Biquge www.mtlnovel.com, the fastest update will not be disappointing, the latest chapter will not be disappointed!

A large open space outside the east gate of Wangcheng was crowded. More than 20,000 camels are carrying heavy suitcases filled with exotic treasures, more than 10,000 horses from the Western Regions, and more than a thousand products of special monsters not found in the Central Plains. More than 60,000 soldiers, more than 5,000 cavalrymen, and 10,000 tortoise artisans and other craftsmen, etc., looked closely. Bai Zhen took members of the royal family and officials of Guizi at the gate of the city to see off Lu Guang. Fouchati stood behind him and had no time to talk to the Lu family. He set his sights on me and Roche.

Last night he and Xiao Xuan said goodbye to us with their children, everyone cried. The two brothers embraced for the first time in their lives, but at the time of parting. The couple prepared a lot of clothing and money for us, and packed the carriage full.

Bai Zhen was politely saying goodbye to Lu Guang. Suddenly, a group of monks was crowded out of the crowd behind him, carrying a backpack, and hurriedly rushed to Rosh.

“Master, let us go.” There were hundreds of monks crying to Roche.

In fact, there are more than a hundred monks who have to follow Rosh. A few days before leaving, there were non-stop monks coming from Wangxin Temple, Queli Temple, Qite Temple and other temples of Guizi, and begged Rosh to bring them with them. There were thousands of them. Roche asked Lu Guang, but was refused. Lu Guang’s thoughts were easy to guess: he didn’t believe in the Buddha, and bringing monks was worthless to him, but consumed rations. And so many monks, only listen to Roche, in case there is a change along the way, wouldn’t Lu Guang be troublesome. The reason why he brought Roche was still not sure if Fu Jian could win. If Fu Jian is unharmed, he can also present Roche as a gift, which is also a mess.

Roche naturally understood Lu Guang’s thoughts, so in the days before leaving, he persuaded the monks to follow. I thought they would let them give up and don’t want so many people to insist today. Seeing that Lu Guang was already dissatisfied in his eyes, Rosh quickly stepped forward to persuade them, and finally let them cry and turned back.

With a whip, the front team started to move, and the seeing crowd burst into tears. Rosh’s face was pale, took my hand, and said goodbye to the Vshatti family. He took a deep breath and looked up at the blue sky of Guizi, as if he wanted to engrave this world into his mind forever. I looked at the deep attachment in his eyes, and my heart was sad. Squatted down and grabbed a handful of dirt into the handkerchief and handed it to him.

“This is Qizi’s soil, and it is carried on the body as if you saw your hometown.”

He took it, looked at it cherishly, wrapped it up seriously and put it in his arms. Then, we turned on the carriage. As the wheel moved forward slowly, I lifted the curtain and watched with Rosh Vrsativa in the cold wind of early spring in March. His clothing corner was blown up by the wind, and it was swaying one after another. The tall figure is getting smaller and smaller in the field of vision, and finally it is mixed in a group of black spots and cannot be distinguished. The sight is blurred by tears, farewell, Vrsati, I will always remember you. thank you……

The warm chest was close to me, he hugged my waist, and there was some crystal light in his eyes. I turned around and hugged him and let him enjoy the last tear in my arms for his hometown and for his loved ones. The carriage took us to the painful land where the chaos of the world was full of chaos. Since then, our destiny has been closely linked to the Central Plains.

In ancient times, if you traveled by horse-drawn carriage, you could walk an average of 30 kilometers per day. But our team is too large, with 20,000 camels and more than 60,000 infantrymen. The walking speed can only go up to 15 kilometers per day. No wonder it takes six months to arrive in Guzang. The road we took was along the southern section of the Silk Road along the edge of the Tarim Basin. This road has continued to the modern day and is marked as National Highway 314, from Toksun to the Khunjerab port at the border with Pakistan, and finally to India. This is the way Xuanzang westbound.

The desert solitary smoke is straight, the long river is setting sun. Along the way, you can see the most typical western landscape, the endless Gobi desert, and the Yadan landforms with different shapes. In the shallow water period, the riverbed along the road is mostly dried up. Because the soil is rich in minerals, these salt flats show a large colored irregular texture, shining dazzling light under the sun, so beautiful to hold your breath.

The sky outlines the endless Tianshan Mountains, and on the flat Gobi beach, there are drought-tolerant vegetation such as sea buckthorn and red willow. From time to time, you can see wild camels, wild donkeys, wild horses dangling in the distance. In these places, in the modern times, it was detected that the oil and gas are rich. The entire Gobi is a kowtow machine for extracting oil, and a natural gas gathering machine with a flame. In modern times, when I went to Kuche to investigate, I was driving on National Highway 314. In the wide field of vision, I was slowly pulling the head machine, which was full of emotions in the afterglow of the sunset.

When we arrived at Luntai, we had been in the Populus euphratica for several days. This is one of the largest and largest Populus euphratica forests in Xinjiang. Every October, the golden Populus euphratica dyes the sky golden. While in Luntai, I saw the ancient city and pavilion in the Han Dynasty. In the Western Han Dynasty, the army expedition, in order to solve the supply, the soldiers usually grow food and become self-sufficient. Such a step-by-step advancement of Tuntian spreads the military power of the Han throughout the Western Regions.

The ancient city of Kograk, the ancient city of Zulkut, and the city of Wulei are all Tuntian Acropolis in the Han Dynasty. And the most outposted King City of Guizi, Li Guangli, in Western Han Dynasty, twice exploded to Dawan, and when he passed the wheel country, he “attacked for a few days and slaughtered”, causing the wheel to die completely. We stayed overnight in the old city of Lunto, and there were only a few broken villages around. This slaughter has been going on for more than 400 years, but it still cannot restore a small country.

Since knowing the true identity of my future people, he has often asked me about the situation and knowledge after a thousand years. His IQ, comprehension ability, and trust in me made me not want to hide anything from him. So although the journey is hard, we have so much time to communicate every day. Let us make up for the vacancies of the previous decades. We can’t talk about the topic every day, and we can’t feel the pain on the road. I told him the basic geophysical, historical and meteorological knowledge about the uniqueness of the desert Gobi. I was surprised and even puzzled. I have completely opened my heart to him now, except for the price of my crossing…

It took a month to enter Yanqi territory. The first to enter is the iron gate at Yanqi’s most outpost. This pass established by the Han people stands on the west bank of the Peacock River. Zhang Jian was here twice when he left the western region. Ban Chao also passed by here, drinking horses by the Peacock River, so the Peacock River is also known as the Yinma River. This inland river, which originated from the end of Bosten Lake and ended in Lop Nur, gave birth to Loulan, the ancient civilization downstream.

In the era I live in, Loulan has decayed. Ten years later, the Eastern Jin monk Fa Xian traveled westwards and passed by Loulan. It was already “no birds on the ground, no beasts on the ground, all over the eyes, only the dead bones as the ears.” Asked Rosh, he shook his head and sighed. He said that when he was young, he heard people say that the Loulan River was diverted, the water was reduced, and the salinity accumulated. The abnormal climate caused the plague to run wild and most people died. The remaining people were forced to relocate. Loulan’s thousand-year-old country has dispersed in the turbidity…

We went north on Yanqi, and walked along the Peacock River all the way. The jade water was like a belt and the waves were clear, and we could not see the downstream of its outflow. It was two hundred kilometers away. It was Loulan buried by the yellow sand.

When it was less than a hundred miles from Yanqi Wangcheng, we entered a narrow valley under the afterglow of the sun, and Lu Guang ordered to camp and rest. I looked at the busy camping and suddenly realized that there will be a tragedy here… .
