Chapter 13 The Guide of Young People—Lao Yangpi

If it is said that the beautiful little girls in the tribe always belong to Khan, then the best young man in the tribe belongs to Lao Yangpi, the guide of young people.

Whenever the singer moves the harp with her snow-white slender fingers, and whenever the troubadours sing "The Legend of Oguz" to praise the ancestors of the Huihe people, a figure will appear next to the bravest boy in the tribe. Little old man.

"You are an eagle. It's time to leave the nest and take flight. A small tribe cannot tolerate a hero like you."

"You are the most intelligent young man I have ever seen. Hurry up and get out of this swamp that will make you filthy all your life. I will follow and help you to achieve great feats like King Oguz."

"You are a real warrior, and a real warrior should not sleep with a big-tailed sheep. Leave here, and I will take you to find the most beautiful woman on the grassland, and guide your hands to caress those smooth, warm and snow-white bodies , only when you gallop on them, you will feel that you are a real samurai."

"Ah, young Huihe people, how can you bear the life of herding sheep day after day, night after night?
You should ride a horse and lead countless warriors to the battlefield to seek your glory. You should be the one who attracts attention, instead of being scolded and beaten by those incompetent people like marmots in the tribe all day long. torture you and humiliate you. "

"Come with me, there's nothing in your tribe but lice that drink blood and eat flesh, go outside and see, where the sun shines is gold, you just get there, grab your shovel, push hard, Yes, just shovel it down hard, and the gold belongs to you..."

The above are the special words that Lao Yangpi uses to target all the young people he likes in the Huihe tribe.

Some teenagers packed up their things hastily after listening to a passage, and followed Lao Yangpi away.

Such a young man would usually be sent by Lao Yangpi to the battle cage to try his luck. If he died in the battle, the people of Shi Country would give Lao Yangpi a bag of gold sand. If he was lucky enough to win, Lao Yangpi could get more.

Some young people followed Lao Yangpi after listening to two paragraphs. After a long time, people might see him in the harem of a certain king. At that time, he was wearing gorgeous clothes and shining gems. Nestling in the arms of the king, he sang large passages of "The Legend of Oguz" for the guests with a sharp voice.

Others have become horse thieves... The reason why there are so many horse thieves and robbers in the north and south of Tianshan Mountain is the dedication of Lao Yangpi.

Yun Chu in the Aries Department is like the moonlight in the dark night, the lightning in the dark clouds, Lao Yangpi will not let him go.

When Yunchu was eight years old, Lao Yangpi caught his eye. He wanted Yunchu to go with him, and he repeated the words he had prepared a long time ago, but he couldn't move Yunchu's determination. heart of.

If it was an ordinary Huihe people, Lao Yangpi would have given up. After all, it is not surprising that there are one or two smart people in such a huge ethnic group.

However, Lao Yangpi did not give up on Yunchu, and would come to the Aries Department every other month, and continue to entice Yunchu to follow him. For this reason, he did not hesitate to end himself, and taught Yunchu a lot.

Lao Yangpi is a wise man. He knows that as long as he keeps investing, he will gain more from Yunchu one day.

Yunchu also thinks so... He thinks what he learned from Lao Yangpi is very important to him, especially speaking Chang'an official dialect, writing Tang characters with a brush, and learning Tang etiquette...

By studying with Lao Yangpi, Yunchu discovered that Lao Yangpi's understanding of Datang is not comparable to that of a person who knows Datang from history books.

He likes to learn from Lao Yangpi.

After five years, Yunchu's learning speed is very fast, even far exceeding Lao Yangpi's expectations.

Recently, Lao Yangpi couldn't bear it anymore. In fact, three years ago, Lao Yangpi hoped that Yunchu would go with him.

Now, what Yunchu is not sure about is whether Lao Yangpi is going to send him into a battle cage or become a horse thief, but judging from Lao Yangpi's investment in him, the target should be—— Datang.

Even so, Yunchu couldn't help trembling when he heard Jie Siga mentioning the battle cage selection, while Naha burst into tears.

Stone Country's war cage selection is famous throughout the Western Regions. On the banks of the Yaoshashui River outside Zhezhi City, Stone King's Court, there will always be a huge iron cage five meters long, five meters wide, and three meters high. The cage is covered with murderous iron spikes.

Whenever a warrior from other places rings the iron bell next to the iron cage, the court of King Stone will send a brave soldier into the battle cage.

Warriors from other places need to enter the iron cage and kill the warriors sent by Shiguo with bare hands. If they defeat this warrior, he can replace this warrior from Shiguo and become a new Shiguo warrior!

Once you become a soldier of the Stone Kingdom, you can get a lot of treasures, beautiful women, and a beautiful garden.

If it fails, there is only one end-death!

For warriors in the Western Regions, the selection of battle cages is the fastest way to make a fortune, and at the same time, it is also the closest path to death.

Over the years, countless warriors have died in battle cages.

Among the people who died, [-]% were challengers ten years ago, and [-]% were challengers five years ago. Now, it is said that more than [-]% of the people who died were challengers.

This is an inevitable result, and it is estimated that it is also a strategy of the king of Shi Kingdom to recruit warriors. The force of his own soldiers is getting higher and higher, and the force of warriors who can defeat their own soldiers must also be higher and higher. Finally, it reaches a critical point Points, such as now, it has been a long time since no one has been able to challenge successfully.

Therefore, the warriors of the Stone Kingdom are the most powerful group of warriors in the Western Regions.

A person who is unwilling to stay in the original tribe, especially a samurai, has not many options for survival.

Leaving the original tribe, it is extremely difficult to go to other tribes to survive, and there is no way to gain trust.

One of the most reliable ways to survive is to be a horse thief, relying on plundering ordinary shepherds, caravans, and camel teams to survive.

Under normal circumstances, in the Western Regions where there were so many thieves, one had to be prepared to fight every day to become a horse thief. A young man like Yunchu's age would die in battle or be killed by his companions if he didn't live for a few days.

The other is to go to Shi Country to participate in the battle cage selection. Being a horse thief is a matter of narrow escape, but participating in the battle cage selection is a choice of ten deaths.

Yunchu didn't even have the slightest idea of ​​challenging the battle cage! ! !

The precise education he had received told him that challenging the battle cage was the most unsuitable way for him to make a fortune.

The brain is a good thing. A person who lived more than 300 years later went to the second year of Yonghui in the Tang Dynasty. In order to get rich and live a good life, he abandoned his brain and used it to compare brute force with others. What a stupid act! .

"I'm not going to Zhezhi City, my goal is Kucha City!"

Jie Siga looked at Yun Chu with a puzzled expression and said in a low voice, "You really want to go to Tang Ren."

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Is there a possibility that I am a Tang native?"

Jie Sika shook his head and said, "You don't know how to speak the language of Tang people, they won't admit that you are from Tang people."

Yunchu immediately said in the standard Tang Dynasty official language: "Of course I can speak the words of the Tang people. Not only can I speak, but I can also recite the articles of the Tang people."

Although Jie Siga didn't know what Yun Chu said, he could hear it clearly. These were the standard Tang people's words. He had heard such words when he followed the Tang army as a servant to fight against the Xue Yantuo people.

Shocked and shocked, Jie Sika thought of the Tang people's battle flag fluttering, majestic, and murderous army, still shook his head and said: "It's no use if you can speak the Tang people's language, at most you can be a Huihe who can speak the Tang people's language!"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "We'll talk about it when I see Lao Yangpi."

Jie Sika seemed unwilling to talk too much with Yunchu, picked up Naha, pointed to a bay red horse tied to the water tank, and said, "This is a two-year-old war horse, I found it for you from the royal court. Yes, the scimitar, bow and arrow are all ready for you, if you want to go, you can go at any time."

Yun Chu bowed down to express his thanks, "Jie Sika, thank you for preparing these things for me."

Jaska shook his head and pointed to the bewildered Selema, "You should be lucky to be Selema's son."

Yun Chu thought for a while, and felt that what he said seemed to be correct, so he nodded his thanks again and said, "Take care of Seraima and Naha."

Jie Siga said proudly: "They will be the women in my big Abo tent from now on, who dares to hurt them?

If you can't survive outside, you can come back, and I will arrange for you something suitable for a samurai. "

"cloud……"

Selema wanted to talk, but without waiting for her to say more, Jaska dragged Selema towards his tent with the crying Naha in his arms.

Watching them go away, Yunchu came to the edge of the renovated firepit, boiled a pot of dandelion tea, threw a few black plums into it, and waited quietly for the water to boil.

Yunchu still accepts the attitude of Jie Sika, who has just been promoted and made a fortune, towards him.

As a big oil bottle, to be treated like this by his mother's new love, it can be said that Jaska has done everything he can.

When the water boiled, the dandelion tea was ready. Yun Chu picked up the wooden bowl and took a sip of the bitter tea.

In the 13 years in the Western Regions, the things he couldn't let go of the most were Serema and Naha. Now, Serema has a new man, and Naha has returned to the embrace of his biological father. Yunchu sincerely thanked Jie Sika .

Squinting his eyes to look at the bay red horse tied to the post, Yun Chu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At this moment, he even felt that God's arrangement was really very, very considerate sometimes.

From this moment on, I can finally return to my hometown, and I can go to see the Tang Dynasty, which is like a paradise in the herdsman's mouth.
