The soldier named Lao Zhang smiled and said, "Did your kid sneak up to the checkpoint to see the beauties again? Tell you Li San, save your thoughts. I heard that the two golden silk birds are King Kong. People around the Queen Mother."
Another soldier pretended to be mysterious and said: "You probably don't know, these two golden silk birds are not simple. A caravan passed by there the day before yesterday, and a young man relied on the wealth of his family, and his words were a little frivolous. In the end, guess what?"
The soldier who had just started to speak repeatedly asked: "What's the matter?"
The soldier's voice suddenly became louder, and said, "As a result, he let the two golden birds be beaten violently, and the teeth of his mouth were all knocked off. From then on, he could only drink porridge like an old lady. Haha, haha... "
Sitting in the room, Liu Yu was eating fresh grapes and fruits while overhearing the soldiers' gossip, and chuckled from time to time. However, he couldn't laugh right away. The young soldier named Li San said again: "Zhu Heizi, what you said is nothing new. I ask you, do you know what the Queen Mother Kangju sent these two golden silk birds in the checkpoint? "
After a while of silence, Li San's voice rang again: "Tell you, this is a big secret. These two golden birds were ordered by the Queen Mother of Kangju to look for handsome young men here."
"It's impossible!" Zhu Heizi said with a smile, "You don't know yet, the Queen Mother Kangju and our Majesty are..."
Li San said disdainfully: "What do you know? The Queen Mother Kangju is young and young. Our Majesty can only come here in a few years. How can she stand it..."
After all, Lao Zhang is older and more serious, and he repeatedly said: "You two speak carefully, can this kind of thing be talked nonsense? If it reaches your Majesty's ears, this guy who eats will fall away. !"
The outside of the room suddenly fell silent, and they could no longer hear their chattering. It was probably frightened by Lao Zhang's words. Liu Yu had guessed that these two so-called golden silk birds were probably sent by the Queen Mother Kangju to look for him and Bian Zhang.
Although the story between Liu Xin and Ban Tuer was not hidden from Ma Yun and the others, Liu Yu was only a child in their eyes, and naturally it was impossible for him to know it. As for Bian Zhang, he didn't understand anything.
After all, Liu Yu was young, and he didn't understand many things. He couldn't help but worry, whether the story of running away from home had been spread, and the Queen Mother Kangju wanted to hold herself hostage. But as long as he passed Kangju, he was part of the Great Han Concession of Parthia. When he got there, he would have the opportunity to serve the country. He had walked so far and let him go back like this now. He was really not reconciled. Bian Zhang was already asleep beside him, but Liu Yu was tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
At dawn, the caravan packed up and left the barracks to move on. According to the daily itinerary, you will arrive at the border crossing of Kangju at dusk. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Kangju, Liu Yu felt guilty, pulled Bian Zhang a hand, and said, "Uncle Cui, I have a stomachache suddenly, or you should go first and don't wait for us."
Gao Lan stopped him and said with a sneer: "You two little guys, don't you want to escape. If your stomach hurts, then go and lie down in the car."
In fact, from the very beginning, Gao Lan had doubts about the identities of the brothers. However, Gao Lan never imagined that they would be Liu Xin's son. He only thought that they were two street gangsters. Perhaps the long wooden box contained the stolen goods. It's just that Gao Yuan's current identity is not embarrassing, he didn't report the thoughts of the brothers. However, Gao Lan insisted on the principle of not being harmful to others, and not being able to prevent others. In any case, he refused to let the brothers leave his sight.
Helpless, Liu Yu had to grab his stomach and climb into a food truck.
These days, the shopkeeper Cui and the others get along with them day and night, and the relationship is very harmonious, and they usually don't need them to do much work. But Liu Yu himself is very diligent and always rushes to move it with all his strength, so the guys like him very much. Hearing that his stomach hurts, someone had helped move the grain away, leaving a space, and spreading cotton pads on it. The sand in this area is relatively large, and there are grains around it, which can make him lie more comfortable. Bian Zhang refused to leave Liu Yu's side and naturally lay down.
The convoy continued to move forward. Suddenly a team of cavalry came and shouted: "All vehicles are pulled over, and they will be allowed to pass tomorrow morning!"
The little school who was sent to escort Cui and the others knew the cavalry team and quickly approached to negotiate, but was told that there was a group of food carts passing by in the army, even if their food was donated to the army, that wouldn't work. The little school was helpless, so he had to say sorry to the shopkeeper Cui, let them camp on the roadside, and went back to Dawan for business.
Setting up a camp is not a difficult task for the caravan, and this kind of situation where the village is not in front of the shop is also encountered in the past, and Gao Lanjiu is a good player in this regard in the army. Under Gao Lan's command, dozens of grain trucks formed a circle, and they were right as the wall of the village. A few tents were simply set up inside, and it was a solid camp. Compared with the camps of several other caravans around, this place can be said to be solid. In fact, they don't need to be so careful at all. The guards in the Kangju area and the concession have been replaced by the infantry of the Third Army. How can ordinary little thieves dare to run wild here.
But I heard that there is no need to clear the customs for the time being, Liu Yu was relieved for the time being, his stomach no longer hurts, and he jumped off the car to help do this and that. The simple camp here had just been built, and the road was dusty, and the brigade drove over.
The caravans were idle and crowded to the side of the road to watch. To their disappointment, these teams were not the mighty and mighty Dahan regular army, but a temporary team formed by the two old armies of Yuan and Cao. After Jia Xu's rectification, this temporary force has already looked a little bit, but compared with the regular army of the big man, the gap is still not to be calculated.
Gao Lan also hid in the crowd, watching this team in old-style armor pass by in front of him, feeling particularly complicated. He can also be regarded as a generation of famous generals, and many of them are soldiers he has brought. But he is so ashamed to meet his deceased now. For a long time, Gao Lan thought that the soldiers he brought out were elite soldiers, but now compared with Liu Xin's Dahan Army, he simply doesn't wear shoes.
Suddenly, two big men in the team caught Gao Lan's attention. As rivals for many years, Gao Lan, the two brothers Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan, couldn't be more familiar. Although Xiahoudun had a blindfold on his face, Gao Lan recognized it at a glance. Both are Liu Xin's opponents. Both Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were able to join the army again, and seemed to be captains, but he was rejected when he signed up to join the army, which made Gao Lan very upset. Gao Lan made up his mind that if he had a chance to go to the front line, he must do his best to let those who despise him see his own abilities.
Liu Yu did not huddle in the crowd to watch, because he found that Jia Xu was in this team. If he saw him, he would definitely not be able to hide, so he hurriedly dragged Bian Zhang into the tent until he had dinner. Did not dare to come out. Shopkeeper Cui only thought that his stomachache was guilty again, and he didn't suspect him, and arranged to send him some easy-to-digest meals.
There were more than a dozen caravans camped with them. Most of these caravans came from big men, and some came from countries such as Guishuang and Body Poison. Except for treasurer Cui, the caravan transported all food, the other caravans carried many valuables. Therefore, even if the Kangju border is in front, and there are no Han patrols around, these caravans still maintain a high level of vigilance, and each of them deploys young men and women to take turns on duty at night.
Shopkeeper Cui’s caravan is full of food. These materials are important to the army, but they are not attractive to the culprits. Moreover, their size is relatively small. Therefore, they did not deploy their staff to participate in the inspections organized by other caravans. A buddy was arranged to look out on the roof of the food truck to prevent the fire.
It was all right after one night. Before dawn, many caravans started to get busy. After the checkpoint is passed today, everyone will go to each other. Some will turn south to Guishuang and Santos. Most of the caravans will continue north to the concession. . In the past, more caravans would choose to go to Daqin to do business. However, a month ago, the imperial court had issued an order that all the roads to the north of the concession had been blocked. Not to mention going to Daqin, they could not even go to other places in Parthia.
Shopkeeper Cui’s caravan had nothing to prepare. Unlike other caravans, they unloaded all the valuables and put them into the tent. Now they need to repack the car. Shopkeeper Cui and their grains are always stacked on the cart, so they don't need to do any special actions, it's much easier than others.
Equally easy is the guy who was on the roof of the car yesterday who was in charge of looking at the fire prevention. He didn't know when he was already sitting there and fell asleep until the busy noise around him woke him up.
Liu Yu also got up early and helped the shopkeeper Cui and the guys to remove the tent and worked on it. Suddenly, he bent his waist with his hands in his belly again.
Upon seeing this, shopkeeper Cui asked with concern: "Little brother, does my stomach hurt again?"
Liu Yu furrowed his eyebrows, said nothing, and nodded vigorously.
Gao Lan curled his lips and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, it's up to you. Keep sleeping in your car."
The food truck remained the same as it was yesterday evening, and Liu Yu's comfortable nest can still keep out the wind and sand. With Bian Zhang's support, he climbed into the car feebly and lay down on the cotton pad that the guys had laid for him. There were food parcels around him, and no one else saw him except Bian Zhang. Liu Yu couldn't help but stretched out comfortably, fell asleep with a "plop", and then heard a muffled hum.
