Through the fairy valley

Tang poetry said, "The north wind blows the ground and the white grass breaks, and Hu Tian is snowing in August."

When Qian Ke went out with Gong Maoyun, it was the end of September, and the northern land was already covered with snow.

It was already the end of the year, standing on top of the mothership and looking out of the window, apart from the snow that kept drifting past, I couldn't see anything clearly.

After the mothership soared into the stratosphere, it was surrounded by haze, but its speed could be increased.

When they were in the sky above Beiman, the largest tribal gathering place in Beiman marked on the satellite map was where their royal court was.

The snow is covered below, and in a white confusion, if it is not for the smoking tents, one would really think that this is a no-man's land.

The golden-roofed tent of the northern barbarian king's court that overlapped on the satellite map was also completely covered by snow. Only the cavalry teams below formed a clear color difference between the white snow.

"Find a place to stealthily land and bring people here." Qian Ke waved his hand, and some attendants escorted a few people.

When the people who came saw Qian Ke, they knelt on the ground humbly and kowtowed to Qian Ke: "See the Lord of the Holy Valley."

"Do you know what to do?" Qian Ke looked at these people and asked.

"Yes, the little one knows."

The ones who were released were the spies that Beiman had sent in the Central Plains for many years. They had been lurking for more than ten years without incident, but because of a problem with the investigation of the Immortal Valley, they were exiled to the magical Muye Peak.

Seeing the seven huge balls above their heads on Muye Peak every day, they once felt that they had no chance to reunite with their families.

"Give them some war horses and warm clothes." Hang Qi ordered.

After getting off the spaceship, the oncoming north wind made his face hurt, Qian Ke squatted down and played happily with the snow under his feet.

Cao Yang and Duo Duo huddled behind him and followed suit, only Gong Maoyun was too cold to hide.

Seeing Gong Mao Yun Leng, Qian Ke called the speeding car down, opened the door, and told them to go up quickly.

"It's been a long time since I've been in this car, so I feel it!" Cao Yang sat on the flying car, looked at the familiar environment and said, there was heating in the flying car, and they sat very comfortably.

"This is the love speed car of your ancestors!" Duoduo said with a smile.

"Just talk too much." Qian Ke rubbed his silver hair in exchange for the protection of Gong Maoyun and Cao Yang.

Hang Qi and the others also boarded the open-top suspension transport vehicle used by Immortal Valley. The vehicle has a protective cover, which seems to be unobstructed, but it can block the cold wind.

An hour later, a large group of cavalry came over with difficulty in the snow. The leading general was a young man, wearing a black split coat, with no clothes on his chest, his chest was exposed, and his muscles were very strong and mighty. .

"By the order of the Great Khan, I respectfully welcome the Lord of the Sacred Valley to the Golden Roof Tent." The general could speak fluent Central Plains dialect.

Hang Qi looked at the speeding car with tight windows, and Qian Ke was being slapped in the palm of his hand. Instead of rolling down the window, he said with an external loudspeaker: "Lead the way ahead."

The northern barbarian cavalry was divided into two sides, guarding the 21 flying vehicles of Shenxian Valley.

The knights looked curiously at the bottom, there were no wheels, and there were no horses pulling the box half a person's height above the ground, carrying people in the sky, and the speed was just right for them.

The Immortal Valley Master is sitting even more strangely, with a white iron shell, and the black crystal in front reflects the light, floating in the air very nicely.

The flying cars caused heated discussions among the people in the royal court. A large number of people came out of the tents that were originally blocked by heavy snow. Many of them were dressed thickly, but obviously they were not warm enough.

Qian Ke observed that there was not even a tenth of the steam on the top of the tent. It must be difficult to endure such a temperature without a fire.

In front of the golden-roofed tent of the Beiman royal court, the guards of the royal court lined up neatly in two teams. In front, welcome the arrival of Immortal Valley.

Seeing the flying car mixed with war horses, everyone exclaimed. The flying cars were divided into two teams and stopped five meters away from the wooden fence. Qian Ke's flying car was higher than them and landed in the front.

Hang Qi got out of the car with everyone, Beiman Khan looked at the white guy, and didn't know how to arrange his subordinates to open the iron cage to welcome the guests down.

The car door automatically went up, Hang Qi and his attendants went up, Qian Ke and the others got out of the car.

Beiman Khan is a chubby middle-aged man, but he is very strong. His exposed arms are not afraid of the cold in winter. You can see the strong muscle groups from his arms. Seeing him, he reminds me of money. Odin, the god of Norse mythology.

The spy leader who was sent back by Qian Ke stepped forward and said to Khan, "This is the Lord Qian of the Immortal Valley."

Beiman Khan walked down the steps, bowed his hands to Qian Ke and said, "This Khan welcomes the distinguished guests from afar on behalf of the twelve tribes of the Northern Man."

His Central Plains dialect has a round pronunciation, and his pronunciation is very standard.

"Where did Da Khan learn the Central Plains dialect? It's very standard." Qian Ke looked at him and laughed.

The other party obviously didn't expect that Qian Ke's first sentence would be this, and he laughed boldly: "Before, the Northern Man and the Central Plains Dynasty had always intermarried, so naturally we all know the Central Plains dialect!"

"Oh!" Qian Ke nodded: "Then everyone has been a family since ancient times!"

"Yes!" Khan made a gesture of invitation, and the cavalry on both sides blew their horns at the same time, and the sound of the horns resounded through the snow-capped land.

The curtains on both sides of the golden-roofed tent were lifted by the maid, and the two led the way in together. Cow dung balls were burning warmly in the spacious tent, and under the flames was a piece of golden decoration.

The huge flying eagle throne is shining with gold, and on the carpets on both sides, there are more than a dozen small coffee tables neatly placed, which is very flavorful.

"Please take your seat." Khan gave way.

Qian Ke shook his head: "We can't overwhelm the guests, we're still sitting below."

Beiman Khan laughed: "Okay, everyone sit facing each other.

People on both sides sat on the left and right coffee tables, sitting on the ground, and the maids brought fragrant milk tea, and the whole big tent was filled with milk fragrance and steaming.

"Ben Khan has heard of Qian Guzhu's name before, but since the road was cut off, he has no contact with the Central Plains, so he can't visit. There's really nothing he can do about it!" Beiman Khan patted his stomach and said.

Qian Ke found it interesting to see his heroic actions and words: "Khan, you are very polite, we are here this time for the sake of good relations between the two countries."

"Two countries? Is it our Beiman and Shenxiangu, or our Hezhao Kingdom, or the dying Yaoguo?" Beiman Khan asked puzzled.

"The entire Central Plains!" Qian Ke said.

Beiman Khan crossed his arms and said, "Dear guest, it's not that we don't trust you, but that the Central Plains dynasty has too many powers. I don't know if you can represent the entire Central Plains?"

Qian Ke nodded with a smile: "I can represent other than King Ming, including the emperors of Yaozhao and Zhao."

"Oh!" Beiman Khan showed a surprised expression: "However, a few months ago, Emperor Zhao attacked Dashanguan, and our two countries are already on the verge of war."

Qian Ke laughed inwardly, that was still Lao Tzu's soldiers.

"Da Khan, there is a saying in the Central Plains called 'A Da Mo Xiao Ah Er', I wonder if Da Khan has heard of it?" Qian Ke asked.

Beiman Khan shook his head, looked at the people around him, and asked in Beiman dialect, but the others didn't know what to do.

"I don't understand, please explain to the guest."

"That means elder brother don't laugh at second brother." Qian Ke explained.

The chiefs of the northern barbarians still didn't quite understand, and it was very interesting to scratch their heads and ears one by one.

Qian Jianjian further explained: "The Great Khan and King Ming colluded to plan to carve up Zhao Kingdom from north to south, right?"

Beiman Dahan didn't hide it: "Yes, there is such a thing, but that kid is not authentic, he lied to us."

"That's why Emperor Zhao attacked Dasan Pass to prevent the northern barbarian cavalry from going south. Don't laugh at your elder brother for making mistakes. That's what it means. Do you understand, Da Khan?" Qian Ke said.

Beiman sweated profusely and touched the beard on his chin, "The ones in the front understand, but the ones in the back don't."

Gong Maoyun said with a smile in his heart: "There is a beautiful woman, Da Khan and he both like it, Da Khan got into someone else's tent at night, and when he went there the next night, he found that he was also in his tent, so which one of you two Don't laugh at anyone, you can only blame other people's beauties for being too beautiful, does Da Khan understand?"

Beiman Khan slapped the table: "Now I understand."

The other chiefs laughed, and there was a wild atmosphere in the tent.

"Everyone understands." Qian Ke shrugged his shoulders, and everyone burst into laughter.

"Now, Dasanguan is a beautiful woman. Da Khan likes it, and Emperor Zhao likes it. Anyone who takes it will feel itchy, so don't blame anyone." Qian Ke said: "But I came here today for the second beauty. "

With the topic of beauties, Qian Keshang rushed to talk about it.

"Master Qian Gu can tell you, the second beauties you are talking about are Hailing Wubu!" Don't look at Beiman Khan pretending to be stupid, but he is very shrewd, telling Qian Ke's words right away.

"Khan is smart, but I will say it's useless. If I can say no to the heavy snow, and the snow will melt outside and the earth will return to spring, then I will live in Beiman and talk about it for a while every day. It doesn't matter, but it's okay. Use, not enough to eat and not enough to burn, it’s still hard to endure the cold winter.”

Qian Ke spoke a few words to everyone's hearts, and they all looked at Beiman Khan.

Beiman Khan nodded: "Since the owner of the valley knows that we are sad this winter, he should also know that our spring looting is inevitable. Otherwise, wouldn't the twelve tribes of our grassland be destroyed?"

"So, that's why I came here." Qian Ke said.

"Oh!" Beiman Khan stood up excitedly: "Could it be that Guzhu has a way to help us tide over the difficulties?"

Qian Ke nodded and looked at Hang Qi, who got up and threw out several bags of rice and flour with shaking hands.

The chiefs of the northern barbarians and Khan came forward to check together.

"Food, profusely, this is food!" Everyone cheered, looking at Hang Qi like a baby golden bump, surrounding him to see how he conjured up the food.

"Is this an immortal method?" Beiman Khan asked Hang Qi excitedly.

"No, this is the grain of the Immortal Valley, but it was transferred here." Hang Qi explained.

Of course, everyone didn't believe it, Beiman Khan looked at Qian Ke in amazement: "Master Qian, you are also a happy person, just talk about the conditions!"

After speaking, he took everyone back and sat down, waiting for Qian Ke to speak.

"I don't know what the people of the northern barbarians use to calculate their property?" Qian Ke asked.

"Of course cattle, sheep and horses are used as livestock!" The young general who picked them up replied.

"Then each family has a little?"

"Of course, but this year a lot of people froze to death, and they were all killed for the winter. Except for the slaves, the rest of the family had some cattle, sheep and horses." Beiman Khan replied.

"How about this, for example, if I exchange [-] catties of live cattle for [-] catties of grain, and you kill another one or two for vegetables, the winter will be over." Qian Ke snapped his fingers after speaking.

Hang Qi threw out another basket of charcoal.

"You guys know about charcoal, right? It's still the same. Live animals are needed, including cattle, sheep and horses. One thousand catties is exchanged for two thousand catties."

Qian can finish talking and look at them.

Beiman Khan rubbed his hands, "How much do you want?"

"As much as you want, until it helps you survive the severe winter." Qian Ke said pertinently.

"Then we will be short of cattle and sheep after the next year?" Beiman Khan asked shrewdly.

"Do you have any gold?" Qian Ke asked back.

"There are quite a few of them, and we snatched them." Beiman Khan said excitedly. There are several large gold mines in front of them, and they have plundered them for many years.

"Next year we will trade cattle and sheep with gold, and we will sell them back."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

After the agreement between the two parties was completed, the goal was achieved, and it was an unexpected harvest. Everyone was ecstatic and became cordial to each other.

"Go and roast some fat sheep. Let's eat meat and drink." Beiman Khan said happily, and the chiefs were also happy. The winter was finally over.

"The owner of the money valley, I wonder if you, a flying thing, can let us sit?" Beiman Khan asked curiously, like an old child begging for a toy.

"Roasting sheep isn't that fast, is it?" Qian Ke asked him playfully.

"No no."

"Then let's go to the sky for a few laps." Qian Ke agreed, attracting all the chiefs to follow, for fear that he would be left behind.

When the huge flying mothership landed, the northern barbarian nobles who were about to make a few laps were already enjoying themselves.
