Chapter 62: Whipping
Zhang Huansheng heard that he and Sang Maoshuang jumped out of the ox cart together, and at this time, the yellow-haired, blue-eyed handyman on the side led the ox cart away, and then the two of them walked towards the big tent in the distance under the escort of the team of armored men.
Everywhere in the tribe, you can see servants with a completely different hairstyle from ordinary forest warriors and herdsmen, making yogurt that can be stored for a long time, hulling coarse wheat, and tending to calves and lambs.
Half of them were Vasli people who were called 'servants of nobles' in the forest, and half were Chu people who had been captured for a long time and had become tame.
It can be seen that, in addition to grazing and warfare, most of the dominant Luxi-armed Hutu and Gayin people in the forest country have stopped working.
And from the attitude of the servants who did the heavy manual labor in their place, it can be seen that the Vasli people, who have been servants for generations, still have a status in the forest country above the captured Chu people.
For Zhang Huansheng and Sang Maoshuang, the two businessmen who have the face of a Chu person, but walk in the tribe in a dignified manner, those forest herdsmen and warriors who have nothing to do, or scuffle together to practice their strength, or wipe their guns and knives and maintain their weapons, they don't look at it at all.
On the contrary, those yellow-haired, blue-eyed, or light-skinned Vasleys looked cold, unhappy, but they did not dare to act rashly.
Walking and walking, the accident happened suddenly, dozens of meters away from Zhang Huansheng, an old man wearing a dirty leather robe and a pale beard suddenly put down the milk bucket in his hand, ran straight to his feet, hugged Zhang Huansheng's calves, and asked in Yanhuang dialect vaguely: "Gongzi brocade robe and silk shoes must be my Dachu nobles, I don't know which emperor is in the dynasty today?"
Is the king of the country still young, can the Huang Yuan army be rebuilt, when, when will it be able to smash the Yellow Dragon and restore my Yanhuang great mountains and rivers..."
As he spoke, a strong man with a fleshy face and a beard strode after him, holding a thin leather whip aloof, and whipped it towards the old man viciously.
At the same time, he cursed loudly in the forest dialect.
The leather whip rubbed the bridge of Zhang's nose and cheeks and fell on the old man, tearing open the leather robe, breaking through the flesh and creating blood marks, and the surrounding Vasleyans laughed when they saw this scene.
Seeing such a situation, Sang Maoshuang on the side showed a trace of irrepressible anger on his face, but he was afraid that Zhang would be angry and commit the taboo of the forest people, so he secretly reached out to pull his sleeve and comfort him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand was stretched out, Zhang Huansheng had already snatched the whip from Navasli Han's hand with his backhand and whipped it on his body.
With just one whip, the big man's body was already like a pumpkin that had been hit by a hammer, and many cracks were cracked, and the bones and organs inside were shattered and mixed together, and he collapsed on the ground and flowed out.
The power of this blow made the laughter of all the Vasli people around them stop abruptly like a gelding that suddenly pinched their necks, but it also made the eyes of all the herdsmen and warriors around them stared at Zhang Huansheng's body.
Even the leader of the armored people who was guarding him frowned, and asked in a cold voice in Yanhuang: "Guest, you came to Hakata Qingthorn to do business, how can you kill the servants of our tribe at will, do you want to provoke our Hakata Qingthorn people?" ”
In this situation, Zhang Huansheng immediately relented and apologized, and it was not necessarily easy to lose money and admit his mistakes, so he turned pale and asked in a solemn voice: "This respected armored warrior, among your Hakata Qingthorn tribe, is it more noble to be a brave warrior, or is it a servant who boils milk tea and makes white meat more noble?" ”
"I am the heaviest warrior in the forest, and naturally the warrior is more noble." The leader of the armored men replied without thinking about it.
"It's the same in my family," Zhang said with a smile, "so when a guest with both bravery and wisdom visits, we always warn our lowly servants to know how to respect the warrior."
If those servants wield their weapons in front of the warriors who were visiting without the orders of their masters, we would have killed them before we waited for the guests to do so.
Do you think this is right or wrong? ”
Hearing this, the leader of the armored men was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhang Huansheng and the servants who died under the whip, and did not know how to answer for a while.
Just when he was embarrassed, a crisp voice like a silver bell sounded behind the leader of the armored people, "Atuzhe, you have become the centurion of the tribe, why are you still so clumsy, you really haven't grown."
If your brain is as sharp as the blade in your hand, then Hakata Keichi Daidaiyoshi may be able to go to the holy mountain to get close to the immortal heaven with peace of mind. ”
The one who spoke was a young woman wearing a round red gauze hat, a brocade robe, four hollowed-out gold balls the size of a baby's fist hanging from her waist, her eyebrows were full of heroism, her eyes were like stars, her face was like white jade, and her lips were like grease.
Under her crotch, she rode a huge green wolf with a head and tail of five feet and a shoulder height of more than six feet, accompanied by a tall horse, with a wind towel on her face, only revealing a pair of slender eyes, a young man wearing the clothes of a big Chu Shizi, followed by more than a dozen light armor wolf knights unique to the forest, which made people know that their identity was extraordinary at first sight.
The leader of the armored men turned his head and saw the girl appear, and his face suddenly became even more ugly, but he had to bow slightly, and saluted: "The centurion Atuzhe of Hakata Qingthorn, I salute the pearl of the eastern king and the noble daughter of Saren, who is as majestic as a green mountain." ”
"As the noble daughter of the person in charge of the Great Tent in the Eastern Forest, Saren also pays tribute to the warriors of Hakata Qingthorn, and brings you the blessing of the King of the East." The girl sat down on the wolf and received a salute from him, and then shouted in the forest language with a smile.
When the words landed, everything in his eyes boiled, and countless forest warriors and herdsmen shook the tail of the beast above their heads and sang loudly, "The tomorrow in the sky illuminates the grassland, and the great king prays for the happiness of the brave warrior...";
"I wielded my sword, slew the chieftains, and offered the king's golden helmet and herds of cattle and sheep...";
"The eagles in the sky are flying, the fish in the river are swimming, and the sound of turning the prayer wheel is heard from the big tent at the foot of the eastern foot of the holy mountain...", expressing his gratitude and reverence to the king of the east.
In the rough but melodious singing, Saren drove the giant wolf to jump and landed beside Atuzhe and Zhang Huansheng, smiled, looked at Zhang Huansheng and said in Yanhuang: "Young merchant, you are a guest of Hakata Qingjiao, according to forest tradition, servants who are disrespectful to you should be tied to a horsetail and dragged to death, so it is not a big deal for you to kill him."
It's just that no matter how damned the servant is, he is a slave of the Hakata Keinthorn tribe after all, so the executioner must be a Hakata Keinthorn person, not you as a guest, understand? ”
