Compared with the capital, the weather in Jiuyuan is still too cold, and the wind is also strong. The trees and city walls can block part of the wind, but they can’t keep the clouds billowing in the sky. People on the street wear leather clothes on their heads. Wearing a felt hat, the skin color on his face is similar to that on the beach.
With regard to the scenery and humanities of this place, the children’s impressions are dim. Their only memory is that they once rode on a sled, but they can’t find the same images anymore. Unfamiliar lingers in their hearts, one by one. He looked around, as if he wanted to find the overlap in the past.
In the past few years, Jiuyuan has changed a lot. Even Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan felt unfamiliar. They also watched them around to give a general evaluation in their hearts.
The streets in the city are criss-crossed, and the roads are wide and wide, but not smooth, and you can see the kick marks left by the animals after they have passed by.
Almost all the houses in the city are built in two-story styles, only the individual houses are a bit taller, including the Shuiyunjian restaurant here.
The felt tents that have existed in large numbers in the past can not be seen now. Perhaps only outside the north of the city can you experience the unique prairie style.
Due to the arrival of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, there were few pedestrians on the street, and they were controlled to go on other roads if they wanted to.
Zhang Xiaobao did not feel unhappy about this. There are too many local people in Jiuyuan, and there are too many people who come to trade in the grasslands and other places outside. The large number of people can easily provide cover for the caring people, and any danger must be eliminated.
Chatting with local officials, a group of people entered the Shuiyunjian restaurant. The building is four stories high. A small platform can be built on the top of the building. You can watch from above and down, and you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery. A telescope is better.
Nine children entered the building, grinning one by one, because there was a sleet a few days before the time to melt the snow. There was no rain today and the sun was not enough, but the wind was strong and the street was blown. When you step on it, you will feel two catties heavier immediately, and mud spots are often splashed on the trouser legs, and now many of them are dry and hard.
Under such conditions, let alone children, adults are equally uncomfortable walking, but there is no way. The conditions are such that the road cannot be repaired into cement, otherwise it will be repaired this year. It only needs to change the temperature continuously throughout the year. When the hoof of the livestock is trampled on, the concrete road will be broken into pieces.
Asphalt can be used, but the Ministry of Engineering can't give out a lot of it for Jiuyuan, so the locals had to keep their pavement habits.
"I didn't block the wind, my face was blowing like a knife cut." Xiao Yuan changed his writing and pants, rubbed his face vigorously with his hands, and was obviously frozen.
The guy who came to serve in the restaurant handed over a hot towel and skin care items. He smiled and explained: “It’s already pretty good. The wind is not blowing normally today. On weekdays, I didn’t blow my face like that. I really missed the outside walls and The woods are more than ten times uncomfortable, but fortunately they are all used to it."
"Ah." Xiao Yuan replied, and looked down through the fourth-floor window. There were really many people in the distance, and there was a large area of open space. Vaguely you could see a lot of animals and people squeezing around. , As if you could hear noisy screams.
"The two-story building is good, and the people have a better life." Xiao Yuan praised.
The man explained: "The two-story building is to prevent snow in the winter. I lived in a tent earlier or one floor. The snow is big, either collapsed or buried. It’s too dangerous to go to sleep at night. Well, there is no help from outsiders in the morning, no matter how crowded, the house is smaller, and it’s suffocated to death.
The animals raised in the family are also easy to freeze to death. Now on the second floor, when it snows, put the animals on the first floor, and the people on the second floor, plug in a few pipes to connect the first floor to the outside of the second floor, and the animals can also catch their breath.
When dawn comes, the people upstairs can go down from the outside to clean up the snow. It is more comfortable for people to live on the first floor and put a few basins in the house when high dryness is encountered. "
"Very smart." Zhang Qiang next to him said with satisfaction.
"The conditions are better. Since the city was built, the local people's life has been getting better and better. The weather in winter is not good. The nomads who are close to the outside hide in, and go out of the city to the north and east, and there are other small cities. The herdsmen's life is the animals, and half of the animals are frozen to death, they also have the heart to die.
In the past, when the Turks encountered severe disasters, they had no choice but to plunder us. Otherwise, we could not survive, and Tubo was almost the same. Now it is fine. It has been scattered and distributed to various places, leaving only a few dozen households in the area. "
Dude continued to teach the little ancestors in the family.
While talking, a gust of wind swept across, coupled with the billowing clouds in the sky, and the cold air outside, making the little guys feel that their hearts have become haze.
"It didn't seem to be uncomfortable at the beginning, I guess I just focused on playing." Xiaobei found that the situation was different from what he described in his heart before coming, and was very frustrated.
Xiao Yuan nodded in agreement, and said: "Then we must adapt as soon as possible, otherwise my brother and sister will send us back to the capital."
The other children got serious and stopped mentioning the previous hard work for fear that they would complain too much and be sent away.
As soon as Beckham's eyes turned, he began to praise the local humanities and natural landscape.
"Ah... what a beautiful cloud, flickering eastward; ah... what a beautiful person, flickering..."
"Then who, ask you, have the seeds I sent before been planted?" Xiao Yuan was scared, and asked his buddy quickly.
The guy hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that Xiaobei stopped the beautiful poem, he replied: "The seeds that were sent directly from the Bohai Governor’s Mansion in the spring of last year. Some of them are too short, with few seeds, and small particles, so they are sent to restaurants and sold as vegetables.
Planting again this year, a large area can be planted. The locals are looking forward to getting the seeds, and the herders want them too. But we didn't give them. They planted the seeds. They left. When they came back, the birds and insects were all eaten. "
Xiaobei forgot the poem just now and asked excitedly: "Is it corn that produces the most?"
The guy shook his head and nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, corn produces the most food, followed by potatoes, and sunflowers have the most seeds. This thing is interesting. It keeps changing with the sun. Why is it?"
The dude didn’t know, Xiao Hai pondered, and said, “It’s said that those who don’t follow the sun are dead. It’s as if all the people who didn’t follow the party died. Where is safe in the city, take us around. "
"Didn't you mean that the group of gentlemen don't party? Go out..." The guy looked down at the shoes that the little ancestors had just put on.
"Yes, so there are all villains in the party. If you don’t follow the villains, can they not count you? The brother’s story says so, but the sister has always disapproved. Our shoes are okay. The road is still difficult, such as Hongnong, who has a lot of water." After Xiaohai said this sentence, he was calling the shots, and the others did not object.
The guy thought about the story he hadn't heard before, so he hurriedly went to make arrangements, and Xiao Qi, a team of guards surrounded the little ancestors and went out.
Stepping on the muddy road, Beckham looked very excited. He carried a big bag behind him, the kind that was slung on his shoulders, and it was full of things. As he walked, he said, "Whether it is the desert or the grassland in the north, the wind is too big, wait. If the conditions are enough, we can make more small wind turbines and send them over. The people of Jiuyuan are also somewhat usable, but the river water is too strong to install our small hydroelectric generators, which is a pity.
The local people have a hard life. I am very worried that the children will be battered by the wind and give them some skin care products. They must be very happy, right? "
Xiao Yuan was stunned by the question. What Xiaobei asked was not a question. How could he answer it with simple negatives and affirmations? Under the gaze of Xiaobei's expectation, Xiaoyuan had to organize words and replied: "Sending skin care products is a right drop. Waiting for the conditions to build a small wind power generation is wrong. If the conditions are enough, it will be better."
What the children say, the adults don’t care, they are only responsible for the protection, all the way to the fourth area of Jiuyuancheng, this area is the gathering place of the families of local soldiers, no one with other status can rent and buy a house here. It's safe.
"His house, his house, choose his house. I can smell the barbecue. I didn't eat, so I solved it on the spot." Xiaobei saw a courtyard where the fur was dried on the door of a fence, and he threw the mud from his shoes to go in. It doesn’t matter whether people agree to eating barbecue.
In theory, it is very impolite behavior. If people just ignore you, if money is hard to buy, I am willing to care who you are, but in reality, such a phenomenon cannot happen.
Sure enough, after a while, the fence gate of the courtyard was opened by a small gap, and a head with horns was stretched out, and a small pink face came out afterwards. He was stunned, and did not wait for others to speak, "Wow!" With a sound, the fence door opened wide, and the little-faced owner sat down on the ground covered with yellow sand and exclaimed excitedly: "Beibei, what are you doing here? Great, we just roasted the meat, please eat it. ."
Beckham was also stunned, I haven't introduced myself yet, how did you guess it
The little girl sitting on the ground has stood up, patted the sand on her butt casually, and ran forward excitedly, grabbing the shocked Beckham's hand and jumping and jumping, and she did not forget to yell behind her violently: " Xiaobei and the others are here, hurry, hurry, don't let them run away."
"I, I haven't introduced myself... I..."
"No need to introduce, Xiaobei, it's you, the nine children protected by the Zhuangzhuang Miao No. 0 Team, who else besides you? Oh, the legendary one with the strongest combat power, the best fight, and only fifty-six people. Sure enough, there is Team Zero, and I finally saw it today."
When the little girl was talking, she already hugged Beckham, afraid that she would run away.
"Where? Where? Where is the zero team?" A whole group of children rushed out from the yard, both men and women, all with joyful faces. Obviously Zhang Wang's family is strong and strong. The temptation of Team Zero for them is quite big.
Beckham sighed and found that everyone has a strong sense of curiosity. The zero team led by Zhang Hu is indeed followed by him, but the current zero team is not the best to play. They are all old and the oldest. He is in his thirties, and the strength of Team Zero lies in experience and command.
Of course, one-on-one fights to the death, no one from any other team dares to say that they can win the zero team. People who have never seen blood will not be able to keep calm when facing the indifferent eyes of life and death.
As for how people recognize it, it’s very simple, the mark on the chest, fifty-six people, from number one to fifty-six numbers, but fortunately, the other party doesn’t know that there is also a zero number in the zero team, which is brother and Number of sisters united.
Thinking that she has a unique secret, Xiaobei smiled and said to the little girl who was holding her: "That's right, we are hungry and want to eat, let's go together, I brought you gifts."
"Really? Great, let's go, our roaster is delicious, come with me, come with me." The little girl took Beckham's hand and ran in.
When you enter the front yard, you can see a large row of meat skewers on the barbecue box, and there is a large animal grill next to it, with a lamb inside it, which is grilling.
Beckham swallowed and nodded with a smile. Just when she wanted to take out a gift, the little girl spoke first: "You are here in time, and we also have gifts for you."
