From time to time, people got into other people's tents, took out gold and silver, knives, guns, iron pots, salt, etc., and even rushed into other people's tents, carried other girls' girls, and ran out.
This is the day of stealing, it's the day of stealing!
This almost barbaric custom is still preserved in the Liao State, and Kou Ji doesn't quite understand its purpose.
A few Liao people looked at Kou Ji's tent with bright eyes, but the eight guards guarding the door kept them away.
Song people are wealthy, which is a well-known thing in Liao.
In the eyes of the Liao people, stealing a wave of Song tents is far more worthwhile than stealing a dozen or so Liao tents.
But Kou Ji obviously didn't let go of the tent to let them steal their minds, so they could only watch Kou Ji's tent for an eye addiction.
Kou Ji took advantage of the firelight of the bonfire to tidy up his clothes and walked into the Liao people cheering in front of the bonfire.
The addition of Kou Ji, an alien, calmed the joyful Liao people. After a short silence, the Liao people continued to dance and sing around the bonfire.
Someone reached out and invited Kou Ji to join the dance.
There were also people who looked at Kou Ji with bright eyes, as if they wanted to see through Kou Ji's purpose in joining them.
Kou Ji promised the Liao people's invitation with a bright smile and danced with them.
The dance of the Liao people around the bonfire is not complicated. Kou Ji only followed them twice and he already learned it. Then he accompanied the Liao people to choose a fun.
It wasn't until a young man from the Liao country named Aguni invited Kou Ji to drink and eat meat, Kou Ji stopped and followed him to sit down on the woolen blanket by the campfire.
Aguni took out a jar of spirits and two roasted lamb legs, and invited Kou Ji to eat and drink.
Kou Ji looked at the two roasted lamb legs, feeling a little at a loss.
Agu opened his mouth surrounded by beards, laughed a few times, took a knife from his arms and handed it to Kou Ji.
It was a silver-handled knife, with two words that Kou Ji looked familiar with were engraved on the handle.
That's Goryeo text.
I want to come to this knife, it was captured by Aguni during his battle in Goryeo.
A Gu pinched the small knife he was holding. There were also two words on it. The style of the handle was unique to the Tang Dynasty.
Seeing Kou Ji staring at the knife in his hand, Agu pinched and handed it to Kou Ji a little bit reluctantly, "If you like it, you can use it first, but you can't give it to you."
Kou Ji took the knife from Agu, and measured it carefully. The words on it were a bit vague. Kou Ji couldn't see clearly. He held the knife and asked, "It's precious?"
A Gu nodded earnestly and said, "This is the gift from the first emperor when my dad led the horse for the first emperor."
Kou Ji nodded slowly and said, "That's really precious."
Hearing this, Agu raised his head arrogantly, and said, "Of course, this is my most precious thing."
After saying this, Agu saw that Kou Ji was still groping for the knife, and said seriously: "If you really like it, wait for me to kill a few more enemies on the battlefield, and use their heads to give you from your majesty's hands. Change one. I heard that your Majesty still has three identical ones in his hand.
My dad got this knife. I didn't get it. I can't give it to you. "
Kou Jiyang raised the knife in his hand and laughed in a low voice: "I am already very happy with your heart. But I won't covet your knife because I can make a better one."
When Agu pinched this, he was a little surprised, "Can you make a better knife than this knife?"
Kou Ji nodded seriously.
After hearing this, Agu was overjoyed. He hurriedly chased Kou Ji and asked, "Can you also build a long knife?"
Kou Ji laughed in a low voice: "Naturally..."
Agu grinned and said, "Tomorrow... no no no, the day after tomorrow, can I find you."
He wanted to find Kou Ji tomorrow.
But tomorrow Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu will go out hunting and he will accompany him, so he can only change the time to the day after tomorrow.
"of course can… "
"Great."
"..."
I learned that Kou Ji will make a knife, and it is still a good knife.
Aguni became more enthusiastic.
He also called other friends and introduced Kou Ji to them.
Aguni had no doubts about whether Kou Ji would build a knife.
As a Liao, a traditional Liao, he was accustomed to listening to people and telling the truth, so every word Kou Ji said, he regarded it as the truth.
Under Aguni’s introduction, more and more Liao people knew that Kou Ji would make knives and good knives.
They climbed in front of Kou Ji and invited Kou Ji to drink and eat meat together.
Liao people are very obsessed with knives.
Even though there are countless good knives in their home, they still want more knives.
In their hearts, the knife is the source of their sense of security.
So Kou Ji, a person who can build a good knife, naturally became their target.
Kou Ji stayed with them until late at night before walking to his tent drunk.
When I reached the door of the tent, I fell to the ground.
He drinks a little too much.
The guards guarding the entrance of the tent just wanted to go up and help him. A figure who had been paying attention to Kou Ji quietly appeared in front of Kou Ji, helped him up, and helped him into the tent.
After placing Kou Ji.
He stared at Koj's face with a complex expression.
"Boy, I don't know whether it was right or wrong for the old man to marry your granddaughter. With the support of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, after you return to the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that you will be struggling."
"Hey... I hope the old man and Wang will tell the court for you, it will be useful."
After saying this, Xiang Minzhong helped Kou Ji cover the quilt and left the tent.
The next day.
early morning.
Kou Ji slowly woke up amidst the noise and rubbed his head. Kou Ji opened the tent and saw that the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was wearing a uniform and carrying thousands of people from the Kou Ji tent. Move forward.
This is going to hunt.
Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu had someone bring him a message yesterday to invite him to go hunting together today.
But no one was sent to call him today.
It seems that he has forgotten him, and the agreement to invite him to hunt together.
Kou Ji didn't care about it.
The emperor is like this. When he wants you to use you, he will spoil you on the cusp of his heart; when he doesn't use you, he won't even look at you.
After Kou Ji washed a bit, he simply ate something and started to shake the camp in the camp.
Relying on his status as a foreign envoy, he swayed in the camp, but not many people embarrassed him.
Hanging around in the camp for a day.
Kou Ji carefully understood the weapons used by the Liao people.
Believe in tomorrow.
Aguni would bring a large number of people to him to build swords, guns, swords and halberds. He needs to understand the habits of the Liao people using weapons, and then create a weapon that can satisfy the Liao people.
What is his purpose for doing this, only he knows.
Time flies, and it's evening.
Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu returned with his troops and horses full of loads.
All kinds of mountain birds and beasts were pulled into the camp in carts.
I heard that someone hunted a black bear and was rewarded by the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.
After Kou Ji heard the wind, he wanted to meet the bear hunter.
But he knew that Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu didn't want to see him, so he didn't join in the fun.
After nightfall, the bonfire in the camp was lit again.
The Liao people toasted the prey they had caught during the day, and once again sang and danced to celebrate.
Kou Ji stayed in the tent and did not go out.
"Who?"
"I'm looking for Brother Kou Ji."
"..."
Kou Ji didn't want to go out, but someone found the door.
Kou Ji heard a familiar voice and walked out of the tent slowly.
Then he saw Aguni holding a bear skin, with a warm smile on his face, looking at him.
Kou Ji said unexpectedly: "You are the one who hunted a black bear?"
Agu smiled brightly, and put the bear skin that had just been removed from his hand, and a small knife into Kou Ji's hand.
"Give you!"
Kou Ji held the bear skin and the knife, slightly stunned.
Agu smiled brightly and said, "Today I hunted a bear and got a reward from your majesty. I asked your majesty to ask for a knife for you."
Kou Ji held the bear skin and the knife tightly, and said seriously: "That bear, you should dedicate it to His Majesty the Emperor of Liao, right? What about this bear skin?"
Agu grinned and said: "I told your majesty when I presented the black bear to your majesty, the bear skin will be given to you."
Kou Ji hugged the bear skin, a little speechless.
This kind of practice, in the Song Dynasty, would definitely be classified into the ranks of ignorance, and eventually fell on him, in addition to suppressing, or suppressing.
In the Liao Kingdom, although it was not so serious, it would also be disliked by the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.
Is Agu stupid
Agu is not stupid.
When Kou Ji talked to him last night, he knew that he was not a fool, and he was not a reckless man.
He knew that this action would upset the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, but he did it anyway.
Kou Ji is a little uncomfortable with this heart-and-heart method of making friends.
Seeing Kou Ji holding the bear skin and not talking, Agu smiled and said, "Are we brothers now?"
Kou Ji nodded stiffly.
Agu Nie laughed, he stepped forward and patted Kou Ji's shoulder and said, "When you have a good knife in the future, I can take it out to show off to the people. This is a knife made by my Agu Nie's brother. .
No one else's knives can match. "
Kou Ji smiled. He smelled the faint smell of blood on Aguni's body, and frowned, "Are you injured?"
Agu nodded earnestly and said, "I was scratched by it when he hunted bears during the day."
Kou Ji hesitated and said, "Follow me to the tent, and I will help you to see it."
A Gu stunned for a moment, and questioned: "Do you still know medicine?"
Kou Ji nodded.
Agu squeezed his hand and said, "I didn't expect you to go to the hospital, but you don't need to heal me. When I came, I had already seen the witch doctor in the clan.
The corners of Kou Ji's mouth twitched.
As long as the doctors with "witches", Bacheng is something magical, not only can't help people, but it may be fatal.
"I'll help you see it."
After saying this, before Agu refused, he pulled Agu into the tent.
Kou Ji threw down the bear skin and the knife, causing Agu to take off his clothes.
Aguni knew that Kou Ji was concerned about him and Kou Ji planned to help him, so he did not refuse and took off his coat.
Kou Ji saw a deep paw print on his back.
There was a layer of grass ash sprinkled on it, and traces of blood mixed with grass ash continued to seep out.
Using grass ashes as medicine is probably a method of witch doctors.
Kou Ji asked Agu to sit in the tent. He got out of the tent and ordered the guards outside the tent to get a jar of pear white and a few bottles of wound medicine.
After the guards brought things, he carefully helped Agu clean the wound and began to apply medicine.
Aguni seems to be accustomed to the tossing of grass dust. He is a little unaccustomed to Kou Ji's use of wine to clean his wounds and gold sore medicine.
Finished applying the medicine.
Kou Ji chatted with Agu for a while, and the two of them drank the pear white that was left from cleaning the wound.
Then, Agu slapped his chest and left.
Kou Ji kept pushing Agu to the tent entrance, looking at Agu's back, and sighed: "Don't be too good to me. To me too good. When I cheat you, it's easy to feel guilty."
After getting to know Aguni, Kou Ji has a new understanding of Liao people.
The nobles of the Liao Kingdom were undoubtedly cunning and cruel, and the outstanding one was the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.
The people of Liao are simple, and Kou Ji has nothing to say.
Back in the tent.
Kou Ji put away the bear skin and knife, lay on the bed, and quietly waited for the next day to arrive.
A night passed by.
The next day.
In the wee hours.
Agu pinch is here.
He took Kou Ji to a temporary blacksmith workshop in the camp.
The owner of the workshop is a small official from the Liao country. He has no objection to Kou Ji, Agu Nie and others who want to borrow the blacksmith workshop.
After just reminding some precautions, he left.
After the little staff in the blacksmith's workshop left, the brothers of Aguni came out from all directions.
Carrying broken iron knives, iron pans, and iron helmets, they found Kou Ji.
In Liao, you need to prepare your own iron materials to build things.
Although they are all members of the Leather Chamber Army, in addition to the ordnance that the Leather Chamber Army distributes as usual, they need to prepare their own iron materials to build other ordnance.
It is not that the current Liao State lacks iron.
Under the support of the Song Dynasty for many years, Liao is not short of iron.
Build your own things and bring your own iron materials. This was a habit that was formed when Liao was short of iron in the earliest days.
Kou Ji simply checked the things in the workshop and found that the things he wanted to use were all in the workshop.
After all, it was a blacksmith's workshop with the army of Liao, not a folk workshop, so they were equipped with everything they should be equipped with.
Some special tools that Kou Ji needs to use can also be made from the existing things in the workshop.
After Kou Ji got into the blacksmith's workshop, he never came out again.
Except for Agu Nie, the rest of the Liao people left after putting down the iron material.
Aguni stayed in the workshop to lay hands on Kou Ji.
Kou Ji spent the entire day making tools in the workshop.
I went out to get some horse urine halfway through.
Kou Ji didn't start forging iron until evening.
