Chapter 428 Chidan City
Xiao Rensan originally wanted to have a few drinks, but he couldn't stand the leftist sects of the Huns when drinking. The custom of the local wine shop is that several people invest to buy a large bag of horse milk wine, and then sit down in a circle according to their age. Then each person takes turns to fill a large mouthful of horse milk wine until a bag of horse milk wine is finished.
The local winery only sells wine, and if you want to serve wine, you need the guests to bring it themselves. Xiao Rensan cannot stand this rough wine style, and he really doesn't like the smell of milk wine. It's rare that he doesn't drink with Bai Wuqiu and the others at the moment.
Because Hu Leng'er's magic was sealed, he did not dare to offend Gui Bugui easily. Wu Mian and other monks of the Central Plains. In addition, Bai Wuqiu, who often bullied him, did not dare to do anything excessive. When he had magic, he was still kicked by this big man on the ground. Now that he had no magic, he dared to provoke it. Gui Bugui had no intention of stopping him, and he didn't even say anything to hint Hu Leng'er not to escape.
At that moment, Bai Wuqiu and Hu Leng'er went to the winery they often went to, thinking that they would have to drink this wine until midnight before they could come back. Unexpectedly, after half an hour, Bai Wuqiu brought Hu Leng'er back. In addition to them, Bai Wuqiu also had a half-large Hun man in his forties and fifties under his armpit.
After putting the half-big old man in front of Gui Bugui, Bai Wuqiu said, "Old guy, this old man said he knows where the red elixir is. This old man is your son and I respect you. If you have any questions, please go and ask. Let's go and continue drinking. We have just drunk two rounds, and a large group of people are still waiting."
Hu Leng'er knew something more about human affairs than Bai Wuqiu. Before he could explain this matter clearly, the Hun monk did not dare to leave. Finally, under Bai Wuqiu's repeated urging, he briefly told the story. After he and Bai Wuqiu and four or five Hun friends sat down at the winery, they bought a bag of horse milk wine and drank for a round. When the old Hun man appeared.
The old man met one of Bai Wuqiu several times, and then came over with a shameless face to drink. Since the host this time was Hu Lenger, the friend was not familiar with the old man, and he immediately came up with a difficult problem to send him away. Just now, Hu Lenger kept asking his friends about the place name called Chi Dan, and the friend immediately sent the problem to the old man: "It's not that I won't give you drinks, as long as you can tell the host today where Chi Dan is. Today's horse milk wine will be available, otherwise we can't do anything."
"Chilan..." The old man tilted his head and thought for a while. Just when everyone thought he was pretending, the old man suddenly spoke again: "This is not the place name of our Huns. Chidan was the name of the Quanrong period in the past, a abandoned city in the Quanrong period. It is just in the Moro Mountain Valley thirty miles outside the Zhiju City..."
While talking, the old man suddenly translated for Bai Wuqiu. After hearing the old man knowing where Chi Dan was, Bai Wuqiu, who was still filling his mouth with milk wine, threw most of the bag of milk wine in his hand to the old man. He stared at him and said, "The wine in this pocket belongs to you. If your words were true just now, you would have found your next life's wine bag."
After Hu Lang'er finished speaking, he was already impatiently dragged away by Bai Wuqiu: "I can say a few words, don't you know if there are still friends waiting? Let's go back and continue drinking. Today I will take you with you without vomiting..."
Gui Bugui ignored Bai Wuqiu, who was dragging Hu Leng'er away, and he called Yin Haoda over and asked him to interpret for himself. Then he said to the old man: "I heard you know how Chidan will go? Tell me, if you are right, I will take care of the old man this year. If you can take us to that place called Chidan, I will also take care of the horse milk wine for the rest of your life, how about it?"
At first, the old man was so scared that his face was pale. He held his half bag of horse milk wine tightly in his hand. He knew that after Yin Haoda translated the old man's words, a little blood color appeared on his face. Then, he said everything he knew.
The old man was named Attila. He used to be a minor official in charge of the warehouse in the Xiongnu royal court. Among the Huns, there were few literate people. The warehouse under Attila was placed in the warehouse tributed by various tribes around the Huns. When counting the warehouse, the old man found a map of the Quanrong period (later the map drawn by the Bank of China said was based on this). The name of Chidan City was on this map. Attila only knew two words Chidan on the entire Quanrong map. He remembered it firmly at that time. Later, because the incident of stealing treasures in the warehouse and expelling wine, he escaped from the royal court overnight. Unexpectedly, he would rely on this for a meal of wine a few years later.
Now that he finally had the exact address of Chi Dan, Gui Bugui finally breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a golden cake and a small golden turtle from his luggage. Then he put the golden turtle in Attila's palm and said, "These two pieces of gold belong to you. You told us where Chi Dan is, and you got a golden turtle. Take us there in a few days, and the golden turtle is yours when you arrive. How about it? No problem?"
After hearing what Yin Haoda translated, Attila stared at the golden cake in Gui Bugui's hand and nodded, then shook her head vigorously, muttering in her mouth that only Yin Haoda could understand the words of the Huns. The old guy didn't understand what he nodded and shook his head again. Yin Haoda immediately translated to him: "He wants two golden cakes."
After knowing where Chi Dan got, they had no intention of staying in the vestibule. At that moment, Gui Bugui ordered Yin Haoda to pack up his things and take out the cart immediately. With Wu Miande's help, Wu Mian went to the local winery in person and pulled Bai Wuqiu and Hu Leng'er out of it among the drunks all over the place.
After Wu Mian brought them back one by one, Hu Leng'er's alcohol had already woken up. But Bai Wuqiu then began to play with alcohol, and Wu Mian threw it into a well. When Bai Wuqiu reached the end, the monster jumped out of the well after a moment. He ignored Wu Mian, pointed directly at the well, and cursed at Hu Leng'er: "I'll just say that you can mix the water with the horse milk wine! If you go down and drink a sip, you won't smell any alcohol..."
At that moment, Wu Mian and Gui Bugui left the vestibuya overnight. Following the path pointed by the old man Attila, he drove towards the northwest. The Chidan, the abandoned city of Quanrong, mentioned by Attila, was near the outer city of the important town behind the Xiongnu. Now there are few places there that have not been plundered by war.
Three carriages ran for a day and a night, and arrived at Zhijucheng on the evening of the next day. It was said that the town was actually similar to the vestibule, with hundreds of tents set up together and fences made of wooden stakes on the outside. The Huns were nomadic peoples, so it was not easy to have such a gathering place.
At that moment, several people got off the carriage and set up their own tents outside the city. Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and others rushed to Chidan City overnight, but Attila, who was a few years old, couldn't stand it anymore. Although he was also a Hun, he had been in the royal court for half his life and could not compare to the same tribes like Yin Haoda and Hu Lenger.
The next morning, Attila and Yin Haoda went to find the local Huns to inquire about the address of Moro Mountain. Then they drove the carriage toward Moro Mountain. After reaching the foot of Moro Mountain, Attila pointed to the location behind the mountain and said, "The Chidan City you are looking for is in the valley, but I am old and I really can't walk the mountain road. In this way, you will be given the golden cake by me. I will show you the carriage here. There are many wild wolves here, and no one can watch them. These horses cannot be protected."
