Three Kingdoms Simulator: This Ma Su is too stable

Chapter 114 No, you don't know him at all (please subscribe!)

……

"General, it's time to go..."

In the early morning of the next day, Ma Sufu, who was still lingering in the warm quilt, heard this, and immediately his brain exploded.

As long as you hear this sentence, you will involuntarily think of the scene of "Captain Teemo is dying".

And seeing the surrounding environment clearly, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

He was not in a desperate situation, and Wei Bing did not come.

The world is stable, but Axiu is still gentle.

It's just that Zhang Xiu poked his head out of the window to call him.

Ma Di glared at Zhang Xiu angrily, dressed and washed, rubbed his numb head and went outside the courtyard.

Qiang girl and Zhang Xiu have been waiting here for a long time, the former is tightly wrapped and has a stern face; the latter is breathing coldly, stamping his feet, carrying a bulging package on his back, and leading three horses in his hands.

Seeing Ma Su looking over, he patted the package and said: "General, the dry food, water and money are all ready, and I have brought a full [-] yuan!"

Twenty thousand dollars is indeed a lot.

Ma Di nodded, waved goodbye to those who came to see him off, got on his horse, stepped on the remaining snow residue on the ground, and walked southward at a leisurely pace.

Back to Chengdu this time, in fact, there is no big deal, it is to be appointed as an official and a noble.But this process must be done in person, in order to show the grace and power of the post-lord Liu Chan.

So when you receive an order from the prime minister, you should set off immediately.

But Ma Su insisted on delaying his departure for three days in order to gain deep control over Xianling Qiang.

Since it was winter, the remaining snow was half-melted, the ground was slightly wet, and the rugged and narrow road was extremely muddy and difficult to walk, so Ma Di walked very slowly at first.

Zhang Xiu rode alone at the front, urging excitedly: "General, hurry up."

"General, the ants are all trampled to death."

"General..."

"Don't be impatient!" Ma Di glanced at him angrily: "The mountain road is rugged and narrow, muddy and difficult to walk, it is better to proceed step by step and increase speed slowly."

Makes sense.

Zhang Xiu suddenly thought about it.

Amidst the clatter of horseshoes, the three of them continued to move forward.

All the way safe and sound.

On the afternoon of the third day, after passing the Eastern Qiang territory, Ma Su suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Because Zhang Xiu, who was in charge of leading the way, had to scratch his head and observe for a long time every time he reached an intersection, hesitating for a long time before moving on.

Judging from the situation, he doesn't seem to know the way to Yinping.

Ma Di didn't know him either.

He only knew that Yinping was a thousand miles to the south of Xianling Qiang, and Chengdu was five hundred miles to the south of Yinping, but he didn't know which way to go.

Originally, there was no such thing as not knowing the way back to Chengdu.

Because walking three hundred miles south from Xianling Qiang is Dong Qiang.

Five hundred miles eastward from Dongqiang is Jianwei, one hundred miles eastward of Jianwei is Xixian County, seven hundred miles eastward of Xixian County is Mianxian County, and then enter Sichuan through Yangping Pass and Jiange. land.Then go south for seven hundred miles and you will arrive at Chengdu.

Due to a large circle, the total distance of this route is about [-] miles.

But the current route is to go directly south after reaching Dongqiang, instead of going east to Jianwei.

So, here comes the problem, everyone doesn't know the road from Dongqiang to Yinping.

This section of the road is seven hundred miles long.

It is absolutely impossible to rely on recklessness alone.

Qiang girl might know Lu, but because she was angry with Ma Di these days, she didn't say a word along the way.

In fact, originally there was a guide and follower, Axiu who was familiar with the road conditions in Qiang, who volunteered to send Ma Di to Yinping.

But on the night before the departure, Ma Di was full of energy, and Axiu happened to be by his side, so Axiu couldn't get up the next day.

When they reached a five-forked road, Zhang Xiu reined in his horse and looked at Ma Di with a dazed expression: "General, which way to go?"

You ask me, who do I ask?
Ma Su looked at Qiang girl speechlessly.

Dear great wizard, can you show me the way?
The Qiang girl raised her chin a little arrogantly, turned her head to look at the scenery between the mountains and fields, and did not meet Ma Su's gaze.

Seeing this, Ma Di, who always asks for nothing (only asks for the system) blood pressure immediately rose, and waved his big hand: "Go, go south! When you see a village, you enter, and when you see people, you ask. I still don't believe that I can't walk." Yinping!"

Zhang Xiu identified his position, chose a rugged mountain road, and rode forward.

After walking along the mountain road for half a day, the road became more and more difficult, and the snow in the mountains became thicker.When it was getting dark, another five-forked road appeared in front of him. Zhang Xiu didn't dare to ask Ma Su any more, so he just picked a road and walked down.

Not far away, I saw a small village next to the mountain road. Two small wooden houses are located in the snow-capped wilderness, which is extraordinarily quiet and elegant.

Zhang Xiu was overjoyed and hurried forward to knock on the door.

The person who opened the door was an old man who was nearly half a century old with a hunched waist. He saw Zhang Xiu dressed in a military outfit with a sharp weapon on his waist, so he asked with a smile on his face, "Where did the general come from? But he wants to stay overnight?"

Zhang Xiu nodded and briefly introduced himself.

The old man hurriedly invited the three of them into the small fenced courtyard and arranged food and rooms.

Due to the limited number of rooms, Ma Di spent the night in the simple side room holding his nose.

The Qiang girl lived in the firewood house, and Zhang Xiu went to the cowshed.

Early the next morning, after dinner, Zhang Xiu asked, "Old man, do you know how to get to Yinping?"

Hearing this, the old man was obviously stunned for a moment: "This old man knows that if you walk a hundred miles forward, turn over a hundred-mile snow-capped mountain, and then go southeast for more than 400 miles, you will reach the boundary of Yinping."

Zhang Xiu looked the old man up and down, and asked, "Old man, can you lead me the way? It will be of great benefit!"

The old man hesitated again and again, but still shook his head: "I'm sorry, the little old man has bad legs and feet, so he can't lead the way for the general."

"However, the little old man has an alternative. I don't know if the general has ever heard a saying: The old cow knows the way?"

"The two cows in my cowshed were driven by my son from Yinping not long ago. They should know the way back."

Zhang Xiu widened his eyes and argued, "Old cows know the way? That's not right, old man, I've only heard of 'old dog knows the way'. Forget it, forget it, how much are your two cows? I'll buy them and let them lead the way."

The old man lifted his skirt, put his hand inside, and signaled Zhang Xiu to put his hand in and bid.

Because cattle and horses share human nature, in the countryside, when the owner intends to sell them, they do not directly say the price, but "touch the price", that is, hide their hands under the clothes and make a price gesture for the other party to touch.

Zhang Xiu was born as a hunter and knew the local customs quite well, so he reached in and made a gesture.

Maybe he was very satisfied with the price given by Zhang Xiu, or maybe he was not, and the old man immediately became frowning: "The general doesn't know, the little old man is old and has trouble with his legs and feet, so he just counts on these two oxen to pull the plow. To transport goods. There are no other people in this area for tens of miles, let alone livestock to buy, if you buy these two cows, the little old man’s family will not be able to survive.”

Good guy, the price has just been raised. Ma Di glanced at the old man, but didn't choose to poke him.

One year after he came to this era, he deeply understood a truth: the superior should have the airs of the superior, no matter whether it is difficult or simple, the subordinates should do it, and never intervene.

Even if you can help your subordinates solve the matter in an instant by taking action yourself, don't take action.

Similar to Zhuge Liang's practice of doing everything by himself, it must never be learned.

Being exhausted is just one of them, the most important thing is that subordinates will become extremely incompetent.

Therefore, Ma Di chose to hug the Qiang girl... Oh no, he just stood on the sidelines with his arms folded.

Seeing that the old man suddenly didn't intend to sell anymore, Zhang Xiu was speechless for a while. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly had an idea and said to the old man, "I'll exchange two horses for your two cows, is that feasible?"

"Two horses can only be exchanged for one ox!" Seeing Zhang Xiu's kindness, the old man chose the lion and opened his mouth.

Zhang Xiu shook his head and insisted: "No, it's too expensive, two horses for two cows!"

The old man smiled and said confidently: "General, there is a big snow mountain a hundred miles ahead. If the general agrees to this price, the old man happens to have a ox-drawn cart at home, and I can give it to the general as well."

Zhang Xiu was stunned: "Then I will buy you a snow cart. As long as a cow can be pulled, so can a horse!"

The old man chuckled: "The general is right, but your horse doesn't know the way."

"Besides, you have to prepare fodder for them, otherwise, they will starve to death in the snow-capped mountains."

"This..." Zhang Xiu glanced at Ma Di begging for help, then gritted his teeth and said, "Three horses for two cows, plus 1000 big money, no more!"

"Agreed, agreed!" The old man was overjoyed, he quickly pulled out the two cows, put them on the snow cart, took the money, put the three horses into the cowshed, and laughed out loud while stroking their short beards.

Zhang Xiu sat in the driver's seat of the snowmobile, waited for Ma Di and Qiangnu to get into the back seat, then waved his whip and drove towards the southeast.

On the way, the Qiang girl looked at the smiling Ma Di frequently, and hesitated to speak for several times.

She felt that three horses were exchanged for two cows... It was really a loss to grandma's family.

However, in the end Qiang girl just sighed and said nothing.

Ma Su was a little disappointed.

He deliberately put on an attitude of "this wave has made money", just to lure the Qiang girl to take the initiative to talk to him, and the two reunited with each other...

The result was a little bit worse.

This damned reserve is simply a natural enemy that hinders human reproduction!
After walking for a while, Zhang Xiu said happily: "General, these two cows are really easy to use. Although they run a little slowly, they are really strong and they walk steadily. The most important thing is that they know the way and don't need me to drive them. You have to move forward on your own.”

Can Baoniu bought with three horses and 1000 yuan be easy to use?
Ma Su stared at the cold-faced Qiang girl from the corner of his eye, and didn't bother to talk to Zhang Xiu.

The road was smooth, and the day passed quickly.

When it was dark again, the snowmobile drove to the foot of the vast snow mountain. Zhang Xiu got off the snowmobile, ran up a small hill to look around, and found that there was smoke rising not far in front of him, so he drove the snowmobile towards it. side walk.

As we got closer, we saw a family with dogs barking one after another.

This time it was a young woman in her 20s who opened the door, followed by a young boy with braids and thick head.She enthusiastically welcomed everyone in and entertained them.

While eating, the young woman glanced at Ma Su and asked the Qiang girl, "Where did the general and his wife come from? Where are they going?"

Hearing this, the Qiang girl who had never spoken all the way blushed and said softly, "We come from the north and go to Yinping."

The young woman said in amazement: "Ma'am, the Baili Snow Mountain is ahead, and the snow is deep on the mountain. It is impossible to rely on these two cows!"

Zhang Xiu interjected, "No way? The old man in the village behind said that cows can pass."

The young lady waved her hand and said, "That's right. Usually, the ox-drawn carts can pass, but it's winter now. The mountains are covered by heavy snow, and the snow is deeper than the oxen. How can we pass? When the oxen go up the mountain, they sink in. General, I won't lie to you." , an ox-drawn sleigh cart will never pass.”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he immediately said angrily: "This old man is very bad! Not only did he exchange two oxen for my three horses, but he also lied to me that the oxen and the cart had covered the snow-capped mountains. How unreasonable, how unreasonable!"

The young woman put her arms around the boy's head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, general, I have a way to let you cross the snowy mountain and go to Yinping."

Zhang Xiu was overjoyed: "What method? Tell me quickly."

The young lady let go of the little boy and whispered a few words to him. The little boy ran to the backyard, opened the door, and four big, strong dogs sprang out.

The young woman stroked the dogs' heads one by one, and said to Zhang Xiu: "General, ox-drawn sleigh carts are hard to cross, but dog-drawn sledges are not difficult. These four dogs can walk like flying on the snow, and the Baili Snow Mountain can be crossed in half a day."

Zhang Xiu stared at the four strong, naive and fierce dogs, and asked hesitantly, "How do you sell these dogs?"

The young lady smiled and shook her head: "One cow is exchanged for one dog, and the general has to pay more for the extra two dogs."

Although he felt that he was at a loss, Zhang Xiu agreed without even thinking about it. The cows that could not pass through the snow-capped mountains were worthless to him, and now it was worth the price of two dogs.

After some bargaining, Zhang Xiu obtained the ownership of the four dogs after paying two cows and 2000 yuan.

When giving the money, the young woman looked at the pile of big money in Zhang Xiu's package, her eyes sparkled, and she suggested: "My family has a business that benefits future generations. I want to talk to the general, but I don't know what the general wants. How about next?"

Zhang Xiu took a careful look at the young woman with a pretty face and a rather slender figure, and was immediately moved.

Glancing at Ma Di, seeing that Ma Di was noncommittal, he followed the young woman to the back room.

Because there is no firewood room, Ma Su and the Qiang girl dealt with it in the side room this time.

He sleeps in bed.Qiang women slept on the wooden shed above him.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, the three of them got up and continued on their way. The four dogs dragged the sleigh and galloped all the way, up and down the hills, like flying on a water craft.

It took only half a day to pass the Daxue Mountain.

As soon as they arrived at a place where there was no snow, the four dogs couldn't bear the weight of three people. They stretched out their tongues, gasped violently, and moved forward with difficulty.

Zhang Xiu had no choice but to get out of the car and walk.

But the dog is still struggling.

Ma Su looked at the Qiang girl and urged, "Why don't you go down for a walk? The dog doesn't move much."

Hearing this, the face scarf on Qiang girl's face pouted into a big bag at a speed visible to the naked eye, and when her long eyelashes drooped, she jumped down resolutely on the railing of the snowmobile with tears in her eyes.

Ma Di quickly pushed her back to the seat, and said with a smile, "Oh, you are unwilling to take two steps, so I'll go down."

As he spoke, he jumped down.

The Qiang girl turned her face away, smiling through tears.

After losing weight again, the running speed of the four dogs immediately increased.

Two big men carried sabers on their shoulders and chased the dog cart all the way, and soon they reached a village.

Ma Di looked at the largest courtyard at the entrance of the village, called Zhang Xiu to him, and said in his ear: "We are already penniless now, you can go to this family to 'borrow' some money, or else you will lose money in the next few days." Bailidi, we are going to starve."

Zhang Xiu nodded repeatedly, and knocked on the door with his sword.

The Qiang girl endured for a while, and finally couldn't help asking: "General, did you make a mistake? We have a total of 20000 yuan, and we spent 1000 yuan on the cow, 2000 yuan on the dog, and another 17000 yuan."

"General, don't you know how to count?"

Ma Di shook his head: "No, you don't understand Zhang Xiu."

Did you live in the main room last night for nothing?

To give money.
