Chinese dining table

Chapter 756
Xue Changfeng stood on the streets of Luoyang, not knowing where he should go.

Today's Xue Changfeng no longer has the slightest elegance of the past. After five years of living in Yazhou facing the sea and blooming in spring, he has turned into a bald, tattooed, dark-faced Nanman.

These years, he has lived a happy and carefree life in Yazhou for a while. If there is no sudden plague in Yazhou, he still wants to stay there.

Dealing with the savages on the sea is actually not bad. Although there is less etiquette, but after getting along for a long time, it is easy to become their leader.

The main reason is that Xue Changfeng is a person who is very good at summing up experience and lessons. When he started hanging out with wild men, fishing was his weakness and he could only do the most tiring work.

Slowly, he learned a little from the savage who can catch crabs, from the savage who can catch fish, and then from the female savage who dug razor clams to catch the sea, and he soon became a savage who could do everything.

In addition, he can also cook all kinds of food on land, and within two years, he became the leader of that wild group.

This time he entered Luoyang because the local officials of Yazhou hoped that he could be a special product of Yazhou, and the Savage King would participate in the high-end activities of the emperor Fengchan Taishan.

When the emperor needs all nations to come to court, being a savage leader is actually a very good thing. The court provides food and drink, and spends money to help him prepare gifts for the emperor. When he returns home, the government still pays for it. Many rewards.

The only inconvenient thing is that he can't say that he is a savage in Yazhou, he should say that he is a savage in the south, or a savage king. Because he admires the Tang emperor, he came all the way to Luoyang, just to kowtow to the Tang emperor.

In fact, this is not Honglu Temple, the officials of the Ministry of Rites cheated.

The main reason is that it is too difficult to gather together a ceremony for His Majesty the emperor to come to court.

In recent years, there are fewer and fewer tribes around the Tang Dynasty who can speak the human language. Originally, Liaodong could gather more than a dozen vassal states. The Khitan tribe under the Dahe Alliance, the Dahe Alliance originally had eight tribes, which belonged to the Songmo Governor's Mansion, because after Xue Rengui left Yingzhou, there was only one distant Khitan tribe left .

As for Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, the Pearl Kingdom of these vassal states, few people mention it now.

The same is true for the Turks in the north. Originally, there were ten royal tribes in the Turkic tribe, but now there are only three tribes left. Moreover, just these three, if Honglu Temple did not try their best to dissuade them, they would have already Gone from the annals of history.

There are only some vassal states in the Western Regions... However, it is hard to describe the current situation of these vassal states.

The gunpowder workshop under the Datang Craftsman produced 26 catties of gunpowder a year, of which 17 catties were consumed by the Anxi Army. , belonged to absolute secrets, which led to the fact that although there were still some vassal states in the Western Regions, many of these vassal states existed in name only.

As for the Guangzhou Governor's Mansion, and even the Cochin Governor's Mansion, there are many savages and barbarians under his rule. When His Majesty the Emperor needs the great ceremony of all nations coming to court, there are many articles to do.

The savage tribe, although many grass-headed kings can be selected from the barbarian tribe to fool people, it is a pity that these savages can't speak Tang dialect at all, let alone understand the etiquette of the Tang people.

A savage like Xue Changfeng who can speak the official dialect of the Tang Dynasty and knows the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty is a rare treasure among savages even under the rule of Yazhou.

Therefore, this time, Lingnan Road provided Xue Changfeng with a lot of Annan savages, let him be the leader, so that he could answer the emperor's questions, participate in the emperor's banquet, and participate in the emperor's conferring on Mount Tai, so that he could make up the number as the king of the vassal state.

Why did such a good thing happen to Xue Changfeng, not only because he can speak Tang dialect and know the etiquette of Tang people, the most important thing is that the officials of Lingnan Road don’t like to see Feng An’s family enjoying the glory of Fengchan Taishan alone in Lingnan .

In short, Xue Changfeng, who originally planned to enjoy the sun, the beach, and a free life in Yazhou, to avoid being exploited by others, has now come to Luoyang and lives in the Honglu Temple in Luoyang. The etiquette of the Tang Dynasty.

Xue Changfeng is without a doubt the quickest and best savage, so he got a two-day vacation to take a good tour of the capital of the Tang Dynasty, which is called the capital of the gods.

Accompanied by two small officials from Honglu Temple, Xue Changfeng almost finished his tour of Luoyang. Although these two guys seemed to be accompanying him, in fact, they did not spend a penny for Xue Changfeng, the savage king, on this journey. Well, when they went out, these two guys had received a bag of money from the boss.

When passing by Baihualou, Xue Changfeng saw a graffiti that seemed to be randomly drawn on the blue bricks at the corner.

After looking at it for a while, Xue Changfeng added a few strokes to the graffiti while the two clerks were drinking flowers and drinks.

Although Yunchu is not a good person, Xue Changfeng still has many friends under Yunchu's command, and he also wants to know the situation of his old friends in recent years.

When Xue Changfeng was wandering in the Luoyang market with his hands behind his back, a luxurious and excessive carriage drove past him under the guard of a group of Tubo people.

When the carriage was less than twenty steps away, the carriage stopped, and a trembling voice sounded behind him: "Brother Changfeng."

Hearing this appellation, Xue Changfeng was indifferent, and grabbed a small gourd on the side of the road with one hand, showing great interest.

"Brother Changfeng. Is that you?"

Grabbing his arm with one hand, Xue Changfeng turned his head in surprise, and looked at He Lan Minzhi who was so excited that he couldn't control himself with a pair of ignorant eyes.

"Cuckoo, Gagu..."

A series of words that even Xue Changfeng himself could not understand, spewed out of his mouth like a cannonball.

He Lan Minzhi was unmoved, looked at Xue Changfeng and said, "Are you alive?"

"Brother Agagu..."

"You're not dead, are you?"

He Lanmin's eyes gradually became manic, and the hands holding Xue Changfeng's arm became extremely powerful in an instant.

"Young master, King Aga Gong is a guest of Honglu Temple, so you can't be so rude."

Just when Xue Changfeng was pinched and yelled by He Lanminzhi, the two little officials who accompanied Xue Changfeng finally came over.

"You said he was the vassal king of Datang?"

"Exactly, he comes from the Annan Governor's Mansion. There are more than [-] tribesmen in the Annan jungle, and he is a very powerful local vassal king."

One of He Lanmin tore off the silk shirt from Xue Changfeng's body, revealing his dark chest. Seeing that there was no scar on his chest as he expected, he grabbed the silk shirt like a monkey, just like Nanman Zhuan who was crowned with a monkey. Turning around, he began to check his back again.

There was no wound on the back that He Lanmin had expected, so he immediately let go of Xue Changfeng's hand, pinched Xue Changfeng's throat and roared: "How dare you look like my brother Changfeng even if you are a monkey."

Xue Changfeng grabbed He Lanminzhi's thick arms with both hands, and with the help of two Honglu Temple officials, he finally broke free from He Lanminzhi's shackles.

Seeing that He Lanmin was a little dazed, the clerk quickly dragged Xue Changfeng into the alley.

After He Lanminzhi was dazed for a long time, he finally returned to the carriage, and Dunzhu immediately asked, "Who did you see?"

He Lanmin said indifferently: "A person who is already dead."

Dunzhu said seriously: "Since he is a dead person, he shouldn't be alive for you to see."

He Lanminzhi narrowed his eyes, shook his head and said, "I don't think I will admit my mistake, especially his back view, I absolutely cannot admit my mistake, but when he turned around, I found that I still admit my mistake gone."

Dunzhu said: "Since my brother will not admit his mistake, it means that the person is not dead. In the past, when we were in Yangtong, some monks said that they would never die and would only use another new body to live on.

I didn't believe it, so I killed a few monks who claimed to be immortal. As a result, they really died and never came back to life.

Brother should have brought this person back just now, whether it is or not, as long as he is tortured, he will figure it out. "

He Lan Minzhi gritted his teeth and said, "My heart is very confused. I hope he lives, but I don't want him to live. Whether he lives or dies, it's not good for me."

"Then kill him! Lausanne, find that person now and kill him."

Dunzhu yelled at the Tubo man next to the carriage, and the Tubo man immediately led seven or eight people in pursuit along the direction Xue Changfeng was running.

He Lanmin's headache was about to split, and he didn't know whether to stop Dunzhu's behavior. After a while, he screamed and fell into Dunzhu's arms. The scenes about Xue Changfeng in the past kept replaying in his mind. Especially when Xue Changfeng grabbed the door with his blood-stained hands and slowly closed it, it stirred in He Lanminzhi's mind like an awl.

"Brother Changfeng—" He Lanmin roared angrily, and passed out.

Xue Changfeng got rid of the two stupid little officials, walked quickly in the alley, and occasionally saw familiar graffiti at the corner, he followed the signs on the graffiti, walked through one market after another, and finally came to a teahouse the door.

Stepping into the teahouse, looking around the teahouse, I saw a fat woman behind the counter to settle accounts.

He went straight to this woman and said, "Mrs. Qian, something happened to me."

Aunt Qian had seen this Nanman a long time ago, but she was too lazy to entertain her. When she heard that Nanman called her Mrs. Qian, she was stunned for a moment, and took a closer look at Xue Changfeng, but she didn't recognize her.

"If you have an accident, it's none of my business. If you have money, you can drink tea and listen to books. If you don't have money, get out of here immediately."

Xue Changfeng scratched his bald head and smiled wryly, "I'm Xue Changfeng, Xue Changfeng from Yazhou."

Aunt Qian was stunned for a moment, took a closer look at Xue Changfeng, and led him to the backyard, and jumped into the well without hesitation. Xue Changfeng followed suit, and followed Aunt Qian through the dark underground for a cup of tea. After a period of time, I opened another flap and came to a small courtyard.

Seeing the four carpenters putting down their work and slowly approaching him, Xue Changfeng spread his hands and said, "I really am."

Aunt Qian waved her hand, and the four strong men stepped back immediately, and resumed their carpentry work.

Aunt Qian brought Xue Changfeng into the house, rubbing a teapot for a long time before pouring Xue Changfeng a cup of tea.

Xue Changfeng smiled and said: "I am Xue Changfeng, you don't need to use the mandarin duck pot to test me."

Aunt Qian said: "As far as I know, Xue Changfeng died in Yazhou."

Xue Changfeng smiled wryly and said, "I didn't die, I didn't die. I just went fishing with the savages and was taken to another place by the wind and waves, so that I lost contact with my brothers."

Aunt Qian looked at Xue Changfeng and said: "Since you have feigned death and left us, why did you come back again, Xue Changfeng, brothers thought you were dead, and the Lord specially presided over the sacrifice for you and gave up Yazhou. Now, you You’re back again, what’s your face when you see your old brother who was born and died with you in the past?”

Xue Changfeng asked in surprise: "Why, after such a long time, haven't all the old brothers died?"

Aunt Qian was cooing and laughing like an owl, and at some point a spike appeared from her sleeve, stabbing at Xue Changfeng silently.
