Chapter 3 On the Road(1/2)

Outside the frontier, outside the fortress.

What is the fortress? Of course it is the Great Wall, which is the big wall called by Shang Zhen and his partners.

In the eyes of the Han border residents, the Great Wall is undoubtedly a forbidden zone, because the Great Wall can always remind them of the hideousness of the Hu people, the blood under the scimitar and the cry of children.

But just one night, under the illumination of the raiders' torches and driven by the scimitar with a cold light, Shang Zhen finally climbed the Great Wall for the first time.

The Great Wall is not all made of bricks and stones. At least the Great Wall that Shang Zhen saw was a thick earth wall that was smashed.

The so-called tamper is to tie things like wooden trunks tightly with ropes.

Then, while pulling the rope, he pulled the wooden pier and used the downward force of the wooden pier to smash the soft ground.

The same is true for smashing the wall.

But such a piece of earth wall that was smashed and rammed could block the Hu people's fast horses from raiding.

As for why the Hu people came here this time, it was because the "big wall" of this place collapsed!

Just when Shang Zhen was disappointed with the Great Wall he saw, he heard someone shouting behind him: "Run quickly! I won't come back if I pass!"

When he turned around, he saw several adults in the village running to both sides from the collapsed earth slope.

Are they going to run for their lives?

Shang Zhen was stunned, but then he shook his head so well for the first time in his life.

Where to escape?

Even though your legs are longer than those of my small stool, do you really think that the Hu people holding torches and scimitars on both sides are vegetarian?

Sure enough, in this dark night that was different from usual, the sound of Hu people's horse hooves rose.

Then the torch immediately dragged a red light into the eyes of bystanders like Shang Zhen.

Then, Shang Zhen saw the full moon scimitar drew an arc of light under the torch.

Then, there was blood light, the kind of blood light that was falling from the head with blood splattering three steps!

Hanminli shouted and cried, but what could be more than a scimitar of the Hu people?

So, after a moment of commotion, the team finally moved forward.

Walking overnight, when the torches were extinguished, it was already dawn, and the tired Han people had given up on their idea of ​​going home.

This place is already a land of hu.

"The sky is vast and the wilderness is vast. The wind blows the grass and sees cattle and sheep. The sky is like a dome covering the four fields."

Of course Shang Zhen knew about this poem.

But at least he has not seen the scene of abundant water and grass in the Hu area.

If you say that the barbaric land cannot be considered a barren land without any grass, but the sparse grass is like the beard of a mouse.

As for the distance, there are also thousands of miles of Gobi.

Although Shang Zhen is still young, from the perspective of a sheepherder, it is obviously unrealistic to use such a grassland to feed a large number of cattle and sheep.

Shang Zhen's mood has become complicated.

This is not the period of large-scale war between the Hu and Han people.

The whole thing was very simple. A section of the Great Wall collapsed, and the Hu people came over and robbed a village of the Han people.

When the Han border troops discovered it, the Hu people who had completed the robbery had retreated.

The Hu people would bring them robbed people to unknown places, and naturally the Han border troops were unable to find them, and no one would go to find them.

At most, the border army will use manpower to rebuild the collapsed Great Wall.

Then, there may be survivors in a few years, such as Shang Zhen’s parents, who would say that there is a Yukou village in a certain place.

The Hu people snatched away all the people in the village, pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, including my small stool, and then they never came back.

This is the only place that made Shang Zhen feel at ease when his parents were not kidnapped by the Hu people.

Although my father is dull, he is not the kind of stupid person. He goes to save his mother who is hiding in the cellar in the house.

My father’s correct way to escape should be to lift the stone slab covering the cellar and jump into the cellar to hide with my mother.

The house is built with a grass roof. If you want to come, the roof will be burned out quickly even if it is burned down. You will never roast your father and mother into the kind of beggar chicken.

As for myself, I am just a sheep-herding baby. Wherever I go, I am not herding sheep? I can still escape back if I have the chance in the future.

So it was in this kind of difficulty in walking that others were crying sadly, but Shang Zhen was already observing the situation around him.

The first thing he noticed was of course the Hu people.

The Hu people had high eye sockets and stuffy eyes, but they were all big, with a big nose, a big mouth, a big cheekbones, and a big mouth.

This looks different from us Han people.

There are really wolf teeth hanging around the neck. There is no essential difference between wolf teeth and dog teeth, it is just that wolf teeth are longer than dog teeth.

Perhaps Shang Zhen stared at the Hu man riding on the horse beside him for a long time and was noticed by the Hu man.

I don’t know what this Hu man was thinking, but he just bared his teeth at Shang Zhen!

Shang Zhen couldn't figure out whether he was laughing at him or scaring him, but he felt that the white teeth of this Hu man were much scarier than that of the wolf!

Shang Zhen was so scared that he quickly turned his head and looked forward.

Only then did he notice that Xi Tang and Xi Ya were walking not far ahead of him.

Xiya is Xitang’s sister, and the two of them were also caught by Hu Ren!

Shang Zhen really wanted to catch up and go with Xi Tang Xiya now, but then he thought of the white teeth of the Hu man beside him.

Forget it, I will have a chance to be together in the future.

Finally, Shang Zhen was in a daze, and he could only follow the big slip and continue walking.

No one knows where the Hu people will take them. It must be a place that prevents them from returning to the Great Wall!

Shang Zhen moved forward mechanically, feeling sleepy.

Don't fall asleep, Shang Zhen thought, but his brain was no longer under control.

This time I will not dream of that big bird again, right?

If you were really a big bird, how good it would be, you wouldn't have run to this place where the bird wouldn't poop.

Shang Zhen walked like a puppet, thinking in a daze.

At this time, the Qingming in his still consciousness found that he was about to dream again.

What I expected was that the dream I had this time changed.

I no longer turned into a big bird, but I became a warrior in armor!

Do you still have a change of style when dreaming?

Shang Zhen was a little surprised in his remaining consciousness.

I don’t know what kind of dream I will have this time?

But Shang Zhen was thinking, when he suddenly felt a pain in his back.

He screamed "ah", and a sudden pain made him wake up after a thrill!

He subconsciously looked back.

At this time, he saw a snake-like shadow flying in the air.

So he turned around like a conditioned reflex and jumped forward with a "whisper"!

Shang Zhen himself didn't know that he turned around so quickly, and he had never lived so quickly in his teenage life!

Why did he jump so fast?

Because the shadow flying in the air is a whip!

For more than ten years, Shang Zhen has been herding sheep. How can he not know what the whip is?

Since he was herding the sheep, he had more whip when he hugged himself and his mother to sleep!

And just as Shang Zhen jumped, the whip shadow hit back, but this time it was empty!

At the same time, Shang Zhen felt a burning pain on his back!

I almost fell asleep just now but was whipped by the Hu man with white teeth!

At this time, Shang Zhen felt a sense of anger rising from the bottom of his heart.

To be honest, he hated the Hu people who broke into his village in the middle of the night and killed some people in the village.

But for a young man like him, he is more afraid.

And subconsciously, he felt that his parents should be safe, so he didn't feel that he was hateful to the Hu people.

But this time it was different, the whip was whipping on me!

This is a pain in the skin.
