There was no cotton cultivation in Bactria itself, and it was all spread to Bactria from the Western Regions.

The indigenous people of the Western Regions countries cultivated cotton, then spun and weaved cloth, and then sent it to the interior of the Xia Dynasty. Because it was expensive, the texture was not as smooth as silk, and it was much more expensive than linen, so cotton was still a very niche luxury at this time.

Women with a slight status like to wear clothes woven of silk and cotton, and they can probably only go to the ready-to-wear store to ask.

Then Gu Bei took out some common sense in the 21st century and said many methods and tricks for the maintenance of pregnant women in later generations, which caused Bai Luoshi, the expectant mother, to marvel again and again, and made Gu Bei also feel a great sense of satisfaction.

Bai Luoshi was happy to hear it, changed the topic, and then asked about the maintenance of the pregnant woman's figure.

What? Do you really regard us as the "father of 100,000 whys"?

Daxia women are born with a love for beauty, and Bai Luoshi, as the iconic "goddess" of Ying Tianfu, is no exception.

It is human nature to love beauty, and women are those who please themselves!

Women are pregnant, but they are prone to gain weight and lose shape. In this regard, Bai Luoshi, who is about to become a mother, is also very distressed, and she has asked her mother a lot.

Mrs. Qin was speechless when she asked, she was just a traditional woman, how could she understand this, she couldn't give any professional answers, so she could only persuade her with good words.

Probably, it's good to have a baby, and patience will pass...... Answers like that.

The lady wants to maintain a good figure, which is not difficult for him, and after thinking for a while, "Lady, in fact, you can try to practice yoga, which is very effective for maintaining your figure." ”

"Yoga? Isn't that the Dharma of Buddhism? Cheng Xiaoyi asked in surprise when she heard this.

So they know? When Gu Bei asked, he realized that yoga had already existed.

Yoga first appeared in the Donghua Dynasty and was mainly used as a Buddhist practice. It means "consistency", "union".

However, yoga at this time is very different from yoga in the 21st century.

Ancient yoga was mainly used for meditation, the so-called repair of the soul, while modern yoga is used to exercise the body.

Modern yoga, through long-term exercise, can regulate the body's muscles, bones and secretion system to the healthiest state. In order to maintain her figure, Gu Bei's mother specialized in learning yoga exercise methods, and has always insisted on practicing every day.

Whether practicing yoga will keep you in good shape, Gu Bei doesn't know, but at least you can strengthen your body!

Regarding Cheng Xiaoyi's question, Gu Bei explained with a smile the difference between yoga and Buddhist yoga he said.

Hearing that practicing yoga can maintain a figure and make people younger, the eyes of both women lit up. Women have a love of beauty, no matter what dynasty, this is true.

"Brother-in-law, I don't know if you can teach me yoga as well?" Cheng Xiaoyi was full of expectations and asked.

For Cheng Xiaoyi's request, Gu Beizi would not refuse, one sheep is also driven, and two are also driven......

What's more, teaching two girls to practice yoga can ...... Hehe, "When practicing yoga, you can't wear too many clothes, otherwise it will affect your physical activity." ”

The two women were stunned, hearing that they couldn't wear more clothes, a blush suddenly floated at the root of their ears, and Bai Luoshi looked at Gu Bei with suspicious eyes.

This bastard can't be playing some bad idea, is he?

Facing the lady's eyes examining the prisoner, Gu Beiyi felt a sense of emptiness, coughed, and preemptively explained: "Lady, yoga is no better than other movements, and the clothes should be loose and light, so that you can better exert the flexibility of the body." ”

"Alright then!" Bai Luoshi saw that Xiaoyi had no opinion, so she agreed.

What will Cheng Xiaoyi have to say, she can't wait to get along with her brother-in-law more, in her heart, she will be her brother-in-law's person sooner or later, and if she doesn't show her body, who will show it.

Ahem, of course...... I still can't show it to my brother-in-law...... My mother said that you can't let a man see her body easily......

In a ventilated, quiet, and spacious room, Gu Bei asked the maid to bring three soft mats, which were spread with towels to serve as yoga mats.

To practice yoga, you must use a yoga mat, one is to prevent slip and protect the safety of the exerciser, and the other is to protect the knees and spine.

Gu Bei had already changed into a samurai suit, and as for Bai Luoshi, the two girls also changed into a style with narrow sleeves and tight body, and their clothes and pants were separated.

After letting the maid retreat, Gu Bei began to teach Luo Shi and Xiaoyi the method of yoga exercise.

An hour later, Gu Bei walked out with two girls with a slightly red face with the smell of sweat.

"Husband, your yoga is really magical, I feel a lot more relaxed after exercising." Bai Luoshi said with her hand stroking her slightly bulging lower abdomen.

"That's true, my brother-in-law's yoga is really effective, and Xiaoyi also feels a lot more energetic!" Saying that, Cheng Xiaoyi grimaced at Gu Bei.

"Lady, Xiaoyi, this yoga requires long-term exercise, and today is just the beginning. To be effective, you must practice daily. Gu Bei remembered the fragrant scene again, and his heart was crooked, it seems that he will come often in the future...... Teach the lady yoga!

"In the future, let Xiaoyi practice with me, I don't know if I am asking my husband!"

"Uh......"

Shouldn't you let your husband practice with you more? Isn't it faster to learn if you have a husband to teach you by hand?

Gu Bei wanted to say something, but saw Xiao Ran standing at the gate of the small courtyard with an anxious expression, and the face of 'Mount Tai collapsed in front and the color remained unchanged' at this time. Gu Bei chuckled in his heart, and had a bad premonition.

"Uncle, just now my brother reported that Zhang Changren had an accident!"

When Gu Bei came out, Xiao Ran didn't care about saluting, and simply recounted the matter.

Since Gu Bei planned to attack Chang Gang, not only did the people from the Five Military Mansions of the Bai Luoshi Sect control Zhang Changren's residence, but Xiao Ran also almost put all the people in the mansion on Zhang Changren. It can be said unceremoniously that even the thatched house he went to at any time of the day knows. But under this kind of strict surveillance, Zhang Changren was killed unknowingly.

Zhang Changren did not die in his residence, but in the Zaowang Temple in the lower reaches of the Qinhuai River.

How did Zhang Changren leave the house under heavy surveillance? Who killed him? And what reason did he go to the sparsely populated Zaowang Temple?

One question after another followed, but Gu Bei didn't panic, didn't he keep using Zhang Changren as bait, the fish had already bitten the hook, if he couldn't catch the fish, it was his Gu Bei's ability was not enough.

Leaving the White Mansion, Gu Bei and his party went straight to the Stove King Temple.

At a glance, a lonely land temple stands on the bank of the river, looking so vicissitudes.

Standing on the wet country road, looking at the land temple in the distance, Gu Bei's heart became more and more doubtful. Zaowang Temple is more than 200 zhang away from the path, what did Zhang Changren do when he walked so far to Zaowang Temple? Zhang Changren must have taken this country road, because there was no other road to go nearby except this road.

Gu Bei didn't rush to the Stove King Temple, and asked softly, "Where does this path lead?" ”

Xiao Randi grew up in Yingtian Mansion and was very familiar with Fucheng, "Uncle, walking along this path, there is a village where several families live who burn pottery. ”

"Are there any other villages?" Gu Bei asked with some confusion.

"From the Zaowang Temple to the west, there is only one village, and further west you can go out of the city."

"Hmm."

Nodding, Gu Bei didn't continue to ask, and followed Xiao Ran towards the Stove King Temple. The Baifu family general had already set up a control near the Land Temple, and when he saw Gu Bei and Xiao Ran, a family general walked up quickly and saluted, "Little Yang Teng has seen my uncle and the leader." ”

Xiao Ran nodded casually, and said with a somewhat serious expression: "Xiao Teng, the body was found by you and others, so it's up to you to explain the situation to your uncle in detail." ”

Yang Teng bowed his hand and said as he walked, "Uncle, last night, there was no special situation. Zhang Changren, as in the past, drank some wine with others and slept left and right with his son. It wasn't until this morning that the little one felt that something was wrong, and usually, Zhang Changren would get up early in the morning to practice martial arts. The little one wondered if the surname Zhang had drunk too much, and he got up a little late today, so he didn't think about it deeply. But I kept waiting, but I still didn't see any movement from Zhang Changren. The small one asked the dark line of the bribe to investigate, and found that Zhang Changren was not in the room at all, and the bedding on the bed was stacked neatly, which didn't look like someone had slept at all. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Teng showed a look of annoyance, "At this moment, the little one didn't care how the grinding got out of our sight, so he asked my brothers to search separately, but I didn't expect to find Zhang Changren's body in the Zaowang Temple." ”

When he approached the Zaowang Temple, he saw Zhang Changren lying on the ground in a distorted position, his eyes wide open, revealing some surprise, resentment and disappointment. There was only one wound, located in the chest, and I don't know what kind of sharp weapon stabbed it, and it was pierced directly from the front chest to the back of the back.

Although there are some messy traces on the ground, it can be seen that this is the trace of Zhang Changren's struggle before his death, not the trace of fighting with others.

Gu Bei carefully observed the furnishings of the Stove King Temple and asked, "The scene has always been like this, no one has touched it?" ”

"Since the body was found, the little one has let the brothers guard it, and they don't dare to move easily." Yang Teng replied very simply.

The furnishings of the Zaowang Temple are very ordinary, a piece of incense case, it can be seen from the incense ashes piled up on the case, no one has come to worship for a long time. Squatting on the ground and carefully observing Zhang Changren's body, he soon noticed something strange.

Zhang Changren was dressed in a gray coarse linen coat with patches on the cuffs, a pair of worn shoes on his feet, and his hair was hastily tied up with a piece of hemp rope.

Xiao Ran also saw something strange, put down the wine jug and bent over and wondered: "It's really a strange thing, Zhang Changren is also the leader of a gang, not to mention that he must be dressed in fine clothes, but he is also a particular person on weekdays." Why is he wearing tattered clothes now, if he doesn't recognize Zhang Changren, he still thinks he is an ordinary farmer. ”

Gu Bei nodded lightly, pointed to the wound on his chest and said, "Old Xiao, look at this wound, it can be described as accurate and ruthless, full of strength, and it is still stabbed from the front." Zhang Changren is a person who has been practicing martial arts for a long time, and no matter how bad his kung fu is, it is impossible not to react at all. There is only one answer, the person who started it must be an acquaintance. ”

Standing up, he came to the door of the Zaowang Temple and looked at the blurred path, and continued, "Judging from Zhang Changren's dress, it is obvious that he doesn't want others to recognize him. From the path to the Zaowang Temple, it takes more than 200 zhang to walk, if it is a stranger, the cautious Zhang Changren will definitely not follow to the Zaowang Temple. ”

"What my uncle said is reasonable, but is there another possibility, if Zhang Changren makes an appointment with others to meet at the Zaowang Temple, there is no need for others to lead him to the Zaowang Temple." Xiao Ran picked up the wine jug and took a sip, smashing his mouth. Gu Bei shook his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "What Lao Xiao said is not unreasonable, but he ignores a problem. Judging from Yang Teng's understanding, Zhang Changren did not spend the night at the residence, which means that Zhang Changren had already left the mansion. ”

"This ......" Xiao Ran scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Uncle, what do you say we should do next?" ”

Gu Bei frowned, turned around and let go of Zhang Changren's body, ripped open his clothes, and carefully observed the wound. The wound on the chest is a kind of round, as thick as a little thumb, and the wound on the back is much thinner, judging from the wound marks, the murder weapon is neither a sword nor a sword, "Old Xiao, come and take a look, what kind of ice blade is this?" ”

Xiao Ran stared at the wound for a while, shook the wine jug, and muttered: "Judging from a certain experience, only half a cone pierced this wound was caused. However, there are very few people who use the awl to stab, so it's not surprising that my uncle can't see it."

Cone thorns? Gu Bei shook his head a little helplessly, although he speculated on the murder weapon, it seemed to be useless for the time being, he stood up and sighed long, "It seems that this Stove King Temple can't find anything, we now have to find out why Zhang Changren quietly left the residence in the middle of the night, and why is he dressed like this?" As long as you find out what Zhang Changren did after leaving the residence, then everything will be clear. ”

Just wanted to leave, I saw a copper buckle on the ground, which was pressed by the corpse before, but I didn't find this copper buckle.

Gu Bei picked up the copper buckle, observed it a little, and then put the copper buckle away.

Instructed the family general to send the body to the government office, Gu Bei took Xiao Ran and others to walk west along the country road, walked for about a quarter of an hour, and finally came to the small village that Xiao Ran said.

It is a small village with a fenced courtyard and a lot of fired pottery in the courtyard. As Xiao Ran said, the population of the village is very small, there are only a few families, and it is not very troublesome to walk over one by one.

Apparently there were very few people in the small village, and a group of grim-faced and sturdy men appeared, which frightened these people a lot.

When he came to the gate of a courtyard, before he opened his mouth, the strong man who was kneading pottery in the courtyard got up and greeted him, and said with some vigilance: "How many masters, who are you?" ”

It's no wonder that strong men are cautious, a village with a few families, there is no one in the world on weekdays, and today a group of big men suddenly came, and all of them were cold and vicious.

Seeing the strong man's expression, Gu Bei showed a gentle smile and said, "This eldest brother, I came here today just to ask you about something." ”

After listening to Gu Bei's explanation, the strong man obviously relaxed a lot, and his face improved a lot, "Childe, you ask, but I know that I must answer truthfully." ”

Gu Bei approached the courtyard, picked up a clay pot casually, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "Big brother, is there such a person in your village?" He was of medium to thin stature, in his forties, with a mustache on his chin. ”

Seeing that Gu Bei was kind, the strong man hesitated for a moment before he nodded and said, "What Gongzi is looking for is Chang Ren, right?" His home is in the westernmost part of the village, but Brother Chang is running business outside on weekdays, so he is afraid that he will not be at home at this time. ”

"It's okay, it's okay if Chang Ren isn't there, it's just that there are some things to send to Chang Ren's house." Gu Bei didn't explain much, put down the clay pot, and led Xiao Ran towards the west, while the rest of the generals scattered to prevent any accidents.

It was an ordinary courtyard, where a woman wearing a flower cloth was fiddling with clay, and not far away, a boy of about five years old was squatting on the ground and teasing ants. The woman was twenty-six or seven, quite a little beautiful, and she couldn't help but be a little flustered when she saw two uninvited guests coming to the courtyard.

I have to say that Gu Bei's appearance is excellent, his appearance is handsome, and he exudes elegance and peace. The corners of her mouth curled up, and she smiled slightly, which made the flower cloth woman feel a lot more at ease. The woman looked at Gu Bei and the two, although she didn't know much, she could also see that she was dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes, and knew that Gu Bei's family background must be good.

Gu Bei hadn't opened his mouth to ask, but he saw that the woman's eyes were gradually covered with a layer of mist, he breathed a long sigh of relief, endured not crying, and knelt on his knees, "Chang Wang, I've seen Gu Gongzi." ”

Gu Bei was surprised for a while, "Do you know so-and-so?" ”

"I don't know ......" Chang Wang knelt straight, his eyes were red, he shook his head first and then shook his head, "I know, after my clumsy husband came home last night, he said a lot of things." Seeing Gu Gongzi and others coming, the slave family knew in their hearts that something must have happened to the clumsy husband. ”

"Mrs. Chang, I won't hide it from you, your husband was killed in the Stove King Temple. I came here today to find out something about you. Looking at the Chang Wang clan in front of him, and then at the boy playing in the distance, Gu Bei said slowly, "Looking at your appearance, you must know something, whether your husband is Changren or Zhang Changren, at least in terms of finding the murderer, our goal is the same." ”

I have to say that Gu Bei's words were very demagogic, and a few words provoked the desire for revenge in Chang Wang's heart.

Chang Wang slowly went limp, and then sat on the ground, "Slave...... The slave family did not dare to hide it, and the clumsy husband did hand over some things to the slave family before the accident, saying that those things could keep the slave's mother and son safe. Gu Gongzi, I just ask you not to hurt my child. ”

Chang Wang's family seemed weak, but when it came to his son, there was more firmness in his tone.

Gu Bei didn't intend to embarrass Chang Wang's mother and son, nodded and said, "Gu can guarantee that as long as those things can work, they will never harm your mother and son." ”

Standing up from the ground, Chang Wang's family entered the house tremblingly, Gu Bei was not afraid of her playing some tricks, the child was still outside? Does she dare to mess around?
