Chapter 4: Trials

Scar and the other four people are Ma Daha, Yang Xi has already seen that except for the one-armed Qin Gang, who still has a little brain, the other three are all rude men.

It is estimated that these three people can kill the enemy on the battlefield, if they want to discuss something, Ding Mu feels that it is better to sleep a little longer.

On this day, Ding Mu called Uncle Fu and one-armed Qin Gang to discuss the specific whereabouts of the next. Although the one-armed Qin Gang had the lowest realm among the four, only the third layer of the Iron Bone Realm, he was often the master.

Ding Mu said: "Uncle Fu, this supply can't be dealt with for three or five days now, it seems that I have to find a place to settle on the shore." It stands to reason that we had walked hundreds of miles north, and we were far from the last place offshore, so there should be no problem. Qin Gang, where are we now?"

Qin Gang took out a sheepskin from his arms, but when he opened it, it was a map. At this time, paper was available, and technology was quite developed, but in the seaside to make a living, the map could not be paper, that thing was not easy to preserve, in case of a storm, it would be finished if it got wet.

"Young master, my subordinates and others used to hunt fish and beasts in the sea near Huaikou City for a living, and over the years, they are somewhat familiar with that sea area. But now that I have left Huaikou City, even this map has reached the edge, but I am not familiar with it. However, as far as I know, where we are now, it should be the sea area of the Donglai Peninsula, and further north, it should be the Donglai Peninsula. ”

Ding Mu nodded, thinking secretly, he is a little confused now, blame this original Ding Mu, he has never been out of the capital in his life, he has no concept of this Dajin geography, and he vaguely knows that there is a big river in the north of the Donglai Peninsula, called Huangsha River, and two thousand miles upstream along the river, it is Haoyang City, the capital of the Dajin Dynasty.

Uncle Fu said: "Young master, no matter what, if the young master wants to dock, the first thing is to find an identity, without a household registration card, it is difficult to move an inch." Dajin has extremely strict household registration control, and even bandits in the mountains also need to have a legal identity, unless they don't go out of the mountains for the rest of their lives. ”

Ding Mu nodded, there was no doubt about it.

"However, my portrait has long been spread by royal painters to all parts of Dajin, that is, coastal counties and towns, and they also have them, even if they get a household registration card, it is also inconvenient to walk, which is a little difficult. Also, Qin Gang, the four of you are too recognizable, and you are too eye-catching when you go out, you should also think of a way, what do you suggest?"

Ding Mu was right, although Qin Gang and the others had a household registration in Huaikou City, these four people appeared at the same time, and there must be a lot of attention. Dajin night guards are all over the country, and it is said that even some temples have hidden lines, which is easy to focus on.

When Ding Mu said this, Qin Gang and Uncle Fu shook their heads and said that there was no way, Ding Mu continued: "It doesn't matter if I look like this, I'm only twelve now, and if I put on makeup, it will change a lot, and ordinary people can't recognize it." Qin Gang, a few of you, you have to prepare carefully. Our first step was to get a legal household registration card with Uncle Fu after we went ashore. ”

Speaking of the household registration card, Uncle Fu said: "This household registration card, it is not difficult to say that it is difficult, there are currently two ways, the first is to find the sect leader of a temple and prove it, which is difficult to do." The second way is for any township-level official to issue a household registration certificate and register with the township household registration office, which is the easiest way. “

As the son of a rich and noble family, where did Ding Mu know these details, when he heard this, he saw Qin Gang and added: "There is another way!"

"And the way?"

Ding Mu asked rhetorically, but Qin Gang had a sad face, but he only paused slightly, and then said his method.

This method is much simpler, and there are not only fishermen living by the sea in the eastern coastal area, but also many merchants. The salt, fish and other resources produced in the sea are transported to the mainland, and all of them need to be traded, so we only need to kill two outsiders of the same age and seize their household registration cards, so that we can have an identity at least in the short term. Once you have established yourself in the future, it will be much easier to get a new identity. The household registration card is just used for checking, which is a great treasure in the world, and the information circulation is not fast, so there should be no problem. ”

Looking at Qin Gang's expression, he said it extremely naturally, and Ding Mu was speechless for a while.

Killing people and selling goods seems to be no pressure at all for this person.

Dan Ding Mu had to admit that this was the easiest way, but as a person from another world, the idea of human rights was deeply rooted in his heart, and he couldn't accept it for a while, so he quickly shook his head and said: "This can't be helped, so what's the difference between us and the robbers." “

Ding Mu knew that if human beings themselves had super power, they would not have reverence for ordinary creatures, and they would not be able to change these people at all, so he would not say more.

Qin Gang said: "Young master, those foreign merchants, which one has no life in their hands, otherwise how can they survive? The imperial court prohibits the private ownership of salt and iron, these merchants are through various salt gangs, to obtain the source of goods, that is, the sea area of Huaikou City, there are several cases of black and black every day, it is me and other people, there are three and four layers of martial arts, only give me a year and a half, you can pull up a team on the seaside, do this business." The profits of this salt industry are huge, don't you know, young master, that is, those salt officials in the seaside salt farm, almost all of them don't have clean butts. “

When Ding Mu heard this, he probably understood the meaning, he used to be a big young man in the capital, and he didn't care about this, but the emperor was far away, and there was such a thing in the marginal land, how could he know, he turned his head to look at Uncle Fu, and Uncle Fu also nodded and said: "Young master, what Qin Gang said is probably consistent with reality, although the old master is in the northern Xinjiang, far away from the East China Sea, but the old slave has heard some rumors." The DPRK and China have extremely strict control over the salt officials in the coastal areas, but there are still many families who would rather pay their own children to serve as local salt officials in Jiupin than let them serve as county commanders in a wealthy county, which is a bit boring. ”

Ding Mu heard some eyebrows, the population of the Dajin Dynasty is more than 500 million, of which there is always one thousandth of martial artists, with this kind of power, it is even more difficult for the imperial court to control it single-handedly.

Not to mention the Shinto forces in various places, just because these martial artists are scattered all over the country, it is not something that the imperial court can fully control.

There are even sects and Taoism in various places, which have been inherited for thousands of years, although there are some ups and downs, but it is impossible for the imperial court to kill them all.

After learning about this from Uncle Fu and Qin Gang, Ding Mu had different ideas, but all this had to be calculated after going ashore.

At the same time, in the extreme south of the Great Jin Dynasty, in a mansion in the city, a thin figure, his eyes were dim, looking at the north in a daze, muttering something in his mouth.

It was a woman, in her mid-40s, with tears on her face and red and swollen eyes, apparently having just cried.

"Mu'er, my Mu'er, today is your thirteenth birthday, I don't want this ruthless royal family, I just want to kill my Ding family, I regret my mother's mistake, I should take you back to my mother's house early, it is for my mother to hurt you. ”

The woman sobbed in a low voice, it has been like this for the past few days, at this time, a figure quietly came behind her, this is a burly man, his one hand on the woman's shoulder, silent for a long time before shaking his head helplessly: "Fourth sister, you should not despair, refuse to report the spies at home, the death of your child, there are still some doubts, although the court announced that he has died, but the night guard is secretly investigating, there must be variables." Fourth sister, rest assured, as long as my nephew is not killed, the third brother will definitely help you find it. ”

When the woman heard this, she didn't look back, only nodded slightly, but there was a trace of despair in her eyes.

But everyone knows that this is too hopeful.

How did they know that at this time, on the coast of the Donglai Peninsula, a sudden wind swept dark clouds, and the wind swept wildly in the sea area for dozens of miles, setting off huge waves several meters high, slapping towards the coast.

On the waves, a wooden boat was high and low, and Ding Mu clung to the side of the ship, but he was still thrown away.

"Young master, the hull of the ship is not controlled at all, all the supplies have been dumped into the sea, and the ship may capsize at any time, it seems that I have to wait to be ready to go to the sea at any time and swim to the shore. ”

The one-armed Qin Gang shouted, his face was very anxious, it didn't matter if they were a few of them, they had a three-layer and four-layer martial arts realm, and it was not a problem to survive in the sea for a few days, the key young master was only a layer of refining realm, and he was afraid that if he was swept away by the waves, he would be drowned in this vast sea.

Uncle Fu came up to protect Ding Mu and was about to say something, when the vulture staggered over, but he was holding a thumb thick hemp rope in his hand and said: "Young master! ”

Ding Mu saw the rope in the bald eagle's hand, took one end, and did not tie it to his waist, but shouted: "Uncle Fu, vulture, Scar, Tie Guan Qiang, Qin Gang, you all hold the rope, I count to three, jump the ship together, this boat is no longer guaranteed, I want to see, this day, what test will be given to me!"

Ding Mu ordered, and the five of them hesitated for a moment, then rushed over and grabbed the rope each.

"One, two, three, jump!"

Ding Mu jumped down, and the other five people did not hesitate to jump into the waves. The five had just surfaced, but in three breaths, a huge wave crashed against the boat, shattering the boat.
