The calendar of body poison is very different from that of the Central Plains, with the fifteenth day of the first lunar month as the first year, and the year is divided into six seasons: gradual heat, scorching heat, rain, mao, cold, and severe cold.Chu Shaosun was ordered by Yang Yun to go south in September 49 BC in the third year of Liuhe, which happened to be the time of getting colder, corresponding to the poisonous month of "Moga Shiluo month", and the weather was not so hot.Out of the Ba Tiecheng to the south, at first to take a land route, Gao Wutong also asked Chu Shaosun intimately: "Mr. want to take an elephant?"
”Saying that he still owes an elephant to come, Chu Shaosun's hometown of Pei County to the south, near Surabaya, and even from the forest there have been wild elephants destroying people's homes, but this kind of thing happens once in ten years, elephants are very rare in the Central Plains, and they have to enter the Jingyang realm to see it rarely, but they are not as docile as poisonous elephants.Chu Shaosun didn't dare to ride, for fear that the beast would launch a rush to overturn himself to the ground, so he rode in the same car with Gao Wutong, and Gao Wutong told him on the road, don't look at elephants that are easy to tame on weekdays, and can even be used to plow the fields, but they are not easy to get along with on the battlefield."
When I went south to fight Wuyi Mountain and left the country, I met a large number of elephant soldiers, the elephant was covered with strong armor, and the teeth were sharp and barb, and there were three people sitting on it, one of them was driving, and two of them were bowing.The hussar general had the mules and donkeys drive me and intimidate the elephants, but an elephant went on a rampage, and my horse was so frightened that he threw me off and almost died under the elephant's legs.Thanks to the guilt of Pao Zezhang and a spear, he led the elephant to chase him, and I was able to survive. ”Gao Wutong also said that there is no shortage of poisonous people in the army today, and among the Kshatriya caste, there are a group of specialized warriors who are heroic, and their children have passed on their careers, and they have not been engaged in production since they were young, and they are specialized in fighting wars.The palace is guarded, and the expedition is the striker.So the cavalry was selected from the Cypriots, the apprentices were selected from the poisonous people, and the Han people served as many officers.He commented: "Don't look at the poisonous soldiers, although the soldiers are heroic, dancing with knives and bells and whistles, in fact, they are the most useless, and the crossbows will be broken in two rounds, and the war still has to rely on the Sai soldiers and the Han people." ”In the same way, the small countries that are divided by the middle body poison and the west body poison are also such armies, no wonder the hussar general can send a captain with a few thousand people to defeat all the states.After walking for a few days, he left the Pop Bin Road and entered the "Nanxia Road", which was called Punjab in the past, and it was many city-states after the Great Xia Kingdom moved south, half of the city has been allocated to the "Guanxi Hou", and the other half is still the Greeks as the city lord, and pays a high protection fee every year.Chu Shaosun saw that the cities and buildings on this land were quite distinctive, including the Greek-style pillars of Daxia, and the poisonous local gods and statues, plus the Persian resting style utensils, and now there are more Han family buildings and five-baht coins circulating in the market.Punjab, which is a mixture of the four major modernizations, is full of vitality and developed commerce, and I don't know what kind of results will be integrated in the future.At this point, you can see the wide and magnificent body poison water flowing south, and all the rivers of the north body poison converge here, but the water is moderate.Because the place is southern, the climate is similar to that of the Jianghuai region in the Central Plains, so there is no freezing, and you can sail all year round.After two days of sailing south, we entered the boundary of Mount Ugo, which is also called Sindh Road, and Sindh and Poison agreed.Although it is late autumn, Chu Shaosun wore a thick clothes, and when he woke up, he was sweating all over, the summer heat here was reckless, and there were already tropical rainforests on both sides, lions were in groups in the jungle on both sides, and there were huge rhinoceros drinking water by the river, and they were not afraid to see people.One day, near the right bank of the Shenfu River, Chu Shaosun also saw an abandoned city located in the jungle, strange to say, the vegetation around here is dense, not yellow all year round, but the surrounding area of the city is not a single grass, but there is no human habitation.When Chu Shaosun asked, he learned that this place is called "Mohenjo Daro", and the locals call it "Dead Hill"."
The poisonous brahmins said that this was a city of evil spirits, a dwelling place for devils, and their ancestors came in and expelled and killed them, and the city was desolate."
Chu Shaosun looked at the ruins and walked away, and wrote a note on the line.The next day, when passing by a small city with a wharf on the verge of a poisonous river, Gao Wutong asked the boat to dock: "Mr.
Chu, this is the city I said Zhang was guilty of." ”Zhang Cheng was the most brave and easy to kill among the jade diggers, and every time he beheaded a lot of prisoners, the hussar general reported to the Guannei Marquis in the court also had him, and gave him another city."
This place was originally called Bi Tampo Buluo, Zhang was guilty of the crime, and changed his name, so it was called Zhangjiabao."
Good, catchy, good name!
Chu Shaosun saw that in addition to the city standing on the hill in the distance, there were thousands of households living here on the side of the poisonous river for dozens of miles, and most of these people were Shudras, as well as even lower "untouchables", and the city could not enter.In Sindh, where there is a double crop of crops a year, it is now a slack for farming, but they still fish in the rivers and cut down reeds without a chance to rest, and they are barefoot and not allowed to wear shoes, and the Vaishyas and Cyptic Kshatriyas supervise their work.Seeing the ship docking, Chu Shaosun and others went ashore in gorgeous clothes, and when they entered the city, the poisonous people did not need to be reminded, so they saluted one after another."
There are nine different degrees of etiquette for body poisoning, and the lower castes must perform a great salute when they see the high caste.The hussar general made an agreement with the brahmins that the untouchables would throw themselves to the ground when they saw Aurora, and the Shudras would put their knees on the ground when they saw Aurora.The Vaishyas had to bend their knees, the Kshatriyas folded their palms and arched flat, and the brahmins had to bow their heads in respect. ”Ren Hussar did not change the meaning of this system in the slightest, but recognized and strengthened it, and Gao Wutong also enjoyed this treatment, striding over with his head held high.It seems that the rules of this Zhangjiabao are quite strict, in Chu Shaosun's imagination, Gao Wutong often mentions that Zhang is guilty, he must be a fierce warrior with a big waist and a round waist.But when I arrived in the city, I met Zhang Cheng and brought his family to greet him, but I saw that he was a sick yellow-faced man, not to mention how brave and easy to kill back then, but now he was tormented by illness and deformed, his voice was weak, he was very happy to see Gao Wutong, and he actually shed tears, held his hand and said: "I was seriously ill again in the summer, and I thought I couldn't see my brother." ”The two sighed for a while, and came to see Chu Shaosun again, and heard that he was a disciple of the hussar general, and he had learned Zuo Chuan, and Zhang was also very respectful, and he did not look down on the scholar at all.After being invited to enter the city, let people kill pigs and slaughter sheep to entertain, and the banquet was more sumptuous than Gao Wutong's house.It's just that there are few wheat and millet, the staple food is rice and rice, Chu Shaosun is not used to eating it, he grew up eating millet, and he reluctantly accepted wheat cakes after coming to the Western Regions, and rice is a last resort.Chu Shaosun saw that the case table between himself and Gao Wutong was full of meat, but there was only a small bowl of rice porridge with green vegetable leaves floating on the case table where Zhang was guilty, and he couldn't help but be surprised, and thought that Zhang was guilty of being sick and had no appetite, and then he explained the reason."
I'm ashamed.""
I have not killed and eaten meat for many years."
Zhang Cheng folded his hands together, and his face was full of laughter: "I believe in Futu and eat vegetarian!"
”"Zhang was not like this in the past, he was a well-known villain.""
When I was doing jade digging work, for no reason, I stoned to death the old Shamen of Futu who delivered food to us, and when I left Wuyi Mountain, I followed Zhao Du in the river to protect and slaughter the city and kill prisoners.Nowadays, among all the Guanxi marquis, they are the most guilty and believe in Futu. ”Listen to this meaning, there is more than one believer?"
But I've heard that worshipping the Buddha is contrary to worshipping the ancestors."
Chu Shaosun didn't know much about this sect, and when he was in Ba Tiecheng, he also visited the nearby Futu Temple, also known as Jialan Temple, and the first impression was much better than that of the Brahmin Temple in terms of senses alone.Gao Wutong said with a smile: "We are jade diggers, uprooted from our hometown, a few of them are remembering their ancestors, and most of them, counting three generations forward, can't count."
However, the Han people who believe in Futu mostly live in Xinde Road, do you know what the reason is?
”"The local floating slaughter is more prosperous than the north?"
Gao Wutong shook his head: "Otherwise, just like the early death of the great Han Jingyang's husband, this land of faith is hot in the summer, and now it's almost winter, but in the four local seasons of gradual heat, scorching heat, rain, and mao, it is simply impossible to stay." ”After the Han immigrants, who are mostly northerners, enter this place, they often do not adapt to the water and soil, and every summer and autumn, this land has been shrouded in epidemics.Diseases of all kinds have claimed the lives of many veterans, and the casualties are more numerous than in battle.The doctors under the hussar generals were scarce, and although some doctors were recruited from the Central Plains one after another, and they were also developing medicines against malaria and other diseases, it was really a drop in the bucket.Gao Wutong pointed to Zhang Chengsin, who was worshipping sincerely in the Jialan Temple in the city, and said: "Zhang Chengcheng has had three sons and two daughters in the past ten years, and four have died of illness, and now there is only one only daughter left.He was a man who killed captives without blinking, but when his beloved children died, his eyes were bleeding from crying.Thinking about the past, I only think that it was because the killing was too heavy, and the innocent old novice was stoned to death, which is the disaster. ”So, when he saw the Futu Temple in the past, he had to go in and loot the gold and silver artifacts, but he actually restored the temple in the city.There was a novice named Rib Bhikshu who could speak Chinese and had herbal remedies that could cure local epidemics, which saved his little girl.Zhang Cheng followed the rib monk to believe in Futu, became a layman, and took him to Ba Tiecheng to meet the hussar general" Chu Shaosun was interested, he hadn't heard Yang Yun mention this matter: "Then the rib monk didn't want to persuade the hussar general to also believe in Futu?"
”This Gao Wutong is not very clear, Chu Shaosun is close to Zhang's guilt, and inquired about the outcome of this matter."
The Rib Monk and the Hussar General talked about the Dharma, but the Hussar General didn't want to hear it, so he yawned."
After becoming rich and wealthy, and after experiencing the early death of his four children, he seemed to be a little disheartened, and he had no interest in the things of this world, but had high hopes for the "next life", believing in the way preached by the monks, hoping that he and his children would not devote themselves to the animal path."
The rib bhikshu also said that the King of Sanssouci who was poisonous, and the King of Milan of the Southern Great Xia Kingdom, both believed in the Futu after killing and conquering first, promoted Buddhism, and finally became the Wheel Saint King of the Protector of the Futu."
It seems that the poisonous man is also persuading the hussar to be the king, Chu Shaosun was shocked.But what happened next, although Zhang Cheng believed in Futu, he was more utilitarian, and he didn't have any wisdom, so he couldn't explain those profound things at all.So Chu Shaosun could only hurry up and inquire about the matter with the disciple of the rib monk in the Jialan Temple in the city, the little novice Fu Naqi.He did not miss any opportunity to preach, and when he heard that Chu Shaosun was a "great official" from the Central Plains, he said respectfully: "On that day, my master said that if the hussar general imitates the King of Sanssouci and the King of Milan, he will be able to possess the Seven Treasures and Four Virtues, and also become the King of the Wheel." ”He explained: "The so-called seven treasures are the wheel treasure, the elephant treasure, the horse treasure, the female treasure, the wishful treasure, the courtier's treasure, and the soldier's treasure.The four virtues refer to great wealth, good integrity, no disease, and longevity. ”There is more than one kind of wheel king in Buddhism, there are four kinds of golden wheel king, silver wheel king, bronze wheel king, and iron wheel king.The gold wheel is the upper grade, the silver wheel is the upper grade, the copper wheel is the middle grade, and the iron wheel is the lower grade.Fu Naqi said: "His Holiness said that King Sanssouci is the Holy King of the Iron Wheel Protector, King Milan is the Holy King of the Bronze Wheel Protector, and the Hussar General may be the Holy King of the Silver Wheel Protector. ”Confusion flashed in his eyes: "Then the hussar general laughed and said, "Can't I be the King of the Golden Wheel?"
”"His Holiness said that the Golden Wheel Dharma Protector Holy King is the most noble king, who governs the four continents of the world, and when he appears, there will be a bloom of the world.""
If you want to become the Holy King of the Golden Wheel, the hussar general must first become a Buddhist monk, hold precepts, chant sutras, hold mantras, build pagodas and sutra statues, and offer lamps and alms in front of the Buddha with altruism.They should also rule the world by righteousness, and teach the people at all times not to kill, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to have two tongues, not to speak evilly, not to speak falsely, not to gossip, not to be greedy, not to be jealous, and not to have evil opinions. ”This Nima is more difficult than the rule of three generations.Then Ren Hussar politely invited the Rib Bhikkhu master and apprentice to leave, but only sighed at Zhang's guilt, and never summoned him again.Gao Wutong told Chu Shaosun: "Most of the hussar generals don't like Futu in their hearts, so let Yang Gong send a message to the county commanders, county lieutenants, and Cheng of various provinces, saying that if there is a letter to Futu, you can hand over the official seal and go home, this is a ban."
It is also true that people who have already obtained fiefs and are not in the capital protectorate do not care.It is still the general who thinks of his merits and works hard, otherwise even the city will be taken. ”Later, although the hussar generals did not become laymen, they did improve the situation of Futu by allowing them to re-enter the city of Batie, and chose the Brahmin temple to build a small temple.So there was no need for the hussar generals to instigate them, and the sacrifices of the Futu Shamen and the Brahmins fought in the ring every day, exposing each other's ugly things, so it was not lively.As for the south, it is neither encouraged nor suppressed, and only allowed to remain in a state of confrontation with the Brahmins.In addition to Theravada and Mass, there are 18 schools in the two schools, each with its own door, and all kinds of arguments are surging."
The general probably wants to stir up different opinions?
The Brahmins were powerful, so they were restrained by the Buddhas. ”Chu Shaosun guessed.He knew in the biography of body poison written by Yang Yun that King Sanssouci had almost unified body poison two hundred years ago, and the country was called Peacock to promote Buddhism.The Mauryan Dynasty was later destroyed by the generals, and a Sunga Dynasty was built, which vigorously supported Brahmanism and destroyed Buddhist temples.Now the Sunga Dynasty has also been killed by its generals, and it has been replaced by the Ganpo Dynasty, but the land is only a corner of the poisonous body, and there are many small countries around.Chu Shaosun wrote down this matter in the line of the book, the next day said goodbye to Zhang Cheng and continued to go south, at this time it was winter October, that is, the "sand moon" of the body poison, but did not feel the cold weather, as the body poison river became wider and wider, the ships gradually increased, the first port of the Duhu Mansion: Taibai Port is in front.Chu Shaosun seemed to smell the smell of the sea, and Gao Wutong held the boat gang, pointed ahead and said, "Mr.
Chu knows, this port was not called Taibai originally. ”"The poisoners call it Patara, Pakistan's largest city, Karachi.""
And the people of Daxia call it Yali Mountain Dagang!""
Yali Mountain, this is the name of the conquering king who once conquered Lixuan, Persia, and Great Xia in the biography of the Great Xia Lie, and almost unified the West, right?"
Yali pear is a specialty of Changshan in Jizhou, and Taishi Gong praised that there are thousands of pears there.But how could this name be applied to the Greek king whom the hussars called the "King of Conquests"?
Or is it because Yali Shanda also loves to eat Yali pear?
Chu Shaosun only felt that this translation was weird, and he couldn't say anything wrong, but this Yali Mountain Da had a habit, that is, he liked to build cities with the same name as him in the conquered places.For example, Kuzhan is the "Yali Mountain of the Far East", and there is a "Caucasian Yali Mountain of Daria" in the land of the Great Yueshi, because the Greeks called the Green Ridge Pamir the Caucasus Mountain.The same is true of the mouth of the poisonous river, and I heard that the capital of Ptolemaic Egypt on the other side of the sea is also called the great port of Yali Mountain.The harbor was a tall water gate, but instead of going downstream, the ships stopped at a small town outside the city with gardens and pavilions, which was small but as magnificent as a palace."
Where is this?"
Chu Shaosun looked left and right, and heard the lively hustle and bustle, and there was a banquet going on inside."
This place is called Sanssouci Fort, every winter, the hussar general will take his family to inspect the port, and he lives here, and now it is inhabited by Princess Zhaosu."
Princess Zhaosu is the daughter of a hussar general, the princess of Chu loves this granddaughter the most, and Queen Xu also likes her.Princess Zhaosu came west to reunite with her parents, and Chu Shaosun didn't know what happened next."
Shall we meet the princess first?"
Chu Shaosun was surprised."
Mr.
Chu really doesn't know?
Captain Chen also lives here. ”Gao Wutong smiled dumbly, and really forgot to mention this stubble to him: "Since that Chen Tang came to be poisoned, because of his repeated miraculous feats, he dared to fight, and he was deeply loved by the hussar generals, and he was repeatedly promoted.The general prides himself on the front wave, and the soup is the back wave.After the princess came west, she also fell in love with Chen Tang, and the hussar general asked Princess Yang to marry, which became a good story. ”"Therefore, Chen Tang is not only the captain of Houlang, but also the beloved son-in-law of the hussar general!"

Gao Wutong couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder Princess Zhaosu fell in love with Chen Tang, this poison is a rough person like me and Zhang, with a black face and a stupid mouth."
Zhu Xiaowei and Guanxi Houzhong, but also Chen Tang reads a lot, is good at Boda, and can talk about poetry and scriptures with the princess. ”Chu Shaosun suddenly realized, Gao Wutong's complaints stopped, they had already entered this "palace", and after showing the talisman, the two followed the poisonous butler with a big cloth on his head into the courtyard.As soon as I entered, I saw a small couple standing in the center of the courtyard, Princess Zhaosu, who was no more than twenty years old, was slender, wearing a skirt, holding an arrow in one hand, and preparing to throw a pot on tiptoe.And a white-faced lieutenant who looked about thirty and looked more like a soldier was smiling and applauding."
Madame's wonderful!"
For some reason, Chu Shaosun always felt that this scene was familiar!
