Chapter 99 Bai Ling Yuwei entered the Southern Tang Dynasty

Xu San set up a stall in the Imperial Tang City for three days to see a doctor, and only after there were really no patients coming did they pack up and set off again.

In the past, from Dachu to the Southern Tang Dynasty, it was necessary to clear the customs documents before they could be released, but it was not difficult to want this customs clearance documents, and the price in this Yutang City was clearly marked and sold, but it was not how much money a copy was, but according to the head of the money, and adding one more person's name would cost five taels of silver.

In fact, this matter was made to the capital in the past, and I don't know if the officials on the court side took the silver of the wealthy merchants who traveled the two countries, and stuck to this matter.

However, it was the second prince Chu Tianxiong who was guarding the border in the Southern Tang Dynasty at that time, and after hearing the news, he just sent back a sentence lightly: If this toll is not charged, the military salary of the soldiers on the border of Youzhou will be paid by the officials above the sixth grade in the capital.

After this sentence was passed back, the court that had been noisy the day before was instantly quiet, and the group of self-proclaimed honest officials shouted poverty in the hall with snot and tears.

With the holy decree that Chu Zheng no longer prohibits trade between the two countries a few days ago, it is basically not necessary to pass the customs now.

But even so, those businessmen who make a living by trading between the two countries will still give a great tribute to the border soldiers.

If someone really thinks that after the emperor's decree, he doesn't need to give any money, he won't have to eat the bowl of business, because he is too brainless.

If you don't pay homage, people can detain your goods for one reason or another, and what can you do?

Now the New Year's Pass has just passed, there is still a bit of cold breath of residual winter in the air, at the gate of the city of Yutang City to the direction of the Southern Tang Dynasty, there are two strings of merchants queuing up to pay the silver money to pass the customs, one side is out of the customs, and the other side is naturally the one who enters the customs.

After the absence of customs clearance documents, it is now according to the amount of goods to give silver, which is also the so-called policy, there are countermeasures, the specific algorithm is not clear, but in general it is cheaper than when paying per capitation.

By the time Wang Xuanlang and the four of them arrived, Ergou was no longer as ignorant of human feelings as before, and took the initiative to send a money bag containing ten taels of silver.

The soldiers defending the city weighed it with their hands a few times after taking the money bag, and then took the initiative to take out about half of the silver from the bag and return it to Jiang Ergou.

"Damn, don't you kid don't understand the rules, every penny of silver in our Yutang City is collected according to the rules, and I will definitely not take half a cent more from you, do you kid want to bribe me to make me lose this fat difference guarding the city gate? Hurry up and get out of your money!"

No one wants to take the initiative to send silver, this is the first time Ergou has encountered such a scene, it seems that the second brother of Chu Wushuang, who has never met, was still managing quite well when he was at the border.

Ergou took the silver and returned it after some false thanks, but he muttered that there was something wrong with his brain at the moment he turned around.

Walking out of the city gate, Ergou and his party can be regarded as completely out of Dachu, but now it can't be counted as their arrival in Southern Tang, because there is still a war zone of about fifty miles between Dachu and Southern Tang.

However, now that the war between Dachu and the Southern Tang Dynasty has ceased for a long time, this war zone has also been turned into a smooth trade route by merchants coming and going.

It took most of the day to travel this way, and the two dogs finally arrived at the first city on the border of the Southern Tang Dynasty before closing the door, Blocking Chu City.

I don't know if this name was changed after hearing about Yutang City, but it does seem a little casual.

When you go out of Dachu, you need to pay a money for entering the customs, so after you arrive in the Southern Tang Dynasty, you naturally need to pay a money for entering the customs, which is not much, as much as the money collected by the Southern Tang Dynasty.

At the gate of Chu City, in addition to the ordinary city guards, there is also a team of elite cavalry riding white horses to assist in the defense, and the black armor of Da Chu is just the opposite, these cavalry are wearing a white robe, the mount under the crotch is also a white horse, and there is a snow-white feather on the helmet that I don't know what kind of animal it is taken from fluttering in the wind.

Although this cavalry only stood there quietly and did not move, it gave people the feeling that it was not much better than Da Chu's black-armored Xuan cavalry.

"Old man, the forces in each place you mentioned have their own killer weapons, so these cavalry troops should be the killer weapons of the Southern Tang Dynasty!"

Wang Xuanlang glanced at the cavalry and spoke.

"When I was young, I came to the Southern Tang Dynasty a few times, and I have seen these cavalry a few times, it seems that they are called Bailing Yuwei, which was specially established by the monarch of the Southern Tang Dynasty to fight against the black armor Xuanqi of Great Chu. However, the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty is not large, only about half of the Great Chu, and the number of these White Feather Guards is not too much, it is estimated that there can be 80,000 of them, and the quality is a little worse than the Black Armor Xuan Cavalry, but this White Feather Guard is also the most elite group of cavalry in the world. ”

Hearing the old man's words, Ergou was terrified again, he hadn't forgotten what the old man said, this kind of cavalry can surround and kill a first-class master to death.

The old man couldn't help but be a little teasing after seeing Ergou's expression, probably guessing Ergou's thoughts, he chuckled and explained.

"You don't need to worry too much, what I said about their ability to besiege and kill the first-grade master is based on the situation that the first-rank master is bent on death, under normal circumstances, it is difficult for them to keep the first-grade master, and the first-grade master will not put himself in that kind of danger. ”

While talking, the two dogs and they entered the city of blocking Chu, and as soon as they entered the city, the two dogs felt the difference between the rivers and lakes of the Southern Tang Dynasty and the rivers and lakes of the Great Chu, if the rivers and lakes of the Great Chu are still a swordsman with a bit of elegance, then the rivers and lakes of the Southern Tang Dynasty are a complete sword reckless man, no wonder the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty is only half of the territory of the Great Chu, but it can compete with the top masters of the Great Chu.

The martial arts style of the Southern Tang Dynasty was extremely prosperous, especially the Li family, which was the royal family of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and had always encouraged the people to practice martial arts.

Just in the city of Blocking Chu, the martial arts are extremely prosperous, which is vividly reflected, and the big Chu side is full of small vendors selling rouge gouache, except for some food sellers on both sides of the street, they are all swinging and boxing.

As for those who want to buy rouge gouache and hairpin jewelry, please go to the street that is nicknamed Ladies Market by the Southern Tang Dynasty Hanzi!

After finding an inn that looked good to live in, Xu San went to work on his broken stall, and did not forget to accumulate yin virtue for himself at all.

Unlike the two stuffy old men who only wanted to stay in the inn, Ergou went downstairs to help Xu San set up the stall and walked around alone, thinking about whether this Nantang woman was more than Da Chu's.

Ergou walked on the road, and the heroine also saw a few, but all of them were big-shouldered and round-waisted, and at a glance they looked more like men than his Ergou, which also made Ergou have to sigh that there are still too few beautiful women like Qin Xuejian in the world.

After being disappointed in the woman, Ergou began to pay attention to the places where the ring was played, generally the higher the strength of the champion, the more onlookers under the ring.

After wandering around, Ergou found a ring with the largest audience and squeezed in, and after seeing the situation on the stage clearly, he understood why there were the most spectators here.

In addition to the strength of the champion reaching the top of the four grades, it is also because of a sign erected next to it.

Zhang Hu, the great disciple of the outer gate of the Wuji Palace, was ordered by the elders to swing here for ten days, and today has reached the eighth day, serving one hundred and fourteen battles, without a single defeat, and I hope that heroes from all walks of life will not hesitate to give advice!

Ladies and gentlemen, don't think that the strength of the four grades of this outer disciple is low, generally speaking, the disciples within the power are divided into the outer door, the inner door, and the true inheritance, and it is not easy for an outer disciple to have the strength of the four grades.

Zhang Hu on the stage said that he was not stingy in teaching, but his eyes were about to look to the sky, and he obviously did not look at everyone in the audience.

A few men who reached out and rubbed their chests were even more angry, as if they had just been beaten down by Zhang Hu from the ring.

Seeing that no one has come to the stage to compete for a long time, Ergou seems a little excited, just like that, it is better to see those Jianghu heroines with big shoulders and round waists!

But Ergou's lack of interest was seen by Zhang Hu on the stage, which made the latter think that Ergou didn't look down on his strength.

"Does this little brother look down on me Zhang Hu, if you don't come to the stage, let's compare, don't worry, I only use sixty percent of my strength, and I will definitely not take advantage of you." ”

Ergou looked at Zhang Hu on the stage with a stunned expression.

"No, you... When I said I was going to fight you, I just came to see the fun. ”

"Look at the excitement, how about the little brother come up and play with both hands, if you don't come, it's too seeded!"

In addition to Zhang Hu on the stage, the people in the audience also coaxed and said.

"It's just that you can't get a few kicks at most, and if you don't do it, you will lose face. ”

Ergou can withstand Wang Xuanlang's cynicism, but he can't stand the agitation of others, not to mention that he came to Nantang from Dachu with the signboard of Dachu Jianghu, no matter what, he can't embarrass Dachu Jianghu.

"Okay, that's what you said, don't blame me for beating you into a pig's head later!"

"Yo yo yo, you thin arms and legs still want to beat me into a pig's head, it's better that you don't cry for a while. ”

After Ergou jumped on the stage and stood firm, he still wanted to salute like in Da Chu, but Wang Hu had already kicked it over.

After the two exchanged thirty moves, they had already realized that there was no one between them.

This happens when Da Chu's words are over, even if the martial arts competition is over here, after stopping, you have to praise each other for saying that your kung fu is good or something.

But these rules changed after they arrived in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the more they fought, the more unconvinced they became, and the more angry they became.

After finding that the normal tricks were useless, the next tricks that they disdained to use in the past were also used by them, and all the tricks such as flirting with yin legs, pulling mi's claws, and mystical millennium killing were all used, but Wang Hu did not forget what he said at the beginning, and he has always suppressed the internal force at about sixty percent.

At the beginning, Ergou suffered a little loss, and after seeing Wang Hu's road changed, he also followed the blackening of his belly, which led to the result that after a fight, both of them had blue noses and swollen faces, and walked out of the ring with their legs between their legs, so they were still not convinced...

"Yo, you are very good at fighting, second dog boy, why did you come back like this!"

Wang Xuanlang looked at Jiang Ergou standing in front of him with a smile. Xu San was struggling to hold back his laughter on the side, probably because he was afraid that his future daughter-in-law would be in the soup, so he didn't dare to laugh out loud. The ghost hand doesn't have to hold back, but he is about to laugh on the side, and he is pinching the middle of the person with his hand to give himself a good breath.

"What do you mean by this? Do you think the guy I fought with is going to be better!"

The second dog stubbornly resisted and spoke out.

"That's it, as the so-called local customs, you also go to set up a ring to fight for ten days. ”

"What, old man, you're too ruthless!"

Jiang Ergou's desperate voice made the guests who had to eat in the lobby downstairs hear it clearly.
