Immediately two soldiers rushed in, and Nie Canjun seemed to point casually, "Drag the man outside and chop him, don't dirty the tent."
"yes!"
Nie Canjun followed and walked outside.
The person who was dragged out looked at him with a sneer on his face, "You're just pretending to kill him inside, and why did you choose outside?"
Nie Canjun glanced at him, and without changing his expression, he stepped forward to stop Man Bao and the others who were about to search for their luggage. He saluted Man Bao and said, "Master Zhou, these thieves are unwilling to confess.
If it’s inconvenient, it’s better to kill him.”
Man Bao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then kill him."
Nie Canjun turned back to look at the bandit who was being held. With a wave of his hand, the two soldiers dragged him out, found a secluded place and beheaded him. In order not to scare anyone, they prepared a knife in advance.
He wrapped his head in a piece of tattered clothes and took him away.
"What to do with the body?"
"Let it go for now. I'll ask the adults later if I want to bury it."
"You still have to dig a hole, so you don't have to bury it. Isn't it said that everyone on the grassland likes to be buried in the sky? They have to be eaten by wolves and eagles."
"There's so much nonsense, take the head back and return to life."
When the two came back with their baggage, Manbao and the others had not yet left. Nie Canjun moved his steps slightly, blocking their sight, and said, "If you have something to do, sir, go ahead and do it. Just leave it to me."
Man Bao glanced behind him, his expression didn't change much, nodded and left.
On the other hand, Bai Erlang, Yin You and Liu Huan looked a little pale, and even Bai Shan looked a little stiff.
Zhou Liru also saw blood on her clothes, but her expression didn't change much. She just felt a little cold. She couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, can you sew your head back on if it falls off?"
Man Bao nodded, "Okay, but there's no point in sewing the person back together after he's already dead, right?"
"Is it because of excessive blood loss?" Zhou Liru thought for a while and asked: "Is it because of the blood vessels in the neck? If there is a way to stop the bleeding before beheading and cut it off, can it be connected and re-opened, that way?
Can you survive?"
Man Bao: "...The brain also needs blood supply to survive. If you cut off the blood, the brain will die, right? If a person loses consciousness, he is brain dead, which is basically the same as death."
Zhou Liru regretted, "What if the blood is supplied outside the body, then sutured, and the blood supply is restored?"
Man Bao said: "I asked the same question when I was a kid... I thought about it. Although this method may not be used in the end, it is theoretically possible to sew the head back or just replace it with another head."
In Teacher Mo's time, it was not possible in theory, but in practice.
Unfortunately, this requires too many instruments and techniques. Even if she has the brains to learn, there is no place to use it, because not only does it require a complete set of tools, but also the help of many assistants.
And that whole set of things, including the technology tax, may not be available even if you sell her.
Man Bao shook his head and put this idea behind him for the time being, and said to Zhou Liru: "I went to his tower to get along well with people. If nothing happens, I will check my body and build a good relationship with people..."
Seeing her shaking her head so hard, Bai Shan was so frightened that he reached out to help her. It was so scary. He had just finished talking about the topic of his head falling off...
Neither Yin nor they expected that the aunt and nephew would be so bold, and their focus... was so strange, and they were all silent for a while.
Because he wanted to ask Tabu to help, Man Bao rummaged through and found several pills as gifts for Zhou Liru, "They are all useful pills for fever, cough, cold..."
Zhou Liru asked: "Then what should we do?"
"Just wait until you get to the next town and buy the medicinal materials to make it." As long as there are medicinal materials, what can't they do?
Zhou Liru thought the same thing.
So I packed all the medicine bottles that Manbao picked out.
They brought a lot of patent medicines with them before going out. In addition to medicines for injuries, they also had the most pills for various common diseases.
Man Bao and Bai Shan sent them to his tower.
The people from his Tabu tribe have already driven their cattle and sheep to graze. They expect to stay here for half a month. After half a month, the pasture here will be almost eaten, and they will move to the next place.
So the place where they were stationed did not change. The clan leader and many clan members were there. When he heard that the officers and soldiers five miles away from them were coming again, he frowned, but thinking of the medicinal materials they sent last night, he still got up.
Out.
After the two parties met, Manbao presented generous gifts, including bottles of medicine, tea, some selected porcelain, and two ingots and ten taels of gold.
The gold was so bright and so big that one hand could only hold one.
Because it is the most intuitive, once it is served, the patriarch cannot take his eyes away.
Manbao smiled and said: "Chief Ta, my husband is a scholar. He is very interested in how the herdsmen live and graze, so he wants to live in your tribe and experience it. These two gold ingots can be used as their accommodation here. I don't know.
Chief Ta is willing to make it convenient."
The gaze of the clan leader of his Ta tribe wandered for a moment, glanced at Jin Zi, moved away, and looked back again...
Fart, if they hadn't been hiding from horse thieves in the mountains, they would have sent people here?
but……
His eyes moved back. Others were afraid of them, but he was not afraid.
There are more and more horse thieves in the mountains. In the next two years, even tribes like them will have to send things there, otherwise they will not be able to graze properly in this area...
A smile appeared on the patriarch's face, and he nodded: "Our Ta tribe is very hospitable, and you are from the government. Let alone just stay for a few days, you can even stay for a year or two. For us, it is
What a great honor.”
The patriarch glanced at his stunned son with a smile and motioned for him to put the things away.
His son was stunned when he saw the gift. He didn't notice his father's eyes for a moment, but the patriarch's wife saw it. She immediately stepped forward with a smile and took the tray from Zhou Liru's hand. After handing the things to the daughter behind him, she pulled Zhou Liru's hand.
Shou and Manbao said, "Don't worry, sir. Your husband and niece will be fine if they stay with us. We will treat them as distinguished guests."
Manbao laughed, then pointed at Yin You and Liu Huan and said: "These are my two classmates, they will stay here too."
The patriarch's wife nodded repeatedly, indicating that there was no problem.
Two ingots of gold, let alone a few days, they can live for a year.
The grain merchants in Liangzhou City don't like their cattle, sheep, or furs. They need to exchange money to buy corn and flour. But in autumn and winter, the prices of cattle, sheep, and furs are severely reduced.
With two ingots of gold, they could buy a lot of corn and flour.
The clan leader naturally thought of this, so his attitude towards Zhou Man and the others softened, but he didn't feel much about the porcelain and medicine bottles that were brought with him.
When they used the medicine in the medicine bottle later, they realized that this was a good thing. Although they could buy it with money, it was so far away from Liangzhou City that they couldn't buy it in time.
