Chapter 1286: Life is like a year
Beji, the Sumo tribe.
It was March of the ninth year of the Great Cause (613 A.D.), in the deep mountains and old forests of the white mountains and black waters, the belated spring had also arrived, the river began to break the ice, the snow in the mountains and forests began to melt, and the birds and beasts that had hibernate all winter began to come out of their hiding places that had stayed all winter, the birds in the trees were chirping happily, and the cheerful whistles of the Beji hunters when they rode horses and hunted reverberated back and forth throughout the forest.
Sitting cross-legged in the open space at the entrance of the cave, Feng Lun's complexion was very good, after the discomfort of coming here for the first time, more than two months were enough for him to get used to being a Beji person, his body was covered with a thick leather robe, with a warm dogskin hat, and his hands were also coated with thick antifreeze oil, although it exuded a foul smell, his sense of smell had gradually become accustomed to this smell, and he no longer smelled and vomited like when he first came.
Sister Furong brought a basin of fresh, hot "holy water", put it in a yellow and shiny copper basin, and brought it to Feng Lun's face, he frowned, for more than two months, although other things have gradually become accustomed to it, but this habit of taking urine and washing his face every day, he still can't accept it, he forcibly closed his breath, closed his eyes, washed his hands in this basin, and then quickly wiped it clean with a cloth, while Sister Furong smiled and smeared new lard on his hands.
"Feng Lang, why are you still so disgusted with our Beji's holy water, I see that Li Guard, Chai Guard, and they don't have such a big reaction as you."
Feng Lun opened his eyes and hooked the corners of his mouth: "Defecation is an unclean thing, you have also read the Central Plains poetry book, you should know how disgusting it is." If it weren't for the cold and freezing of the river here, it would not be easy to get water. I'd rather not wash my face and hands for three months than use your holy water. ”
Sister Furong smiled slightly: "Okay, okay, follow the customs, if you get to your Central Plains realm, I will naturally not insist on this habit." Feng Lang, it's spring. The floor is warm, when are we going to Dasui? ”
A hint of coldness flashed in Feng Lun's eyes, this topic was obviously more to his appetite, he gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Not yet, that red whisk is still staying in the Yuling tribe, hmph, she is just waiting for us to do it on the way back." ”
Sister Furong sneered disdainfully: "Is this woman powerful? How is it better than my martial arts? ”
Feng Lun laughed and hugged Sister Furong in his arms. While touching her face, she said: "My lady, but the world's number one heroine, that red whisk is just a spy in Yang Su's mansion in the past. Those ten red whisks are no match for you. ”
Sister Furong hooked the corners of her mouth and pushed Feng Lun away. said coldly: "Hmph, Feng Lang, do you like to lie to me so much?" I've heard you call Red Whisk by her name in my dreams several times, and you dare to say that you haven't had any wrong thoughts about her? ”
Feng Lun was speechless all of a sudden, his eyes rolled, and he laughed: "Baby." That's because I wanted to go back to Dasui as soon as possible, but this red whisk was guarding the way back and wanted to harm me, so that I was now in trouble to go back, I was angry and wanted to scold her, and I wanted to kill her. Think about it, how could I let go of your ready-made treasure and be good to a woman who wants my life? ”
A hint of joy flashed on Sister Furong's face, and she didn't flicker: "Is this true?" ”
Feng Lun said seriously: "Of course it's true, Hongfu is just a maid in Yang Su's mansion, if I had her idea, I could have asked Yang Su to let her be my concubine, I didn't want her back then, it means that I don't feel for this woman at all." Don't think about it. ”
Sister Furong was overjoyed at this time, and said with a smile: "Feng Lang, I have given my people and my heart to you, even if I can only be your concubine in the future, but you must remember what you said, and you can't abandon me or give up on me." ”
Feng Lun smiled: "Okay, okay, the yellow-faced woman in my family was Yang Su's niece back then, and I married her just to make friends with Yang Su back then, now the Yang family has lost power, and the yellow-faced woman is riddled with diseases, it is rare to get out of bed, after you go back, it will be my heart and liver baby, and as soon as the yellow-faced woman dies, I will let you continue the string, do you think this is good?" ”
Sister Furong's eyes widened in surprise: "Really? ”
Feng Lun laughed: "Can this still be fake?" But you'll have to wait, I'll have to help your dad get a name first. Only when he becomes a nobleman, can the backgrounds of our two families match. ”
Sister Furong smiled and opened her mouth, grinned a mouthful of big yellow teeth, and kissed Feng Lun's face heavily: "Feng Lang, I love you to death!" ”
Li Shimin's voice suddenly sounded: "Ambassador Feng, I didn't see anything. ”
Feng Lun's brows furrowed, he got up from the ground, and straightened his clothes: "It turned out to be Shimin's virtuous nephew, it's okay, is there something wrong?" ”
Sister Furong smiled: "I'll go get you fruit wine." ”
Feng Lun's head was numb for a while, he barely hooked the corners of his mouth, did not speak, and watched Sister Furong disappear into the depths of the dense forest with a jump, two lines of tears suddenly flowed in his eyes, and he cried with a sad face, holding Li Shimin's hand: "Virtuous nephew, how long will we stay in this ghost place." I really can't stand it, let this yellow-toothed woman kiss me, I'll be so disgusted that I can't eat for a day, stay for a few more days, I have to die here! ”
Li Shimin smiled slightly: "Ambassador Feng, the affection you have with your wife just now is enviable." Why did you change your hexagram so quickly? ”
Feng Lun spat on the ground hatefully and lowered his voice: "Nonsense, this is the territory of the Beji people, if we show disgust with them, then it will ruin the big thing that the Beji people came to take refuge in, and the heavy ones will directly slaughter them and sacrifice to the gods, how can there be any reason to talk to the barbarians?" ”
Li Shimin sighed softly: "It's hard to be an ambassador, you are the face of the Great Sui, you can only follow the customs of the locals, those things that eat saliva and wine, and wash with holy water, you can only pinch your nose and do it, and the brothers are also sad when they look at it." ”
Feng Lun gritted his teeth: "By the way, I've always wanted to ask you, it's freezing this day, and even going out to pee may directly freeze the **** into ice with urine, and the river is frozen, and the water can't come up, so Beji uses urine to wash his face, what can you do to avoid this step?" ”
Li Shimin smiled slightly: "We can boil snow for boiling water." Such a simple truth, the Beji people can't even think of it, I really don't know how they survived for thousands of years. (To be continued.) )
