Chapter 213: The Mekong

I am afraid that no one in modern times will not know about the opium poppy, because it is the main source of modern drugs.

Needless to say, a normal person can know it, but what Lin Bei didn't expect was that in this era, someone had already discovered the role of the poppy? After using it, the power is infinite, and you are not afraid of death? The strength is infinite, but it should be true that he is not afraid of death, because his mind is confused, so he naturally will not be afraid of anything.

Another strange thing is Lin Bei's instinctive reaction, he can now suppress most of the instinctive reactions of this body, such as Lin Bei does not eat raw blood food, except for some things that are really irresistible such as hibernation and molting, the instinctive reflection of the snake body is already a little weak, who knows that when he saw the poppies, Lin Bei's body suddenly had a desire, this desire drove Lin Bei, let Lin Bei go and eat these poppies.

This instinctive reflection really frightened Lin Bei a little, as a modern person, he knows the danger of poison/products, and he is naturally afraid of this kind of thing, now he knows that what is in front of him is a poppy, but his body drives him to eat it, how can this not make Lin Bei feel terrible.

But at the same time, Lin Bei felt curious, why did his body want to eat poppies? If you think about it, it's likely that poppies can bring some changes to the body, and this change is beneficial, like eating when you're hungry, knowing that you'll fill your stomach after eating.

"My lord, can you see anything strange about this divine flower?" Wang Laicai saw that Lin Bei was slow to move, and asked with some doubts.

Lin Bei came back to his senses and shook his head: "I can't see it either." Then he muttered and said, "Then let these divine flowers be left like this." ”

"No."

Lin Bei did not let the sergeants pull out the poppy, the first is that Lin Bei wants to study the reflection of this body, and the second is that it is better to block it than to sparse, although he also knows that the poppy is quite terrifying, but if Lin Bei seems very cautious. If you want to extinguish it quickly, maybe someone will arouse curiosity to try it, which will be counterproductive.

"By the way, you go back and interrogate those natives, and ask them how to eat the Divine Flower and Divine Fruit, whether they just eat it or what they need to do first."

Wang Laicai smiled: "My lord." It has already been interrogated, and it is necessary to wait for the flowers to be gone, and bear fruit, and then squeeze out the juice from the fruit and eat it, which is said to be very small, and the juice of such a large flower knot is only a few bowls. ”

Lin Bei's heart was awe-inspiring, this was already a modern step in extracting poisons/products, and he didn't expect the natives to really master it, but they definitely didn't think of how to use this juice on a large scale.

"You go back first. I'll stay here a little longer. "Lin Bei said to the king to make money.

Wang Laicai turned around and left, leaving only Lin Bei.

Lin Bei climbed in front of a poppy flower, and sniffed it, the poppy had no fragrance, but Lin Bei felt that the throbbing of his body was getting stronger and stronger, as if there was a voice in his heart that kept telling him: "Eat it, eat it"

Lin Bei suppressed this strong throbbing, he didn't dare to joke about this kind of thing at all.

It is said that many people who become addicted to drugs do so initially because they have a lot of confidence in themselves. There are not many people who think they can resist drugs/addictions, but unfortunately it turns out that there are not many people who are so strong-willed. That's why there will be compulsory rehabilitation/drugs, Lin Bei doesn't think he has the will to do this, once he eats poppies, maybe he will become addicted, and the consequences will be quite terrible, Lin Bei doesn't want to become an addict.

So. Lin Bei turned around and left resolutely, as Lin Bei walked away, the throbbing became smaller and smaller, and finally Lin Bei's body calmed down.

Lin Bei stopped. "It's really weird, poppies can make the body reflect, but it's a pity, if only it wasn't a poppy but something else."

If it was another plant, Lin Bei would definitely try it, but unfortunately this is a poppy, unless Lin Bei loses his mind, he will definitely not try it, not even a bite.

By the time Lin Bei returned to the Wabo tribe, the sergeants had already begun to escort the natives onto the boats and then transport them away, and would send all the natives back to Wanghai City, and then let the natives build roads and cut wood, and the sergeants were very rude in their movements, as long as the natives walked slowly, they would be beaten with sticks.

"This is a war of aggression." Lin Bei looked at these scenes, although he was a little unbearable in his heart, but he knew that this kind of thing had to be experienced, the races were different from each other, and it was actually quite good to Lin Bei here, you must know that in the late Three Kingdoms period, the era of Wuhu Chaohua, the Hu people regarded the Han people as two-legged sheep, and they were also classified, the old and thin man was called Rao Jiaohuo, which means that this kind of human flesh is a little old, and it takes a few more fires to be cooked, and the young woman is called the non-envious sheep, which means that this kind of meat is delicious, more than mutton, and the child is called and the bone is rotten, It means that the meat of a child is tender, and the bones and meat can be boiled when boiled, which sounds incredible, but it is recorded in the history books.

Wuhu Chaohua is the darkest period in the history of the Han people, these Hu people plundered the Han land and never brought any military rations, when they met the Han people, they tied them up and ate them as military rations, and it was common to eat hundreds of thousands of Han people on an expedition, and in this hundred years, the number of Han people who were eaten alone reached millions.

Therefore, Lin Bei did not let the soldiers kill or eat these natives, which can be regarded as merciful, these natives can eat people.

Thinking of that bloody and brutal history, Lin Bei's unbearable heart dissipated, this is the lesser of two evils, so that this dark history of later generations of China will be repeated, it is better for Lin Bei to bear this guilt.

"After escorting these natives back, let An Zhongzhi take care of them, and then let them build roads and cut trees." Lin Bei ordered.

Wang Laicai nodded, naturally he had to let them work, otherwise let these natives eat and drink for nothing?

In addition to transporting people away, grain and precious stones had to be transported, and although the natives had outdated weapons, some spears were made of iron, and these had to be removed and transported back to Wanghai, and then the logging regiment and the shipwright group on the other side of the stronghold would slowly come and use this Wabo tribe as a new stronghold to start shipbuilding and paving the way again, preparing for the war of the other two indigenous tribes.

As for those servants of the Jin family, Lin Bei did not have mercy, and it would be too cheap to kill these people, so these servants of the Jin family will also be treated as slaves, and they will pave roads and cut down trees like those natives, and if there are mineral veins in the future. If you still want to be a miner, you will be serving a prison sentence, and if you can survive in a few decades, you may be able to get away with it.

Everything is going slowly and orderly, and the most important thing at the moment is shipbuilding.

According to the information obtained during the interrogation of the natives, the two tribes of Haka and Fengsi are also in the upper reaches of the river. The Fengsi tribe is about one hundred and twenty miles away from the Wabo tribe, and the Haka tribe is even farther away, almost four hundred miles away from here, and it is obviously impossible to pass through the dense forest, so they can only use boats to transport the sergeants, and in addition, because some natives have fled, it is very likely that the Fengsi and Haka tribes will get the news and want to sneak attack is estimated to be enough. So shipbuilding, building more ships, and transporting more sergeants for a strong attack could ensure victory in the war.

When the last wave of natives was transported on the boat, Wang Laicai found Lin Bei, rubbed his hands and said, "My lord, the villain has something to ask for."

"What?"

Wang Laicai called the sergeant over, and the sergeant was also holding an indigenous woman, and Lin Bei saw this. Suddenly sank his face: "What you are asking for is this indigenous woman?" ”

Wang Laicai stubbornly said: "My lord, this woman is the daughter of the leader of the Wabo tribe. is named Vaylen, the villain liked it at first sight, and asked the adults to let the villain accept him as a concubine. ”

This Vaylun looked no more than twenty-eight years old, that is, about sixteen or seventeen, and compared with other natives, Vaylun had a fair complexion. There is a hidden outline of the Han people, looking at Lin Bei and Wang Laicai at this time, he is silent, his expression is numb, but he has a pretty. No wonder Wang Laicai likes it.

"Wang Laicai, do you remember what Lord Ben said?" Lin Bei wrote slowly.

Wang Laicai knelt on the ground, "My lord, the villain remembers, but the villain really likes this girl, and I hope that the adult will be gracious." ”

"I remember that you still have a wife in your house, and you have a house full of children?"

"Yes, sir."

"Okay, since you like this girl, then I can't stop it." Lin Bei said slowly: "But this woman is of a different race, if you include this woman in the family, you will have to remove the position of the commander of a thousand people, so you still have to accept this woman as a concubine?" ”

LIN BEI ONCE SAID THAT THE SERGEANT SHOULD NOT RAPE THE / YIN WOMAN, WANG LAICAI SHOULD NOT DARE TO DISOBEY, BUT HE WANTED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE LOOPHOLE AND ACCEPT THIS VA YILUN AS A CONCUBINE, WHICH MADE LIN BEI VERY ANGRY, SO IN ORDER TO RESPECT YOU, LIN BEI COULD ONLY USE WANG LAICAI TO OPEN THE KNIFE.

"Adult"

"COME, NOTIFY THE WHOLE ARMY, IMMEDIATELY DEPRIVE WANG LAICAI OF THE POSITION OF COMMANDER OF A THOUSAND HUSBANDS, DEMOTE HIM TO A COMMONER, AND NEVER HIRE HIM, WHO DARES TO ACCEPT A FOREIGN WOMAN AS A CONCUBINE IN THE FUTURE, DEPENDING ON YIN, DON'T BE KILLED!"

Wang Laicai was stunned, but the sergeant did not hold back, and removed the armor from Wang Laicai's body, and then dragged him out of the tent.

Wang Laicai was demoted by Lin Bei to the common people, and then spread throughout the army, Lin Bei reappointed a thousand-commander, this person is called He Ming, originally a centurion, and the sergeants were immediately awe-inspiring, understanding that although Lord Longshen is usually very good, there are some things that cannot be touched.

This matter is just a small wave, there are no ups and downs in the sergeant's feelings, even Wang Laicai did not dare to come to Lin Bei again, the power of the dragon god in Lin Bei is like a god, and his words are holy decrees in Wanghai City.

On the seventeenth day of entering the mountain, An Zhongzhi rushed from Wanghai City to Linjiang City, Linjiang City is the new name of the Wabo tribe, and Lin Bei plans to build a city here in the future as a transit station.

The moment he saw An Zhongzhi, Lin Bei straightened his face: "An Zhongzhi, are you going to intercede for that king?" ”

An Zhongzhi knelt down and bowed: "My lord, my subordinates have no way to teach, my lord forgives my sins, my lord has not killed the king to come to wealth, and my lord is already merciful, and I dare not ask for anything." ”

Lin Bei nodded: "It's good that you understand, although I usually have a good temper, but there are some things that you must not anger me, this matter is one of them, okay, you get up, tell me what you are doing here?" ”

"My lord, I brought a craftsman over to inspect the ore vein, and Zhongzhi may not have seen your lord for a long time, and I miss it very much, so I came to see my lord."

"What about Wanghai City? Master's Principal? ”

"Yes."

Lin Bei nodded, then he didn't ask any more questions, took An Zhong straight to Linjiang City, and talked about his idea, ready to use this Linjiang City as a transit, build more ships, conquer those natives, and wait until the natives are uprooted, you can go upstream, and trade with the Central Plains and foreign countries, An Zhong nodded again and again.

As long as Linjiang City is built, the army will have a base, and then radiate the surrounding area, this is a radish and a pit, and finally it will definitely be able to meet the expectations of Linbei, after conquering the natives, let the natives pave the way in the forest to mine, and the development of Wanghai City will be a thousand miles away, after all, this huge forest will belong to Linbei at that time.

Walking to the river, Lin Bei looked at the river, and suddenly his eyes narrowed, only to see a huge black shadow under the river, slowly coming down, and then the sergeant also found out, and was in an uproar.

An Zhongzhi was shocked and said, "My lord, what is that?" It's so huge, is it a water monster? ”

Lin Bei jumped down and swam towards the black shadow, and before he got close, the black shadow patted the river, causing two huge whirlpools, but he found Lin Bei and turned around and fled.

Lin Bei has seen what the black shadow is at this time, this is a manta ray, that is, commonly known as the manta ray, this fish is flat, the width is greater than the length, it looks a bit like a carpet, the width of this manta ray is more than ten meters, the tail is longer, and it swims through the water, so the black shadow is extremely large, this manta ray is one of the three giant fish in the Mekong River, known as the stingray by later generations, and the other two are the giant catfish and the Siamese giant carp.

In the past few days, Lin Bei has not seen any big fish on this river, so he thought that this river may not be the Mekong, but now when he sees manta rays, Lin Bei can be sure that this big river is the famous Mekong River in later generations. (To be continued......)
