Chapter Seventy-Three: Here Comes the Man Who Finds Fault
"This is the city of curbing!" Pan Xiaogu and others went upriver along the valley of the Panyin River and came to the city of Curb Change located in the southwest of Xize Township.
Because of the help of Lingma Lingcao, plus one person and three horses traveling day and night, it only took Pan Xiaogu and the others five days for the seven or eight hundred kilometers of journey.
Along the way, Pan Xiaogu kept collecting geographic information through the system, and finally found that the Panyin River was actually a tributary of the Amu Darya River (known as the Wuhu River), the largest river in Central Asia in later generations, and the city was located in the valley of another tributary of the upper reaches of the Amu Darya River.
The biggest impression of Pan Xiaogu is that the atmosphere of Buddhism is strong, there are many temples inside and outside the city, you can see large and small stupas and Buddha statues everywhere, and monks wearing monk robes can be seen everywhere on the street, which makes people feel like they have come to Thailand in the later generations.
Historically, after the Arab Empire occupied Central Asia, it looted temples, slaughtered monks, and forced Buddhists and other believers to convert to true God, completely erasing the Buddhist culture in Central Asia!
However, the New Earth Arab Empire failed to conquer Persia, and the True God Cult failed to enter Central Asia, so that the Buddhist culture here can be preserved, and it is still the same as when Master Xuanzang traveled west to learn scriptures - if there is also Master Xuanzang in this world.
Of course, a large number of immigrants from the Tang Dynasty have also subtly changed the local culture and customs.
To the east of the old city of the city, there is a larger new city, which the Tang people still call the city of the city, while the local Tocharians call this new city the Tang city, because most of the people living in the city are Tang people.
The old and new cities are connected together, and there is not even a city wall in the middle (the old city wall was demolished), but it is separated by a memorial arch with the characteristics of the Central Plains, and Hu and Han can enter and exit at will, showing the open and inclusive mind of the Tang Dynasty.
Pan Xiaogu and his entourage led the horses and walked along Suzaku Street to the Yueshi Governor's Mansion in Xincheng, and an official from the Yue's Governor's Mansion walked in front to lead the way.
This person is Shi Cui Yan, the governor of the Yue's Governor's Mansion, a figure who has never appeared in history, which makes Pan Xiaogu finally put his mind at ease - finally there is a trick, and the bigwigs of the Yue's Governor's Mansion who appeared before are either historical celebrities, or the background is amazing, and the pressure is too great.
This Cui Changshi is quite talkative, and he has been constantly introducing the customs and customs of the city to Pan Xiaogu and others along the way, and he seems to be enthusiastic, but when Pan Xiaogu knocks on the side to ask about the internal news of the Governor's Mansion, this Cui Changshi will immediately tear away the topic, and it can be seen that behind the mask of enthusiasm, there is a deep vigilance.
Seeing this, Pan Xiaogu simply didn't touch the soft nails, and let this Cui Changshi pull around, so he hired a free tour guide.
The city was originally the capital of the Tocharian aristocracy, and after hundreds of years of operation in the Tang Dynasty, the degree of prosperity far exceeded that of the towns in the territory of Pan Xiaogu, and you can see stalls selling along the street everywhere, and the goods on the stalls are dazzling, including local melons and fruits of the Western Regions, exquisite woolen fabrics, clothes, hats, shoes and socks, and various exquisite handicrafts.
Pan Xiaogu didn't care too much about the prosperous scene in front of him, but the subordinates he brought had long been fascinated by the prosperous scene in front of him, and they would stop and watch for a while in front of each stall, but fortunately, there were not many people on the street at this time, and these people didn't dare to leave the line too far, otherwise maybe someone had already dispersed.
"What are you doing?!" Suddenly, there was an angry sound behind him, Pan Xiaogu turned his head and saw that in front of a stall selling jewelry, a guy dressed as Tang Jun was entangled with one of his subordinates, reaching out from behind to grab his subordinate's helmet.
In order to ensure that the helmet does not fall off while riding, there is a jaw strap under the helmet, so the man failed to get it, which caused the subordinate to exclaim.
"Dutou, what a!" The man missed the blow and jumped backwards decisively, dodging the subordinate's counterattack, while shouting in surprise.
At this time, Pan Xiaogu noticed that there were several companions behind this person, and one of them was still wearing the armor of a low-level officer of the Tang Army.
The one who came to find fault has appeared!
After Pan Xiaogu received the news from the Cheng family that he was asked to take up his position in the city, he guessed that this trip to the city would not be too peaceful, so he was not prepared to bring his sister to come at first.
But I didn't expect that after the girls in the women's barracks learned about this, they were very dissatisfied, thinking that Pan Xiaogu, the lord, looked down on them and had to come with them, Pan Xiaogu thought about it for a while, and felt that these girl inheritors still had to go to the battlefield one day after all, and it didn't seem good to overprotect them, so he screened 10 girl inheritors from the women's barracks to accompany them, and the girl who was molested was one of them.
At this time, other subordinates also heard the movement here, and gathered over, Pan Xiaogu and Cui Changshi were mixed in the crowd, and similarly, a large group of people also gathered on the Tang Army's side, and the people on both sides confronted each other in the middle of the street, and the vendors and ordinary people who set up stalls nearby had already realized that something was wrong and scattered in advance... Hide not far away and watch
"Why didn't Commander Pan restrain his subordinates, if this meeting started?" Cui Changshi saw that Pan Xiaogu did not have the slightest intention of preventing the expansion of the situation, and couldn't help but remind in surprise
"It's good to fight, they are all men in the army, and everything will be solved after a fight." Pan Xiaogu said meaningfully.
When Cui Changshi heard this, he no longer spoke, but looked thoughtfully at the confronting crowd.
The people on Pan Xiaogu's side gathered around the girl who had just been molested, and one of them was standing in front of the girl eagerly
"Sister Nangumo, what's going on? Brother stands up for you! "This person is a warrior, because of the exercises, his figure is extremely burly and strong, at this time he is waiting for a pair of bull's eyes, viciously scanning the Tang Jun on the opposite side
Men will always unconsciously protect their sisters, especially the girls on their side, and even forget how tough these girls are...
The girl who can follow Pan Xiaogu to curb the change of city is not weak in personal strength, and Nanyun girl is the best among them, not only is she invincible in the female barracks, but even most of the male inheritors are not her opponents, plus she has a pungent personality, and she likes to find people everywhere to challenge, so she has a nickname of dominatrix.
"Get out of the way, I don't need you to get out." The dominatrix was really as good as his name, and he pushed away the strong man who was protecting him very strongly, and walked in front of the group of Tang troops alone.
"Which bastard pulled the old lady's helmet just now, get out of here for me..."Nanyun girl pointed at Tang Jun in front of her and scolded, most of the Tang Jun on the opposite side showed a flirtatious smile on their faces, and the head of the capital was even more obscene, wanting to make another joke, but before he could speak, he listened to Nanyun girl's domineering continued
“... Kneel and kowtow three times, and say again Grandma I was wrong, otherwise the old lady would chop off his dog paws today! ”
