Chapter 218: Sacrifice Zhang Xiaowu (2)
Previously, Zhang Xiaowu, Su Yu, Ruan Qingwen, and Li Yuan planned a strategy to divide the troops into four routes, Su Yu went to the Wuhuan camp, he came to the Jin Ya military camp, and Guan Xiang infiltrated Jincheng under the protection of everyone. Zhang Xiaowu was responsible for persuading the Beiyi people to withdraw their troops, and once the Beiyi people moved, the Beiyi people would definitely find an opportunity to withdraw their troops, while Li Yuan's cavalry had been harassing the Beiyi people in disguise; Su Yu then assured Wuhuan that Shenghan would divide the Tartar Steppe with Wuhuan, of which Mucheng would be used as a strategic buffer, and the fat and rich Crowjin granary would be handed over to Wuhuan; On the other side, Guan Xiang informed the defenders in Jincheng of the domestic news of Shenghan and all their recent strategies, telling them to hold on.
Zhang Xiaowu didn't know if anyone else could succeed, but it seemed that he had failed, and he sighed, this man was really unreasonable, and he had met a savage with all his skills. His stomach rumbled, Zhang Xiaowu touched his belly, he was really cold and hungry, he shouldn't be used as food by the people of the Spirits...... He raised his nose and smelled a scent, it was the Tattar people preparing to eat.
The people are a fishing and hunting people, and their recipes also have some vegetables and grains, Bai Hao once said that the grain of the fish is a kind of thing called chestnuts. When grilling meat, bury the chestnuts under the fire, and after eating the meat and drinking the wine, dig out the chestnuts from the fire, and open the chestnut shells to eat the sweet chestnut meat.
"But we still prefer meat to chestnut meat." Bai Hao once said.
"Do you have enough meat?"
"Not enough, so the best meat is given to the strongest warriors, and the rest is given to women and children."
"Where's the old man?"
"When they can't help the tribe, they return to the forest, to the arms of the forest gods."
"That's expelling the tribe and fending for itself, is this too cruel?"
Bai Hao said helplessly: "This has always been the case in the history of the Miscellaneous, even the King of Khan is no exception, the Tartar tribe cannot feed the useless. ”
"That's with her, boom!" A group of soldiers came over, opened the cage, interrupted Zhang Xiaowu's memories, dragged him out, and untied his rope.
Zhang Xiaowu was quite surprised when he saw them untie their ropes, and thought they were going to let go of themselves, but the eight soldiers buckled his body respectively, and Zhang Xiaowu was actually lifted up by them.
"Don't be so polite, I can go by myself." Zhang Xiaowu shouted with a wry smile, "You guys are too polite, too polite!" ”
The soldiers are not tall, their height is only up to Zhang Xiaowu's neck, and his height is eight feet, with a modern size of 1.85 meters, the general height of the soldiers is between 1.65 and 1.7 meters, which may be related to the recipe of the Yan people. However, they were stout, and they all looked like water tanks, and they were so powerful that the eight men carried him for a long distance without any effort.
"No, are you going to treat me as a guest, or are you going to put me to death?" Zhang Xiaowu shouted, but the surrounding people couldn't understand his words, and more and more people came out of the tent and followed behind the eight people. Zhang Xiaowu secretly felt bad, if he was treated as a distinguished guest, there would be too many people involved.
"You don't need so many people to see me, do you?" Of course, Zhang Xiaowu didn't know that he was about to sacrifice to the heavens, and the people of the Yan Tatar came to worship the gods.
A group of men carried him to a large place, where thousands of black arrowmen stood around. He was carried to the center and tied to a pillar. He noticed five horses and five long ropes around him, and immediately realized that he was about to see the most famous capital punishment in history—the dismemberment of five horses.
Zhang Xiaowu's face was desperate after seeing the rope, and he finally regretted it in his heart, he couldn't help but shout: "I'm the worst traverser in history, the traverser is either a Tang brick or a landlord emperor, I'm a child of an ordinary family, and now I'm going to end up with five horses and corpses - I'm actually the worst death!" Hahahaha...... Zhang Xiaowu, let you be smart, make you self-righteous, let you be sentimental, let you be self-immeasurable, let you be pretentious, you can ask for more blessings, who let you have nothing to do! ”
The guards around him looked at him suspiciously, and said in their hearts that this person should have been scared stupid, and the two sides did not understand the language.
Zhang Xiaowu knew that it was useless to plead for mercy, he just wanted to die quickly, don't tear off his arms and legs and then he can't die for a while, it would be too torturous. He also finally understood why Tang Seng chattered endlessly in "Journey to the West", because people either wanted to talk to people more before they died, or they collapsed directly. And Zhang Xiaowu is definitely the same as Tang Seng, hoping that there will be enough people to communicate with him before he dies, and even he can leave his last words, telling the brothers in Mucheng how to survive.
"Xiao Kai is a good deputy, although he has no pioneering ability, but he has the talent to defend the city, I hope that the brothers will have a good future with Xiao Kai in the future." Zhang Xiaowu said in pieces, he turned his head to look at the guard on the left, and asked, "Brother, do you know what a mobile phone is?" Do you know what an airplane is? Have you ever driven a car? Have you ever been on a train? Did you jump past Dee? Have you ever watched the America's Top Model Contest? ”
The guards on the left side quietly moved some positions in the distance, and said that this Han man who was going to die was afraid that he was crazy.
Zhang Xiaowu's special guard on the right side of the Shen Yan said, "Have you crossed it?" What's your mother's last name? Do you know about SARS? Do you know about the new coronavirus? Eh, let me tell you, people have to toss themselves when they live, and only by tossing themselves can they feel that their lives are meaningful. Look at me, I'm a person who likes to toss, I tossed from the earth to this world, and from a soldier in Tucheng to the current garrison, I only took two years, didn't I toss it? Actually, I'm quite lucky, except to meet you. It's really fucking that the show is unreasonable when it meets the soldiers, and you don't give me a chance to communicate at all......"
Suddenly, a group of women in black feathered cloaks ran out, their bare feet on the ground half mud and half snow, their bells tinkling, and at the same time dancing in an unknown dance, acting as if they were crazy. Zhang Xiaowu looked at his teeth, these barefoot women stepped on the cold ground, didn't they freeze their feet?
After these crazy women danced, another group of black-clothed women came out with an old woman holding a long staff, and beside her was a young girl dressed in white, carefully supporting the old woman. At this time, all the people immediately knelt down, raised their hands high, and reverently chanted: "Bao Zu Ku - Bao Zu Ku - Bao Zu Ku -"
"Chartered wife?" Zhang Xiaowu joked, "Being able to die in a chartered wife can be regarded as an unswerving trip." ”
