Chapter 6: Little Wolf Cubs
The felt tent is made of two to three layers of thick wool felt, the general knife is not easy to cut, but the stone rope holds the sharp knife for the ancestral thing, it is said that it is the Liao Taizu Yelu Abaoji gifted, it is extremely sharp, and this is also the only valuable thing in the stone family.
The stone used an ancestral knife to cut a gap in the felt tent, and then without half a moment's hesitation, he drilled into the felt tent.
At this time Hal was sleeping soundly with a slave girl in his arms, and the oil lamps hanging in the tent were giving off a flickering light, so that the stone soon found out what was going on in the tent, and there was no one in the tent except Halle, who was lying on wool felt, and a slave girl, except for several wine jars and a pile of lamb and beef.
Stone took three steps and two steps with a sharp knife in his hand, and walked quickly to the wool felt where Haller was lying, and pressed the sharp blade of the knife against Haller's throat.
At this time, the cold wind poured in from the gap in the felt tent, and there was a "whine" sound. The cold wind caused the slave girl sleeping next to Haller to wake up suddenly, and when she opened her eyes in a daze, she suddenly found a sharp knife shining with a terrible light in front of her.
"Ahh The slave girl was frightened and immediately let out a scream.
"Poof!" Seeing this, the stone didn't blink his eyes, and with a "poof" sound, he swung his knife and cut the throat of the slave girl.
The screams of the slave girl ceased as if the sharp knife sliced her throat like a tofu brain, and blood splattered onto the stone's face, as well as Halle's bare chest, neck, and shiny head.
"Huh? You... You... Who is it? What do you want? Haller had just woken up from his dream, and when he opened his eyes and saw the stone with a bloody face and a hideous face, he was immediately frightened and asked the stone in a trembling voice.
"I am the son of Jerod Dashi, the son of Jerod Chongguang!" The stone pointed the tip of his knife at Halle's throat, wiped the blood from his face, and said with a cruel smile, "Today I have come to Hareda to get my things back." ”
"Take ... Return... What the? Haller asked tremblingly, not daring to move, glancing at the door of the felt tent.
Haller was five big and three thick, much more burly than a stone, and if he could fight with the stone on a normal day, he might be able to take the sharp knife from the stone and subdue the stone.
But at this time Haller did not have a wisp of his body...
People often feel the most timid at this time, and they dare not resist at all.
At the same time, the cold, sharp knife with the blood of a slave girl resting on his throat made Haller dare not move for half a minute.
"I'd like to see if your people are fast, or if the knife in my hand is fast?" The stone didn't answer, but glanced at the Halle guard, who was poking his head into the tent, and said after tightening the sharp knife under his hand.
By this time, Halle's men had already woken up from the movement in the tent, and they took their blades and tried to rush into the tent.
"You ... Get out of here ... Haller felt a stabbing pain in his throat, and the cold blade seemed to freeze Haller's body, and Haller was so frightened that he had to drink his men out of the tent.
"So you... You are Brother Stone... Haller then trembled and said, "What do you want?" I'll give you whatever you want, I'll let her go of your mother, Brother Shi, you and I are under the same account, you can... But don't kill me... ”
Haller used to be a brave Khitan general, fearless on the battlefield, and he was brave, so Haller also made military achievements and obtained official positions. But this was in the past, and now Halle has a large pasture, a large number of cattle, sheep and horses, and a large number of slaves, and life is very comfortable, so that Haller at this time has to spare his life more than ever, he is already as timid as a mouse, and he is no longer as brave as he used to be.
The barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes, and the stone is now nothing, so he is not afraid to fight with Halle.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you today." When Stone saw that Halle's men had withdrawn from the tent, he put away his sword and stood in front of Halle, and said with a smile: "Today I am just getting my own things back." ”
"What do you want? How about I give you ten fat sheep, ten bullocks, and ten healthy horses? How about your mother, how about sending someone to send her back to your tent later? Oh, by the way, how about I send you two more Han slaves? When Haller saw the stone standing with his sword in place, he felt relieved, and said to the stone.
What Haller promised to give to the stone was far more than Haller had taken from the stone's house, almost ten times more.
At this critical moment, it is better to save his life first, Haller secretly said in his heart, at this time, the stone eyes did not blink, and he stabbed the female slave on the spot, and the blood was splashed on the spot, which has proved that the stone is a ruthless person, so the hero does not suffer the immediate loss, and it is not too late to settle accounts with him later.
"Halda stabbed you wrong, don't do anything like this." Stone laughed when he heard this.
"And what do you want?" Haller was amazed.
The livestock and female slaves sent by Halle, in exchange for ordinary grassland herdsmen, have long been ecstatic, and ordinary poor herdsmen can get this, and they can instantly become well-off from poverty, and when the stone faced this, he refused without hesitation, which made Haller extremely surprised.
"Halda Thorn, didn't you invite my mother back to your tent? Then you marry her. The stone groaned for a moment before speaking to Halle.
"Wh... What the...? Haller couldn't believe his ears when he heard this, and looked at the stone in a daze.
The grassland population is sparse, and women are particularly precious, so grassland women do not have the concept of Han women from the beginning, keeping festivals for husbands, chastity archways, etc., generally remarrying after the death of the husband, and regard it as a common thing, and even the death of the brother and the brother, the death of the father and the son, the death of the grandson to marry... It is possible that Zhaojun, the king of the Han Dynasty, married three generations of Xiongnu ancestors and grandchildren, and gave birth to heirs for them.
Haller was not surprised that the prairie woman remarried, but Haller was surprised that the matter was actually raised by the son of the remarried person, and he still forced himself with a knife... Standby station
What is his purpose? Haller was puzzled by this.
Although Haller's wife has died, he is not short of women, and there are many female slaves under his tent, so why marry a half-old at this time? Although this woman still has a bit of a posture.
"What if I don't agree?" At this time, Haller was more and more relieved, since the stone had made this request, then his life must be worry-free, so Haller pushed away the body of the slave girl, sat up, and asked slowly while putting on his clothes.
"You can watch the sheep in the pen for one day, two days, three days, but you can't watch the sheep for four days or five days, unless you can kill all the wolves, otherwise the sheep will be eaten by the wolves." Hearing this, the stone smiled and said, "What do you think of the Halda stabbing dry?" ”
Haller was silent and looked at the stone for a long time.
Yelu Dashi is a broken Khitan royal family, but the broken royal family is also a royal family, and if he is a royal family, he will be protected, so if others want to move him, they have to weigh it.
Of course, Halle could settle the score and kill Jerodashi, but if Halle did this, it would bring him endless trouble.
If Halle disagrees with Jerodashi's request, but keeps such a little wolf cub around him, then Haller will be on the lookout at all times.
"That's it, that's it, I'll marry your mother, but... Halle thought for a long time, and finally nodded.
Isn't it just marrying a family? Marrying his mother and throwing her aside is, how should he enjoy himself or how he should enjoy himself, Haller said secretly in his heart.
This is also the best way to deal with this matter at present.
"Father-in-law, please bow down to the child!" The stone was a clever man, and he could not understand what Haller meant, so he fell down on one knee and bowed his head.
Stone's move can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Stone is destined to travel far away and will not be trapped on the grassland, and at this time he entrusted his mother to Halle, so that Mother Stone has a place to settle and can continue to live, and solves his own worries.
"Haha, hurry up." Haller hurriedly picked up the stone and said happily: "Come on, prepare some wine and meat, my father and son will not get drunk and return today!" ”
The Khitans are a people on horseback, advocating martial arts and warriors, while the stone is young and more ruthless, which makes Halle have some heart to accept the stone for his own use.
At the same time, Halle had many women, but no one gave him a son, and at this time he had an eldest son out of thin air, and his heart was somewhat happy.
So the two of them abandoned their previous suspicions and talked about wine...
。。。。。。。。
Ten days later
"Stone, what are you doing?" On this day, Gon saw that the stone was fiddling with some wooden planks, so he asked curiously.
"I'm going to make a bookcase, Gun'er, do you know what a Han bookbox looks like?" The stone took two planks and said.
"How do I know? I do not know. Gon'er shook her head and said, "But what does the stone want a bookbox?" There's only a book at home. ”
At present, there is no other Chinese book in Shishi's hand except for a dilapidated Analects, so it is impossible for Gon Er to understand what it means to do a bookcase.
"Just because there are no books now doesn't mean that there will be no books in the future." Shi picked up two wooden planks and said, "I have heard people say that Sinology is broad and profound, and books are like a sea, so we need to make some preparations." Don't you Han people have a saying? Be prepared and unprepared. ”
"What are you going to do to prepare for the stone?" Gon was amazed.
"Go to Beijing!" Hearing this, Shi Yan looked up in the direction of Shangjing and said.
As the stone spoke, a look of yearning appeared on his face.
So a few days later
Stone carried a bookcase on his back and went on the road with Gun'er to Shangjing.
A Khitan man carries a bookcase on his back, just like a Han scholar, which makes passers-by look sideways.
