Time Traveling Routine Movie King
Chapter 115 Overnight at the Castle
Stayed in Xiping City for one night, and Shen Bai decided to set off for Fengcheng the next morning.
Seeing that Xiao Mo couldn't persuade him, he had to send someone overnight to inform Li Lu and ask him to respond.
Going down the Yellow River along Xiping Mansion, you can pass by today's Lanzhou.
The rushing Yellow River has not completely thawed at this time, and a large amount of river water mixed with ice seems to be motionless, and the number of business travelers along the way has dropped significantly.
From time to time, sergeants on patrol watched their brigade pass by.
The former army had already changed into the clothes of the imperial army to clear the way, and many villages were even deserted. Shen Bai looked at the other side of the Yellow River, and a big tree with withered branches and leaves stood guard on the other side, watching the tranquility of the big river alone.
Because they were on their way and there was no place to stay along the way, they had to rest in a nearby deserted village.
Many small-scale caravans looked at so many of them, and chose to hang behind them not far or near, in order to be safe.
At the junction of the two prefectures at night, the former army came back and said that there was only a deserted castle in front.
"Go to the old castle to spend the night." Shen Bai looked at the moonlight and said.
The ancient castle under the moonlight guards a piece of loess alone, and the cold wind blows, bringing up a cloud of dust.
"Go in quickly, the caravan behind will also let them in to hide." Shen Bai ordered, Dama and all the troops went there together.
Part of the yellow wall that has collapsed is like a crawling giant. The soil layer on the tower of the castle is mottled as if it is about to collapse at any time. The huge open space and a few buildings inside just occupy the position of the castle alone.
"Master, the inside of the castle is full of clean yellow sand, we are cleaning it up." Daniel came to report.
"Don't clean it up, let's do it like this." Shen Bai said, and led Leng Shaojun who drove up and down in the car to go there.
"Look carefully, be careful that there are poisonous insects in the sand." The military leader who led the way commanded the people to check, and there were still unfaded murals on the half wall of the huge house.
Sergeants stood at the windows, high towers on the outer wall, improvised defenses and archers were on guard.
The caravan behind was notified and thanked Dade for following in.
There was a strong wind outside, and the dust flying all over the sky could be seen through the bright moon.
Shen Bai looked at the dust high in the sky, and then at the huge and bright moon above the dust, he couldn't help feeling emotional.
It was very cold in the Gobi at night, and the merchants were housed in another building, and their mules and horses were gathered behind the house. Because of the rigid demand of commerce, the number of merchants who followed was about 200.
The fifty guides sent by Qianhu and Xiao Mo were divided into ten groups and guarded the surroundings.
"Is this place already very dangerous?" Sitting in front of the bonfire, looking at the dried mutton simmering in the iron pan, Shen Bai asked Qianhu who was leading the way.
"Reporting to the lord, the party members will harass this area from time to time in order to interfere with our army's supplies, but the lord can rest assured that first, they will not come too many people each time, so as not to target too much. Second, the wind is strong tonight, and the sky is full of wind and sand. , and they won't come easily."
Shen Bai nodded, took out the flax cakes prepared in advance, and put them on the fire to roast.
The flax cake made a sizzling sound when heated, and the heat forced out the butter inside.
Shen Bai packed a bowl of soup and handed it to Leng Shaojun: "Just order it, I originally wanted to ask you not to follow."
Leng Shaojun took it and looked at Shen Bai with a smile: "Of course I want to follow the prince, how can I let the prince go to danger alone!"
After speaking, he ate the flax cakes to show that he was fine, Shen Bai took the soup bowl Shunzi handed over, drank the mutton soup slowly, ate the ribs and ate the flax cakes.
After eating, the brothers outside took turns eating dinner inside.
Shen Bai put on the cloak, looked at the strong wind outside, it was very strange that the strong wind hovered in the high place but didn't hit the ground.
"You sit here for a while, I'll go out for a walk." Shen Bai looked at Leng Shaojun and said.
The latter put down the bowl: "I'll go too, I'll finish eating anyway."
Shen Bai nodded, watching Shunzi hand him the cloak, the two of them walked to the compound in the dark, the square dome of the ancient castle was still very clear and looked very strange under the moonlight, the mix of exotic styles made The architectural style here is more westernized.
"Young Master, do you know anything about this place?" Shen Bai led him to the resting place of the sergeants, and carefully inspected the food of the sergeants. When some sergeants saw Shen Bai coming over, they wanted to get up and return the salute. Shen Bai waved his hand to signal them not to care, and continued to eat that is.
While looking at Shen Bai's careful and considerate inspection, Leng Shaojun lamented that Shen Bai had such a mind at such an age, he could not only lead the army to fight, but also be able to see the subtleties, but he was a little caught off guard by his question.
"This area belonged to the Xiongnu in ancient times, and later it was the sphere of influence of the Turks. Because it is close to Kucha and Uyghur, it has been impacted by various cultures. It has the imprint of the Central Plains civilization, and has the style of nomads and the Western Regions, but it is the Western Regions and the Central Plains. throat." Leng Shaojun answered meticulously.
Shen Bai boarded a tower, looked at the Gobi in the distance and nodded.
"My lord seems to have a lot of affection for this place, have you been here before?" Looking at Shen Bai's expression, Leng Shaojun asked a little puzzled.
In Shen Bai's mind, he thought of the scene of the two brothers Kou and Xu going together outside the Great Wall in Heishui City in The Legend of Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty, and he couldn't help feeling that he also had this immersive feeling.
If Shen Bai knew that the author of the book he was friends with back then died in a hurry, he didn't know how he would feel.
"The shadows of swords and swords have dimmed, and the border towns of beacon fire have been deserted." Shen Bai recalled the lyrics of the ending song of the Three Kingdoms: "I have never been here before, but I just have a fascination for the frontier fortress."
"The frontier is bitterly cold, why is the prince fascinated by this place?" Leng Shaojun asked with a smile.
Shen Bai stood with his hands behind his back: "It's the bitter cold in the frontier that makes me lament the difficulty of the soldiers who guarded the frontier in the past. Seeing the snow and desolation outside the frontier, but thinking of the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River, what kind of mood is this?"
Leng Shaojun looked at Shen Bai in surprise: "My lord speaks like a dream, and it also draws reverie, like poetry. But most of the local garrisons are from the north, so why do you miss Misty Rain in the south of the Yangtze River?"
Shen Bai smiled: "I was negligent. I always wanted to be a troubadour. Although I can't compose poems, it's not bad to be able to play the piano."
"You?" Leng Shaojun looked at him noncommittally: "The most difficult thing for a person under one person and above ten thousand people is to be free."
Shen Bai looked at him: "You understand me a little bit."
Leng Shaojun smiled slightly at what he said, his handsome face flushed slightly.
Coming down from the tower, Shen Bai sat in front of the campfire and looked at the haystacks and quilts made of capes that Shunzi helped them lay out.
"Shunzi, what time is it?"
"It hasn't been a whole day, young master, are you sleeping?" Shunzi looked at Shen Bai and asked,
Shen Bai shook his head. In modern times, he is used to sleeping late, and likes to read books to enjoy the peace of night. In ancient times, he handles official duties and thinks about problems every night, as if night is always destined for him.
"Can I bring you the piano?" Shunzi knew that Shen Bai was too early to sleep, so he asked.
Shen Bai nodded and looked at Leng Shaojun: "Go to sleep, I'll play the piano next to you."
Leng Shaojun nodded, leaning on the haystack and looking at Shen Bai.
Shen Bai took Ruan Qin, sat in front of the moonlight, watched the sky leisurely pluck the strings, lost his mind for a moment, and actually played "Maple Leaf Yellow", the sound of the piano changed in repeated simple tunes, how many people in ancient times listened to it like this Over chords repeat the same tonic rhythm.But Shen Bai has already won a rare reputation in the world, and no one dares to question his level. After several repetitions, the charm of the tune can be hummed by those who have heard it, and the charm in the tune can be hummed Only then is it reflected, and the foreshadowing rhythm in the piano sound brings the audience into the music.
Leng Shaojun couldn't help but praise in his heart, the piano is like a person, Shen Bai's piano sound is like the sea, deep and incomprehensible.
"Who is it?" the sergeant guarding outside shouted, and Sunja got up from the campfire to look.
A man whose Chinese is not very standard came from outside: "I just want to meet this friend who plays the piano."
Shunzi looked back at Shen Bai, who nodded.
"Let him in!" Sunja said to the sergeant.
A handsome, slender, dark-skinned young man came in with two water bags in his hands. From the leather jacket on his body and the hair tie tied halfway, it could be judged that he was a foreigner.
"Dear friend, please accept the greetings from the same wandering wanderer." The other party looked at Shen Bai and smiled, showing a row of white teeth.
Shen Bai pointed to the stone pier beside him, asking him to sit down.
The young man sat down and looked at Shen Bai's Ruan Qin: "What kind of instrument is this, the sound of the piano is so beautiful."
"Ruan Qin, do you want to see it?" Shen Bai handed it to him.
The young man put down the water bag and wiped his body with his hands, for fear of dirtying Shen Bai's piano, he took a closer look after taking it, and then Shen Bai handed him the pick.
He took the plectrum, gently flicked the strings, and unexpectedly played exotic music, the sound of the piano was full of another style.
The young man played for a while, then sent it back to Ruan Qin, picked up the water bag: "This is wine, do you want to taste it?"
Shen Bai put down the piano, opened it and took a sip. The mellow wine tasted just right because of the low temperature.
"Not bad." Shen Bai praised.
"My name is Zhabu, from Tubo." The young man opened another bag and took a sip to introduce himself.
"Shen Bai." Shen Bai replied with a smile.
"Shen Bai?" Zha Bu looked at him: "This name seems very familiar, I seem to have heard it somewhere, it seems to be a high official of your Song Kingdom."
"Oh, is that so?" Shen Bai smiled back at him.
"Well, I heard that he is very good at playing the piano, the best in the world, but I don't remember the exact name, by the way, he seems to be a prince." Zhabu said to himself.
Shen Bai didn't reply either, he raised his water bag and clinked glasses as if he had a big mouthful with him.
While the two were enjoying themselves, the sergeant came over and whispered something to Shunzi.
Shunzi hurried over: "Young Master, the Dangxiang cavalry was found ahead, there are more than 600 people, and they are coming towards us."
Shen Bai looked at Shunzi: "Turn out the bonfires in other places, and listen to my zither's sound. Take Mr. Leng to the rear and let people lie in ambush." After finishing speaking, he whispered a few words in Shunzi's ear .
Shunzi looked at him, and went to ask Leng Shaojun to leave.
"But, king?" Leng Shaojun looked at Shen Bai, who shook his head, indicating that it was okay.
Zhabu watched their movement: "Aren't you going to run?"
Shen Bai smiled: "It's just a few hundred people, it's not worth my touch."
Zhabu showed a surprised expression, got up and said, "I'll go out and tell my subordinates, and I'll come back to sit with you later."
Shen Bai didn't care either, picked up Ruan Qin and gently wiped it, put it on his lap, picked up the water bag, and took a sip of the wine.
Seeing that Xiao Mo couldn't persuade him, he had to send someone overnight to inform Li Lu and ask him to respond.
