Fenggu Town still had garrison troops a few years ago, and there were not many people, about a hundred, who came from the town dozens of miles next door. However, after staying for a while, I found that this town didn't seem to need them, and just before they came, this town didn't even have a yamen. The garrison found that the town was a separate territory, with no rules and no one to control it, so they left on their own without even reporting to their superiors.

The reason is simple, there are not even restaurants here, there is no food supply, and no one can stand such a day.

And the 100 families in the town have an extremely simple way of life, they don't work, they hang out all day long, maybe they don't know what their meaning is in the town. The life supplies of these people are also very simple, that is, they are purchased from other places, and the forces behind them will buy them from other places, and they don't have to worry about their own lives anyway.

Perhaps they also know their calling.

It's about constantly killing, constantly getting information.

The Xiyue Dynasty was still martial, almost the same as the Yuanqing Dynasty. However, the former did not have a vast territory and a relatively good climate, so the Xiyue Dynasty could not raise many troops, which also made it difficult for the Xiyue Dynasty to march to the Central Plains, but since the Yuanqing unified the Spring and Autumn Period, Xiyue began to covet it constantly, and he found that if it was a few years later, not to mention that they would never have the opportunity to enter the Central Plains eastward, and even their land would be in jeopardy.

Therefore, the Xiyue Dynasty will send hundreds of fine works to Fenggu Town every year, and Yuanqing will also send eagles to Fenggu Town. Both sides know that since each side wants to know each other's information, why not be honest and set a place to exchange information?

Since then, Fenggu Town has begun to become an arena for fine craftsmen.

At first, Xiyue and Yuanqing thought that the pair of scholars in the town were each other's people, so they both sent people to stab the bottom of the line, but the people who were sent out did not survive, so they gave up. It wasn't until the two sides started a fight again that they realized that the two people were "third-party forces", and then they didn't care.

In fact, what kind of "third-party force" are the two scholars, in the words of the old man with a broken arm, they are just the old man begging for food in the small town, but they are harassed by these meticulous works every day. simply made it clear in the town a few years ago, and Xiyue and Yuanqing didn't dig out their minds to test it.

But at the end of the day, it's still the fists that have to be hard.

Even if you don't know which side is fine, even if it is fine, that little life is precious.

The peach-eyed boy still seems to have a grudge against the master's killing methods yesterday, and he didn't go to farming today as if he was angry. The old man saw it, but he didn't explain it. Just told the boy to read today's book, the boy absentmindedly "oh", hesitated, or moved a small chair to the yard to read.

When the old man caught a glimpse of the young man's demeanor, he noticed that the latter had not read the book, and was about to scold him loudly, but he swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and went back to his room to sleep with his hands behind his back.

Qi Feng really can't read the book today, he thought about it carefully yesterday, it's not a reason for the master to kill people all the time, one day, the enemy back then will definitely come to the door, even if the enemy has been knocked back several layers of the realm as the master said, but what if it is his fellow disciple brother, or master, or even apprentice?

Even if the strength is not as good as the master, but in the past three or two days, who can stand it?

The young man didn't want to see his master's other arm cut off, so he thought about it all night, whether to leave this place, according to this situation, this is not a safe place, not to mention that the Yuanqing Empire is not patient to start sending people to prepare to clear this place, that is, in the past three or two days, a person wearing a hat has come to assassinate the master, which is enough for the young man to tremble.

So Qi Feng was wondering if he could persuade the master to pack up his things and leave the town, but he knew that the master's personality was very stubborn.

Perhaps only in terms of stubbornness will the young man feel that the old man with a broken arm is a scholar.

What scholar is not stubborn? Are those who are not arrogant enough to read worthy of these three words?

But the young man thought about it again in a blink of an eye, this stubbornness and arrogance seem to be two different things. But now is not the time to discuss this, his mind is full of how to convince the master.

Qi Feng thought about the words while walking again and came to the door of the master.

He gritted his teeth and took a few deep breaths. Raising his right hand, he knocked lightly on the door twice, but it was very silent inside, and there was no movement, so he increased his strength, but there was still no one in the room to reply. The peach-eyed boy sighed, obviously knowing that the master didn't want to pay attention to him, so he turned and left.

It's just that the pace is a little heavier.

The old man with the broken arm lying on the bed looked at the ceiling and didn't know what to think.

----------------------------------------

The new guy in Fengxuanlou has also become more talkative in the past few days, as if he was moved by the proprietress, and finally willing to say a few more words, although it is still just a few words, but in the eyes of the proprietress and the other guys, it seems that it is enough.

Since the proprietress got drunk that night, she probably felt that she was too out of shape when she was drunk. I haven't looked for a new guy for a drink for days, or even a chat. However, after the new guy talked more, he took the initiative to chat with the proprietress, but he didn't talk about anything, but talked about the topic of wine.

But the proprietress didn't dare to say more, so she changed the topic while chatting.

Maybe the proprietress is afraid that after chatting and having fun, she will have a few more pots of daughter red.

Li Chengde likes to stand at the door when he has nothing to do, and he doesn't squat at the door like everyone else. Instead, he puts his hands behind his back and always likes to look out at the end of the street. The proprietress saw it and occasionally joked, saying how she looked like a lifeless old man at a young age. At this time, Li Chengde would always smile indifferently and reply, "I'm used to it."

The second prince is waiting for news, or waiting for someone.

A few months have passed, why hasn't his eldest brother moved? Or why didn't the woman in Fu'an Palace arrange manpower? They didn't send anyone to Gusu, not even a swallow, which made Li Chengde a little surprised, after learning from the failures of the previous years, he had already begun to develop the habit of laying out in advance, if he hadn't arranged a few chess pieces around him in advance, he really didn't dare to swagger in the city.

But it's a good day, except for the occasional drunken guest yelling at him. I didn't suffer much from the grievances, and the proprietress and other guys took good care of him, but I always felt that something was missing.

But whenever Li Chengde wanted to think about it carefully, he couldn't grasp it, as if he saw a life-saving straw when he was on the verge of drowning in the lake, but he couldn't catch it no matter how he swam over. Gradually, he didn't want to miss anything in his heart, but he became more and more active in his work day by day, and there were more and more gags with the boss's wife.

The other three guys in Fengxuan Building, one man and two women. The man's name is Aqing, and the woman's name is Chunshui and Qiujiang respectively. The two women look almost the same age as Li Chengde, and they are also a pair of sisters, the two sisters have similar personalities, quiet and delicate, and the elder sister does not have to be responsible for running errands in Fengxuan Building, but puts a guqin, and will play a few songs at night. The younger sister will hold a pipa and play it with her sister, but I heard the proprietress say that the two sisters are very miserable. And Aqing is a middle-aged man who looks honest and wooden, I heard that he used to live in the west, and he came to Suzhou to find someone.

In short, there is a huge Fengxuan Building, and it seems that everyone has an endless story to tell.

In the afternoon, there were only a few guests scattered in the hall of Fengxuan Building, and the guests were not noisy, ordering a few pots of Huang'an wine, accompanied by a few plates of peanuts and a few plates of pork, and drank one cup after another. Li Chengde saw that the restaurant was not very busy, so he also took a few peanuts from the back kitchen, put the peanuts on the table, and ate them there by himself.

The proprietress caught a glimpse of the new guy eating peanuts, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She walked over and asked softly, "This young man, can we eat a small plate of peanuts together?"

Li Chengde said heartily: "Who dares not to listen to the words of the boss?"

The proprietress scolded with a smile and said that why is her mouth so powerful recently, Li Chengde can't speak at this time, so as not to be able to resist the boss's words.

The sisters next to them saw it and shouted that they were hungry too, so they immediately leaned over to eat. Only the honest man looked at them with a smile from afar.

Soon a plate of peanuts was eaten, and Li Chengde went to serve two more plates. The proprietress felt that it was too boring to chew peanuts like this, so she asked the honest man to pick two pots of Huang'an wine.

The proprietress asked the men to sit down and drink a little wine, and the latter smiled and excused himself and said that he still had to take care of the guests, and the proprietress no longer forcibly persuaded him to drink. She poured it for the two sisters and Li Chengde, and smiled at Li Chengde as she poured: "Little wood, this wine is not drunk, it is very sweet, and it can't be talked about strengthening the body after drinking, but with this drink, my sister guarantees that you are full of energy and have endless energy." ”

Li Chengde originally wanted to refuse, but seeing that the cups of the two sisters on the table were also full, he thought that he really couldn't go if he didn't drink, so he didn't refuse.

Gradually, night fell, and a group of guests in the restaurant left, but then there were batches of them.

The two sisters seemed to drink better than expected, and they were not drunk at all. Chunshui and Qiujiang saw that there were more guests, so they were ready to give a few pieces of music to the guests in the restaurant, Li Chengde looked at them with suspicious eyes, and Chunshui smiled: "It's okay to drink a few more pots, you are too underestimated us, the proprietress can often pull us to accompany the wine before you come." Chunshui said as he glanced at the proprietress with resentment.

The proprietress took another drink and pretended nothing had happened.

But Li Chengde couldn't hear it clearly, didn't he ask the two sisters to drink now? He gasped and took a drink in embarrassment... It's a small cup.

Qiu Jiang caught a glimpse of Li Chengde's move and gave the latter a roll of his eyes.

What a big man, drinking is not as happy as a little girl.
