping, and he didn't want to be stared at like a monkey.
Staying in the guest room, Xiao Ruoshui was bored watching the people on the street come and go, and he didn't have a better way now, so he waited until it was dark. Drinking tea and watching people on the street seems to be his only option right now.
The innocent blue of the grassland, cloudless, the grass outside the city has been a little yellow, the endless golden yellow spreads all over the earth, the sun shines on the grassland, the north wind blows the withered yellow grass, winter is coming.
Xiao Ruoshui sat in front of the window in the room of the highest inn in Belen City, looking at the withered yellow outside the city expressionlessly. The wind blew through the windows, making a crackling sound and blowing into the room, bringing a chill with it. Xiao Ruoshui ignored it, still looking out of the city and out of the window with an expressionless face.
Gu Lisha pushed open the door and walked in, she was immediately shivered by a gust of wind blowing through the hall, she looked at Xiao Ruoshui's stunned appearance, sighed and walked to the window and closed the window, Xiao Ruoshui still sat at the table in front of the window without any expression, drinking tea one by one, and did not take the initiative to say a word.
"Winter is coming, it's getting colder, it's better to close the windows. Gulisha said this softly. She didn't know what to say at the moment, maybe if she cared, she could calm Xiao Ruoshui's troubled heart at the moment.
"Winter is coming, everything will be buried, if only we could be buried like things. Xiao Ruoshui rubbed his nose and sighed.
"Actually, we can be buried, and it's not impossible. Gu Lisa said slowly, she picked up the teapot to a cup of tea, put it to her nose and smelled it, raised her head and said, "Good tea." ”。
Xiao Ruoshui rubbed his nose again, he seemed to understand, his sword eyebrows stood up, the corners of his mouth were curled, and he smiled slightly, he knew that Gu Lisha had an idea, so wait for her to say.
"I'll give you a riddle, what's the best way to make a person unable to find something? Gu Lisha's goose-egg-like face pretended to be mysterious, and her black eyes were as delicate as water, which made Xiao Ruoshui can't help but move, he hurriedly looked out of the window, and said to the window: "You mean it's okay to put this thing in a bunch of the same thing, right?" ”
"It's not a loss to be a disciple of Xiangmen, and you can teach it. Gu Lisha nodded and pretended to be an old Confucian student, which made Xiao Ruoshui smile.
"Don't buy it, just say it. Xiao Ruoshui breathed a long sigh of relief and turned her eyes to look at her.
"What do you see this?" Gu Lisha took out two human skin masks and shook them at Xiao Ruoshui.
"You mean we put on makeup and infiltrated the Belen tribe?" Xiao Ruoshui said as he looked at the human skin mask and suddenly realized.
"These two people are not ordinary people, they are Turkic princesses and personal guards, and we play them. Gu Lisha told the story, which surprised Xiao Ruoshui.
"How did you get this? Did you kill them?" Xiao Ruoshui looked at Gu Lisha and looked at her incredulously.
"You underestimate me and my brother too much, we actually went to the Belen tribe to find out the news, to see if the Belen tribe will have the possibility of rebellion, for fear that they will stab us in the back when we go out, we are actually the guards of the Turkic royal family, so I can get this. Gurissa explained.
"What, you're a guard, no wonder I think you're a little weird. Xiao Ruoshui looked at Gu Lisha in amazement.
"Since it's a guard, why do you want to have a conflict with Liu Shen?" Xiao Ruoshui asked a little strangely.
"We have nothing to do with Liu Shen, it's just that Liu Shen captured the princess in order to get the treasure, and by the way, he arrested my brother. Gu Lisha was not angry and said to Xiao Ruoshui.
Xiao Ruoshui was stunned by this accident, as if a big pie fell from the sky and smashed on his head, he looked at Gu Lisha carefully, as if he had never seen her, Gu Lisha glanced at him, his face was crimson, and he looked at Xiao Ruoshui complaining, and the trace of complaint clearly told Xiao Ruoshui, don't go too far, have you seen enough.
Xiao Ruoshui hurriedly withdrew his gaze and looked at it indecently. Picking up the tea and drinking it, he thought to himself, today's things are so ups and downs, I'm a little confused. (To be continued......)
