Chapter Seventy-Nine: Teeth bite people

Values are something that is formed after rules have been formulated in order to distinguish differences.

It is also the main cornerstone of laying the foundation of civilization and constituting a social system.

Barbarians, who have not yet entered civilization, do not care what their values are.

Just like those precious stones, silk, barefoot gold, and raw copper mines that were priceless in the Central Plains, can only be piled up in caves to decay and be bleak, without appreciation and no one to understand their value.

Because the values of this barren land are completely different from those of the Central Plains.

Those splendid silks are far less precious than the fur of a wild wolf, because they do not keep warm;

Those gold, copper, and silver mines are just some stones of good color, because they cannot be smelted;

Those beautiful and sparkling gemstones of various colors are not as good as the pebbles of the sea, because the paving will cut the leather boots.

These useless, but indeed visually stunning and beautiful materials have only one function in this land, which is to show the dignity of the monarch.

Because beauty and magnificence are gifts from the gods to tribal monarchs.

But Wang Xu himself is a 'god', if he can, he is willing to use this pile of things to exchange for food and clothing in the Central Plains.

These treasures are not so important in Wang Li's eyes, because there is no concept of money in his values, and his appreciation of these treasures is mainly to recall his life in Xianyang.

After all, in the wilderness, sleeping in the open is really too hard for him, a son-in-law, Wang Li is ready to move these treasures back and put them at home as a kind of psychological comfort.

"What are you looking at so fascinating? You envy the words of the savages, and you also understand them? Wang Li, who had been squatting on the side of 'Baoshan' for a long time, asked suspiciously.

"This is the deed of Yin Shang." Wang Xu put down the bamboo slip in his hand and picked up another volume.

The oracle bone inscription is the name given by later generations, and the deed is its original name.

"Oh? Lin Hu actually used the deed? Wang Li was surprised.

"Don't forget, this is the birthplace of Yin Shang." Wang Xu smiled, "Didn't you ask before, what is Lan Jia?" ”

"Yes." Wang Li took out an unpolished black gem the size of a fist, and grinded it on the ground with a happy face, wanting to grind it rounder.

"During the period of Emperor Wu Ding of Shang, Fang Guo Lan rebelled, Emperor Wu Ding drove his own expedition, quelled the rebellion, Lan surrendered, and the king Lan became a slave, and later conquered the Ba Fang, Qiang Fang, Tufang and other countries, each battle must be the first, brave and unparalleled, was promoted to the general by Wu Ding, selected good warriors from the slaves, formed an army, is the vanguard of the Yin Shang army, Lan Jiajun, assisted Wu Ding to pacify the Quartet did not have the prestige of 'stopping children's night crying' in many Fang countries." Wang Xu told the story

"During the period of Emperor Wuding, Yin Shang fought one after another, and the most critical battle was with the Indo-Europeans who moved eastward, the Great Witch Hao personally took command, and the Lan Jia army was the vanguard, fighting to the death and not retreating, and finally returned with a great victory over the Great Witch, but also because this battle was too tragic, the Great Witch died soon after the triumph, and the Lan Jia army also shed the last drop of blood, and the general Lan Jia was also seriously injured and died shortly after."

Wang Li blinked, "It sounds like a fierce general who knows how to repay his kindness, this is your sustenance to Zhai Qiu?" ”

Wang Xu smiled and changed the topic, "These bamboo slips are an unexpected joy, but I didn't expect this King Lin Hu to be a cultural person." ”

"How?" Wang Li raised his eyebrows and asked.

"These should be rubbings, there are records of the Lonely Bamboo Country, there are also the Endless Kingdom and some ancient ancient countries, the records are very miscellaneous and fragmentary, if you can collect them completely, maybe you can smooth out the history of the ancient country of Liaodong and Liaobei." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"What are you doing with that thing? A bunch of small barbarian nations. Wang Li's face was full of puzzlement.

"I don't understand it with a layman like you." Wang Xu glanced at the black gem in his hand.

"Then you said you would like to tell me about it!" Wang Li glared.

Just as Wang Xu was about to mock him again for his bad taste, they were interrupted by the sound of commotion outside.

"Got through?" Wang Li shouted outside.

"Dig what?" Mo Lian's cold voice came from outside the door.

"Why are you here?" Wang Xu looked at Mo Lian who walked in in surprise.

Mo Lian's hair was messy, the cloak covered by the armor still had leaves on it, and the armor also carried the moisture in the forest late at night.

"Why is the Emperor suddenly suspected again!" Mo Lian wrenched her little face, and her voice was a little empty.

"Sit down and rest." Wang Xu chuckled, pressed her to the soft chair, and stroked her broken hair wet with white sweat, "Didn't I let Mo Ding tell you?" ”

"The Emperor of Heaven is not in the land of the army, if he is here, there will be a witch to open the way to ward off evil spirits, how can you be so suspicious." Mo Lian gasped, her eyes wide.

"It's all over, I'm just going to come out for a walk." Wang Xu chuckled and patted her head, "Didn't you see an escort with an iron horse?" ”

"I can't even stop those bastards!" Mo Lian burst into a foul mouth in shame.

Wang Xu didn't frown, and glared at Wang Li, who was snickering, hatefully, "You don't teach her this nonsense in the future." ”

"She's self-taught, so what's wrong with me." Wang Li shrugged innocently, "But Mo Lian starry night whip, but the riding skills are exquisite." ”

"What did you promise me?" Mo Lian glared at Wang Li viciously, and had the intention of asking the teacher for sin.

Wang Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, "What is your two little secret?" ”

"It's nothing more than letting me watch you and not letting you get into danger." Wang Li pursed his lips, "I didn't break my promise, I will help you watch him every step of the way." ”

Mo Lian waited for her eyes to widen, puffing out her cheeks and preparing to spit on his face.

"Okay, I haven't talked about you yet." Wang Xu pierced Mo Lian's bun face, and said in a cold voice: "What if you are in danger or lost in the mountains and forests when you are in a starry night?" You also said that I was in danger, so you didn't do it yourself. ”

"How can I compare with the safety of the Emperor!" Mo Lianjiao exclaimed.

"I forgot what I told you last time." Wang Xu rolled her eyes and knocked on her sweaty head, "If you do it again next time, I will be grounded from you." ”

Mo Lian pursed her small mouth aggrievedly, and was about to cry with a look of wanting to cry, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of the silk piled up into a hill, and instantly changed her face and exclaimed, "Wow! That's a lot of silk. ”

"Hmph, I was said to be vulgar before, how good do you think she is?" Wang Li pursed his lips and sneered.

"You're a man with ambitions and a little girl?" Wang Xu looked at Wang Li with strange eyes.

"Have you ever seen a little girl slaughtering thirty-six wolves in one day?" Wang Li sneered, "Just treat her as a little girl, in addition to slaughtering Tan, the entire Lonely Bamboo Country talks about the art of slaughtering, who is she or who." ”

"That's a little girl, too." Wang Xu looked at Mo Lian, who was holding silk and smiling like a flower, and unconsciously showed a gentle smile.

Wang Li looked at Wang Xu's smile and snorted lightly.

"These silks are so damp." Mo Lian looked at the silk angrily, and his little face had a serious expression, "These savages are too tyrannical!" All the good things are ruined! ”

"This group of savages has so much silk here, and there should be a lot of it, don't get tangled, these things are not of much use except for decoration." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"The emperor still has a serious crown robe." Mo Lian muttered without raising his head.

Wang Xu blinked, smiled and shook his head.

He was about to speak when he was interrupted by a commotion outside.

"This time it's really dug up." Wang Li chuckled and walked out of the room first.

Wang Xu pulled Mo Lian and followed.

The fact that the Linhu tribe can develop into such a scale in the mountains and forests has a direct relationship with the fact that the kings of the Linhu tribe are all cultural people, and it can be seen from the bamboo slips in the palace that the kings of the Linhu tribe are all scholars.

In this era, this kind of wild land, a monarch with military force and culture, is very terrifying.

Therefore, both the social structure and the architectural structure of the forest and the Hu Department are very perfect, which comes from the technology and history recorded in those bamboo slips.

The idea of building a secret chamber granary to store grain can be said to be decades ahead of the surrounding tribes.

The secret room granary of the Lin Hu Department was built very huge, and it was also in the middle of the mountain, after the Zhu family opened the stone gate, a narrow and long passage appeared in front of everyone, giving everyone a problem.

The passage, which can only accommodate three people to advance side by side, is very dangerous to enter rashly, even if you are heavily armoured, you don't dare to trespass in.

"Light the fire, fan it inside, and smoke it out." Wang Xu stopped Yu Chun, who was about to break in.

After a while, Tu Tan piled up firewood, lit the fireworks and fanned them into the passage, and Wang Li didn't know where to get two rabbits to roast on the fire.

"Listen to the people inside, you have been surrounded, lay down your arms, give up resistance, send a representative to talk to us, it would be better if you could tie your hands and capture us!" Under Wang Xu's arrangement, Tu Tan shouted inside at the entrance of the passage, and Dong Huyan and Yayan took turns shouting.

Because Wang Xu always felt that the people of the Lin Hu Department should have someone who could understand the Qiwen and understand the Yayan.

"What are you shouting all this nonsense for? Smoke to the point of suffocation, and they will naturally crawl out. Wang Li once again scoffed at Wang Xu's behavior.

"Have you ever been bitten by a rabbit?" Wang Xu glanced at him.

"Do rabbits bite?" Wang Li was stunned.

"Rabbits bite not only when they're in a hurry, but sometimes they also eat meat, so don't underestimate any species with teeth, didn't you get bitten by a fish last time?" Wang Xu said with a smile.

Wang Li's breath stagnated, his face became inexplicably embarrassed, and he subconsciously clamped his legs, remembering the fear of being bitten when he was fishing in Weiming Lake last time.

Just as the two rabbits were roasted until they were browned and crispy, a violent coughing sound finally came from the long passage.

"Your nobles have mercy!"

Tu Tan, who shouted in pain, turned his head in surprise, "Emperor, it's a guy who speaks elegant words!" ”

"Interesting." Wang Xu smiled and narrowed his eyes.
