Chapter Seventy-One: Leaving Ramie Town
It was another year of expedition day, wearing the armor that was rewarded for some reason, Feng Siji finally set foot on the road to the expedition. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis time, there are no relatives to say goodbye.
Gaoliang County, Liu Wu, who was both sun and moon, rescued the injured Feng Qi from the hands of Huang Maniac.
Since entering the territory of Gaoliang County, Feng Qi has basically relaxed his vigilance. Whether it is a bandit or a ranger, they all have their own basic plates, and no matter how powerful the yellow madman is, it is impossible for him to infiltrate Gaoliang County. No matter how arrogant Huang Maniac's subordinates are, they must stay honestly when they go to someone else's territory. The injuries on his body still needed to be dealt with, so Feng Qi inevitably relaxed a little. didn't expect this one to slack off and almost kill him.
Feng Qi guessed right, because in other people's territory, Huang Maniac was not stupid enough to look for people everywhere with great fanfare. In order to get rid of the last person, Huang Madman sent people to chase them all the way, but he didn't expect to be escaped by Feng Qi. Fortunately, Xiao Liuzi and his people finally found Feng Qi who was looking for someone to treat his wounds after entering Gaoliang County on the second day, after being injured, he fled all the way, Feng Qi's injuries were already very serious, if he didn't deal with it, I was afraid that this hand would be useless, so Feng Qi had to stop for a day, and it was this day's time that Xiao Liuzi found an opportunity.
There were only five people chasing Feng Qi, and in order to avoid startling the snake, Xiao Liuzi chose to forbear, planning to do it in a no-man's place after leaving the city. If there is no accident, Feng Qi must be in a catastrophe, who knows that Feng Qi's life should not be extinguished, he actually met Liu Wu and others who arrived just in time, and then Xiao Liuzi thought that their arrival provoked the local strongman, and he couldn't do anything about it, so he immediately fled.
"Isn't this the Liu family's little martial arts? How did you guys get here. Feng Qi, who was immortal in the catastrophe, finally saw the people who came after seeing that Xiao Liuzi had fled, but he didn't expect that there were several people.
"Uncle Feng Qi, we were sent by Uncle Tong. Uncle Tong knew that the Gan family was going to make a move against the Feng family, and you took someone to buy food, so let us come out to find you. Liu Wu hurriedly stepped forward to support Feng Qi, and then asked the other two people to find the lost horse.
"How did you find me?" Feng Qi had to wonder, it was too coincidental that this Liu Wu and them also appeared.
"I didn't look for you, Uncle Seven, Uncle Tong said that you are most likely to come to Gaoliang County, so I will take people all the way to this side. Actually, I just happened to be here. But Uncle Seven, why are you alone, where are the others? Liu Wu looked at Feng Qi, who was alone, and asked strangely.
"In order for me to escape, everyone else died in King Gu's burial."
Feng Qi listened to Liu Wu's words, and couldn't help but feel silent in his heart. Huang Madman killed a group of them, although Feng Qi knew that Huang Madman actually listened to other people's orders, but this revenge, Feng Qi would definitely take revenge.
"How's the town?" Soon the other two members of the Liu family found the lost horse, and the four of them set foot on the road again.
"The Liao family made a move on our Liu family, and the elders of the clan planned to bow to the surnamed Liao, but Uncle Tong and Uncle Yi saw that the opposition was invalid, so they took us out of the house. Ah Gang and Ah Jun and I were the first to come out, and I don't know anything else. The other two of the Liu family are twin brothers, seventeen years old this year, and they also looked at Feng Qi with some shame after listening to Liu Wu's words. What the Liu family did this time was really embarrassing, as a member of the Liu family, we inevitably felt that we couldn't hold our heads up in front of the Feng family.
"Well, you don't have to. endured the calm for a while, this time the Gan family was not good, and the Liu family was understandable for doing this. If the Feng family stood in the position of the Liu family, maybe it would be like this. Besides, aren't you still there? With you good men here, you don't have to feel sorry for others. ”
Feng Qi heard that the Liu family admitted defeat to the Gan family, and bowed his head to the Liao family, obviously a little disappointed. Although he also guessed that the Liu family might not be of the same mind as the Feng family this time, he didn't expect the betrayal to come so quickly. Hearing the news with his own ears, Feng Qi was inevitably a little angry. But this matter will be talked about later, and now the arrival of Liu Wu and the three of them just ends the problem that there is no manpower around him. Since these three people were sent out by Liu Tong at this time, they are obviously trustworthy.
"It's just right that you came, the village is now waiting for me to bring the grain back, and now I am short of manpower, so the three of you just follow me to Gaoliang to buy food."
Feng Qi quickly got back to business.
In Ramie Town, there are only a few days left in the month, and the food is finally starting to run out. Feng Qi, who should have returned, still has no news, Feng Shun, who should have been ordered by the county guard, is nowhere to be found, and the people of the Feng family who have been holding on are also on the verge of collapse. The people of Ramie Town have been panicking for half a month, and the opinions of the various families who have been oppressed by the Gan family are getting bigger and bigger, and the Gan family finally decided to have a showdown.
It's time to put an end to this.
Gan Lu appeared at the intersection of the Feng family for the first time, and in the past month, the direct implementer of this matter finally appeared in front of the Feng family.
"Until today, your Feng family is still so ignorant of advancing and retreating? Do you really want our Gan family to do it? ”
As soon as Gan Lu appeared, the Feng family immediately informed Feng Junyan, Feng Dao and others, who had been waiting in the village, as soon as Feng Junyan and the others appeared, Gan Lu, who had been waiting impatiently, spoke directly.
"Patriarch Gan, your Gan family has blocked our Feng family's door for nearly a month, what are you doing?"
It was Feng Dao who spoke, because of the lack of food, in recent days, except for children and the elderly, the people in Fengjiazhuang could basically only use gruel to satisfy their hunger. Although Feng Dao is the oldest old man in the village, he is stubborn and wants to drink gruel like a young man. After so many days, the Feng family also understood that the Gan family would not do anything to them, but they would always starve them.
As time passed, Zhuang Nei also sent people out to look for food, but the people who went out were all discovered and tied up by the Gan family. The Gan family didn't treat those people well, but they still served them with good food and drink, but it was precisely because of this that it made people feel weird. Even some of those who are weak-willed have escaped directly from the village by themselves, and walked to the Gan family to be tied up, just to eat a full meal.
Over the years, Feng Junyan has never worried about food like this month. The feeling of hunger was unbearable, so he didn't blame those people who couldn't help but surrender. If it weren't for the lack of a chance of winning, Feng Junyan would have fought with the Gan family a long time ago. Knowing that the Gan family just wanted to use the strategy of starvation to make them admit defeat, Feng Junyan had no way to deal with it.
"Feng Dao, count your Feng family lucky. This time, our Gan family decided that as long as you leave Ramie Town, we can let you leave safely and no longer trouble you. ”
Gan Lu looked at Feng Junyan and the others who came over, and condescendingly told the comer his requirements.
"Hmph, don't think we're three-year-olds, even if we leave Ramie Town, will you let us go? I'm afraid I don't know how many dangers await me on the road. Feng Siye didn't believe that Gan Min would be so kind to let them go. People leave their hometowns, not to mention this kind of family fleeing, and I don't know how many vicious wolves are waiting for them along the way.
"Don't be embarrassed, you also think too highly of yourself, if our Gan family really wants to kill you all, do you have to wait until today? Don't think I don't know what you're doing, even if we don't do anything, just block you for a few more days, I'm afraid you'll starve to death. ”
Gan Lu glanced at Feng Siye who spoke with disdain, although Feng Siye was right, he did think so, but now the situation is stronger than people, this time he really didn't have the heart to kill the Feng family.
"Hmph, if you have the ability, you can block it, and it's better to kill us all. With the death of hundreds of people, I don't believe that your Gan family can still cover the sky with one hand. ”
Feng Siye listened to Gan Lu's words, but glanced at Gan Min with disdain. At the beginning, Feng Siye was worried that the Gan family would really do something, but now a month has passed. Feng Siye also figured it out, the Gan family made this matter known to everyone, if the Feng family starved to death because of the Gan family, the Gan family would not end well.
"Hmph, do you think we don't dare? Your Feng family is so hungry that there are not even a few people who can use knives now, if you let the bandits around Ramie Town know, you don't have to do it without our Gan family, you won't end well. You are also clear about the situation this month, and you will not end well if you go against our Gan family. For the sake of the villagers, as long as you leave Ramie Town and hand over the title deed or something, our Gan family will not be responsible for the past. ”
It is really difficult for a strong man to let Gan Lu say that he is not to blame for the past, but now that his arms can't twist his thighs, Gan Min sent an order from Hepu, although he was unwilling, but there was no way to change it. From Gan Min's tone, Gan Lu already knew that things were not up to them, so he was here today.
"Don't you want us to give you the title deed? We will never leave Ramie Town, the foundation of the clan is here, the temple is also here, we will not leave even if we die. If you want to move a single hair, step on me first. ”
Before Feng Junyan could speak, Feng Siqing behind him immediately opened his mouth. He hasn't been able to eat enough for the past few days, Feng Siqing looks a little vain, but after listening to Gan Lu's words, he is still angry and pulls out the knife on his waist angrily.
"Don't be embarrassed, it's in your nature to live to this day, don't you really think that we don't dare to do it. If you don't hand over everything within three days, don't blame us for being polite. ”
Gan Lu listened to Feng Siqing's words, but he directly shook his face. I really think that if it weren't for the life of your nobles, you would still be alive today. Although I can't hurt the nobles, I really want to provoke myself, and I really think that I don't dare to let you have a few fewer people.
Thinking of the order that Gan Min passed back, he must let the Feng family have some self-preservation power when they leave Ramie Town, Gan Lu was irritable in his heart. There are not a few men left in the Feng family, and they must have the power to protect themselves, which means that they can't do anything to these people. Thinking of the Feng family people he had caught in the past few days, not only could he not punish them, but he also had to entertain them with good food and drink, Gan Lu felt sick to his stomach. It's a pity that this is an order sent back by Gan Min, and he can only carry it out. The Feng family didn't know about the news, otherwise they could really find a crooked-necked tree and hang themselves. Entertain the enemy with good food and drink, and no one can be happy.
"There is no problem in leaving Ramie Town, and there is no problem in handing over the title deed, but the people you have captured us have to release us back, and we have no food, and if we leave Ramie Town like this, there is only a dead end, so we need you to provide them with food for three months. As long as you agree to these demands, we will leave tomorrow. ”
Feng Junyan, who had not spoken on the side, said something that surprised everyone present at this time.
"Patriarch, no."
"How can we leave?"
"How can the ancestral inheritance be abandoned!"
"Where the ancestral hall and temple are, we won't leave even if we die!"
As soon as Feng Junyan's words spoke, Feng Dao, Feng Siqing and the others behind him all looked at Feng Junyan in disbelief. It's really hard to believe, no one thought that Feng Junyan would agree so happily to Gan Lu's request. Feng Dao didn't know anything about this matter, so as soon as Feng Junyan said it now, he directly startled the people present.
"Okay, Patriarch Feng, sure enough, the hero is a young man. has courage and deserves to be Feng Siji's son. ”
Gan Lu suppressed the shock in his heart and glanced at Feng Junyan with appreciation. Obviously, he was also taken aback by Feng Junyan's words.
"Since Patriarch Feng is so knowledgeable about current affairs, then I will also take a step back, as long as you leave Ramie Town within three days and hand over all the land deeds, I will allow you to take the things in Zhuangzi with you. How to say that the two families are also villagers for hundreds of years, and outsiders in the province know that our Gan family has no affection. ”
Gan Lu was overjoyed when he heard Feng Junyan's words, and immediately took another step back. The Feng family listened to Gan Lu's words, but they couldn't wait to eat him, where did the Feng and Gan families get their affection except for hatred. It's hard for him to say such shameless things.
Feng Junyan didn't care about Gan Lu's shamelessness, and completely ignored the advice of Feng Dao, Feng Siqing and others around him, but watched Gan Lu open his mouth again.
"As long as you put my people back and hand us three months' worth of food, what the Feng family has in Ramie Town will be your Gan family in the future, and it will have nothing to do with our Feng family." Feng Junyan looked at Gan Lu with a solemn expression.
"You don't have the right to give things from your clan to others, it's our entire family, and you don't have the right to make decisions." As soon as Feng Junyan finished saying this, Feng Siqing opened his mouth. It's a pity that Feng Junyan didn't look at him.
"Patriarch Gan, don't worry. I am the patriarch of the Feng family, and everything in the Feng family is up to you. If the patriarch does not believe, tomorrow he can bring the principals of the houses in the town and make a note in the presence of everyone. ”
Feng Junyan looked at Gan Lu with a puzzled expression and opened his mouth.
"Okay, since Patriarch Feng said so, then I might as well be respectful. Tomorrow morning, we will make a note. Although Gan Lu didn't understand what Feng Junyan wanted to do, he didn't care if he could achieve his goal. Now that the Feng family has nobles to help them, as long as they make a written note, the Feng family will have nowhere to say even if they regret it in the future.
As for why the Feng family now has a written document and a title deed, but it must not be used, it can only be said that the law is also a matter of people, strength, and situation. When you reach a certain position, you have to talk about the rules, and you can only use the rules if you have a certain strength. If the Feng family did not have the protection of nobles, Gan Luxian's egg would want to make a note with the Feng family. In the final analysis, it's not for someone to find something in the future and be able to come up with evidence on their own. Who knows, the noble man who protects the Feng family will pull the Feng family a hand.
"Since Patriarch Feng knows so much, then I will also promise Patriarch Feng that as long as you leave, three months' worth of food will be placed outside the town on the day you leave Ramie Town. But I hope that Patriarch Feng can speak, otherwise, my Ganlu is not so easy to deceive. ”
After Gan Lu finished speaking, he glanced at Feng Siqing and the others, who wanted to stop talking, and went back to the Gan family's team directly. He also had to tell Gan Min the news, as well as release the Feng family who had been caught, prepare food and invite the principals of each family, and most importantly, be ready to receive the territory after the Feng family left, but he didn't have the heart to talk to these people of the Feng family here. Anyway, he had already gotten the result he wanted, and he wasn't afraid that the Feng family would regret it.
