Chapter 528
Liangzhou, the most northwest and most remote state in the Jin Dynasty, has a vast land and few people, and the environment is harsh.

Liangzhou is several times larger than Yunzhou, but its population is less than half that of Yunzhou, and most of them live in the east. The farther west you go, the less people there are.

In fact, the environment in Liangzhou is too harsh. There is a large mountain near the border of Yunzhou in the east, which blocks most of the water vapor from the sea like a watershed. After passing the mountain, the climate suddenly becomes dry.

In the land close to the mountains to the east, there is still some cultivated land at the foot of the mountains, and there are still large-scale cities and towns. Further to the west is the vast grassland, where only some nomads live by water and grass. Going deeper, even the grass no longer grows. Deserts and wastelands remain.

In the vast wilderness, the drier it goes west, and the colder it goes north, it is no longer suitable for human survival. Large areas are no-man's land, and only sporadic water sources have formed oases, but some tribes and even tribes have formed. small town.

After crossing the border of Yunzhou, we left the territory of the Jin Dynasty and arrived at the barren land. It is said that at the end of the wasteland, there are some lands with lush water and grass, and there are different big forces entrenched to establish their own civilized countries. Those who do not belong to China within.

For example, the most famous Guifang is an exotic kingdom deep in the desert. It is said that it has a population of one million and dozens of cities.It's just that the desert is dangerous, and it is difficult for mortals to cross. Only sporadic merchants pass through, forming a vague business route.

On the border of Liangzhou, most of them were merchants who went to and from Hudi to buy wool and horses, and sell utensils and tea, and built several border cities.

There are also some great powers that live in seclusion. Although they are also of Chinese descent, they have profound backgrounds. Seeing the disciples walking down the mountain like gods gradually turned into a legend on the grassland.

Liangzhou border, desert.

The desert is not a desert. There are no continuous sand dunes and overwhelming yellow sand, but only thin sandy soil and large expanses of bare rocks. They look bare and dark, and they are veritable forbidden areas for life.

The sun has set to the west, and the temperature is getting colder.

It is difficult to distinguish spring, summer, autumn and winter in the desert, but it is divided into day and night. A day's morning and evening seem to experience a year's cold and heat.Even though it is almost April, the temperature drops sharply at night after being exposed to the sun during the day, like an ice cellar, and the night wind is like a knife. Unprepared travelers will never survive.

"Help... help..."

In the lee behind a boulder, someone moaned intermittently.

He had been moaning intermittently for a long time, and his voice was hoarse. He moaned from day to night, and when he saw night, he already felt the biting cold, and there was a bit of despair in his moans.

At this time, he felt a beam of light approaching, which seemed to be a lamp. The man was overjoyed and shouted with all his strength, "Help!"

Someone said: "I just said that I heard you right, there are really people."

The footsteps approached, and the light finally shone on the underground man, but he was a fat man, and he could see that he was well dressed, like a rich businessman, but now he was covered in sand and was in a mess.His left leg was actually broken, it was empty below the knee, and the blood was splattered. It was obvious that he had been injured not long ago, but he just wrapped it up with the torn skirt to barely stop the bleeding.

This person was seriously injured and still struggled and moaned for most of the day, his will to survive was quite strong.

"Tsk, how miserable."

The visitor let out a sigh.

The fat rich businessman took a peek at the person who came, and there were two people, both young, dressed in light blue clothes, one was rather handsome but dark-skinned, the other was ordinary-looking, and he could forget it when he saw it.With the insight of this rich businessman, he can tell at a glance that these are the boy servants of two wealthy families, and he can even guess the temperament of the two with a glance:

The handsome one is more arrogant, and the average-looking one should be more honest.

But in short, he is not a dangerous person like a bandit, he doesn't look murderous, and young people have a better chance of showing extra kindness than experienced veterans.

The fat rich businessman heaved a sigh of relief, and moaned: "Help... I was robbed by bandits, my property... my family is gone, help me, I will repay you..."

The handsome boy looked at him carefully, took off the water bag from his waist, and handed it to him.

The rich businessman was overjoyed, endured the pain, took it, and drank it.

Although he was already thirsty, he didn't drink heavily after receiving the water. He wet his lips with water, took another sip and held it in his mouth for a while before swallowing it, and then he drank it in small sips. Rich.

The handsome boy said: "We don't care if we save you or not, so how about it, you come with us to see the young master."

The rich businessman said obediently: "Yes, please introduce me." He touched his body, took out a gold bead from his pocket, and gave it to the boy servant.

The handsome boy said with a smile: "Stop doing this, don't tell me..."

At this time, the ordinary boy servant next to him stretched out his hand, took the golden bead, and said, "Brother Jiang, take it, why don't you want the free money? We saved his life, isn't it worth these yellow and white things?"

The handsome boy was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "That's right. Horses don't eat night grass and don't get fat. Is your leg chopped off too?"

The rich businessman breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they had accepted them. He almost fainted, and said: "It's... a bandit! Such a ruthless bandit, he killed all of my people. If I didn't have something to escape, It's almost over, if I didn't meet two living Bodhisattvas..."

The handsome boy said, "Alone?"

The wealthy businessman said: "Yes, yes, a lone bandit! You can't judge by appearance, there is such a fierce one-legged bandit in the Gobi! Two young masters, I must remind you young masters to be careful."

The handsome boy servant said: "Interesting, if there is really a big thief in this desert who can hurt us, I would like to see it." He reached out to find a bottle and was about to open it when the ordinary boy servant next to him said: "Mynah, use mine."

After all, he took out the medicine bottle and poured out a pill with a strong medicinal fragrance.

The wealthy businessman had already seen that the two boy servants were well-proportioned and energetic, and they must have martial arts. Seeing that the wound medicine they took out was full of fragrance, it must be a secret medicine from the Jianghu, and he was even more sure that the "young master" must be from the Jianghu. The noble son of which family or faction thought to himself: What do these little slaves know about the sky and the earth?After learning a few martial arts, your nostrils will turn up, thinking that the sky is the boss and the earth is the second child, and you will not be able to cry when that wicked woman comes to your door.

Although secretly contemptuous of the two people's ignorance, but for their own sake, it is better not to be approached by that person again, and the medicine has to be taken, so he quickly took it and took the medicine with the water bag, and suddenly felt a burst of heat moving to the limbs and bones, The pain is greatly reduced.

He cautiously said: "What a miraculous elixir! Thank you two young masters for helping me! I am taking Qianmiao Pills that seem to be produced by Zijin Academy. Could it be that your master is Gaodi from Zijin Academy..."

The ordinary boy servant suddenly grabbed him, carried the fat body on his shoulders, and said: "How can there be so much nonsense? Go and talk to our young master with me."

The rich businessman heaved a sigh of relief, and he carried him out from behind the boulder. Although he was trembling, he soon found that the boy servant was walking steadily, carrying his body of nearly two hundred catties without shaking at all. He was secretly surprised. I thought: This kid is at least a strong man, wouldn't he be a knight?
What is the identity of this master at such a young age to use knights as servants?
This time I met an expert.

At this time, night has fallen, and the desert is dark and dead.Only the handsome boy servant lit a lantern in front to illuminate the way forward.

Although the rich businessman is obese, he has just been injured and was blown by the cold night wind. He only felt that his bones were cold, and he wanted to ask the lights to be closer for warmth, but he was quite aware of current affairs and had already noticed that. A handsome boy servant who is arrogant but actually kind-hearted, this plain-looking boy servant seems to be silent, but he is actually quite assertive, hard-hearted, and doesn't like himself, so he is carried on his shoulders by this person, keeping himself safe and not saying a word Dare to say.

After walking for a while and turning around a small hill, I saw a light shining on it.

It turned out that a camp had been set up behind the hill.

There are simple and complete fences around the camp, with torches on them, and the lights are bright.The gravel in the camp was cleared away, and a large open space was created, in which a bonfire was lit.A group of people are gathering around the bonfire, and the prey roasted on the fire is sizzling.The smell of meat mixed with the smell of wine is captivating in the night wind.

There was a big tent in the camp, made of leather, embroidered with gold thread, topped with pearls, the end was very luxurious, and there were two small tents around it, although not as grand as the big tent, they were also sturdy and tidy, surpassing those used by ordinary travelers.There is actually a simple stable on one side of the camp, where animals are tied and parked in the carriage, and stone walls are piled up to keep warm.

This is a small but well-equipped and thoughtful camp. The fact that the camp has been tidied up like this just after nightfall shows that the owner is of extraordinary strength.

Seeing this scene in the camp, the rich businessman burst into tears—this is such a familiar scene!Before today, just yesterday, I also had such a camp, such a bonfire, such a warm tent.I could have had a barbecue with wine, hugged left and right in the desert to keep warm and slept until dawn!
Damn bitch, you ruined yourself for life!
At this time, the handsome boy servant approached the bonfire and said something to one of them, and after a while he saw the middleman nodded.

The boy servant who was carrying him stepped forward, unloaded him in front of the fire, and said, "Master, this is the man."

The wealthy businessman looked up, and saw the "young master" in the middle who was 27 or [-] years old, dressed in rich clothes, and looked pampered, sitting on the left and right were two young women, also wrapped in silk and satin, surrounded by pearls and emerald greens, Each has its own enchantment, one pours wine, the other holds a plate of fruit, and feeds it to the young master's mouth.

What was especially surprising was that next to the young master lay a fox with snow-like fur. It looked like a precious species, and it was lazily dozing by the fire.

There are people on both sides, old and young, and there seem to be several children.The rich businessman didn't dare to look any further, regardless of the injury on his leg, he saluted and said: "The villain Jin Yutang Bao Renwu has seen the young master."

The young master let out a "hmm", casually took a sip of wine from the woman's hand, and said, "I heard that you are in business? Have you been robbed?"

The wealthy businessman was already sad, but at this moment, he burst into tears and said: "The villain is so miserable. He was originally a businessman who did his duty. He ran around here and there to do some small business and eat a hard meal. Who would have thought that Being recruited by others, murdered and stolen, now the petty wealth is gone, the team is also dispersed, and people are disabled, I don’t know how to live in the future..."

The young master hummed and said, "You don't want to live anymore? Do you want me to give you a good time?"

The rich businessman was startled, and hurriedly said: "No, no, ants are greedy for life, villain..."

At this time, a voice said from the side: "A businessman who does his duty? Jin Yutang? Are you a human tooth?"
