Chapter 274 Sunset
Gold Wind.

Mu Nianhua stood at the bow of the boat, looked into the distance, and said calmly, "The end of this trip is coming soon."

"Sunset City?" Su Baiyi who was standing beside him asked confusedly.

"Yes, Sunset City, it's called Sunset, because in ancient times, this place was already the end of the sky in most people's hearts, and the sun would set here. Even our Mu family's business road was cut off here. "Mu Nianhua sighed softly, "Really going? The land of Kunlun is too illusory."

"Go." Su Baiyi nodded and said, "Now that things have come to an end, there is no turning back."

"Okay. Further north of Sunset City is the border of the Northern Man. There is an endless grassland. If you walk for a long time, you may not see a few herdsmen, but even if you do, avoid them from a distance. They talk to us. It doesn't make sense, and the folk customs are tough, and they will conflict with us at any time." Mu Nianhua reminded.

Su Baiyi smiled: "I read in the book that Beiman's smoked lamb is delicious."

"Tsk." Mu Nianhua curled his lips in disgust, "I asked someone to bring it back and taste it, it's harder than a rock."

Su Baiyi patted Mu Nianhua on the shoulder: "Perhaps you were tricked, this time I'll bring you delicious food!"

"Then come back quickly!" Mu Nianhua smiled, "I'll wait for you in Qingzhou City. If you come back late, I'm afraid your senior sister will fall in love with me."

"Bah." Su Baiyi said disdainfully.

During the conversation between the two, the Golden Wind had already moved forward for a certain distance, and the outline of Sunset City gradually became clearer.There was an eagle howling in the sky, Su Baiyi raised his head, and saw a goshawk flying by.

"A new journey has begun." Su Baiyi said lightly.

Because it is almost at the border of the northern barbarians, Sunset City also has a barbarian flavor, and there are even many merchants dressed as barbarians walking on the streets of Sunset City.Su Baiyi and Su Jian got off the boat and followed Mu Nianhua to walk in Sunset City. Su Baiyi had never seen any barbarians before, and looked at them curiously. Some barbarians noticed his gaze and all stared back viciously.

"Don't stare at the barbarians, they will feel that they are treated as a different kind." Mu Nianhua reminded.

"Didn't you say that the northern barbarians are all poor? Why are they all so tall and big?" Su Baiyi asked.

"Because in the northern barbarians, only strong people can survive. The thin and short ones were killed before they could grow into adults." Su Jian said in a deep voice.

Su Baiyi was stunned: "Is the Beiman side so terrifying?"

"It's not scary, it's just to survive. The climate in the northern barbarians is not suitable for farming, so there is only so much food a year, and it will be even less in a disaster year. The food is only enough to feed some people. Can be eliminated. The jungle is prey to the strong, and there are no Confucian sages in the northern barbarians to teach everyone benevolence, as long as they can survive, they can do anything." Su Jian replied.

"Oh? It seems that senior Demon Lord knows a lot about Beiman?" Mu Nianhua asked curiously.

Su Jian snorted coldly: "When I escaped from Weilong Mountain, in order to avoid the old man, where did I go? But there is no place worse than Beiman. The weather is bad and the food is scarce. Only kumiss and young barbarians Women can still speak."

"It seems that a part of senior's firm heart was broken in Beiman." Su Baiyi said quietly.

"For barbarian women, youth is very short, only a few years. Once the 20-year-old passes, the grassland wind blows, and the skin of a girl, no matter how tender, will be as dry as chapped bark in a few years, which is not very interesting. "Su Jian waved his hand with a look of disdain.

"I have sent people to prepare the things you need for this long journey. It is almost dusk now, why not go to the most famous Sunset Restaurant in Sunset City and have a drink, as if I practiced it for you two. Already." Mu Nianhua suggested.

"Brother Mu, please." Su Baiyi replied.

Sunset Restaurant was built on the edge of a cliff in Sunset City by the river. Sitting on the roof, you can see the sunset outside.Holding the wine glass, Su Jian watched the sunset outside, and fell into a long silence.

"What's wrong?" Su Baiyi asked.

"When people are young, they like to watch the sunrise, because a new day will begin again. When people are old, they are very afraid of watching the sunset, because another day has passed, and the end of life is one day closer." Su Jianyouyou said.

Su Baiyi was taken aback for a moment, he felt that since Su Jian boarded the Golden Wind, some subtle changes had taken place in his whole body.Especially when the Golden Wind sailed farther and farther north, Su Jian's words became less and less, and Su Baiyi often saw Su Jian sitting alone on the boat with his head in a daze, and sometimes he couldn't see him for a whole day. people.He felt that something was passing through Su Jian's body, but he couldn't tell what it was.

"The greatest tragedy of human beings is that from the moment of birth, it is doomed to end in death. But for thousands of years, no matter whether it is an emperor who established a hegemony, or a businessman with an invincible wealth, he cannot reverse this life and death. So why bother to think so much, if you have wine today and get drunk today, just live happily every day of your life." Mu Nianhua poured a glass of wine and raised it, "I'll drink first."

"Okay." Su Jian looked away from the window, and also raised his head to drink a glass. He put down the glass and raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's kumiss."

"That's right, it's kumiss." Mu Nianhua nodded and said, "I've asked someone to prepare three big pots, which are enough for you to use along the way."

In the eating and drinking room of the three, the shopkeeper of the Mu family came in, bowed his head and said, "My lord, it's all ready."

"What have you prepared?" Su Jian asked casually.

"Three barbarian red horses, three pots of kumiss, ten pots of clear spring water, six sheepskin blankets, several bags of tiger head gold and silver coins for the barbarians, several large bags of dry food, and—" the shopkeeper of the Mu family turned aside He turned his body sideways, "Here, Miss Tantai."

A young woman with a dark complexion but a delicate face stepped forward, and saw that she was wearing a dignified sheepskin tailor, showing a slender waist, and exuding the aura of a barbarian fierce sun all over her body. She said with a smile: "Tantai Mingyue, Met a few bosses."

Su Jian licked his lips, and the vitality from all over his body came back at once: "Boy named Mu, you understand me! You have prepared the most necessary preparations! This trip is long, and I really need such a little girl to relieve my heart What an annoyance!"

Mu Nianhua was taken aback, then smiled wryly, "Senior, I misunderstood, I misunderstood."

Su Baiyi came to his senses immediately, and said with a smile: "This girl from Tantai is our guide for this trip?"

Tantai Mingyue smiled and patted the leather whip on her waist: "Exactly."
