Great Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 108 111 The Human Nature in the Snow and the Sudden Killing Intent

Zuo Ming stayed in the tribe and continued to be his teacher. Although the conditions were a bit difficult, he lived a passable life surrounded by countless bonfires.As for Deciduous Ye Jialan, it will be much more bitter.

For the past month, Luoye Jialan has been busy saving people everywhere.At first, she would come back every day, or bring some supplies, or send some patients back, but as time went on, the time she went out became longer and longer, and every time she came back, Is full of chaps and chilblains.

But even so, she still never stopped for half a step.Just yesterday, she dragged back ten stretchers by herself!
"Don't go out anymore! If you go on like this, you will have to put yourself in sooner or later! Look at you, your feet are rotten!"

Seeing Luoye Jialan come back in a mess again, Zuo Ming asked someone to get her a big basin of hot water to wash the wound on her foot, then frowned deeply and said.

"It's okay! This little injury, just apply some medicine! As long as you can save people, no matter how much you pay, it's worth it!"

Shaking her head slightly, Luoye Jialan sat on the chair, put her feet into the warm water, showed a comfortable expression, and then smiled softly.

It's just that she didn't smile, but when she smiled, her dry lips were instantly cracked, and a bright red line of blood flowed out.

Seeing her smiling so sweetly, Zuo Ming sighed deeply, took out a coarse handkerchief and walked over, then gently wiped the blood on her chin.

Zuo Ming's movements were very light and slow, which made Luoye Jialan stunned involuntarily.But then, she caught a glimpse of her own reflection in the washbasin, and lowered her head deeply again.

"What's wrong? You're still shy!"

Thinking that Luoye Jialan was shy, Zuo Ming joked.

"No! Get out! I'll do it myself!"

There was a burst of panic at first, and then Luoye Jialan snatched the handkerchief with an angry expression on her face, and pushed Zuo Ming away.

Pushed by her and staggered, Zuo Ming shook his head funny, and then straightened his face, "Don't go out these few days, rest for a few days first! I will go out with you when you recover from your injury! Don't you let me go out?" The brothers in the tribe help, saying that they are afraid that they will be implicated by me and encounter any danger. Don’t worry about me! Even the snowy mountains will not freeze me to death, and a heavy snow in this area will definitely not be able to do anything to me.”

Knowing that if he doesn't agree at this time, Zuo Ming will definitely be watched by others, so Luoye Jialan nodded helplessly, "Okay! If you have one more helper, you can save more people! But, you go Who will teach the children to read and write?"

"There are a lot of crooked talents in the tribe! Those who have nothing to do all day, it's better to let them put what they have learned into practice!" Zuo Ming said with a curl of his lips.

After finishing speaking, Zuo Ming walked out of the tent and went to see the conditions of those injured.

The wounded patients rescued by Luoye Jialan have all woken up at this moment, but their eyes are very dull, and their faces are full of despair.

No wonder they are like this, the cattle and sheep are gone, the horses are gone, and even their relatives have froze to death. Even if they are still alive now, they are just lingering.

Looking at their almost lifeless eyes, Zuo Ming's heart twitched violently.

In the past, he often heard people mention the hardships of the prairie in winter, but he always sneered at it, especially after hearing that the nomads risked their lives to plunder the border of the Tang Dynasty because their cattle and sheep were frozen to death and lacked food. He even smiled coldly, thinking that it was just an excuse made by the herdsmen in the Western Regions for their banditry.

However, seeing with his own eyes how miserable the winter in the prairie is, Zuo Ming finally understood the true meaning of the "difficulty" in those people's words.

However, when he was sympathetic, he was also somewhat resentful.I hate the ruthlessness of this world, and I also hate the indisputableness of the herdsmen.

Killing is killing after all, and looting is looting after all. No matter how legitimate the reason is, and no matter how high-sounding the excuse, it cannot change its "evil" nature!

What would the world be like if everyone robbed others because they were hungry or cold?
Of course, what he hates the most is the old people's obedience to stereotypes.

Since the nomadic road is so difficult, why can't these herdsmen make some changes?
The vast land of Western Turks is not without land suitable for farming, but until recently, only a small number of people started farming!And even so, those people's houses are still tents!
Tents can indeed block the wind, but it is difficult to keep the interior warm. If they can change the tents into wooden houses or even stone houses, and then stock up some hay and wood, what more?If it were to build a shed for cattle and sheep like the current Tuyuhun, that would be even more so.

In the final analysis, the thinking is still too rigid.Of course, there is no shortage of Turkic official shadows in this.

Because only a Turk who insists on nomadism is an indestructible Turk.Big countries like Tang and Persia, even if they defeated the Turks, it would be difficult to occupy them, because there is no reclaimed land and no well-built houses on their land. If they want to occupy this place, they have to follow the land reclamation Same, start from scratch.

Tuyuhun was lucky to have met such a rich man as Zuo Ming. He had no land, so he asked people to cultivate it, and he had no house, so he paid for the construction!
It can be said that without Zuo Ming's great handwriting, the people of Tuyuhun would not have such a happy life today.

After seeing all the wounded, Zuo Ming returned to the tent with a heavy heart, and then hid in layers of fur.

In fact, there are not many sheepskin blankets in the Jinshan tribe, but this is a class-conscious society after all, so the ruling class in a tribe like Zuo Ming naturally gets a lot of resources.

Zuo Ming couldn't refuse these things, because once he refused, it would be tantamount to slapping the entire Jinshan tribe's ruling class in the face, and then forcing them to follow his example.

But when Zuo Ming wandered outside, Yugu She came to Zuo Ming's tent in a fur suit.

"Anda! I've thought about it! At this moment, it's the best time for us to recruit new people and buy people's hearts! So in a few days, I want to send a few more people out with Luoye! Try to save more people and bring them back! It's just that the food in the tribe is a little short now, what do you think?"

After entering the tent, Yugushe sat in front of the fire and said straight.

After being interrupted by Yugushe, Zuo Ming also came back to his senses, and after a little startle, he nodded slowly, "This is very good, no matter what our starting point is, but saving people is ultimately A meritorious deed! As for food, if I can contact Datang, I can get some, but now that so many people have been sent out, there is no news at all, and I really have no choice."

"Yeah! This matter does not make sense. It is said that if you go east this way, as long as you reach Tingzhou, you will be on the border of the Tang Dynasty. There should be no danger! Or I will send some people out tomorrow to see See what happened over there."

The same frowned, wishing to make a way.

He urgently needs Datang's support now. If he has the backing of Datang, he is even sure to take over the vast land north of Daxue Mountain and east of Yibohai.

"Forget it! It's not an option to waste it like this. I have already decided that I will go out with Luoye in a few days! At that time, we will go all the way east and then turn south, just to see what happened in Tingzhou."

However, after hearing this, Zuo Ming shook his head slightly.

Hearing that Zuo Ming said that he wanted to go out with the fallen leaves, Yu Gushe was shocked and stopped him immediately.

He didn't know that Zuo Ming had an immortal body, so he was really worried that he would make a mistake on the way. Of course, he was even more afraid that Zuo Ming would take this opportunity to return to Datang, and then never return.

During this period of time, he is no longer as naive as before, and he has realized the difficulty of winning Khan's position.After leaving Zuo Ming, he didn't know if he still had the courage to continue walking under the pressure.

However, Zuo Ming has already made a decision, how can he change it?Tired of hearing what he said, Zuo Ming immediately drove him back to the tent.

This time he won't go home, but after such a long time, he must report to the family that he is safe!Otherwise, he would not be able to sleep well at night.

In a blink of an eye, three days flew by, and Luoye Jialan, whose foot injury was almost healed, embarked on her practice journey again, but this time, there was an extra Zuo Ming and a group of strong Turkic men.

This time, Luoye Jialan traveled all the way to the southeast according to Zuo Ming's request.

After traveling all the way, Zuo Ming finally realized how harmful this continuous heavy snow was.

Frozen human and animal skeletons can be seen everywhere along the road, and everyone's faces are full of fear and despair.

Human nature has been greatly tested at this time, and many people have given up their bottom line.

In order to survive, those who survived even tried to snatch the food supplies that Zuo Ming brought with them.For this reason, they killed Zuo Ming and three of them died!

The companions were killed, and the rest of the Turkic men were furious. They were about to kill the survivors immediately, but they were stopped by Luoye Jialan.For this reason, those Turkic men left with the corpse of their companions in a fit of anger.

Luoye Jialan didn't stop them, neither did Zuo Ming.They just watched them go away quietly.

However, at this time, a group of Tang people in cotton clothes suddenly appeared from the mountains and forests in the west. After those people appeared, they drove their horses and caught up with the Turkic men who wanted to leave, and then they said nothing. Said the killing started!
There are a total of 20 Tang people in this team, and all of them are highly skilled in martial arts. Killing people on horseback is like stepping on flat ground.

Those people's movements were too fast, Luoye Jialan wanted to ride his horse to stop them, but only halfway through, those Turkic men were already dead.

"Who are you? Whose subordinates are you?"

Zuo Ming was also furious at this time, so he asked immediately.
