From time to time, people got into other people's tents, took out gold and silver, knives and guns, iron pots, salt and other things, and even rushed into other people's tents, carried other people's girls, and ran out.

This is the day of stealing, it is simply the day of robbery!

This almost barbaric custom, which was still preserved in the Liao State, was not quite understood by Kou Ji.

A few Liao people looked at Kou Ji's tent with bright eyes, but the eight guards guarding the door discouraged them.

The Song people were wealthy, which was a well-known thing in the Liao State.

In the eyes of the Liao people, stealing a wave of Song people's tents is far more cost-effective than them stealing more than a dozen Liao people's tents.

But Kou Ji obviously didn't let go of the tent to let them steal, so they could only watch Kou Ji's tent for a while.

By the light of the bonfire, Kou Ji tidied up his clothes and walked into the cheering crowd in front of the bonfire.

The addition of Kou Ji, an outlier, made the jubilant Liao people quiet, and after a short silence, the Liao people continued to dance and sing around the bonfire.

Someone reached out and invited Koji to join in the dance.

There were also people who looked at Kou Ji with blazing eyes, as if they wanted to see through the purpose of Kou Ji joining them.

Kou Ji agreed to the invitation of the Liao people with a bright smile and danced with them.

The Liao people's dance around the bonfire is not complicated, Kou Ji only followed them around twice, and he had already learned it, and then he accompanied the Liao people to pick a good one.

It wasn't until a young man from the Liao Kingdom named Agu Pinch invited Kou Ji to drink and eat meat with him that Kou Ji stopped and followed him to the woolen blanket by the bonfire and sat down.

Agu pinched out a jar of spirits and two roast lamb shanks and invited Kou Ji to eat and drink together.

Kou Ji looked at the two roast leg of lamb, a little at a loss.

Agu pinched open his mouth surrounded by whiskers, laughed a few times, and took a knife from his bosom and handed it to Kou Ji.

It was a silver-handled knife, and the hilt was engraved with words that the two Kou Ji looked very familiar with.

That's the Goryeo script.

I think this knife was captured by Agu when he conquered Goryeo.

Agu pinched the knife he was holding, and there were also two words on it, looking at the style of the handle, it was a style that only existed in the Tang Dynasty.

Seeing Kou Ji staring at the knife in his hand, Agu pinched it and handed it to Kou Ji with some reluctance, "If you like it, you can use it first, but I can't give it to you." ”

Kou Ji took the knife from Agu's hand, and measured it carefully, the words on it were a little blurry, Kou Ji couldn't see clearly, he held the knife and asked, "It's precious?" ”

Agu nodded seriously and said, "This was rewarded by the first emperor when my father led the horse for the first emperor." ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly, "That's really precious. ”

Hearing this, Agu raised his head arrogantly and said, "Of course, this is my most precious thing. ”

After saying this, Agu pinched that Kou Ji was still groping for the knife, so he said seriously: "If you really like it, wait for me to kill a few more enemies on the battlefield, and use their heads to change them for you from Your Majesty's hands." I heard that His Majesty still has three identical handles in his hand.

This knife was obtained by my father, not me, and cannot be given to you. ”

Kou Ji raised the knife in his hand and laughed in a low voice: "With your heart, I am already very happy." But I won't covet your knife, because I can make a better one. ”

Hearing this, Agu was a little surprised, "Can you make a better knife than this knife?" ”

Kou Ji nodded earnestly.

Agu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly chased after Kou Ji and asked, "Can you also build a long knife?" ”

Kou Ji chuckled in a low voice: "Naturally, ......"

Agu grinned, "Tomorrow...... No, no, no, the day after tomorrow, can I go to you. ”

He had wanted to find Kou Ji tomorrow.

However, tomorrow the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will go out hunting, and he will accompany him, so he can only change the time to the day after tomorrow.

"Of course you can ......"

"Great."

“……”

I learned that Kou Ji can make knives, and he is still a good knife.

Agu pinched even more enthusiastically.

He also called his friends and introduced him to Koji.

As for whether Kou Ji would make a knife, Agu Pinched had no doubts at all.

As a Liao person, a traditional Liao person, he is used to hearing people tell the truth, and he is also used to telling the truth, so every word Kou Ji says, he takes it as the truth.

Under the introduction of Agu Pinch, more and more Liao people knew that Kou Ji could make knives and make good knives.

They climbed up to Kou Ji and invited him to drink and eat meat together.

The Liao people are very obsessed with knives.

Even though they have a collection of countless good knives at home, they still want to get more.

In their hearts, the knife is a source of their sense of security.

So Kou Ji, a person who can make good knives, has naturally become the object of their pursuit.

Kou Ji stayed with them until late at night, and then walked drunkenly to his tent.

When he reached the door of the tent, he fell to the ground.

He drank a little too much.

The guards guarding the door of the tent were just about to go up and help him up, when a figure who had been silently paying attention to Kou Ji quietly appeared in front of Kou Ji, helped him up, and helped him into the tent.

After placing Kou Ji.

She stared at Koji's face with a complicated expression.

She didn't have a love or hate for Kou Ji, just a little bit of guilt.

Calculating Kou Ji was not her intention, but after calculating Kou Ji, she still felt guilty in her heart.

"I'm sorry ......"

She helped Kou Ji cover the quilt, whispered a word, and quietly left the tent.

Following.

Early morning.

Kou Ji slowly woke up in a noise, rubbed his head, Kou Ji opened the tent and looked at it, and saw Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu wearing a military uniform, with thousands of men and horses, from Kou Ji's tent.

It's going hunting.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu asked someone to bring him a message yesterday and wanted to invite him to hunt together today.

But no one was sent to call him today.

It seems that he has forgotten about him, and also forgotten the agreement to invite him to hunt with him.

Koji didn't care.

The emperor is like this, when he wants you to use you, he will spoil you on the tip of his heart; I don't want you to look at you when you don't need you.

After washing up, Kou Ji simply ate something and began to wander around the camp.

With his status as a foreign envoy, he wandered around the camp, but not many people embarrassed him.

Wandering around the camp for a day.

Kou Ji carefully understood the weapons used by the Liao people.

Believe in tomorrow.

Agu Jian will bring a large number of people to him to build swords, guns, swords, halberds, he needs to have a good understanding of the Liao people's habits of using weapons, and then create a blade that can satisfy the Liao people.

What he did for what he did was known only to him.

Time flickered, and it was evening.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu led his soldiers and horses back with a full load.

All kinds of mountain fowl and wild beasts were pulled into the camp one by one.

I heard that someone hunted a black bear and was rewarded by the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

After hearing the news, Kou Ji was eager to meet this bear hunter.

But he knew that Emperor Yelu Longxu of Liao didn't want to see him, so he didn't go up to join in the fun.

After nightfall, the campfire was lit again.

The Liao people roasted the prey they had caught during the day, and once again celebrated with singing and dancing.

But Koji stayed in the tent and didn't go out.

"Who?"

"I'm looking for Brother Koji."

“……”

Koji didn't want to go out, but someone came to the door.

Koji heard a familiar voice and slowly stepped out of the tent.

Then he saw Agu holding a bearskin, looking at him with a warm smile on his face.

Kou Ji said unexpectedly: "You are the one who hunted a black bear?" ”

Agu smiled brightly, and stuffed the bear skin he had just pulled off in his hand, as well as a small knife, into Kou Ji's hand.

"Here you go!"

Kou Ji was holding the bear skin and knife, slightly stunned.

Agu pinched and said with a bright smile: "Today I hunted a bear and received a reward from Your Majesty, and I asked Your Majesty for a small knife for you." ”

Kou Ji held the bear skin and knife tightly, and said seriously: "That bear, you should dedicate it to His Majesty the Emperor of Liao, right?" What about this bearskin? ”

Agu sneered: "When I presented the black bear to His Majesty, I told His Majesty that the bear skin was going to be given to you. ”

Koji hugged the bearskin, a little speechless.

This kind of practice, in the Great Song Dynasty, will definitely be classified as uninteresting, and what will eventually fall on him is not only suppressed, but also suppressed.

In the Liao Kingdom, although it is not so serious, it will also be disliked by the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

Is Agu stupid?

Agu is not stupid.

When Koji talked to him last night, he knew that he was not a fool, nor was he a reckless man.

He knew that this move would dislike Emperor Yelu Longxu of Liao, but he did it anyway.

This heart-to-heart way of making friends made Kou Ji a little uncomfortable.

Agu pinched that Kou Ji was holding the bear skin and didn't speak, so he smiled and said, "We're brothers now, right?" ”

Kou Ji nodded stiffly.

Agu pinched and laughed, he stepped forward, patted Kou Ji on the shoulder and said, "When you make a good knife in the future, I can take it out and show off to the clansmen, this is the knife made by my Agu pinch's brother."

No one else's knife can compare. ”

Kou Ji smiled at the same time, he smelled the faint smell of blood on Agu Pinch's body, and frowned, "Are you injured?" ”

Agu nodded seriously and said, "When I was hunting a bear during the day, I was scratched by it. ”

Kou Ji hesitated for a moment and said, "Follow me to the tent, and I'll help you take a look." ”

Agu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you still know medicine?" ”

Koji nodded.

Agu pinched his hand and said, "I didn't expect you to still use medicine, but you don't have to heal me." By the time I came, I had already consulted the witch doctor of the clan. ”

The corners of Kou Ji's mouth twitched.

Eighty percent of the doctors with 'witches' are some gods and ghosts, which not only cannot help people heal diseases, but may also kill them.

"I'd better show you this."

After saying this, without waiting for Agu to refuse, he pulled Agu into the tent.

Koji threw down the bearskin and knife, and told Agu to undress.

Agu knew that Kou Ji was caring about him, and he also knew that Kou Ji planned to help him, so he didn't shirk and took off his coat.

Koji saw a deep paw print on his back.

There was a layer of grass ash sprinkled on it, and traces of blood mixed with grass ash kept oozing out.

Using grass ash as medicine is probably the method of witch doctors.

Kou Ji asked Agu to sit in the tent, he went out of the tent, and ordered the guards outside the tent to fetch a jar of pear blossoms and a few bottles of wound medicine.

After waiting for the things brought by the guards, he carefully helped Agu pinch and clean the wound and began to apply the medicine.

Agu seems to be used to being tossed with grass ash, and he is a little unaccustomed to Kou Ji cleaning his wounds with wine and dressing his wounds with gold sore medicine.

The medicine is finished.

Kou Ji chatted with Agu for a while, and the two of them drank the pear blossoms left over from the wound.

Then, Agu pinched his chest and left.

Kou Ji kept sending Agu to the tent, looked at Agu Pinch's back, and sighed, "Don't be too nice to me." It's too good for me, and when I cheat you, it's easy to feel guilty. ”

After getting to know Agu Pinch, Kou Ji had a new understanding of the Liao people.

The nobles of the Liao State are undoubtedly treacherous and ruthless, and the best of them is the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

The people of Liao are simple, and the simplicity makes Kou Ji have nothing to say.

Back in the tent.

Kou Ji put away the bearskin and knife, lay down on the bed, and quietly waited for the next day to come.

The night flies.

Following.

In the wee hours of the morning.

Agu pinched and arrived.

He took Koji to a makeshift blacksmith's workshop in the camp.

The owner of the workshop was a small official of the Liao Kingdom, and he had no objection to Kou Ji, Agu Chuan and others borrowing the blacksmith workshop.

After just reminding me of some precautions, I left.

When the blacksmith's workshop had left, Agu's brothers came out from all directions.

Carrying broken iron knives, iron pots, and iron helmets, they found Kou Ji.

In Liao, to build things, you need to bring your own iron materials.

Although they are all members of the Leather Chamber Army, in addition to the ordnance that the Leather Room Army normally distributes, they need to bring their own iron materials to build other weapons.

It's not that the current Liao country lacks iron.

Under the support of the Great Song Dynasty for many years, the Liao State is not short of iron now.

Build your own things and bring your own iron materials, which is a habit developed when there was a shortage of iron in the earliest days of the Liao Kingdom.

Kou Ji briefly checked the things in the workshop and found that the things he wanted to use were all in the workshop.

After all, it is a blacksmith workshop of the Liao army, not a civilian workshop, so everything they should be equipped with is fully equipped.

Some of the special tools that Koji needs can also be crafted from what is available in the workshop.

After Kou Ji got into the blacksmith's workshop, he never came out.

Except for Agu Pinch, the rest of the Liao people left after putting down the iron material.

Agu pinched and stayed in the workshop to give Kou Ji a hand.

Kou Ji spends his whole day making tools in the workshop.

I also went out to get some horse urine on the way.

It wasn't until late in the evening that Koji began to forge iron.
