Chapter 212

The yellow sand is long, the four fields are vast, and a heat wave is mixed in the wind. The dust is flying, which makes the surrounding look desolate and dark. It was a little dark just after the time of application.

Far away, a team of cars and horses came, and there was no one in front of or behind.

There was only one carriage. The door curtain was down, and the scene inside could not be seen. The horse pulling the carriage was still energetic, but his whole body was covered with dust and ash, and he lost his original divine horse. Because of the long journey, the surrounding of the carriage and the shaft, including the wheels, are covered with loess, as well as subtle traces crushed by gravel.

The driver was a man in his twenties. He was dressed up and looked serious. He looked around vigilantly. Although he didn't find anything unusual, he never relaxed.

There were guards at the front and back of the carriage. The two people in front opened the road and rode slowly. They were obviously tired and were looking for a place to rest. There were 18 horses behind the carriage and a man on the horse's back. Even though everyone was very tired, they still didn't relax their vigilance and looked around.

"Xiao Qi, how far have we come?" Suddenly a beautiful voice came from the carriage. Then one hand opened the curtain, and a 12-year-old girl in blue stretched out her head to look.

The man who drove the car immediately turned back and said, "princess, we are about to leave North Vietnam. When we rest tonight, we will almost reach the territory of Xichu after tomorrow morning."

The girl in blue smiled, nodded and shrunk back, with a youthful smile on her face: "girl, I've walked 500 miles, and I'll be in Xichu tomorrow."

Luo qingluan nodded, raised the curtain and looked outside: "it's getting dark. Let's find a place to rest. Everyone is tired."

It has been three days, almost without stopping all the way, and it is about to reach the North Vietnam border. Although Han Xun didn't make trouble for her, and even sent someone to send her a lot of things for use on the road and prepared such a shared carriage for her, Luo qingluan still couldn't rest assured.

She can't rest assured that she hasn't gone back to Xichu for a day. She's more than a thousand miles along the way. Who knows what accident will happen?

But fortunately, more than 20 men of the dark night hall left by Nalan night protect her, which eliminates her worry. Luo qingluan doesn't want Han Xun to send someone to send her. If she divulges her identity, those people will inevitably do something unexpected.

Fortunately, she and cui'er took the first half of the carriage, and the second half was filled with food and necessities for half a month. As long as there is no big problem, there should be nothing.

Hearing Luo qingluan's order to rest, the team soon drove another incense, found a leeward place and stopped.

After jumping out of the carriage, Luo qingluan and cui'er finally stepped on the ground. Looking around, it was almost dark.

It's rare to spend the night outside. Even Luo qingluan has only been like this in her previous life. In this life, she almost ran out in the middle of the night with Nalan. As for cui'er, the little girl left the North Vietnamese harem for the first time. She was curious and couldn't help worrying.

"Girl, are there wolves around here?" Cui'er became timid and trembled. She took Luo qingluan's hand and didn't dare to put it: "I used to hear people say that there are wolves in the wilderness, and they are a group. They eat people without spitting bones."

Luo qingluan couldn't help laughing: "even if a wolf comes, we're not afraid. Are we still afraid of a few animals?"

Cui'er was still worried: "but the wolf is fierce..."

"If someone protects us, don't worry. Those brothers can kill ten wolves one by one. Don't be afraid even if they come to a hundred." Luo qingluan patted her hand: "don't think about it. When you're full, go to bed early, and you won't be afraid of anything."

Finally, cui'er nodded, "I'll cook for the girl."

The desolate Gobi desert, which was once the place where the Western Chu and North Vietnam fought, has no smoke and even no trees. Only some dead trees can be seen standing alone in the wilderness.

The guards of the dark night hall have dispersed and acted separately. Some set up tents, some built stoves with stones, some picked up dry firewood, and others moved down the food and kitchen utensils and chopsticks needed in the carriage one by one.

If you change them, you won't take these heavy things at all. It's enough to take some dry food with you. But this time they escorted Luo qingluan, the woman of their master, so they must bring enough things. When we set out, we not only packed many kinds of vegetables and meat, but also packed ice in a thick tin box to prevent the meat from deteriorating.

As for other snacks and snacks, as well as tea, there are everything. If you don't take the wrong route, it's almost a luxury outing.

After sitting in the car for three days, even Luo qingluan couldn't stand it. When she came, she was abducted by Hanson. It had been two or three days since she woke up. On this return trip, she had been in a carriage for several days. It was time to rest again. She couldn't help but want to find something to do.

This is next to the wasteland. She looked around and asked, "Xiao Qi, did you find any living creatures around all the way?"

Xiao Qi is Yuan Xing's most powerful assistant and the leader of the return trip. Naturally, he knows Luo qingluan's identity. He doesn't dare to neglect it at all. He replied: "princess, my subordinates haven't found any large animals all the way. Even if they do, there are only some gerbils, vultures, or snakes and scorpions."

"Snake?" Luo qingluan's eyes lit up and smiled: "it's good for snakes, Xiao Qi. Let someone catch some. We'll eat snake meat soup later."

Small seven smell speech some dare not believe, the princess is a woman, dare to eat a snake?

"Princess, you, you said you wanted to eat snakes? It's poisonous!"

"It's only poisonous that tastes good. Go quickly and pay attention to safety."

Luo qingluan didn't say much and asked them to get it directly. There's no need to worry that they will be bitten by poisonous snakes. These guards of the dark night hall are fuel-efficient lights. If they can't deal with even a few snakes, they simply don't deserve to be Nalan night's men.

Then he felt that Luo qingluan didn't talk nonsense. Xiao Qi nodded and took two people with him.

Looking around, Luo qingluan went to a guard who was playing with the earth stove. The latter was uncomfortable at the sight of her, flustered and saluted. He stood as straight as a javelin and forgot that he was still holding a shovel in his hand.

"You're welcome. When you go out, everyone is casual."

Luo qingluan laughed and asked him to finish the stove and boil water. Forget it, the party is in their early twenties. I'm afraid it will take a big pot to eat. As for other meals, she doesn't worry about it. Others will do it. It was also because she was tired of seeing the people on their way for three days that she wanted to make some nourishing food for them to recuperate.

An hour later, Xiao Qi and two other guards came back with a cowhide pocket: "princess, have you seen enough?"

He took a look in his open pocket. Luo qingluan pulled up his long sleeve without scruples, stretched out his hand and grabbed one out. She smelled a strong smell of blood from a distance. She knew that Xiao Qi was worried that the poisonous snake hurt herself by mistake and had already dealt with it, so she didn't have to worry about danger.

"Princess, you..."

Xiao Qi didn't have time to stop it. Luo qingluan had caught a snake. Sure enough, the snake head had been cut off. Even the poison bag had been handled. As long as it was cleaned, it could be put into the pot.

"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of a little blood." As long as there is delicious food, Luo qingluan doesn't care about blood.

"Girl, let the maidservant come." Cui'er looked pale, but she came to help.

Luo qingluan shook his head: "forget it. You're so scared. Just wash some onions and ginger for me."

The chopping board and kitchen knife are already ready. Although they are not in a serious kitchen, they have all the items, and it is even more difficult not to pour Luo qingluan. Waiting for cui'er to help her pull up her two sleeves and expose two snow-white lotus root arms, Xiao Qi and others next to her didn't dare to look at it at all. Their faces turned red to one side for fear of blaspheming the princess.

Soon the washed snake meat was cut and pulled an inch long short joint. The pot was already red. A guard stood by with dead branches in his hand and was ready to add them at any time. He didn't dare to be careless. Today, the princess cooked for them in person. Not everyone can enjoy it. More than 20 people were very excited. Although they didn't say anything, they looked here from time to time.

Stir fry the ingredients and stir fry the snake meat. Add a small spice and baijiu. The aroma is just floating. Countless people sucked their noses. Before, they thought Luo qingluan was just talking. At most, it was nonsense. They didn't expect that they were really good at cooking, and they were looking forward to it.

The rice pot on one side also opened, and snow-white rice grains jumped up and down in the boiling water. Luo qingluan put the half cooked snake meat into the rice pot, and then waited for the snake meat soup to be ready.

"Xiao Jiu, keep the fire and keep adding firewood." Luo qingluan gave an order and stood up.

Most of the preparations have been completed. Now we only need to wait half an hour. The snake meat soup must be boiled over a high fire before the rice grains will bloom and the delicious flavor of snake meat can be boiled. She also specially put some herbs without medicinal flavor into it, which can nourish the body and give full play to the effect of snake meat.

In addition to this pot of snake meat soup, Luo qingluan is not responsible for other dishes. When the sky was completely dark and the stars were shining overhead, they finally had a steaming meal.

"Girl, this soup is really delicious." Cui'er picked up a bowl. She was afraid, but when she smelled the smell, she couldn't help it after all.

"Eat, you can eat." Luo qingluan smiled.

"Thank you, princess." The guards said in unison, full of gratitude.

A meal was swept away in a moment, and they only felt hot all over, and they didn't feel cold even when the wind blew all night. The rest of the people were content to clean the dishes and chopsticks and pack up. Luo qingluan took cui'er for a walk around to eat, and gradually became sleepy

The night is as cold as water. I can finally have a good sleep tonight.
