Chapter 130: Baghdad

"Dad, you really want me to wear my brother's clothes, it's so tight." Zhao Ling'er complained while adjusting the inappropriate men's clothing.

"Don't complain, if you want to go to Baghdad, you have to wear this." At this time, Zhao Weiji was helping Zhao Linger to combed her long hair into a boy's style.

"Why, you have to dress up as a boy." Since Zhao Ling'er is several years older than Zhao Teng, and the girl has developed earlier than boys, Zhao Teng's clothes look like she put on Zhao Ling'er.

Short and tight.

This is also because Zhao Teng inherited the body shape of his grandfather Chai Rong. Although he doesn't like to exercise very much, he is still taller than children of the same age. Otherwise, it would be hard to say whether Zhao Linger could wear this outfit.

"If you want to cover yourself with your face, wrap your headscarf, and then wrap your body tightly before going to Baghdad, you won't have to wear your brother's clothes."

When Zhao Linger heard this dress, she thought about the hot weather in this place. She immediately shook her head and honestly asked his father to dress her up as a boy.

In fact, Zhao Weiji didn't want his daughter to suffer so much, but there was no way. They were about to enter the Arab world, where they were so harsh in treating women.

The Qur'an clearly states: "Prophet! You should say to your wife, your daughter, and the women of believers: They should cover their bodies with their cloaks. This is the easiest way to make people know them without being violated.

.Allah is the most forgiven and the most merciful."

In order to protect women's chastity in the Arab world, they must wrap everything except their eyes.

Out of respect for local religious customs, Zhao Weiji had to dress up his daughter as a boy.

At this moment, Zhao Teng, who had already changed his clothes in another room, walked in and saw his sister turning from a watery little girl to a silly boy who was a little masturbating, which was a little out of place.

In addition, his clothes were really small on the old lady and looked a little funny. So when this funny and that kind of incongruity were combined, Zhao Teng could no longer help but hug him.

My stomach burst into laughter.

Zhao Ling'er, who was already awkward, was ridiculed by her younger brother again. She was really angry, so she shouted at Zhao Teng: "Stop laughing, sister, I want you to look good."

However, this did not play a big role. Although Zhao Teng stopped laughing for a while, when he looked up and saw his sister's image, coupled with the anger and shy expression on his face.

, and immediately burst out even louder laughter. These were no longer simply covering their stomachs, but rolling on the ground with their stomachs.

Even Zhao Weiji couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhao Ling'er's appearance.

Seeing that even my dad was laughing at me, Zhao Ling'er stopped doing anything at all. She was as if I was about to take off this torn dress and would not go at all.

When Zhao Weiji saw her daughter's posture, she naturally knew that she could not tease her anymore, so she immediately restrained her smile and then pretended to scold Zhao Teng: "Stop laughing, your sister has finally helped you make money to Baghdad.

You still don’t want to have an opportunity. If you don’t want it, don’t get off the boat later and follow the boat back to the Black Pearl.”

When Zhao Teng heard his father say this, he naturally knew that he could not smile anymore. Originally, this opportunity was earned by his sister, so he had to give her some face, so Zhao Teng also restrained his smile.

At this moment, Wang Dayuan walked in from outside the cabin and reported to Zhao Weiji that he was about to arrive and was about to get off the boat. So the father and daughter hurriedly packed up their things, then walked out of the cabin and prepared to get off the boat.

The place where the ship docked is called Khomeini, which is the closest port city in the Persian Gulf to Baghdad. It is also an important port of the Arab Empire, so the ship was subject to strict inspection after entering the port.

Fortunately, Wang Dayuan used to travel between the Arab Empire and the Central Plains. He was familiar with these procedures and with the blessing of gold, so he easily got permission to enter the city.

However, even so, their group was still under investigation, at least their weapons were inspected. Fortunately, Zhao Weiji and his group only brought short swords and Mauser rifles to defend themselves.

The short knife was not a threat, and the Muslims of Mauser couldn't understand what it was, so they easily passed the cross-examination.

After entering Khomeini Port, Zhao Weiji's two children immediately experienced a different world, because among the people in this group, there was actually only Zhao Weiji's family who had never been to the Arab world. Others who were selected to go to Baghdad were actually the same before.

I have been to the Arab world, although many of them have never been to Baghdad, but I have still entered cities of the Arab Empire.

Among Zhao Weiji's family, the only two children who really have no image concept of the Arab world. Although Zhao Weiji has never been to the Arab world, his advanced consultation in his previous life still has a certain understanding of this world.

So the two children who really entered another world immediately developed endless curiosity. Those dome houses were so strange, why did those people have bundles of cloth wrapped around their heads?

Also, their beards are so strange and they are dressed strangely. And what exactly is the animal they are holding that always looks like a horse but is not a horse?

Everything brought unprecedented experience to the two children. With the curiosity arising from this experience, these two children transformed into 100,000 whys, and Zhao Weiji naturally became their answerer.

The dome is because their religion wants this, and the one on the head is a headscarf, which is their national costume. The beard is born with them, and the animal is called camels. Then we will go to Baghdad to

Ride them.

In short, with endless questions, Zhao Weiji must answer endlessly. He can still answer some questions, but he doesn't know the answers to some questions at all.

So he was not very upset and decided to find something for the two naughty kids. It just so happened that he had a notebook and two pencils on hand, so he divided the notebook into two parts, and each one was accompanied by one.

The pencil was handed over to the two children.

"Do you remember the way I taught you how to draw?"

"Remember." The two children said at the same time.

"So now I'll give you a task, which is to draw all the beautiful buildings or people you feel strange, and then take them home for your mother to see. Is it OK?"

Both children nodded, then took the paper and pen, and began to find what they wanted to draw.

Now Zhao Weiji is finally relieved for the time being.

This notebook and pencil were naturally made by Xinhua City itself based on the method provided by Zhao Weiji. The way Zhao Weiji mentioned is the modern method of drawing pencils. Because he found that Chinese painting is a bit troublesome for quick sketching, so he also said that Chinese painting is a bit difficult.

While letting children learn Chinese painting, they should teach them the method of pencil drawing.

Just after the two children started drawing things, Zhao Weiji had to discuss with Wang Dayuan how to go to Baghdad.

There are more than twenty people in their group now. Except for Zhao Weiji's family of three, Wang Dayuan, everyone else is the sailor on the boat, and the Viking leader.

Yang Hua was left on the Black Pearl.

However, even if there are only a few more than twenty people, it is still a big team, so we naturally have to discuss how to go to Baghdad.

According to Wang Dayuan's meaning, I will rest for a night tonight at Port Khomeini, and buy some camels in the city and set off tomorrow morning.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Dayuan and his group came to a hotel-like place. As soon as they entered the hotel, Wang Dayuan greeted the boss cordially, which showed that he was very familiar with the boss here.

After a few greetings with the boss, Wang Dayuan opened several rooms on the counter and asked the boss to help buy more than thirty camels.

Then Wang Dayuan took his men out of the hotel and went to the market to purchase the items needed for the next trip, especially drinking water.

After everything was done, the members of the team entered the room to rest.

Early the next morning, before both children woke up, the team set out because the way to Baghdad had to pass through the desert. If the oasis could not be found before noon, it would be very uncomfortable.

Got to set out earlier.

So Zhao Weiji and Wang Dayuan held a child who was still dozing off in their arms, and then set off with the entire team.

Since Wang Dayuan is familiar with the route from Port Khomeini to Baghdad, and there is also a Viking leader who is also familiar with the road conditions, they are lucky to arrive at an oasis before noon and avoid the most of the day

When it's hot.

And in the afternoon when the sun was a little west, but when it started to set, the group set off again, and they had to reach the first town before the day set.

Because the temperature difference between night and daytime in the desert is too large, it is basically impossible to spend the night, and it will be accompanied by threats, so after avoiding the hottest time at noon, you still have to rush.

Fortunately, Wang Dayuan arranged the entire journey very well. They did not encounter any trouble on this road. In five days, they entered Baghdad safely.

After entering Baghdad, Zhao Weiji finally realized what this one of the largest cities in the Arab world looks like.

This place is completely different from the previous Khomeini. It is more prosperous and huge, with more mosques and a larger trade market.

Countless people from different countries gather here, and a feeling of blending between the East and the West arises naturally. Moreover, Zhao Weiji also felt a strong cultural atmosphere permeating the air.

From this he was sure that choosing to come to Baghdad this time was an extremely correct decision and he would never regret it.
