Chapter 402: Grassland Storm "Sneeze" Chen Daolin sneezed fiercely.
Of course, Darlinggo didn't know that his identity had been exposed because of a small mistake.
I don't know that at this moment, the mistress of the tulip family in Loulan City is cursing herself through gritted teeth.
The reason for his sneezing was actually just that the wind and sand were too big.
Lu Gao's "sleep therapy" is indeed very effective, the only regret is that he sleeps too much.
When Chen Daolin woke up for the third time, he found that he and Lu Gao were already in the desert.
He reacted immediately, and Lu Gao had already walked out of the border of the Roland Empire with himself In the entire Roland Continent, there is only one place where there is a desert.
From the territory of the Tulip family of the empire, go further northwest, through a natural gap in the northwest of the Kilimaro Mountains in the empire, which is commonly known as the "Northwest Corridor", from this corridor canyon across the Kilimaro Mountains, it is considered to have left the border of the Roland Empire.
Outside the Northwest Corridor, you will enter a desert area that is not too small and small, and this desert area used to be a buffer zone between the Roland Empire and the steppe aliens.
The more this desert is, the more it officially enters the northwest grassland, and comes to the pasture where these nomads live.
Chen Daolin sat on the horse's back, his body undulating and bumping with the horse's back, swaying and looking at the sky.
The yellow sand is all over the sky, and this summer when you run into the desert, it is simply the rhythm of looking for abuse, especially in the evening, when there is a strong wind, it seems that there is a small sandstorm coming.
Although the mouth and nose have been covered with a cloth, they still can't resist the sand from burrowing into their mouths, but after a long time, they feel that their mouths are full of sand, and their noses are uncomfortable.
"I said" Chen Daolin couldn't help but complain loudly to Lu Gao: "Are you a top powerhouse, you can even break through space and teleport over long distances, where do you want to take me, you can do it in minutes, why travel so long distances and eat sand here" Lu Gao rode a horse in front of Chen Daolin, and when he heard Brother Darling shouting, he turned his head and glanced at this guy: "First, it takes a lot of effort to cut the space.
Second, don't you think that if you take shortcuts in everything, you will miss a lot of scenery Third, don't you think that basking in the sun here, blowing the wind, and letting the sand massage your skin actually feels quite a unique flavor Fourth Lao Tzu is willing, you bite me" “” Hearing the last sentence Lu Gao said, Chen Daolin was speechless.
This guy is mentally ill That's it, if you don't have the ability to tear down the eaves, you should lower your proud head Blowing this wind and sand full of otherworldly style, Chen Daolin finally couldn't stand it.
He ripped off the mask on his face, damn it, he ate sand anyway Poor and bored, probably because of the grief and indignation in his heart, Brother Darling was happy, and simply let go of his voice and sang.
"Ask you how much sorrow you can have, the goddess kicks you and doesn't look back How ugly can you be, with a crooked nose and slanted eyes like a dog Ask how much worry you can have, and you can get two taels of oil out of one fart Ask how much bitterness you can have, and you deserve to masturbate yourself for the rest of your life Ask how many injuries you can have, and find out that you are using light before pushing" Chen Daolin sang hoarsely, Lu Gao listened to it in front, and then looked back at this guy: "You ghost crying wolf, what are you singing?"
Chen Daolin smiled humbly: "I am singing the praises of your great festival" Lu Gao and others, as soon as he saw this guy's sneer, he knew that this guy's singing was definitely not a good thing, and most of it was a vicious curse to himself.
And Lu Gao's response was also straightforward and rude He grabbed the horsewhip, and with a bang, the whip was whipped Chen Daolin Although he wanted to hide, but seeing the horsewhip on his body, his body was instantly locked by an invisible force, and he couldn't move at all.
"Put away your fangs and teeth, and if you dare to scream any more, the next whip will fall on your face."
Chen Daolin had no choice but to shut up and remain silent, but the slander in his heart was three times more powerful.
In the afternoon of the next day, I finally walked out of the desert.
I watched as some sparse vegetation gradually appeared on the ground, and slowly I could see some green, and the further I went, the desolation around me gradually faded.
In the afternoon, the two of them were already on the prairie on horseback Chen Daolin has not been to the Celestial Empire in the real world of the grassland, and most of the traditional grassland areas in the north have been sandy due to environmental damage.
This kind of green grass is like the sea, and the endless scenery suddenly makes Chen Daolin feel infinite emotion in his heart, and he only feels that looking at this grassland from afar, even his mind is much broader.
Lu Gao seemed to be excited, and suddenly he let out a shout, kicked the horse's belly hard, and galloped forward Chen Daolin also came to be interested, his equestrian skills have improved a lot, at least in this kind of open and unobstructed place, the horse gallop is also competent, seeing Lu Gao galloping away, Chen Daolin also shouted, urging the horses to run and chase after him.
When a man is on horseback, when the horse runs at full speed, it is like sitting on the crest of a wave, up and down.
Chen Daolin only felt that the wind was whistling in his ears, and there was a strong smell of grass in his mouth and nose, and he became more and more excited.
Watching Lu Gao run farther and farther, quickly pulling away the distance, Chen Daolin was refreshed for a while, and finally slowly slowed down his horse's speed and slowly walked on this grassland.
He didn't want to take the opportunity to escape with Yi Lugao's ability, even if he ran farther, if he dared to take the opportunity to escape, he would definitely be caught and beaten.
The steppe was more sparsely populated than the northwest of the empire, and a day of horseback riding did not necessarily lead to a herdsman's family.
Lu Gao seemed to be extremely familiar with the grassland, and took Chen Daolin all the way to the depths of the grassland.
After only one night's walk, in the morning, I came across a small tribe of herdsmen.
The tribe is obviously very small, with only seven or eight families, and there are only a few dozen people in total, including adults and children.
However, there were a lot of cattle, sheep and horses, and Chen Daolin took a cursory glance and saw that there were at least a thousand herds of livestock driven in the distance The two approached the tribe, and two young herdsmen rode over on horseback, and when the two approached, Chen Daolin found that these two "young people" could only be regarded as half-grown children, but these herdsmen worked all year round and were very precocious.
Especially a man who rides a dark horse with broad shoulders, and thinks that he must be a good man when he grows up.
As soon as the two and a half children approached, they asked a few words out loud, and Lu Gao walked ahead and replied in the foreign language of the steppe.
I don't know what Lu Gao said, but after the two and a half children heard it, they suddenly became much more enthusiastic, shouted loudly, and led the two into the tribe.
When the two came to the tent and dismounted, they were greeted by herdsmen, who talked to the two and a half children, and then someone soon came to take away Chen Daolin and Lu Gao's horses.
Lu Gao didn't stop him, but just strode into the tent with his hands in his hands.
Seeing Lu Gao like this, Chen Daolin naturally relaxed and followed him into the tent.
The herdsmen's tents were filled with a peculiar stench, like the strong smell of livestock's fur.
But Chen Daolin naturally didn't care about this, and sat on a piece of felt with Lu Gao, and two blushing women brought up two bowls of turbid liquid, Chen Daolin glanced at it, and seemed to smell a little wine, but looking at the turbid color, he hesitated a little.
Lu Gao laughed, took a sip and drank it all, then put down the bowl and glanced at Chen Daolin with a frown.

Chen Daolin sighed, and drank it like Lu Gao, only to find that it was not as unpleasant as he imagined.
This is indeed wine, but the degree is too low, and the taste in the mouth is a bit like rice wine drunk in the real world, but it is not so sweet, but more sour, and there is a milky smell.
Obviously, there is no surplus grain on the grassland to make wine, these wines are probably those bad wines sold from the Roland Empire, and after being sold to the grasslands, these herdsmen don't know what processing they have done, most of them are adding some mare's milk or goat's milk or something.
Chen Daolin and Lu Gao were warmly welcomed by the herdsmen, who gave them some food such as jerky and flour cakes, but the peculiar "milk wine" was not delivered.
Chen Daolin was grateful, but also secretly relieved in his heart.
After coming to the Roland Empire, Chen Daolin said that he had come all the way, even if he migrated with tens of thousands of people in the northwestern Nulin Province, and the road was hard, he never treated his mouth badly.
He's a magician, and he's stocked with a lot of supplies in his storage ring, and he never stops eating along the way.
Nowadays, this inferior milk wine is really difficult for Darlinggo to eat.
Lu Gao saw it in his eyes and sneered: "I don't know the hearts of good people, do you think that this wine can be drunk by anyone on the grassland, hum, the grassland does not produce grain, so naturally there is no way to make wine, and those low-grade inferior wines sold from the Roland Empire can be sold at a high price on the grassland."
But the men on the grassland are addicted to alcohol and can't afford to drink it, so the bad wine they bought can only be mixed with light, or added mare's milk and goat's milk to drink.
Even so, ordinary herdsmen's families, such bad wine is not drunk every day, only occasionally, the head of the household can drink a bowl by himself, and the rest of the family does not have this treatment.
It's just that the people here are hospitable, and they can't give everything they have to the guests, so we drank these two bowls of wine, but we were afraid that the owner of this herdsman would have to endure it for ten days and not be able to drink it anymore. ” Chen Daolin's eyes widened: "So precious" "What do you say," Lu Gao said coldly: "The grassland people are pitiful, they were born in this land, and they produce very little grain.
Although there is wine in the Roland Empire, no matter how cheap the wine is, it has been sold all the way here, and the cost of transportation along the way is too great, and the cost is getting higher and higher.
On the grassland, the wine of the most inferior Roland Empire can be exchanged for ten fat sheep in a small barrel, and we have two bowls, and we have drunk half of the sheep. ” Seeing Chen Daolin bow his head and remain silent, Lu Gaocai sighed: "Knowing that it is not easy for others, don't live up to the kindness of others." ” In fact, Chen Daolin, a slut, is sighing, he is simply thinking quickly in his heart The wine in the grassland is so expensive, and the wine sold here is so profitable, if I wait for my grain harvest and sell the wine here, wouldn't it be possible to make a lot of money If Lu Gao knew what this guy thought, he was afraid that he would kick this slut out of the tent with one kick.
Chen Daolin thought for a while before he raised his head and said with a smile: "You should also look like a Roland person, why do you seem to have such feelings for this grassland person?"
Lu Gao snorted, his face turned cold, Chen Daolin thought that he was going to get angry again, and felt that he was going to suffer again, but after Lu Gao snorted, he sighed again, and his tone was rarely calm: "I don't know where I was born at all, I was in the Daisetsuzan when I was very young, and for as long as I can remember, I've known that I was on the Daisetsuzan Mountains.
When I was young, I often secretly ran down the mountain with my brothers and sisters to find local herdsmen to exchange for something fun and delicious.
So I never thought of myself as an outsider. ” Chen Daolin listened, and finally felt a little strange in his heart.
This ruthless and unruly weirdo, as if he has rarely revealed a bit of humanity at this moment.
The owner of this herdsman family is extremely hospitable.
During the meal, the host personally came to accompany the two and talked for a while.
The owner of this herdsman is a man in his thirties, but because of his hard work, he looks as if he is almost fifty years old, but his body is very strong.
What surprised Chen Daolin even more was that the owner of this household could actually speak Roland for more than a hundred years, the Tulip family was in the prairie and was dominant, and a large number of Roland caravans entered and exited the grassland, and gradually the grassland was civilized, especially here is the edge of the grassland, close to the desert area, and the herdsmen here have more contact with the Roland people, so it is not too unusual to speak some Roland language.
The owner's name is Moisa, with the typical bold surname of the grassland herdsmen, when the three of them were eating, the women and children of the family were driven out of the tent, Chen Daolin saw two and a half children hiding outside the tent, secretly looking at the food on the table, with a blank look.
He couldn't bear it in his heart, so he grabbed a roast leg of lamb and beckoned to the two children.
The two children were obviously hungry, but they gritted their teeth hard and refused to come up, especially the older one, and grabbed their younger brother hard, and then the two simply turned around and ran away.
Chen Daolin sighed, put down the leg of mutton, and had already made up his mind in his heart that he would not treat the master of the household badly when he left.
Lu Gao chatted with this herdsman named Moisa there and couldn't see that this strong man with a strange surname was particularly pleasant in the face of these ordinary grassland herdsmen, and between his words and attitudes, he didn't treat Chen Dao with all kinds of bad things, and the two chatted about the happy place, and the herdsman even raised his hand and patted Lu Gao on the shoulder a few times.
This move almost didn't make Chen Daolin's eyes fall "It seems that the last day has not been very good," said Lu Gao, and then suddenly asked, "This is close to the desert, and there are caravans of the Rolands, so it should be" Moisa sighed, frowned tightly, slapped his thigh, and said indignantly: "This summer, the caravan of the Roland people is half less than in previous years.
I didn't bring as much as I did in previous years.
And we need less and less iron tools.
I heard that it was the new king who offended the tulip owner in the east.
If you continue like this, if you can't buy enough salt before autumn, and when it snows, you'll be sad this winter.
There are also some cattle and sheep, if there is no merchant to buy them, I am afraid that before the winter, a batch will be slaughtered. ” Chen Daolin was puzzled when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask: "Why do you want to slaughter it?"
Moisa glanced at Chen Daolin, first frowned, and then smiled: "When the guests came to the grassland for the first time to spend the winter, no one had anything to eat, the grass withered, and we could only pick up the strongest ones to feed the cattle and sheep, and those who were weaker had to be slaughtered in order not to waste food." ” Chen Daolin nodded, finally understood.
There is no refrigerator or other freezing storage technology in this world.
Even in winter, when a large number of cattle and sheep are slaughtered, they will rot over time.
Moreover, although there are some methods such as curing meat, if the Roland caravan does not sell enough salt or spices, the meat cannot be salted, and the cattle and sheep slaughtered at that time can only be eaten by themselves.
But the family tried desperately to eat as much as they could, and in the end they wasted it, so they had to throw it all away.
As soon as Chen Daolin's heart moved, he secretly kept this matter in his heart.
"There seems to be a lot of news on the grassland recently," Lu Gao seemed to quietly pick up a bowl of milk tea and take a sip: "I heard that the flag is being erected in the royal court in the west." ” When Moisa heard this, the sadness on his face became thicker and thicker, he put down the bowl heavily, and said in a low voice: "The new king of the royal court has sent envoys to run all over the grassland, and almost all the tribes have received the will of the king of the grassland, and I heard that more than a dozen tribes have accepted the will of the king of the grassland, and sent the most well-armed warriors to the royal court to assemble.
We are far away from the royal court, but there is no movement for the time being.
But if it takes a few more days, we will not be able to get supplies for the winter, but I am afraid that even I will have to ride a horse with a bow and arrows, and take my two sons to serve in the royal court together.
After all, if you work for the King of the Prairie, you can still get some spoils. ” Chen Daolin was curious and asked, "Is this going to be a war, who is the grassland king going to fight, who is there a tribal rebellion?"
Moisa's expression suddenly became strange, and he looked at Chen Daolin and did not speak.

Lu Gao said coldly: "Who else can you beat."
First fight those small tribes who don't listen to the king of the steppe, and rob them of their supplies to survive the winter.
If those small tribes are exhausted and there are not enough supplies for the winter, then there is only one way to the east."
To the east Chen Daolin's heart jumped Isn't that going to fight the Roland Empire, to be precise, it's going to fight the Tulip Family However, isn't the Tulip family very famous on the grassland, and the King of the Prairie has to look at the Tulip family's face.
Lu Gao shook his head: "If everyone can eat their stomachs, then it's easy to say anything."
But if you are hungry, then you can't take care of anything that is prestige or not.
Struggling to survive is the number one priority.
It's really come to that point, hehe, what's more, the new king of the grassland generation seems to have a relationship with the Tulip family, but it is not as harmonious as in previous years. ” There seems to be something going on here.
Chen Daolin made a judgment, but Lu Gao didn't say anything, and he didn't want to ask too much.
However, Chen Daolin made a decision in his heart, after he went back this time, he must think of sending more people to inquire about the news here in the grassland.
It seems that this place is a very potential financial resource area.
As for whether the steppe people will really go east to invade the Roland Empire, Chen Daolin is not worried at all.
The dignified Tulip family is in front of him, what kind of power is the Tulip family afraid of, if he can't even stop these grassland barbarians, wouldn't he laugh off his big teeth.
Lu Gao chatted with Moisa for a while, and suddenly asked again: "Has the conscription order of the Golden-headed Wolf King's court been issued, and all the tribes have obeyed this Golden-headed Wolf King, so do you know what the White King means, and he also supports the Steppe King to start a war?"
Moisa's face suddenly turned pale, his hands were folded, he said something in his mouth, his face was very pious, and then he said slowly: "The great white king has not issued any decrees.
It's just that I heard from the messengers in the past that the envoy of the Prairie King went to the White King's tent, and after he returned, the Prairie King issued a conscription order, but there was no news from the White King.
It is said that since the White King did not object, he was in favor. ” White King This title made Chen Daolin stunned.
On the grassland, in addition to the grassland king, there is another white king to be continued.
