"Li Zhuangshi, good means."

"This skill on the blade, no matter how many people come to it, they are not your opponents."

"Han is really an eye-opener, even if you go to Jinan Mansion, there are few martial artists who are your opponents......"

Han Dahu was very satisfied, he was sure that he had earned it, and it only cost fifty yuan to invite Li Kui, a good helper. The weight of a pair of ghost king axes made him realize that he was desperate with Li Kui, but he couldn't measure Li Kui's real kung fu.

This is the master!

It's a pity that he is an unpopular inspector, his status is too low, and he may not be able to look at Li Kui's family if he wants to recruit him.

But it's always good to make a friend.

"Li Zhuangshi, Han Mou has a little thin wine, and please be sure to appreciate the light."

Li Kui looked at the sky and said worriedly: "It's not early, hurry up, and you can reach Baizhang Village before evening." Don't delay, it's important to fight the tiger. ”

"What Li Zhuangshi said is extremely true." Han Dahu was extremely satisfied, and asked someone to help him, but he was most afraid of encountering a situation where the person who came was too famous, and he wanted this and that, raising his identity. Sometimes he is even more vexatious, making some excessive demands, not satisfying him, and losing his temper. This is the habit of Jianghu people, who pay attention to face.

For the people of the rivers and lakes, drinking wine and eating meat is the most basic requirement, drinking good wine and eating beef is a favor, and it would be better if there were entertainment programs.

Beef was sold in the Song Dynasty, don't think it's illegal to kill cattle and eat meat. At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, it was indeed forbidden, and only old cows, sick cows, or dead cattle were allowed to be slaughtered. The main reason is that the price of cattle is limited by the imperial court, and there are five times for a ploughing cow, and this price has not changed much, which is the price determined by Song Law. But the price of meat, regardless of pork and mutton, often soars above Baiwen.

Moreover, the pork of the Northern Song Dynasty was not cheap, and the good things that Su Dongpo encountered in Huangzhou can only be said that the locals do not like to eat pork. It is also common for ordinary pork prices to exceed 100 wen a catty, and mutton is even more than 100 wen.

And a cow is at least two or three hundred catties of meat, and it sells for five pounds. In the middle and late Song Dynasty, the money was only 770 Wen, and the cost of a pound of beef was only a dozen Wen, which was obviously impossible. If it's really that price, who still eats pork and mutton? Will not the ploughing oxen be slain? In fact, beef is more expensive than pork and mutton, because the Song people believed that eating beef was the best meat among the meats. Later, the imperial court also knew that it could not prohibit the slaughter of cultivated cattle, so it could only use extremely high slaughter taxes to raise the cost of selling beef, thereby limiting the number of cultivated cattle slaughtered.

The price of wine is slightly lower.

However, it is limited to locally produced sake with a very poor taste. If it is a famous wine, the price is often more than a catty.

For a treat, naturally you can't use sour wine, especially for people in the rivers and lakes, and good wine is inevitably a drink that fills the façade.

Han Dahu was surprised that he actually invited a knight who didn't want to eat meat, didn't drink, and didn't even need a decent reception. This chivalrous man is also very good at talking, as if he is thinking about him everywhere, which makes him a little uncertain, could it be that Li Kui has another purpose?

It felt a little unreal to him.

What made him especially helpless was that Li Kui didn't seem to want to delay the trip, urging the peasants and soldiers who were inspecting to enter the mountain.

Han Dahu didn't dare to delay, so he could only warn his subordinates that they must obey Li Kui's arrangement. The group took advantage of the fact that it was still early and entered the mountains.

After entering the mountain, Han Dahu soon realized that something was wrong, Li Kui's guy seemed to be more familiar with the surrounding environment than the guide sent by Mengshan Town. specially picked a small path to walk, and didn't even look at it, as if it was not a good hand he hired, but he followed Li Kui home...... With a strong sense of uneasiness, he caught up with Li Kui's footsteps and asked breathlessly, "Li Zhuangshi, have you been here?" ”

"I live in Baizhang Village."

Li Kui grinned and said: "It's almost time to go over the mountain col in front, there are many paths in the mountains that are hunting paths for hunters, and the guide you asked is a hawker who collects mountain goods, he naturally doesn't dare to take these roads, and he won't know about them." ”

"But ......"

Han Dahu pointed at Li Kui and trembled angrily, he never thought that Li Kui was from Baizhang Village. With such a body of kung fu, do you still use it to make a living with the mountains in the mountain nest?

What made him even more angry was that Li Kui even threatened him: "It's true that I am a villager of Baizhang Village, but it is not my errand to fight tigers." To help you fight the tiger, you can't miss any money. ”

Han Dahu had a kind of anger that his IQ was humiliated by the cleverness of the mountain people, if Li Kui was really from Baizhang Village, he didn't believe that Li Kui could escape from his palm at all. He is a patrol, and he has the duty of arresting thieves and inspecting the township. At the same time, if there is an official errand, then the local government must assist, and he has the power to temporarily requisition. The tiger appeared in Baizhang Village, and the villagers of Baizhang Village naturally couldn't avoid the temporary requisition of the Inspection Division.

No matter how cunning Li Kui is, can he still hide from the laws of the Great Song Dynasty?

Han Dahu asked rhetorically: "You are a villager of Baizhang Village, and I am an inspector, so I naturally have the right to recruit you." "Han Dahu has no intention of repenting, fifty times is a lot for ordinary people, but for him, it is not a lot of money. He was just a little unwilling, feeling that he had been tricked by Li Kui, and simply wanted to get back face.

"I'm only thirteen years old, and I'll be fourteen next month."

Li Kui grinned, that was called a brilliant one.

Han Dahu exclaimed, "How is it possible? Then he looked at Li Kui carefully, his face was very dark...... That's not the point. The point is that because it is too dark, the original physiognomy is ignored. But between the eyebrows, he looks like a teenager, and he doesn't have a beard. There is a little fierce aura in the childishness, but it hides Li Kui's original age.

Li Kui's age is his best protective umbrella, and anyone who is forced to serve and obey the government's arrangement needs to have a condition, to be at least 16 years old. In other words, after the age of sixteen, a man is considered an adult and can take on the responsibility of national construction and the heavy tasks of the government. But before that, there was no reason to recruit a boy who was only thirteen years old and almost fourteen years old. Han Dahu said that it was heaven and earth, and there was no reason for Li Kui to join the team of fighting tigers unconditionally.

Of course, one pays the money and pays a high price, and the other voluntarily joins the team to fight the tigers.

Han Dahu called this uncomfortable in his heart! He thinks that Li Kui is not the kind of knight and person in the rivers and lakes who go south and north, and his knowledge is limited, so it stands to reason that the wisdom of a patrol master like him should easily crush this guy.

But in the contact with Li Kui, it was revealed that the other party acted carefully, and there was no sign of making trouble in the pharmacy at the beginning.

Could it be that I went to the county seat and saw the big scene, so I got the hang of it?

When pigs fly.

But he could only hold this question in his heart, and before long, the village of Baizhang stood in their sight, and the peasants cheered and walked up the mountain road into the village, and they were finally able to rest for a while.

And Li Kui said goodbye, Han Dahu and the others took Li Quan back home.

Before entering the house, he found a man cowering, squatting at the door of his house at a loss, and before he could get close to the man, he stood up with a surprised face, and then ran in front of him.

"Second child! You're back. The man complained to Li Kui with a handful of snot and tears: "Hurry up and persuade my mother, her old man won't let me enter the house." ”
