Chapter 287: Out of Sight is Clear

"This gentleman. ”

"You should call me Lord Lord, this is the second time I've reminded you, I don't want to have a third time, trust me, you won't want to have it either. ”

"This ...... However, I can't call you that way until I can prove your identity. ”

"A letter of appointment has been stamped with the supreme seals of the Principality of Roses and the Hundred Cities Federation Council, in this case you still doubt its authenticity, I can only understand that you are provoking me and the laws of the Hundred Cities Federation. ”

"No, no, first...... Don't get me wrong, I really can't afford this crime, it's just that we've lived here all our lives, and we haven't even seen the seal of the Blue Rose City Lord who is closest to here, let alone these higher-level seals. ”

"It doesn't seem to have much to do with me, of course, I can give you a chance, I will give you 3 days to check the authenticity of this power of attorney, and during this time, this power of attorney will be placed here for you. ”

"Don't try to do anything, this letter of appointment is nothing to me, I can go get another one, two, ten, hundred, but for you, it's the only one, if it's for any reason in the past 3 days, do you hear clearly? Damaged or lost for any reason, heh......"

"Also, you'd better remember that as I said, you only have 3 days. ”

"Okay, let's go out, I'm tired and need to rest, by the way, during this time, I don't want anything unpleasant to happen, otherwise I will be dealt with as a crime of great disrespect to the lord. ”

"I came up with this charge on the spot, as for how to punish it, hehe......"

A small village is indeed a "small" village, and standing on a small slope only a few meters high outside the village, you can see the whole village.

There are less than 100 houses in total, and this still counts all toilets and firewood rooms.

The whole village is a street that runs through the village, and the houses are lined up on both sides of the street.

They were all the houses of the people in the village, with an average of 2 large houses per family, and the village chief had slightly more, 5 rooms, and Langdon lived in the village chief's house at this time.

Such a village does not need to do a census, just ring the bell at the entrance of the village to gather people, and you can count them at random - 128 people, which is the total number of people in this village.

The village is close to the Corolla Mountains, and the only road that passes through the village is connected to a mountain pass at one end, and the road is more than 1 kilometer long, and you can see the situation inside the mountain pass from the village entrance.

On the other side of the road there was a small town of a baron, with a population of thousands, but according to the rules of the barony, it was not included in the village until it reached less than 10 kilometers outside the village.

The so-called back to the big tree is good to enjoy the shade, there is such a barony on the side, although it does not meet the regulations, but as long as the village and the baron's side work together, it is not impossible to put the village in.

However, after so many years, the village is still lonely, and the barony is still a barony, which only shows that the two sides are simply Lang ruthless concubines and have no intention.

These circumstances were explained to him by Callista when Langdon and Callista negotiated the terms, and it was based on this that Langdon judged that the village would not want a lord like him.

And now it seems that he really guessed correctly.

There have been no outsiders in the village for many years, and at this time outsiders suddenly came, and at the beginning it was very warm hospitality, however, when Langdon took out the letter of appointment and listened to Langdon say what he meant, those enthusiastic villagers left straightforwardly, and the middle-aged man who inherited his father's position and became the village chief before the age of 40 was even more simply, putting on such a posture of "the country man is illiterate".

If he changes to a soft person who is incapable, he may really be blinded by him, and then there will be some accidents later, either the letter of appointment will be lost, or the person will be lost more directly.

It's just a pity that it was Langdon who came, and in two sentences, blocked all the ways they wanted to do something around the mandate.

Langdon smiled faintly as the village chief, named Brooke, withdrew from his arms as his eyes flickered.

The villagers are simple, there is indeed such a saying, but there is another saying, called the poor mountains and bad waters out of the people, this is the way to describe the people in this village.

"That's the smallholder mentality. Langdon shook his head and said with a smile: "Isn't it just for the sake of the free fields that have more free fields than ordinary people, and the small bargains that don't have to pay taxes to the top, so that they can cherish this almost complete self-isolation, and these people are really okay." ”

No wonder he said this, many years ago, when the news of the remains of ancient civilizations in the Corolla Mountains first spread, it attracted many explorers like the Forest of Half a Lake, and people entered the mountain range from different directions to explore, and this mountain pass was also one of them, and even the road to the mountain pass was built at that time.

However, roads have been built, but no corresponding buildings have been built, and the village has so far been full of villagers' own houses, and there is not even a hotel, restaurant, or anything, which is obviously not normal.

It feels like the villagers are saying to outsiders, you can come here, but don't stay here.

To this extent, it is enough to see their xenophobic determination.

The reason for this is precisely because of the well-grown fields outside the village.

This large tract of free land that does not pay taxes is the root of their actions, however, these things are like chicken ribs to those high-level, and it is a pity to discard them tastelessly, so that the baron, uh, to be precise, a certain man who has been several predecessors of the current baron, completely abandoned this place after they tried to obstruct it as a domain twice in a row, but they tried to get in the way of it, so there is the situation today.

"When the words of the adults came out, I believe that they would not dare to do anything to the power of attorney, otherwise it would be an excuse for the adults to do something, so they would definitely start from other places. Zhu Lingqi said.

"Of course, it starts directly with us, under the pretext that this kind of thing, if you really want to find it, you can find it. Langdon shrugged and said, "It's a pity that they don't have enough vision, this is also one of the small peasant mentality I am talking about, even who I am and what kind of strength I have to dare to do it without figuring out what kind of strength I have, is this considered death? ”

Langdon said as he habitually raised his hand to touch Hogg's head.

Hogg was just about to speak, but was killed by a touch of the head, and simply stopped talking, his eyes narrowed, and he enjoyed it.

"Hmph. Zhu Lingqi snorted casually and got up to leave.

Out of sight is out of sight.
