Chapter 652 The Seven Immortals Welcome Guests!

In 117 BC, Huo Qubing, the champion of the Han Empire, was assassinated by Princess Lingyu of Loulan and died of illness in Loulan.

After his death, his body was white and transparent and could not be buried. After being carried out of Loulan to the south for more than 30 miles, he was forced to bury him in the local desert.

Thirty thousand soldiers waited for the place where the general was buried, and sent people to Chang'an to report the funeral.

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty learned that the general died for his country, he looked up to the sky and cried loudly, saying that the sky has no eyes, and the general died!
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was in great grief, sent his minister to order Su Huo to lead the mission to the Western Regions to welcome back the coffin of the great general.

After Su Huo left Yumen Pass in the west, the scouts in front urgently reported to Zheng Ping, the deputy commander of the Great Khan's Western Expedition Army, that the angel group would arrive soon.

In order to welcome the arrival of the angel and welcome the spirit pivot of the general, Zheng Ping discussed with the generals and decided to welcome Suhuo in the way of "seven immortals welcome guests" in the old Loulan custom of the Western Regions.

The so-called seven immortals welcome guests is the most noble etiquette when welcoming nobles in the Western Regions: Find seven beautiful married women, kill them, and soak their bodies in tung oil, arsenic and other medicines for 21 days.

These 21 days are similar to the "three sevens" after the dead in the folklore of the Central Plains.

After the 'Seven Fairies' soaked Panax notoginseng, the corpse would be taken out of the potion and exposed to the sun for seven days. Every day when the sun was at its peak, the corpse would be brushed with tung oil—in this way, after seven consecutive days, the corpse would turn golden, but because Because of being soaked in arsenic and other painful drugs, the body does not lose moisture and is lifelike, but the color has become golden.

It took a month, and after the seven fairies were made, a corpse would be placed every mile on the way when the distinguished guests came—the last corpse would stand in front of the master's door and welcome the distinguished guests together with the master...

This is the most solemn reception of the Seven Immortals in the history of the Western Regions. It is similar to the "Nine Corpses Welcome" in the Central Plains, except that the nine male corpses are replaced by beautiful women.

(The ceremony of welcoming guests with nine corpses was originally the etiquette used by the emperor of Zhou Dynasty to meet Jiuyi (Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi, Nan, Gu, Qing, Dafu). It is an ancient ritual that can only be used by the emperor.)
The reason why the "Seven Immortals welcome guests" in the Western Regions are beautiful women is because the Western Regions are vast but sparsely populated, so women who can give birth are the most respected.

These seven 'fairies' can't just find seven women randomly, and there are quite strict rules during the period.

First of all, an example must be selected, called the oiran among the seven fairies.

After the oiran is selected, the next six women, at least with the men of the oiran, all have that kind of relationship between men and women (a man has many wives, which is normal in ancient times of polygamy), which means seven fairies It is a family, and a family goes out to receive the most noble guest.

In the ancient Western Regions, those who could afford the "Seven Immortals Greeting Guests" were those from the families of princes and nobles, ordinary people and wealthy landowners. Even if they had seven wives, they would not be willing to kill them as a welcome gift. for.

Just because he was reluctant to kill all the women he liked, so when the "Seven Immortals Greeting Guests" arrived around 130 BC, the rules changed a lot: the host decided to use the "Seven Immortals Greeting Guests" gift to welcome Supreme After the VIPs, you only need to select a woman in the 'harem' to be the 'Oiran', and the remaining six women only need to be found from the slaves.

Of course, after finding the other six 'slave fairies', the master will have sex with them, turn them into his own, and kill them to become golden welcome fairies.

Since the method of making the "Seven Immortals Greeting Guests" has been changed, the princes and nobles of the ancient Western Regions will no longer care about the first six "Welcome Fairies" after receiving such lofty etiquette, but value the last one the most. , that is, oiran.

Whose woman is the oiran, then who is the host of the "Seven Immortals Welcome Guests".

This is why the oiran is the most important.

The other six women, even if they died, were just funeral objects for the oiran.

After Huo Qubing captured Loulan back then, the most indispensable thing was the beauties from the Western Regions. If a single man is fighting outside, is there any reason why he should not be a womanizer after he is done?
Therefore, when Zheng Ping decided to welcome Su Huo with the noble way of "Seven Immortals Greeting Guests", he didn't have to worry about not being able to find the seven fairies, and all of them were women around the general—let them become the seven fairies welcoming guests. For them, it is a supreme honor.

Although the Great Han Shangshu ordered Su Huo to arrive in the Western Regions, he did not bring the body of the General back to Chang'an (the body of the General has been designated as water and remained in the land of the Western Regions forever), but he enjoyed the most noble "Seven Immortals" in the Western Regions. The ceremony of welcoming guests was recorded and passed into the Central Plains.

Of course, this kind of cruel "seven immortals welcoming guests" is the same as the "nine corpses welcoming guests" in the Central Plains. They were both condemned by the Confucianists in the Central Plains, and were gradually abandoned by the orthodox princes and nobles.

The welcoming ceremony of the Seven Immortals appeared for the last time at the end of the Tang Dynasty. An Lushan, who was the envoy of Fan Yang at the time, used this noble etiquette to welcome his ally Shi Siming and discuss the anti-Tang plan.

Since then, the principle of welcoming guests by the Seven Immortals and the Nine Corpses has never appeared in history.

After talking about the allusions of 'Oiran' and 'Seven Immortals Greeting Guests', Yan Moji pursed her lips and said, "Since Jie Hongyan lost the "Angui Jing" in the Eastern Palace, she escaped from Jinghua and buried her name on the ground, she was identified by the higher authorities. Oiran. In other words, making her an oiran is the most severe punishment for her apostasy."

What Yan Moji said, Gao Fei sounded "fascinated". I really didn't expect there to be such a cruel way of welcoming guests——seven beautiful women who became golden corpses, standing in front of each other every mile. One will appear, what a shocking scene it must be, the people who are welcomed will not be proud!

Slowly, Gao Fei also figured out something: After Xie Hongyan became an oiran due to her unlucky luck, according to the ancient ritual of "seven immortals welcoming guests", the six women who became "fairies" with her must all get Like her, with the same man.

Because of this, Yan Moji was sure that Xie Hongyan would become Gaofei's woman sooner or later, and that Yan Hong and Qin Chengcheng, who had already become Gaofei's women, disappeared mysteriously.

Mu Tianya was supposed to be one of them, but she died in the Dynasty clubhouse.

Then, there will definitely be four women who have an intimate relationship with Gao Fei, who will disappear mysteriously—after they gather seven people, the Seven Fairies will be born.

After thinking of this, Gao Fei shivered violently: In this way, Liang Jiaojiao, Bai Ci, and even Qin Ziyang and Nier, who are far away abroad, might be captured by them. Go, make seven fairies?
The cigarette was finished a long time ago, but Gao Fei still took a deep puff and asked the biggest doubt: "Why should Xie Hongyan be regarded as my woman? It seems that any man can be her man, right? "

"You're right. According to Xie Hongyan's beauty, as long as she thinks, there shouldn't be many men who would refuse to be her man."

Yan Moji sighed: "Oh, it's a pity that Xie Hongyan's first husband passed away long ago. After she hid in southern Jinan, the vegetable grower who fell in love with her was also killed by her in the vegetable garden. In the field..."

As soon as Yan Moji said this, Gao Fei interrupted: "Wait, I once heard Xie Hongyan say that after she came to southern Hebei, there was indeed a vegetable farmer who liked her. The place where she lived before, It belonged to the vegetable farmer. But she told me that the vegetable farmer was murdered by others, how could you say she was killed?"

Yan Moji sneered: "Hmph, when she talked about the cause of the vegetable farmer's death, of course she wouldn't say that she killed her, otherwise she would have to go to jail and be regarded as an ungrateful person."

"So she lied to me?"

Gao Fei squeezed the cigarette butts into a ball: "She killed the vegetable farmer who took her in and embezzled his family's property. It's really thanks to the vegetable farmer for taking such good care of her. She is really a wolf."

Yan Moji didn't quite agree with Gao Fei's statement, and explained: "In fact, she was forced to do this because the vegetable farmer is not dead, and if they become a couple, then the other six women will be implicated. She herself Will die, our men will find six other 'confidantes' for that vegetable farmer."

"The more I listen, the more confused I become."

Gao Fei rubbed his cheeks vigorously, and said: "If Xie Hongyan killed the vegetable farmer to protect herself and the other six women. Even in these years, this is also the reason why she refused to accept men, then why are your people here? When she has no man, do you still want to take her away?"

Yan Moji hesitated for a long time before saying in a low voice: "Because time is running out. Xie Hongyan could protect herself by not looking for a man in the past, but as that date approached, the people above couldn't wait any longer. Take her away and force her to marry a certain man—congratulations, you have become that man. Before that day comes a month ago, you will marry her, and then she will disappear completely."

Gao Fei asked in a strange voice: "Why must it be me?"

Yan Moji replied indifferently: "It's strange, I can only blame you for having unreasonable thoughts about her. The most important point is that the women around you seem to be very beautiful. A beautiful woman is the best candidate for the Seven Fairies .”

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey."

Gao Fei laughed strangely: "Are you so sure that I will be willing to let my woman be taken away by you and not resist?"

Yan Moji stared at Gao Fei with wide eyes, and said seriously: "Gao Fei, I know you are very powerful, and you are also very powerful in China. But you are still our opponent, and you will never know how strong we are. What's more, you have already taken Wangyou Powder now, and you can't do it if you don't want to. I give you a piece of advice."

Gao Fei asked, "What advice?"

Yan Moji said softly: "Don't harm women at will. You get their bodies, but you may ruin their lives—even if you don't harm them, we will find suitable women for you. Yours The fate of wives and concubines being made into 'Seven Fairies' can no longer be changed because time is running out."

"Stop hurting women at will?"

Gao Fei frowned a few times, and asked, "Then can you tell me, who are the people you greeted when you spared no effort to make 'Seven Immortals Welcome Guests'?"

Yan Moji shook her head.

Gao Fei asked, "I don't want to say it, or can't I say it?"

Yan Moji sighed: "It's not that I can't say it, it's not that I don't want to say it, I want to say it, I can say it, but according to my position in the organization, I'm not qualified to know who this person who enjoys the gift of 'Seven Immortals Welcomes Guests' is." who."

Gao Fei looked into Yan Moji's eyes without saying a word, his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Yan Moji looked at him without blinking.

After the two looked at each other for almost a minute, Gao Fei took the lead to look away, and said lightly: "If I have the opportunity to tell your leader, just say that I will not let them hurt the people around me, even if I take Wangyou powder .”
