Chapter 56 A Zhuo Family
It turned out that the group of nomadic herdsmen waiting at the city gate were all Shen Yu's people pretending to be.
There were about a hundred people in the entire team, including young, old, weak, and old. The youngest was a boy in his teens.
Chu Wenwan really thought it was a child, and she was still curious as to why Shen Yu would let a child follow him to such a dangerous place.
Later, Shen Yucai told him that it was not a child, but a dwarf pretending to be a child, and that except for her, a woman, the others in the team were all young people pretending to be a child.
Dressing up like this, it's obvious that they do this kind of thing often, and they are completely professional.
Wen Wan and Wen En both changed into the clothes of safari herdsmen, and the two of them got on a carriage that had been prepared long ago.
The cart was piled high with all kinds of fur goods, and it looked no different from a nomadic herdsman merchant.
Taking advantage of the lunch break, Wen Wan found Shen Yu secretly.
She got straight to the point, "Can you give me a pigskin mask?"
Shen Yu was drinking water from the kettle. Hearing this, he glanced at her with disdain.
"Do you know how much a pigskin mask like this costs?"
You don't need to think about it to know that it's expensive. Wen Wan pursed her lips and put on a flattering smile, "We are brothers and sisters on the same boat now. What kind of money are we talking about? How many outsiders are we seeing?"
She is thick-skinned and doesn't blush at all when it's time to put down her posture.
Shen Yu has never seen a girl like her, "Shameless!"
Wen Wan murmured: "I want the horse to run, but I don't want to let the horse eat grass. Look at my fair and tender appearance, even if I put on the clothes of a safari herdsman, my temperament is not the same. What if I wear it? , shouldn’t it affect the safety of the entire team? I’m doing this for your own good.
It makes sense, and it is true.
Shen Yu raised his hand and pinched her chin, "White and tender? Shall I take a closer look?"
With a little force of his fingers, he pulled her to him.
The two people were so close, their eyes met, and a flowing ambiguity suddenly arose between them.
Wen Wan blinked her eyes, pouted her mouth, and spoke with unclear words, "Do you see clearly? I have used beauty to seduce you, so you can at least give me some face."
"Ha," he laughed at her funny look, "she does have some beauty in her."
Wen Wan: "...?"
She was just joking and he didn't refute?
Unexpectedly, his next sentence would hit her hard again.
"Such beauty is comparable to that of Sun Erhua from Jiekou."
Sun Erhua from the corner of the street was a well-known ugly girl. She was not married until she was fifty years old.
Wen Wan slapped his hand away angrily, "Forget it if you don't give it, why are you still insulting someone?"
She turned to leave, but Shen Yu grabbed her arm.
Wen Wan tightened her hand, looked down, and saw that he had placed a pigskin mask in her hand.
"The mask has been specially treated. Just dip it in water and stick it on your face. When you take it off, apply some vinegar first, and then you can take it off easily."
He simply explained the usage and then said: "I didn't know you were going to take Winn with you, so I didn't prepare anything for him. However, his skin color is the same as that of a safari herdsman, so it should be fine without a mask."
It turned out that he had prepared hers a long time ago?
Then he deliberately teased her for so long?
Wen Wan Nai snorted fiercely, turned around and left without even saying thank you.
Shen Yu looked at her back and couldn't help but shook his head.
Such a little temper.

Nomads live wherever they go.
At dusk, the team arrived at the edge of the grassland. At first glance, in addition to the continuous yellow grass, there were only a few short shrubs half a person's height. The young men in the team began to set up tents, while the women set up pots to cook.
If Wen Wan didn't know their details, Wen Wan would really think that they were just hard-working nomadic herdsmen.
"It's amazing."
Wen Wan sighed once again, amazed by what she saw.
Wen En stood next to her. Hearing this, he snorted coldly, seeming to be very disdainful.
Wen Wan: "Well, I have to teach you well. Appreciating the strengths of others does not mean that you are weak. Don't be stingy in praising others."
She is like a middle-aged and elderly woman who will educate young people whenever she gets the chance.
She had no choice but to worry about the little brother she had picked up.
Wen En didn't say a word, but proudly moved his gaze to the dusk on the horizon.
Suddenly, he stood up and pulled Wen Wan's arm.
"Someone is coming!"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Wen Wan was startled and followed his gaze, "I didn't see it."
"Here we come!" Wen En frowned slightly and reminded: "There are quite a few people coming. Please be quiet for a while. Your accent is different from that of people from the border towns."
"Oh." Wen Wan responded doubtfully, and after a while, she saw some small moving dots appearing on the horizon.
She whispered, "Your eyes are so powerful, you can see even from such a distance!"
Winn didn't respond or explain.
However, Shen Yu, who was not far away, saw his reaction and his eyes became deeper.
Gradually approaching, there is also a group of nomadic herdsmen, but unlike them, these herdsmen are all young adults in their twenties and thirties, all riding tall horses, very majestic.
The leader is actually very young, he looks to be in his early twenties, his skin is a healthy wheat color, and his facial features are very regular, but when he looks at people, his eyes are a little hesitant.
After a group of people approached, he got off his horse and shouted, "Is your leader here?"
Usually a team is a large family of nomadic herdsmen, and the person in charge of the family is the leader.
Shen Yu slowly walked out of the crowd with his back bent, took a long puff of cigarette, and then raised his head and said: "I'm here. Which family do you little bastards come from?"
Little brat is not a curse word.
Among nomadic herdsmen, calling young people "little bastards" is a semi-jargon term.
As soon as these words came out, the leading young man's eyes softened obviously.
"Uncle, my surname is Adhuo, and my last name is Xin. We have been chasing a group of leopards for half a month, and we have almost eaten all the dry food we brought. It is a coincidence that we met you."
He gave a brief explanation and said with a smile: "Uncle, how about we give you some money, work with you, and have a few meals together?"
On the grasslands, it is common for nomadic herdsmen to team up with other families when they run out of ammunition and food. Generally, no one will refuse. Once they refuse, according to the habits of their tribe, they will fall out on the spot and grab everything they can. It's possible.
What's more, this young man also gave the name A Zhuo.
This is a common surname among safari herdsmen, and it is the largest safari family.
Shen Yuba smoked, "It turns out they are from the Adhuo family. Of course that's okay. Forget about the money, we are all brothers and sisters, so it is natural for them to help each other."
Azhuoxin was not surprised by this result, so he gestured to the others, and a group of young adults followed him and got off their horses.
Suddenly, A Zhuoxin's eyes fell on Wen En, and he said "Huh" in surprise.
