Early in the morning of the second day, the genius was bright, and a group of teenagers began to gather at the north gate of Pucheng;
Cities in Zhaoye Kingdom will close their city gates at night and only open them in the early morning. This is a rule. But Zhaoye has been peaceful for a long time, and such rules have long been in vain. They may not be felt by the people at the bottom, but for these rich families,
The soldiers guarding the city will not be offended. Not to mention that it is already dark, even in the middle of the night, as long as you can tell where you came from, you will still be able to pass without hindrance.
There were eight people and eight horses. The soldiers hurriedly opened the door. Li Sanqi and others were all public figures in Pucheng, and few people knew them. Judging by their attire and age, they were everyone's young masters. Who could offend them?
So they made a lot of noise and rushed out!
Lou Xiaoyi observed secretly, and there were two things that surprised him.
The first is Li Sanlang. I didn’t hear him really agree when I was drinking the day before yesterday. I thought that he had already lost interest in practice. He was two or three years older than everyone else, so he would be more mature and would not participate in such a purely youthful activity.
I was just messing around, but I didn't expect to follow him.
He had an intuition that Li San's target was him! From the time he went to Lou's house to invite him to have a drink, even though he concealed it very cleverly, he couldn't escape his intuition.
Lou Xiaoyi was very surprised. What on earth did he have that the richest man's son could deliberately befriend? Was it deliberate malice? Or was there another agenda?
Another strange thing is that everyone's packages are full. Lou Xiaoyi thought that he was well prepared for the expedition, but who knows that everyone else's packages are bigger than him. It seems that the soil of this world is
Chui is naturally experienced in exploring and searching for secrets like this, but he has thought too much.
No one brought a slave, this was agreed in advance, firstly to prove one's bravery, and secondly to prevent family members from stopping him.
If the family knew about such a young boy's whim, there would be no way to prohibit it.
After going out, we first ran due north along the main road. After ten miles, we turned onto a northwest path. After another ten miles, even the path was lost. The earth lost its green vitality and began to gradually become deserted.
, sand dunes began to appear and became increasingly dense.
Lou Xiaoyi's heart sank, and he already roughly knew where Qi Er was going to take them!
Although he has never left Pucheng since time traveling, and although he rarely left the city walls of Pucheng in the past, for a person who loves reading, these are not big problems.
In the Pucheng Prefecture Annals, the mountains, rivers, lakes, swamps, and towns of hundreds of miles around Pucheng are clearly marked. This is not a land newly cultivated by humans, but a homeland where people have lived for thousands of years.
Each area around Pucheng has its own characteristics, the most unique of which is the northwest direction, because there is a huge Gobi Desert here, which is so large that it can even include the surrounding area of Pucheng!
Qi Er said that it is only half a day's journey from that secret place, which means that this place is just the edge of the vast Gobi. If they really go deep into it, without a guide or a sand camel, their fate can only be a narrow escape!
Maybe in other people's minds, mysterious opportunities can only exist in places like this, right? At least that's what Qi Er and his group thought, so they remained excited, and even became more and more excited.
Under such a mood, Lou Xiaoyi and Li Sanlang slowly fell to the end. It was not that their horses were not good, but that they were not excited.
"What do you think?"
Li Sanlang roared, "It is impossible to communicate without roaring in the rolling yellow sand."
Lou Xiaoyi yelled back, "What a bullshit! Please don't say anything and fill my mouth with mud!"
This kind of Mercedes-Benz stopped twice, just to feed the horses with water and food. Although they are all rich and quasi-dandy, in this world where horses are the main means of transportation, they have no idea how to take care of horses and how to run. There is no need for anyone to teach you on a long journey.
Half a day later, the leader Qi Er stopped, with some confusion in his eyes.
"It seems to be this place. Let me look at the map again!"
Qi Er jumped off his horse and climbed up a taller sand dune. He compared the map in his hand and started to look around. He was now dozens of miles into the Gobi desert and there was basically no obvious green color. The dunes were all the same, except The difference in size, Lou Xiaoyi couldn't tell the difference anyway.
But he still knows the direction he came from now. If he walks dozens of miles further, he may not be able to tell the difference between south, south and north!
"Qi Er, do you want someone to help you read the map? Are you sure you know the words on the map?" Li San said loudly.
"Second brother! Are you sure you only have this picture? Not everyone in Pucheng has a copy?" Lou Xiaoyi was also teasing next to him.
Others just laughed heartlessly, which is how teenagers get along.
Qi Er was making gestures with his fingers on the sand dune, making gestures, and mumbling words. He was the one who followed his fathers on business trips the most among the people. Even Li Sanlang couldn't compare to him, so everyone still had great confidence in him.
After some tossing, Qi Er rolled down the sand dune. This is also the most time-saving and labor-saving way to go down the sand dune. Only experienced Shakers can understand it. Obviously, this is Qi Er's reply to the two provocateurs and he is telling them , in the Gobi, he Qi Er is the most experienced.
"We found it. We'll be there by walking along the dry river bed for more than ten miles! But now, we need to eat something to replenish our strength!"
Everyone found a shady place and started preparing to eat. Now, Lou Xiaoyi finally knew what the group of people packed in their packages.
Wine, meat, fruits, doilies, parasols, and even silver plates and jade cups, etc. are countless. In a word, it is a complete set for a picnic.
No one regarded this exploration as a dangerous operation. To them, it was just a novel excavation, just like going to an orchard in the suburbs to steal melons!
It seemed that it was a matter of course that Lou Xiaoyi felt that he had read too many books about his previous life and thought too darkly for practitioners, but this was not the case?
This is not a simple meal, but a carnival in the Gobi. For young people who lack the temper of adversity, at least they have gained happiness, no matter what the outcome will be!
Among them, Lou Xiaoyi only eats other people's food, not his own, because he only has two kinds of limited food in his luggage, water and flatbread, the kind with dead noodles that even his teeth can't bite!
This is food only eaten by coolies. If you take it out now, you will be laughed at by your friends. If you don't use it in the end, just throw it away; if you use it, it will be a life-saving thing!
No one cares about eating.
After eating and drinking enough, seeing that the sun was almost noon, everyone packed up and headed forward along the dry river bed. This was a river bed formed over the years. If they hadn't mentioned it together, Lou Xiaoyi wouldn't even be able to judge, except for the occasional accident under his feet. gravel appears,
Horses were already at their limit here. If they went deeper, they would have to switch to sand camels. Fortunately, the place they were looking for soon appeared in front of them.
