"Settled down?"
"Yes, Lord, it's in the small tent where we store food next door."
Sixiang is a very considerate woman, This time when she went out, she specially prepared a lot of delicious food for Zheng Fan to take with her on the road. Whenever possible, she would pursue the exquisiteness of life as long as conditions allowed.
This is a woman who is interested in applying nail polish even before she is executed.
Zheng Fan nodded.
Six Niang knelt down next to Zheng Fan.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and said nothing, because they were only a tent away, and the sloppy man would definitely be able to hear whatever he wanted to hear.
It’s very embarrassing.
The other party’s surname is Shatuo.
And Qiqia earned his current rank of captain by beheading the leader of the Shatuo tribe.
In fact, when the other party said his last name, Zheng Fan was already a little desperate. He once thought that he had reached the point of bayonet.
Even if Zheng Fan said his name was "Fan Li" in the end, everyone in the military camp called him Captain Zheng...
Can he really hide it?
Zheng Fan even suspected that the other party already knew his identity, and also knew that his hands were stained with the blood of the Sha Tuo Department.
Also, is this guy really just joining the team escorting the birthday gang just to eat and drink?
The destination of this team is the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
Zheng Fan stared at the flickering candlelight in front of him,
At this moment,
he was obviously escorting the birthday party,
Suddenly I had the illusion that what I was escorting was a nuclear warhead.
"Rest."
In the end, Zheng Fan only said these three words.
Go to sleep,
When you wake up,
everything will be normal.
…………
Of course, this is a luxury.
Because when he woke up, Zheng Fan saw the sloppy man sitting in front of his bed.
Sixiang is rolling out noodles, and water is boiling in the pot.
Zheng Fan sat up. Seeing this, Siniang planned to get up and help Zheng Fan wash up.
Zheng Fan shook his head and signaled Siniang to continue preparing for breakfast, while he walked out of the tent with a basin in hand and squatted at the entrance of the tent.
Qingyan brushed his teeth. At first, after waking up in this world, he was really not used to it, but slowly, his mouth seemed to recognize the taste.
"Gulu gulu gulu..."
"Retreat!"
Put the towel into the cold water and wet it. Then rub it hard on your face.
When two groups of soldiers patrolling the camp passed by, they saluted Zheng Fan, and Zheng Fan also nodded to them.
In fact, I was thinking that this group of people might not be enough to serve as backers.Nothing was said.
After washing,
Zheng Fan returned to his tent.
The noodles are ready, the noodles are chewy and the noodles are chewy.
In the time it took Zheng Fan to finish one bowl, the sloppy man had already finished five.
It seems that the living conditions of the barbarians are really poor. Even such a master can't have enough to eat. Look at this kid who is so hungry that he is reincarnated like a starving ghost.
Zheng Fan thought jokingly in his heart that he could only be an "inner" strong person now.
After breakfast, the team began to set off again. The sloppy man followed Zheng Fan's suggestion and stayed in a carriage with Zheng Fan's tent and other supplies. Zheng Fan also provided a set of his own I gave him my sweatshirt to wear, and he wore it too.
After the hair and face are covered, it doesn’t look so sloppy, and because the sweatshirts Siniang made for Zheng Fan are very expensive, there is no need to worry about following Zheng Fan’s orders last night. Searching soldiers will become suspicious of him.
After getting back on the road, Zheng Fan rode at the front of the team, and Siniang followed Zheng Fan on horseback.
At this moment, Zheng Fan really had the idea of riding a horse and running away. Even if he lost everything, he could at least protect his own life.
But this idea is not too strong;
Even if Zheng Fan knows that once he is ready to run away, Siniang will definitely follow him and run away with him without saying anything. .
However, now that I have come to this world, I have seen a different scenery, met a truly terrifying strong man, and I am about to meet the most powerful giant in the north of the world, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion;
It was really a bit reluctant to run away in such a dejected manner.
Perhaps, deep down, I am still restless.
Not to the point where he would die if he heard about it in the morning, but he has a little Bourgeois mood of "the world is so big and I want to see it".
Lunch was dry food, and the team did not stop to eat. In this era, most people are still used to two meals a day. Of course, if the family is well-off, it must be three, four or even more meals.
So, the team stopped to set up camp at night, and everyone buried the pot to make rice.
Zheng Fan returned to his tent, where a slovenly man in a sweatshirt was already waiting there with a food bowl in his mouth, waiting for his meal.
Dinner was a big stew. During the day, the sentry rider went out to hunt some game and came back. Zheng Fan was naturally given the best piece of meat.
Add some hot pot seasoning, vermicelli and pickles. Although the dishes are not rich, considering the current environment, it is already very good.
No one of the three of them said anything, they just sat around the pot and ate silently.
Zheng Fan finished his meal first, walked out of the tent, and went directly to the carriage containing the snow wolf.
After hesitating for a moment, Zheng Fan opened the carriage door and bent down to get in.
Xu Wenzu was eating venison when he saw Zheng ZhengWhenever he comes in, he just smiles.
Because of his obvious physical appearance, Xu Wenzu basically stayed in the carriage for the past two days. This feeling must be uncomfortable.
The red snow wolf was still lying there feebly, as if it was about to die, but it would probably be fine until the gift was delivered tomorrow.
"We will probably arrive tomorrow afternoon. Sir, please be patient for a while."
If we had traveled quickly, it would have only taken one day from Hutou City to Zhenbeihou Mansion. , but because they were escorting the birthday gang, the team naturally couldn’t move faster.
Furthermore, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is not in Tuman City, it is not even in any city.
It is in the wild, it... is in the desert.
A hundred years ago, when the Yan State was fighting with the desert barbarians, Tumancheng was the front line of the Yan State’s fight against the barbarians;
But when the first generation of Zhenbei Hou was granted the title When guarding the north, he chose to build the Hou Mansion on an oasis far away from Tuman City.
At the foot of Yinshan Mountain, adjacent to Hengshui, a government office was built!
For the next hundred years, the Zhenbeihou lineage turned themselves into a knife, stabbing the desert barbarians in the waist.
"Yes."
Xu Wenzu responded, put down the venison in his hand, wiped his mouth, and said:
"Tomorrow night, Can I see the lady now?"
This is asking Zheng Fan.
Zheng Fan shook his head and said:
"Please forgive me for the offence. After arriving at the Marquis Mansion tomorrow, I will go see the lady. If the lady is busy tomorrow, she may... "
"Well, it doesn't matter. It's Madam's birthday. She must be busy with a lot of things. I'm not in a hurry."
Xu Wenzu is open-minded.
Zheng Fan nodded and continued: "Your Excellency, if you bear with me for one more day, I will enter the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow and you won't have to suffer here anymore."
"Haha, I'm here. It’s nice here, and you won’t feel lonely just talking to this beast during the day.
Oh, when we get to the Hou Mansion, I want to have another drink with your father, Zheng Chenggong!”
"My father must be extremely happy."
"Of course, hahaha..."
After Zheng Fan said a few more useless words, He got off the carriage and looked up at the bright moon in the sky while putting his hand on the wine bottle on his waist and stroking it gently.
The wine bag contained wine, and Siniang poisoned it. The poison was prepared by Xue San when she was at home, and she usually used it on her dagger.
This wine has still not been sent out.
Last night, Xu Wenzu ate roasted chicken, which was piping hot;
Tonight, he ate roasted venison, the game that the sentry cavalry brought back today.
This shows that in this team, besides himself, there are people taking care of Xu Wenzu, and the status of those who can distribute the venison is not low.
One of the five centurions of Wang DuanOr... is there someone else?
Zheng Fan reached out and knocked on his forehead. He would be arriving at the Hou Mansion tomorrow afternoon. It would be difficult to maintain his lies and forged identity.
"If you want to kill someone, just kill him."
The slovenly man's voice sounded from behind Zheng Fan.
Zheng Fan immediately trembled, and his body immediately released a black light, but the sloppy man pressed one hand on Zheng Fan's shoulder, and the next moment, the light on Zheng Fan was instantly suppressed. Go down.
I am very helpless. I have just entered the first grade. According to the normal routine, there should be constant low-grade minions or low-grade minions running up to me to tease Siniang or ridicule me and then I will be killed. Slap yourself in the face, and at the same time, passers-by will keep marveling at you.
The dream is very full, and the reality is so skinny;
But the sloppy man in front of him rubs himself back and forth like a glutinous rice dumpling.
However, Zheng Fan felt a lot more balanced when he thought that Mowan and Siniang had no room to display themselves in front of this sloppy man.
Maybe it’s because the strength gap between the two sides is too big, or maybe it’s a tacit understanding gained over a few meals.
Zheng Fan shook his head and said:
"It's inconvenient."
It's not that he doesn't want to kill, but if he takes action without being completely sure, trouble may occur. .
"Haha."
The sloppy man smiled and made no comment.
Zheng Fan saw something on his shoulder and said curiously:
"Is this it? Are you ready to leave?"
The sloppy man nodded, " Yes."
"Shall I give it to you?"
"Okay."
"..." Zheng Fan.
I was just being polite;
Zheng Fan and the sloppy man walked out of the camp together. Because Zheng Fan came forward, neither the patrols nor the soldiers at the gate of the camp stopped them.
After leaving the camp and reaching a slope, the sloppy man stopped.
Zheng Fan also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that the other party would abduct him.
The sloppy man sat on the floor and opened the package. There were wine glasses, food and some candles inside.
When Zheng Fan saw this, he also sat down.
The sloppy man first lit three candles,
and said:
“There are three kinds of barbarian sacrifices;
One is to worship the barbarian gods;
The second is to respect the totem;
The third is to respect the yellow sand."
As he said that, the sloppy man picked up a handful of yellow sand and sprinkled it on the candle. beside.
Who is this being sacrificed to?
Some food was placed on the table.
Then,
The sloppy man faced the candle, spread his hands upward on both sides, and then knelt down, his forehead pressed against the yellow sand that had just been sprinkled on the ground.
Zheng Fan saw this,
Exhaled,
also knelt down and kowtowed to the three candles.
Over there, the sloppy man had already stood up. Seeing that Zheng Fan was also kowtowing, with a somewhat obscure expression on his face, he asked:
" Why are you kowtowing?"
Zheng Fan didn't think it was anything, and replied:
"Our customs are as follows: when you see a futon or an altar table, no matter what kind of deity it is, Regardless of whether you know the Buddha or not, you can just kowtow to him and just use your head to express your gratitude."
In later generations, tourists would visit a city and go to church to pray in the morning. It is very common to go to the temple to burn incense in the afternoon and go to the Taoist temple to ask for fortune-telling in the evening.
The sloppy man smiled, nodded, and said, "It's not a loss."
Then,
The sloppy man stretched out his hand and put it on top Picked up the food and started eating.
"Hey, are you hungry?"
It was obviously not long after dinner.
The sloppy man nodded.
"No matter how hungry you are, you have to wait to eat the tribute. Let's wait until the person you are offering to enjoy it first."
The sloppy man did not stop his actions and continued to eat. De Huan waited until a piece of meat was eaten before he wiped his mouth with the sleeve of his sweater and said:
"He won't mind."
< p>"I don't mind, but who are you paying homage to?""Myself."
