Xia Xun strode closer to Miaoyi, and said in a low voice, "It's possible that someone is coming at me, I'll go back to the village to hide first!"

There are reeds here, but they only grow close to the lakeside. Although they are dense, they are not wide, and they can be easily searched out.As for the tall Populus euphratica tree, the tree is ten feet high, but there is a piece of yellow sand under the tree, and there is no way to hide people.Not to mention in the desert, not only is there nowhere to hide, but also the terrain is similar, so it is easy to get lost. According to Suleiman, unfamiliar people will get lost if they go in and walk casually. They may not be able to get here all the way. You can no longer go back to the depths of the desert.

As for the small village... In fact, Xia Xun's most concerned place is the place where the merchants are stationed. The village may not be easier to hide than here, and there are many Han people here, but it is too obvious in the village.But in view of Miaoyi's hostility towards him, Xia Xun put forward this idea in order to retreat.

Sure enough, Miao Yi softened her heart when she heard what he said, and said, "No, it's even more eye-catching when you are there. Li Bie, quickly bring two sets of clothes and change them for them!"

"Yes!" These guards have seen a lot of people, so they are not surprised. Upon hearing Madam's order, the guard named Li Bie rushed to a tent immediately.

Xia Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said to Laqin, "Laqin, go back to the village and tell everyone that if anyone interrogates, say that no stranger has ever been in the village! Otherwise, you will be killed!"

Laqin blinked his big eyes and looked at him curiously, not understanding what he was talking about. Xia Xun stomped his feet anxiously. After murmuring a few words, Laqin opened his eyes wide in surprise, nodded vigorously, spread his legs and ran away.

"Master General, we are merchants in the past. Speaking of which, the goods we sell and buy are also produced in your country. Hahaha... We are all businessmen, we just do business to make money, and we don't mix other things. , We absolutely do not have strangers here, let alone take in strangers."

The leaders of several business groups surrounded a general dressed in Turkic style, and two teams of Tiemuer soldiers held spears and knives, guarding the front and back with a murderous look.The general was striding forward, and they trotted beside him. One of the businessmen was talking, and secretly stuffed a bundle of things into the general's hand, wrapped in cloth, and the hand sank, either gold or silver.

Today, the leaders of the merchant groups are drinking in the tent of a merchant surnamed Jing. After discussing some details about the departure tomorrow, a group of cavalry suddenly came from a distance. I set up a salon in the desert, I couldn't help but be shocked by the momentum, and rushed into the tent to report.

Because there are no villages or shops behind this section of the commercial road, and there is no way to grab enough living supplies to support such a large population, so limited by the living environment here, horse bandits with more than a thousand people are very rare, in fact, there is no such thing, so this The team of horse thieves on Duan Shang Road cannot be too large, so when they heard that there were at least 2000 people, the leaders of the business groups were shocked.

They didn't know it was Timur's army until they rushed to the front.The desert is vast, and it is divided into three directions, but only Timur is actually stationed here, so it is not surprising that his army appears here.The leaders of the business group immediately let go of their half-heartedness. As long as it is an army that belongs to a political force, it is better than horse thieves.

"What...who, stop!"

Seeing that the Ying family's caravan was at the place, the two courtyard guards drew their swords halfway and went up to meet them.Judging by their stern faces, it is clear that they are afraid of the opponent's strength, but it is only their duty, but they have to bite the bullet and come forward.

"Go away!"

Two Timur cavalry disdainfully pushed the two blunt bastards aside to clear the way for their general.

The two guards staggered to the side, watching them rushing past in an extremely domineering way.

Ying Zhan's face was rosy from drinking, and he followed the cavalry general of the Tiemu'er Empire with a smile. When he saw the two guards who were pushed aside, Ying Zhan couldn't help being slightly taken aback.There are more than 100 guardian warriors he brought with him. Of course, he may not be able to name all of these people, but most of them are familiar with each other. These two warriors...

Ying Zhan glanced at them suspiciously, and then glanced at the other guards of the Ying family standing aside. He knew that there must be something wrong, so he didn't dare to say anything. other people's eyes.

In fact, no one would recognize Xia Xun and Liu Yujue even if he didn't need to block them. Yu Jian did recognize Xia Xun, but when he deliberately leaked the news to Hu Shangtuoba Mingde, he said that his identity was just a hundred-family official in Ganliang If he is able to tell and draw the face of the Duke, it may be self-defeating. Not only does Tuoba Mingde not believe his words, but he also thinks that he has been seen through by him. This is a deliberate design to frame and kill his own people.

What's more, as long as there are no special marks on the face, what can you say by dictating a few words?As for painting, even if every student in modern times learns to paint at school, how many people can draw with a brush to make people come to life?Not to mention that in that era, and Yu Jian was only fluent in writing and ink.

As Tuoba Mingde's "favored" chief steward, Yu Jian is following Tuoba Mingde's side closely. Although Xia Xun now has a big beard on his face, if he is asked to take a closer look, he might be shocked, because He could still recognize it, but he didn't pay attention to the two nursing homes of the Ying family, especially Xia Xun and Liu Yujue who came up first to prevent them from entering the territory of the Ying family. up.

The general of the Tiemu'er Empire passed through the camp until he reached the end of this side, then stopped suddenly, glanced at the path in the reeds ahead, and said coldly: "Is there a small village in front of this? Send a team People, search for me!" Immediately, a group of soldiers aggressively chased along the trail where Laqin had just escaped. They spread out and searched the reeds together, and found reed flowers flying and wild birds jumping wildly.

The general pressed his knife, turned around and glanced at the leaders of the business group, and said with a murderous tone: "You have never seen anyone who fled, let alone took anyone in, huh? If there are lies, Once we find it, all of you here will die!"

"Master General, we have come all the way, and we have never met any strangers. They are all from the caravan, and we will continue our journey tomorrow morning!" Tuoba Mingde said with a smile, and pulled the general's hand again. Sleeve: "Master General, please take a step to speak!" As he spoke, he pulled the general aside.

Of course, Tuoba Mingde was sure that his team would never accept any strangers, but he never expected that just a moment ago, two strangers had become members of their joint business group.

He also used this business trip to completely win the trust of these Shazhou tycoons. When the Ming army wants to fortify the walls and clear the country, and move all the soldiers and civilians of the Shazhou back to Jiayuguan, he will take advantage of the opportunity to withdraw with them to fulfill his wishful thinking. Now it is rare for his own people to kill How could he not make good use of this good opportunity to sell everyone's favors.

Therefore, Mr. Tuoba Mingde stood up decisively and avoided disaster for everyone.

The leaders of several business groups saw that Tuoba Mingde pulled the general aside and muttered something. They didn't know that Tuoba Mingde was showing his identity to the other party, asking the other party not to interfere with their actions, and to stand by their side. position, I saw Tuoba Mingde constantly bowing and bowing, laughing and talking, his big sleeves moved from time to time, and he climbed onto the general's arm, as if he was offering a heavy gift, as if he was trying to buy him off.

The two stood there chatting for a long time, and then they walked back together. The Timur cavalry general said proudly: "Come on, spread out, and search their tents!"

At this time, although his attitude was arrogant, compared with the previous cold and stern tone, it was obviously relaxed.All the leaders of the business group are good at observing the appearance. How could they not know that it was Tuoba Mingde who moved the general, and they couldn't help but cast grateful glances at him. Tuoba Mingde just smiled modestly, without complacency The appearance of taking credit, this attitude has won the unanimous favor of the leaders of the business groups.

So, Tie Mu'er's soldiers searched the entire place where the merchant group was stationed. They passed by Xia Xun from time to time, searching hard for Xia Xun.

In fact, along the way, this team of Timur cavalry has already wiped out a team of horse thieves that they ran into, and a business group that was smaller than the team in front of them from Xierding. Blocking the murderer, the Buddha blocking the killing of the Buddha, I would rather kill the wrong one than let it go!

Yes, they are the army, they will not kill innocent people like horse thieves, and business trips are only good for them, but that is normal.The person to be killed this time is really important. Right now, the whereabouts of this person is unknown, and his life and death are uncertain. Maybe he has been buried in the desert, which is naturally the best, but since he is not sure, then kill everyone he sees, it will be safe up.

When the general rushed to this oasis, he saw the scale from a distance and knew that the merchant group here was relatively powerful. If he insisted on killing it, the merchants would fight desperately, and his own casualties would be quite large. He originally planned to pretend to search The fugitives waited until their own troops took control of the entire camp before killing them suddenly. As a result, because of the lovely Mr. Tuoba Mingde, the business group escaped in a daze.

"what!"

Suddenly, a woman screamed from a tent, and a soldier ran out after a woman. The general's eyes lit up when he saw the woman's beauty. The soldier suddenly drew his sword, crossed it in front of him, and blocked him. Ying Zhan said anxiously: "Master General, that is the villain's wife, please let her go!"

The commander of the Tiemu'er cavalry stared at the bright and charming young woman in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and waved his hand reluctantly.

If it wasn't for Tuoba Mingde's official position that was much higher than him, even if these people in front of him were not killed, he would not let such a coveted woman go.As soon as the soldier saw that the leader had spoken, he gave up chasing Miao Yi, and Miao Yi fled back to the tent in a hurry.

When the camp was turned into a mess, all the boxes and cages were opened, and the Timur soldiers took the opportunity to hide a lot of property, a team of people who searched the small village also came back. The simple villagers have lived here for generations. A family is average, Xiao Laqin fled back in time, everyone agreed, of course they couldn't find anything.

The residents of this small village share the same faith as the army of Tie Mu'er's direct line, and the villagers' looks are relatively obvious, with nose augmentation and deep eyes. It is by no means a Han Chinese can pretend to be, so there is no need to massacre the village, so the small village was lucky to escape Doomed.

The general stared greedily at the felt tent where Miao Yi was, and waved resentfully: "Go! Continue to search!"

p: During the coding period, I wanted to boil some water to make tea. I felt a dull pain in my index finger when holding the hand pot. It seemed that I had lost the strength to lift the pot. It’s strange, isn’t it so weak?Presumably the code word hurt the tendons!Guan Guan raised his index finger, tears streaming down his face: "Ask for a ticket! Ask for a ticket! Ask for a monthly ticket!"
