When Ding Li and Zhang Wu arrived at Fuxu Town, it was already close to dusk, although it was not far from Fuxu Town, but Ding Li and Zhang Wu, who were out of the woods at that time, realized the seriousness of the problem, because when Cao Hai and Cao You left, they actually killed or dispersed all the mounts on the official road.

And the most unfortunate thing is that before the two of them arrived in Fuxu Town, they didn't see a caravan along the way, which was an extremely unusual thing in ordinary times.

In fact, the port of Guangzhou Prefecture is not as big as Fuxu Port, which is the largest port for Datang merchant ships to go to sea, not one, but the only one. All the seagoing ships that enter and dock at Fuxu Port will all be inspected and taxed by the city ship department of Fuxu Port, and then they will be escorted to Guangzhou by the caravans of various trading houses, and will officially enter the Datang territory and be transported to all parts of the country.

Fuxu Town, although it is named after the town, in fact, relatively speaking, the scale of construction is completely equivalent to a medium-sized city. Although the inventory is not too strict, according to Zhang Wu next to him, Ding Li knows that there are more than 2,000 regular troops in Fuxu Town alone, and the forces of the city envoy and the Jiedu envoy here are almost equal, presumably to balance the situation.

When Ding Li and the injured Zhang Wu entered the north gate of Fuxu Town, Ding Li was still a little worried, but the gatekeeper didn't look at Zhang Wu at all, but after collecting the entrance fee of ten copper plates according to the "custom", he didn't interrogate too much, and at the same time issued Ding Li and Zhang Wu a small wooden token with good workmanship.

"Brother Wu, I saw those guys just now, as if they didn't see you injured at all, could it be that such a tight guard is just for decoration?" After leaving the city gate for a distance, Ding Li couldn't help but raise his inner doubts, and at the same time played with the token engraved with the word 'good' in his hand, grinned and continued to ask: "Also, Brother Wu, what does this brand mean?" Certificate of Good Citizenship? ”

"Brother Li, this Fuxu Town is not what it looks like on the surface, of course, you can also think that those guards just now are decorations! But I can remind you in advance that those inconspicuous-looking guards just now are all the elite of our Lingnan Dongdao, especially in this Fuxu Town, but there are the soldiers that our Jiedu sent Master Li to fight in Nanzhao back then! Zhang Wu just smiled faintly, knowing in his heart that Ding Li was just coming to Fuxu Port for the first time, so he patiently explained: "And the token in your hand, you always know about the bad people in our Datang, right?" The entire Fuxu Town, whether it is from the sea or from other places, if there is no such good person card, if it is found by the city patrol soldiers, it can even be killed on the spot according to military law! ”

"So strict?" Hearing this, Ding Li was taken aback, looked at the good person card in his hand again, and then turned his eyes to look at the pedestrians with different skin colors and hair on the street, and then noticed that most of the people's tokens were hung on their waists, presumably for convenience, but then Ding Li had questions, thought about it, and continued to ask Zhang Wu for advice: "Brother Wu, I see that most of the people are hanging on their waists, I can understand that this is to prove that they are good people, but what if someone steals them?" Don't say it's impossible, if you deliberately take revenge on someone and steal a token from the other party, won't you kill the other party? ”

"Hahaha! Brother Li, why are you so stupid all of a sudden? Zhang Wu raised his head and laughed a few times, looked at Ding Li and shook his head again and again, and then pointed to a courtyard with a dart flag on the side of the road, and explained with a smile: "All the way, I saw a lot of such dart games, right?" What you just said, if you lose your token, hurry up to find a nearby dart board, see no, as long as the dart board with the flag of our Guangzhou government, you can make up a lover card nearby, and the price is not expensive, the cost of twenty copper plates! However, generally no one steals this thing, after all, it has no practical use, and it cannot be exchanged for money! Even if they are city patrol soldiers, they will not enter the houses to search at will! You can rest assured of this! ”

"Oh! That's it! Ding Li nodded suddenly, but he still felt that twenty copper plates were too expensive, and thought that the broken wooden card in his hand, although it was well-made, but the cost could not exceed three copper plates, and it was also a means for the people above to collect money.

"Also, Brother Li, in this Fuxu Town, don't fight in public! The army here doesn't care who is right or wrong, as long as it disrupts order in the street, neither side will end well! Zhang Wu suddenly stopped, looked at the crowd not far in front of him, and saw that Ding Li, who didn't know what to think next to him, didn't notice, so he took the lead in reminding him, lest Ding Li would go up to meddle in matters next.

"Isn't that a distinction between right and wrong? What about the Fanbang people? Is there still the privilege of Guangzhou City Fanfang District here? Ding Li was a little unhappy after hearing this, and he didn't understand how such a high-pressure policy could govern a place well.

"Privileges? Hehe! That's their prerogative! Zhang Wu sneered when he heard this, and his eyes became disdainful when he looked at the Fanbang people around him, and he was even more polite when he spoke: "Brother Li, there are even more Fanbang people here than we Tang people, and the reason why there is such a rule that seems to distinguish between right and wrong is to suppress those Fanbang people!" A large number of them live in Fanfang District on the other side of Guangzhou City, and the privileges of Fanfang District are too superior, causing them to often run rampant in this Fuxu Town! Relying on the privilege of self-righteousness, he causes trouble everywhere! You haven't seen Fuxu Town a few years ago, it's just a chicken and dog restless, since our Lord Li took office as the envoy of the festival, at the beginning, he mobilized tens of thousands of regular troops to maintain and rectify Fuxu Town, and now the situation looks good on the surface, in fact, every night, there are still a lot of unexpected things in this city! ”

"Sounds like a mess." Learning from the appearance of passers-by, Ding Li strung the wooden cards in his hand around his waist, grinned and casually responded to Zhang Wu's words, just raised his head, Zhang Wu's concern finally happened, only to see Ding Li looking ahead with a puzzled face, Zhang Wu hurriedly pulled Ding Li to change the route, and made an excuse for what he did: "Brother Li, go this way, it is closer to the branch of our Zhang Chamber of Commerce, the second master must be there, it is estimated that he didn't expect us to come so soon, maybe he can give the second master a surprise!" ”

"Are we going fast? If it weren't for the lack of horses, I would still be able to catch lunch! Ding Li looked up at the sunset leaning on the horizon suspiciously, glanced at Zhang Wu with some puzzlement, and then stretched out his hand to push the other party away, his eyes still turned to the crowd in front of him, and directly ignored Zhang Wu's excuses, and walked straight towards the crowd, muttering non-stop: "What's going on in front of you?" How can there still be the crying of women and children? Let's go over and see, how can you bully women and children! ”

"Hey! Brother Li, let's go back to the branch first! Seeing this, Zhang Wu knew that he couldn't persuade Ding Li anymore, but he was still unwilling to remind him, and sure enough, he got Ding Li's fierce glare, Zhang Wu had no choice but to shake his head and follow with a smile.

In fact, it was not that Zhang Wu was afraid of things, but mainly because he was worried about Zhang Mingzhi's injury, and Zhang Wu himself was injured, so he didn't want to mix right and wrong just after coming to Fuxu Town, but at the moment he was helpless. Although he has not known Ding Li for a long time, Zhang Wu knows that the things decided by Ding Li in front of him may not be able to pull back the nine cows.

Indeed, as Ding Li heard, after squeezing into the crowd, there was a woman who was not very old sitting on the ground in front of him, and there was a child about three or four years old on the ground beside him who was crying, and even the woman was crying with a man's cyan and lichen robe.

However, the man who was dragged did not have the slightest guilt on his face, but a look of anger, if it weren't for the fact that there were too many pedestrians around him whispering and pointing, maybe the man would have done it.

"Please, don't leave our mother and son behind! At the beginning, we had an agreement to work together for a lifetime and grow old! The woman on the ground was full of despair, as if she had actually realized that her pale and powerless retention was completely useless, but when her eyes swept over the child next to her, there would be a glimmer of hope in the depths of her eyes, despite this, she still pulled the man next to her, and kept begging the other party: "How can you be so ruthless now, if you leave like this, what will our mother and son do?" Are our promises gone? ”

"You're not bothered! How many times have I said it! I don't love you anymore! The person I love now is her! Not you! The man in the green robe bent down impatiently and tugged at his robe again, but found that it was like growing on a woman's hand, and he couldn't loosen it at all, and a trace of chill under his eyes gradually dissipated with the cry of the child on the ground, but when he looked at the woman again, he suddenly turned around, and his tone was cold so that everyone around him felt that there was no trace of humanity: "How many times do you want me to say it!" I don't love you anymore! I don't fucking love you anymore! ”

"Impossible, no! No! Ding Li saw that the woman's gaze suddenly became a little loose, and even the screams in her mouth were extremely poignant, but despite this, the woman tried to continue to keep the other party, raised her tear-dried face, looked at the man with pleading eyes, shook her head with an unnatural expression, and shouted repeatedly: "Definitely not!" We still have a mountain alliance and a sea oath! You won't fail to love me! You've been seduce your soul by a spell by that big-eating vixen! Definitely! It must be the big eater fox! You can't be so ruthless, what can we do with our mother and son. ”

Big food, Ding Li knows that it is a broad sense of the name of the Tang Dynasty for the Arab and Iranian and other *** peoples, and the religion believed by the big cannibals at that time was not uniform, and even some big cannibals also used preaching to develop cultists, and since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, after the emergence of the big food, the big cannibals in the Tang Dynasty often spread a variety of different doctrines, many of which spread a kind of cult, so the woman in front of her mistakenly thought that her husband was hooked by the big food woman she loved.

"Smack!!"

The woman's crying and pleading, including the crying of the children on the side and the whispered accusations of everyone, stopped abruptly, and everyone did not expect that the man in the green robe would slap him ruthlessly, including Ding Li, who was shocked by this sudden change.

Look at the woman again, after being slapped to the ground, her hands supported the ground a few times, and then she sat up again with difficulty, but there were five finger red marks on the side of her face, and a string of blood was dripping from the corner of her mouth, which showed the strength of the man's slap just now.
