Khotan is so rich that if you go around the valley casually, you can find exquisite jade, as well as large pieces of agate, which are priceless in Kaifeng, and suddenly become worthless here.

Brother Guo Xing not only prepared a jade axe for Zhao Da, but also prepared gifts for others, especially to give Mrs. Ye a white jade Buddha, he has only completed less than thirty percent at present, but fortunately, there are still some days before the old man's eighty-fifth birthday, and he should be able to catch up.

Ye Hua didn't care much about gifts, the little guy had this intention, he was very satisfied, but what surprised Ye Hua was why he gave Zhao Da a jade axe, this thing is really a little unusual!

Brother Guo Xing secretly told Ye Hua that the jade axe was the easiest to make, he picked up a long piece of jade, carved and polished it casually, and made the shape of an axe.

"General Zhao is a fierce general of the Great Zhou, how suitable is the jade axe of the mountain, and there is an axe to crush a hundred disasters...... Their family will be safe and secure in the future! Brother Guo Xing smiled and said, "Brother, do you think my idea is good?" ”

"Good! Absolutely! ”

What else can Ye Hua say, is it difficult to tell Brother Guo Xing a story of "Axe Sound Bamboo Shadow"!

"By the way, what about Zhao Kuangyi, why didn't I see him?"

Brother Guo Xing flattened his mouth, "Sure enough, I still feel sorry for my apprentice, he is busy with his work!" Brother Guo Xing obediently led the way and found Zhao Er.

At this moment, Zhao Er was taking a bath in a hot spring in a valley.

There are many trays beside him, which contain fresh fruits, various snacks, and famous dishes from the north and south...... Zhao Er was like a lazy emperor, soaking in water, picking up a few raisins casually, throwing them into his mouth, and chewing them heavily. Then he grabbed the crystal glass and poured two sips of wine.

Ye Hua glanced at Brother Guo Xing, is this called busy? Are you busy enjoying yourself?

Brother Guo Xing was speechless, he could only blink his eyes, Ye Hua strode over and stood behind Zhao Er.

"You're so comfortable!"

The voice was not high, but in Zhao Er's ears, it was no less than a thunderbolt, he was so frightened that he hurriedly stood up, but found that he was wearing nothing, and hurriedly squatted down again.

"That Master...... What are you doing here? Zhao Er's face was flushed, and he desperately gave Guo Xingge a look and asked him to send his clothes over, but Guo Xingge squinted at the sky, and didn't care about Zhao Er at all, so angry that he wanted to go over and catch this kid, press him in the hot spring, and drown!

Ye Hua snorted and pointed at Zhao Er, "You are so virtuous, but you are very disappointed in your teacher, do you have anything to say?" ”

Zhao Er hurriedly said: "Master, misunderstanding, definitely misunderstanding, the disciple is asking someone." ”

Soaking in the hot springs and asking people, it's really chic!

"Is it a woman?"

Zhao Er hurriedly shook his head, "No! ”

"That's a man?" Ye Hua said in horror, Brother Guo Xing next to him was almost laughing, Zhao Er's face turned the color of pig liver, and he said aggrievedly: "Master, let's be serious, that person is neither a man nor a woman...... It's Mamluk! ”

"Mamluk!"

Ye Hua's eyes instantly contracted, and he suddenly became solemn.

Zhao Er saw that the master was serious, and he hurriedly offered a treasure and told the process of his "hard" questioning...... Do you still remember that Mu Xin led a team of elite cavalry to try to assassinate Zhao Er and avenge the two elders?

Mu Xin took revenge, killed the villagers who gave them water and food, and went mad and went to destroy the qanats.

Zhao Er had long suspected that there was a traitor in Khotan, he pretended to go out of the city, and by coincidence, he found the eagle slave of the communication, and he rushed to Karez in advance to set up an ambush.

Karez is a very remarkable irrigation project, which has appeared as early as the Han Dynasty.

The precipitation in the Western Regions is low, and the evaporation is violent, and if the water is directly diverted from the top of the mountain, the water has already evaporated before it reaches the place, so if you want to divert water, you must go through underground ditches.

A shaft tens of meters deep will be drilled to ventilate and move the earth. After digging the shaft, he chose to dig a dark ditch in the direction of the bottom of the mountain, and after digging a distance, he continued to dig the shaft...... In this way, the water was led through the culvert to the bottom of the mountain little by little.

Easier said than done, how difficult it would be to go dozens of meters deep into the ground without any tools, like ants moving, to carry the soil to the ground! Usually there will be water below, and landslides are commonplace, especially the direction, which is not easy to determine......

Behind every qanats is the blood, sweat and lives of countless people!

Mu Xin these things can't be called people at all, they went down the shaft, tried to dig down the earth, abandoned the qanats, and let countless people's decades of hard work go to waste!

Zhao Er made a decisive attack, was shot down by the people on the ground with a crossbow arrow, and then poured fire oil into the well.

The guys below were either burned to death by the fire or suffocated because of the loss of oxygen.

Zhao Er counted the dead people, and the people he was now on the ground had poison sacs hidden in their mouths, and they were shot by crossbow arrows, and when they saw that they couldn't survive, they bit the poison sacs.

But only Mu Xin, he was hit by three crossbow arrows, and his injuries were not very serious, but he was reluctant to die, but he fainted from blood loss.

Zhao Er wanted to cut him with a thousand knives, but when he thought that these guys had all been cleansed and didn't even care about his own life, Zhao Er felt that his scalp was numb, this was a group of out-and-out madmen, and it was not easy to be an opponent with them.

"So the disciple brought him back and tortured him, trying to get the information he wanted out of his mouth......"

"You succeeded?"

"No, the disciple found out that they had carried out the slightest rehearsal of torture, even if the disciple used the most cruel punishment, he would not be able to pry his mouth open."

Ye Hua said: "Mamluk has been brutally trained since he was a child, and our methods are too far behind the slave traders who eat big food, as well as the nobles above!" ”

"Master, I have a good opinion." Zhao Er smiled and said: "The disciple's punishment is useless, but the disciple found that after each punishment, I will feed the prisoner some honey ginseng soup." Prevent Death...... This Muxin is drunk clean every time, and there is not a drop left, especially honey, which is his favorite! ”

Ye Hua smiled, "So you want to use sugar-coated cannonballs?" ”

Zhao Er said proudly: "That guy Mu Xin was cut, and the woman can't impress him, so she can only use delicious food...... Master, guess what he likes to eat the most? ”

Ye Hua's eyes rolled, "It's raisins, right?" ”

Zhao Er was really frightened, "Master, you are really a god!" Later, I heard that the elders above told them that raisins are a delicacy only in heaven...... Do you know? I put the whole bucket of raisins next to Mu Xin, and he went crazy and stuffed a lot of them into his mouth, and I was afraid that he would eat too much, and when he took them, he actually cried...... I don't frown when I am tortured, and I cry when I can't eat raisins! ”

Zhao Er laughed insolently, "Since then, I have prepared all kinds of delicacies for him, fist-sized meat buns, fatty braised pork, mutton hot pot, bear's paws, roast duck...... The guy was completely fallen, and he told me that this is something that can't even be eaten in heaven! He is happier than God now! ”

Ye Hua shrugged his shoulders, "There's nothing strange about this, the gods are a collection of the good thoughts of people from various regions...... Just like our immortals have clairvoyance, ears to the wind, walk with clouds, travel to Fusang, and go to Kunlun at night...... In fact, these ideas, maybe in a few years, ordinary people can also do it. As for what raisins, it can only be said that poverty limits their imagination! ”

Zhao Er clapped his hands excitedly, "Master is really high-minded, let the disciple suddenly open his mouth, and throw his five bodies to the ground." ”

"Alright, don't be a sycophant!"

Ye Hua said: "Let's talk about it, how much information have you taken out, the big war is coming, we must know ourselves and the enemy." ”

"The disciple is here for this, Master, do you know it, I invited Mu Xin to come over to soak in the hot springs and eat delicious food, but that guy actually refused."

Zhao Er puffed up and said: "He told me that he would arrange a beautiful woman to dance for him in a gauze dress, and a twenty-person band to play the tunes of their hometown, so that he would be willing to talk about it!" Damn, he's just a eunuch, what do you want a beautiful woman for? ”

Ye Huawan said with a smile: "Eunuchs are also people, so it's good to be addicted...... If he could not provide useful information, he would be blinded, his nose and tongue cut off, and his deaf ears pierced. Let him live, but he will not taste with his mouth, nor sight nor hear, and let him be in the boundless hell forever! ”

Zhao Er was really overjoyed, in the end, he was still a master, and this means was better than himself!

"Master, I'll arrange for someone to dance and play by the hot springs now, Master, do you want to stay and enjoy it together?"

Ye Hua raised his eyebrows, and then kicked Zhao Er into the hot spring, grabbed Guo Xingge's ears, and quickly left the place of right and wrong.

Brother Guo Xing's face was flushed, his eyes were big, he stared at the direction of the hot spring, and protested: "Brother, I haven't married yet, I can see it, I can!" ”

"Phew!"

Ye Hua smacked him hard, "You kid is bad at learning, go back and do a hundred calculus problems first, as a teacher, I want to see if your knowledge has improved!" ”

"Ahh

Brother Guo Xing wailed, and the whole world went dark.

Three days later, Zhao Er came to meet Ye Hua with a thick stack of files, and at the same time, Brother Guo Xing also came over with a hundred questions, and the two brothers handed in their homework together.

"The so-called Mamluk, is the meaning of slaves, the Great Food Empire from Thrace, the Black Sea coast, the Caucasus and other places, through slave traders, buy and sell children under the age of six, and then the nobles will choose children with good physical fitness from the slave market - castration, and then instill the idea of loyalty to the master, as well as theological knowledge, and when they are fourteen years old, they will be sent to a special military school, for ruthless training, the elimination rate is as high as one-third, after passing the training, these people are the trump cards in the hands of the Great Food Nobles, Loyal and capable Mamluk cavalry! ”

After listening to Ye Hua's introduction, Chai Rong took a deep breath, he was such a ruthless cannibal, he could even do this kind of thing, he was really a fierce enemy!

"Your Majesty, the Black Khan Envoy invites Your Majesty to hunt!"
