Chapter Thirty-Three: The Dead Man Returns

After Tie Xinyuan received the battle report, he asked Wei Chi Zhuozhuo to take down the Mog tribe markers marked on the map. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After Wei Chi Zhuozhuo took the mark, the map was empty, and it was closely linked to the Hami Kingdom.

Many countries on the map of Nuoda have national borders, such as the Qarakhanid and the Zhula River as their national borders, and there are no national borders east of the Zhula River.

Hami has no national borders, Tie Xinyuan does not like to use national borders to bind Hami to death, in his opinion, the land that does not belong to the rest of the countries is the land of Hami.

Ambition is something that grows.

When ambition is as weak as grass, a small pot is its whole world.

When the grass grows into a small tree, it wants to have a flower garden, and when its ambition has become a forest, its roots buried under the soil want to embrace the whole earth.

In the process of growing a big tree, countless small trees and grasses that have not grown up will become fertilizer and victims of its growth.

Now, the disappearance of the Mogg tribe has given Iron Heart Yuan's ambition an additional piece of land that can absorb nutrients.

Yu Chi Zhuozhuo also took down the symbol of the Changda tribe, Tie Xinyuan glanced up, and sure enough, after the most eye-catching yellow sign there was gone, the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountain was pure green, and it looked much better.

"The evening before yesterday, a cloud with the battalion of dead soldiers had arrived in Poplar City, did not enter the city, received weapons and equipment outside the city, and entered the poplar forest, it seems that they are preparing to sneak into the desert secretly."

"Is General Ah ready?"

"General Ah is already in the desert bunker, and the army is also scattered and hidden in eighteen bunkers, and when they get out of the desert in a cloud, General Ah will follow behind.

Everything is working fine at the moment. ”

Tie Xinyuan pondered for a moment and said: "There are too many variables here in a cloud, I hope that the secret spies in the Dead Soldier Camp can watch a cloud." ”

Wei Chizhuo shook his head and said: "This is not very likely, a cloud has dominated the horse thieves for decades, a dead battalion of six hundred people, he has no reason to control it."

The news coming from the camp of the dead these days is not very good, a cloud has succeeded in seducing many people, and it has gained a foothold there. ”

"Order the Desert First Dock Fort Keeper to hand over this portrait of me to a cloud when it leaves Dock Fort and moves eastward."

Tie Xinyuan took out a picture scroll from the desk, and wrote on it the two lines "The king of Hades told you to die in the third watch, who dares to keep you until dawn", and handed it to Yu Chi Zhuozhuo.

"Besides, Huo'er can come back."

Wei Chi Zhuozhuo answered, and went to work with the portrait.

Tie Xinyuan reopened the letter sent by Zhao Wan from the Great Song Dynasty and read it, took out the portrait of his son, and kissed him heavily, this kid is getting bigger and bigger, and listening to Zhao Wan, he can already run all over the ground.

Thinking of Zhao Wan, who should have a big belly, Tie Xinyuan carefully read Zhao Wan's letter again, and wrote a sentence about her condition in the letter, and did not say a word about the rest.

That's getting angry......

Tie Xinyuan is also worried, Hami is thousands of miles away from Tokyo, and the family letter is completely real.

Even if he is the king of Hami, there is no way to communicate once a month, and the concubine laughs as soon as he rides the red dust, no one knows that it is a litchi to do such a thing, and he has already done it once, and he can't do it a second time, Huo Xian has seriously warned him not to send a fast horse from Hami to Tokyo to send big apricots.

Although the apricots were sent to Tokyo to rot and only the apricot kernels were left, Zhao Wan was very happy, and specially took the rotten apricots to the palace to show off, although they were scolded by Zhao Zhen, both Zhao Wan and Zhao Zhen were actually very happy.

It's nothing more than a matter of feeling......

Wang Anshi is becoming more and more rude now, since the last time Tie Xinyuan saw him, he has become a regular visitor to the City Lord's Mansion.

When I stepped into Tiexinyuan's study, I found a large white paper hanging on the wall, on which were written huge male and female characters, and the two words were full of dense orthography, obviously, these orthographs were used for counting, and the number of orthographs under the male and female characters seemed to be about the same.

And Tie Xinyuan was sweating profusely standing in front of the table and throwing dice, the odd number was male, and the even number was female......

The dice spun a few times around the table, then stopped, again singular.

Wang Anshi lifted the pen and naturally completed a orthography under the male character, and then dropped the brush and said: "The eldest prince has mainly produced?" It depends on the will of heaven to give birth to a boy and a girl, and it may not be appropriate for the king to measure the will of heaven in this way. ”

Of course, Tie Xinyuan knew about the chromosomes, but he couldn't understand this matter with Wang Anshi, so he dropped the dice and said, "I'm flustered, just comfort myself, what's the matter with Mr. today?" ”

Wang Anshi said with a smile: "The old man came today to take a look at the secret reports of the countries in the Western Regions collected by the Hami Espionage Mission. ”

Tie Xinyuan smiled: "Do you need the spy reports of Khitan and Western Xia?" ”

Wang Anshi smiled: "The more the merrier." ”

Tie Xinyuan pointed to the inside of his study and said: "It's in the big blue box, but after Mr. finished reading, don't tell Liu Chu, many things are against his position as a man, I don't want him to come and scold me after satisfying his desire to peep." ”

Wang Anshi frowned and said: "Liu Chu is a moral gentleman, is the king saying that the old man is a villain with a dark heart?" ”

Tie Xinyuan said with a smile: "You and I are both people who are in their positions to seek their own politics, what we value is the result rather than the process, Liu Chu is obviously not, he has a moral purity habit, and it is impossible to expect a person who does not drink the water of the thief spring to understand those secret spies." ”

Wang Anshi laughed and said: "Those who do big things are not informal, and Liu is holding his face." After speaking, he strode into the room, and took Tie Xinyuan's teapot with his hand.

The weather in the afternoon was extremely hot, Wang Anshi sat on the floor with his legs crossed, looking at the various information collected by the spies with relish, and Tie Xinyuan's invitation to him for lunch was mercilessly rejected by him.

In fact, the wooden box contained not only the intelligence collected by the secret agents, but also a lot of historical information recorded by Tie Xinyuan according to his previous memories, which greatly enriched the source of intelligence, and made Wang Anshi smack his tongue at the intelligence collection work of Hami Kingdom.

Wang Anshi is a good student who doesn't understand and asks, for example, he is very fascinated by the affairs of Tianzhu Kingdom, why did Buddhism arise in Tianzhu, and why did those real Tianzhu people not believe in Buddhism?

Instead, they believe in Brahmanism, which divides people into five classes.

Tie Xinyuan naturally couldn't answer this question, in order to satisfy Wang Anshi's curiosity, he went to the cool Da Lei Yin Temple in the back mountain with Wang Anshi to find Master Renbao, he and Brahmanism are enemies, so he naturally knows it clearly.

Coming out of the tunnel of the wolf's den, Tie Xinyuan looked at the jujube red horse, this guy's mane was flying, and under the huge hooves of the horse was stepping on another war horse, and that war horse had been dead for a long time.

The rest of the war horses hid far away, for fear that the jujube red horse would not be happy after killing a war horse, and then anger them.

After asking the groom, I learned that the horse that was killed was an unruly stallion, and the general war horse was in estrus from March to June every year, and basically did not estrus when it was hot from July to August. After the hot days, the war horse will re-estrus until late autumn before entering the period of aestrus.

However, the stallion was disobedient and always sniffed around behind the mare's ass on the hottest days.

This is a trivial matter, but at this time, the pregnant mare will give birth in the autumn, and the foal will be very small, the survival rate is low, and the weaning will not be large, which will affect the quality of the whole herd.

As the king of horses, the jujube red horse naturally wants to teach this black sheep a hard lesson.

The jujube red horse got up and neighed, and the rest of the war horses disappeared in an instant.

Tie Xinyuan saw that the jujube red horse was walking towards him, so he apologized and told Wang Anshi that he couldn't go with him to visit the Living Buddha of Renbao.

Wang Anshi seemed to know the extraordinaryness of the jujube red horse, and did not get close to the wild horse that had just killed a horse, and waved his hand and walked towards the Da Lei Yin Temple at the foot of the mountain.

When passing by a large courtyard hidden in the woods, I found that it was built magnificently, and it was located in a key place in the Hami Kingdom, which should be an important place.

He was tempted to go in, but found that it was full of women, so he could not disturb him, and went on his journey.

Snow mountains, ancient temples, evening bells, returning birds to the forest, and kind old monks make Wang Anshi have a good impression of Da Lei Yin Temple.

If it weren't for the slaves who were struggling to dig Buddha statues on the edge of the cliff, he really thought that this was a peaceful Buddha country.

Not being disturbed by external objects is one of Wang Anshi's major characteristics, and he quickly adjusted his mentality and faced the most mysterious temple in Hami with a playful attitude.

This temple was built together with the Hami Kingdom, and Wang Anshi even found that the establishment of the Hami Kingdom was inextricably linked with this temple.

However, the people of Hami often don't mention this temple very much, and he can feel that Tie Xinyuan is very wary of this temple.

This matter is very normal in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is the consensus of the Great Song Dynasty that the divine power is less than the royal power, but in the Western Regions, this is extremely different.

The first time he stepped into the Da Lei Yin Temple, Wang Anshi wanted to know the reason, as for the Brahmins, what was the matter with him.

There are no novices in the temple, only stout middle-aged monks, which is extremely incommensurate with the grandeur of the temple.

Wang Anshi smiled and saluted a stout monk with a stone lock on his arm: "Please report to Renbao Living Buddha, Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty asks to see him." ”

Tie Xinyuan rode on the back of the jujube red horse, and saw Wang Anshi enter the Da Lei Yin Temple, so he quickly turned to the back door of the Da Lei Yin Temple, jumped off the horse and stepped into the Da Lei Yin Temple with the jujube red horse.

Seven years ago, the Bodhi tree planted by the Living Buddha Sakya on the vein of fire had grown tall, with branches and leaves, and air roots had hung down on the trunk of the thick arm, and it was thought that other Bodhi trees would be born soon.

There is a beautiful wooden platform under the tree, and a futon, there is no one under the shade, there is a hot spring fire vein, it is very comfortable to stay here in winter, and in summer, forget it.

An old monk who had been dead for a long time stood under the tree and arched his hand and said, "Amitabha, I haven't seen the donor for a long time, and I even miss it." ”
