Chapter 63 The Drooling Chinese Soul
Chapter 63 The Drooling Chinese Soul
"Which LS are they from?" Dany asked.
"Khal Ogo's LS," Ago said casually, without any indignation at the tragic fate of his compatriots. "The slaves that Bono sold to Meereen were too young to be gladiators, but too old to be trained as Unsullied. They can't be warriors, so they can only be sold to manor owners in other city-states.
They are not very useful, and the price is not expensive. Forty silver coins, I don't know what my blood of blood bought them for?"
"They are centaurs!" Dany emphasized in a louder voice.
"What's wrong with centaurs? Everyone knows that after being defeated, they will either die or become slaves." Ago said casually.
"There are no slaves in my kalsa," Dany waved her whip and shouted, "Untie their slave collars. I want to ask them if they are willing to join the kalsa of the Mother of Dragons, become the people of the Mother of Dragons, and fight for the Mother of Dragons."
"Your Highness, how about you ask them first and then untie the collars and shackles for the obedient ones?" Whitebeard reminded in a low voice: "Ogo's kalsa was defeated by your husband. There are twenty of them, but we only have seven. If they scatter, we can't stop them."
"What I need is the loyalty of Dothraki free men, not slaves." Dany shook her head.
"They won't run away." She added.
The old man sighed helplessly, turned over and dismounted, and protected Dany with the strong man Belwas.
Ago and three centaurs stepped forward to untie the chains and collars for the slaves.
"Ding ding dong dong!" Soon a pile of chains rose from the ground.
The centaur slaves moved their wrists and turned their stiff necks, feeling the long-lost lightness.
Dany asked, "Do you know who I am?"
Some of the centaurs looked at each other, some looked at Dany secretly, but no one came out to talk.
"Slaves don't have to speak, and I don't need slaves. If anyone still remembers that they are centaurs, come out and answer my questions immediately." Dany said coldly.
"Khaleesi." A young man hesitated.
Immediately, a voice followed, "You are Khaleesi."
"Khaleesi of Khal Drogo."
"I have seen you, Khaleesi."
No one called her the Mother of Dragons. They probably didn't know about dragons yet.
"Would you like to join my Khals?" she asked again.
"Yes."
First one person said yes, followed by a series of objections, "Women cannot lead the khals."
"Drogo is dead, you should go to Horseking City and become a dosh khaleen."
Hearing their words, Dany laughed happily, "Very good, you have finally regained some of the wildness of the centaurs.
Aggo, break them up when you go back, take two people out of each team of ten, fill in two new people, and you can form two more teams of ten."
"Yes." Aggo nodded and accepted the order, not caring about the opinions of the centaurs who had just removed the slave collars.
"They did not agree to be loyal to you." On the way to the next dock, Astan asked doubtfully.
Dany smiled and explained, "I don't care if they pledge allegiance to me immediately. My previous actions were only to stimulate them and get them out of the slave shackles in their hearts as soon as possible.
The centaurs are indeed barbaric, without a sense of nation and country, and have no empathy for their companions becoming slaves.
But because of this, they are no longer bound by the ties of 'nationality' and ethnicity.
Old kalpas are disbanded and new kalpas are formed every moment on the grassland.
As long as they find that my kalpas are indeed kalpas, they will soon be 100% loyal to me... until the moment I die."
At that time, Drogo did not include Ogo's people in his kalpas, mainly because the size of his own kalpas was close to the limit.
Fifty thousand roaring warriors and more than one hundred thousand tribesmen were already the largest kalpas on the Great Grass Sea, and they could not take in extra people.
Walking through the three or four miles of docks, docks and warehouses, all the way to the end of the horseshoe-shaped port, ships from the Summer Islands, Westeros and the nine free trade cities were required to dock here.
The docks prepared for foreign merchants were not as neat and orderly as before.
Prostitutes wore faded gauze colored skirts, raised their bare thighs and flirted with sailors, and vendors sold their small commodities, drinks, and food directly between ships.
There were more sailors, sailors from dozens of countries in the East and the West wandering around the docks, holding bottles of wine, hugging women, or fighting with each other, and people around them cheered loudly. The strange accents merged into a noisy sound.
"Bevos is hungry, Whitebeard, buy me some food." Passing by a barbecue stall, the strong man Bevo shouted to Astan.
The old man glared at him, but also fulfilled his duty as a servant and bought him a bag of grilled fish.
The large white fish meat was smeared with spices, whale oil, honey, etc., roasted until golden, and finally sprinkled with fennel powder and clear pepper salt. "Gudong." Aggo swallowed his saliva and said, "Khaleesi, I want to eat it too."
"Go buy it yourself." Dany looked at Jorah and Whitebeard again, "Do you want it?"
"No." The two said in unison, and looked at each other after that, as if they understood what the other was thinking. Finally, Jorah explained, "It's too chaotic here, there are too many people, eating is easy to be distracted, and I can't protect you."
Dany nodded. She herself had similar vigilance and didn't eat food bought on the street or drink alcohol sold by vendors.
The centaurs were not used to eating fish. Aggo used a handful of copper coins to buy a bunch of honey roasted mice for each centaur.
The fat mice were as big as half a bamboo rat, and they were roasted crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a rich fragrance. The centaurs' mouths were full of oil.
"Khaleesi, you are here!" Captain Grole was standing by the gambling pit watching the beast fighting competition. Dany and her group moved too much, and Aggo was still shouting "Make way for the Mother of Dragons", so he immediately realized that the guest he was waiting for had arrived.
The old Pentos sailor came to the side of the little silver horse, and amid the loud calls of the sailors and the cries of the animals, he opened his voice and shouted to Dany: "Khaleesi, three ships, one sea ship, and two rowing boats.
The sea ship 'Cedulion' is moored at the end of the dock, and the rowing boats 'Summer Sun' and 'Joke Yoso' are anchored outside the flood control dike. You and your men will take the spacious sea ship, and I will take you there."
Dany nodded and let him lead the horse's bit to the end of the dock.
"Wow!" A cry of surprise suddenly came from the side of the gambling pit. Dany turned her head and opened it. She found a stone pit with an opening of seven or eight meters in diameter and two or three meters deep on the flat ground. Two animals were fighting inside. To be more precise, a pangolin-like animal was killing a half-human-high red-haired hunting dog.
The red dog was as helpless as a rag doll that met a naughty child, and was torn to pieces by the pangolin.
Amid the splattering of blood, the sailors at the fence exclaimed with satisfaction, while others cursed, cursing the dead dog for being useless and causing him to lose money in gambling.
"How can a pangolin be so big? It's bigger than a lion." Dany asked in surprise.
"Pangolin?" Blackbeard Grolai shook his head, "That's a basilisk. It has eight legs. Didn't you notice? It's much more ferocious than a pangolin. The largest basilisk can be twice the size of a male lion. It's the most terrifying monster in Yi Ti."
"Yi Ti." Dany raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "Are there many basilisks in Yi Ti?"
"Very many, appearing in groups in the jungle. Except for the zebra people in the north, the Yi Ti people are most afraid of this creature. In the Colosseum, basilisks can also be called the overlords of the generation. Many animals are no match for them." Blackbeard sighed.
"Yi Ti is really not China." Dany muttered in a low voice.
"What?" Blackbeard tilted his head, "Khaleesi, what did you say?"
"How does lizard meat taste? Why don't the Yi Ti people eat them?" she asked.
The pangolins, which are as big as cats, have been eaten by the Chinese people and become endangered animals. Lizards, which are bigger, have more meat, and seem to be more chewy, are simply a delicacy given by God.
They have become a natural disaster in Yi Ti. How dare they imitate the ancient Chinese people, wear tall hats and wide belts, and call themselves the "Golden Dynasty"?
Whitebeard on the side shook his head and said, "Lizard blood is poisonous. Stone lizard poison is extracted from lizard blood. It can cause muscle atrophy, nerve paralysis, and petrification.
It is said that the faceless men of Braavos will use lizard blood to make spices. When the spices are applied to cooked meat, they can emit an extremely tempting fragrance, but no matter human or animal, they will go crazy and violent after eating.
Rats infected with lizard venom even dare to fight with lions."
"That's it, only the craziest people dare to eat lizard meat." Blackbeard nodded in agreement.
There is such a miraculous effect?
It is no longer a delicacy, but a divine ingredient!
Can anything be more poisonous than pufferfish poison?
And the aroma is so tempting, this is courting death!
Dany decided that when conditions permit, she must make the lizard into an edible delicacy.
Otherwise, it would be unfair to her soul as a Chinese.
"Speaking of poison." Dany said thoughtfully, "Zaro once gave me a silver collar inlaid with magic amethyst, saying that it can avoid poison. Before I had time to test it, the guy took it back. Do you think that thing can really avoid poison?"
"Your Highness, the complete guard system has a poison test, which is much more useful than those deceptive things." White Beard said proudly.
"Not all of them are lies," Blackbeard shook his head. "You in Westeros value chivalry, and men often use swords to solve problems. But in Essos, conspiracy and poison are like dust in the air - it is difficult to see clearly, but it is everywhere.
The trade governors and city-state lords who died from poisoned wine may be more than those who died of old age. The magic crystals blessed by powerful magicians can detect or be immune to toxins in wine and food to a certain extent."
It seems that I have to find an opportunity to get a magic amethyst .
As they talked, they came to the end of the graystone pier, where a sea ship that amazed Dany was moored.
Like a big fat dumpling, Dany estimated that it was more than 100 meters long and more than 40 meters wide. Not counting the deck, you can see the windows on the fourth floor.
What a magnificent ship!
"This is a sea-going ship. It has no oars and can only sail with the sea wind." Blackbeard proudly explained the structure and transportation capacity of the sea-going ship to Dany, just like introducing his son who was admitted to Tsinghua University.
"Not to mention your more than 200 horsemen, even if there are twice as many, we can easily accommodate them. Not to mention my Saidullion, each of the rowing boats parked at the flood control embankment has 200 rowers."
