200 Don't lie to me

Cao Zhang asked Wei Zhen to help Wei Ting find the Qiang caravan hidden in Linfen and then returned to the courtyard to practice the 'Five Fowl Opera' taught by Hua Tuo, since learning the Five Fowl Opera, Cao Zhang will practice whenever he has leisure time, and he has really benefited a lot, he feels more and more that he is physically strong, his appetite is gradually increasing, and he feels that he always has endless energy, and most importantly, Cao Chang found that the Five Fowl Opera has a great benefit, that is, he can control the cramp time when he is in the development period.

It is now the seventh year of Jian'an, 202 AD, Cao Zhang is thirteen years old, is in the juvenile period, at that time there was such a proverb, called "juvenile is not a soldier", not that young people can not be soldiers, but juvenile when the body is growing up, the body is growing taller and often has calf cramps, imagine if you are fighting with the enemy when you suddenly cramp, that is not waiting for death? Therefore, men cannot go to war when they are growing their bodies.

But Cao Zhang's cramping time is always within an hour after he finished playing three sets of five bird plays, and it is tried and tested, Cao Zhang has not discovered this rule at the beginning, but then every time he practices five bird plays three times, he will have calf cramps, although not every time, but after a while, such a situation will appear, and every time it is in the same time.

According to Zhang Ji's explanation, Hua Tuo's five-bird opera can regulate the body's physical function, so practicing the five-bird opera will stretch the muscles and bones, and Cao Zhang, who is in the development period, will have cramps when the muscles and bones are stretched to a certain extent after practicing the five-bird play.

Cao Zhang listened to Zhang Ji's explanation and thought it was true, remembering that when he grew up in his previous life, he often did it after a lot of exercise in physical education class, which shows that the medical wisdom of the ancients was very high.

After cramping once, he will not cramp here for at least a month, but if he practices Wufowl Opera three times a day, he will have cramps once in the second half of the same month, and now it is late July, Cao Zhang, after practicing Wufowl Opera three times, will go to the room and wait for calf cramps, sure enough, the severe pain came from the calf within an hour, and Cao Chang breathed a sigh of relief after gritting his teeth, he knew that July would not cramp again.

At this time, the guards came to report, saying that Wei Ting had found Xian Lingqiang's mansion, and at this time the tomb keepers had surrounded the mansion, and Cao Zhang immediately asked the guards to prepare the carriage after hearing the news, and he was ready to explain the situation to these merchants in person.

At this time, it is the rainy season, one moment the sun is in the sky, and the next moment it may be a downpour, so Cao Zhang will choose to take the carriage, and after a while, the carriage has been waiting at the gate of the county government, Cao Zhang turned out of the door and got into the carriage, and drove towards the place where Wei Ting told him.

After about a cup of tea, the carriage stopped, and the guard said to Cao Zhang, "Report to your lordship, you have arrived at the place." ”

Cao Zhang heard the words "um" and stepped out of the carriage, and found himself in an alley, in front of which was a small mansion, looking at the nine-palace layout house that should be nine courtyards, at this time it was already dominated by the tomb keepers, and it was Wei Ting and Wei Zhen who stood at the door.

When the two saw Cao Zhang, they immediately stepped forward to salute, and Cao Zhang said, "No need to be polite, are people in the courtyard?" ”

Wei Ting replied: "Exactly, we have checked their goods and found that their goods are not very valuable, but there are a large number of plain silks, and many of them record the richness of the pavilions in Pingyang counties and the specific situation of what they produce, which is the usual method used by the caravans supported by Xian Lingqiang. ”

Wei Zhen then added: "This group of people are all Qiang people, even if they look like Han people, they actually grew up in the Qiang people, because the way they bind the horse's reins are all Qiang people's habitual methods, and they are indeed the first Qiang methods!" ”

Cao Zhangqi said: "Is there a different way to tie the horse reins?" "Cao Zhang was born in the Central Plains, and everyone has the same way of tying up the horse's reins, so he asked.

Wei Zhen replied: "There will be some differences in the nomads' methods of tying the horse's reins, because the nomads live in tents, and their tents are inserted into the ground with wooden poles, and then the tents made of animal skins and linen are made on them, and the oases of the grassland and the desert are raging with strong winds, in order to prevent the wind from blowing away the tents, so the binding is extremely strong, and the binding techniques of each ethnic group have slight differences, and habits have led to differences in their methods of tying the horse's reins. ”

Cao Zhang nodded and said, "I see!" "I have a little more praise for Wei Zhen in my heart, it seems that this deserter has now become a rare general, not only has two thousand tomb keepers, but also the husband of the head of the Huo family, and has a deep understanding of the habits of the nomads, plus he has been fighting with the nomads for many years, it is really the best choice to use it to defend the border.

While speaking, Wei Ting and Wei Zhen accompanied Cao Zhang into the house, only to hear Wei Ting say: "My lord, there are twenty-three men and women in this caravan, eleven men and twelve women, we have concentrated all the men in the caravan in the main hall, and the women in the side hall, I don't know if the adults want to judge the men or women first?" ”

Cao Zhang said: "Let's try the man first!" When Wei Ting heard this, he took Cao Zhang to the main hall.

As soon as he entered the main hall, Cao Zhang saw eleven men in Hanfu sitting according to a case, but half of them were Hu people, their cheekbones were relatively high, and the color of their glasses was not the same, although it was not blue, but it was not the black of the Central Plains, but a light brown, and the hair of these people was curly, and the difference between them and the Han people could be seen at a glance.

Wei Ting and Wei Zhen obviously treated them more favorably, let them sit in front of the desk, there was still wine and meat on the desk, Cao Zhangjin entered the main hall and Wei Ting and Wei Zhen directly guided him to the main position, and after sitting down, Wei Ting said loudly to these merchants: "This is my lord Jinwu, he has something to say to you." ”

The merchants looked at each other, and a forty-year-old man of Han appearance, medium stature, and mediocre appearance stood up and said, "The younger one is the leader of the caravan, I don't know what the adults command?" ”

Cao Zhang looked at this person for a long time, and suddenly asked Wei Ting with a smile: "Master Wei, have you asked them who is the leader before?" ”

Wei Ting replied: "Lord Hui, they are saying that this merchant surnamed Chen is the leader. ”

Cao Zhang said: "This person is not the leader of the caravan. Then he turned to the merchant surnamed Chen and said, "At least six of the eleven people here are higher than you, and your leader is no longer here at all, why do you think that I, an official of 2,000 stones, are not worthy to talk to your leader?" ”

The merchant surnamed Chen had a strange expression on his face and forced a smile: "Why did your lord say this? The small ones are indeed ... ”

Cao Zhang shouted violently: "Don't lie to me! Give you one more chance, call out your true leader, or I'll kill you!" (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
