Luo Yong's original official rank was from the seventh rank. After being demoted to Changle County, Guazhou as the county magistrate, his rank was downgraded to the seventh rank, not much, and he was also the chief of a county.

There are not many people who object to Luo Yong's intention to be a county magistrate. The people in the market also take this as a matter of course. People like Li Shi Luo Sanlang, would they even demote him to another place to serve as the position of the county magistrate chief clerk? It is simply a disgrace to have a good talent!

Thinking about this, Luo's efforts and management over the years have not been in vain.

On the day Luo Yong left the city, many people came to see him off, and there were those he knew and those he didn’t know.

Most of the people who had learned arithmetic from Luo Yong in the past came, some of them had their faces as usual, some of whom showed shame. After Luo Yong talked to everyone, he smiled at them, waved his hand, and left after getting on the donkey cart.

"Brother!" Si Niang shouted loudly, not to mention the loudest voice.

"Let's go back, brother will write a letter to you in a few days." Luo Yong poked out the donkey cart and waved his hand to them.

The girl Qi Niang cried loudly while holding Si Niang's arm. Luo Yong's eyes couldn't help but turn red. Liulang didn't cry. Since this kid went to school, he has become much stronger.

Goro stood there with Mai Qing Dou Li'er, touching Mai Qing from time to time, and from time to time, looking up at the direction where Luo Yong left. Luo Yong smiled at him, waved his hand, and retracted back into the car.

It would be great if I could get my phone out, Luo Yong thought to himself that he wouldn't need a smartphone that could take photos and videos, as long as he could make a phone call.

Thinking about it, I feel it is very unrealistic. Instead of thinking about these things, it is better to make achievements in Guazhou earlier and let the emperor transfer him back soon.

If the place in Guazhou was said in later generations, it should be considered on the Silk Road. However, there is no such thing as the Silk Road, and even the early prototype of the Silk Road, the Chaotianzi Road, has not appeared yet.

At this time in the early Tang Dynasty, although there was trade between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions, the current trade scale was obviously insignificant compared with the prosperity of the Silk Road in later generations.

The famous monk Xuanzang in history has just gone abroad not long ago. It will take at least seven or eight years to return from his studies. At this time, the Buddhist culture in the Western Regions has probably not developed much.

Without the Silk Road and without "The Record of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty", what else is there in Guazhou now?

I heard that there is the Han Great Wall there. The Great Wall not only exists as a fortification, but also an important transportation line and supply line. Businessmen often prefer to walk along the Great Wall.

Next to Guazhou is a sandbank. There are two familiar places in the sandbank, Yangguan and Yumenguan.

"I advise you to have a glass of wine, and there is no friend when you go west to Yangguan." "Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not cross Yumen Pass?" These two places are mentioned.

Fortunately, Luo Yong did not need to leave the customs. Although Changle County is remote, it is still within Yangguan and Yumenguan.

In the Changle County, Guazhou, there is Daxue Mountain in the south, the Han Great Wall in the north, the Shazhou to the west, and Suzhou to the east, and Ganzhou to the south. Speaking of which, the name Gansu Province in later generations is probably what comes from.

Ganzhou will be Liangzhou again, and Erniang and the others are there. This time Luo Yong will definitely pass through Liangzhou City when he takes office...

"What are you thinking?" Qiao Junlin in the car asked Luo Yong.

"I'm thinking, if we face those Turkic people by then, you can hold on with them a few moves." Luo Yong said with a smile. Qiao Junlin also came with him this time, which he had not expected before.

"Of course I can hold on for a longer time than you." Qiao Junlin sneered.

"That may not be." Luo Yong's stone in the space has not been thrown away yet, and he can still withstand one or two at critical moments.

"You'd better take a break, the road is still far." Not to mention the dangers you may encounter along the way, just such a long journey is enough for Luo Yong to drink a pot. Qiao Junlin was worried that his little body would not be able to hold on.

This time, Qiao Junlin went to Changle County, Shazhou to take up his post with Luo Yong. After careful consideration, his uncle Hou Lin did not object to his decision.

To put it bluntly, even if you stay in Chang'an City, no matter how many banquets you go to and spend more time managing, it is still difficult to make a breakthrough. At this moment, it is better to hug Luo Yong's thigh tightly. That's right, even if Luo Yong is depressed now, he is still one of the few thighs around them that can be seen and reached.

Of course, this is just a consideration from the interests.

As for emotions, Qiao Junlin never said anything to Luo Yong, and he never said the most common words of concern and thanks, and so did Luo Yong.

I have to say that Qiao Junlin's addition made Luo Yong's originally bleak heart a little more vivid.

In addition, this time, the three black men who had just come from Lishi County were traveling with them.

Luo Yong had no serious servant, but this time he went to Changle County as a county magistrate to take up his post, so he couldn't even help around him. After thinking about it, he still brought Apu and the others.

At this time, Luo used their donkey cart in front of him, and the other two black men followed behind him. They also had a donkey cart, which contained some dry food and necessary daily necessities.

In this winter, the wind and snow are strong, and the snow on the road surface is already very thick. Luo Yong and the others are not very familiar with the road conditions to the sandbank. If they walk fast, they will easily get accidents, so they did not choose a carriage this time.

Moreover, Luo Yong also wanted to bring the five pairs with him. For a donkey like the five pairs, Chang'an City is still a bit frustrating after all, and it is not as free as the Western Regions.

The car drove away from Chang'an City. The more we walked to the west, the more desolate what we saw in front of us.

When I stayed in Chang'an City, although I was a large city with a short house, built several rooms in a large yard of one acre of land, and the people in the capital still grew vegetables in their own yards, they were not much better than the scene in front of me.

Looking at this vast deserted world, Luo Yong couldn't help but think of the population of Hedong Road that Zou Lizheng had told him in the past.

This era is indeed a sparsely populated era compared to later generations.

So whenever they arrive at an inn and pass by a city, they will be extremely happy. Even those who have never met each other seem so friendly. No matter what, at least they are humans, aren't they?

About twenty days later, Luo Yong and others crossed the Yellow River in Lanzhou, crossed Lanzhou, and since then they stepped onto the Hexi Corridor.

There was Tubo in the south and Turkic in the north. The Tang Dynasty occupied this narrow and long and fertile land between these two powerful forces.

Looking back at how sad and reluctant the Huns who originally settled here were when Emperor Wu of Han ordered Huo Qubing and others to occupy this Hexi Corridor.

"Lost my Qilian Mountains will prevent my animals from flourishing. Lost my mountains will cause my women to lose their color."

However, before the Huns, it was said that this piece of land originally belonged to the Yuezhi Kingdom.

This is how it was in this era. It is normal for countries to attack each other. The Hexi Corridor between Tubo and Turks is rich, but also dangerous compared to the surrounding areas.

But the danger here seems to have nothing to do with Luo Yong.

This legend is very rich, but in fact, it is still very deserted than the Central Plains. There are many herders living in the story of these herders. Among the stories passed down by word of mouth, there is the story of Li Shi Luosanlang and his sister making soap with mutton fat and weaving clothes with cashmere.

The herdsmen welcomed Luo Yong's arrival very much. They took out the best food to entertain Luo Yong and others, although those foods may not be delicious for Luo Yong.

These people did not know the ups and downs of Chang'an City. They referred to Luo Yong's as the will of the gods.

These words sounded happy at first, and it would be easy for you to believe yourself if you listen too much, but even in this case, Luo Yong did not lose his guard.

Because humans will never have only a warm and friendly side, whether they are from a farming society or a nomadic people, even when facing the messengers sent by their gods, it is the same.

In Luo Yong's view, the so-called religious beliefs were originally woven out of people to carry the weakness in human nature.

The more trusted and believing, the more he needs to be cautious. Luo Yong acts like a most ordinary young man. When the herdsmen gather in a short time, he occasionally takes five pairs out to practice with the young men in the tribe.

Luo Yong naturally couldn't beat the young people on the grassland. Fortunately, those people were all light in their attacks on him, but it was always inevitable to throw a few dogs into mud.

Qiao Junlin's record is quite good. Sometimes when they first arrived at the same tribe, everyone would come over to visit Lishi Luosanlang three times inside and three times outside. After a short while, they would go to see Qiao Junlin fight with the young men in their tribe.

"It's not me that Luo Sanro's body is too weak."

"If it weren't for the young man named Qiao, he would have been taken away by the wolf pack on the snow mountain long ago."

"Oh, poor kid."

"The gods are fair. Since they have given him a smart mind, they will not give him a strong body anymore."

Most nomadic peoples admire the strong. Weak men cannot protect their wives and children when wild animals arrive, nor can they fight side by side with the warriors in the tribe when foreign enemies invade. They usually die too quickly.

However, everyone was very tolerant of Luo Yong, at least they did not discriminate against him because of his record of losing every battle.
