Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!
Chapter 321: The Western Pegasus Demon City
It was exactly the same as Chen Yulou's guess.
It didn't even take half an hour.
A series of neighing, sneezing, the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground, and loud talking came from outside the yurt.
Without waiting for a few people to stand up.
The wooden door wrapped in felt was pushed open from the outside, and the tall Toul, wearing a felt hat and covered in cold air, strode in.
The excitement could not be concealed on his rough face.
"Brother Chen, we have gathered sixteen highland horses, all of them are first-class breeds. Let's go out and take a look?"
Once inside.
Tours had no time to rest.
He simply took the butter tea handed to him by his wife Aigu, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, wiped it with his backhand, and laughed loudly at the people in the room.
"it is good."
There was no way Chen Yulou would delay.
He greeted everyone.
Follow him out.
Because it snowed last night, the sky and the earth were covered in white. After a brief discomfort, I looked up and saw that the open space outside the house was as noisy as a busy market.
There are big horses, some snow-white and some chestnut.
Being held in someone's hand.
All of them held their heads high.
Although he didn't say anything, his expression said it all.
“It’s really a plateau horse.”
Just a glance.
Chen Yulou's last bit of worry disappeared.
The Chen family has a horse farm, and over the years, he has sent people to collect countless horses from all over the place.
Hequ, Ganzi, Lichuan, Datong and Yanglongkeng.
Almost all of them are horse-breeding lands in successive dynasties.
He also has his own way of judging horses.
Judging a horse is just like judging a person. It actually depends on three points: shape, position and aura.
The so-called shape refers to the appearance of the horse, a tall and big horse, strong limbs, hair like oil, flying mane, and a smooth body.
And position refers to the position of the five senses, muscles and bones.
You won't lose your direction while running.
As for Qi, in short, it is the horse's momentum.
There is a record in the Zhou Li that "a horse over eight feet long is a dragon, one over seven feet long is a horse, and one over six feet long is a horse."
You can tell the temperament of a fierce horse at a glance.
The fur is as fiery as fire and looks stunning.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a ferocious beast.
This kind of horse is suitable for fighting on the battlefield.
Just like the dragon colt he rode, it was not only because it came from a dragon-breeding pit, but more importantly because its aura was like that of a dragon. Most people would be intimidated by its aura even if they got close to it, let alone ride it.
At that time, it was to tame it.
Chen Yulou put a lot of thought into it.
The same is true of Red Girl's Qinghong horse.
The temperament is similar to that of its master, as fierce as fire.
People with a warm temperament have calm eyes and are naturally weaker in aura. After just one glance, people will subconsciously avoid looking away.
The horse that was sent now.
Almost without exception, they have a menacing aura and a tall stature, and just standing there gives people an indescribable sense of shock.
"These horses are fierce enough. I like them."
Look at those horses.
The red girl's expression was also full of surprise.
There is a chestnut horse in particular, which should have some Arabian horse bloodline. Even among such an amazing group of horses, it stands out from the crowd.
swagger.
A pair of eyes were like dragon eyes, scanning the surroundings with disdain.
It is not inferior to her Qinghong at all.
She was attracted by him almost at first sight.
"No wonder they say the Western Regions have been rich in BMWs since ancient times. This time I've seen it for myself."
Yang Fang glanced over and became more and more delighted the more he looked.
Compared to camels, he still prefers the feeling of riding a horse across the world and galloping across the battlefield.
It is unbelievable that such a small village with only a dozen households could produce so many purebred horses.
"That black-tailed horse is good, and looks strong. Kunlun, it suits you."
The old foreigner pointed at one of them.
Suddenly he said to Kunlun.
Look in the direction of his finger.
I saw that one horse was extremely tall, half a body length taller than the surrounding horses. And while the other horses were pacing back and forth and neighing constantly, it just lowered its head and chewed grass quietly.
See this.
Kunlun's eyes couldn't help but light up.
To be honest, he was indeed somewhat tempted. Unlike Hong Gu, he had only one request for the horse.
As long as you can support yourself.
It doesn't matter whether he is fierce or gentle.
After all, even if it was a tiger or a leopard, he could catch it and ride it as a horse if he wanted.
Tearing tigers and leopards apart alive is no joke.
Even a monster couldn't bear it with just one slap.
"It's really good."
nodded.
Kunlun rarely spoke.
"Brother Chen, how is it, are you satisfied with these Markos?"
"If that doesn't work, I'll go ask other tribes for you."
Walk back from the crowd.
Tur asked Chen Yulou with a smile on his face.
"No need, I'm already very satisfied."
Chen Yulou shook his head.
To be honest, the quality and appearance of these horses were far beyond his expectations.
"That's fine, that's fine."
Tur was originally worried that the horses they received would not meet their requirements.
Now I hear this.
My heart finally settled down.
"By the way, I discussed with everyone and decided that one horse is worth one pound of salt. Brother Chen, you gave a total of 50 to 60 pounds of snowflake salt, which is more than half too much."
"Please take back the rest."
Toole continued.
There was a hint of uneasiness in his expression.
Fine flake salt.
He had never seen anything like it in his life.
When it was taken out, all the villagers were shocked, even the most knowledgeable wizard, who said that only the big men in faraway cities like Dihua, Yili and Shache were qualified to enjoy it.
A pound of salt is absolutely a sky-high price.
Just change the horse.
To be honest, in his opinion, his tribesmen definitely made a lot of money.
He was also worried that Chen Yulou and others would think they were too greedy.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as he said "a pound of salt for a horse", everyone who was still looking at the horses with great interest suddenly turned back.
Looking at him with an incredible look.
"This... one pound of salt is really too high. Otherwise, half a pound will be fine."
Toor's heart sank.
I complained secretly in my heart.
I should have been tougher when we were negotiating the price just now. The Kezi people have been hospitable since ancient times. How could they do such a thing?
after all.
He just escaped death.
Isn't this adding insult to injury?
Swallowing his saliva, Tour hastened to make amends.
"no……"
"You may have misunderstood us. These are fine horses that can travel a hundred miles a day. How can they be sold at such a low price?"
"Besides, there is no reason to take back the salt and gold that have been given away. I would like to trouble Brother Tour to divide them properly. Otherwise, we will not feel at ease."
Looking at the eagle-like man.
Because of a pound or half a pound of salt, he showed such anxiety and uneasiness.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"This……"
Tour was stunned.
Fifty or sixty kilograms of snowflake salt, and so much gold, just for sixteen horses.
"If you really feel bad about it."
"Do you have kumis?"
Seeing him standing there in a daze, with his mouth open but unable to utter a word, Chen Yulou could not help but shake his head and smile.
After entering the Western Regions.
Most of what they drank along the way was kumis. He was not used to it at first, but now he craves it.
It has a lot of staying power.
Take a sip and you won’t feel the cold at all even if you are traveling in the freezing cold.
"Kumbre?"
"Yes, yes, yes, there is plenty. The thing we Kezi people have the most is wine. Brother Chen, as long as you can carry it, you can take as much as you want."
Toor's eyes lit up.
He was not afraid of Chen Yulou asking, he was just afraid that they would not want anything.
While talking.
He seemed to remember something.
He walked quickly to the tribesmen and said a few simple words. In an instant, everyone's face was filled with excitement. They patted their chests, and the anxious ones turned around and left.
It didn't take long.
The sealed kumis piled up like a mountain.
It was several times more than what they took away from Kunmo City that day.
Chen Yulou had never expected that his casual remark would cause such a sensation.
It’s not easy to refuse everyone’s kindness.
So each family just took two bags.
"That's not enough, Brother Chen. Mare's milk is cheap. Just take it. It will warm you up along the way."
"enough."
He signaled Kunlun and Yang Fang to move the wine and drinks onto the horses.
Chen Yulou then tendered his resignation.
"Thank you very much, Brother Tur, for your hospitality. We are in a hurry to leave, so we won't stay any longer."
"Looking at the weather, there will probably be another heavy snowfall before dark. We can't delay any longer."
"Why don't you stay a few more days?"
Tour obviously didn't expect them to leave so soon, and he became anxious.
The clan leader has agreed on everything.
In the evening, they slaughtered a few cattle and sheep, called all the villagers, young and old, and lit a bonfire to welcome the guests from afar.
"Chen wants to, too."
"It's just that the journey is too long and we really can't delay it."
Feeling the enthusiasm of these Kezi people, Chen Yulou wanted to stay overnight. He was already tired enough during this period of time, and it was a good opportunity to experience the customs and culture of a different ethnic group.
But the trip to East Kunlun.
At most, there are only six or seven days.
Hong Girl and the others didn't know how terrifying the Kunlun Palace was, but he knew it very well.
After entering the mountain.
The journey was full of dangers.
If you want to save time, you can only do it on the road.
"This……"
Tours hesitated.
Finally gritted his teeth.
"Then I'll go and tell the clan leader and the others."
As he was speaking, he turned around and walked away, walked up to an old man with white hair and beard, and whispered something to him. The people around him all looked surprised.
Spoken to Toole.
Then he returned again.
"The clan leader said that we Kezi people have our own rules for doing things."
"Since Brother Chen is determined to leave, please give us a chance. The future is dangerous. At least let me escort you out of the forbidden land of Tianshan Mountain."
"Forbidden place?"
Chen Yulou frowned slightly.
It was only after Tur's explanation that he finally understood that the Kizil people regarded Kunlun Mountain as a sacred mountain, and except when offering sacrifices to the gods, people were not allowed to enter or leave the mountain easily.
There are several forbidden areas among them.
According to Bakshi's guidance, demons were suppressed there.
If you rush in rashly, you will most likely end up dead.
