The sky is bright summer on the banks of the Red River

When Ming Xia and Sara joined forces smoothly, in the West Taiwan Expeditionary Army, Prince Kailu and Irbonne were in a state of desperation.

After Alanna woke up, she found that the high priest Alina, who was acting as a civil servant, had disappeared.Yes, after she searched around but couldn't find anyone, she panicked completely.When she told the news to Prince Kailu and his staff officer Irbonne, their expressions changed drastically.Immediately, I shouted conspiracy theory in my heart: No!The two people who reacted immediately arranged for people to chase after him, and at the same time sent people back to the imperial capital to inform His Majesty the King.

However, when he received the news from the imperial capital, Prince Kailu broke the clay tablet in his hand angrily. At this moment, he drew his sword and chopped Ming Xia up.He even regretted that he didn't listen to what Irbonne said at the beginning, because as early as when Mingxia set off with them, Irbonne told Kailuquan that once he found anything wrong with Alina, he must It should be removed as soon as possible.

All the belongings in the Temple of Goddess Alina in the West Tai Empire, swept away without leaving a trace? !Since the Great Temple of Goddess Alina was newly built and founded 60 years ago, so many years of accumulation, it is such a fortune that it is not enough to conquer ten Malateas. Such wealth is actually regarded as a pawn by them. It was swallowed by Ming Xia unknowingly.

This is simply a loud slap on the ear, and all the people who slapped can't regain their senses!Fortunately, His Majesty the King knew a little about the principle of keeping family ugliness from publicity, so he suppressed the news and sent people to investigate secretly.However, he didn't expect that in Ming Xia's four years, he had hidden a heaven-defying skill, and that was Ming Xia's portable space.

This time, I'm afraid I won't be able to find the real Priest Alina again~~

However, Ming Xia was not among the screenwriters of the script master, so he escaped and ascended to heaven smoothly.No matter how hard the people you send out search, they won't be found.Otherwise, is the law of survival in the wild taught by Ming Xia in the military exercises in his previous life a joke? !There are still other tricks!

Driving all the way, on the road with few people, the sky gradually brightened, the morning sun leaped out of the horizon, and the brilliance of the morning sun filled the ancient land.

Sarah arranged for the caravan to stop for a short rest and change shifts.After all, traveling day and night is too much for people and horses.The caravan stopped on the side of the road, and the team members sat on the ground one after another, took out the food they carried, and started to light a fire to make breakfast.It seems that they plan to leave after breakfast is settled.Ming Xia watched Sara commanding the entire caravan's regular operations in an orderly manner by herself. From this moment on, she felt completely relieved and relaxed.

"Master Mingxia, how did you escape the capture of the Western Taiwan Army these two days?

? After a while of arrangement, Sara sat next to Ming Xia and asked curiously: "You just slipped away like this, the Western Taiwan Army must not be reconciled." "

"First, I'm riding a camel, so I can run fast enough." Ming Xia smiled and continued to analyze: "Second, I've been walking all the way, and I've been dressing up and pretending." Having said this, Ming Xia grinned and showed white teeth. : "When you saw me, wasn't I dressing up as a troubadour?" As for how I counter-stalked, I can't teach you this skill yet.

"No wonder, let me just say, on this business road, I haven't met anyone who is chasing you, master."

"Hey, Sara, now we are in the territory of Mitanni, where did the Western Taiwan Army come from?"

"Well, that's right." Sara seemed to think of something, and quickly added a reminder: "We are going to Malatea, master, you'd better change your clothes, so that the Western Taiwan Army there won't recognize you."

"I know. By the way, Sara, you should also call me Ming Xia. Once you call me master, everything will be exposed." Ming Xia slowly explained the reason: "I don't want outsiders to know yet. , The owner of this caravan is me."

"Yes, I understand, Ming Xia."

"Well done, Sarah."

After organizing the entire caravan to rest, they set off again.The way of Mingxia's departure and return really made it impossible for Kailu and his party stationed outside Malatea to guess, and His Majesty the King of the imperial capital couldn't even figure it out.Moreover, there is Sara, a barbarian girl, so this trip in Ming Xia will definitely be dazzling.

Sure enough, as Sarah expected, the caravan arrived at the gate of Malatea as scheduled before it got dark.Sarah skillfully asked the team to remove the cloth covering the goods, revealing the high-quality food inside, and then stepped forward to deal with the soldiers guarding the gate for a while, and the gate into the city opened smoothly.

At this moment, Ming Xia had already wrapped her hair tightly with a white turban, and changed into a pure white long-sleeved dress, blooming trousers, and dark brown thin leather boots, and pinned on her waist a pair of delicate imitation made by later generations. Waist knife.Wearing a pair of leather gloves on his hands, he also applied a layer of mud on his fair face to cover up the lotus imprint at the corner of his eyes that is most likely to reveal his identity.The whole person has changed a lot, and it is absolutely impossible to see the original appearance.

After entering the city, Sarah, the old horse, knew the way, and took the whole caravan to find an inn to stay. When putting the horses, Ming Xia put back the camel she pulled out of the portable space while no one was paying attention. Space in the ranch to go.After finishing all these, when she got to the house, Sarah told Ming Xia the plan in her heart.After hearing this, Ming Xia quickly recalled the comic script and the news she received when she left Hattushas, ​​the imperial capital.

The prince's small universe exploded, and after the black prince left Malatea, it only took five days to capture Malatya.

In the room, Ming Xia and Sara sat at an old wooden round table full of scratches to rest and discuss.

"Sara, we have sold out the goods this time, so we should leave as soon as possible, preferably before tomorrow!" Ming Xia knocked on the table, thinking of the custom here, once Malatea fell, before the black prince's army left , was to sack the city in advance, and what she was worried about was that her caravan members would be taken away and sold as slaves.Going to buy new slaves for training will also take a lot of time and thought, so try to avoid these unnecessary losses if you can.

"Why? I still want to increase the price of goods. It's not easy to go to Malatea." Sara pursed her lips: "Brothers also want to go to get more money to support their families."

"Sara, if you don't want your brother to die in Malatea for no reason, just listen to me." After a pause, Ming Xia thought of the mountain of golden treasures in the space that he got out of the temple: "What's more , as long as I return to the Bedouin, you will no longer have to worry about life, it will only be better than before."

"Of course I listen to you." Sara nodded unwillingly: "I wanted to take advantage of the chaos to find Dragon's Eye."

Ming Xia didn't bother to pay attention to Sara, she felt that this girl was a bit possessed, and she should leave here as soon as possible after finishing the trade.She seemed to remember another scene in the comics where the Black Prince ransacked the whole of Malatea before he left. She didn't want any loss to her caravan.

That night, Ming Xia and his party lived in the city of Malatea slept soundly.

But Kailu and his party, who camped one day away from Malatea, were quite uneasy.Although Ming Xia's disappearance and escape is a thunder point that their group will not mention for the time being.However, in the face of Malatea, it is still a big move to capture it.

Among them, it is about the ironmaking technique provided by the Hittites.Of course, this ironmaking technique is not provided free of charge like before.Three months before Ming Xia left the West Terrace, she secretly wrote to Daros, giving him an idea so that he would not encounter the schemes of that old fox of His Majesty the King.She suggested that Daros should take the initiative to propose to His Majesty the king the ways and means of investing in future technologies in ironmaking.In other words, every iron product smelted by the Hittites must be sold to Xitai first, but Xitai must give the Hittites sufficient guarantees and reasonable prices. The old fox dealt with it.

At this time, the people sitting by the bonfire were discussing how to capture Malatea.Everyone chattered and discussed, while Prince Kairu, who was sitting on a chair, held a glass of wine, and after listening to the methods discussed by his cronies, he said to them confidently: "Taking Malatya

, as long as five days is enough. "

The little girl Xili was still so worried. After she shared her views with her highness the prince, she also did not forget to remind another thorn in Kailu's heart: "I think, Na It is impossible for Princess Ji Ya to give up the Eye of the Dragon so easily, I must find this treasure." Then the two of them hid in the tent in various ways.

As for the Black Prince in the city of Malatea, at dawn, he received news from his scouts.With the determination to confront the opponent, he left one-third of the troops behind Malatea, and led the army out of the city.

At this time, Ming Xia, who was busy exchanging goods with Sara in the city for trade, hadn't noticed this, so she missed the best opportunity to leave the city and exposed her identity that she tried her best to hide in advance. Exposure before several major forces.

When Ming Xia and Sara finished handling all the goods in their hands and exchanged them for gold and silver, the time of this day was also exhausted.As a last resort, they had no choice but to stay.On the night when they stayed at the inn in the city of Malatea, Prince Kailu brought a group of his cronies and asked to stay in Malatea.

When Sara got up early the next day, she prepared the caravan, retreated out of the room, tidied up her troops, and was about to leave Malatea when she learned that the prefect who guarded the city ordered that before the black prince came back, anyone, Caravans, soldiers, etc. are not allowed to leave Malatea, especially caravans.

A bad feeling surged up in Ming Xia's heart, Nima, it's not really going to be another close-range shot of soy sauce, right? !Master of the script, can't our hearts bear the burden? !

After hearing the news, Ming Xia looked at the excited red Sarah with a dark face, and wondered why she fell in love with this savage girl who loves to go to dangerous places.Although the ancestors of the Celestial Dynasty said that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have blessings in the future.Sara verified this sentence with herself.But she doesn't have it in Ming Xia yet, it's really too uncertain.

Back to the inn where he stayed for two days again, the fat bald boss squinted his eyes with a smile, and cheerfully persuaded: "I didn't say, you stay here, I promise to stay in my shop, you businessmen It's absolutely safe." While speaking, he kept looking at Ming Xia and Sara over and over again with the same kind of money-seeking eyes: "Don't worry, as long as the black prince comes back, you can leave safely, although It's not peaceful now, but it's safe to leave Malatea."

Ming Xia listened quietly, combing her ears to receive the news word for word, but her mind was spinning non-stop.After returning to the room with Sara, the two underestimated again.

Sara proposed: "Master Mingxia, since we can't leave now, then tonight we will go to kill Dragon's Eye."

something to find out. "

"Do you know where this thing is?" Ming Xia was frightened by the enthusiasm in Sara's eyes, and quickly poured cold water on her to cool down: "Malatea is so big, do you know where this thing is placed?"

"The city hall building, or put it in the warehouse next to the city hall building." It was obvious that the girl had done her homework: "This is where they pile up the loot."

Ming Xia was also stunned by this news, and she asked Sara again: "How do you know so well?" She didn't know that the answer was even more concise and shocking: "Master, as you said, knowing yourself and the enemy will never end a hundred battles." Ha, it's really good to learn. , The essence is learned, and the homework is too comprehensive.

"Sarah, I think that after returning to the desert oasis, you can directly bring three caravans."

"I will live up to my master's trust." Sara replied with a smile, and the sly eyes of the fox lit up: "However, we should get the dragon's eye first."

"Okay, just follow what you said, and act tonight." Ming Xia raised the corners of her lips, bit her lower lip with her upper teeth and looked at Sara with a grin. The wildness of Sarah's fire just revived the wildness that Ming Xia had suppressed for many years.

☆, extra

The author has something to say: I present a small extra chapter, and I hope you enjoy watching it.Notes: ①Buddhist cosmology: world: the flow of time, past, present, future, three generations.Boundary: the division of space, east, west, north, south, up, down, ten directions.A small world: the sun and the moon revolve around Mount Sumeru, and the area where the sun and the moon shine, that is, the four continents centered on Mount Sumeru, are called a small world (including the big iron surrounding mountains, the sky, etc.), layman Huang Nianzu believes that a small world The world is equivalent to a galaxy.Our earth is located in the Southern Continent of the four continents. ② String theory: String theory (string theory), that is, string theory, is a branch of theoretical physics.A basic view of string theory is that the basic unit of nature is not point-like particles such as electrons, photons, neutrinos, and quarks, but very small, linear "strings" (including "open strings" with endpoints). ” and looped “closed strings” or closed strings). ③ Mahayana Sutra: Here is a quote from the Mahayana Sutra, saying that the Dharma is hard to hear, and the human body is hard to come by.It means that the truth is hard to find.There are not many to see, remember to leave a message, I will post the second one, just in this column!

Extra Story of Ming Xia ([-])

I can never imagine that I really saw the ten-direction world mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures, the seed of the world born in the world of lotus flower storage, the initial form of each small world.So spectacular that I can't describe it in words.The so-called boundless sea of ​​​​worlds, after seeing the magnificence of the Hualien world refined from the seeds of a small world, I finally realized that I am in the world of ten directions, in the world, so small that I am not even a speck of dust.

The careless housekeeper in the space, Little Lotus, told me that it was named Lotus, first to commemorate this capable man who could refine the seeds of the world, and second, to take the meaning of tranquility from the meaning of Qibao lotus in Buddhist scriptures.It keeps me from asking where it came from, where it went, past, and future.

Fortunately, I grew up with Buddhist beliefs.I learned from the Buddhist scriptures that the Buddhist cosmology is beyond my imagination. Many things have far exceeded the current level of cognition.For example, people came from the Light-Sound Heaven. I may never be able to believe that I have never experienced this fantastic journey.

The world of Hualien is so big, I think, I can't finish it in my whole life.

I remember reading the Buddhist cosmology ① in my previous life, which mentioned that a small world is the sun and moon revolving around Mount Sumeru. Some lay people believe that a small world is equivalent to a galaxy.From the perspective of the Buddhist cosmology, the earth under our feet is just a tiny piece of Nanzhan Buzhou, which is located in the four continents.

And the Hualien world I live in is a complete small world seed refining.Sure enough, that sentence is confirmed, life in the two-dimensional world will never understand the magnificence of the three-dimensional world.What's more, in the world as developed as in the previous life, "string theory" ② was proposed, and the world was believed to be eleven-dimensional.Like this, there is nothing unacceptable.

The little lotus told me not to touch the original flowers and things in this world lightly, even though it has now become a magic weapon of the highest treasure level, it still belongs to me only.But there are always fair rules in the world, as much as you get, you have to pay.To take out what is in there is always another way to fill what is taken.Even now that I am equivalent to the god of this Hualien world, I can't do whatever I want.

Because of my faith, I hardly touched anything in the world of Hualien.

I always believe that Hualien World is an object after all, and people should not rely on objects to live, but just as an auxiliary tool for survival.You can't lose priority, let alone be happy because of things.

Scholars are poor and never deviate from righteousness, and attainment never deviates from Tao.

Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, pays attention to the number of blessings, and should not be willful, but should cherish blessings.

br>Every world is real. I read a book in my previous life, and now I am a character in the book.

I am now living in this fictitious world, but I cannot deny that this world is fake.

I fell into the pool of the Great Temple, and then became what this country calls the so-called Great Priest Alina.When I first came here, I was very frightened and afraid, fearing that I would be burned to death on the spot as a different kind.But, no.I think this is what my grandmother used to say, accumulate good deeds, and God will bless you.It is also because of the influence of my grandmother that I chose to become a doctor, hoping to save the world by hanging the pot, benefiting a lot, and accumulating virtue for my future children and grandchildren.

But this adventure completely shattered my previous 30-year plan.

When I stayed in the great temple and knelt in front of the idol to pray with other priests, I always thought about how I should live my life.Happiness can not be judged by others, only self-knowledge.

The power center of the Xitai Empire is not as simple as I imagined. The water here is too deep, like a vortex silent in the dark, which can swallow people at any time.I wanted to stand on the shore and watch the water, but I couldn't help being dragged into this pool with countless whirlpools buried in it.

I have seen all kinds of people, their hearts are extremely greedy, longing for power, money, and material things. I don't know why I have such thoughts and think they are painful.In fact, I don't have any qualifications to comment and evaluate whether other people's lives are good or not. It's theirs, not mine.

My grandmother told me when I was very young that the simpler one's life is, the happier one will live.Not everyone will understand this truth, just like what the Buddha said, good men and good women in this world plant good roots in front of the Buddhas in the sand of the Ganges, and only then can they learn the Mahayana Sutras for a while.Such difficulty, such preciousness, no wonder few people pay attention to it.

People in the world have become accustomed to drifting with the tide in reality, and have delusional thoughts in their hearts, turning their dreams upside down.

The more you read, the more tired your heart will be, and the more painful your life will be.

But the true taste of life lies in the "plainness".

So, I really don't like this life of intrigue and intrigue, but now I can't do without it.I don't understand the world situation in this world, and I can't just be an ideal Plato, so I can only stay here, study their rules of the game carefully, and try to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune depend on each other.

I was being dragged into the center of power, which was a curse to me.However, in this pool of deep water, I have learned things that I could not learn in my previous life, such as means, such as strategies

, such as scheming, this is a blessing.What I am facing now is not the theory in books, but real-life practical operations. The battlefield of fame, fortune, money and power without gunpowder is really frightening.

Every time I come back from a national conference in West Taiwan, I will think about what everyone said from the beginning to the end, think from their perspective, and then treat it with the seriousness of writing a thesis in my university.Start learning from scratch, and constantly make up for the incompleteness in this area.Only by understanding the rules here can I live better.

The days in the temple are very boring and long, but for me, the time is too short and I have too much to learn.

I want to leave Xitai, I have the ability to survive.

However, right now I don't have the strength to protect this ability.

I'm not as good as these people who have been playing with their minds all their lives, so I have to pretend to be submissive, pretend to be cute, lurk by their side, and learn my shortcomings from them.If I act recklessly, I will become a tool of others and use my ability to satisfy their selfish desires.In the history of China, there are too many stories like this. What about talents? It’s not that they become a tool for those in power. It’s just that they have good or bad tools.Therefore, I must keep a low profile, keep silent, and secretly increase my strength.

Grandma said that patience is a science, and learning to be patient can improve your self-cultivation and strengthen your inner world.

The life I want to live is unrestrained and free.Drinking wine in leisure time, or planting flowers and grass, or farming in leisure time.It doesn't need too much luxury and nobility, just simple food and light food.

In order to live the life I want, I must be patient, and secretly cultivate my own power, recharge my energy, and hide my strength and bide my time.Be ready for everything and wait for the moment when the east wind comes.

Sometimes when I think about the beautiful life that is about to be realized, I feel that all this is not unacceptable, it is not a big deal to be ordered by a little prince a few times.I can't stand this little grievance. I still want to do something big.I'd be a complete idiot if my plan went bankrupt just because of this.

I have passed the age of impulsiveness and the age of doing things without thinking through my brain. I think that in my future life, I may encounter other bad things waiting for me to deal with.

When I came here, the plot hadn't started yet. I planned to leave before the plot started, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. The caravan I joined encountered a little trouble, so I had to stay and fight for the next caravan. More time to evacuate.Things are going to change in Xitai, and their succession problem is becoming more and more serious, and people come to win them over every now and then.Too many people in front and back dazzled my eyes.

Fortunately, I understand that I am a pawn of His Majesty the King, so I stick to the camp, but offended a lot of people.But this is not important anymore, as long as I leave quietly during the reign of Supiro Uma I, and go back to the desert I found to live in seclusion, I don't have to be afraid of their instigation and hostility towards me.Even if I were a commoner in the desert, it would be better to live such a life that looks glamorous on the outside but is unspeakable on the inside.

In the first three months after leaving the West Terrace, Prince Kailu has always held a hostile attitude towards me.I think he must be holding a grudge. When he and Irbonni came to the temple to win me over, I sternly rejected him, which probably hurt his face. This narrow-minded man.He attaches great importance to Xili. I don't know whether he values ​​Xili as a person or the matter of Xili's connection with his life.I guessed in my heart that it was more of the latter, and he valued his life more.

Supiluliuma I had the intention to transfer my chess piece to his son, but I didn't want to spend my whole life in Xitai, the life here was not what I wanted.So in front of His Majesty the King, I deliberately pretended not to leave the Great Temple, so that he would let go of his guard against me before I fled.He fell into my scheme, carefully arranged my substitute, and cleared the obstacles for me to leave.

This made me quite happy, but in terms of face, I had to keep a sad and reluctant look.Only in this way, when they leave, they will have no time to react, they will only first think about whether I have been killed or hijacked, and miss the opportunity to make a correct judgment, so as to give me enough time to leave.

The plan went quite smoothly, I left the West Terrace smoothly, and packed away the wealth accumulated in Alina Temple for 60 years.For my future survival in the desert, I have more than enough guarantee money.

After Supiluli Uma I heard the news, it was already a long time after I left smoothly.

When I was in Mitanni, I spent the craziest night with Sara. In front of Prince Kairu, Black Prince, and Sharma, we robbed the dragon that everyone coveted like bandits. eye.

Looking at their depressed faces, I feel that the grievances of so many years have disappeared.

I feel like I have studied at Chengchi University in Xitai for four years. When I graduated, I had all the wealth of the Temple of Alina as a scholarship, and I had Dragon Eye as a thesis practice.

The chances of life are really wonderful.
