Chapter 265
The hillside is still quiet in the middle of the night.

Many people in the camp at the bottom of the mountain had already dispersed, and the bonfire was much darker, but there were still some people who were reluctant to leave, and still gathered around the fire, singing and dancing, as if they had endless energy and enthusiasm.

"What..."

Behind him came the cry of a sheep.

Empress Sanhua held the rope with one hand and stood beside the sheep, while gently stroking the neck of the sheep with the other hand, talking to the sheep in a low voice.

If you don't listen carefully, you still think the picture is very beautiful.

Listen carefully to find out what she said:

"Yang Zi Yang Zi is good...

"Don't run around at night...

"There are ghosts here.

"Tomorrow will be fine.

"I'll eat you tomorrow."

Song You remained expressionless and unmoved in his heart. He only held the bowl in one hand and the water bag in the other, and poured water into the bowl.

"Guru..."

There was a slight sound of water.

Mistress Sanhua heard this, she craned her neck and looked in this direction, and saw that the bowl in the Taoist's hand was her own, and the water was almost half full. She wanted to pretend she didn't know, so she turned her head away. What turned his head back again, hesitated for a while, then walked over consciously.

"It's time for Empress Sanhua to drink water."

The soft and thin voice came from her own mouth.

After finishing speaking, he took the bowl from the Taoist, raised his head and drank it down after a few sips.

Holding the bowl after drinking, thoughtful.

It feels a little weird.

When becoming a human, drinking water seems to be very fast.

"..."

Mistress Sanhua smacked her mouth, turned around and put her small bowl back into her bag, then walked back and said to the Taoist: "Taoist, tell me, Mistress Sanhua and the horse can run every day and win every day." A lamb back? Then we will have many lambs."

"That's not good."

The Taoist said to her lightly.

"why?"

"Because this is a grand event on the prairie, and it was organized by people from the prairie. We are outsiders. To win a sheep is already a magnanimity of others. Don't be too greedy." Song You said, "And Mistress Sanhua is very Powerful, if you keep grabbing with others, it looks like you are bullying people."

"Miss Sanhua is amazing!"

"Yes, if a powerful person is generous, he will be very attractive."

"Charm~"

"Just being likable."

"Miss Sanhua is lovable!"

"Of course,"

"Then Empress Sanhua won't go for these two days, she will go on the last day." The little girl said while quietly looking at the Taoist, "Will you win another horse and come back? Horses are more expensive than sheep."

"We already have a horse, so let's give that horse to someone else." Song You smiled and looked at her. "Miss Sanhua is so powerful, there is really no need to grab it with those children."

"right……"

"What does Empress Sanhua think?"

"Empress Sanhua thinks you are right."

"Mistress Sanhua is generous."

"Empress Sanhua is powerful and magnanimous!"

Mistress Sanhua was talking to herself, then she turned her head and looked behind her at the sheep she had won today, and it might be the only sheep she won today, and asked, "Then how are we going to eat this sheep tomorrow?"

"Such a big sheep, I'm afraid we won't be able to finish it."

"right……"

"then what should we do?"

"then what should we do?"

"What did Empress Sanhua say?"

"The Taoist said what to do!"

"Since Empress Sanhua won the sheep, it is natural that Empress Sanhua should make the decision."

"Since Mistress Sanhua and Ma'er won the sheep together, it is natural for Mistress Sanhua and Ma'er to make the decision." Mistress Sanhua said, turning her head to look at the horse next to her, "What does Ma'er say?"

However, the bay red horse just stood silently, gnawed on the grass on the ground, and ignored her.

So she only looked at it for a while, then she had to look back, facing the Taoist and thinking for a while, and then said: "We can make bacon from the sheep that we can't finish."

"is it?"

"Yeah, it's hot now, I can't make bacon anymore."

"Mistress Sanhua is very smart."

"Then what else can I do?"

"Then what else can I do?" Song You imitated Mistress Sanhua's habits, and imitated her speech, and added, "Mistress Sanhua is very smart, and trivial matters will definitely not trouble Mistress Sanhua."

"Mistress Sanhua is very smart..."

Mistress Sanhua repeated what he said, and just after finishing speaking, she immediately said: "We can go down and sell the sheep and exchange them for money, so we can carry them all the time!"

"Miss Sanhua is really smart."

"Then Mistress Sanhua will sell it tomorrow."

"Then tomorrow..."

The little girl repeated it habitually, but she froze in the middle of her words and looked up at him.

Song You smiled, "I'm with Empress Sanhua."

"Ok!"

"Miss Sanhua, go to sleep."

"Miss Sanhua doesn't sleep." The little girl turned her head to look at Ye beside her, "Miss Sanhua saw a rabbit seller down below today, and rabbits can also be sold for money."

"..."

Song You was quite helpless, but he didn't want to worry about it, so he could only say, "Then I wish Empress Sanhua a good harvest."

"Ok."

A sound of smoke exploded.

The little girl in front of her had disappeared, and turned into a three-colored cat, turning her head and not knowing where to look.

Song You sighed and lay down silently.

In early March, the moon is like silk.

When it is opened, it is full of stars.

The Taoist closed his eyes.

"What..."

From time to time, there are sheep bleating around.

The sheep is restless all night.

In the middle of the night, there are ghosts wandering in the mountains, sometimes shuttling among the tents below, watching from tent to tent, I don’t know what they are doing, sometimes they run to harm other people’s cattle and sheep, when they are discovered, a large flock is startled by the sound of dogs barking The bold prairie man had no choice but to flee in a hurry, and sometimes ran to the top of the mountain, passing by the Taoist, but before he could get close to the Taoist, he was scared by the smoke from the three-flowered cat that came out of nowhere and fled here.

……

Early next morning.

The blue sky is clear and clear, and there is no cloud in the thousand miles. As far as the eye can see, the ground is green and the sky is blue, monotonous and boring, but also open and boundless.

The Taoist packed up his things patiently like every day before, and then went down the mountain with the bay red horse, Mistress Sanhua, the sheep she had won, and the hare she had caught overnight.

The mountain line is gentle, and several figures descend slowly.

The trade of cattle, sheep and horses is an important part of the trade market of the Grassland Society, and there is a dedicated area for the sale of livestock.

Especially horses.

The best horses in Dayan are produced here, and it is the biggest event in the grassland of the year at this time. Even though the north is chaotic and there are ghosts everywhere, if General Chen hadn't rushed back to the border to sit in town last year, Saibei people's cavalry might cross over at any time Here, but there are still merchants from all over the place who come here from different routes to see if they can use various methods to pick up some government officials to buy the remaining horses.

The market is bustling.

Song You walked all the way, but many people recognized Sanhua Empress and the bay red horse who won the first prize at the jockey meeting yesterday morning, and wanted to buy this ugly horse, but before Song You refused, Sanhua Empress He turned them down very seriously, and asked them if they wanted to buy sheep and rabbits.

This little thing is really smart.

Immediately, the group walked to the market where the sheep were sold, and Mistress Sanhua ran over alone, staring at others for a long time, wanting to know how much a sheep costs, and secretly learning people's sheep selling skills.

Most of the buyers are businessmen from other places.

Most of the sellers are local herdsmen.

Mandarin and local dialect are mixed.

Some whispered about the price, while others secretly touched their hands.

If the negotiator can also understand, she will rely on her own hearing, stand at a distance and stare at others, eavesdropping carefully.

If someone touches their hands in the sleeves, she will run over and quietly lift up the sleeves of others to look inside.When she meets a kind person who stares at her blankly, she raises her head to meet the other person's gaze and asks, and when she meets someone with a bad temper who scolds her, she is like an ordinary animal being chased away. Like a cat, he ran away quickly as usual, and stared at him again at a distance.

It took a lot of time to finally sell the sheep.

A few rabbits also sold well.

Because the rabbits caught by Empress Sanhua only have a few small holes in the neck, compared with the ones shot with arrows, it has little effect on the fur, and the selling price is also very good.

People often ask how they caught it.

Empress Sanhua said she caught it herself.

After selling out and leaving this place, Mistress Sanhua had money in her arms, feeling heavy and full of sense of accomplishment.

Although there was still no expression on her face, in the eyes of Song You, who knew her well enough, that complacency was almost three feet high.

After selling the cattle and sheep, you have to ask the officials.

Although Lin Chang knew about the ghosts in Turtle City in the north, he thought that most of the sources of information were local legends, which were naturally not as accurate as the government.Just like last night, Lin often said that those ghosts don't eat people, but the officials also said that they frightened many people to death by frightening the sick.

So I went to the middle of the big tents.

When I happened to walk here, I ran into the young official who asked the expert last night why he didn't go to the north to eliminate the demons. Song You also had a few words with him when he asked about the details of the grassland meeting.

The young official didn't know that he was almost killed by the evil ghost last night, but he was just deceived and frightened by the ghost, so he was very cautious.Hearing that Taoist was going to visit the ghost city, he couldn't help looking at him suspiciously and vigilantly. It wasn't until Taoist said that he didn't want anything, but just wanted to ask, that he spoke to him with his youthful vigor.

The ghost in Turtle City was indeed transformed into a soldier.

Over the years, there has indeed been no case of cannibalism.

Just because they don't eat people doesn't mean they don't harm people.

There are not many cases related to them.

Soldiers and bandits are sometimes hard to tell. Even though Dayan's military laws are strict, and the northern frontier army is especially strict, conflicts between officers and soldiers and civilians are still inevitable.

Not to mention turning into a ghost.

In this grassland, not every household has herds of cattle, sheep, and countless horses. Most of the people are also living a hard life. Some ghosts come out and harm their livestock. Starve to death in winter.

But such things are not uncommon.

This is what armies everywhere do.

Some officials turned a blind eye when they knew about it, while others were upright and unwilling to tolerate it.

What's more, the ghosts gather, the ghosts are too heavy, and a piece of land is turned into a wasteland. These officials are also very embarrassed.

Coupled with the fact that humans and ghosts have different paths, some people have weak yang energy and light horoscopes, and if they encounter evil ghosts by chance, they may suffer from a serious illness or die of fright on the spot.

When the government received the report, they naturally couldn't just sit idly by.

Dayan's various laws and regulations are quite strict and thoughtful.

If you don't send someone to look at it, and don't invite someone to deal with it, it will be considered a dereliction of duty, but the folk experts you invite have also been killed by ghosts.

Which is really complicated.

I went to ask others again, and it was probably the same.

Song You sounded more and more curious.
