What is this?!

Wei Yan wanted to clap his hands and praise him without hesitation, he simply asked his heart, saying that he also wanted to know what it was, seeing that everyone looked at him with curiosity and expectation, Wei Yan couldn't help but start to reflect and carefully recall the self-introduction he had done in the past. He introduced himself as a doctor and a surgeon, but he didn't say he was a veterinarian, let alone that he had studied zoology or anything like that, so why did these people think he could recognize what it was?

Looking at the thick fur of the animal, Wei Yan considered the words and said, "It looks like an animal that lives in a cold place." There is a saying that the living environment is different, even if it is just an ordinary moth, it will have a different appearance and appearance, and even the habits will be very different, and even the same thing, but because the country is different, the name is not the same, the minister has never been to the country of wandering ghosts, I really can't say, let Your Majesty and your lords disappointed. ”

Everyone nodded, although they were a little disappointed, but there was nothing surprising about it, Wei Yan was an ordinary person, how could he know everything. The crowd watched around for a while, and there was a lot of discussion.

Wei Yan also leaned over, looked at it carefully, it was taller than a cow, nearly two meters or so by sight, its back was high and raised, some like the hump of a camel, with a big head and a thick neck, two of them stood together, obviously a pair of male and female, and asked the envoy of the Ghost Country, the one with horns was male, and the one without horns was the female.

Wei Yan stared at it for a long time, looking at its horns, it was a substance similar to a deer antler, different from the smooth texture of a cow's horn, and muttered: "This thing can't be a kind of deer, right?!" Look at the horn is quite similar. The size is not very large. ”

"Ziyue said this, it really looks like a deer antler."

His Majesty Li Er didn't know when he stood next to Wei Yan. Staring at the strange animal with him, he listened to his own words, not to mention that Wei Yan didn't deliberately lower his voice. Wei Yan smirked and said, "Your Majesty thinks so too?" ”

His Majesty Li Er said in a low voice: "After your reminder, it really looks like a deer, could it be a hybrid of a deer and a cow?" ”

Wei Yan's face was full of black lines and a head door. Looking at His Majesty Li Er's gaze, he was very restrained and entangled. opened his mouth and stammered, obviously thundered by His Majesty Li Er's words, and didn't know how to answer. His Majesty Li Er also seemed to have come to his senses, and now he said a stupid word, coughed, and acted as if nothing happened.

Wei Yan didn't care about himself, rubbed his nose, and continued to pretend to look at the animals as if nothing happened. Seeing that no one in the Tang Dynasty knew that animal. Although the envoy of the Wandering Ghost Country still looked humble, the color in his eyes was not concealed at all, and his face was full of red light, which was really an eyesore. ****

Don't say that His Majesty Li Er is a person who loves face so much, but Wei Yan felt that it was an eyesore when he watched it from the sidelines, and his eyes were rolling, thinking about how to get his face back. When His Majesty Li Er saw his expression, he didn't know what his plans were, so he didn't say a word. A glance passed, and the little yellow father-in-law immediately ran over and asked respectfully, "Does Lord Wei have something to tell the little one?" ”

Wei Yan groaned slightly, hooked his fingers, and motioned for Xiao Huang's father-in-law to come over with his ear, and Xiao Huang's father-in-law immediately leaned over to listen, Wei Yan muttered a few words in his ear, and Xiao Huang's father-in-law smiled when he heard it. Look at Wei Yan's expression. It's completely weird, but it's still obedient to go.

After the little yellow father-in-law goes. Wei Yan paced to the envoy of the Wandering Ghost Country and said with a smile: "May I ask your envoy, how is this thing called in your country and in your language?" In our place, it is called according to the shape characteristics, because it is very rare, and it grows in cold places, and I have not seen many of them, is it called a moose? ”

This name, Wei Yan is purely by the blind, can be blinded that is luck, can not be blinded, there is also a back to find face, look at the animal's high and inclined back, it really looks like a hump, see the hump reminds of the camel. Wei Yan has a bad habit, when he was a child, when he knew words, not all words were known, so when he encountered words he didn't know, he developed a bad habit of "reading while reading, reading without reading", even guessing with Meng, but also guessed a lot of words, of course, also made a lot of jokes.

With a bit of luck, Wei Yan felt that anyway, the words of the Flowing Ghost Country were different from the official dialect of the Tang Dynasty, even if the envoys of the Flowing Ghost Country could speak the Tang dialect, but they didn't necessarily know everything, foreigners were foreigners after all, just like he, the traverser, was always a traverser, and it was impossible to know everything.

The envoy of the Wandering Ghost Country was really stunned by Wei Yan's question, and his face was full of doubts, but he still politely said the name of the Wandering Ghost Country to the animal, and the foreign language that was muttering, Wei Yan did not understand it, and the way of listening was somewhat similar to the way of Russian pronunciation.

Wei Yan nodded with a serious expression, remembering the name by memory, with a look of sudden realization: "Sure enough, it's a moose, but your ghost country is completely different from our Tang Dynasty." ”

Everyone was stunned, looking at his expression, and couldn't help but be a little suspicious, the envoy of the Ghost Country was obviously also a meng, and no one said that he knew him just now, why did Wei Yan suddenly say his name?! The envoy of the Wandering Ghost Country pondered, "My lord, as you said, the name of our country is different from that of your country, can you tell me why this thing is called a moose?" ”

Wei Yan cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Of course you can, this can be regarded as a kind of cultural exchange." I don't know if your envoy has heard that in the countries of the Western Regions, the livestock used by people to transport is called the Desert Boat by the travelers in the desert, I don't know what the name of the Western Regions is, we call it camel in the Tang Dynasty. ”

The conversation here has already attracted everyone to come over, and the envoys of various countries have also come over, and the countries of the Western Regions also have envoys in Chang'an, hearing Wei Yan's words, he nodded and said: "What this lord said is that in our Western Regions, camels are comparable to the ploughing cattle of the Tang Dynasty, and they are indispensable partners in our lives!" ”

Wei Yan smiled: "Thank you for testifying on behalf of Wei." ”

At that time, he was modest: "Don't dare, don't dare, I've long heard that Master Jiuwei of the medical school is well-informed." I have seen and heard a lot, and now I see it. Sure enough, it lives up to its name. ”

Wei Yan said modestly: "Your envoy has a good reputation, and he can't talk about being well-informed, but he has traveled more places and seen a little more things, but the world is so vast." Compared to not knowing, there is still too little to know. ”

Wei Yan's modest and cautious style was immediately praised by the participants. It's so loud that you can't see your teeth and eyes, not to mention how beautiful it is. At this time, Fang Xuanling on the side said in a timely manner: "Your Majesty, the minister remembers that a vassal country in the Western Regions once presented this strange beast called camel to Your Majesty. ”

His Majesty Li Er smiled lightly and made a bland appearance: "It has been dedicated by a subject country and raised in the imperial garden, since Ziyue said it, I will let someone bring it over." Let's take a look. ”

After that, a glance passed, and there was no need to command at all, and someone ran out to lead the camel. After someone went to lead the camel, His Majesty Li Er motioned to Wei Yan to continue. Wei Yan said: "Your Majesty, your lords, your envoys, please take a closer look, this moose's back. High and raised, the back is higher than the hips, and it resembles a camel, hence the name moose. ”

Everyone took a closer look, and after a while, the guards also brought the camels in the garden. Wei Yan looked at it, and secretly shouted in his heart that God would help me, and said happily: "The camel has been brought." Let's compare and see. ”

The guards brought a dromedary. There is only one hump that rises high, compared to a moose. The hump is indeed higher and more obvious, but the reason for Wei Yan can also be said. "As far as I know, in the Western Regions, there are two kinds of camels, one is like this one, there is only one hump, this kind of camel can not only walk freely in the desert, but also walk on the snow; There is also a two-humpled camel, which often lives in hot deserts and is better adapted to hot terrain than dromedary. This envoy, is you right? ”

Wei Yan asked the envoy from the Western Regions who helped him prove it just now, the man smiled and nodded yes, and once again helped Wei Yan prove that what he said was true, the envoy of the Ghost Country was a little skeptical just now, but now he already believed it, believing that Wei Yan could indeed recognize this thing.

Wei Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, secretly made a V-shaped gesture, turned his head to look, and just saw Xiao Huang's father-in-law gesturing to him on the side, Wei Yan nodded imperceptibly, signaling Xiao Huang's father-in-law to act according to the plan, Xiao Huang's father-in-law nodded, waved his hand, and asked the two guards to lead a thin dog over.

Seeing that the fine dog was brought over, everyone looked puzzled, but those who were familiar with Wei Yan's temperament knew that he was about to start tossing, so they all glanced at the envoy of the ghost country sympathetically and proudly, and waited for Wei Yan's performance.

Wei Yan walked to the envoy of the Wandering Ghost Country, and said with a smile: "I have been talking for a long time, and I have been talking with your envoy for a long time, and I haven't asked your envoy for his surname. ”

The envoy of the Wandering Ghost Country hurriedly said: "The name under it is too long compared to the Tang people, so it is good for the adults to call it under Kruf." ”

Wei Yan behaved politely: "Then Wei Mou is welcome, Lord Crouff, please look at this thing, Mr. Crouff does you know what this thing is called?" ”

Kluf glanced at the fine dog and said calmly: "I know this thing below, this thing is called a fine dog, and it is a hunting dog raised by the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty, which is smart and fierce, and it is a rare good hunting dog." ”

Wei Yan smiled: "Your Excellency really knows my Datang very well, do you know the origin of this dog?" ”

Crouff said honestly: "This ...... I don't know, please give me advice. ”

Wei Yan said: "The thin dog originated in the Western Regions, and it was brought back to our country by the envoy Zhang Qian of the Han Dynasty when he went to the Western Regions. ”

Crouff only responded, but his face was full of doubts, obviously he didn't understand why Wei Yan suddenly pulled a dog that almost everyone knew to come up to him to identify, and the rest of the people were also full of questions, but His Majesty Li Er didn't know if he really guessed, or he was very confident in Wei Yan, he still smiled faintly, touched his beard, and waited for Wei Yan's next words.

Wei Yan said: "We all use this kind of dog for hunting in Datang, which is very different from the hunting dogs in your country, right?" Your country has a cold climate, and the hunting dogs used in the land must be those with fine hair, thick fur, and cold resistance, right? ”

Kluf couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Wei Yan's gourd, so he could only follow his words and said humbly: "What Lord Wei said is very true, but the hunting dogs used in our country are different. ”

Wei Yan said with a smile: "The same hunting dog, we use fine dogs in the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions, and your country uses other hunting dogs, the world is so big, there are no surprises, the world is so vast, who can say that you know everything?" It is precisely because the things that people know are so few things as they are in the world that the saints of our country say that if you are a threesome, you must have my teacher. Do you think so? ”

Wei Yan looked at Crouff with a smile, and Crouff said with a cold sweat on his face: "What Lord Wei said is very superficial, thank you Lord Wei for your advice." ”

Wei Yan smiled: "No, I can't talk about advice, what your envoy does is just human nature." I don't know if your envoy has ever heard a sentence that says that the sea is tolerant of all rivers, there is tolerance, there are thousands of walls, and there is no desire. The fine dog is native to the Western Regions, but now it has become a domestic animal in my Datang family, and the moose are native to your country. ”

Wei Yan said this seriously, and after finishing speaking, he didn't care about the envoy's uneasiness, secretly wiped the sweat on his forehead, and secretly rejoiced in his heart----Oh mom, it's finally back!" Long live the flickering spirit!

After rejoicing, facing the smiling gaze of His Majesty Li Er, Wei Yan bowed slightly, and muttered to himself in his heart, good my Second Majesty Li Er, who can carry and fool, we have already done it, it is time for your old man to play. His Majesty Li Er obviously still has a tacit understanding with Wei Yan, laughed at the right time, clapped his hands and said, "Well said!" The sea is inclusive, and there is tolerance. I look forward to seeing more rare birds and beasts, exotic flowers and plants that do not belong to my Datang, so as to witness the vastness and breadth of the world with my own eyes. ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" After His Majesty Li Er finished speaking, both the Tang people and the envoys knelt down and saluted. Wei Yan also saluted, but in his heart he admired His Majesty Li Er, sure enough, the momentum of being an emperor is different, he is not saying this in disguise to declare that our Tang Dynasty will become more and more prosperous, there will be more and more subject countries, and there will be more and more subject countries, so there must be more strange animals to offer, no wonder those envoys are so humble one by one, I have to say, long live Your Majesty Li Er!
