The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 274: We have a Miao person


This is the first time Yun Yanhui has seen a scapegoat who is even less fortunate than himself. Imperial Physician Wang stood there with a look of daze and grievance on his face. Although he could not understand the Miao language, he could feel his emotions.

At this time, Zhou Huilin also got up. He took a slow step out. Seeing that Imperial Doctor Wang was about to be submerged, and his coat was not on, he rushed up with a stride, separated those people with his arms, and roared: "Pride! What are you doing! "

The Miao people were silent for a moment, then louder accusations erupted.

Zhou Huilin really wanted to use violence to solve it, but this place is no different than Bianjing, it is someone else's territory, so he can only protect the imperial doctor Wang and roar a few times. Soon, he found that this was useless, and he couldn't stop so many people by himself, "Yunyan back, cloud chases the wind!"

Yun Yanhui originally wanted to go to the rescue of the imperial doctor Wang, but Zhou Huilin took the lead and saw how he was going. Who knew that he would be defeated after only roaring twice. .

Yunyan walked over and said in Miao language, "To make trouble without reason. Before Shishan took the medicine, the Tusi agreed and read the medicine. If there is really a problem, wouldn't she know?"

The Miao people hesitated and did not speak. They are relatively upright and reckless, but they are not fools. If they follow along at this time, wouldn't they be questioning the ability of the chieftain?

Alas, this young man is obviously a Miao, but he has become cunning as he mixes with the Han!

Yun Yanhui took out the remaining medicinal materials and showed them to them, "You can test it. These are all good medicines. Someone should recognize this doctor, but he treats our emperor. When a man is put to death, he is even more grief-stricken, and will he ruin his reputation?"

Yun Yan continued to speak, the more everyone listened, the more they felt that it was not the young man being cunning, it might be the case.

Didn't the chieftain also said at the time that the gods were going to take Shishan away? Maybe it was just this doctor who bumped into it. The people the gods want to take away cannot even be saved by the doctor who treated the Han emperor.

After calming down a small disturbance, Yun Yan went back to find Shi Meilan.

She was so busy coaxing the tiger cub that she probably didn't have time to manage the commotion outside. The little tiger couldn't wake up his father. Realizing that the death everyone said had come, he cried for a while.

Shi Meilan laboriously explained to him that "death" is not the end, and his father's soul will live on every grass and tree in the stockade.

However, for a while, it was difficult for the little tiger to listen to this theory.

Because the little tiger was crying, Shi Meilan had to hug him and murmur a few times before the little tiger slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep. Shi Meilan put him aside, and then said to Yun Yanhui and the others, "I had expected it for a long time. He would be taken away by the Yin God after all. I'll take you down, I'll give him a ride."

Miao people believe that after death, there is still a soul and consciousness. Shi Meilan will be buried for Yun Da according to the customs of the Miao people.

Before the burial, Yun Da was going to rest his body for three days, and Shi Meilan personally beat the drum with a small leather drum.

Someone told Yun Yanhui that she would not sleep for three days and three nights, but kept beating drums in the hall, and sang sacrificial songs when she was buried. She was both a relative of the deceased and a priest.

Yunyan returned to make up her mind, and would not leave until Yunda was buried in the ground.

Yunyan returned to help Shi Meilan, who was presiding over the funeral, and took the little tiger for a few days. After three days, the little tiger was sad, but he accepted his father's departure and did not yell for him to wake up.

When it was time for the burial, the people in the stockade lined up in a long line, carrying Yun Da's body up the mountain. Yun Yanhui and the others didn't need to go to see each other, but Yun Yanhui still followed behind the team.

As soon as Yun Da died, only Yun Yanhui knew his identity. He sighed with emotion about what happened to Yun Da, and in any case he was a father and son by blood.

Shi Meilan sang the sacrificial song, which echoed in the empty mountains. It seems that she found a place according to the guidance in the dark, and then everyone digs soil on the spot, pays homage, and buries.

The Miao people gathered around the cemetery, reciting scriptures with Shi Meilan, and the little tiger knelt beside him, confused in sadness.

After the funeral, Yunyan held back the little tiger's face and said, "Little tiger, we are about to leave, tell your brother, are you okay?"

The little tiger subconsciously hugged Yun Yan back and didn't want to part with him, but soon, the little tiger remembered that Brother Yan had to go back, and he couldn't leave A-Niang at this time.

The little tiger gritted his teeth and was silent for a while, instead of being coquettish as usual, he said firmly: "I can do it, Brother Yan, I will take care of my mother, eat and dress by myself, and write by myself." /

"The little tiger has grown up." Yunyan patted the little tiger's head with relief, "We don't cry for parting, we just celebrate when we meet again. If we agree, we'll give a high five, okay?"

"I will never cry again!" said the little tiger loudly, and slapped Yun Yanhui's palm.

……

When Yun Yanhui and his group left, the little tiger really didn't cry. He rode on the shoulders of a guard and waved goodbye.

The mountain road was winding, Yun Yanhui and the others came to a bend. When they were about to disappear, Yun Yanhui turned back again.

The little tiger shouted: "Brother Yan, wait for me to see you later!"

Yunyan beckoned back, and her figure disappeared in the forest.

.

The horses and carriage were handed over to the inn when going up the mountain. After another trek down the mountain, Yun Yanhui and others headed to the inn in Guizhou, where they rested for a day, and then led the carriage back.

The way back was not as hurried as when I came, and considering that Imperial Physician Wang was too old, he couldn't bear the fatigue, so the speed slowed down a lot, and he didn't have to travel day and night, he could sleep at the station. .

When passing through Yizhou, as usual, I slept one night at night.

There are many poisonous miasmas in Guangnan. If I hadn't asked for some herbal medicines before leaving Guizhou, I would have been plagued by mosquitoes. In addition, the weather is also relatively bad. If you walk fast, your body will not be able to eat, and if you walk slowly, the environment is also bad. Imperial Physician Wang is really miserable.

When he was at the inn at night, Imperial Physician Wang was so tormented that he couldn't sleep, so Yun Yan went back to sit with him on the steps and went to the kitchen to make tea and drink it with him.

Although the age difference between the two is relatively large, the current situation is a ready-made common topic. The two compare the difference between Guangnan and their hometown.

Yunyan recalled that Yuwen Rou Nu was originally in this area, and the medical environment was not good, so she treated the local people. There are very few serious doctors here, and most of them use local methods or find wizards.

The old man and the young man were chatting when suddenly there was a loud noise and fire in front of him.

Yun Yanhui stood up vigilantly, leaning on the courtyard door to look out, listening carefully, there was the sound of swordsmen, suspecting that it was a bandit, the security here is really bad, he hurriedly went to wake up the guards.

Zhou Huilin was disheveled, came out holding a knife, and ordered someone to go outside to check the situation.

A guard went out with a knife, came back after a while, and said in a panic, "The barbarians in Yizhou are in trouble again. They sneaked into the city and plundered them. There are many people, and the people from the inn are guarding the front."

Everyone is poor, only the government is not so poor, and there are horses in the post, so it is reasonable to be robbed. As for the uprising, we know from the word "you". Many barbarians in Guangnan will make trouble if they can't survive. Because the area is poor, they often can't survive...

The imperial court has also thought of a lot of ways, all kinds of relief, after preparing for the implementation of the chieftain system, recently, Xiang Shi Meilan took the lead in setting up a trade point, but after all, it was not able to achieve immediate results, so there are still troubles from time to time.

Zhou Huilin made a decisive decision: "Take the weapons, we will support."

As a young man, Yun Yanhui should have stepped forward, but the imperial physician Wang was old. After some consideration, everyone still asked him to take care of the imperial physician Wang.

This inn is not big, Yun Yan looked back, and there was nothing to hide, so she gave up, and asked Imperial Doctor Wang to stay in the room for the time being, and leaned against the courtyard wall to take a look.

Song people collectively refer to the Tu people in Guangnan as barbarians. In fact, there are many ethnic groups here, most of them are Miao people, Tongren and Liaoren. Among them, the Miao people were basically stable in the Shi family's restraint, the young people's vitality was greatly damaged, and it was not a concern for a short time.

A lot of people in Yizhou are liaisons. They are really much more than the post station, and they have homemade bows and arrows in their hands. There are few people on the side of the inn, and even if there are Zhou Huilin and the others, the support is far from enough.

In addition to Zhou Huilin and the others, there is no regular army at all. Zhou Huilin wants to mobilize the men and horses of the post station, but he can't instruct them. These people are just messing around.

Under such a defeat, my own side had no intention of resisting, and fled in all directions, trying to rush out, but many were shot and killed, and the rest did not dare to resist and were captured.

Zhou Huilin and the others retreated at this time. Blood was dripping from his shoulders. He was scratched by an arrow. It didn't look serious.

The imperial doctor Wang rushed over to take a look, but said solemnly: "It's not good, it's poisonous! The barbarians in Guangnan have the habit of taking poison and wiping arrows, and only they have the antidote."

On the other side, the officers were already approaching, and the gate of the courtyard would not be blocked for long, but the officers and soldiers of Yizhou had not yet appeared.

Zhou Huilin: "They don't kill people who don't resist, but they will kidnap people. If we are all taken away..."

They have no power or power in the local area. If they are taken away, Beijing does not know when they will react. If the local government does not rescue in time, it will be in the hands of the bureaucrats, and it will suffer a lot.

The natives here are often in trouble, and they already have a routine. After they go out and loot the supplies, they can bring the young and strong back, and the rich wait for someone to redeem them. Cannon fodder meat shield.

Before they could discuss it, the gate of the courtyard had already been knocked open. Zhou Huilin and Yunyan looked back at each other and took the lead in keeping their weapons on the ground. The other guards followed suit and lost their weapons.

As soon as the officers swarmed up, they picked up their weapons and tied everyone up. When it was Imperial Physician Wang's turn, these officers looked at him for a while by the light of the torches. Seeing that he was so old, he didn't look particularly wealthy.

Yun Yanhui didn't expect that they were still gagging. I wanted to make a fuss, but now I have nowhere to do it.

Zhou Huilin had this idea originally, and was quite disappointed. Fortunately, they all found out that these people did not intend to bring Imperial Physician Wang, which was a fortune in misfortune.

Next, when they were dragged up the mountain by the rope, Yun Yanhui and the others thought, no wonder those people didn't bring Taiyi Wang. Taiyi Wang was already on the verge of collapse, and they might also be afraid that Taiyi Wang would rush to the street halfway. .

The officers raided the post station and several shops of the Han people, and brought back a lot of supplies and dozens of young and strong Han people. They were very cautious and pointed arrows at all times, making Yun Yanhui afraid of anyone shaking his hand. Someone is unlucky.

……

Liao people generally live in less remote areas than the Miao people, perhaps because of the terrain, they arrived at their place at dawn.

All captives were taken to a main room and placed on the ground. A team of staff also sat on the ground here, guarding them.

Yun Yanhui wanted them to open up their mouths, but unfortunately, these officers turned a blind eye to their needs.

The staff also "worked hard" all night. After sitting down, they moved out of a small urn and prepared to treat themselves. After the small urn was opened, there was a strong smell of wine lees.

They added water to it, and after stirring it for a while, they took a straw and took turns to **** the wine inside. This is a unique drinking method of the local people. It made Zhou Huilin feel disgusted. ?

The imperial court prohibits alcohol, but there are always some places that can't help it. Anyway, the private sale of smuggled brew in the Guangnan area is absolutely unstoppable.

Both the natives and the Han people here are good at wine. If you can control the city, you can't control the people who make their own wine in the mountains.

At this time, Yun Yanhui saw that Zhou Huilin seemed to have been affected by curare, and was drowsy and his face was blue.

Yunyan was anxious back in her heart, bent over and started rubbing the gag cloth on the wall beside her.

Seeing Yun Yanhui's movements, the people sitting next to him felt that he was doing nothing. At first glance, this person is a foreigner. What is the use of rubbing the cloth off? The natives have their own set of procedures, and they control how to treat these captives, when to interrogate and blackmail them, and so on.

Someone pushed Yunyan back very kindly, frowned at him, and shook his head, implying that he should not waste his efforts.

Yun Yan returned but persevered and insisted on rubbing the cloth.

Everyone sighed in their hearts and wanted to see that this person had tender skin and tender meat. Maybe he had never suffered any hardships, and he didn't like dirty mouths. After all, he was also a degenerate person from the end of the world, so there were people who kindly helped him stand in front of him. , Yun Yanhui also glanced at them gratefully.

The staff drained the three jugs of wine before anyone noticed Yun Yanhui's movements. At this time, Yun Yanhui's cloth was about to fall off. Calling disturbed people, so I stepped forward and stuffed things back.

Yun Yanhui quickly spit out the cloth, took a deep breath, and switched to the Miao language in a second, regardless of whether they understood it or not: "What are you doing, when Nong Zhigao raised his army, we all had trouble together. , Lingnan Tu people are like brothers, you guys are too boring!"

Huh? Miao people? !

For a while, other Han people who either despised or helped Yun Yanhui were all stunned for a while. No wonder this person kept trying to talk. It turned out that there was a Miao person among us!

Although these officials did not understand Yun Yanhui's words, they all recognized the Miao language and understood the three words "Nong Zhigao". When Nong Zhigao rebelled, he united many Tu people, including Guangnan Liao and Miao people.

Although I don't know why this man is wearing Han clothes, his fluent Hmong language can't deceive anyone.

The Tu ethnic groups in Guangnan have no sense of identity with the imperial government, and they make troubles at every turn. The Tu ethnic groups have many contacts and complex relationships, which are better than the relationship with the Han people anyway.

Yizhou and Guizhou are not far from each other, and there are many exchanges. In fact, when the Miao people in Guizhou were sealed, other Tu people did not feel any sense of betrayal. Their ideas are very naive and simple, they think it's like they will pretend to bow their heads when they lose, don't Tongren still obediently go to corvée, but they firmly believe that the Tu people can't be assimilated.

These few officers are just guards and can't make up their minds. Seeing Yun Yan's return is aggressive, it seems that his status is not low.

Yun Yanhui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her head and looked at Zhou Huilin's situation with concern, wondering if he could hold on.

Zhou Huilin was very uncomfortable, but still sent a message to Yun Yan with his eyes: they must be fooled and lame.
