Chapter 19: Humans and tigers live half-way with each other, and they end up hurting each other.(2/2)

"Jia Sixie's essential skills for improving the people include: steam and wrap the rice in a seven-inch square, boil the rice with black bean juice, ginger, orange peel, parsley, garlic, salt, finely chop and boil the grits, and apply oil on a bamboo slipper.

Wrap it with a cross, put the grits on top, and bend it with grits again. This ring-shaped cake is the cabinet.

I have forgotten that today is a big day for the Liao people, and that tiger is used for sacrifice!"

Zheng Shuqing suddenly realized and said.

The local Liao people in Kuizhou hold a large-scale sacrifice on October 1st every year, which is called "Zi Chen" by the Liao people. On this day, no matter how many grudges you have, you must put aside and celebrate and worship together.

After listening to Zheng Shuqing's talk about these local common things, Fang Chongyong suddenly realized: No wonder the Liao people came out to catch tigers during the festival today, and no wonder they were cordially invited to come here as guests. This is all the reason.

The Liao people caught the tiger not because the tiger was easy to bully, but because they wanted to celebrate the festival. The complicated food in the cabinet was not made for the sake of appetite, but to celebrate the festival. Fang Chongyong and his party were invited to be guests, except Zheng Shuqing, who had a big face.

In addition, one of the main reasons is that they celebrate the festival.

"There are no horses in the Liao people's mountains, so it's really strange that saddles are used as wall accessories."

Fang Chongyong couldn't help sighing and sighed, and took a mouthful of the cabinet. A strong "local flavor" filled his mouth. He swallowed it with difficulty and refused to touch it a second time. Fang Laique ate it with gusto, as if

All food is delicious in his mouth and he cannot refuse it.

The Liao people are based on large families, which can barely be regarded as tribes. There are about ten men in a family, and there are many girls and boys. The clan leader came to salute Zheng Shuqing, and led the teenage boy who had just shot the tiger blind with an arrow to Zheng Shuqing.

, asked Zheng Shuqing in jerky Chinese if he still needed any followers.

Fang Chongyong and Zheng Shuqing looked at each other, and they knew that the sentimental gang was lurking here. If someone invites you to visit, they must have something to ask for, and it won't be without purpose.

Even if the Liao people have been self-sufficient in the mountains and forests for a long time, they will inevitably go in and out of Kuizhou's capital city from time to time. Otherwise, they would not recognize Zheng Shuqing as the governor of Kuizhou, let alone have the idea of ​​​​going out of the mountains. Many of the Liao people's children followed and passed by Kuizhou.

Merchants from the state serve as guides or escorts. Information from the outside may be delayed, but it is never cut off.

"I am going back to Chang'an. In the future, I will be an official in the Central Yamen and there will be no need for escorts."

Zheng Shuqing pondered for a moment and said.

The Liao tribe leader's face obviously darkened a lot.

"But this one."

Zheng Shuqing pointed at Fang Chongyong and said: "His father is the censor of the imperial court. He is a big official and needs people around him. Do you think this will work..."

Having said this, he winked at Fang Chongyong, signaling the other party to agree.

Although the followers of Liao people have many shortcomings compared with ordinary Han people, they also have an advantage that no one else can match: interpersonal relationships are extremely simple!

Merchants here often hire Lio people as escorts and guides, because they are worried about being unfamiliar with the place and being killed by people with evil intentions! Even if the Lio people want to kill people and buy goods, they have no channels to sell the stolen goods! The circle of Lio people also pays attention to this kind of thing, deliberately

Avoid these conflicts.

Fang Chongyong pondered for a moment, and suddenly understood in his heart. Now that he has nothing, he is only a half-year-old child, so he can be easily controlled by others. If Fang Lai is brave, he is brave, and there is no problem with loyalty, but

It's so cute that it's useless at critical moments.

As he is about to leave Kuizhou, he really needs someone with simple interpersonal relationships as his personal bodyguard. This young Liao man can be considered a "life-saving grace", so it is better to keep him for his own use.

Fang Chongyong nodded slightly and said: "Follow me from now on. What is your name?"

"A Duan."
