Chapter 196
Forced worship
Watai said before that he wanted to lead his troops back to the Khitan. After being blocked by Chen Kefu, Abaoku, who was extremely thoughtful, already understood Chen Kefu's idea. No matter what, they are not only Chen Kefu's captives, but even if Chen Kefu temporarily let them go, they turned to pursue the responsibility of the Dahe family. However, they are also the hostages in Chen Kefu's hands. It is impossible for them to return to the Khitan in a short time.
In secret, he stopped the other young tribe leaders from trying to continue speaking, before he could think about the next situation carefully, he suddenly heard Chen Kefu say that he wanted to make Jinlan with him, which really surprised him a lot.
Men on the grassland, no matter whether they are big or small, always like to become sworn brothers of the opposite sex. Basically, every grassland man has more or less one or two sworn brothers. Abaoku and Mogo used to be sworn brothers, and they were sworn brothers since they were seven or eight years old.
As far as he knows, although the people of the Central Plains also had brothers who worshiped men, most of them were tyrants. Most of them had sworn men who practiced their children and were sworn brothers. In fact, those literati and children from aristocratic families had sworn brothers.
Today, Chen Kefu is not only the marquis of Liaodong of the Great Sui Dynasty, but also a magistrate in the side of the army. Although he was in the Khitan, he was the young leader of the second largest tribe of the Khitan tribe, compared with Chen Kefu, the two of them were still in the sky and in the underground, with a difference between them. Moreover, just a moment ago, he was still a prisoner of Chen Kefu, and even now, he was still a hostage in Chen Kefu's hands. He didn't understand why Chen Kefu wanted to become sworn brothers with him.
Mao Yi, Lu Shishen, Li Shimin and others were shocked and looked at Chen Kefu in confusion. Especially Mao Yi and Lu Shishen, they were a little complicated. Both of them were about ten years older than Chen Kefu. They could be said to have watched Chen Kefu grow up. Moreover, they have been accompanying Chen Kefu in their novels. For more than 20 years, they believe that their relationship with the young master is no longer just a relationship between the king and the subject, but a brotherly relationship.
Although Chen Kefu has always treated them as brothers, he has never said swornship or anything. Now, he has only known a barbarian captive on the grassland for less than a long time, but he wants to become swornship with him, not mentioning the gap in their identities. Just this suddenness made the two of them feel a little confused for a moment.
Abaoku was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and said, "The wilderness of the Abaoku grassland has never understood etiquette. How can he become a sworn person with such a noble person? I would also ask the marquis to take back what he said just now, otherwise, the young man would really not be able to bear it!"
In the gust of autumn wind, not only blew the dead leaves all over the ground, but also blew the hearts of the Sui army soldiers and the young Khitan tribe leaders in front of the formation.
General Chen Kefu suddenly proposed to become a sworn brother with Abaoku, which surprised everyone. But now, Abaoku refused such a proposal, which made people feel even more incredible. The young tribe leaders such as Watai were all regretful. If they could become sworn brothers and generals of the Sui Dynasty, it would undoubtedly be a very good thing. In this way, the tribe would definitely gain the background of the Sui Dynasty, which was undoubtedly a great thing. If it were any of them, they would definitely become sworn brothers without saying a word.
On the Sui army, behind Chen Kefu, a group of generals stood behind him. The general wanted to become sworn brothers of the Khitan barbarians. Although they felt a little abrupt and were too good to the Khitans, they just felt that it was a bit inappropriate.
But now the commander has surrendered himself and is willing to become sworn brothers with the Khitan barbarians. The Khitans have even spoken to refuse. This is definitely an insult to all the Sui army soldiers. In particular, Mao Yi and Lu Shishen have even more angry eyes. They have been guarding the young master for more than 20 years but have not obtained this qualification. Now that the barbarians have obtained such a precious opportunity, they dare to refuse, which is too much.
Only Li Shimin and Yu Qinming had their eyes shining and they looked at Chen Kefu with a smile on their faces.
"Bold, the Great Master wants to become sworn brother with you, that is a politeness, but you dare to refuse. I think you are just a group of Moge. The conspiracy to ambush our army is your conspiracy. Now I don't want to become sworn brother with my Great Master, I'm afraid I still think of your sworn brother Moge? Are you unwilling to betray your brotherly friendship and plan to rush back to Khitan and raise troops to attack us!" Lu Shishen roared and his eyes widened!
Lu Shishen's loud voice suddenly shocked the Khitans, but Chen Kefu stood aside and looked coldly, not speaking.
Now all the Khitans understood, and Chen Kefu was really angry.
clang clang clang!
Sharp sounds, and the elite Sui army guards behind Chen Kefu had already drawn out their swords and opened their eyes wide open. The king was humiliated by his ministers and the commander was humiliated, which was also a shame for the guards.
Li Xuanba, who was covered in blood and had some flesh and blood on the large Mo sword in his hand, even more snorted, dragged the Mo sword, and took big steps out of the formation, and planned to use one by one to kill one by one, sending all the Khitan barbarians who dared to insult his brother-in-law to be ghosts under the sword.
When the Khitans saw this scene, their faces turned pale. Just now, the Sui army had a smile like a flower like their relatives. Now that they were disagreeing, their faces turned around, they were about to add up their swords and weapons, which made all the Khitans suddenly remembered that these Sui army were not simple. Half a day ago, they were still a group of demons rushing out of hell. Just now they were confused by the smile on Chen Kefu's face, but now they already understood that no matter how much the devil smiled, they were still demons.
Seeing that Li Xuanba's large-sized Mo Dao had been lifted, the next moment, maybe a head would land.
At this time, I heard Abaogu laughing hard, "The Marquis's view is so good, that's a compliment to me. Just now, the young man was confused by the lard, and he was worried that the young man would be sworn in with the Marquis's reputation. Since the Marquis insisted, the young man naturally couldn't expect it. The young man would swear to the Marquis and would be the Marquis's little man in front of him, even if he died!"
"Yes, yes, it's really a good fate that the young patriarch of Abaoku is the fate of being the marquis' brother of the marquis. If the marquis doesn't dislike him, I, Watai, still want to cling to him and be the marquis' third brother." Watai flattered at the side with a rough voice, no more than Abaoku's unwillingness. He really wanted to be Chen Kefu's sworn brother, even if he was a younger brother, that would be fine.
Chen Kefu changed his face and heard that Abaoku and Watai were willing to become sworn brothers, and immediately changed from a dark face to a smile. He walked over and patted Abaoku and Watai on the shoulders and said, "I like a cheerful man. Since Brother Watai also intends to become sworn brothers, let's get sworn brothers right now. I am twenty-three years old this year and can only be the youngest. I don't know how many years the two brothers are. Which one is the elder brother and which is the second brother?"
Before Abaoku's words were heard, Watai shook his bearded face and said with a forced smile, "Since the marquis looks up to us and is willing to become sworn brothers with us, how can we just discuss the order of the age? The three of us, the marquis are the marquis of the upper country and the general, so we should naturally be the leader of the three of us and be the eldest brother. The young leader of Abaoku has always been a hero on the Khitan grassland and should be the second brother, but I am not capable of being sworn brothers. The eldest brother and second brother have not looked down on me and are willing to become sworn brothers with me, which makes me happy. I should be the third brother!"
After saying that, he immediately took off a wine bag from his waist, pulled out the dagger he had with him, and stroked the palm of his hand. The red blood immediately flowed into the wine bag along the palm lines. After a lot of dripping in, he turned around and handed the wine bag to Abaoku.
Abaoku had also been a sworn woman once, and he did this bloody sworn woman very calmly and orderly. After a few strokes, he also cut a knife on his hand and dripped a lot of blood in his wine bag.
When the wine bag was handed to him, Chen Kefu took it and took out the dagger. He hesitated for a while before gently making a small hole in his palm. He proposed to become a sworn brother with Abaoku, but he was also thinking about getting closer to their relationship. After all, he planned to gain a foothold in Liaodong. He was unwilling to make friends with the other party in everything as the Sui Dynasty. If the relationship could be transformed into a private relationship between Chen Kefu and the Yaonian tribe, then it would undoubtedly be of great help to his future journey.
Although this kind of forced swornship is a bit of a joke, Chen Kefu couldn't think of any other way at the moment. He was lazy to care about what method it was, as long as the purpose was achieved. He believed that with such an beginning, there would inevitably be a way to slowly win over the Khitan into his own ally.
However, this swornship was just a ceremony for an interest alliance, but now he still had to shoot himself, which really made Chen Kefu not very willing. After all, blood is an alliance, which is already a very formal alliance. It is no more than a verbal agreement. Blood is a descendant of the alliance, which is very binding in the eyes of the world.
Although he was not very willing, Chen Kefu finally slashed a lightly. Compared with his goal, the wound in front of him and the oath could not stop his decision.
After the three of them took turns drinking the strong wine mixed with the blood of three people, it means that the three of them will be the opposite brothers of Jinlan from then on.
"Brother!" After Abaoku and Watai drank the bloody wine, they naturally called out the elder brother. The people of the grassland valued such blood swornship. As long as they were not betrayal like Mogo, the sworn brothers would most of the time be closer than their own brothers.
