Harry stood outside the door, accompanied by Harpagus, the hotel steward, and an interpreter.
Harry looked like he was about to knock on the door, but when he saw Xia Xun coming out, he quickly retracted his hand and took a step back with a smile.
At this time, an exclamation suddenly came from the room. It turned out that Siren and Jeanne did not expect that there was someone at the door, because the clothes on their bodies were still very thin, and today was the first day that they changed from girls to women, and women's
Feeling shy, they quickly retreated with exclaims.
Harry said "Ah", took another step back, and apologized politely: "I'm sorry, I was presumptuous."
Xia Xun coughed twice and asked: "It turns out to be Mr. Harry, so early...what can I do for you?"
Xia Xun had secretly determined that this Harry must be Harry Sultan, the commander-in-chief of Tamerlane's right army who had rushed to Beelsebali first. However, he, a fake businessman, was the prey that the other party was pursuing everywhere, so for Harry, he was really
I couldn't avoid it, but strangely enough, this Harry seemed to get on well with him, and he liked to chat with him the most.
Little did he know that Harry deliberately wanted to get close to the Han merchants in order to learn as much as possible about the military conditions, folk customs and local affairs in the Western Regions from their mouths. Among them, he was the only one who wanted to get close without any purpose.
Just because Xia Xun would rather die than be humiliated that day and insisted on protecting his woman, he felt a close friend. In order to keep the black beauty Omi by his side, he almost caused everyone to desert him, so he became his friend.
Once a descendant of the heavily armed royal family loses power and is tricked to death, it is not a possibility, but a necessity. His precarious situation at that time was the same as that of Xia Xun, and they were just sympathetic.
Harry smiled brightly and said: "Harry and Mr. Xia hit it off immediately and like to get close to each other very much. My Omi, I also get along well with the two ladies around you. Today I am going to Chengxiao for hunting, and I specially invite Mr. Xia and you two."
A beautiful female companion is going with us, and we also ask Mr. Xia to look after her!"
Xia Xun wanted to avoid him, but the other party took the initiative to invite him, but he couldn't refuse. Because he was a businessman at the moment, and he was a businessman who was doing business in Beslos Bali for the first time. He was eager to open up the business routes here. At this time, a Western businessman
A big businessman, and also the cousin of General Soyalha takes the initiative to befriend him, will he turn him away?
So, Xia Xun immediately looked flattered and said, "Ah! That's great. I'm very happy to accept your invitation. Mr. Harry, please wait a moment and let us prepare."
Harry smiled and said: "Okay, our horses are ready, I'll listen to you at the gate!"
After saying that and walking away with Harpagus and the interpreter, Xia Xun quickly went back to explain Harry's purpose to Xilin and Jeanne. He hesitated again and asked: "Uh..., you two, are you riding horses today?"
...Ahem...is it convenient?"
The pretty faces of Siren and Jeanne suddenly turned red. Siren became a little shy, lowering her head and was embarrassed to look up at him. Jeanne was more generous, her face was like a big red cloth, but she bravely held up her chest and said: "Master
, we...can do it."
Xia Xun nodded and said, "Okay, then you guys get ready and I'll tell Yu Jue."
Xia Xun arrived at Liu Yujue's residence, explained to him where he was going, and asked him to take the opportunity to complete all the things agreed upon last night. When he came out, he took a look at Tang Sai'er's room, and found that the little girl was still sleeping soundly.
After a while, Xilin and Jeanne were both dressed up. According to Xia Xun's request, their faces were covered with gauze. Following Xia Xun out, when they arrived at the gate of the compound, they saw more than 20 people riding horses already there.
Waiting there, the horses were led by extremely strong warriors with swords and bows. Omi was next to Harry, obviously afraid that the strong wind and sand in the wild would damage his skin.
As soon as he saw Celine and Jeanne, Omi greeted them affectionately, took their hands and started talking.
Xia Xun said: "Mr. Harry, what we are riding here is a camel. This horse..."
Harry was stunned at first, then said: "This is easy to handle. Come here, prepare three horses for Mr. Xia!"
"No, no, no, it's four, four!"
Dumb, who was walking humbly at the end, hurriedly ran up to Harry, raised his finger at Harry, and smiled flatteringly: "Dear Mr. Harry, I am Mr. Xia Xun's servant!"

There is a mountain range running east-west on the eastern outskirts of the city. The mountains are not too high or dense, so there are many broad valleys and plains between the mountains. These mountains and rivers also protect these valleys from being eroded by the desert.
.
The forests in the valley are lush, and various evergreen trees dot the mountains. The valley is a semi-wall-like place. Some grasses are already turning green, wild flowers are in bloom, and the melting ice and snow on the mountains have merged into gurgling water and flowed down.
From the time they crossed the second valley, they could see some animals one after another, including red foxes, sand foxes, tigers, rabbits, and birds such as hairy-legged sand grouse, red-tailed shrike, and sabrings. When they crossed the fourth valley,
Wild ass, goose-throated antelope, grass hare and ring-necked pheasant are also often seen. However, these animals are very alert, and in the semi-walled valley flats, hunters riding horses can hardly escape their sight from a long distance, so in summer
Xun and the others could only ride on their horses and watch their graceful postures as they escaped from a distance.
"Just right here!"
Harry reined in the horse. He was very interested. After reining in the horse, he took off the hunting bow decorated with rhinoceros horns from his back. Using only the strength of his legs, he drove the horse to a relatively high ground.
Behind the slope, seven or eight knights had already galloped off without giving any instructions, apparently to drive away prey.
Xia Xun shook the horse's reins and slowly walked to Harry's side. Harry held the bow in his hand and happily looked at the blue sky, white clouds, high mountains, and the flat valley in front of him. He slowly raised his head and squinted his eyes.
Looking at a dazzling white cloud on the horizon, he said leisurely: "I like hunting, I like it very much..."
Xia Xun looked at his unguarded throat, his eyes narrowed slightly as if he had seen prey, and he couldn't help but think: "If I swipe away with a knife now..."
But this stupid idea was immediately given up by him.
Harry had no idea, and still said yearningly: "No matter how cunning the prey is, it is much simpler and cuter than humans. When I gallop among the green mountains and green waters, I will forget all intrigues; when I cross the endless desert, I
I will feel the fragility and tenacity of life. When I understand life and feel life, my mind will become broader..."
Harry looked away and saw Xia Xun's empty hands. He was startled and asked curiously: "Mr. Xia, where is your bow?"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "To be honest, my archery skills are not very good, and I don't want to show my shame in front of you."
Harry smiled and said: "It's just hunting. It's about mood. It's not about competing in archery skills."
Xia Xun said: "What Mr. Harry said is true. It's like fishing. It doesn't matter whether the fish takes the bait or not. What we fish for is the mood. It's enough to be able to visit this landscape with you."
He also turned his eyes to the blue sky and the dazzling white clouds, and said leisurely: "A person's vision determines the height at which he sees problems. Therefore, people who have never seen the world will eventually have narrow vision; and trekking
People who have traveled thousands of miles have a broad mind and far-reaching intentions, so they often stand out. Moreover, hunting itself is a process of witnessing the existence and destruction of life. At this time, you will discover many beauties that you have ignored.
You will look at the world with more gratitude and thank God for giving you life and letting you come to this world!"
Xia Xun's words hit Harry's heart, and he nodded repeatedly. When he heard the last sentence, Harry was even more surprised and cried out: "Mr. Xia, are you also a believer in Allah?"
When he got an affirmative answer, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately got a little closer to Xia Xun. Originally, he felt that this Xia Xun's special sympathy was actually closer than those of his ruthless and unjust compatriots. After learning that
After this fact, he already regarded Xia Xun as a brother. The more the two chatted, the closer they became. Harry, who had always been cautious around a bunch of so-called relatives in the royal family and did not dare to express his feelings, it was rare for him to have such a person.
He had no interest in anything and was such a sympathetic friend, and for a while he had nothing to talk about.
Xia Xun played the role of a businessman perfectly. After chatting for a while, he lost no time in mentioning his business. Harry listened with a smile. After he finished speaking, he said: "My brother, actually I..."
When he just said this, there was a sudden sound of hoofbeats in the distance. When he looked up, he saw dozens of large and small prey, driven by his knights, galloping towards here.
Harry perked up, and with a move of his fingers, an arrow was nocked on the string, and he said excitedly: "The prey is here!"
There are a lot of prey in this mountain, and Harry's archery skills are even more superb.
Xia Xun noticed that when he was at his fastest, he could shoot five arrows in a row, and four of them actually hit the prey. The hit rate at this speed was really amazing. After the attack, the prey saw a death in front of them, constantly harvesting them.
He lost his life and fled back the way he came in desperation. Harry's guards were only responsible for driving them away, not hunting them, but they broke out of the encirclement and fled back.
Harry, who was eager to kill, laughed loudly and chased after him with a wave of his horse's head, but Xia Xun just stood still and watched with a smile. At this time, three women also rode up to them, and Omi smiled at Xia Xun.
Xun said: "Mr. Xia Xun, don't you show your skills?"
After hearing what the interpreter said, Xia Xun smiled at Omi and said, "Miss Omi, I don't have the superb archery skills of Mr. Harry."
Omi smiled after hearing this, but she did not hesitate to praise her sweetheart, so she answered with a smile: "Harry's riding and shooting skills are indeed very good. He..."
As soon as she said this, several Juechen knights came galloping from the mountain pass where they came. Harry's two guards saw this and rushed forward. After a while, they led the knights back and said to Omi: "Left Route Army
Marshal General Shaharul sent an urgent message!"
Omi looked tense and said quickly: "Call Harry back quickly!"
On the side, Xia Xun duck listened to the thunder, and hurriedly waved Ah-Dai to his side, and asked in a low voice: "What did they say?"
After hearing Ah-Dai's answer, Xia Xun's heart moved and he hurriedly ordered: "Listen carefully to me, maybe this will be a big business opportunity!"
