Chapter 102: The Cursed Kingdom of Khotan
Tie Xinyuan was gobbling up food while he was eating, and Wei Chi Zhuozhuo, who was free to observe and serve his own food. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The time has passed, and the ceremony of sacrificing the fallen soldiers has come to an end after offering the blood of the three animals.
This ceremony is very strange, the chanting of the scriptures is lamas, but the ritual of offering the blood of the three animals is pure Song and Han etiquette.
Yu Chi Zhuozhuo is very strange today, from the moment she entered the door to now, she has been acting like a little daughter-in-law, she has been very thoughtful with her head down, and the strangest thing is that she even helped Tie Xinyuan tear the chicken off the bone and put it into Tie Xinyuan's bowl little by little.
Tie Xinyuan took advantage of Wei Chi Zhuozhuo's efforts to fill himself with food and thought about it for a while, but he didn't have a clue, so he put this matter aside and continued to eat.
I haven't taken a bath for three days, which is a very serious torture for Tie Xinyuan. This bath is definitely not something that can be fooled by taking a shower.
Wang Anshi had a good time in the hot spring hall, so Tie Xinyuan didn't plan to go there to find himself uncomfortable.
The large bathtub was filled with hot water, and Tie Xinyuan moaned comfortably lying in it, for him, taking a bath was the best way to relieve fatigue.
Wei Chizhuo continued to add water to the basin with the wooden bucket, she was not used to doing this kind of rough work, and once again even threw the wooden bucket on Tie Xinyuan's belly.
Tie Xinyuan handed the barrel to Yu Chi Zhuozhuo without changing his face, wanting to see what she was going to do.
Yu Chi Zhuozhuo took the wooden barrel, but squatted on the edge of the bathtub and cried.
"Whoever bullied you, I'm going to break his leg." Tie Xinyuan lay on the edge of the bathtub and comforted.
"Am I useless?" Yu Chizhuo raised his tearful face and asked Tie Xinyuan.
"Nonsense, how could you be useless, I can't do without you now, if you're not there, I don't even know where the paperwork I read yesterday is.
What the hell is going on? Say it quickly, I don't have the heart to guess! ”
Wei Chizhuo wiped his tears, pushed Tie Xinyuan back into the bathtub, let him lie comfortably in the bathtub, gently massaged his temples and said softly: "You will soak more today, the concubine has something to say." ”
Tie Xinyuan rolled his eyes and glanced at Yu Chi's rounded chin and said, "Before I fall asleep, finish the words and pick the key points." ”
Wei Chizhuo nodded and said, "There are a lot of words, and they are all important points. The concubine tried to speak as quickly as possible. ”
Tie Xinyuan closed his eyes and changed to a more comfortable position, ready to listen to Yu Chi Zhuo's long story.
"When the concubine was born, the country of Khotan was destroyed, and there were still many clansmen at that time, and everyone swore that they would kill back Khotan, rebuild the Kingdom of Khotan, and continue to make the surname of Yu Chi great.
So, they fought against the Great Cannibals, against the Qarakhanids, against the Uighurs, against robbers, against horse thieves, and even against merchants, and every battle was very heroic......
As a result, more people died.
From the time I was sensible, our people wandered in the mountains, and rarely stayed in one place or that for more than a year.
Many times, we have just cleared the field in the wilderness and planted the seeds, and then we have to leave again...... Because the enemy is coming.
The concubine still remembers that when we camped by the Jimo River, our camp could still be two or three miles away, and I could still sit in Elder Baizi's arms and listen to the fierce quarrels of those men.
It was a good time, and I was able to get fine food that was different from the rest of the people, and I wore beautiful clothes to play with the maids by the river.
Until one day, my father rode out on horseback and never came back, and then my brother was proclaimed king, and he was so young that he could barely reach the stirrups on horseback......"
When Wei Chizhuo said this, he couldn't stop crying.
Tie Xinyuan sighed, reached out and held Wei Chi's scorching hand and put it on his shoulder, so that he could give some comfort to this woman who told about the suffering past.
The Wei Chi clan can be described as a strong and unyielding race, and it is a miracle that they have been able to persist in fighting for more than a hundred years in the Western Regions, which is the enemy of the world.
The reason why Tie Xinyuan was able to accommodate and send Meng Yuanzhi to help these people was out of respect for this race.
The Yuchi clan was originally a country composed of Semu people, because they admired the Han culture, therefore, for hundreds of years, their race has been intermarrying with the Han people, and today, their appearance is not much different from the Song people and Han people.
Yu Chi Lei's beard was curly, Yu Chi's burning eyes were slightly blue, and Yu Chiwen - this guy was no different from Tie Xinyuan's Song appearance.
There is a hole in Tie Xinyuan's collarbone, which is the humiliation that Mu Xin brought him, and it is a forbidden area on his body, even if it is Wei Chi Zhuo, it cannot be easily touched, and the only person who has no taboos is Zhao Wan.
Now, Wei Chi's scorching hand was covering the ugly hole.
Wei Chi Zhuo gently rubbed the wound with pity and said softly: "My brother is a great man of a generation, although he is young, he is ambitious - this is very similar to you, if he is still alive, you and he will definitely become good friends." ”
Tie Xinyuan shook his head and said: "This is impossible, I hate all my peers who are smarter than me, or stronger than me, when I see this kind of person, my first reaction is to swing a knife and hack him to death." ”
As if he hadn't heard Tie Xinyuan's nonsense, Wei Chi Zhuozhuo continued to have hysteria: "In order to strengthen his body, he has to cut a hundred wooden stakes every day and draw his bow three hundred times a day, so he rarely has time to accompany me.
He was so powerful, every time he went out into battle, he could return triumphantly, there were few wounds on his body, but there was a lot of blood on his armor, but it was all the enemy's.
He likes to stand in the sun and let his people splash water on his armor, and then the ground will be stained red with blood.
At that time, he was as strong as a mountain, and I thought that I would be able to live happily under his protection for the rest of my life......
In the battle of Da Tooth Mountain, we lost, and the allies who had promised to help did not come, but the expected enemy came three times as much.
When the elder brother left, he took 1,500 samurai with him, but when he returned, there were only 268 of them.
Yu Chifeng is the most beautiful man in the clan, his smile is as warm as the sun, and the maids of the clan like to go to his tent to play the most.
As a result, that day, Yu Chifeng came back, one of his eyes was hanging outside the eye socket, and his whole face was like a rotten persimmon, and he heard that his face was smashed by the enemy with a mace.
Yu Chi Lei is a genius in the clan to paint, especially he has a unique skill of painting with one hand and two hands, my grandfather thinks that he is the most likely person in the clan to become a painting grandmaster after Wei Chi.
He took good care of his hands, and even when he was fighting, he did not forget to wrap his hands with strips of cloth, a habit he maintained for forty years.
On that day, he also returned, and one of his right arms was cut off at elbow......
My brother Wei Chiyun also returned, he was carried back for the first time, and when I saw it, his blood was already soaked in the stretcher, and he did not stand under the sun and let the people splash water to wash his armor......
His armor was rotten and covered in wounds, and I couldn't count how many wounds he had...... That's it, he saw it and smiled at me......"
Wei Chizhuo wiped her tears vigorously, but the tears flowed more and more, and later, she simply ignored them and let the tears drip like a waterfall on Tie Xinyuan's face.
"Yu Chifeng died on the night he came back, I heard that he committed suicide, his wife also died that night, Yu Chiwen is their son, at that time, this guy didn't know how to speak, he only knew to open his mouth and smirk, even when he was cremating his parents, he still laughed and drooled.
The next day we left the comfortable valley and headed deeper into the mountains, becoming more and more desolate......
My brother survived, but he coughed very badly, and often coughed and there would be blood stains on the corners of his mouth.
He seemed to know that he would not survive the next winter, and in the fall, he led the remaining samurai to raid the caravan frantically.
He robbed everything, grain, cloth, salt, furs...... At that time, my brother was even more vicious than the most ferocious horse thief in the world.
When winter came, our whole clan lived in a huge cave, and there were a lot of bats in that cave, and in the evening, the bats would fly out of the cave in droves, like a dark cloud.
My brother was so thin that he didn't have the strength to go out and rob anymore, just coughing all day.
One day when I gave him water, he coughed up half a bowl of blood, and he drank the blood again, and I was terrified.
That night, my brother did not fall asleep and talked to me a lot, about my wedding, about my dowry, about my future husband.
In the end, he told me that I should forget about Khotan and live well......"
When Wei Chi Zhuozhuo said this, he was already crying, holding Tie Xinyuan's head tightly, eager to stuff his head into Tie Xinyuan's head.
Tie Xinyuan stretched out his tongue and licked the corners of his mouth, and found that Wei Chi's burning tears were very salty and a little bitter.
Seeing that Wei Chi Zhuozhuo gradually regained his composure, he said helplessly: "To the point, who bullied you, tell me, I'll discount his leg!" ”
Yu Chi sobbed and said: "Today, someone asked me to forget about Khotan, and asked me to leave the affairs of the Yuchi clan alone, and said that he is the patriarch of the Yuchi clan, and I am just a daughter of the Yuchi family who has been married......"
"Wei Chiwen, right? I'm going to beat him up when I'm done showering. ”
Wei Chizhuo shook his head violently and said: "What he said is right, just like my brother, what they said is right, the country of Khotan has already perished."
A man as good as my brother can't let Khotan restore the country, which shows that God does not allow us to restore the country, Khotan is a cursed country, and anyone who goes against the sky will be punished, I don't want you to repeat his mistakes! ”
