Cheng Zhijie considers himself a person who has seen the world.
He saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood in Liaodong, and he also saw thousands of miles of red land in Shandong and Henan.
He was so hungry that he tasted the taste of two-legged sheep, dug other people's graves, and killed more people than he could count.
He also met many great figures in the world, including the Tang Emperor Li Po, Li Ding'an, Wei Gong Li Mi, and the Zheng Emperor Wang Shichong. They were all cruel and cunning, and they were all rare heroes.
He walked through the sandy Gobi Desert and the rainy Lingnan, interacted with all kinds of people, and formed friendships.
Everyone would invite him to drink with him, and he could drink from a wine glass made of skulls. This was his first time.
Cheng Dabeard is very afraid of death, but he has developed a courage that is not afraid of anything. Now he is listening to the ghost queen telling the origin of the wine glass, but his hands and feet are still cold, and his outlook on life is shattered.
Because these are the skulls of the two previous Queens of Subi.
Subi perished in their hands, so they are Subi's sinners.
The eldest queen at that time was called Subhidakawu Yongqian, and the little queen was called Subhidachi Bengsu.
The two queens are both cowardly kings, who can be said to be extravagant, lustful and extremely cruel.
The eldest queen and the little queen didn't get along, which made Supi even more miserable. Finally, the nobles could no longer tolerate these two women. The eldest queen's subordinates killed Dajia Wu and went to the little queen.
Chibensu was not happy for a few days, and was sold to Langri Lunzan by his subordinates, and Supi perished.
The Supi people hated their queen so much that they chopped their bodies into pieces and threw them into the Supi River, and cursed their souls extremely viciously.
Basically, he wanted them to be trapped in the deepest part of the Subi River forever and never be reincarnated.
Their skulls were also taken off and made into wine glasses, which now become Subishura’s collection...
Cheng Dabeard's eyes were opened again. He felt that this kind of thing could only happen in an uncivilized place like Supi. If such a gruesome story happened in the Central Plains...
Cheng Dabeard really couldn't imagine Li Ding'an drinking from a wine glass made of the skulls of Li Yuan, Wang Shichong, Li Mi and others.
A few years ago, when everyone was crazy about it, no one would have such fantastic ideas.
At most, it would be to confiscate homes and exterminate clans, dig up the ancestral graves of enemies, steam people and eat them, etc...
Okay, so it seems that there is nothing wrong with everyone.
………………
Cheng Dabeard seemed to have gone back to the time when he tasted the two-legged sheep for the first time. He suppressed the discomfort in his heart and held the white-yellow wine glass in his hand as if appreciating it.
He said to Subisura in admiration: "It is really exquisitely made. We have never had such an object."
The queen smiled happily, showing her teeth that were the same color as the wine glass, "If your distinguished guest likes it... then drink a few more glasses..."
She was still reluctant to give her treasure to the messenger, and was very stingy.
The wine brewed by the Supi people is not delicious. It is a craft passed down from the Western Regions and is made from wild fruits.
There is some sweetness, which is in line with the taste of today's Central Plains people, but there is too much sediment, and they also added some spices to make it lose the smell of alcohol.
………………
"I was sent as an envoy under the orders of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to communicate and trade with other countries. Now that I am here, I have heard a lot of rumors. Does that mean that the exchanges between the Supi people and the Tang Dynasty no longer require the approval of the Tubo royal court?
Is it allowed?"
After the greetings had passed, and he had experienced a little bit of the uniqueness of the Supi people, Cheng Dabeard sat up straight, with a solemn face, showing the demeanor of an envoy from the Tang Dynasty.
There was some provocation in his words, but they resonated with the Supi nobles.
A nobleman during the banquet immediately said: "We Supi people never need people from the Yalong tribe to tell us what to do."
Before he finished speaking, someone echoed, "Those blasphemous devils have abandoned Luoche City and hid in their lairs. All those who oppose them are uniting and preparing to destroy them.
They have long been abandoned by the gods, and the descendants of Asura will surely become the masters of the earth."
The Supi nobles became excited. While drinking wine, they cursed the guys from the Yalong tribe.
In fact, when Langri Lunzan was there, he was pretty good to the Supi people. It was precisely because he reused these "outsiders" that he aroused the dissatisfaction of the old nobles of the Yalong tribe, which led to increasingly sharp conflicts.
contradiction.
The nobles were drunk and did not want to talk on a first-come, first-served basis. Cheng Zhijie was not sure what they wanted to express.
For example, some guys actually said that the women of the Yalong tribe are very fertile, but they are a little darker and not as fair as the Supi people...
This made Cheng Zhijie find some familiar feelings, as if he had returned to the Juyi Hall in Wagang Village. Everyone drank from big bowls, ate large pieces of meat, and talked about whatever came to mind. Very few people had any brains.
Compared with these weird Supi nobles, the previous Nang Ni could even be called a wise man...
Cheng Dabeard said to himself, no wonder it was the Yalong tribe that unified Tubo.
Feeling that talking to these nobles was a waste of time, he turned to look at Subishura, "Don't you want to say something, Her Majesty the Queen?"
Queen Subi laughed indifferently, and the gold, gems and other accessories on her body jingled incessantly.
"What else can I say? They have said enough... I just want to know, if Su Pi trades with the Tang Dynasty, what new things will you bring to me?
Those who came before brought fine wine and...tea, and also gave me a fine and sharp dagger. No matter how many people I kill, it doesn't seem to be stained with blood. I like it very much..."
If Li Po were here and heard such words, he would definitely feel the smell of decay coming to his face.
The Supi Kingdom existed for a long time. Even though it was destroyed by Tubo, it still existed in the Tubo Kingdom like a separatist princes.
They have been a country for too long, which makes it impossible for them to be easily assimilated. No matter how wise the king is, there is not much that can be done to them.
But precisely because of this, the Subi aristocratic class has become increasingly decadent under such a long-term control of ruling power.
But Cheng Dabeard was very happy. He didn't want to meet such cunning and cruel kings as Li Mi and Wang Shichong.
Without saying a word, he took off his sword and handed it to the Queen with both hands in embarrassment, "The Tang Dynasty is very rich and has many novelties, but I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts worthy of Her Highness the Queen.
.
This sword is quite good. Even though it is inconspicuous, it is the Thousand Ox Sword carried by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty as a guard.
If Her Royal Highness the Queen does not dislike it, consider it a gift from me."
The Supi people do not have so many rules. Under the gaze of the nobles, the queen reached out and took the sword, held it in front of her and looked at it curiously.
She is obviously a person who has a great desire to collect. If it were just an ordinary sword, she would not be interested in it, but the knives used by the imperial guards of the Tang Dynasty really aroused her interest.
Stroking the leather sheath above, the queen nodded in admiration. She skillfully pressed the spring and drew the sword.
Among the steel knives used by the Qianniu Guards of the Tang Dynasty, part of them was the Huanshou Sword, which was the same as the generals in the army, and the other part was the Yi Dao, which was later called the Hengdao, which was derived from the Huanshou Sword.
In fact, they are not unique to the Qianniu Guard. They are mainly used as sabers for government officials, soldiers patrolling the city, and the like.
The most special thing about the horizontal knife is that due to the advancement of forging technology, it is longer than the Huanshou knife of the Han Dynasty, and it is stronger and sharper.
As for Qianniuwei's ceremonial sword, it is engraved with complicated patterns, and near the handle, the names of the user and the maker are engraved.
Losing, discarding, damaging, etc. the exclusive sword of the Royal Guards is a serious crime. After death, the Thousand Ox Sword will be recovered and will not be left to wander outside.
This is similar to the later embroidered spring knife.
The name Qianniu Sword comes from Qianniu Beishenfu, and there is no explanation such as cook Ding Jieniu.
………………
Looking at the shining blade and the complicated cloud patterns on it, Subi Shura showed a satisfied look. She was very sure that this was the first time a good knife appeared in Subi.
If a second one appears...she will kill that person...
She smiled and said to Cheng Dabeard: "I like this gift you gave me very much, but the gods once told us Supi people that a man's sword and gun are their life. Now that you have given it to me, what will happen to this gift?"
Does it mean you gave your life to me?"
Cheng Dabeard had stayed in Domi for some time and followed the Tibetan people in the highlands to kill, kill and loot, so he was no longer a stranger to the Supi people.
I was just startled by a wine glass...
Now facing Her Royal Highness the Queen's fiery and even unabashed eyes, Cheng Dabeard chuckled, "If Your Highness likes it, then everything is fine.
My life belongs to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. As long as he nods, you can take it if Her Majesty the Queen wants it."
While laughing, he even moved closer, looking at the grease paint on the other person's face, and thought to himself that if these were removed, she might be a beauty?
The Queen was laughing so hard, her laughter and every little movement seemed to be full of encouragement.
So the bearded man became more and more bold. He had slept with the wife of Domi's tribal leader in his tent.
He reached out and grabbed the Queen's cuffs, twisted them a few times, came close to Subishura, and whispered: "There is silk in the Tang Dynasty, and it is smoother than a woman's skin after wearing it. Her Majesty the Queen must wear it in the future."
Just give it a try."
It was so insignificant that the two guards who followed him in and stood guard at the entrance of the palace, ready to help him escape at any time, couldn't bear to see him and turned their heads.
Most of them were thinking in their hearts, if he were in Chang'an, this guy must have died eight hundred times.
Of course, their hands involuntarily clenched the handle of the knife. This was not the Domi people's tent. They were teasing someone else's queen in Subi's palace, and there were so many people watching.
It was really hard for them to imagine how anxious Cheng Dabeard was to do such a thing...
