Chapter 126: Distinguished Guest

Luoshan guards the Xijiang River, has the advantage of water transportation, the geographical location is not bad, and there are resources such as gold ore and timber in the mountains, so it is not very difficult to talk about wealth, and it is not very difficult to mix food and clothing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info But in fact, although the people in the mountains can get some gold from the water, and can occasionally transport some wood out of the mountains to sell, their livelihood has always been difficult.

The treacherous environment and rough roads make it difficult for large quantities of goods to move. Rolling mountains, tall trees, and rich shade shade shade shade shade the sun. Even on a sunny day, many places look eerie and terrifying, and people walking in them, listening to the howling mountain wind, smelling the fishy smell wafting in the wind and the howling of small beasts, most of them will have a chill down their backs and their hairs stand on end. When it rains, the mountain road becomes slippery, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss. In more places, there is no road, and it is all up to people to step on a passage.

In this harsh environment, not many people are willing to move, and even if outsiders come, it is a question of whether the mountain people welcome it. After all, his ancestors worked hard to open up a world suitable for life, and at this time, outsiders came in to get a piece of the pie, and no one would be happy.

The endless mountains block the road, and there is not much contact between the mountains and the outside of the mountains, resulting in a relatively closed personality of the mountain people, who do not like to communicate with the outside world. Occasionally, I trade with businessmen for necessities, but I always feel that I have been deceived, and I can't help but curse behind my back, and sometimes I kill people when I clash with them.

There are few people who can trade here, and it is not uncommon to oppress the mountain people or attack the lone women when they are strong. The two sides are enemies of each other, and the plan to rely on external forces to improve their lives naturally does not work.

There is a part of the land in the mountains that can be cultivated, but it is difficult to obtain output if it is necessary to remove stones, level the fields, plough the fields with a large number of iron farming tools, and have enough animal power. The barbarians lacked both iron and knowledge, and for a long time used the slash-and-burn farming model, the harvest was not much, and the income from farming could not be filled at all, and they could only rely on buying or looting to obtain food.

In order to buy life-saving food, the mountain people have to send out the golden sand, medicinal herbs or large trees that they have collected at the risk of their lives in exchange for food. And when these things go out of the mountains, they have to be troubled by the tax collectors, looking for opportunities to extort money, and then seeing that the material conditions of the people in the city are much stronger than their own, but they pay less labor, and it is common to feel dissatisfied. In fact, hatred is also generated in this kind of life gap, so when the leader gives the order to go out and attack the city, or kill those who come to grab land, they will not hesitate in the slightest.

In the vast mountains and forests, with more than 100,000 residents, it is difficult to say who must be born thieves, but it cannot be said who must be kind and harmless, everything depends on the environment and timing.

So many people don't actually live together, but are divided into small tribes based on the cave. The population of a single tribe is limited, and 1,800 people is the limit. There are also cases where tribes often fight for resources and even destroy each other. It is precisely because of this that although there are many mountain people, they do not pose much threat to the government, and it is generally enough to support one group of mountain people to suppress the other. It wasn't until the appearance of the handicap that this situation changed completely, and the status of the barbarians in the hearts of the government was getting higher and higher, and they had to be cautious and cautious when taking action against them.

There is no king law in the mountains, fists are the truth, Pan Sheng is the best in the mountains and forests in the art industry, and he is fair and strategic, so he naturally becomes the most convincing leader in these tribes. With his art and prestige, he forcibly united the tribes, so that the originally scattered mountain people became a united whole, and even attacked the government, killing officials and seizing seals from indiscriminate attacks to planned actions, and the entire Luoshan finally became the climate.

As far as the mountain people are concerned, they have provoked the bottom line of the government several times, and the government can only back down, which makes them taste the sweetness, and their courage begins to grow. The vast empire, perhaps not as strong as it seems, may be able to gain more ...... Driven by this kind of thinking, the mountain people are becoming more and more bold in their actions, and even if a large number of officers and soldiers are gathered outside the mountains at the moment, they are actually not afraid.

At the beginning, the government used 100,000 soldiers to sweep Luoshan, but it was just a show, as long as he hid in the mountains and forests to avoid the limelight, it would be fine. The mountain people who have this kind of thinking don't pay attention to the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers at the moment, even if Pan Sheng himself doesn't take the officers and soldiers too seriously. What he's going to do now is something big!

Be the king, be the king of Luoshan. Accepting the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and becoming the king of this party is the biggest ideal of Pansheng. He knew that in Guangxi, some leaders in a similar situation to himself were canonized by the imperial court and became Tusi, and legally had the right to rule this mountain forest, and his position could be passed on to his children and grandchildren in the future. Even the government cannot interfere with its own actions. Now he is obviously the lord of this Luo Mountain, but he can't get the corresponding status, which is not fair.

To achieve great things, there must be scholars. Although he is illiterate, he still understands this truth. Even if the talent Feng Junrui he invited is not a great celebrity, he is in his forties this year and is just a showman, and he is also thin and ugly, the reason for entering the mountain is not that he really wants to do big things, but because he really can't stand his wife and wants to find a young woman, but after all, he is a scholar, and this is enough.

Due to the relaxation of grain control by the Ming court before, there were more channels to buy grain in the mountains, and there were some grain stocks, so in order to entertain distinguished guests, the banquet was more sumptuous. The barefoot girl in a tube skirt performed a dance in the cave, the silver bells and gold rings on her body jingled, and her not fair feet could not be compared with the Han family's ladies, but she still firmly attracted Feng Junrui's attention.

What attracted his attention even more were the beautiful and energetic girls. Several women, wearing flower crowns on their heads, watched him point and poke and poke, and from time to time they exchanged heads and ears, and then laughed again. He knew that these women were all daughters of the barbarian king, and the customs of the barbarians were different from those of the Han family, and men and women were not tightly guarded, so they would not interfere too much with this kind of behavior...... Perhaps, I can have a chance?

Feng Junrui thought in his heart which girl to start with, and how to catch all these women, even if it didn't work, it was okay to pick one of these dancing women, they were much stronger than his own lady with a waist as thick as a bucket and a sound like thunder. Pan Sheng shouted him twice in a row, only then did he hear that the other party was calling him, and hurriedly smiled, Pan Sheng stretched out his big hand like a fan, pointed to the cooked meat and said: "This is a newly hunted boar, hurry up and eat." ”

"Thank you...... Thank you, King. ”

As a fourth-class student, Feng Junrui's life is very hard, and he doesn't have much opportunity to eat meat on weekdays, even when he sacrifices Ding, his body and bones can't rob other talents, and sometimes he will be beaten if he can't grab meat, and he dreams of eating meat. But as soon as he bit down, his brows furrowed, and the flesh was ...... Didn't put salt?

He didn't dare to criticize the barbarian's recipe, so he had to slow down his eating to show his Sven. Pan Sheng said: "We lack food, salt, cloth, iron, and everything in the mountains. You are very good readers, I invited Feng Gongzi to come just to let you help us live a life where we don't lack anything. As long as I can do this, I won't treat you badly, I know you hate your own lady very much, and I can help you kill her. Or let you find another woman in the mountains. ”

Feng Junrui only felt that the meat in his mouth was even more difficult to swallow...... If he had a way to solve these things that he lacked, he would not be just a fourth-class student. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Wang, in fact, Xiaosheng's mother-in-law still has some silver at home, and their family came to the vicinity of Luoshan this time to say that they wanted to enter the mountain to mine gold. The king can take Xiaosheng as a hostage and ask the mother-in-law for money, asking for a hundred and ten taels of silver, and she will definitely take it. With money, there is something......"

Pan Sheng shook his head and said, "That's not the way." This money cannot save so many of my people. My people have hundreds of thousands, and your money ...... Inadequate. I want you to teach us how to farm, how to mine, how to build weapons, and most importantly, how to read and understand your things. ”

Feng Junrui laughed dryly, "It should ...... You're welcome. But you can't rush it, you have to take it slowly. ”

Among the young girls, the youngest and most beautiful one frowned slightly at this time, and said to her sister: "I don't like this scholar...... His eyes are slippery, always looking at our breasts and feet. ”

"Sister, every time your brother Ah Hu looks at you, he also looks at your places, isn't it? We are good-looking, we should be seen, only those Han women are shy, we are not afraid to look. ”

"What's the ...... I think he's not a good person, the Han people outside the mountains have brought less things recently, and we have arrested Han scholars, will it bring disaster to the tribe? ”

Several women laughed and quipped with their sisters, "What calamity can it bring?" Last month, my father killed their tax collector, didn't he kill him? The government is very timid and will not fight with us for a scholar, and besides, he came here by himself, what does it matter to us? Let me tell you, you have to be careful, this scholar went into the mountains to find a wife, beware of Abba giving you to him as a wife......"

"Then I'll let Brother Tiger beat him to death!"

There are no rules in the mountains, even in front of the king, several women don't care about laughing and frolicking, haha laughter even covers up Feng Junrui's reply. Pan Sheng just wanted to throw a piece of meat over and break the head of a naughty daughter, when a white light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, followed by a huge thunderclap and a sudden rainstorm.

He was not surprised that there were often such sudden weather in the mountains, but the thunder had chopped away his daughter's laughter and his anger. Just as he was thinking about what question he should ask the scholar, a cave man suddenly shouted, "Huh? Look! Lightning struck the sacred tree, and the sacred tree caught fire! ”

When Fan Jin got off the boat, he was also catching up with the rain, but fortunately, he expected that the mountain environment would not get wet before setting off. While walking towards the barracks, Sa Shizhong said: "The forest witch is very effective in transporting supplies, in the past, the garrison in the mountains was afraid that the money and food would be short, the three armies would mutiny, and the second was that it would be a plague. Now that you have restrained both things, the barbarian's magic weapon is half gone. Drink boiled water, eat clean food, and pay attention to hygiene...... Which book has these things in the end, I haven't found them after a lot of books, Brother Fan, you don't have more books in your house than me, right? ”

The simplest common sense of hygiene and epidemic prevention in the eyes of later generations is actually at the moment, which often represents a life. Fan Jin's knowledge is particularly important to the army, if you want to fight a protracted war in the mountains, the first thing is to hold on to your body, otherwise everything is empty talk. This kind of credit is not obvious, and ordinary people can't actually see it, but Sa Shizhong was born in the military and is a brocade system, so he is extremely sensitive to these.

Fan Jin said with a smile: "It was a tattered ancient scroll, and I couldn't find it later, and even the younger brother couldn't say his name." ”

Sa Shizhong frowned and said, "Could it be that there is really a matter of God giving the book to heaven in the world?" Then Brother Fan is very human. ”

"Come on, don't care if I'm an ordinary person or not, has the army arrived?"

"I arrived three days ago, but I didn't make a big deal about it beforehand, and outsiders didn't know about it. Originally, the army was thinking about collecting the net, and we Jinyiwei also wanted to find something to do. For example, how about arresting Pan Sheng's daughter? His daughters are all beautiful, and they are just happy to catch them. Unexpectedly, Feng Junrui was discovered by his wife because he was raising wild women outside, and he ran into the mountain, haha, this is the sky that is going to destroy Luo Shanman. ”

In the rolling thunder, the two walked into the handsome tent, the wind and rain outside took off their coats and sat down, Ling Yunyi was wearing civilian clothes and was looking at the map at the table, and when he saw Fan coming in, he made a gesture to him, "There is tea there, pour yourself a cup, and have something to say to you." ”

When he came closer, Ling Yunyi pointed to the map and said: "This picture is clear, it seems that your hard pen is better than a brush for drawing maps, and you will have to buy more in the future." Your picture is almost comparable to the flat and barbaric palm map in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. ”

"Don't dare, the students don't know how to be good, and the map can't be drawn."

"It's already good. The victory depends, but the location is advantageous, the plague, now these two are gone, only the mountains and forests are left, but I don't gamble with him on the terrain, only outwit to see what he can do. Pass my order to the forest witch, from today onwards, no food will be brought in on the water! As for the land, I will first ask Luo Shanman for Feng Junrui, no matter whether he releases people or not, he will also cut off his grain route. Starve him for a while, wait until there is no rice in the pot, even if there is no natural danger, it is always useless. ”

Fan Jindao: "Students think that in addition to food, the most important thing is salt and iron. People are powerless if they don't have salt, as long as Luo Shan is not allowed to buy salt, no matter how fierce he is, he will be weak and powerless, and he will have no strength to fight. It's just that some barbarian villages are located outside the mountains, mixed with Han merchants, and it is easier to obtain supplies, so they must be prevented from helping the mountains. ”

Ling Yunyi nodded and said, "This makes sense. Let the Witch Lin do this by the way, this passage must be stuck. For the sake of the mountain, we can't fall short, it's time to completely solve the trouble of Luoshan. Thinking back, I heard that Changle Township is fighting for land with you? Ling Sheng, go back and bring a message to Panyu County, and let him take care of his people. If anyone affects the old man's military affairs, I will not be polite! ”

White lights flashed in the air one after another, thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down. The old tree of the mountain, which was worshipped as a god, was struck by lightning and covered in flames, and the old sorcerer of the tribe suddenly cried out after a complicated ritual: "Blood! I smell blood in the air! Blood, it's all blood! Then his eyes rolled up, and he was unconscious.
