Ji's Qinghe;

Bei Haizhou, Lu Chengyan knew that this meant Haizhou.He hasn't received much news from the north recently, and he doesn't know what happened in Haizhou, but he was beaten on the back of the head by the emperor.

Big and small, miscellaneous, nothing serious, the believers scattered in Yujing City have already scattered away along the water and land routes.

It is true that a few lines have been caught, but Botou Mohua's lairs are scattered all over the place, and it is difficult to burn them out with a single fire.

Jin Mingwei had to pretend to be an idler during the day, and only at night could he carry a small lamp and go out to investigate the situation. Everyone caught thieves, just like thieves.

He held the leather in his hands, feeling something was about to happen.The leather is smooth to the touch, not like the common cowhide or sheepskin. Lu Chengyan held it in the palm of his hand, looking at the texture in the sunlight.

He covered it with one hand to block the sun, and only said: "Horse, leather made of Hanhai horses."

"how do you know?"

"I've seen..." Shang Yanzhi said, "What don't I know?"

Lu Chengyan glanced at him, but didn't answer. Hanhai horses are fat and strong, and they are the best choice for war horses. You can't find a few horses in the south, and they are even more expensive in the north. Except for the Hanhai cavalry that crosses the pastures, almost no one raises them.

"No..." Lu Chengyan said, "It won't be the Hanhai Cavalry."

A wooden stick fell from the window, blocking the two small windows that were originally opened, which meant that he didn't want to say more.

Lu Chengyan threw down his swollen brocade bag, and knocked on the window lattice as a greeting. He stopped asking questions, and turned his head to get on the small boat.

"Haizhou..." He walked ahead: "It's time to check the situation."

"Why don't you come and ask me?" Shang Yanzhi teased him: "It's not impossible to get involved in the horse market."

Lu Chengyan walked faster, not bothering to pay attention to the almost wagging fox tail behind this man.

Haizhou is thousands of miles away from Yujing City, and the information that can be received is limited. Lu Chengyan and Yanyunlou have a fairly deep friendship, but it is not enough to prostitute a copy of the letter without spending money, so he went around , found that the money bag was empty, and felt petty, so he went back to the chamber of commerce.

As soon as he stepped on the threshold, he raised his eyes and saw a well-arranged letter on the table, pressed by a sapphire paperweight with chi pattern.

Thousands of miles away, even if the scouts are closed, it is difficult to get in and out. The chamber of commerce can get involved, selling goods and collecting information at the same time.

Lu Chengyan opened the letter and said, "You are quick."

"Yes..." Shang Yanzhi smiled, and his voice was close at hand, piercing into his ear: "It has always been like this."

-

Zhou Tan was lifted out of the nest by one hand, and subconsciously wanted to find his chest and rub his head. The person in front of him retreated eight feet away, Zhou Tan's mind flashed, and he suddenly woke up: "Lu Chengzhi?"

Miss Lu pinched the tip of her delicate nose and stood a few meters away from him: "Don't act like a spoiled child to me, I won't do that."

Zhou Tan went to look for his boots, and even cursed on his face: "It's so early..."

He said, very unwelcome: "What are you doing here?"

"That's the poison brewed by the Bilianbo grass..." Ms. Lu said in a cat-like tone, "You don't care? That's all, I'm leaving now, you continue to lie down."

Zhou Tan stared at her for a few seconds, and found that the remaining warmth in the tent had dissipated, and the person next to her pillow had obviously walked away for a long time without waking herself up.

Angrily, he turned over and got out of bed, grabbed the coat hanging on the back of the chair, and asked, "Bilianbo grass, can it be used as poison?"

"What can't be used as poison..." Lu Chengzhi walked ahead: "Sand, snow, and stone ground into flour can poison people to death, people, it's brittle."

Zhou Tan chewed the beans behind her, brushed aside the dissatisfied horse's head that Xuezhaoshan had approached, stuffed its breakfast into his mouth and ate it up: "It seems that you have come up with something."

"Yes..." the doctor said, "I just don't want to understand for the time being, where do these war horses come from? I also don't want to understand whether they are dead or alive."

"How to say?"

Lu Chengzhi pushed aside the blanket and sat down: "They seem to be poured with this poison at the moment of life and death. The man who put the poison artificially makes them run for a few miles half dead. But this tossing has brought nothing. A disease that has no cure at all is really hard to figure out."

The wind blew up a corner of the tent, and Zhou Tan suddenly saw a horse's head protruding into the tent, snow-white, hairy, and a little bald on the head.

He pushed it out the door, and while Xuezhaoshan moaned dissatisfiedly, he tied it completely to a crooked-neck tree.

As soon as the iron lock was hung, there was nowhere to run.It was very dissatisfied, and flicked its snow-white fur tail around like a broom.

The people in the camp know how to avoid dangerous things, but the horses may not.If you don't keep an eye on it for a while, you may come over and step on this terrible disease.

Zhou Tan touched his chin, exhausted physically and mentally.This is the basis for the Hanhai iron cavalry to live and work. The war horses run away without a trace all day long. How to check them, is there any incurable plague?

Xuezhaoshan hummed and whined in front of the door, and Zhou Tan stroked its back, making it smooth and smooth.

It is free and loose, does not wear a saddle, and rolls on the spot when it is roped, and is very reluctant to be restrained.

"It didn't happen..." Lu Chengzhi said, "I've been watching. You dissected the autopsy quickly, and I didn't see any horse coming over."

"Okay..." Zhou Tan said, "It seems that this disease is aimed at war horses."

He was temporarily relieved, and went out to ask Mr. Yu where He Lianyun had gone.Yu Jintian was crying poorly with his abacus on his back: "We have to go to the pass, and we have to seal it for several days. People from Haizhou dare not enter."

"Haizhou..." Zhou Tan asked, "Is that the one?"

"Yeah, who else is there?" Yu Jintian slumped down to the ground, blinking his eyes teasingly: "Waiting for the banquet."

Da Yanjun, Zhou Tanming, he has never seen such a person, and he does not know what his surname is or what he looks like, but since the day he crossed the boundary bridge, every Beidi person who talks about Da Yanjun, With a triumphant tone, he said that the gods came down to earth.

Thinking it was someone, he subconsciously arched his shoulders and stood up straight.Next time I can't ask about important things when I'm half asleep and half awake, Zhou Tan thought, he clearly remembered what He Lianyun said, but recalled carefully, he couldn't remember the specific content.

The wind blows to the tip of the nose, and there is a burst of stagnation.Zhou Tan sneezed slightly, but was caught by Lu Chengzhi, and he walked away, ignoring Miss Lu who was following up with a small medicine box.

"Stop!" Lu Chengzhi yelled, with a flick of her skirt, she started to run wildly in the snow: "Give me the medicine before leaving!"

She ran so fast that her feet didn't touch the ground, and even the snow couldn't stop her faster and faster pace.She grabbed Zhou Tan's sleeve at once, and pinched his nose, feeling aggrieved.

Yu Jintian sighed in admiration, put away his abacus: "You are really skilled."

The medicine still has to be taken, Lu Chengzhi bared his teeth and claws, threatening Zhou Tan: "I don't want to sue you for being biased, you'd better not wait until the majesty comes back."

Zhou Tan's eyes were darkened, and his mouth was stuffy.After all, it's a trivial matter to suffer from the mouth, and you can't suffer from the mouth and the waist.

There are still things to do tomorrow, so he can't stay in bed all the time, he thought hard.

Zhou Tan drank the medicine with difficulty, grabbed Xuezhaoshan's tail and walked together, the horse's head approached affectionately, exhaling a warm snort.

He heard a sound of horseshoes coming from the mountain pass, he turned back in response, and was pulled onto the horse's back by a force.

He Lianyun sat behind him, put his arms around him, and asked gently: "Do you want to visit the mountain pass?"

"Okay." Zhou Tan said, swallowing a bitter mouthful.

With no one on its back, Xuezhaoshan was left out in the cold again. It watched a horse take two people away, held the reins in its mouth in boredom, and went to find something to eat by itself.

The horse's back is wide and stable, and there is a warmth behind it, clinging to it seamlessly.The road to the mountain pass was not too far away, but it was heavily guarded, and a series of sentry posts were scattered along the path, so Zhou Tan didn't bother to walk by himself.

The sky is whitish, presenting a gray-blue color that is far and wide, and the open grassland stretches out on the slightly undulating mountain plain like a ribbon.

As soon as the field of vision widened, the stagnation in my heart was swept away.Zhou Tan turned his head and asked, "The people from Haizhou come so quickly, is it because of the matter of Botou Mohua?"

"No..." He Lianyun said, his voice rubbed against the back of his ears, and his lips occasionally touched slightly: "He doesn't pay much attention to this matter, he just wants to come and see you...and prepare for the marriage."

The horses jumped up and galloped all the way on the mountain, passing countless whistles with smoke from cooking.

Zhou Tan couldn't hold back anymore, his heart beating a drum, the wind blew on his face, causing a burst of numbness: "See me?"

He Lianyun smiled: "Of course I want to see you."

"What are you afraid of..." He added, "It's not like you don't recognize him."

Zhou Tanquan thought he was teasing himself, he didn't bother to think about the meaning of these words, his whole face was wrinkled into bun folds, and the horse suddenly jumped down from the hillside, bringing a gust of wind.

The mountain pass is here.

The mountain peak was as steep as a knife, and a very narrow gap was cut, which could only allow a small group of people to pass by. It was an easy to defend and difficult to attack pass.

Soldiers and horses were stationed on a flat field in front of the mountain, and smoke was rising from the kitchen.Seeing this war horse from the watchtower, with a wave of the small flag, the gate opened.

The snow here seems to be thicker than other places, and the entire camp is surrounded by white mist.

Instead, He Lianyun held up the reins and encircled Zhou Tan completely. The horse galloped past the scattered crowd, and squeezed out through another door opposite.

The continuous snowfield, almost invisible vegetation.It was gray and foggy, and the sky and the earth seemed to be mixed together.

"This is the front." He Lianyun said, pointing to the boundary marker that was worn away and no longer clear.

The low boundary marker was crooked in the mud, only half of it was exposed. The general’s name could no longer be seen clearly. Zhou Tan knelt down and wiped it gently. The engraving was still there, and he lowered his head to identify it, and the handwriting was still faintly visible, a few extremely dark strokes.

Ji's Qinghe.
