Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 158: Accidents
After the Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty spent more than two months recuperating in Fuzhou, the officials from Chang'an City who came to greet the envoy to the Tang Dynasty finally arrived. Three days later, accompanied by officials, the Japanese sent Tang envoys, the officials, warriors and monks who had been accompanying them into ten carriages to head towards the capital Chang'an.
Just behind their motorcade was another luxurious carriage. Originally, it was somewhat suspicious that a carriage followed the convoy of foreign envoys. Although the world has been settled, there have been incidents of foreign missions being looted by bandits. The **** who escorted the Tang envoy to investigate, the carriage that followed the convoy had the mark of the Surabaya on it.
According to a blind old man in the carriage, they were relatives of the two owners of the Surabaya. This time they returned to the land to visit relatives, and they were also going to Chang'an City. Worrying about being looted by bandits along the way, he followed behind the convoy of foreign missions. Thinking about following the convoy, there is no need to worry about bandits with the protection of the official army.
I heard that the carriage was from the Sishui, and the people in the carriage were relatives of the two owners of the Sishui. The officials who accompanied the Tang envoy immediately became more talkative. He personally came to visit a few people in the carriage, and he didn't know what was in the official's hands. The adult actually brought the carriage to the convoy. After hearing the identities of the people on the carriage, the Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty had no objection.
The two envoys sent to Tang also sent people to contact several people on the carriage, and asked them to return to the Surabaya and discuss with the two owners, Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan, to choose an auspicious day. The Japanese country will send an envoy to visit the island. . Although the Japanese country is light on business, there are no mineral resources in the country. I also want to contact this amazingly large company to help them buy in Persia and Datang. Except for the big business of the Surabaya, I can't find any other merchants.
The people on this Surabaya carriage are naturally Wu Mian, Gui Bugui, and those two monsters. After they got into the convoy, with the signboard of the Surabaya, the old guy quickly got mixed up in the convoy. A familiar face. On the day they entered the convoy, they drove their carriage to the back of the carriage containing the monks.
Kukai, Guangxiao and Guan Wuming were all in this carriage. After two months of recuperation, the monk Guangxiao looked no different from normal people. After seeing Wu Mian and the carriage that did not return, his face was somewhat ugly. However, he still forced his face to laugh, and had a few polite words with Wu Mian and Gui Bugui.
That night, their motorcade drove to a county near Fuzhou to rest. Several inns in the county have been booked by officials before. The biggest and best is naturally to invite the Tang envoys to live there. Because Wu Mian and Gui Bugui are named Sishui, they are also arranged in this inn. . Because Kukai served as an interpreter, their monks also lived in the same inn.
During dinner, the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty were invited by the local officials to the county government for a banquet. Wu Mian and Gui Bu Gui, relying on the name of the Sishui, were also dragged to the banquet together. Because the Tang Dynasty believed in Buddhism at this time, the monks in the motorcade also entered the county office together. Fortunately, the Japanese monks did not abstain from drinking alcohol. Except for Guangxiao and Guan Wuming to observe the precepts, other monks and the Tang Dynasty used the same meal.
After three rounds of drinking, the local county magistrate also brought in several local singers to sing and dance to add to the fun. It's just that the local area is not as big as Chang'an and Luoyang, and there are several singers who are also vulgar fans in the countryside. But even so, it still made the Japanese envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty, who were not fully civilized, mesmerized. Thanks to the wine, they even got up and danced with the singers.
Looking at the appearance of sending Tang envoys, Xiao Ren San pouted in disapproval, and said to Kong Hai, who was sitting opposite: "Monk, is there no woman in the Japanese country? Look at the way you sent Tang envoys, such things can follow along. Singing and dancing, then when you arrive in the capital and see the beautiful sisters in the prostitutes in the capital, do you want to cut your stomach and die on the spot?"
"One place has one custom. When the Japanese went to a banquet, they also danced while drinking. A few adults think they miss their hometown." The Tang envoy continued to say, "It's getting late, so the banquet even ended after singing and dancing?"
While Monk Kukai was talking, a few servants came over to clean up the leftover wine on the table. One of the servants walked over to the tables of several monks, and while replacing the residual wine, he looked at the sumptuous dishes on the wine table greedily. He swallowed at a boiled stewed chicken, and when everyone didn't care about him, he quickly dipped his finger in the soup, then lowered his head and put the finger in his mouth, licking it clean. the soup above.
The monk Konghai saw the little servant's movements, and after making a face at him, he tore off the chicken leg and stuffed it into the little servant's robe sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Take it back and eat it, don't let others see it. Come. Go, come back after eating and have..."
The little servant didn't expect that the monk would give him chicken legs, and his face turned red. After seeing that his companions didn't notice him, he turned around and walked out with a tray containing an empty wine bottle. Looking at the back of the servant, Monk Kongkai smiled slightly and said to Guangxiao who was beside him: "He also gave me a chicken leg like this back then, but now seeing this child, it seems like he saw me before."
Guang Xiao followed up with a smile, but did not answer. His two eyes were always on the servants who came in and out, as if an assassin would jump out of them at any time, which was not good for Monk Kongkai. Although he couldn't see Gui Bugui on the opposite side, he also guessed Guangxiao's expression. After hey hey, the old guy said, "Guangxiao, what promise did you get from Xu Fu? It's the first time I've known you for so many years. I've seen you like this once. The alchemist doesn't have a door, and it's impossible for you to go back to the door."
Hearing the words of Guibugui, Guangxiao laughed dryly and said, "Senior Brother Gui is really good at joking, I just fell in love with Kong Hai. Where is the promise of Dafangshi..."
While Guang Xiao was talking, the servant boy who had just gone out with the drumsticks came back to Monk Kukai with a tray. The corners of this little servant's mouth were full of oil, but after he devoured the chicken legs just now, he came back to ask for meat.
Monk Kukai smiled slightly, and took out a handkerchief from his sleeve. After wiping the child's mouth, he said, "You must learn to wipe your mouth when you steal it. You hide under the table, and I'll take the whole chicken down. You slowly..." Before he could finish his words, Kong Hai suddenly realized that The appearance of this teenage servant became strange, looking at him as if he was grinning.
"What's so good about chicken... I want to eat you!" The boy suddenly roared, and then he opened his mouth. The mouth of this ten-year-old child was cracked to the back of his head, full of sharp-edged teeth, and he bit down on the head of Monk Kongkai.
Seeing that this bite was about to bite into the head of Monk Kongkai, Guan Wuming, who was sitting next to him, suddenly got up and pinched the servant's neck. With the force in his hands, he actually tore off the little servant's head from his neck and threw it on the other side of the servant. I was so frightened that the half-eldest boy screamed...
Because the boy just turned his back to everyone, except for Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, who were facing him, no one else noticed any changes in him. After his head was ripped off by Wuming, he instantly changed back to the little servant who just stole his mouth and ate.
Seeing Guan Wuming's sudden killer killing the servant, everyone present was stunned and stunned. In the end, it was the local magistrate who responded first, regardless of whether he was a Japanese envoy or not, if he killed someone, he had to obey the laws of the Tang Dynasty. He doesn't care whether there will be another amnesty in the future, but as the head of a county, he can't justify doing nothing. At the moment, the county magistrate asked the accompanying Tang officials for instructions, and wanted to arrest the perpetrator and put him under the law.
Although Guan Wuming was a monk from the Tang Dynasty, he came with the envoy sent to the Tang Dynasty. The official was also a little hesitant, and right here, the few servants who came to replace the residual wine suddenly changed their faces. Like an ape, he rushed towards the dazed monk Kongkai...
