Chapter 226: The Bet (Part II)
"What about the bets?" Zhu Huixuan asked, and then seemed to remember something, and said: "Uncle Songhuang, my nephew remembers that a few days ago, the emperor's uncle gave you a great Wanliang horse that Fanbang paid tribute to......"
Because the Ming Dynasty is approaching the end of the year, officials and nobles from all over the Ming Dynasty will send New Year's gifts to Yingtianfu, and the surrounding Fanbang vassal countries will also pay tribute to the Ming court. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
If those nomads talk about wealth, they may not be as good as even a political envoy of the Ming Dynasty, but if they talk about cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock, the Ming Dynasty can't compare to them even if they pat horses.
Therefore, the imperial court received some livestock from the Fanbangs, among which there were ten pure-blooded, specially bred Dawan good horses, that is, the legendary sweat and blood horses.
After Zhu Di received this batch of Dawan good horses, he divided these horses, Zhu Hu, Zhu Song, Xu Huizu and Zhu Neng got one each, and the rest were all raised in the Royal Hunting Garden.
"You kid has a big appetite!" Zhu Song glanced at Zhu Huixuan and said with interest: "If you lose, what can you give to your uncle?" ”
?“ I, I ...... "The little guy is a quick mouth."
Zhu Zhanji moved his little short legs, ran to Zhu Huixuan's side, pulled him and said, "Uncle, didn't Uncle Yang bring back some treasures from Yunnan a few days ago?" You just go back and pick up a piece and come out. ”
"yes, how did I forget!" Zhu Huixuan stomped his feet and clapped his hands, and said, "Uncle Songhuang, if your nephew loses, your nephew will give you whatever you want." ”
"Okay, with your words, it's done!"
Zhu Song glanced at Zhu Huixuan with a smile, turned his head and instructed the seven or eight subordinates to use a brush to evenly apply the red and bright fuel to the blank peach charm.
Of course, this kind of painting is also skillful, they avoid the delicate patterns that the craftsmen deliberately carved on it, and only paint the surrounding area.
The wood of peach wood is delicate and the wood body is fragrant, so the dye is easy to apply.
In addition, the current dyes are not as environmentally unfriendly as Zhu Song's previous life, and the colors used are extracted from the body of plants, and even have a sweet fragrance.
The two little ones were like curious babies, looking at the peach wood for a while, and touching the brush for a while, active like rabbits.
If you wait for people to finish the coloring and cooling of the peach charm, it will take at least half an hour.
Zhu Song is a master who is not willing to be lonely, taking advantage of this time, Zhu Song turned his head to look at Zhu Zhanji, and said: "Zhanji, did you just say that this 'peach talisman' originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty?" Do you know the legend of this 'peach talisman'? ”
"Huh?" Zhu Huirou's little head opened her mouth wide in surprise, and she thought about it very seriously.
This unlucky child, where would he have thought that Zhu Song would ask such a question, after all, since the beginning of the peach talisman, the legends about the peach talisman have gone to the sea, but looking at those legends, none of them have enough recognition.
Don't look at this little guy with a lot of things in his head, but even if he wants to break his head, he doesn't know how to answer this question, so he can only choose to give up helplessly.
But this stinky boy is a well-known ghost elf, he can't answer, whether it means that his uncle doesn't know, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Uncle, my grandson doesn't know!" Still, did you know? ”
As soon as Zhu Zhanji's immature words fell, Zhu Huixuan's little head melon squeezed out of his side, blinking a pair of big eyes full of curiosity, looking at Zhu Song with great eagerness.
These two unlucky children, they wouldn't have thought that in Zhu Song's previous life, there was a super powerful artifact on the Internet, called Bai Nima.
On the top of the Bainima artifact, some basic life knowledge, some professional terms, and personal names or something...... As long as Bai Nima searches, you can get what you want to know in an instant.
Besides, don't look at Zhu Song's work as a bodyguard in his previous life, but he still knows a lot about some folklore and legends.
Seeing the dry smile on Zhu Zhanji's face, Zhu Song naturally knew what the hell this stinky boy was doing, so he laughed faintly and talked eloquently:
"You know what? In the pre-Qin period of China, there was once an absurd and strange book called "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". According to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", a long time ago, there was a ghost world. There is a big mountain in that ghost world, and there are hundreds of ghosts on the mountain......"
"Ghosts! Where are the ghosts? Zhu Huixuan didn't believe it when he heard Zhu Song's words: "Uncle Songhuang, we don't read much, don't fool us!" ”
This kid talks a lot of nonsense.
"Stinky boy, can't you just listen to your uncle's words?" Zhu Song shook the little guy angrily and said.
"Hehe, uncle, what's wrong, you say, keep talking!"
Seeing that Zhu Huixuan didn't know how to continue to mix, Zhu Zhanji suddenly covered Zhu Huixuan's mouth and didn't tell him to speak again.
"Hmph, that's just like words!" Zhu Song touched his chin and continued:
"In the mountains of the ghost world, in addition to the ghosts that spread all over the mountains, there is also a peach tree that covers a radius of three thousand miles. On the treetops there was a golden rooster born, and every morning when the golden rooster crowed, the evil ghosts who were out at night would drive back to the ghost town. ”
"Oh, I remember, I know the back." When he heard this, Zhu Huixuan jumped up and said happily:
"I remember that the nurse once told me that there is indeed a ghost world in this world, and the people who guard the portal and the ghost gate in the ghost world are two great gods with great powers, called Shen Tu and Yu Lei respectively, and the two gods written on the peach talisman are these two great gods!"
?“ Okay, you're right this time! Zhu Song glanced at Zhu Huixuan in surprise and continued:
"Although these two great gods are to protect the ghost gate, they will also strictly restrict the activities of ghosts, and at the end of each year, they will stand under the peach tree to inspect the hundred ghosts, and when they see any evil ghosts that are harmful to people, they will use a kind of 'mango reed rope' that cannot be broken free to tie them up, so that the gods and tigers who specialize in eating evil ghosts will be hungry and eliminate harm for the people."
"Shenhu, it's so powerful!" Zhu Huixuan's eyes lit up.
"That's it!" Zhu Song seduced the two little guys to shake their heads as if telling a story, and continued:
"You must understand that this man is sometimes poor, and even if these two gods are capable, they are limited, and they cannot eliminate all the evil spirits in the world, nor can they guarantee the safety of every household."
"Huh? So what to do? Zhu Zhanji's curiosity was also mobilized, "Don't they have soldiers under them to hunt down evil spirits for them and protect the people?" (To be continued.) )
