my wife is a consul

Xiaotong's sister married into this tribe, which is why he was sent as a guide.

And her sister should be married well. In this tribe, there is obviously a strict hierarchy in the size of thatched huts. The thatched hut that Xiaotong's brother-in-law lives in is relatively large, and it is much higher than the surrounding huts. It seems that he should be the middle leader of the tribe.

Little Sister Tong was very hospitable. After tinkering for a long time, she produced a pot full of vegetable leaf water, which was unpalatable. Lu Ming could only taste it with his nose pinched, and even gave him a thumbs up to praise.

And when Brother-in-law Xiaotong came back, Lu Ming was stunned.

This bronze-skinned, middle-aged man was actually dressed in the military uniform of a White Sea soldier, but there were a few holes, and there were bloodstains faintly, the kind of traces that had been washed but were difficult to wash off.

At the beginning of the gesticulation and greetings, Lu Ming didn't have anything good, there were two lighters in total, and he had to keep one when he gave one away.

After thinking about it, I took out the compass and gave it to brother-in-law Xiaotong. It is useless, but it looks very beautiful, and it also has a transparent plastic cover.

Sure enough, brother-in-law Xiaotong liked it very much, and played with it for a long time.

Eating steamed buns with local noodles, making gestures and chatting.

Lu Ming found an excuse and pointed to the military uniform on Xiaotong's brother-in-law, meaning to ask where it came from.

Xiao Tong's brother-in-law made gestures, but Lu Ming couldn't quite understand, but Xiao Tong already had a happy face, and gestured with Lu Ming, as if to say that the person Lu Ming was looking for might have appeared in a tribe in a certain direction, and brother-in-law's Clothes are traded from there.

Xiao Tong's brother-in-law seemed to be doting on Xiao Tong's sister, and under the persuasion of that sister, he agreed to accompany Lu Ming to that tribe in a few days.

Seeing him gesturing to the sun in the sky, it seems that it will appear seven or eight times, which is seven or eight days' journey. Moreover, the road seems to be difficult to walk, hard to find, and it is easy to get lost, and finally enter a dead place where there is no grass and die of thirst. An old driver like brother-in-law Xiao Tong led the way.

……

A few days later, Xiao Tong's brother-in-law, Lu Ming called him Da Tong, called Lu Ming, Tuoba Lan and Xiao Hei to set off.

Datong carried a big straw basket, which contained dry food and some tools. In addition, Datong also prepared two throwing bone spears, which were inserted into the straw basket.

Indeed, we have to pass through the smog area again, and it takes five or six days to walk in it.

Only at noon can you faintly see the light in the sky. If you don’t have a mechanical watch, you can only judge the time by this.

There are also some beasts that Lu Ming can't name, which are very different from those on the earth. There is even a huge beast that looks a bit like a prehistoric saber-toothed tiger, but Lu Ming cut its throat with an extremely sharp dagger.

For Lu Ming, these threats are not threats at all, but if there is no one to lead the way, it is very likely that he will be trapped and unable to get out.

After Lu Ming killed the saber-toothed tiger, Da Tong already regarded this foreigner as a heavenly being. From his gestures, it was obvious that he had never encountered such a terrifying creature. If not, he would never dare to go to that big tribe for business again. .

Lu Ming also vaguely understood that Datong was similar to a diplomat and trade officer, who would go to the legendary big tribe every year to conduct transactions and exchange information.

Including intermarriage, going with the same number of girls, bringing back the same number of girls.

They have no scientific knowledge, but from ancient traditions, they probably know that this kind of intermarriage is beneficial to both ethnic groups, so this kind of transaction has always kept its promise, and it will not happen that if you take a girl to be detained by force, you will not be able to bring back the same amount The girl situation happened.

……

Walking out of the smog, the grass basket bulged even more, and there were more animal skins, including the skin of the saber-toothed tiger.

There are boundless deserts and continuous earth hills again. The earth hills are endless and towering into the clouds, but not a single grass grows, as if they have come to the lonely planet in a science fiction work.

But on the Datongling Road, after turning over a few mountains, the scenery in front of it suddenly changed, and it turned out to be an oasis.

From a distance, you can also see the densely packed small black-spotted buildings surrounding the oasis, which are the gathering points of the tribes, and the greenery extending out. Although they are all desert and low shrubs, after walking for a few days in the world of silence, it is here. It seemed to be full of life.

Datong rejoiced, pointing in the direction of the oasis, and even rolled and jumped on the spot. He was middle-aged, but he looked very lively, coming from the tradition of the tribe.

But as he walked, he was getting closer and closer to the settlement, and his big copper eyes showed puzzlement.

In that settlement, black smoke was billowing.

Several people hid in a nearby mound and looked at the situation in the oasis. Xiao Hei seemed to understand that there might be danger, so he didn't make any sound.

"Wait until it gets dark!" Lu Ming pointed to the sun that was gradually fading in the sky, and gestured to Da Tong.

In fact, you can generally understand what happened.

There are many soldiers in the uniform of the White Sea rebels in the oasis, and the thatched huts emitting black smoke have been burned to ashes.

I also saw that there were human heads hanging on a row of wooden stakes at the entrance of the tribe.

It can be guessed that it should be the Baihai rebels who attacked the tribe.

But wait until night to find out.

……

The smog did not have much effect on the moonlight. Today is a bright moon night, and it is probably like the previous life ten 56, the moon is very round.

But Lu Ming still acted, sneaked over, met a five-man patrol team outside the tribe, knocked them all unconscious, and hijacked the team leader to a sand dune.

When he woke up, with a dagger on his neck, Lu Ming asked grimly, "Which branch of the White Sea Guards are you?"

The one who followed Chen Xingchang into the wasteland was the first division of his closest lineage, the Guards.

The team leader was stunned, subconsciously, "The young one, the young one is the company commander of the second battalion and third company of the third regiment of the first division, and the young one's name is Liu Deshui."

Lu Ming nodded and replied with a simple sentence, which actually exposed the embarrassment of Chen Xingchang's remnants. The company commander even took a few soldiers on patrol, which shows that the reduction in personnel should be extremely serious.

"Why did you attack this tribe?" Lu Ming exerted a little force on the hand holding the dagger.

The neck hurts, Liu Deshui was so scared that he almost peed his pants, and begged for mercy, "It's not a small matter, the small one is just an errand, the president thinks that this place is rich, and wants to move the presidential palace here, the barbarians here I disagree, so I made a move."

"Chen Xingchang is here?" Lu Ming pondered.

Such a region has become the best presidential residence, these people are really at the end of the road.

Over there, Liu Deshui nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Where is Ma Quanyou sweating profusely? Is it far from here?"

Liu Deshui made a bitter face: "It's far away, but I don't know the details of the small ones. There are no birds here..." Shocked and hurried back, "The small ones here don't know the south, east, north, and west at all!"

"Well, how many of your White Sea Guards have safely entered this wasteland? Where's Ma Quanyou Khan's cavalry? How many are there?" Lu Ming asked again.

"Young one..." There was a sudden pain in the neck, as if the skin had been punctured and blood seeped out. Liu Deshui was so frightened that his heart was terrified, and he cried out: "I really don't know clearly, but I heard the discussions of the superiors. Our White Navy probably gathered more than 3000 people in the end. I heard from the superiors that there seemed to be more people on Ma Quanyou's side, but most of the horses were lost... The young ones really don't know..." Almost crying.

Lu Ming nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "Take me to see Chen Xingchang later, and say that after Sanyuan Khan, he came here from the grassland after going through a lot of hardships, please ask Marshal Chen Xingchang to send someone to take us to see Sanyuan Khan. "

Liu Deshui didn't understand, but just nodded repeatedly.

Lu Ming tied his hands and feet, went to the mound where Tuobalan, Xiaohei and others were hiding, and told Tuobalan the general situation, and asked her to wait before turning around.

At this time, Liu Deshui was shocked, and he also realized the meaning of what Lu Ming said to him. Lu Ming let go of the rope and asked cautiously: "So, it turns out that the Khan Queen of the Grassland has arrived. Then, miss, you are Khan Queen's personal guard." gone?"

Lu Ming nodded: "You can also say that."

Liu Deshui immediately admired: "No wonder you are so powerful and beautiful..." Seeing Lu Ming frowning at him, he was too scared to say anything, but he led Lu Ming to the settlement, and still secretly glanced at Lu Ming from time to time, His eyes were very hot.

Lu Ming is helpless, and knows that these guys are now sows who can compete with Diaochan, not to mention, his women's clothing should have a bit of unique charm.

It is said that she is not tall, but compared with those few bodies, she is actually about 1.7 meters tall. She has a heroic face and strong muscles. Thinking about some female fitness coaches in her previous life, she is also very attractive.

It's just a male voice, I deliberately changed it, like a male duck's voice.

The main thing is that I can't look at myself in the mirror and feel sick, so I didn't deliberately uglify myself into a flower or something.

……

The largest thatched house complex in the center of the settlement should have been the residence of the patriarch in the past, and now it has become the "Presidential Residence".

Lu Ming was personally interviewed by Chen Xingchang.

The local grass oil and lanterns lit in the dark thatched cottage must have been brought over by the Baihai rebels.

Chen Xingchang is actually young, in his 30s, and was once selected by the Long family as an agent to end Qi Huaide's rule in northern Xinjiang. He has his own courage.

He is a handsome and steady middle-aged man, but it is a pity that he was born at an untimely time. If he just betrayed Qi Huaide, he would be able to compete for the hegemony in Northern Xinjiang, and even the chances of winning are great. However, Qi Huaide has the full support of the Principality of Montenegro. Under the attack of arms and tactics, the army was defeated and had to flee into this wild land.

In fact, the so-called "presidential palace" here is just an excuse. It is nothing more than seeing that this is a rare land of fish and rice in the desert. It is not enough to just suppress these tribes to collect taxes, and it is just to grab his own territory.

"Miss Wang, are you and Queen Khan coming here alone?" Chen Xingchang was very polite, even facing a maid was like facing an old friend, which made people feel close.

Lu Ming thought to himself that this guy is indeed a character, he shook his head and said, "It's not me and Queen Han, there are also partners, a cow named Xiao Hei, and a local guide named Da Tong."

"Oh, buddy...a bull?" Chen Xingchang laughed dumbfounded, apparently finding this heroic maid very interesting.

"What about Queen Khan, why didn't you come? Do you have any concerns?" Chen Xingchang obviously had no problem holding up a female guard in terms of language.

Of course, Lu Ming has ten thousand ways to deal with it, but at this time he can only play tricks, and he can't appear to be too cunning. He said, "The Queen of Khan is nearby. I don't know what's going on here. Send me to take a look."

Chen Xingchang smiled and said: "Sure, then shall we go to meet Empress Tuoba Khan?"

"Okay!" Lu Ming nodded.

In fact, I gradually felt that this place might be the edge of the barren land.

The tribes of Big Copper and Small Copper are closer to the center of the wasteland, but they should also belong to the periphery.

I went the wrong way, and with Xiao Hei's guidance, I arrived at the outskirts of the wasteland smoothly.

The remnants of Chen Xingchang and Ma Quanyou's rebel army did not pass through the death zone surrounded by smog for seven or eight days, but only reached the edge.

Otherwise, they should be in awe of this land, and they wouldn't shout and kill without hesitation.

In the beginning, they could still trade with the people here with the military uniforms stripped off the corpses of the downsizing soldiers. It didn't take long before the butcher's knife was lit.

Thank you President Su for rewarding the leader again, bow!
