Chapter 309 Westbound Food

Guizi is a city in the Western Region where Buddhism prevails, with many temples and grottoes. Buddhism originated in India and spread to Guizi, an important town on the North Silk Road through the Silk Road. As early as the third century, Buddhism had been widely spread in the Guizi area, and monks and secular activities such as temples, caves, statues, paintings, and offerings to Buddhas have been very frequent.

Moreover, many monasteries and Buddhist grottoes were destroyed in the protracted "jihad" against the Buddhist countries in the Western Regions when the Uigu and Qarakhanid converted to Islam in later generations (the end of the 10th century AD).

Therefore, Zhang Fan rested in Anxi for a period of time and happily linger in these monasteries and grottoes. It's just hateful that there is no camera and can't leave video materials. This is a lost national treasure!

More than a month later, the imperial envoy who visited the Great Food Country finally came to Guizi. In addition to the officials, there was a business group to follow. It also brought thousands of kilograms of tea, satin, pottery and other products from the Tang Dynasty, as well as hundreds of craftsmen.

According to the news of the Flying Eagle on Patiguri's side, the Abbasid Empire is also an envoy of the same size, including businessmen, doctors, scholars of all kinds of exchange and learning, all kinds of craftsmen, especially smelting craftsmen, with iron (Damasus steel), spices, various books and documents, horses, leather, wool fabrics, gold There are countless special goods of the Arab Empire such as silverware...

This is really a large-scale cultural exchange between the two empires, and its significance and impact on future generations can no longer be expressed in words. But it must have changed the civilization process of the whole world after 751 AD!

Zhang Fan's team and Patiguli's team naturally received the task instructions to escort the mission, and there were not many rewards, 500 merit points and 5 bonus points. But it must be very safe, and you can take the opportunity to travel to learn about the glorious empires of the two ancient civilizations of the world! This is also a kind of benefit of the scene.

Gao Xianzhi's troops sent 1,500 Tang soldiers, led by three leading lieutenants Zhang Fan, including 500 cavalry, which naturally belonged to the Green Wing. Interestingly, they were not able to travel to the country of their own camp, but went to the country of the other camp first. This is a pity for Zhang Fan. He really wants to walk the Silk Road and see the Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty...

Before leaving, Zhang Fan Akon went to meet the sloppy Taoist priest and asked how to return to the Edo period in Japan in the future.

"After you finish, find a way to go directly to Japan, and I will wait for you in Japan..." said the Taoist priest.

"Japan is so big, where can I find you?" Aken asked.

"Where you are lost, you will naturally go back." The Taoist priest took a sip of wine and replied, "That's right, let me take that monster. I still have something to use."

At this time, Benzo said, "Take me with you. I also want to go back and see what Japan looks like now. Dark Sakura, where are you? How about going back together now? Look at what your hometown looks like now, maybe you can still see your great-great-grandfather!"

Benzang also got some props, blue supplies, and blue props obtained after killing senior opponents in battle. He doesn't want to work hard anymore. He is not interested in traveling to an ancient country that has nothing to do with his own country.

Dark Sakura thought for a moment and looked at Zhang Fan, but she was a little reluctant.

Zhang Fan patted the girl's head and smiled, "Dark Sakura can go home to see your ancient hometown. This is a rare opportunity. We will go there sooner or later. Follow us. The journey is very far away and very tiring. If you go back with the Taoist, it's hard to say that you can learn more skills. In the future, I will put up with it and help the eldest brother more!"

When Dark Sakura heard the words, she nodded vigorously, "Well, Dark Sakura will definitely work hard, so go back. Zhang Fanjun, take care!"

The Taoist priest took out three runes and gave them to the three people, saying, "You must complete all the tasks before November 9th of the 14th year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty (December 16, 755). Then use this rune, otherwise it will be recalled to the hometown of the precept holder. Then arrive at the designated place in Japan, and it will be troublesome if it is late! That's another scene of 'Anshi Rebellion'. If you miss the time, I can't help you! Remember! Remember!"

"Oh, by the way, if you may pass by Dunhuang, help me get some five-color sand back..."

Five-color sand? What is that?" Aken asked.

"Good things that can repair high-quality props, get as much as possible." The sloppy Taoist ordered.

Aken nodded and agreed. The three took over the Fu and did not dare to neglect it. So he hugged and said goodbye to Benzang Dark Sakura and broke up outside the city of Guizi...

On the way to the Great Food Kingdom, the ancient customs and exotic scenery, needless to say, the three of them opened their eyes. Zhang Fan Aken also learned a lot of unknown ancient knowledge and the correct history of the times.

Only in the area of the Pamir Plateau in Central Asia, those tribes are attacking each other and there are continuous small-scale conflicts. During this period, all ethnic groups suffered heavy casualties, and the people did not make a living. Zhang Fan sighed deeply without feeling that these are all the consequences of his 'using Hu' policy, and its impact must be far-reaching! If we follow such a historical process, the tribes here will have endless hatred in the future!

Although for the Tang Dynasty, this is conducive to the court's rule here, and can even weaken the strength of the tribes in Central Asia, and finally merge into the territory of China, promoting economic and cultural development under the unified governance of China. But for this era, it is very sad for the people here. Historically, it is hard to say whether it is right or wrong.

The three of them had nothing to do on the way and tested all the props. Among them, Duan Xiushi gave to Akan, the dark green Damascus knife, and the ten Bahan cavalry guards who were destroyed by the whole army with green wings. The horse whip left behind was the most excellent! That horse whip can summon ten Bahan cavalry to charge. However, it can only be summoned twice per scene.

Of course, the sweaty horse of Green Wing is also a very good riding prop. Now Green Wing rarely takes a car.

"Well, you said this stick, and this spearhead..." Aken took out the 'crazy meditation' and lucky spearhead and shook it at Zhang Fan, "Do you think..."

"Don't, it's hard to turn it into a green prop. Don't spoil it again! What's more, whether this spearhead can be upgraded is still a problem. Zhang Fan quickly grabbed the green stick.

Aken shook his head and said with a straight face, "You often use that diamond pestle now. Except for the auxiliary skills, this stick basically overlaps with the diamond pestle. Moreover, I think this prop may be the key to upgrading the spearhead. Why don't you try it?

Zhang Fan thought for a long time and hesitated, mainly out of respect for that Yiluohan.

Aken sighed and was about to put away the spearhead, but Zhang Fan solemnly gave the stick to Aken. "Master Yixiu once said that this stick needs to find the right person to make it well. Maybe this person is you."

Aken looked up and said, "Are you really going to leave it to me?" Zhang Fan nodded.

The spearhead and the stick were combined again, and a green light gushed out of the stick and rushed to the spearhead. The two of them are used to the greed of this spearhead and don't care. But this time it was different. After the green light rushed to the spearhead, it returned to the stick and then surged back and forth, as if the two props were going to be combined into one...

The two of them are overjoyed! Are new props about to take shape? But half a day later, the light gradually dimmed, and the last two props were still "squat!" With a sound, he fell to the ground. No synthesis! However, when the two picked up two props disappointedly, they looked at the attributes and became happy again. It turned out that the spearhead was upgraded to green...

'Redemption of the Holy One (dark green): The heavy suffering of the Holy One is only for the redemption of the sins of the world!

The blessing of fate: passive skills, personal carrier fortune plus 8. The team carries, and all members have a fortune of 4;

Redemption of suffering: heavy healing, any injury, negative state, or even near death, quickly return to the best state; this skill can only be used once.

And the stick has also been upgraded! It turned into a long cane, and the pattern wrapped on it is very exquisite and beautiful, with some classical charm of medieval Europe.

'The thought of the saint (green): What the saint cares about is the loss of the world.

If you use more than 25 with one hand, you need strength 15, agility 12, melee damage physical strength (spiritual power) 200, durability 500 (500) automatic recovery, and 500% bonus to attack demonic and necromancers.

Purify, shoot a light arrow, disperse the enemy's supernatural attack, ignore the defensive attack power of 30 to 200, or relieve the negative abnormal state of the body of its own members, and consume 30 spiritual power;

Help, with passive skills, the holder improves spell ability by 30%; body recovery speed is increased by 30%;

Qingming, passive skills, the holder's reflection confusion, confusing mental damage.

"Hahaha! It's surprising that there is such a result!" The two laughed happily, but when they put the two props together, they couldn't upgrade each other. It's strange to be able to upgrade again. Zhang Fan was very happy that he had done a good deed and received such a huge reward. It seems that if the ringer who gave him this broken spear knew, he would not have died in pain!

............

The visit to the Great Food Country was very successful. They went to Anbar in ancient times and were attacked by the Abbasid Caliphate - Abu. Abbas's warm hospitality. In 754, Abbas's second caliph, Mansur, moved his capital to Baghdad.)

The envoy officials discussed the border and divided the territory. Because it was a victorious country, this visit was fruitful, which actually extended the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty to more than 100 miles west of Talos City!

After that, Mr. Lin Lin, some state affairs, and not the lieutenants in the three armies can participate. Zhang Fan and the other two took this opportunity to visit the ancient Baghdad and look for the relics of the legendary Babel Tower!
