Chapter Six: Botany is a Useful Science

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 If Yun Chu wants to return to the Tang Dynasty, he must first complete the identity transformation, from a Uighur to a real Tang person. Just this step is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Emperor Taizong himself was not a pure Han, but he transformed the Tang people into

The standards are set extremely high, and transitioning from Han to Han is definitely not something you can do with just a Han face.

Even if Yun Chu becomes a Tang man, the first thing he will face is military service. Yes, the soldiers in the Anxi Army come from various Zichong Prefectures in the Tang Dynasty. Because they are too far away from the Central Plains, the ability to replenish soldiers is very poor.

, Therefore, the four chief historians in the four towns of Anxi have the power to recruit soldiers on the spot. Of course, this recruitment is limited to the Tang Dynasty people!

Being a soldier of the Tang Dynasty does not mean that you will automatically have the conditions to return to the Tang Dynasty. If the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty want to return to the pass at any time, they should not even think about it if they have not achieved more than three ranks of military merit, unless they encounter a change of defense!

There are many white-haired veterans in the four towns of Anxi. The earliest batch of soldiers even participated in the war when Hou Junji destroyed Gaochang. You must know that it was already thirteen years ago.

As for the concept of third-level military merit?

The army attacks the fortified city, wears armor and carries sharp swords, braves arrows and rain, avoids rolling logs and stones, crosses trenches, climbs the city wall, takes the lead in climbing the city, fights bravely, covers the rear troops as they climb the city, the enemy army collapses, and the city is broken - the first meritorious service, the third military merit is awarded

Transfer! The 29th rank of Cexun Wu Sanguan - Deputy Lieutenant of Accompanying Rong!

Yun Chu felt that he might not be able to do it...

In fact, he couldn't do it at all!

Because this promotion path is reserved for the white men of the Tang Dynasty! There is another promotion strategy for officials’ descendants—recommendation!

Yun Chu is not even counted as Bai Ding of the Tang Dynasty. He is a Tiele Uihe, or a Cypriot among the Tiele Uihe people who is not known for his bravery at all!

Thinking about the peeling foot skin will also lead to a correct answer - the proud Tang people don't want him!

Did you return to Chang'an from Qiuci with Selema and Naha?

Yun Chu didn't even bother to think about this assumption. If the number of bandits, horse thieves and shepherds who turned into bandits when they met stray travelers like Yun Chu were less than 3,000, Yun Chu would think that the world was completely peaceful.

Already.

Even the beautiful singers in Kucha City have many difficulties if they want to go to Chang'an.

People all over the world know that the Tang people were lustful. As for beautiful women, no matter what race you are, as long as you are beautiful enough, you can enter Chang'an smoothly and be welcomed by the nobles, rich, officials and common people in Chang'an City.

, and eventually became employees in the service industries such as wine shops, restaurants, brothels, etc. in Chang'an and Luoyang.

Of course, there are also more beautiful women who never arrive in places like Chang'an and Luoyang, and become the women of a certain mountain king or a group of bandits.

As for men - they were either buried in the loess or boiled in a pot by impoverished bandits and bandits...

These are not the biggest obstacles. The biggest obstacle comes from Jiesika, a man who has been in love with Selema for many years. He cannot live without Selema, and similarly, Selema cannot live without him.

The relationship between these two people was the only love pair that Yunchu saw in the Huihe tribe that was more in line with his values.

And because he has grown up, he has become the bond between these two people on their love journey.

After Yunchu had braided the whip, he soaked it in warm butter. After the cowhide was completely soaked in butter, he broke it up and knitted it again. In this way, the treated cowhide whip would not easily crack.

, can be used longer.

Jiesga hurried over carrying a large leg of lamb.

Seeing her lover coming, Selema's eyes, which were teaching Naha a lesson, immediately changed from sharp to soft.

Naha stopped crying when she saw the leg of lamb. The main reason was that the hind leg of lamb that Jiesga brought still had half of the tail. She remembered the taste of her brother's roasted lamb tail oil, which contained a packet of oil in one bite.



"Yunchu, I found a horse for you!" Jiesga handed the leg of lamb to Selema and came to Yunchu's side.

Yun Chu smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Uncle Jiesga, I really need a horse."

"Actually, you are the most promising young man in the tribe. You should have been equipped with a horse a long time ago. But Gesalu disagrees. He always says that you are a child of the devil and do not deserve a horse."

Jiesiga said worried words, but he had a smile on his face. It seemed that as a small village under the command of Gesalu Da Abo, he could already bypass that annoying boss and do some things beyond his capabilities.

It is estimated that this horse came from yesterday's battlefield.

People in the Tang Dynasty liked war horses very much, but the Tang army in Kucha Town had too many war horses, so some of the war horses they didn't like were left to the Uighurs who helped fight.

Jiesika is a Uighur village, which means a warrior captain who can lead a hundred Uighur cavalry.

It's a pity that he can only have power during battles. When there is no war, he still has to listen to the tribe leader Abo Gesalu.

"How did you do it?" Yunchu watched Selema and Naha happily cutting the leg of lamb, and his mood became very good.

It looked like the mother and daughter wanted to eat roast lamb.

"On the battlefield yesterday, I killed a Turk. Don't look at me like that. It was really me who killed him, and I didn't pick up the Tang people's unwanted heads.

My brave appearance was noticed by Pizuddin, who led us to fight against the Turks yesterday, and asked me to join his guard. From now on, I would no longer have to participate in herding and other chores.

I am now a subordinate who is more diligent than Sogdiana! From now on, I can ignore Gesalu, Yunchu, you can also be a subordinate who is more diligent than Sogdiana."

Yunchu glanced at Gesalu's son Meng Saka, who was watching from a distance, shook his head and said: "I'm fine now, but I will have my own ideas in the future. But you, Jiesika, you have to be careful. I heard that than

Su has always been very dissatisfied with his father Porun, and he may not be the next candidate chosen by Porun Khan."

Jiesiga smiled and handed the onions in his pocket to Yun Chu, without answering the question about Bisu Deqin. Since he had surrendered to Bisu Deqin, he basically had no way out.

Yunchu took the onions. They were two red onions. They were very precious. They were brought by camel caravans from the great and small Bolu Kingdom. They should have been given to Jiesga by Bi Sogdian Qin.

Yunchu lit the charcoal and placed Selema and Naha's mutton skewers on the red willow branches evenly around the charcoal, waiting to be roasted.

These muttons have been soaked in salt water. As long as you sprinkle cumin, which is abundant in the Western Regions, it will basically be delicious.

The charcoal fire, blown by the wind, made the mutton skewers sizzle, and at the same time, the scent of cumin also drifted away with the wind.

When Yunchu saw that the mutton skewers were almost done, he took off two and gave them to Naha and Selema to eat first.

The shepherds who were close to Jiesga also took away a few sticks. There wasn't much, so I just had a taste.

Naha ate very selflessly, but Selema had no intention of eating because Meng Saka, the son of Gesalu, came over drooling.

Selema was very afraid that Yunchu would have another conflict with this shameless young man. In the past, whenever he ate delicious food at home, Meng Saka would shamelessly come over and ask for it in the name of his father.

After Yunchu handed a fat enough mutton skewer to Jiesga, he sprinkled some aconite powder on the rest of the mutton skewers to increase the umami flavor of the mutton.

"Yun Chu, Da Abo has an order. The shepherds must respect Tengger and offer your delicacies. Da Apo needs to use it to worship Tengger."

When Meng Saka said this, he was ready to escape at any time. No matter whether it was Jiesika or Yunchu, he could not defeat him. The reason why he hadn't run away yet was entirely because his father Gesalu was with him.

Within sight.

Jiesiga held down Yunchu who was about to stand up and beat Meng Saka and said: "The young eagle will be laughed at by the crows and teased by the sparrows. Yunchu, wait a little longer. When you fully grow into an eagle, you will find out then.

, neither a crow nor a sparrow is worthy of your wings!"

Yun Chu had a gloomy face and did not stand up. He looked up at Meng Saka's purple lips and handed the rest of the mutton skewers to the patient with severe aconitine poisoning who had cyanosis on his lips.

"If it's not enough, come back later. Tengger likes to eat my roasted mutton. This is my honor. I also invite Da Abo to taste the delicious food I cooked. I hope everyone in your tent likes it."

.”

When Meng Saka saw Yunchu bowing his head, he said proudly: "Of course my father knows how to eat, he eats the most every time.

Yunchu, my father said that as long as you obey, he will not touch the people in your tent."

Yun Chu bent down, caressed his chest and saluted, "Yes."

Seeing Meng Saka triumphantly leaving with a large handful of roasted lamb, Jiesga frowned and said, "You can't be so temperamental, right?"

Yunchu held Naha in his arms with tears in her eyes, wiped away her tears, and put the mutton that Selema had just dressed around the charcoal fire again, as if he didn't feel the humiliation at all.

Sika said: "Do you have a chance to become Great Apo?

I mean, will Bi Sogdiqin support you as the great Apo of our two hundred Huihe people?"

Jiesika, who had stopped treating Yunchu as a child a long time ago, shook his head.

"Gesalu is a well-known warrior in our tribe. I am no match against him. At the same time, Porun Khan will not allow Bisogqin to replace one of his men with me."

Yunchu lowered his head and thought for a moment. It stands to reason that Gesalu had eaten delicacies with Caowu added at least ten times. Since Meng Saka had cyanosis symptoms on his face, Gesalu, who had eaten more delicacies,

The poisoning symptoms should be more serious. However, this guy also participated in strenuous activities such as taming wild horses the day before yesterday, so there is nothing wrong with it.

The initial symptoms of aconitum poisoning should be shortness of breath, then coughing, followed by bloody sputum, and then difficulty breathing. After difficulty breathing, cyanosis symptoms will appear due to insufficient oxygen supply in the blood.

After the symptoms of cyanosis appear, it proves that the poison is invading his lungs and will cause rapid breathing. Breathing too quickly will damage the lungs and lead to acute pulmonary edema.

Generally, when acute lung disease occurs, a large amount of anti-inflammatory drugs must be used to reduce inflammation, and sedatives, diuretics, and oxygen must also be injected.

Yunchu thought that Gesalu had no possibility of possessing these things.

Since it was impossible, the only option left for him was to suffocate due to respiratory muscle spasm.
