Chapter Twenty-Nine: Poor Figures

"I am a businessman in Hongqing County, called Qian Daqing, reselling some mountain delicacies and game, you can go to Qian Ji to find me if you need it in the future, and I will give you a cheaper. ”

"Oh, how is Hongqing County, and the people are still rich?"

"You're from a foreign country, aren't you?"

"Exactly. ”

"Hey, let me tell you, don't mention it, every time the rent is paid in the villages outside the county, there are a large number of people who buy children to pay off their debts, and there are not a few people in the county who are begging, poor, and unable to live. ”

"Why is this?" The middle-aged man became interested: "As far as I know, Hongqing County has a good geographical location and good grain production, how can it be like you said, even life is difficult?"

Qian Daqing lowered his voice: "Hongqing County, you have to collect rent twice a year, once for the county order and handed over to the imperial court, and once for the Song family, which is even more ruthless than the imperial court.

"It's really against them! When did Hongqing County in Great Qin become their Song family's private territory!"

The middle-aged man slapped his thigh, looking extremely angry.

"Shhhhhhhhh

"The big prison? Why did the Song family send people to the big prison! The county order didn't care?"

People say that Hongqing County only hears of the Song family and does not hear about the county order! In Hongqing County, it is better to offend the county order than to offend the Song family. ”

"How unreasonable!"

The middle-aged man looked rather angry.

Fang Xile glanced at him secretly, this person said that he was a foreigner, but he was particularly concerned about the affairs of Hongqing County.

"Hongqing County has always been like this, and we are used to the county order. ”

"Senior sister!"

"What? I can't tell the truth?" Lori pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Haha", Qian Daqing laughed: "Your senior brother is right, you must know that the disaster is out of the mouth! ”

"We are disciples of the Iron Sword Sect, my name is Zhang Chao, and this is my junior sister Yu Miaomiao. ”

"It turned out to be a senior disciple of the Iron Sword Gate, so could this be Miss Yu, the daughter of the master of the Yu Gate?" Qian Daqing was in awe: "The master of the Yu Gate is frank and open, hoeing the strong and helping the weak, which is really admirable." It's a pity that he was killed by an adulterer and was injured in bed, and I don't know if the two of them can find a way to treat the master of the door. ”

At the mention of this, Yu Miaomiao's expression was gloomy: "We have been trying to find a way, and then I heard from Brother Song that there is..."

"Senior sister!" Zhang Chao interrupted Yu Miao Miao quietly.

After that, he threw his hand at a few people and said, "I'm really sorry to disturb everyone Yaxing with my own trivialities." ”

Qian Daqing and the middle-aged man shook their heads, as soon as they heard these things, they were the privacy of the Iron Sword Gate, even if Yu Miaomiao was willing to say it, they didn't dare to listen to it.

It seems that the two senior brothers and sisters of Tiejianmen came up the mountain for something.

"Who is this girl, and what is she called?"

Qian Daqing looked at Fang Xile and decisively changed the topic.

"Yinjiang County, Fang Xile"

"It turned out to be Miss Fang. I see that the girl is in the dust, she must have come all the way over the mountain, why not go to the county seat, it can be lighter. ”

Fang Xile's expression was embarrassed, and the county seat on the road was cleverly avoided by her.

"Well, if you're in a hurry, I'll go straight to the mountain road. ”

"That girl's martial arts should be good, most people don't dare to walk from the mountains, like me, I took four guards and walked cautiously. ”

Qian Daqing seems to be extremely talkative.

"Come, the chicken is roasted, come and taste it, the outside is crispy and the inside is tender, and the meat is delicious, which can be called a must. ”

Yu Miaomiao took the lead in picking up a piece, regardless of Zhang Chao's obstruction, she stuffed it into her mouth, and then her eyes widened: "Well, it's delicious!"

"Miss Fang is also here to try it?"

Fang Xile picked up the chicken legs, narrowed his eyes, and then feasted on it.

The middle-aged man also took a piece, and the guard behind him stepped forward and pulled out a silver needle to test for poison.

"Li Xian, it doesn't have to be like this. ”

Qian Daqing didn't care: "When you go out, it's better to be cautious." But I'm a good eater, good at drinking, I can't walk when I see it, if I encounter good wine and good food, I have to eat it. ”

The middle-aged man tore off a piece of it for his wife first, and tasted it himself slowly, but the guard behind him stood motionless, as if the aroma of roast chicken had no attraction to him.

Qian Daqing noticed this: "Why are you so nervous about not drinking wine and eating meat?" ”

The guard frowned and snorted: "In this small temple, how can there be four acquired martial artists gathered in one night, and the acquired martial artists are not the cabbages that can be seen everywhere. ”

The temple was quiet for a moment, everyone was not stupid, they had already noticed this matter, although they were puzzled, but they also tacitly understood that no one asked, but quietly guarded each other.

Only Yu Miaomiao was unhappy and said: "What do you mean, saying that we are bad people? I think you are a bad person with a fierce and evil appearance!"

"Senior sister!"

"Li Xian!"

The middle-aged man and Zhang Chao shouted at the same time, smiling apologetically at each other.

Zhang Chao asked tentatively: "This gentleman actually has an acquired martial artist as an escort, it's really not simple." ”

"He is the person I saved unintentionally, and if he stayed with me and said that he was repaying his kindness, I said that it was not necessary to do so, but he didn't listen, as for me, I am just a teacher, not worth mentioning. ”

"I see. ”

Zhang Chao nodded, not knowing whether to believe it or not.

"Hmm-"

The lady, who had not spoken, suddenly clutched her stomach and screamed.

"Madam, what's wrong?" The middle-aged man reached out to help and exclaimed, "Madam, why are your hands so cold?"

Escort Li took the first step, his hand on his pulse, and frowned.

"What's wrong?"

"The yin qi in the body is suddenly sheng, which is strange. ”

At this moment, the middle-aged man also held his stomach and trembled, followed by Senior Brother and Sister Yu and Fang Xile, who were cross-legged and desperately resisting the yin qi in their bodies.

"Food is poisonous!"

Li Xian brushed out his saber and pointed at Qian Daqing.

At this time, Qian Daqing's smiling expression that had been hanging on his face disappeared, his whole face was expressionless, there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth were exaggeratedly curled.

The four guards behind him turned out to have exactly the same expression as Qian Daqing, and five pairs of eyes looked at Li Xian strangely.
