(0.5 km), is Jade Gate, outside Yangguan Jade Gate, is the boundary of western region various country's. 出了沙州,往北不到十里,就是阳关,往西北一百余里,便是玉门关,阳关玉门关外,已是西域诸国的地界。 Shazhou is located in the desert edge, all around all by desert desert surrounding, year to year water shortage, hundred letter/believes bitter sand damages for a long time, in the Shazhou city, obstruct the surface by the gray cotton cloth everywhere obviously, to prevent the common people who inhale the sand dust. 沙州位于沙漠边缘,四周皆被沙漠戈壁包围,常年缺水,百信苦沙害已久,沙州城内,到处可见以灰布遮面,以防止吸入沙尘的百姓。 The females rarely go out, then goes out, wears a mask by the fine gauze surely, here weather is dry, the sandstorm is also big, can cause very big damage to their tender and delicate skins. 女子们则是很少外出,便是出门,也必定以轻纱蒙面,这里天气干燥,风沙又大,对她们娇嫩的皮肤会造成很大的伤害。 Although Shazhou is remote, but is not destitute. 沙州虽然偏远,但却并不穷困。 This is because here is the inevitable location that the western region and Chen Guo merchant enters the pass goes out, every month will have large quantities of caravans to stop over here, some of them from Chen Guo Chen Guo who goes to the western region peddler, some western region merchant who enters the pass from the western region, the cargos of these merchants stay in Shazhou, must pay part of tariffs. 这是因为这里是西域和陈国商人入关出关的必经之地,每月都会有大批的商队在这里逗留,他们有的是从陈国前往西域的陈国行商,有的是从西域入关的西域商人,这些商人的货物在沙州停留,要缴纳一部分关税。 The western region merchant trades Chen Guo the western region special product, Chen Guo peddler the silk tea leaves and other taking away western regions, cannot go round Shazhou, merely is the customs duties that these merchants pay, then occupied a Chen Guo public revenues extremely considerable part. 无论是西域商人将西域特产贩卖到陈国,还是陈国行商将丝绸茶叶等带去西域,都绕不开沙州,仅仅是这些商人缴纳的税银,便占据了陈国国库收入极为可观的一部分。 But Shazhou Government authorities , naturally also the profit is in this process significant. 而沙州官府,在这个过程中,自然也获利匪浅。 Massive caravans stay in Shazhou, substantially promoted the business development of Shazhou, in the state city, the inn stands in great numbers, the restaurant brothel has everything expected to find, can be the Chen Guo recruit, liveliest city. 大量的商队在沙州停留,也极大的促进了沙州的商业发展,州城之内,客栈林立,酒楼青楼更是应有尽有,算得上是陈国西北边境,最繁华的城池了。 Vividly turns over to vividly, covers at the crisis of Shazhou, as also the situation in western region changes, is getting more and more heavy. 繁华归繁华,笼罩在沙州的危机,也随着西域的局势变化,愈来愈沉重。 Shazhou toward east is Chen Guo, toward the west is a western region, once the western region changes, Shazhou bears the brunt surely. 沙州往东是陈国,往西是西域,一旦西域有变,沙州必定首当其冲。 For these years, little Wan's rise is irresistible, at present their energy also place to conquer in the small country of western region, when they conquered the western region thoroughly time, when was Chen Guo disaster arrives. 这几年里,小宛的崛起已经势不可挡,目前他们的精力还放在征服西域的小国上,等到他们彻底征服西域的时候,就是陈国的灾难降临之时。 In order to deal with the western region changes, after the royal government stilled the prairie, in Shazhou and Suzhou and other places, had 400,000 armies, the city wall reinforcement Shazhou to more than two zhang (3.33 m) widths, five zhang (3.33 m) high, in this boundless vast desert, built an impregnable bastion. 为了应付西域之变,朝廷平定了草原之后,在沙州和肃州等地,驻扎了四十万大军,将沙州的城墙加固到两丈多宽,五丈之高,在这茫茫的沙海中,打造出了一道铜墙铁壁。 Had guarded with large army , from afar, the palatial city wall towered, this made in the Shazhou common people heart stabilize finally, is hoping little as if competed in the power and influence of western region is defeated, or the royal government dispatched troops to still the western region simply, so can preserve the Shazhou long-time stability. 有了重兵把守,远远望去,巍峨的城墙耸立,这使得沙州百姓心中总算安定了一些,盼望着小宛在西域的权势争夺中落败,或是朝廷干脆发兵平定西域,如此才能保住沙州长久的安定。 At this moment, the city gate of eastern Shazhou, the group lead a horse entering a city of slowly, caused looking askance of repeatedly pedestrian. 此刻,沙州东边的城门,一行人牵马缓缓的进了城,引起了行人的频频侧目。 Shazhou must welcome many people from other place every day, some people come from the national capital, some people come from the western region, in the city the common people have been unalarmed by strange sights, is only this group of composition is extremely really strange, letting the person has to look at several. 沙州每日都要迎来许多外地人,这其中有人来自京师,有人来自西域,城中百姓早已见怪不怪,只是这一行人的组成实在太过奇怪,让人不得不多看几眼。 Walks in the forefront, is three young men and women, the man is pretty, the female is attractive, men and women seemingly have 20 over appearances, another young girl sixteen year old girl, facial features also slightly obviously immature. 走在最前面的,是三名年轻男女,男子俊秀,女子漂亮,一对男女看起来有二十出头的样子,另一位少女不过二八年华,面容还稍显稚嫩。 These three people besides looking good-lookingly , there is nothing actually strangely, what is strange their behind people. 这三人除了看着悦目之外,倒是没有什么奇怪的,奇怪的是他们身后的人。 A body grandiose middle-aged man follows in their behind, the waist be not killing the pig blade, destroyed the front three people the dust makings, side the middle-aged man, are an attire dirty old man, beggar's general appearance, a while flexure flexure buttocks, a while dig the nostril, seemingly sloppily. 一名身体壮硕的中年男子跟在他们的身后,腰间别着一把杀猪刀,破坏了前方三人的出尘气质,中年男子身旁,是一名衣着脏兮兮的老者,乞丐一般的打扮,一会儿挠挠屁股,一会儿挖挖鼻孔,看起来邋遢至极。 After two people, but also follows several person's shadows, three old men, three old women, all are an age, following of blindly following suit after several people, probably accompanies the servant to be the same. 两人身后,还跟着几道人影,三名老者,三名老妪,皆是一把年纪,亦步亦趋的跟在几人身后,像是随从下人一般。 In the people heart that such combination looks at the doubts are puzzled, must say that this is which son of upper-class family travels with beautiful, ought to lead some guards, but in these people, on that waist don't middle-aged person who kills the pig blade, the appearance that a little guard, other all are age, seems like half foot already the elderly man who is buried, feared that is the journey rushes about slightly, on can probably their short remaining lives. 这样的组合看的众人心中疑惑不解,要说这是哪家的贵公子携美出游,总该带些护卫,可这些人里面,也就那位腰间别着杀猪刀的中年人,还有那么一点护卫的样子,其余皆是年纪一把,看起来半只脚已经入土的老人家,怕是路途稍微奔波一点,就能要了他们的老命。 Tang Ning naturally noticed the surrounding these passer-by strange looks, however the fact often and was inferior that the bystander saw. 唐宁自然注意到了周围那些路人怪异的眼神,然而事实往往并不如外人所见。 These seem like a foot already the elderly man who is buried, beginning, no is the fuel-efficient lamp. 这些看起来一只脚已经入土的老人家,动起手来,没有一位是省油的灯。 In them any, can slaughter easily extinguish a western region small country, six Dean ten thousand Gu always collaborates, the slaughter extinguishes middle-grade countries that have several thousand population, is not the difficult matter. 他们中的任何一位,都能轻易的屠灭西域一个小国,六位万蛊教长老联手,屠灭一个有着数千人口的中等国家,也不是什么难事。 In addition before , four elders and eight elders when Tang Ning, Tang Ning enters Shazhou, the side has gathered six Dean ten thousand Gu to be old. 加上之前就在唐宁身边的四长老和八长老,唐宁进入沙州时,身边已经聚集了六位万蛊教长老。 If were not ten lineage/vein just conformed, must leave behind several elders to process teaches the business, Tang Ning thought that Su Mei will all send the new ten big elders. 如果不是十脉刚刚整合,要留下几位长老处理教中事务,唐宁觉得苏媚会将新的十大长老全都派出来。 Dean ten thousand Gu old perhaps independent combat is not old Zheng's opponent, but they deal with the average person, even is some young experts, can actually play the nuclear weapon general role, this is the Zheng He old beggar cannot. 万蛊教长老或许单打独斗不是老郑的对手,但她们对付普通人,甚至是一些小高手,却能发挥出核武一般的作用,这又是老郑和老乞丐所不能及的。 As for Tang Yaoyao, they are join in the fun purely. 至于唐夭夭和小小,她们纯粹是来凑热闹的。 Tang Ning has not prevented their reasons to be, Tang Yaoyao said that with coming to see him can be a womanizer in the western region, Tang Ning does not make her follow, to appear itself afraid. 唐宁没有阻止她们的原因在于,唐夭夭说是跟来看看他会不会在西域沾花惹草,唐宁不让她跟着,岂不是显得自己心虚。 Always listens to the Tang Ning words very much, this time actually does not listen to his arrangement, must follow they to come to the western region together, coming out that Tang Ning looks, she as if has a light resistance to Guizhou, has not insisted again. 向来很听唐宁话的小小,这次却是不听他的安排,也要跟着他们一起来西域,唐宁看的出来,她似乎对黔地有一种淡淡的抗拒,也就没有再坚持了。 Their two are different from small such as little intent, has the strength of certain self-preservation, particularly, now cannot see clearly her depth Tang Ning, Tang Yaoyao was very early is not her opponent. 她们两个和小如小意不一样,都有一定的自保之力,尤其是小小,现在连唐宁都看不清她的深浅,唐夭夭更是很早就不是她的对手了。 Leads them, is not only not troublesome, instead boost. 带着她们两人,不仅不是麻烦,反而还是助力。 Let alone, his time comes to the western region, is not and little as if meets the tough head-on with toughness, in can the situation of peace discussion, Tang Ning not resort to other methods. 更何况,他这次来西域,也不是和小宛硬碰硬的,在能和平商谈的情况下,唐宁不会动用其他手段。 Shazhou compared with the Tang Ning imagination wants lively rich and populous many, he thinks that here is Chen Guo and declining border region small town of western region intersection point, never expected that city of Shazhou, although is small, some actually anything does not lack. 沙州比唐宁想象的要繁华富庶的多,他原以为这里是陈国和西域交界处的破落边陲小城,没想到沙州的城池虽小,该有的却什么都不缺。 Arrives on the main street of Shazhou state city, looks by the street the guest continuous store, Tang Ning even thinks that he arrived at the national capital. 走到沙州州城的主街上,看着街道两旁客人络绎不绝的商铺,唐宁甚至以为他来到了京师。 Naturally, here and national capital has very big difference. 当然,这里和京师还是有很大区别的。 The most remarkable difference is, the Han people face on street only accounted for half, the high cheekbone, the western region person of high nose occupied other one less than half, some appearances and Han people look differences are bigger, is also different from the western region person, wants to come to come from the western country. 最显著的区别在于,街道上的汉人面孔只占了一半,高颧骨,高鼻梁的西域人占据了另外的一小半,还有一些样貌与汉人相貌差异更大,和西域人也不尽相同,想来是来自于更西边的国家了。 Naturally, the western region female are also all the way more, they put on mostly with the Han people female style different clothing, some also revealed the navel, Tang Ning was even seeing several put on the alien race young girl of accessory on the navel...... 当然,一路上遇到的西域女子也更多,她们大都穿着与汉人女子风格迥异的服饰,有的还露着肚脐,唐宁甚至看到了几个在肚脐上穿着饰品的异族少女…… The foreign land character and style in Shazhou city, was strong than the national capital did not know many, is today's weather is poor, in the sky of distant place is filling the sand dust, many people went out wear the gauze kerchief, Tang Ning one group have not been preparing this type of thing, stood in his side small coughed all the way several times, wants to come not to adapt to here air. 沙州城内的异域风情,比京师浓厚了不知多少,就是今日的天气不怎么好,远处的天空中弥漫着沙尘,不少人出门都佩戴着纱巾,唐宁一行人没有准备这种东西,站在他身旁的小小一路上咳嗽了好几次,想来是不适应这里的空气。 When Tang Ning is just about reminded her a while to buy together the gauze kerchief, another side waist suddenly transmitted an ache. 唐宁正要提醒她一会儿买一块纱巾时,另一侧的腰间忽然传来了一阵疼痛。 Tang Yaoyao is pulling his arm, smiling asking: „Attractive?” 唐夭夭挽着他的胳膊,笑盈盈的问道:“好看吗？” Although she is smiling, the tooth actually bites tight, slender white hands, pressed firmly between the fingers the soft meat of his waist. 她虽然在笑,牙齿却咬的紧紧的,一只纤纤玉手,更是捏住了他腰间的软肉。 Tang Ning takes back the line of sight, does not immediately look askance, said: „Broad daylight, ringing universe, in rags, highly improper, highly improper......” 唐宁收回视线,立刻目不斜视,说道:“光天化日,朗朗乾坤,衣不蔽体的,成何体统,成何体统……”
