Judging from the performance of this general, he was an upright and reckless warrior, which made Zheng Gu laugh again. The monarch smiled and said: "The king of your country did not feel that he was at a disadvantage, but he generously gave a lot
It’s a gift. You, the general, are afraid of suffering a loss. Do you think that the Bashi Kingdom has lost money, so you want to earn back everything?”
Beidao replied while eating meat: "Yes, a real man has clear grievances, and the accounts should be settled. I really feel that the monarch has suffered a big loss, so I want to help him earn more, and I also thank the monarch for his help!"
The ministers of Zheng Shiguo burst into laughter again. Some people are talking that the envoy sent by Bashi State this time may be the largest envoy in the history of Ba Yuan. If word spread, it will almost become a laughing stock. King Zheng Gu
Then he asked: "I heard from the envoy of the country that the king of your country was seriously ill a few days ago, but he has recovered as before after being treated by a miracle doctor. He is now patrolling the city walls of the country.
But I heard the rumors before, but they can’t be considered rumors at all. The monks from all the sects all know that the queen of your noble lord has sent envoys to each sect to ask for elixirs, and they all want things that can replenish vitality and vitality. It seems that
My life is about to end. This is not a disease. How can I recover in a blink of an eye? I don’t know what the exact situation of Hou Lin is now, and I am very concerned about it. It is rare to find such a generous king in Ba Yuan!"
Beitao put down the meat in his hands, stood up and replied: "Thank you for your concern, Lord. If the Lord says he has recovered, then it means he has really recovered. Some time ago, the subjects were very worried about his health, and the great officials in the court sent envoys for him.
The king asked for a magical elixir. I also wanted to make a contribution, so I went to the mountains with you and your daughter to collect the elixir.
This time, the gift given by the Lord to the King of the Kingdom is a five-flowered ginseng plant that can replenish vitality. It was picked by me and the young lady in the depths of Pengshan Mountain. Since the Lord's health is well, he will
It’s no longer needed. Let me send it to you, the king, to replenish it!
This time the king also specifically asked for a batch of treasures and weapons, saying that they were to be offered to the masters of Wufu Qiu for their training. To tell you the truth, I also studied at Wufu Qiu when I was young. I practiced swordsmanship, and now I finally
I have become a general. Since I am offering something to Wufu Qiu this time, can you allow me to continue escorting it and deliver it to Wufu Qiu myself?"
He diverted the topic to the ordnance to be dedicated to Wufu Qiu, and Lord Gongzheng hurriedly said: "The items that our country is going to offer to Wufu Qiu this time are not limited to this batch of ordnance. We still need to raise all the weapons. Besides, the Bashi Kingdom is sending it.
We also need to inspect the things that come in and select the best ones, so we don’t have to trouble the envoy anymore."
But Beidao insisted: "It's not hard work! I walked such a long way and finally delivered everything. It has to be delivered somewhere, right? It's not easy for the king of our country to prepare these things, so let me go anyway.
Wu Fuqiu paid a visit to Mr. Jiansha and told him his master’s thoughts. Otherwise, what would Mr. Jiansha do?”
King Zheng Gu frowned slightly, then smiled and waved his hand and said: "When I send an envoy to Wufu Qiu, I will convey your kindness to you, so the general will not have to worry about it... It will take some time for the enshrinement to be given.
It will be sent out before. Your Majesty the Ambassador should return to your country as soon as possible. The caravans you brought are still waiting for you to return on the road!"
The impression left by the Beidao family on the kings and ministers of Zheng Shiguo was not only vulgar in words and deeds, but also thick-skinned and shameless, not knowing how to look at eyes, and not very clear-headed. Everyone knew that the batch of ordnance belonged to Zheng Shiguo under the martial arts mound.
It's just a nominal request. It's enough to send it to the capital, but you still insist on sending it to Wufu Qiu. Don't you make enough money along the way? Do you still want to go to Wufu Qiu to sell it for rewards?
Of course, this batch of ordnance has been put into the arsenal of Zheng Shiguo. Everyone knows it well, so why bother to bring it up? It is better to entertain him with wine and meat for a few days and send the envoy back quickly. Don't
No more embarrassing!
…
Of course, Huwa, who was walking on the road, didn't know about Uncle Dao's "embarrassing" deeds in the Zheng family court. He was entrusted by his wife to send the news to the young master in Wufu Qiuzhong, but there was no need to worry.
It's still very early before the agreed time. Now that no one else is bothering him, Huwa can practice hard and realize what he has gained along the way.
To go to Wufuqiu, you have to pass through a red brocade city. This is the southernmost territory of Zhengshi Kingdom, and it was also a pass guarding the border wilderness. Huwa saw many wild red brocade trees while walking in the mountains.
The red brocade flowers did not bloom on the red flowers. If it were in early spring, the red brocade flowers in the mountains would bloom one after another. From a distance, they would look like burning clouds. This is how Hongjin City got its name.
The red brocade tree is an important local crop. Its beautiful red flowers are also a vegetable. Taking it can regulate the stomach and intestines. The root bark can also be used as medicine to treat bruises, strengthen muscles and bones, and replenish vitality. More importantly, red brocade tree
After the brocade tree blooms, it will produce fruit the size of an egg. If the fruit shell is cracked open, the fine seeds inside contain many soft white flocculent fibers, also known as red brocade cotton core.
The red brocade cotton core can be filled into pillows, beddings, and warm clothes. It has a very good effect in keeping out the cold. It is a very important material on this plateau that is close to the wilderness. In addition, the long stamens of the red brocade flower are also dried after they are dried.
A woven fabric that, when worked by skilled hands, can be made into a tapestry as soft and brilliant as clouds.
However, collecting red brocade stamens to weave brocade is a labor-intensive and delicate job. The soft and comfortable brocade is also a precious thing, and its value is no less than silk and satin. It is said that the masters on Wufu Hill like to wear brocade made of red brocade stamens.
Brocade clothing is often refined with special magic power, making the brilliant brocade impervious to water and fire, and even able to defend against ordinary swords and guns.
In most places on Ba Yuan, the best things to keep out the cold in winter are of course the furs of animals and felts woven from wool; the down of waterfowl can also be stuffed or woven to keep out the cold, but it is difficult to collect on a large scale. And in Hong Kong
In the Jincheng area, the fabric is filled with red brocade cotton core and is the most common cold-proof clothing, also known as cotton-padded clothing.
It is said that Leizu, the wife of Emperor Xuanyuan, weaved beautiful silk from the silk spun by spring silkworms, and taught the tribesmen to breed silkworms and weave the silk into various satin fabrics. Yan Zhao, the founding king of Ba, led his tribe into Bayuan.
The technology of silkworm breeding and silk craftsmanship were also brought here. Silk has become the most precious textile, its value far exceeds ordinary linen and kebab, and can often only be worn by nobles.
However, in the area around Hongjin City, another kind of stamen brocade is produced. Although it is not made of silk, it is equally soft and comfortable, and is more precious and rare. The most skillful craftsmen can even weave translucent tulle with red brocade stamens.
.Cotton coats and brocade are both specialties in this area. They are also sold at the market in the capital of the Zheng family. The Beidao family also bought a lot this time.
The flower stamens are nothing more than brocades. The very light cotton core can be used to fill bedding and clothes to keep out the cold. It is not expensive and is plentiful. It is a rare good thing.
The terrain going to Hongjincheng is getting higher and higher, and Huwa has to cross the continuous mountains. Hongjincheng is an open plain area on the plateau. Most of the villages under its jurisdiction are mountain villages, scattered among the mountains.
In a valley suitable for farming. Although the terrain here is high, there are many large plains, so city walls can also be built.
After Huwa entered the jurisdiction of Hongjincheng, he felt a bit similar to the Gaocheng of Xiangshi Kingdom that he passed when he just left the wilderness. It was also a mountainous terrain adjacent to the plateau, with densely populated villages scattered around, connected by roads, and
Beyond the inhabited villages lies a vast expanse of mountains and wilderness.
It’s no wonder Huwa feels this way. He has passed through the Three Kingdoms from the northwest edge of Bayuan to the southwestern edge of Bayuan. If he goes further, he will enter the wilderness again. Huwa also secretly thinks in his heart.
Thinking about it, I’m afraid it hasn’t reached such a far place, right?
Wufu Qiu is actually among the mountain peaks on the edge of the wilderness. The Zongmen area is not a mountain, but includes several peaks adjacent to each other. Its origin is also very strange. The mountain god once introduced it to Huwa in detail.
…
Long before the emergence of the Ba Kingdom, Ba Yuan was once a barbaric wilderness, dotted with some primitive tribal villages. The process of founding the Ba Kingdom by the founding king Yan Zhao was also a process of conquering and integrating these tribes, and continuously establishing tribal alliances. After several
In ten years, the unified Ba Kingdom was finally established, city walls were built, rituals and laws were established, and the tribes in Ba Yuan were led out of the barbaric era of ignorance.
After the establishment of the Ba Kingdom, rebellions and conflicts continued in the Southern Wilderness area. While other places on the Ba Plain were peaceful, trouble always happened here.
This area is located on the borderland plateau, with many valleys and plains suitable for reclamation scattered throughout. Many tribes have surrendered to the Ba Kingdom. However, it is too close to the insurmountable and steep mountains. Since ancient times, many demon clans have lived together with people.
Mixed up.
There are demon clans not only in the mountains, but also on the plains. They have different special talents and flaws. Due to the differences in races, it is difficult to fully integrate them. There are often conflicts between these demon clans and between them and human villages.
A conflict occurs.
Monsters often attack and plunder villages, and even massacre villagers and rob women and children. Some monsters run out of the mountains in groups, kill people, set fire to loot, and then run back to the mountains. Let alone chasing them, they can't even be found.
.In fact, this kind of thing has been happening for thousands of years, but in ancient times there was no country of Pakistan, no one else took care of it, and the news would not spread too far.
After the establishment of the Ba Kingdom, it brought advanced farming and production technologies, which also made the people in this area richer, and more wealth attracted the looting of demon tribes. Not only were there conflicts between tribes, but also in the wilderness.
There were also many big monsters with strong cultivation levels, each causing trouble for one side. At that time, Ba's border army, which was still weak, could not suppress them at all.
After most places in Bayuan were settled, the monarch mobilized an elite military formation, led by the general of the country, Wu Fu, and came to the southern wasteland to clear out the evildoers who were causing trouble. The general of the country held a magic sword and beheaded them.
He killed many tyrannical monsters and expelled many ferocious monster clans into the depths of the wilderness. Later, he led a crowd to build a Hongjin Pass on the edge of the Southern Wilderness. (To be continued...)
