Chapter 1, camel bell leisurely

[Historical Records · Taishi Gong said: Good books must be collected. Group: 12110478

There is endless yellow sand ahead. Loulan, where is Loulan?

The girl couldn't help but be a little confused. Her father always said that this sandstorm would arrive, but every time she passed the sandstorm, it was still sandstorm.

Behind him, there was nothing but the scattered footprints left by the camel team. Not far away, these footprints were covered by the sandstorm. This is a world of yellow sand. There are neither mountains nor rivers around, only waves of sand dunes. At the far away, the world is full of its vastness and thick color. The remnant sun ancient roads and yellow sand are diffuse, and it seems that they can't escape the world of sand. The air is full of salty wind and sand. When it is blown away by the wind, it suddenly sweeps away, opening its teeth and claws and claws. The ground seems to swallow up this long caravan.

This is a large caravan. More than 100 camels pulled the team long. The camel team walked leisurely while enjoying the sunset between the sand and the sky. From time to time, they rolled their tails, shook their bodies, and brought a leisurely camel bell, which echoed in the empty desert for a long time. The silk and porcelain on the back are piled up with camels and tied into small peaks, much higher than the hump.

At this time, the Silk Road was made by Zhang Qian's envoy to the Western Regions. Not long after it opened, Father Su was the first to print footprints in this yellow sand, and this walk has gone for many years. According to his calculation, this time he set out from Chang'an, took the Hexi Corridor, went out of Yangguan in the west, and passed the Yumen Pass in Dunhuang. At this time, he had arrived in the Bailongdui Desert for several months.

The little camel at the time of departure is now also strong. Its bones are strong, and the muscles on its back look strong. The snow-white mane on its neck have been finely combed, that is, the coquettish girl in a small coat hunched on its back.

The white camel has been gone for many days but he doesn't feel tired at all. On the contrary, if the girl doesn't sit on its back, he won't leave. Looking at the camel she was riding, she said to herself in a panic, "Little guy, why don't you know you're tired?" After she finished speaking, it was a little funny. The salty wind raised the veil on her face, and youth and innocence bloomed on her smiling face.

When it first set out, the little camel was so big that the little girl named it "little guy", but it should be called "big guy" at this time. Looking at the gradually elongated shadow, the girl knew that it was time to tent in the desert again today. She lifted her veil and said, "Dad, how long will it take?"

The girl is more beautiful than durable. In this ghost place in the wind and sand, she neither wears light makeup, nor deliberately pays attention to her behavior, but always gives people a comfortable feeling.

In the words of Father Su, this girl is really adorable.

Before Father Su answered, a sixteen or seven-year-old Persian teenager next to him said, "Miss Su, now you have arrived in the Bailongdui Desert and come out of the desert to Loulan." The teenager still has a baby face and doesn't seem to feel tired. There is a little joy in his voice. Obviously, he has a good impression on this girl. The girl gave a sound and thought that this red-haired and blue-eyed young man's brain was really not as good as our Han people. If she said it, she didn't say anything. She didn't know when she would get out of the desert.

As Father Su shouted at the martial artists, he patted the camel's buttocks under the girl's seat and said with a smile, "Qiao'er, are you tired?" There was a trace of fatigue and numbness in his voice. The girl beat her waist with her back and said lazily, "I'm not tired, but I'm bored. I've been so far for months. When will I arrive?"

The old man Jia next to him strangled the rope and turned sideways and said, "Clever girl, that's not the same. At that time, your father and I went to Dawan, Jingjue, Shule, Persia, Guizi, Wusun, and Xiaoyue, which were all farther than here. Seeing that the girl was tired of hearing this, she smiled, poked her beard and said intoxicatedly, "When you get to Loulan, there are many girls of the barbarian family there, with red hair and blue eyes, who can sing and dance, and when they sleep..."

Speaking of this, all the martial artists around here laughed ambiguously.

The girl suddenly blushed and waved her hand and said, "I don't want to listen, I don't want to..." She has also heard people say that there are many wind and moon places in Loulan City. The caravans who come and go will always live here for a few days. In the words of adults, these businessmen have not settled outside all year round. Usually, when you catch a bird on the road, you have to see if it is male or female. When you get here, you always need to find some psychological and physical comfort.

She can't figure out how to comfort this, but it's always about shame. Now she doesn't listen to what old man Jia said.

Father Su coughed twice and motioned old Jia not to say anything.

He floats around all year round, and his three mothers-in-law are thousands of miles away in Chang'an, so he often wanders in brothels and kilns to find some comfort.

He clearly remembered that several girls in Loulan City last time were fair and jade, shy and soft. He untied the emerald, untied the Xiangluo belt, and muttered softly one by one, half pushing and half, with boundless spring. He pressed the girl and opened his thighs. The angry guy below shook his body like a drunk, and his stomach was a fierce guy...

It is said that home flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers. In Father Su's mind, wild flowers are the most fragrant in Loulan City. Only when it came to Miss Loulan's ** grandeur did he feel that although he was over half a hundred years old, he was still not old.

They suffered for several months and came here to toss without life, just like suddenly meeting an oasis after being thirsty for a long time in the desert, crazy, animalic and desperate.

These things are nothing to people like them who wander around the world, but how to say it in front of his daughter, Father Su suddenly remembered that several of the girls he met in Loulan before were several years younger than their daughters. Thinking of this, there was a burst of awkwardness in his heart and secretly calling it ridiculous.

So, he began to talk about some glorious deeds, and don't mention these inconvenient and obscenes.

When it comes to the last time he went back to Dawan and passed the country of Guizi, he couldn't help fighting. The Silk Road has never been peaceful. Robbers, bandits, and robbers are all uncles who can't afford to provoke. The 100 martial arts masters he brought last time met the Xiongnu soldiers. These comeback thieves stripped him up and down with only a pair of trousers, and hundreds of thousands of silver of silver silk and porcelain were robbed by the Xiongnu soldiers.

So the Xiongnu soldiers killed this day must be killed. Our Hanwu Emperor fought the Xiongnu very well, but unfortunately it was not cleaned up. It's better to leave those wolf cubs, his mother, the old one.

This time, he still couldn't help thinking about it. The truth is naturally not to miss those girls in Loulan City. After all, the profits here are too big. Officials want names, and merchants want the word "profit". If it hadn't been for the great benefits, who would have abandoned his wife and children and come to this place where birds don't lay eggs.

Su Qiaoer laughed. Although she knew that it was wrong to joke about her father, she still laughed in the days when she was bored.

Everyone was tired and didn't want to say anything for a while. Su Qiaoer was bored and looked around at the camel team. There were more than 100 people in this group, all of whom would have martial arts skills. Even she and the handle of the three-legged cat still know a few hands. But when it comes to the best skills, I'm afraid it's still difficult for elders.

This bearded old gentleman and the red-haired and blue-eyed Persian teenager were both Persian fire worship, but they were driven out by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty when they went to Chang'an in the Western Han Dynasty thousands of miles away. Su Qiaoer knew that the martial arts of these two people were very good. From Persia to the Great Han Dynasty, it was thousands of miles away, and there was no certain ability to go.

Unfortunately, they were denounced as magic by the Han Emperor and clashed with the Han Dynasty, so they were driven back.

Yes, you worship the sun and the god of fire, why don't you worship our emperor of the Han Dynasty? Besides, if a person dies, it will be safe to enter the earth. How can you say that you can put it outside and let the birds eat it? Su Qiaoer felt that the elder looked very wise, but she didn't even understand the principle of following the local customs. In fact, she was still a little stupid.

Su Qiaoer looked at the two people again. The old man was very serious. He lived in his home for so many years, but he had a coffin face on the floor all day long, which made her little girl's family dare to get close. Instead, this Persian teenager named Alexis, went to the dog and fed birds and cigs when she was very young, but She always thought that the name was longer, so she called him Ali, a real "yellow-haired boy". She doesn't know what this young man looks like, and her blonde hair and blue eyes always make people feel strange.

She often listens to Ali tell her some customs of the Western Regions, such as Persian water bells like roosters, boats like birds, black oil wells, high lighthouses, mountain-like mausoleums... It was for this reason that she begged her father to take her out. If it was not too interesting in the distance, she would also I won't leave the rich Central Plains, and it's not wild.

Seeing that it was getting late, Father Su was afraid of getting lost. He ordered the martial artists to spend the night in the tent and leave tomorrow morning.

The weather suddenly gets cold at night, hot as hot during the day and cold as winter at night. The weather in this desert will pass the whole year in one day. Father Su found a wool coat for her and let her sleep obediently beside him.

In this wilderness, there is no need to avoid suspicion. Father Su only brings three treasures with him every day, one is a kettle, the other is a waist knife, and the remaining one is his baby daughter.

The next morning, Su Qiaoer got up lazily, but found that the atmosphere was a little wrong. Where did Dad go?

She ran out in a panic, but saw that Xiaoqiu disappeared last night. Father Su's face was extremely cold and said, "It's flowing sand."

Su Qiaoer said faintly and didn't know what happened when she met the sand.

At this time, the martial artists also gathered around and cheered as if they had exploded. Su Qiaoer didn't know what had happened. She squeezed over and saw several piles of goods in the sand not far from the ground, including silk, porcelain, Tianyu, Haibei, Kunlun soft jade and other extremely valuable goods, which seemed to fall from the sky.

Father Su was the first to get up this morning and see these goods, which was much more than what he had. He was ecstatic. He secretly said that the old man was really smoking on his ancestral grave. He had to take care of him and let himself drive back the capital that was robbed by the Xiongnu soldiers last time.

But now when others are shouting for pleasure, Father Su's face has become extremely ugly.

Silk and porcelain are transported from the East to the West, while Tianyu, Haibei and Kunlun soft jade are transported from the West to the East. These two piles of goods are not from the same person. That is to say, two groups of people were killed when they arrived here. What's more shocking is that there are more than 100 mummified bodies in the pile of goods.

Su Qiaoer was not very happy to look at the goods. For her, the family had enough money, but her father had to work hard to come. At this time, she couldn't help but pale with fear when she saw the bones, but she was afraid, but she was not surprised, because in the desert, it was easier to see the bones than to see stones. She took her little mouth and looked from east to west. She saw that there were large and small bones, and a burst of sadness flashed in her heart.

If you are buried in this yellow sand and become a white bone, it must be the smallest one, right?

Thinking about it, the elders and Arisis were praying secretly. They half bent their bodies and put their hands together, secretly chanting scriptures in their mouths to bless the dead. This is the doctrine of Zorification. These believers advocate light, peace and cleanliness, and are believed by all countries in the Western Regions.

It is difficult to grow old with a pile of bones, sighing secretly. In their eyes, fire, water and earth are sacred. After death, people can only be buried in heaven and let the vulture eagle eat them. What should they do?

Let it be here.

Father Su couldn't help sweating when he thought of the flowing sand. Encountering fasting sand in the desert is like meeting death.

The elder said, "There is flowing sand in this place. You have to leave immediately." Father Su was reluctant to abandon these goods. He shouted at the martial artists to take all the goods with him, shouting and helping to load the goods. It was difficult to shake his head repeatedly and said to himself, "Everyone in the world has a demon. It's far from enough for us to preach."

After walking for a day, Father Su finally couldn't stand it.

They lost their way in the sand. The original oasis can't be found now, and the original Gobi is gone. Where should they go? The most terrible thing is that there is no water. Alexis is kneeling on the ground and praying, saying a word in his mouth, begging the sun god to give them water.

Su Qiaoer's heart was funny. She thought that this young man really didn't know whether it was good or not. Isn't it a ghost to ask for water from the sun on a hot day? If he really asks for a fire, do you want it or not?

When he camped that night, Father Su finally decided to kill the camel to save his life. All the camels here are carrying goods. Killing a camel means losing something. Everyone saw Su Qiaoer's "little guy" together, which was an idle animal. When Su Qiaoer saw that everyone was going to kill her camel, she was hit by a deer and panicked, "No, Dad."

At this time, several camels had shed tears under the sharp knife of the martial artist, including the mother of the "little guy". The little guy howled and circled around the old camel. Su Qiaoer wanted to say more, but saw that the martial artist's knife had been stabbed at the little guy.

Su Qiaoer shouted that she couldn't do it and suddenly jumped to stand in front of her. Father Su looked extremely cold and said, "Qiaoer, don't mess around." Su Qiaoer was wronged and turned to look at the old man Jia. The old man Jia also said, "Cqiao girl, you can't be good at the moment of life and death. You can ride me."

Seeing that her words didn't work at this time, Su Qiaoer suddenly beat the little guy and said urgently, "Run away quickly." But the little guy is as small as a hill. Her pair of pink fists are okay to tickle, but it is impossible to hurt.

The little camel just circled around the old camel and howled. Su Qiaoer was so anxious that she suddenly grabbed the sharp knife from the martial artist's hand and tapped it fiercely on the little guy's buttocks. The little camel ate pain, screamed and flew away, disappearing behind the sand dunes.

Father Su sighed and said nothing more. Before dawn the next day, Su Qiaoer was called up by Father Su to escape for her life. I heard from Father Su that the sand was coming. She suddenly remembered those bones. Will she be like those people? Beauty and white bones are not a fun thing.
