Glory all the way

Chapter 319 Reunion

The endless snow field seems to have not changed since ancient times, revealing a trace of eternal silence.

Being in it, I feel that I am as small as a dust, and the honor and disgrace of the past are all gone from my heart in an instant, and I don't care about it anymore.

Du Xuan breathed out, turned his head and waved to Bai Yingluo, pointed to the top of the distant snow mountain and said to her: "It is said that the Tianshan snow lotus grows there, and it takes 500 years to bloom. The place where it is raised will wither in twelve hours, unless a jade box made of thousand-year-old cold jade is found to put it in."

Thinking of the poison of Qianlixiang on Du Yuan's body that can only be completely dissolved by Tianshan Snow Lotus, Bai Yingluo sighed, "This shows how crazy Princess Qingcheng's heart is for Du Yuan. to destroy him."

Du Xuan smiled wryly, "Didn't you also say that it's very powerful for a woman to go crazy? Princess Qingcheng's ruthless heart can be regarded as the best among them."

When talking and panting, everyone exhaled a string of breaths, but they didn't feel cold on their bodies. The sun shone down, and everything in their sights glowed with a bright silver light, making people unable to move their eyes away.

While appreciating, a few black spots appeared in the distance, and they were still shouting something loudly.

When he got closer, he saw a pair of young men and women riding galloping horses, wearing animal skins and holding machetes in their hands.

In Du Xuan's mind, the scene of being assassinated by the Loulan people outside the gate of the capital appeared again.

Standing in front of Bai Yingluo blocking their mother and child, Du Xuan looked at the man who got off his horse and walked towards him, and asked alienatedly: "I don't know what advice my little brother has?"

A polite person will always make people feel a little good. The man said loudly in broken Chinese: "Hurry up and go, don't stay here for too long, staring at the snow for a long time, your eyes will go blind of."

Du Xuan was stunned, and suddenly remembered that he had seen such an example in an ancient book. At that time, people thought it was God's punishment for those people, but later discovered that no matter men, women, old or young, if they look at the white snow for a long time, they will Short-term blindness occurred, and in severe cases, the eyes became blind. Since then, I can no longer see the colorful world.

The book claims that this is snow blindness, but although it snows frequently in winter in the capital, it will melt in a short time, and there are many surrounding scenery, so it is not as monotonous as it is now.

Looking back, both Liusu and Liuying had red eyes, as if they had just shed tears, and Brother Yan was also rubbing his eyes and laying on Bai Yingluo's shoulders, feeling sleepy and lifeless, Du Xuan was startled, and cupped his hands and rushed The young man thanked, "Little brother, thank you, if you hadn't rushed to warn us, we might not be able to get out of this snow."

The man waved his hands with a smile, and when Du Xuan and his party got on the carriage, he and his female companion also got on the horse and led the way.

When it was dark, Du Xuan and his party followed the young couple to their village.

Knowing that Du Xuan came from the capital, the villagers were very enthusiastic. They built a bonfire in the open space in the middle of the yurt, and each brought wine and meat from their homes to entertain Du Xuan and the others.

Someone asked about things in the capital, and Du Xuan told them without any concealment. After a few hours, they became very familiar with each other. Du Xuan took the opportunity to ask about the way to Loulan.

After crossing the Tianshan Mountains and walking for a few days, you will reach the border of Loulan. Loulan is a small city. It takes less than ten days to get there from the border to the capital. I heard Du Xuan asked that some people who often travel to and from Loulan take I made a self-made blueprint, which marked several roads from here to Loulan. The main road is naturally longer, but if you take a small road, you will inevitably encounter robbers who occupy the mountain as king.

Along the way, such encounters happened from time to time, when Du Xuan and Bai Yingluo heard about it again, they would not be as panicked as they were at first.

After inquiring clearly, Du Xuan set out on the road early in the morning of the second day with the fresh water and dry food exchanged from them.

In mid-May, we finally arrived at Loulan.

At the entrance, there are all khaki city walls, even the bustling teahouses and wine shops on the street. They are not built high, but they have an antique and exotic style.

After finding an inn and settling up Bai Yingluo and her son, Du Xuan took Suiyuan and Lu Yao to the streets.

The street was very lively, and it was not much worse than in the capital of the Song Dynasty. After some inquiries, Du Xuan found a clothing store opened by a person from the Song Dynasty, and bought two sets of clothes for a group of six people and his brothers.

When going out, Du Xuan raised his eyes, and saw several children chasing and playing, one of them just looked at the little friend behind him, and bumped into Du Xuan in a daze.

Helping him up and patting the dirt on his knees, Du Xuan got up again, and found that his money bag was gone.

Lu Yao sighed with a smack of tongue: "Such a young man, with such neat skills, it can be seen that he is intelligent and talented. If he can come to practice martial arts, given time, he may not be a master of martial arts."

On the side, Suiyuan glared at him angrily, "Young master's purse was stolen, it's fine if you don't help catch the thief, and you still make sarcastic remarks?"

These two people were always bickering all day long when they were together, and it was relieved along the way. Du Xuan was too lazy to scold them, and the three of them hurried back to the inn.

In the evening, the little boy found Du Xuan, handed back the money bag with a shameful face, and handed Du Xuan a bamboo tube as thick as a thumb.

Open it, and the familiar handwriting is vivid on the paper.

Du Xuan sighed in surprise: "It's been less than a year since he came to Loulan, but now he has such abilities, he really shouldn't be underestimated."

The note was sent by the boy from the Duyuan faction, with the time, place and code words written on it.

Thinking of seeing him tomorrow night, Du Xuan was a little excited. He tossed and turned like a pancake all night, making Bai Yingluo unable to sleep peacefully because of the noise.

When he woke up the next morning, Du Xuan started to get ready.

After changing into Loulan's local clothes, he took out the medicine he had prepared and smeared it on his face, and then appeared in the bronze mirror. Du Xuan lost his former handsomeness and looked like an ordinary Loulan the people.

With such an appearance and such clothes, even if he walks among the crowd, no one will think that he is special, and no one will want to take a second look at him.

Bai Yingluo tilted her head and looked at Du Xuan like this, giggling and said: "Sure enough, I'm still superficial. If you had such a face, I think, I would definitely look down on you that day."

After all, Bai Yingluo seemed to be teased by her own words, she pursed her lips and laughed out of joy, while Brother Yan at the side looked at Du Xuan with a blank expression, as if she was a little puzzled why her father changed his appearance.

In the evening, Du Xuan went out alone.

The road map from the inn to Xiaoyaoju was drawn on the note, and Du Xuan had already engraved it in his mind. Although the sky was dark at the moment, it did not affect his judgment in the slightest. Du Xuan is a native of Loulan.

Walking through the streets and alleys, after a while, I came to a colorful alley, and I knew where it was at a glance.

Listening to the melodious music, looking at the nodding and bowed Mr. Gui standing at the door, Du Xuan looked around suspiciously, almost thinking that he remembered the wrong way.

After identifying them for a long time, Du Xuan walked into the alley hesitantly.

People kept warmly calling him all the way to his own courtyard, Du Xuan's face remained unchanged, but his heart was already beating drums, but after passing those brothels and deep in the alley, it suddenly became quiet.

Kankan walked for another quarter of an hour, and saw a quaint courtyard gate, which seemed to be the vermilion gate of an aristocratic family with a history of hundreds of years.

He stepped forward and knocked on the door, an old man hunched over and opened the door, Du Xuan said politely: "Baiyun Canggou, Xuanyuan Chunqiu. Du came to see the master of your mansion."

"Come with me……"

Du Xuan was secretly shocked by the old man's fluent Mandarin of Song Dynasty.

After entering the door, one can vaguely see that it is a beautifully repaired garden, with nine curved corridors, pavilions and pavilions, all of which reveal the graceful beauty of the south of the Yangtze River. Du Xuan was even more surprised, but he didn't show it at all on his face.

When he got to the main room of the second entrance, he saw the man in white clothes fluttering sitting in the middle of the courtyard playing the piano, and Du Xuan's eyes immediately burst into tears.

I used to think that after that farewell, I don't know when we will meet again in this life. Now, after more than a year, the two brothers finally meet again.

Du Xuan was excited, and his eyes became more and more eager. The person playing the piano in the courtyard seemed to feel it, and looked at Du Xuan with slightly raised eyebrows.

The sound of the zither stopped abruptly. Seeing the strange face following the old man, Du Yuan took a deep breath and said to the old man, "Uncle Fu, go down and rest. There will be no more distinguished guests coming tonight." gone."

Nodding his head, the old man turned his head to look at Du Xuan, bent his back and went in the direction he came from.

"Big brother..."

Getting up from behind the piano case, Du Yuan quickly stepped forward, hugging Du Xuan with some excitement.

Patting him on the shoulder affectionately, Du Xuan asked with concern: "Can the poison on your body be cured?"

Smiling and nodding, Du Yuan pulled Du Xuan into the room.

The room was filled with a faint fragrance, and all the furnishings on the antique shelves, as well as the tables and chairs, were all exquisite. Du Xuan sized it up and praised unabashedly: "You boy, it's all right, go to Loulan More than half a year, have you already set up such a family business?"

Laughing loudly, Du Yuanchong blinked at Du Xuan, "If I say that I made a bet with someone, are you trustworthy, big brother?"

Du Xuan was taken aback.

"This mansion is a courtyard of the Liuli King. It used to be used as a golden house to hide the charming. The night I arrived in Loulan, I met him in the gambling house. From Pai Gow to Sieve, we gambled for three days and three nights. He He didn't beat me in a game, and he couldn't figure it out in the end, knowing that I just arrived here and had no place to live, so he gave me this house as a gambling capital."

Du Yuan recalled the process of that day, and said a little funny.

Liuli King?
As soon as he heard this name, he was not a prince who had been formally sealed, and maybe he was not a member of the Loulan royal family. Thinking that he came here for the mystery of the two people's life experiences, Du Xuan asked in a deep voice: "Then, a member of the Loulan royal family, Have you seen it?"

Hearing this, Du Yuan also straightened his face.
