Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 181 Dunhuang Market
Among the eight parts of Tianlong, Xuzhu is Xixia's son-in-law, but in the era of Shendiao, he has never heard of such a big sect as the Xiaoyao School.

"Could it be possible that Vulture Palace also perished with Xixia's demise?" Li Qingwei thought to himself.

This possibility cannot be ruled out.

But it doesn't rule out that the Vulture Palace just doesn't care about Jianghu affairs. After all, the Hexi Corridor and Liangzhou at that time were the sphere of influence of the Xixia Kingdom.

In addition, Xu Zhu solved the 36 holes and 72 island life and death talismans, and returned their free bodies.However, due to Song's incompetence, he has been unable to regain the lost ground, causing the Xiaoyao faction far away in Tianshan to lose contact with the Central Plains martial arts.This is not impossible.

Now that he has arrived here, Li Qingwei wants to go to Tianshan Mountain to see if the Vulture Palace and the Xiaoyao Sect still exist.If so, he wants to see if he can beat the master of Vulture Palace.

After all, in Tianlong Babu, Xiaoyao Sanlao is one of the ceiling-level martial arts masters.

Even if their descendants are a little worse in martial arts, I'm afraid they won't be so bad.

After making some repairs in the Xingqing Mansion, Li Qingwei brought all the food and water, and headed towards Yumen Pass along the trade road. After leaving Yumen Pass, Tianshan Mountain was within easy reach.

Ever since Li Qingwei left the Xingqing Mansion and went all the way west, he never saw a Han person again.Even Han puppet troops are very rare.

When he got here, he also changed his usual satin clothes, put on night clothes, bamboo hat and mask.

Li Qingwei became more and more angry. The territory of the former Han Dynasty had now completely fallen into the hands of Hu Di. Sooner or later, he would take it back again.

Li Qing was slightly angry. After three days, he finally arrived at Dunhuang City, the hub to the Western Regions.

Once an important town for the Tang Dynasty to defend against the Turks, it has now become a small border town.

And after leaving Dunhuang City, it is Yumen Pass.This is the transit point of the Silk Road.

Looking at the thousands of miles of yellow sand outside the city, Li Qingwei couldn't help but sigh.

there!Over there lie the bones of countless heroes of the Tang Dynasty!
Even he, a science student, understood the story of the Tang Anxi Army deeply.In the past, the Tubo people abandoned their diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty, took advantage of the fire, and occupied the Hexi Corridor.As a result, the connection between the mainland and the Anxi Protectorate was interrupted.

It is like Xixia cutting off the connection between the Western Regions and the Central Plains.

The Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty did not choose to rebel, nor did it take care of itself.But stick to the last person.

Dunhuang City is an important fortress. Although the Mongolian Kingdom now dominates northern Central Asia, the geographical location here is not so important, but it is still a metropolis not inferior to Xingqing Mansion.

And Li Qingwei's attire is not strange here, there are strange people everywhere.

There is a beautiful bearded girl with blond hair and blue eyes.A Semuren with a white beard and a big beard.There are also dark-skinned Tianzhu people wearing Baotou.There are also many Kunlun slaves tied up in a string, waiting for their new masters. (Kunlun slaves are not black, but dark-skinned Southeast Asians)

Out of curiosity, Li Qingwei took a look around the market in Dunhuang. There was no benevolence and morality here, and the management of the market by the Mongols was also very chaotic.

It's just that theft and robbery are not allowed here. As for what these merchants sell here, they don't care at all.

Anyway, Li Qingwei opened his eyes this time, the market here has all kinds of rare and exotic things.

Herbs include ginseng from Changbai Mountain, snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain, and safflower from XZ.There are even things like Zihe carts.

Then there are all kinds of exotic animals, but the most sold ones are camels.After all, after leaving Yumen Pass, there will be thousands of miles of yellow sand.Camels are more durable than horses in the desert.

Therefore, there are some businessmen who specifically exchange camels for horses here to make a profit.

But the most prosperous is the slave trade, where a large number of slaves stand there, accepting bids from everyone.

Among them were Kunlun slaves as laborers, and prisoners of war.The fate of these people is self-evident, either dying of illness or exhaustion.

There are also a large number of kidnapped Hu women, and the traffickers standing on the stage caress them frivolously, and even invite the audience to come to the stage to inspect the goods.

The so-called inspection is nothing more than some obscene actions to pick and choose the figures and looks of these women.Then decide whether to buy or not.

Li Qingwei stood silently among the bidding crowd, watching all this with cold eyes.

He can't help it, this is the fate of subjugated slaves.Although he has enough money to buy these slaves, these barbarians.Even without money, he can directly grab it.I believe no one here can stop him.

But this can only save them for a while, and these people are not from the Central Plains, at most Li Qingwei sympathized with them.

What's more, he is not as compassionate as the Virgin Mary to pity foreigners.

With this spare money, he is more willing to help the victims in the Central Plains.

Seeing this scene, Li Qingwei felt the importance of being in a powerful country for the first time.

If you don't have the protection of the country, then you are a subjugated slave to be bullied!
At that time, you are no longer human, you are just a slave, just an item that can be auctioned off and bullied.

Just like these poor people on stage.

In the era before Li Qingwei, there was a lie called "I don't care about the rise of great powers, I only care about the dignity of small people."

Li Qingwei has only one sentence for this, and that is "go to NM".

Seeing the scene in front of him, Li Qingwei understood that without the rise of a big country, how can we talk about the dignity of the small people?
Seeing this situation, Li Qingwei only believes in one sentence: "Dignity is only on the edge of the sword! Truth is only within the range of the cannon!"

Just as Li Qingwei was about to turn around and leave, a woman in white was pulled up by her hair, but this person caught Li Qingwei's attention.

Although the skin is fair like a barbarian woman and she wears a veil, the woman's hair and pupils are all black.

Different from those barbarian women who were auctioned before, they were blond, brown-haired, and blue-eyed.

Black eyes and black hair are the physical characteristics of East Asians.

Maybe the woman who was dragged onto the stage was a Central Plains native. Others, Li Qingwei, could give him a reason to ignore it, but seeing the Central Plains suffer, he couldn't ignore it.

The woman was dragged by her hair and thrown onto the stage. Her hands were tightly bound by iron chains, and her white wrists were bloodstained.And the wrist injury has begun to inflame.

And there were many scars on her body, some of which seemed to be caused by whipping, and these were only new wounds. There were still some old wounds on the woman's body, all of which were bruised or purple, which should have been injured by blunt objects.

The lips under the woman's veil have dried up, and her body and spirit have been greatly tortured.After she was dragged up, she knelt on the ground weakly, panting heavily.

At this time, the trafficker took off her veil, and the people present let out a burst of exclamation.
