Chapter 334 Little beggar of unknown origin
The atmosphere outside the Tucheng was heavy, as if it was shrouded in a breath of death, which reminded Liu Yu of the situation in which refugees from all over the country were like this when they were in Guanzhong to provide disaster relief, and they were even more energetic than these people. At least in Guanzhong, there were disaster relief porridge shops. Now, people outside the Tucheng were basically waiting to die.
Liu Yu seemed to have any intentions and asked, "Are there any food sold in the city?"
The little beggar snorted coldly: "Nonsense, of course there are foods in the city. Can you enter the city?"
The little beggar didn't look at Liu Yu. Liu Yu took out a piece of bacon that was only the size of a palm from his arms, took it in his hand, cut it off with a knife, bite it and chewed it, and said, "It still smells like meat."
The little beggar also smelled the fragrance of meat and looked at Liu Yu in surprise. You know, this piece of meat can make people live for several more days, and maybe they can find a way out. The little beggar had his tongue and added lower lip, which was obviously attracted by the food on Liu Yu's hands.
Liu Yu ignored the greedy beggar's greedy slut, and while eating, he took out a weed from the grassland from his arms and ate it. This weed is one of the few grasses that Liu Yu found to be able to eat. It is similar to spicy vegetables. It has no bitterness or strong grass juice flavor, and it is delicious with bacon.
"Do you want to eat?" Liu Yu smiled and looked at the little beggar.
The little beggar nodded and said, "How much is it, are you willing to sell it?"
Liu Yu smiled disdainfully and said, "Do you still have money?"
The little beggar took out her small purse again, leaving only some scattered copper plates in it, "Is this enough?"
Liu Yu smiled and shook his head, pointing to the scimitar on the little beggar's waist: "Take that one for exchange!"
The little beggar's face immediately became gloomy and he sneered: "Jackal!" After saying that, he ignored Liu Yu.
Liu Yu continued to eat the food there. While eating, he exclaimed: "It's so delicious. It's a pity that I'm full. I'll eat it next time."
The little beggar said coldly: "That kind of grass is Tuli grass, which is only found on the riverside of the Khan River in the north. It is very rare. People in the grassland use it to treat injuries, but you use it to eat it. It's really... a waste of resources."
Liu Yu was impressed by the little beggar's knowledge. He did find the grass on the riverside, which was delicious. So he found more. He heard the little beggar's accent of the Central Plains, but he knew so much about the things on the grassland. Then she might have been in frequent trips between these two places, that is, the daughter of a merchant, but she just couldn't understand why she appeared here.
Liu Yu put the remaining piece of meat in his arms, deliberately exposing one side of the meat outside his clothes, leaning against the earthen wall as if he was asleep, but in fact he was secretly observing the little beggar's reaction. The little beggar originally saw him not moving and ignored it, but glanced at Liu Yu. Seeing the bacon on his chest, and then seeing Liu Yu close his eyes and sleep. He couldn't help but feel the thought of stealing in his heart.
But she seemed very hesitant, as if she was disdainful of stealing, but in the end her reason could not resist greed. She quietly reached out her hand and pulled the meat out of Liu Yu's arms little by little. Seeing that Liu Yu still didn't react, then quickly held the meat in his hand, bent down and ate it in big mouths.
Liu Yu couldn't help but smile. It was quite interesting. He should be a lady with a good tutor. She might have come here to avoid the war, carrying a treasure knife, but she didn't know how to use it.
"Eat slowly, don't choke!"
Liu Yu reminded him and handed the water bag forward.
When the little beggar heard Liu Yu's voice, his body shivered and hurriedly shrank and continued to chew. Knowing that Liu Yu had asked her to steal it on purpose, she was no longer afraid that Liu Yu would come and rob. After eating, she smiled brightly on her face and said, "Thank you!" Then she took the water bag handed over by Liu Yu, and just took a sip, but vomited it all.
"This bag has served wine!" The little beggar handed back the water bag.
Liu Yu frowned. It was a matter of many days ago that he had tasted it himself, but he couldn't taste the wine at all. How did this little beggar taste it?
"What's wrong with the wine? It's water now, but it's not poisonous. Can't you drink it?" Liu Yu said, "Gudong Gudong and Gudong took two sips.
"Anyway, I won't drink it if it smells like alcohol. If you want to drink it, you can drink it yourself. Thank you for your meat, but I don't think I have a chance to pay it back!"
Liu Yu was not in a hurry to express his purpose and continued to lean on the earth wall to rest. The little beggar sat next to him, but with the fact that Liu Yu gave her flesh, her vigilance towards Liu Yu was significantly reduced. However, the two still kept a distance.
Suddenly, a heavy sound of horse hooves came from afar. The little beggar was already drowsy, but suddenly he was shocked when he heard the sound, as if he was greatly frightened. Liu Yu looked at her curiously. At this time, the little beggar looked at the cavalry coming from afar with sharp eyes. When he found their clothes, he breathed a sigh of relief. She seemed to be avoiding someone.
Those were just the remnants who retreated from the front line. People had already come out of the city to greet them. Both sides talked and Liu Yu couldn't understand it. Then these people entered Tucheng.
"Who are those people and why can they get in?" Liu Yu asked the little beggar.
The little beggar said angrily: "Those are Citelites, of course they can enter their own city."
Liu Yu was shocked, Tiele? The name is very familiar. It should be an ethnic minority in the northern grassland. After the Turks were strong, they had lost their position as the overlord of the grassland. Several of them were still active on the grassland, but they had already reached remote places in the west and were very close to the Western Regions. That is to say, this was already very close to the Western Regions.
Liu Yu was a little relieved. Although it was not a border of Shun Dynasty, it was safe for him from outside the Turkic territory. When he arrived in the Western Regions, he followed the caravan back to the Central Plains and could see his family who had been away for a long time.
"Can you understand what they just said?" Liu Yu asked.
"They said that the Shunchao army was going crazy and swept the grasslands, and the Turks also began to rob them. They had to retreat, hoping to get shelter from the city. Then the guards in the city agreed."
"What they say is not Turkic, do you say it?"
"I was originally a Tieler person, why didn't I say it?" the little beggar turned his head and looked at Liu Yu and said.
"Are you a Tiel?" Liu Yu smiled, his expression indicating that he didn't believe it, "Why don't those people let you into the city?"
"Because they didn't believe it, they said that the Tiel people should understand the tribe rules of Tiel and let me recite it. If I couldn't recite it, they said that I was pretending to be a Turk. I said that I was a Turk. They said that the Turks were not allowed to enter. So I found your clothes and made up into a Han Chinese. Who knew that they would still not let me in. It was so annoying!"
Liu Yuxin said that the little beggar was quite sloppy, so she asked, "Who are you?"
The little beggar looked at Liu Yu carefully and snorted coldly: "Hmph! Does anyone I am have anything to do with you?"
Liu Yu was so dirty that she thought she was quite alert. He asked, "Then can you tell me why you want to enter this city?"
