When it was dark, the team stopped to camp, and Liu Wenxuan took Zhao Yi to leave first.
In the caravan, several sets of Wutuo's clothes were prepared long ago. After Qin Xiao and Dapeng put on the clothes of the Wutuo herders, if they didn't come closer and look closely, they wouldn't be able to recognize that they came from within the pass. Chinese people.
The two packed up without delay, and set off to the direction of Westwind Fort.
The caravan is now in the place where the Wutuo people graze. Everyone knows that Huangxi Deadwing is bold, but it is hard to come here anymore. After all, once the Wutuo people find a trace, they will inevitably assemble their troops. Ma chasing after him, Huangxi Deadwing is causing trouble.
The two set off overnight and drove dozens of miles into the Wutuo grazing area.
The territory of the Utua Khanate is actually very vast. Although the eight tribes of Utua are the main body, the tribes under it are as numerous as hairs. In just a few decades, the lifestyles of many tribes have not been completely changed, and they still maintain The original habit.
The area controlled by the White Wolf tribe is not small, but the Gobi sandy land occupies a large area. In addition, there are herders grazing, which is roughly the same as the way of life of the Wutuo people.
The two walked through the vast wilderness overnight, and they also passed by the shepherd’s camp from time to time, but they were all scattered tents. They did not bother them. The shepherd seemed to be used to someone running in the wilderness and didn’t care.
The two were almost non-stop. By the evening of the next day, the outline of the mountains appeared vaguely forward. Qin Xiao opened the map, and the drawing was very clear. He said to Dapeng: "Brother Dapeng, there is a wolf in front. Tushan, looking at the map drawn on the map, the road is not short. The roads there are rugged and difficult to walk. We may not be able to pass Langtushan tonight."
"I've heard of Wolftu Mountain." Dapeng said: "The caravan going west in the early years will change color when hearing Wolftu Mountain. It is the most dangerous place on the way to Chinatown. It stretches for dozens of miles. The road is really hard to follow. Many wicked people use Langtu Mountain as a hunting ground."
"How is the situation now?"
"The Wutuo people sent troops to clean up many times, and got rid of the multiple horse bandits who were walking around Langtu Mountain." Dapeng said: "There are few horse bandits appearing in Langtu Mountain now, but bad luck. There will still be some wild dogs playing wild food."
"Hunting for wild food?"
"Wu Tuo also has many people who can't survive." Dapeng explained: "The courageous will gather together and lie in ambush in that mountain, looking for opportunities to start. They are not many in number, and during the day. They dare not act. Often a few people are lying there in ambush at night. If they see single or weak pedestrians, they will rush out to rob them. The caravan calls these people wild dogs, which is a mockery. They don’t have horse thieves. It's so fierce, it can only bully the weak and pick up some bones to eat."
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "This is very vivid." After a pause, he said, "Brother Dapeng, we have been on our way for a day. Even if we enter Langtu Mountain tonight, we can't go out, my It means that at dawn tomorrow, let’s enter the mountain again. At that time, our sight will be good, and as you said, we won’t encounter wild dogs anymore. We can definitely get out of Wolftu Mountain in one day."
"Do as you said." Dapeng nodded, looked around, raised his hand and pointed to the south: "Brother Wang, look at there, there are some tents over there, or we will be here tonight. Loan over there for one night."
Qin Xiaodao: "Is that the tent of the Wutuo herdsmen?"
"Don't worry, although we have fought with the Wutuo people, not all the Wutuo people are vicious and vicious." Dapeng laughed and said, "The Wutuo herdsmen are hospitable and warm to others. We did not bring the account.
Canopy, if you sleep in the grass here at night, tomorrow morning, your face will be covered with blood bumps bitten by bugs. Don't underestimate the poisonous insects here. They are very fierce. Some poisonous insects can even kill people. "
"So fierce?"
"It's not alarmist. Someone was killed by poisonous insects before." Dapeng said, "If you don't enter the mountains tonight, you must find a shepherd to stay. They live here and know how to deal with poisonous insects." Pointing over there. The tent said: "It looks like a simple tent, but the place where they set up the tent is smoked with medicinal materials, and the snakes and insects dare not come close. The caravan camped on this grassland, and sometimes they did not bring the medicine. They buy, scattered travelers like us, they are also happy to take in, and when they leave, just leave them some money."
Qin Xiao thought about it for a while before he said: "Brother Dapeng, although we are wearing Wutuo clothes, we are not theirs when we look at each other. We stayed in, will they leak news?"
"You see that the aquatic plants here are not lush." Dapeng has some experience: "So the herdsmen here are definitely not members of the Wutuo tribe, they are just small tribes. There are only five or six tents. At most, there are only a few herdsmen families. They are the most ordinary people in Wutuo. They don’t know any powerful people, and they are relatively remote here. Not to mention that they don’t know how to report. It can be reported." He glanced at Qin Xiao and said with a smile: "They live here, and there are still a lot of roads to Tangren City. I’m afraid they don’t even know what is happening in Tangren City. For them, the sunrise is pasture. The sunset is life, there is no need to cause trouble."
Qin Xiao knows what Dapeng said is not unreasonable, and nodded and said: "In that case, let's go over and stay overnight."
The two patted their horses and went to the tent. From a distance, they saw dozens of cattle and sheep near the tent. Several shepherds were grazing there. Near the edge of the tent, an old shepherd in his early fifties stared at them. When the two got off the horse, the old shepherd bowed down and bowed, and Dapeng also bowed, saying: "Old man, we are the Tang people from the Guan, and we are going to meet with our caravan. It's too late. Going into the mountains, I want to spend the night here, I wonder if it is convenient?"
The old shepherd looked up at the sky, showing a kind smile, and said in the half-baked Central Plains words: "It's dark, don't go into the mountains, just stay here for one night." Then he said: "I'll find someone to pick you up. A tent." Not much to say, and went straight to the flock.
"Know that he can speak Central Plains?"
Dapeng smiled and said: "We are in front of Wolftu Mountain. We are not the only people who dare not enter the mountain at night. Look at their camp, they are not set up here temporarily, they should have been here for a long time. Many people stay here, and it is only natural for them to learn a few words of Central Plains."
Qin Xiao thought that he was right with the Dapeng team. Dapeng's personality is relatively introverted, but he is more careful in observation and full of experience. If you change to Zhao Yi, I am afraid you will not be so careful.
The two **** the horses. The old shepherd had brought three young shepherds over. The young shepherds carried the tent, nodded and smiled at Qin Xiao, did not speak, and began to set up a tent nearby. They have agile hands and feet, and their movements are skillful. At first glance, they often do such things.
"Very few caravans have passed this neighborhood recently." The old shepherd brought two bowls of goat's milk over, "After setting up the tent, you should rest first, and give you food later, what can I do if you need help? Yes, just tell us."
The two took the goat's milk, but Dapeng was not welcome. After taking a sip, Qin Xiao smelled it, which was really something
I am not used to it. Seeing the Dapeng drank it in one fell swoop, I knew that I would go to the village to do the same, and other people would give milk with kindness. I really can’t help but give it a sip.
He bent over to express his gratitude, and returned the bowl with both hands to the old shepherd. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed that something was wrong not far away. He turned to look over and saw a figure retracting into a tent, a little strange.
The tent was quickly set up. The temporary tent is not very big, but it is more than enough for two people.
Qin Xiao thought that this place should be just like the inn in Guannei. When guests come, they will set up tents as guest rooms, and they will provide them if they need them. When they leave, they will leave the room money.
Suddenly thought that someone retracted the tent just now, and couldn’t help but look at it again, only to find that there were two tents that were obviously newly erected, similar to the tent I was going to live in. The figure just retracted one of them. The tent, so to speak, he and Dapeng are not the only guests here. Before that, guests had already lived in.
When it got dark, Qin Xiao and Dapeng were already lying in the tent.
Although the tent is not big, the two of them are considered open inside. Naturally, the ground here has been cleared of weeds and leaned on cowhide to make a bed, which is naturally a big gap compared to the guest rooms of the Central Plains Inn.
The meal was delivered by an old woman. It was not as exquisite as the Central Plains dishes, but the aroma of roasted meat coated with ingredients was very appetizing.
The two were feasting, Qin Xiao smiled and said: "You can also eat barbecue in Guannei, but if you want to eat real barbecue, it is better here. The outside is burnt and the inside is tender. It is really delicious on earth."
"So when we leave tomorrow, we really can't be stingy." Dapeng drank milk wine and ate meat: "I guess they live by hosting and lodging. The cattle and sheep raised are used to make food for guests. ."
Qin Xiao laughed, then whispered: "Brother Dapeng, there seem to be other guests here?"
"I saw it." Dapeng nodded and said, "It has nothing to do with us, don't worry about it." He went over to blow out the light, and said softly: "Go to bed early, there are still a lot of things to do later, let's replenish our energy. Sharp."
The tent was completely dark, Qin Xiao was lying on the cowhide, and there was silence around him.
The shepherd sleeps very early, and occasionally there are a few cow moos.
Qin Xiao knew that he and Dapeng would be far behind in the journey no matter how fast the caravan would take two or three days.
The night is quiet. He was about to close his eyes and go to sleep. He suddenly heard the sound of very light footsteps. His heart was stunned, and he looked towards Dapeng, only to see Dapeng sitting up quietly, to this He made a gesture, but told himself not to act rashly.
Although Dapeng was sitting, he deliberately snored, but Qin Xiao had already taken out the fish intestine thorn hidden in his body and held it in his hand.
Although the inside of the tent was extremely dim, it was a month tonight, but it was quite bright outside. Soon, I saw a gap open at the tent door, and someone was cautiously pulling the tent apart, but Dapeng was lying down instead. After going down, the purring continued.
Qin Xiao also lay, holding the fish intestines tightly, and when the person really wanted to enter the tent, the two immediately grabbed it.
