Chapter 2072: "Encounter" in Border Town

The smoke billowed and the flag rolled. After our team left Xi'an, we headed all the way to the northwest.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Even when sitting in a shaded car, the sweltering temperature is very uncomfortable for people. Light cold and I are sweating every day, often changing into a set of clothes in the morning, at noon The water can be screwed out at the right time.
In this case, even if there is no disease, it is a little bit sick. Our feet are not slow, but it took five or six days to reach Fengxiang.
When I entered the city, it was only in the afternoon. In fact, we should continue to move forward after a short rest, but the rush of the road for several days has exhausted everyone, and today it is extremely hot, and many soldiers have fainted from heat stroke. Pei Yuan Zhen then ordered everyone to take a rest day and move forward.
Everyone was relieved.
When entering the station, the scorching sun over his head had burned into a big fireball. The entire border town seemed to be on fire, and every step seemed to be walking on the fire. I always boiled a bowl of Jieshu soup for everyone. After I took it to Qinghan, I took another bowl and went to the room of wonderful words.
When she entered her room, she saw her lying on the windowsill alone.
No matter where we went in the past, she may have taken care of her, or she followed Chang Qing. I was bored in the car for so long, I did n’t feel sick, and I was about to feel sick.
I said softly, "Well done, here comes the medicine."
She hurriedly turned around. I brought the medicine bowl to the table and sat down. She came over and looked down, and the muddy soup immediately made her frown: "What is this?"
"The medicine that can relieve the heat."
"I don't want to drink, I know it's bitter at first glance."
"Are you so old afraid of suffering?"
"... also, neither."
"You have to drink if you are afraid of suffering. If you have a fever, your father-in-law will let someone send you back. Do you want to be sent back?"
As soon as she heard it, her face suddenly dimmed, as if she saw this possibility, she immediately took up the bowl and mumbled and drank it.
I smiled and took out a piece of hemp candy for her.
The taste of maltose slightly drives out the bitterness in her mouth. She the candy bar and looks at me with her head crooked: "Mother, where are we going next?"
I still can't answer this question. How to go this way, the instructions were transmitted from Pei Yuanzhang's imperial driving, but according to what he had prepared before, and the general direction of this road-- " Should continue to go northwest. "
Miaoyan looked at me with his eyes wide open: "Are you going out of Yumen Pass?"
I smiled: "Don't say stupid things, this time your father Emperor took you to worship the Emperor's Tomb. How could the Emperor's Tomb be outside the Yumen Pass?"
"... It's true."
She bit her candy bar and murmured.
I stood up and went to the bed to look out. Although the city is small, it has very important military significance. If Shaanxi is the northwest gateway of the Central Plains, then Fengxiang is the northwest gateway of Shaanxi, and Pei Yuanzhang is temporarily located in Xi'an. This place is particularly important.
The city walls here are very high. The gray walls are like a giant standing on this flat ground, guarding this small border city.
Speaking of which, although I have been to so many places, this is my first time here.
Although it is shaded by trees, many lush colors can be seen outside the city, spreading along the river, but the sand is still very serious. A gust of wind brings a cloud of sand and dust. When many people in the city walked, they wore hoods on their heads, and the drooping chiffon almost covered the people's ankles, covering the whole person inside, but they blocked the sand and dust tightly outside.
This is the first time I've seen it. The bitter words bit the candy bar and walked to me and looked at the scenery below.
"Mother, what do those people wear?"
"Oh, hat."
"Why haven't we seen it before?"
"The sand in Beijing is not as big as here."
"Oh, it's fun to block the sand."
I smiled: "Do you like it? If you like it, your mother will buy you one later. Anyway, after leaving the city, it will definitely be more windy and sandy, and you will need it."
As soon as she heard it, she also came to the spirit: "Mother, you take me out for a stroll, just so we can buy something fun. I just saw a lot of things on the street, which are not in Beijing."
It ’s rare that she still has such a mood. To be honest, our mother and daughter haven't been alone for a while. Besides, women seem to have no inherent resistance to shopping and shopping, so I agreed and took her out. Post House.
Soon after, he bought a cap and brought it with him.
This is also the first time I have put on such a hat. The thin silk around it is like a cloud covering my eyes. It looks a little hazy, but I really do n’t have to worry about the sand and dust coming from the wind. Others can't see their own faces, and they have a weird feeling, as if they have become an invisible person, they can laugh casually or make any expression without worrying about being seen.
This feeling is very novel. I am more excited than coquettish. I wear a hat and hold her with one hand. Two people swagger across the street in the street. She is also very fresh in this strange city. I bought a lot along the way. s things.
Just then, we both saw an ironsmith on the side of the road.
This place is located in a fortress. After all, unlike the Central Plains region, it is often harassed by some bandits. Therefore, most of the people in the city are practicing martial arts. There are also some simple weapons nearby. The iron shops are particularly popular and come along. Everyone could hear the sound of jingle jingling through the street.
This iron shop is different from other open-air iron shops. Obviously it is an old name. There is a large shop front to show what they have built. The door behind the shop is open, and you can see the iron shop inside. Twenty workers were knocking on the upper part of the road in red, with their bare tops clinking, sparks splattering, looking hot, and many unfinished swords hung on the shop floor, hitting each other by the wind, sending out A series of crisp sounds.
Not like a weapon, but rather a chic wind chime.
Miao Yan and I looked at the things displayed in the shop outside. The iron shop here not only builds weapons, but also some other novel gadgets displayed in the shop. You can see some delicate jug utensils and shapes. Very unique and very different from what I saw in the past.
At this moment, a person came down from the second floor, holding something in his arms, and glanced back behind him. No one in the iron shop paid attention to him, so he hurriedly went out, but he was very eloquent. I didn't see him in the bonnet, and as soon as I turned around, they ran into each other.
"Oops!"
The man sighed and fell on his back.
Miaoyan was also pretended to be crippled. Fortunately, he did not fall. He turned around and looked at it. It was a man who was about twenty or thirty years old. He was described as emaciated, very thin, with cheekbones on both sides of his face. Coaxing, and looking pale, gives a very uncomfortable feeling.
He fell to the ground and immediately cursed, "Who, it doesn't have long eyes!"
The coquettish words were also furious: "You don't have eyes, you dare to run into Ben--"
She didn't finish her words. I stretched her hands. Although there were guards following us not far behind, I didn't plan to let Miao Yan go out and be so swaggering. When she saw me and pulled her, she knew what I meant, so she moved behind. The word "Princess" swallowed.
The man said, "This is my place. Do you dare hit me and dare to scold me ?!"
As soon as I saw that the man had come downstairs, it should be this ironsmith who would not argue with him much more, only pulling the wonderful words: "Let's go."
However, before we turned around and left, a man came out from behind the iron shop, and said loudly, "What are you doing ?!"
It was an old man in his 70s, his hair was grey, but he was very burly and solid. He had just stepped out of the hot iron shop and was covered with sweat. A towel was hanging on his neck to wipe the sweat. As soon as he saw the man fell to the ground, a baggage fell beside him, and he immediately frowned: "What are you doing back ?!"
The man suddenly changed his face as soon as he saw him, and hurriedly reached out to pick up the bag and ran outside.
thief? !!
I flashed this thought in my head, but immediately felt wrong, but before I responded, the wonderful words had shouted to the guard who followed our guard not far from the shop: "The man is a thief, you must stop him quickly ! "
The Princess's palace opened, and those people dared to neglect, and rushed up immediately.
The man stood at the door with his baggage in his arms and was stopped by the guards. He panicked like a headless fly, and even panicked and wanted to run out of the middle of the gap between those people. Quickly, I saw the old man strode forward, holding the man's back collar with one arm, trying to hold a man like a chicken.
The guards stopped before, and Wonder Word walked over and clapped his hands, "Haha, you thief, see where you are fleeing!"
Just when she was happy, the man was trapped in the air by the old man, and said loudly: "Dad, what are you doing? How ugly, let me down!"
The coquettish words were dumbfounded: "Ah? You are--"
I walked behind her and supported her shoulder. The girl thought he was a thief when she saw the man running outside with a bag, but did not expect that the old man's tone of speaking to him was not completely strange.
The old man probably also hated iron and steel: "I don't have a son like you. You came back to steal my stuff! Give me down!"
After he said that, as soon as he shook his hand vigorously, the burden on the man's arms fell.
