Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 320: A rare panic
Zhao Xin, who was drinking wine, and Zhao Ji, who he said were both of Xiongnu blood, were descendants of the Xiongnu prisoners who were captured during Emperor Wu's time. After several generations of mixed blood with the Han people, now there is no difference except that they are a little taller than the Han people. The name of the Han family also chose Zhao, the largest of the hundred family surnames, as the surname of the Han family.
The original Xiongnu prisoners of war were placed in the Zhongzhou generation, and they had a comfortable life. However, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhongzhou has become a battleground for military strategists. Whether it is the Yellow Turban Army or the army of the imperial court, the descendants of the Huns who are tall and tall are the first choice for recruiting.
At the moment, after discussions with their parents, Zhao Xin and Zhao Ji tried every means to move back to the grasslands where their ancestors lived. Compared with Zhongzhou, where they were used to living, although it was a bit bitter and cold here, at least they didn't have to worry about their lives being caught on the battlefield.
On the way to migrate, because I took the wrong path. These people made a big circle in the desert, and many people did not survive, leaving their lives in the desert. Fortunately, they found an oasis in the desert, and they found it after two years in the oasis. Xin Zhao, Zhao Ji, and several other children were all born during those two years in Oasis.
Hearing that the old and disrespectful old guy in front of him was looking for Zhao Ji, Xin Zhao rolled his eyes and said, "Old man, I know a man named Zhao Ji is not fake. But he was taken by a camel caravan. Going to the business, I left three days ago, and it will take almost three months to come back. Anyway, you are all rich, so just wait here for three months. When Zhao Ji comes back, if you have any questions, ask him directly... "
While he was speaking, the store owner had placed a large wine jar in front of him. When Xin Zhao saw it, he scooped a bowl of wine out of his wine bowl with a wide-eyed smile. In the end, without caring about these foreigners, in front of Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, he drank the fine horse milk wine in the bowl in one go. In the end, this Xin Zhao looked satisfied. Looking at Xiao Ren San's saliva, the little guy wiped his mouth and said to the boss, "According to his jar of wine, give us a jar of ginseng..."
At the moment, Xiao Ren San pulled his eldest nephew Bai Wuqiu to sit down and drink together. Gui Bugui smiled and walked over to Xin Zhao who was pouring wine into his mouth, grabbed his hand that had already scooped up a bowl of fine wine, and said, "Don't be busy with drinking, chat with the old man. I If the old man is happy, I will take care of you all the wine in your life. In addition to the three meals a day for your family, birth, old age, sickness and death are all recorded on the old man's body."
"Old man, you're not recruiting for the imperial court, are you?" Xin Zhao didn't believe that his luck would be so good, and after staring at Gui Bugui for a while, he continued, "Then I won't go, it's bitter here. You can survive even just a little bit, and follow you to the battlefield..."
Before Xin Zhao finished speaking, he took out a gold ingot from his arms. In front of his face, the old guy ripped off a small golden scorpion and was still in front of Xin Zhao. Finally, Gui Bugui said with a smile: "Have you ever seen such a generous recruiting officer? Besides, the people in the Central Plains are still dead. Who would come here to recruit?"
Xin Zhao's head was already numb from drinking, and aside from the gold in front of him, he didn't even think about how this old man would have the ability to break a piece from a gold ingot with his bare hands. After he was stunned for a while, he realized that this golden coin was for himself, and hurriedly took the gold into his arms.
Gui Bugui smiled when he saw it, and began to take advantage of Xin Zhao's alcoholism to ask him about Zhao Ji. Including Zhao Ji's birth date, where was he born, and has he encountered anything dangerous since his birth.
That's all, it's just that things like the birth date can be easily told to others? However, at this time Xin Zhao had already drank the wood, and when he returned, he would break off a piece of gold from time to time, and it was still in front of him. At the moment, Xin Zhao's head was blank, and he uncontrollably told Gui Wugui everything he knew about Zhao Ji.
Almost every word he said, he threw a piece of gold in front of Xin Zhao. After Zhao Ji's life was finished, the gold ingot was almost given to Xin Zhao. I thought this was a lot, but I didn't expect that the old guy who got the answer was in a good mood, and even threw the remaining half of the gold ingot to him.
At this time, Wu Mian, who had been watching the excitement, said slowly, "It's rare that you are so generous. It seems that Zhao Ji is the person you are looking for, right?"
"I've met, and I won't dare to say whether it's true or not until the old man sees Xu Fu's imprint on him." Gui Bugui turned around and smiled at Wu Mian, then continued: "But come now. Look, this oasis where Zhao Ji was born should be the land of Zhiguo. The eight characters are also correct, unless there is another Zhao Ji born in the land of Zhiguo at that time, otherwise, this is Zhao Ji. As long as we wait until he come back..."
At this time, Guibugui suddenly thought of something. He said to Wu Mian, "Didn't you think about going with my old man?"
"You're not my son, why should I think about you?" After Wu Mian smiled oddly, he stopped talking. Just staring at the return with a mocking look, the old guy was somewhat uncomfortable looking at him. At the moment, Gui Bugui coughed in a pretentious manner, turned around and bit the gold ingot with his teeth, Xin Zhao, who was testing the quality of the gold, said: "When did you say Zhao Ji left? Where did he go? When are you coming back? Who took him away?"
Xin Zhao was still in the ecstasy of getting a windfall at this time, plus the bowls of kumiss he had previously had. He was immersed in his own world, and he didn't hear what Guiwugui said to him at all. In the end, the old guy, in a rare impatience, gave Xin Zhao a slight smack on his face.
In an instant, Xin Zhao finally came to his senses. There is no need to repeat it, he actually already understands what this old guy said just now. Immediately, Xin Zhao replied in a daze: "Zhao Ji left three days ago. He went to be a guide for the camel caravan. It will take almost three months to come back. This time the camel caravan is full of new faces. I have never seen them before. , just like you, they also took Zhao Ji with him after inquiring about his birth date. Originally, they wanted me to be a guide, but they gave me a coin for two days..."
Wait until I return and ask what the people who took Zhao Ji away are like, Xin Zhao's ability to express is too poor, I really can't tell the features of those people.
In the end, I gave up asking Xin Zhao about the whereabouts of those people. The old guy changed his words and said to Xin Zhao: "Apart from you, does anyone else know the route to the oasis? "
After hearing Xin Zhao's negative answer, Gui Bugui's face finally calmed down. Then he took out another gold ingot from his arms, threw it to Xin Zhao, and said, "Old man, I will give you a bargain, and you will take us along the route that Zhao Ji and the others took. This is the deposit, We will come back when we find Zhao Ji. Then I will give you ten more gold ingots like this, understand?"
Xin Zhao couldn't believe his ears. He stared blankly at the return, unable to speak for a long time. In a hurry to return or not, he didn't care about him coming over, and directly grabbed Xin Zhao's clothes and dragged him out of the wine shop. Then he said to Xiao Ren San, who was still playing like a family, "Let's go, if you want to drink, drink on the road..."
After coming out of the tavern, Gui Bugui immediately asked the people he hired to pack his bags and prepare to leave immediately. Take Xin Zhao to his house to report the letter. When Xin Zhao's father saw Huang Cancan's gold ingot, he was so surprised that he couldn't even utter a word. At the moment, I will tell you to take this child away, and I don't want to say that.
Under the constant urging of Homeless, their horse team set off again. Going in the direction Xin Zhao pointed, after walking out, Bai Wuqiu responded: "Old guy, isn't this the road you gave Lao Tzu on the map? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Gui Bugui glanced at his cheap son, laughed and cried, and said, "Let's hurry up. Maybe it's a waste of time this time, and the soul of Xu Fu's benefactor disappeared last night. You think he Won't you come back in person to trouble the old man?"
