Chapter 257 Stepping into the Land
set off again and set foot on the vast road in the north. The four people also felt more and more deeply about the season.
A few months ago, when I was in Zhuoguo, the temperature at noon was still very high. It was enough to wear a thin shirt in summer clothes.
When you return to Yaoguo, you only need to wear clothes of ordinary thickness to resist the frost of late autumn.
But since stepping into the sparkling country, the four people have been armed up all over the body, except for leather hats, leather coats and boots!
Also, the four people walked for a short time. Unexpectedly, they walked for almost a month and a half before stepping into the territory of Lingguo.
This has to be put in modern times, but only a few hours of planes, but in ancient times, it took a month and a half!
Of course, four of them stayed for a long time because of this and that, so they had walked more than half of the journey in a month.
Looking at the end of October of the lunar calendar, it became depressing everywhere. The vast grassland has lost its color and is desolate.
On this day, the wind and sand were very strong. Xiang Zixi and Little Fatty had to cover their faces with a veil to cover the sand grains blowing from the Gobi Desert.
"Take a break!" Xin Zeyang stopped the carriage and said to the three women in the car, "We are taking a shortcut. Walking through this Gobi can save a lot of time."
He nodded to Zixi, took off his veil and said, "Yes, crossing the Gobi is no better than going to the city. It's particularly troublesome to find water here! So we must prepare enough water and food. Let's go down for a stroll and enjoy the unique scenery of this country! In fact, it is a beautiful thing to watch the sunset on the Gobi Desert!"
Little fat asked in surprise, "Miss, look at what you said, as if you had been here!"
Xiang Zixi made a grimace at her and said, "Yes, yes, I don't know how many times I've been here in my dream!" This is called agrie!"
Little Pangpang jumped off the carriage, stuffed all the valuable things into the bag, and said to Xiang Zixi, "There seems to be a market in front of it. Let's go and have a look!"
Immediately, four people led the carriage to the market in the distance. After a pub that only used wood for simple support, Xin Zeyang handed over the carriage to Xiao Er and followed three women into the pub.
In this Ling country located in the north, except for business people, there are few women from the south.
Therefore, when Xiang Zixi and Xiaofei Xiaopangpang stepped into the pub, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on the three of them.
"Wow! Beauty!" Several strangely dressed and tough men in the crowd shouted in surprise: "The man's woman is really watery! I like it!"
Little fat and little fat were about to get angry. They grabbed the two people to Zixi, shook their heads gently, and said to Xiao Er, "Prepare a table for me!"
"Good!" Xiao Er came to an empty table in the corner with Xiang Zixi and four others, wiped the table and chair hard with the towel around his neck, and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Give us a pot of good wine and three catties of cooked meat. If you have any good dishes, please feel free to eat!" Xiang Zixi pinched a small silver and put it on the table: "For the rest, prepare some big cakes for me to make new ones!" I don't want old goods either!"
Xiao Er happily put the silver in the palm of his hand and shouted, "Yes! Four, come on in a minute!"
With that, Xiao Er retreated inside and wine at the boss. That means that everyone knows it, that is to say, this is a fat sheep!
This little brother looked at Zixi and his party, a teenager and three women, and he was generous. He must be a rich man! If you don't slaughter such a fat sheep, who will slaughter?
At this time, a man wearing only a sheepskin jacket, revealing his chest and a necklace made of sheep bones, staggered towards Zixi. The man shaved his big bald head, shiny, with three huge earrings in his right ear, shining. There is a hemp rope tied around his waist, a bright machete attached to the hemp rope, a pair of fat trousers similar to seven-point trousers, and a pair of cowhide boots wrapped around his ankles.
The man sat opposite Xiang Zixi and said drunkenly, "It is said that this woman in the south, especially the woman in Yaoguo, has snow and her skin is like curd fat. I have only heard of it before, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. Now when I see it, it really lives up to its reputation! The woman in the desert is really petite!"
Little fat and little fat stared. Just as he was about to get angry, he was gently pressed under the table by Xiang Zixi.
Now that they have arrived in the sparkling country, they can bear everything.
Xin Zeyang heard that the man was so frivolous and even more angry. He wanted to stand up several times, but was pressed down on the table with his feet by Xiang Zixi.
After looking at Zixi at the appearance of the big man, his tone suddenly changed and he spoke in a strange language. The drunken man originally wanted to continue laughing, but after hearing Xiang Zixi's words, he seemed to see a ghost. He stood up and answered a few words in that strange language in a panic. Xiang Zixi snorted coldly and said another sentence. This time, the man completely became un calm and towards Xiang Zixi knelt down and knocked two heads, turned around and ran away!
This time, not only Xiaofei, Xiaopangpang and Jin Haoxuan are strange, but also others look at Xiang Zixi with curious faces. I don't know what she just said, but she just sent the man away in just a few words!
"Nothing! I just asked him which tribe he was from!" Xiang Zixi shrugged his shoulders and didn't care: "Then I told him that I was the guest of the king!"
A group of people looked at Xiang Zixi as if they were looking at monsters, and Xin Zeyang's face was even more unbelievable: "You, how can you speak such a strange language?"
Xiang Zixi shrugged his shoulders: "What is that? I have learned it!——"
Xiang Zixi suddenly remembered that she accidentally felt bored in her previous life, so she learned a little Mongolian from her anonymous college classmates, but she never expected it to be useful in this world! When I left the organization, I was bored and made a set of fake identity and fake materials. I was admitted to a national university for several years. I didn't gain anything else, but because I learned a lot of languages for fun.
Xiaofeifei said in surprise, "But now the four countries are unified languages. Why don't we know anything about when Miss has learned such a rare language?"
Xiang Zixi giggled, yes, how do you explain this? She looked forward to Ai Ai for a long time and stared: "Anyway, I just know a little. What's wrong? Although the languages of the four countries are unified now, the real nobles speak Mongolian, not the language we speak now! So, I will order more or less!"
Xin Zeyang couldn't help shaking his head: "There are so many incredible things about you!"
Little fat and little fat nodded and said, "That's right! Miss always has so many things hidden from us! Miss, really!"
Xiang Zixi was silly and happy: "Oi, okay, I'll tell you in the future!"
At this time, the dishes on the table were served one after another. The second child who planned to attack Zixi suddenly became respectful, and his respectful attitude made people uncomfortable. Just now, Xiao Er's enthusiasm came from commercial politeness, but now's respect is the fear from the bottom of his heart!
The boss wiped a cold sweat in the back! It's so close! In case you steal a big nobleman, not to mention your own small shop, I'm afraid that your family can't save their lives!
Xiang Zixi, as a senior thief, found that something was wrong as soon as he entered the door, but he didn't bother to change places. He just took advantage of the blind man to show his identity in the clouds. It's also a knock on the mountain and shock the tiger!
Sure enough, no one came to look for trouble after this meal, and the four people finished the meal safely.
After packing up the pancakes sent by the boss, Xiaofei carried them all by himself, and the four of them walked slowly outside.
As soon as he went out, the man who had just been shouted back by Zixi suddenly knelt outside the door and said respectfully, "The little one has no eyes. He bumped into the nobleman and asked him to punish him!"
Xin Zeyang frowned gently: "We have forgiven you. You can go!"
The man suddenly trembled slightly, lying on the ground in fear, and said inexplicably, "Your honor, please be gracious!"
said lightly to Zixi, "Get up! As a punishment, let you follow us around here! If someone dares to come forward to disturb you, you should understand what to do, right?
"Yes!" The man shouted in surprise and almost burst into tears.
Xiang Zixi whispered to the other three people and explained, "In Linguo, the distinction between the status of nobles and civilians is obvious!" Nobles have the right to dispose of civilians at will! And as long as civilians hit the nobles, they will definitely die! Therefore, this man was rude to me just now. According to the law, I can kill him or even his family at any time!"
Little fat and fat fat opened his mouth: "How is that possible? How can there be such a domineering law!"
"Yes! This is the special law of the country!" Xiang Zixi sighed and said, "The land here is most barren, and the people are mainly nomadic. Therefore, all the people here are brave and good at fighting. Men, women and children, as long as they step on the horse, they are warriors! Under such a tough folk trend, if there is no strongshou wan, civil changes are not a common thing? That's why it has evolved into what it is now. Perhaps, for the country, this is the best way to manage. But in the long run, it may not be the most suitable. In fact, the drawbacks have begun to be temporarily revealed, and the contradictions between nobles and civilians in the country are constantly intensifying. Once they are evenly matched, it must be the time for the country to overthrow. And it is for this reason that the whole country decided to launch a war to consume the population and calm the contradictions. Second, the huge benefits brought by the war can temporarily ease domestic tensions. Why don't you kill two birds with one stone?
