Immediately, two soldiers rushed in, and Nie Canjun seemed to point casually, "Drag the man outside and chop them up, don't dirty the tent."
"yes!"
Nie Canjun followed and walked outside.
The person who was dragged out looked at him with a sneer on his face, "Pretend to be killed inside if you want to, and choose outside on purpose?"
Nie Canjun glanced at him, stepped forward to stop Man Bao and the others who were going to search for their luggage without changing his face, saluted Man Bao and said, "Master Zhou, these thieves refused to confess, and brought them along for a long time. If it’s inconvenient, it’s better to kill it.”
Man Bao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Then kill it."
Nie Canjun turned his head to look at the thieves being detained. With a wave of his hand, the two soldiers dragged him out, found a secluded place and chopped off his head. In order not to scare people, they prepared a A piece of tattered clothes, directly wrapped his head and took it away.
"What about the corpse?"
"Leave it for now, and ask your lord later to see if you want to bury it."
"I still have to dig a hole, so I don't need to bury it. Isn't it said that sky burials are popular on the grasslands? Wolves and eagles have to peck at them."
"So much nonsense, take the head back and report back."
When the two came back with their bags, Man Bao and the others hadn't left yet. Nie Canjun moved his footsteps slightly, blocking their sight and said: "Your Excellency, if you have something to do, go and do it first. Just leave it to me here."
Man Bao glanced behind him, his expression didn't change much, he nodded and left.
On the contrary, Bai Erlang, Yin He and Liu Huan turned pale, and even Bai Shan turned stiff.
Zhou Liru also saw the blood on the clothes, but her expression didn't change much, she just felt a little chilly, and she couldn't help asking: "Sister, can you sew your head back if you lost it?"
Man Bao nodded, "Yes, but it doesn't make sense to sew it back when the person is already dead?"
"Is it because of excessive blood loss?" Zhou Liru asked after thinking for a while: "Is it because of the blood vessels on the neck? If there is a way to stop the bleeding before beheading, can it be connected and then drained? Can you live?"
Man Bao: "... the head also needs blood supply to live. If you stop the blood, the head will die, right? If a person loses consciousness, it is brain death, which is basically the same as death."
Zhou Liru was very regretful, "What if the blood is supplied outside the body, then sutured, and then the blood supply is restored?"
Man Bao said: "I also asked the same question when I was a child... I thought about it. Although this method may not be used in the end, it is theoretically possible to sew the head back, or just replace the head."
In Mr. Mo's time, it was possible not in theory, but in practice.
It's a pity that this item requires too many instruments and techniques. Even if she has the brain to learn, she has nowhere to use it, because not only does she need a whole set of tools, but also many assistants to help.
And that whole set of things, including the technology tax, may not be able to buy her even if she is sold.
Man Bao shook his head, temporarily put this thought behind him, and said to Zhou Liru: "Go to his tower to get along well with people, if you have nothing to do, give people a physical examination, and build a good relationship with people..."
Seeing her shaking his head so vigorously, Bai Shan was so frightened that he wanted to reach out to help him up. It was too scary. I just finished talking about the topic of losing his head...
Yin or they didn't expect the aunt and nephew to be so bold, and their focus... so strange, they were silent for a while.
Because of the idea of asking his tower department to help, Man Bao searched out several pills as gifts for Zhou Liru, "They are all good pills, for fever, cough, and cold..."
Zhou Liru asked, "Then what shall we do?"
"Just wait until the next town to buy medicinal materials." As long as there are medicinal materials, why can't they make them
Zhou Liru thought so too.
So he packed all the medicine bottles that Man Bao picked out.
They brought a lot of proprietary medicines before leaving the house, and apart from wound medicines, they had the most pills for various common diseases.
Man Bao and Bai Shan sent them to his tower department.
The people in his tower department have already driven the cattle and sheep to graze. They are expected to stay here for half a month.
So the place where they are stationed has not changed. The patriarch and many clansmen are there. He frowned when he heard that the officers and soldiers five miles away from them were coming again, but he still got up when he thought of the medicinal materials they sent last night. out.
After the two parties met, Man Bao gave generous gifts, in addition to those bottles and cans of medicine, tea, some selected porcelain, and two ingots of ten taels of gold.
The gold is shiny and big, and you can only hold one in each hand.
Because it is the most intuitive, once it is sent up, the patriarch's eyes cannot be moved away.
Man Bao smiled and said: "Patriarch Patriarch, my husband is a scholar and is very interested in how the herdsmen live and graze, so I want to live in your department to experience it. These two ingots of gold are right for them to stay here. I don’t know. Will the patriarch of Ta be willing to make it convenient?"
The patriarch of his tower department wandered for a while, glanced at Jin Zi, moved away, and looked back...
Fart, if it wasn't for the horse thieves hiding in the mountains, they would send people here
but…
His eyes moved back again, others were afraid of them, but he was not.
There are more and more horse thieves in the mountains. In two years time, even tribes like them will have to send things over, otherwise they will not be able to graze well in this area...
The patriarch showed a smile on his face, nodded and said: "We and other towers are very hospitable, and you are from the government, not to mention just staying for a few days, even staying for a year or two is fine. What an honor."
The patriarch looked at the stunned son with a smile, and motioned him to put away the things.
His son was stunned by the gift, and didn't notice his father's eyes for a while, but the patriarch's wife saw it, and immediately stepped forward with a smile to take the tray from Zhou Liru's hand, handed the things to the daughter behind him, and then pulled Zhou Liru's hand. Shou and Man Bao said: "My lord, just don't worry, your husband and niece will be fine if they stay with us, we will treat them as distinguished guests."
Man Bao laughed, then pointed to Yin He and Liu Huan and said, "These are two of my classmates, and they also stay here."
The patriarch's wife nodded repeatedly, indicating that there was no problem.
Two ingots of gold, let alone a few days, even a year is fine.
Grain merchants in Liangzhou city didn't like their cattle, sheep, or furs. They needed money to buy corn and noodles, but in autumn and winter, the prices of cattle, sheep, and furs were very low.
They can buy a lot of corn and noodles with two ingots of gold.
The patriarch naturally thought of this, so his attitude towards Zhou Man and the others softened, but he didn't feel much about the porcelain and medicine bottles that came with him.
It was only when they used the medicine in the medicine bottle that they realized that it was a good thing. Although they could buy it with money, it was so far away from Liangzhou City that they couldn't buy it in time.
