How Paguguai entered the city of Amauroti; how Banuzhi married King Anaki; how he made him sell green soy sauce① After this astonishing triumph, Pagoda ordered Gabalin to return first to the city of Amauroti, where he announced how he had captured the king of Anaki, and how he had defeated all his enemies.After hearing the news, the residents of the city immediately lined up a neat team, played triumphant songs, and came out of the city to meet him. The people welcomed him into the city with joy, and bonfires were lit everywhere in the city, and the streets and alleys were full of round tables. , piled high with food.The golden age had begun again, and how happily they celebrated with food and drink.

But Paiguguay summoned all the members of Parliament, and said to them: "Everyone, as the saying goes, you should strike while the iron is hot; this sentence is also true for us. Before we disband, I want to recover all the land of the thirsty people with one effort. Therefore, anyone who is willing to follow me Those who go, hope that after drinking, they are ready to go tomorrow, because I will start tomorrow. I don't need more people to help me capture that area, because I think it is already in my hands; But I see that there are too many people in the city here, too many to turn around in the street; so I will take them to the country of thirsty people, and give them all the land there, it is a beautiful land, Rich, fertile, and better than anywhere in the world, as some of you who have been there know well. So anyone who is willing to go, wishes to prepare as I have just said."

The details of the meeting and the resolutions made at the meeting were announced in the city. On the second day, the number of people gathered in the square in front of the palace, excluding women and children, was 1,856,000. As many as eleven.So the great army set out straight for the land of the thirsty, in the same order as when the descendants of Israel came out of Egypt and crossed the Red Sea. But before going on with the account of this expedition, I intend to say how Banurge arranged for his captive, King Anarchy.He did not forget what Ebesdemon had said about the treatment of kings and rich men in this world after death, and what menial occupations were required to get by.

So, one day, he dressed the king in a ragged little blouse, sort of like the strips of Albanian head-wrapping, and a pair of wide navy trousers and no shoes, "because," he said, Said, "Shoes will make him blind himself3." And there was a little blue cap with a long feather in it—no, I think it was two—and a turquoise Banuge said that this dress is suitable for him, because it is in line with his "wrong mind" ④. Having dressed him thus, Panurge brought him before Paguguet, and said: "Do you know this guy?" "Not at all," said Paiguguet. "Here is a king who has been boiled three times; I will make him a good man. These ghost kings are nothing but bulls, who will only bully the poor people for their unjust and hateful preferences. Apart from invading others, he doesn’t know anything, he can’t do anything. I’m going to give him a job and tell him to sell green soy sauce. Come on, yell: ‘Who wants green soy sauce?’”

① A soy sauce made from ginger juice and green radish juice, usually used as a seasoning for fish. ① The story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt can be found in Chapters 12 and 13 of "Old Testament? Exodus", but it does not mention whether their order is good or not. ② "Albanians" refers to the light cavalry of Louis XII. Most of them are Greeks, dressed like Turks, wearing pointed round caps on their heads, and wrapped in strips of cloth in the color of the national flag. ③ Having shoes to wear will make him forget that he is a prisoner. ④ "Mischief" (pervers) has the same pronunciation as "blue-green" (pers et vert).

⑤ The more times the sugar is boiled in the pot, the higher the quality, which means that it is the best. The hapless king yelled. "It's too low," said Panurge; he took King Anarchy's ear, and said, "Speak up, in the key of G, and sing, sting, row, and more. Yes, devil! You have a really good voice." Yes; you see, I'd be happier not being a king than anything else." Paiguguet was interested in everything, and I dare say he was the most agreeable little fellow that came within this cane distance.Since then, Anaki has sold green soy sauce. Two days later, Panurge matched an old whore for him, and personally arranged for their marriage, prepared delicious sheep's head, roast pork with mustard, garlic sausage - and sent it to Paguguay as well. Wu Tuozi, which he thought was very good, ate them all--and plenty of perry and cider; and dancing music, which he hired a blind man to play for them.

After the banquet was over, Panuji led them into the palace to meet Paguguai, pointing to the bride and saying to Paguguai: "Don't worry about her farting." "Why?" asked Paiguguay. "Because she's a mess," Panurge said. "Why?" asked Paiguguet. "Didn't you see," Panurge said, "when you burn chestnuts in the fire, if you put them down whole, it will fart like crazy, and if you don't let it make noise, you have to cut it with a knife first." break. The bride's bottom has been broken long ago, so she will never fart. "

Paguguay gave them a small house near the lower street as a residence, and also gave them a large stone pestle for pounding soy sauce.There they settled the little family and became the most desirable green soy sauce sellers Utopia had ever seen.But then I was told that his woman beat him like a lime-thumper, and that hapless stupid fellow couldn't even parry, what a fool.
