Chapter 136 Fire and Blood
The strongest hemp rope is not safe, and you have to wear wooden shackles. Zhuang returned to the appearance of heavy armed escort when he first came. He was soaked in a basin of cold water and was questioned.
Zhuang laughed loudly when he saw that the person had been beaten to death by himself.
Xiao Ge asked in Dongyi dialect: "Why did you kill him?"
Zhuang was very excited and spoke a lot, his speaking speed was very fast and his tone was very strange. He had exceeded Xiao Ge's limited Dongyi language level and could not understand it.
In the past, everyone communicated as slowly as possible, but now Zhuang's emotions are out of control, and the Zhou people cannot understand this strangely emphasized Dongyi language. However, the Dongyi slaves seemed to understand, and their expressions were a little melancholy and sad, which was in sharp contrast to the excited Zhuang.
"Speak slowly." Xiao Ge said in Dongyi, but the other party didn't listen at all.
I had to find a translator. Xiao Ge thought that there wasn’t a Dongyi woman who could speak elegantly on the North Bank? He immediately asked Zai to cross the river to find her.
It is also because of the freezing winter, otherwise this round and time would not be so easy.
Yunyao was grinding stones in the air, and at the same time, using the power of heaven and earth to carry the weight to train his arms. After listening to Nan'anzai's description, he said, "You go back first, I'll sort it out and go." He had to sort it out, after all, Yunyao is now in a home girl, her hair is not tidying up, and she is dressed casually.
"Junior sister, come with me."
Soon, Yun Yao, who was dressed up, brought Li to the south bank. The south bank was guarded by heavy troops, and all the slaves were concentrated under the sun and were opposed by soldiers. As long as they had abnormal movements, the soldiers would definitely stab the sword and bleed the slaves.
Zhuang knelt in the frozen mud, and in front of him were distinguished guests of Lu and the king of Xiao. Their leather boots were also covered with mud, and Xiao Ge's shoes were also stained with blood and brains.
The body has not been cleaned up yet, just a piece of rag is simply covered.
"This is Zhu Nu on the North Bank, and like me, is also a baron." Xiao Ge introduced to the two people who met for the first time: "This is a matchmaker from Lu Guolai."
"I've met Ms. Zhu."
"Good good luck to the noble man."
After saying hello, the matchmaker's eyes fell on Li beside Yunyao, and he looked familiar: "Isn't this the beauty of Dongyi given to Mr. Xue? Why is it here?" He was surprised and even suspected that the beauty of Dongyi escaped.
"This is a long story. For some reason, I have been kind to Mr. Xue. Mr. Xue knew that I was alone on the North Bank and was afraid that I would be lonely, so he asked her to accompany me." Yunyao explained this so that he could consider the face of Mr. Xue. It can't be said that Mr. Xue was dumped by the beauty of Dongyi and had nothing to do until he licked the dog until he had nothing. Mr. Xue also wanted to save face.
The matchmaker couldn't help but praise: "Mr. Xue is grateful and is not moved by beauty. This is a role model for us to learn from. When I returned to Lu Kingdom, I will definitely inform Mr. Lu of this matter, so as to warn the king not to indulge in beauty and to learn from him like Mr. Xue."
Yunyao smiled politely, thinking that Fatty Xue owed him a favor. If he told the truth, it would not take long for the princes and countries to know about the ugly appearance of Xue.
Coupled with the golden sentence "There are trees in the mountains and branches in the mountains, and the heart is beautiful and beautiful but I don't know it", Mr. Xue is afraid that he will become the ancestor of the fat dog licking in the future. In the future, any unrequited fat can treat Mr. Xue as their ancestor and worship him every day. Maybe one day Mr. Xue will bless him and really lick him.
"Let's talk about the serious business." "Mr. Zhu, do you know everything?" Xiao Ge turned the topic from the beauty to the murder case.
"I know, you want Li to ask why he killed someone." Yun Yao said, "Junior sister, go and ask."
The orio nodded and asked a question in fluent Dongyi language, like a beautiful oriole making a pleasant sound. Although it doesn't understand, it sounds nice.
There are many dialects, and Li only talks about one of the twelve tribes, but it’s enough to communicate.
Zhuang also answered in Dongyi's words, and his face was very happy. At the same time, he looked at the corpse with disdain and anger. Then he roared at the surrounding people, as if he was about to eat them.
Li's face was changing, sometimes hesitating and sometimes happy.
"The story of this big man must be very touching." Yun Yao said: "You can tell from the expressions of these Dongyi people that they are both sad and heavy. If they are not touching, they will not have such a vivid spontaneous expression from the inside out."
Xiao Ge looked at Yun Yao and thought Yun Yao was very strange. What does the matter between the Dongyi people and their Zhou people have to do with them? "If they stay in the mountains and do not harass us, we will not fight with them, let alone arrest them." Xiao Ge said: "Since they are greedy for our food and do not want to plant them themselves, we will not blame us for sweeping Dongyi. There is nothing to be sympathetic to."
"Facts belong to facts, and sympathy belongs to sympathy, and it does not affect our substitution into the story." Yun Yao said with a smile.
Li asked clearly and told Zhuang's story.
The tribe that Zhuang lives is called Huofang. Their clan worships Chiyou. It is said that after Chiyou's defeat, some of the defeated soldiers fled to the east to settle down. Huofang is the descendant of the defeated soldiers. Zhuang is the bravest warrior in Huofang, and it can even be said to be the bravest warrior in the twelve tribes. He defeated the rhino with bare hands and got the rhino horn and married the daughter of the leader of the Huofang clan, so he is also called the "Rhinoke Husband" and is about to become the next leader of the Huofang clan.
But this autumn, the Western Zhou coalition forces attacked the Dongyi Mountains, and the Huofang tribe was also attacked. During the war, his wife was captured. Zhuang was originally going to rescue him, but found that his wife had been killed by the Zhou people, and the soldiers he killed were one of the murderers. Zhuang did not expect that he would have a chance to take revenge, so he found the opportunity to attack suddenly and smashed his enemy with stones when the guards were not paying attention.
The Dongyi slaves all thought of their lost or killed family members, but they did not have the ability to do so or his luck, so they could not take revenge and could only accept reality.
Li slowly told the whole story, and it turned out that it was a personal grudge and not a disagreement to provoke relations between the two countries.
The collision of different civilizations is always full of blood. Yun Yao's sympathy is sympathy, but he will not resist the war of the Zhou people, because the great man in the future said, "When seeking peace by struggle, peace will exist; when seeking peace by compromise, peace will perish." Civilization exchanges are nothing more than trade and war. Without trade, it is naturally a war, and after fighting, peace will naturally occur.
If the State of Lu did not make up its mind to form a coalition force and did not invite the army of Zhou to join forces to clear the mountain, then the State of Lu and Dongyi would enter a tug-of-war back and forth, and only more people would die.
"This matter is clear. The deceased killed his wife, and he killed the soldiers to take revenge. Now I will sink him into ice water as punishment. And you can choose a satisfactory head from the slaves and take it back." This was agreed before. Xiao Ge is going to travel now, and he hopes that the matchmaker can finish the matter.
The matchmaker said, "Well, I can only say that he did not make divination when he went out. It was God's will. Unexpectedly, when he went on a mission, Xiao Guohui met his enemy and was killed by his enemies, he would not blame others." He knew that he would not be able to survive after being soaked in ice water, and would definitely die of freezing and sickness: "I will pick a good-looking head and take it back to explain." As he said that, his eyes swept across the slave's face, as if he was choosing a lamb to be slaughtered.
