Chapter 168 Door God Door God
Although the sun has not set yet, the light in the woods has become a little dim, so Gao Bufan ordered people to light a fire for lighting. The most indispensable thing in the woods is wood for burning fires, and of course there is no shortage of wild animals.
The ecological environment more than fourteen hundred years ago was not comparable to that of today. Wild animals still dominated in the wild, and ordinary people could not even survive in the wild without the collective.
This forest covers an area of several miles. It is not too big, but it is not too small either. In addition, it is close to the river, so it has become a logical habitat for beasts of all sizes. Now this forest is occupied by thousands of humans, so it is very large.
Some of the wild beasts were scared away, but some remained, and the ones that remained were all ferocious beasts.
In the dark woods, ordinary humans are no match for ferocious beasts. Lighting a fire can effectively deter them. However, firelight can deter ferocious beasts, but it cannot deter a group of hungry people.
The leader of the group with the largest number of people came to the door first, but the other party didn't seem to want to bully the smaller ones, so two people came, one older and one younger.
Both men are tall, the older one is about thirty or forty years old, over 1.8 meters tall, with a sallow complexion, but his eyes are bright and clear, and he has a mouth like a capsized boat.
It is commonly known as "a gentleman's mouth". This kind of people are generally decent. Of course, nothing is absolute, and there are many sanctimonious hypocrites in this world.
The other man...maybe can't be called a man, because although the other man is two points taller than the big yellow-faced man, he looks very young, like a tall man. He hasn't even grown a beard yet, so he probably won't.
He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a high nose, wide mouth and silky eyebrows. He was holding a bright silver iron gun, which probably weighed thirty or forty kilograms, which showed that his arm strength was quite strong.
The boy looked proud and followed the yellow-faced man step by step. As soon as he entered the camp, he looked provocatively at Pei Xingyan, who was also the tallest. The latter snorted coldly and raised his eyebrows tit for tat.
The yellow-faced man was carrying a pair of yellow maces. He didn't know what material they were made of, and they were probably not light in weight. However, the man was carrying them as if they were nothing. He first glanced at Pei Xingyan, and then his eyes fell on Gao Bufan.
, cupped his hands and said, "May I ask if this is Gao Bufan and Gao Changqing from the Bohai Gao family?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Gao Bufan's eyes, and he nodded and said, "I'm the one who would like to ask you how to call this general?"
The yellow-faced man said calmly: "I don't dare to take it. I am just General You Yiwei here to protect my subordinate Qin Qiong, named Shubao, from Licheng, Qizhou."
Gao Bufan couldn't help but tremble again and again. I'm going to see the door god!
Qin Qiong and Yu Chi were two fierce generals during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. They were peerless warriors under Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. They were one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. Legend has it that these two men looked mighty and had fought countless battles in their lives, so they had extremely evil spirits and strong spirits.
Avoid all ghosts you see.
Legend has it that once Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty fell asleep while playing chess with Wei Zheng, and killed an old dragon in his dream. As a result, the old dragon's ghost lingered and came to the palace every day to cause trouble, which made Emperor Taizong uneasy. So Wei Zheng suggested that Qin Qiong and Yuchi
The Duke guarded the palace gate, and sure enough, Lao Long did not dare to come. Tang Taizong felt sorry for the hard work of Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong guarding the palace gate at night, so he ordered a painter to draw their portraits and paste them on the palace gate. The result was equally effective.
After this incident spread, people all over the world followed suit and posted portraits of these two brothers outside their doors, which gradually became a custom. Qin Shubao and Wei Jingde became household gods. Until more than 1,400 years later, in modern China,
People still maintain the custom of sticking these two brothers on their doors to ward off evil spirits.
Qin Qiong didn't know what Gao Bufan was thinking at the moment. Seeing the other party looking at her strangely, Qin Qiong couldn't help but secretly be wary. She frowned and said, "I heard that Mr. Gao and his party brought more than three hundred stones of grain, so a certain family came here to ask for some."
One hundred and fifty dan, I hope Mr. Gao will donate generously for the sake of all of us being Sui people." After saying this, he stared at Gao Bufan without blinking.
As soon as these words came out, Pei Xingyan and others all darkened their faces. Although Qin Qiong said it politely, his attitude was actually very tough. He would take away half of the food as soon as he opened his mouth. It was quite arrogant. If Gao Bufan said "no", he would just
I'm afraid he's about to grab it.
Gao Bufan had long expected that this door god might be coming with bad intentions, so he was not surprised. What was surprising was that the other party actually told him exactly how much food he had brought. It was obvious that there must be a "two or five boys" in his team.
"Yes.
"How did General Qin know how much food I brought?" Gao Bufan asked with a smile.
Before Qin Qiong could answer, the young man next to him said impatiently: "You don't care how we found out, please be happy, give it to us or not?"
Gao Bufan's eyes turned cold and he said calmly: "Didn't your mother teach you that if you ask for something from others, you must first be polite to them?"
The young man raised the silver gun in his hand as if to demonstrate, and said with a ferocious smile: "My mother has indeed never taught me, but don't try to teach me a lesson with a condescending tone. I'm not begging you for food now, so I dare not give it to you.
Just give it a try.”
Pei Xingyan said angrily: "What a big tone. If I don't teach you to be good today, you don't even know how many eyes Lord Ma has." After saying this, Ma Shan was ready to prick him.
Gao Bufan stretched out his hand to stop you and said calmly: "Don't be impulsive. You are dignified and prepared. Why do you have to be like a kid with a yellow mouth? It is such an insult to your identity."
Pei Xingyan also thought about it. A kid like this would be defeated even if he won. However, the young man opposite him did not appreciate it and curled his lips and said: "You are obviously about the same age as me, why are you pretending to be an adult? Bah, what are you doing?
They are just weaklings who bully the weak and fear the strong."
This boy had such a bad mouth that he scolded both Gao Bufan and Pei Xingyan in one sentence. Dou Xian's mother was so angry that she said, "You brat, keep your mouth clean. Believe it or not, I will slap you."
When the young man saw Dou Xian Niang, he blushed and snorted coldly: "A good man doesn't fight with women, I... I won't fight with you, I'll just go and cool off."
Gao Bufan frowned and suddenly glanced at the three masters and servants of Li Yi who were hiding in the distance and gloating about his misfortune. He suddenly understood that this guy was probably behind it. No wonder Qin Qiong knew that he had brought three hundred shi of food.
Li Yi must have said other bad things, otherwise this young man would not have just opened his mouth and scolded Pei Xingyan for being a bully and afraid of the strong.
Although Gao Bufan's body was only about ten years old, his body contained a soul that was several dozen years old. He was too lazy to argue with a little kid. His eyes fell on Qin Qiong and he said calmly: "Is this what General Qin means?"
Qin Qiong nodded and said: "Shixin is young and speaks bluntly, which is not pleasant to listen to. But he is a brother of a certain family, and everyone in that family recognizes what he says."
Gao Bufan said calmly: "In this case, let me tell you frankly. Originally, a few stones of food were not worth anything, but the brothers paid for it with their lives. If General Qin wants it, ask my brothers
No answer!"
Pei Xingyan said with a ferocious smile: "Dream!"
"Yes, don't even think about it. Why should I give the food that I worked so hard with my life and blood to others for free?"
"Yes, I won't agree. If you have the guts, come and give it a try." The soldiers with ferocious expressions drew out their weapons and surrounded Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin. Gao Bufan chopped them into pieces with a single order.
Posture.
