"At that time, my adopted father was a small barbarian in the Great Zhou Kingdom. After picking me up, he left the army because the army was not allowed to bring his family. For me, he went through a lot of hardships and traveled through mountains and rivers to the Tang Dynasty, and lived there."

"When I was five years old, I was very lucky. I met my master. Because of my appearance, I usually live in the mountains and never go to places with many people. Many people who see me regard me as a monster and even want to kill me. However, when I met my master, he did not show any surprise. He just looked at me quietly for a while, then pulled his adoptive father aside. The two talked for a long time, and then his adoptive father handed me over to the master and asked me to leave with him."

"I have lived with my master for more than ten years. When I was nineteen years old, my master asked me to go down the mountain to find my adopted father. To be honest, although my adoptive father saved me, in my mind, my master was more like my father. But I also know that if I hadn't an adoptive father, I would have died in the desolate border. Therefore, the adoptive father's position in my heart is still irreplaceable."

"When I returned to my foster father, he was already the commander of the garrison in a local area. In the following days, in addition to helping my foster father do some things, I was studying the records given to me by my foster father. In it, there were both words written in the language of this place and records written in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, I knew very clearly what happened after my father arrived in the Great Zhou Dynasty and settled. Moreover, from the message before my father died, I understood my life experience and identity."

"With that manuscript and the map depicted by my father along the way, I found this place successfully, and with the ID card left by my father, I found my family. I lived here for a year and not only learned the language here, but also understood the situation here. For my family and to fulfill my father's unfulfilled wish, I stepped into the Tang Dynasty again and prepared to transport the weapons of the Tang Dynasty back through my adoptive father."

"But I encountered that flood, so my itinerary was delayed. After the flood, the adoptive father began to occupy the surroundings with his strength. Although I did not agree with his approach, at that time, I could not leave him, so I stayed by his side and then met you."

"Since his adoptive father failed, he has become disheartened. Because his legs are disabled, he is so depressed at home that his health has become very poor. In desperation, I moved my family and prepared to leave the place that made him sad and settle here."

"After more than two months of trekking, I finally returned to my hometown once. However, I didn't expect that there had been a big change in the past few years since I left. When I left, the city lord was my uncle, but when I came back, I realized that this place had been occupied by the nearby Yunsha City Lord. In order to occupy the place for a long time, they not only collected all the food, but also killed all the members of my family, so as not to make a comeback from our family."

"When I arrived here, it happened to be shortly after the Yunsha City army retreated. After I received the news, all the leaders of the garrison lieutenant generals garrison were killed, and then they successfully took over the city. Then they organized the army to fight with Yunsha City. Just two days ago, we had just ended a new battle outside the city, so our defense was a little tighter."

Li Ming sat there quietly, listening to the West and talking about everything in one breath. He didn't say a word in the middle, but his heart was filled with shock. If it weren't for the West, he really didn't know that there was such a large piece of desolate land in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty. Moreover, it was obvious that the white people lived here. So, according to the modern geographical location, this should be the Arab generation, but is it still the geographical structure on the earth? Li Ming was not sure at all. From the geography of the Tang Dynasty, he could not find any geographical terrain and structure that was the same as in modern society. Therefore, he could never use the geographical terrain on the earth to identify the current location.

In addition, due to limited time, the story of Xilai is very simple, and there are many things that make Li Ming very puzzled. However, he does not have time to ask in detail. After all, he still has more than 2,000 subordinates struggling in the desert. The most important topic is to solve their survival.

Therefore, after Xilai finished speaking in one breath, Li Ming pondered for a while, and then said, "To be honest, what Brother Xilai said shocked me very much. I didn't expect there were so many changes here. But I would like to emphasize again that I have absolutely no malice to Brother Xilai this time. My purpose is just to return to the Tang Dynasty smoothly, so I have no intention of getting involved here. You also know that the beautiful rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty are simply not comparable to your barren land. Please believe this."

Xilai quietly forgot Li Ming's eyes, then nodded and said, "I believe you say this. With your strength, you will not like this desolate place. However, you still want me to sponsor your troops. I'm afraid this is what you want the most. But you also know that in this deserted desert and no grass grows, food and water are so important that I can't give it to you for no reason. Therefore, you must have enough exchange conditions."

Li Ming sighed slightly, stood up and said, "Although your words are not unreasonable, there is really nothing in my hand that can be exchanged with you except gold, silver and jewelry. Although this is your territory, it is not a solution to stay in this isolated place all year round. The living and living conditions here are too harsh. Therefore, I suggest whether to open a place in my place, such as, I will give you a few cities and let your people move there to live there. Compared to this, the Tang Dynasty can be regarded as a paradise. You can see what this suggestion is."

Xilai smiled bitterly, then shook his head and said, "This is simply impossible. Although it is barren, it is the birthplace of my ancestors. I cannot throw it away. Besides, even if I agree with your suggestion, it is thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty. Now most of the cities are old, weak, women and children. Haven't you ever thought about how much supplies you need to travel along the way? I really have some doubts about your suggestion."

Li Ming smiled and said confidently: "Brother Xilai, don't worry, my suggestion will definitely work. Although this is your hometown, I don't think you want your people to stay poor and be poor all the time. You should think about them. As for the issue of supply along the way, I have considered it before I put forward this suggestion. Although you are very weak now, you at least have the most basic survival materials. Therefore, this is your capital. What about me? Although my two thousand personal guards have strong combat power, they are currently short of food and water. Therefore, we are

So I can help each other. I think so. I will help you clear the obstacles along the way and help you pacify other cities. Then, you are responsible for supplying me with food and water. This is our exchange condition. You see it fair enough. Even if you don’t want to relocate your people to the Tang Dynasty, then I can also clear other enemies for you so that you will no longer be troubled by war in the future. To be honest, this is because I met you, so I made such a suggestion. In fact, if I do this, my losses may be very large. My personal guards will inevitably suffer losses. If this city lord is not you

It is very likely that I will forcibly seize it, and my losses will be much smaller. I believe you know, I am not bragging." To be honest, Li Ming was very poor. According to Li Ming's idea, he wanted to forcibly seize the city, but after listening to Xilai's words, his ideas changed a little. At present, he was like a frog jumping out of the well. Suddenly he felt that the world in front of him was so big that he suddenly had boundless ambitions in his heart. He suddenly felt that only limiting his eyes to the Tang Dynasty was like a frog in the well.

However, he had decided to live in this time and space, so why should he only limit his vision to the Tang Dynasty? Why can't he focus on the entire space? Suddenly, an inflatable ambition suddenly rose in his heart, causing him to make this decision suddenly. Although he didn't know how helpful Xilai could to him at present, Xilai was a local native. If he wins over him, it might be of any benefit in the future. Li Ming is now able to consider very long-term issues. Therefore, at this critical moment, he will not miss this opportunity.

Hearing Li Ming's very attractive suggestion, Xilai's eyes that had always been very indifferent suddenly lit up. He rose up and stepped in front of Li Ming a few steps, moved his shoulders tightly with his hands, and then asked loudly in a trembling voice: "What you said just now is true? You didn't lie to me? Are you willing to help me defeat my enemies?"

Li Ming smiled slightly, reached out and patted Xilai's back of his hand, and said, "Don't worry, Brother Xilai, I, Li Ming, never regret what I said. This is a condition of exchange. We each take what we need, so you don't have to be too excited."

Xilai suddenly smiled, then showed a embarrassed expression, looking at Li Ming and said, "You don't need to comfort me like this. I know that I have taken a big advantage in this matter, but I will remember your favors. You don't know that these battles have caused me to suffer heavy losses. At present, there are only less than 3,000 soldiers available in my hands. If the enemy attacks again, I may not be able to withstand it."
