Chapter 839: Misfortune

Liang Feng saw that the Huicheng was moored in the wharf, and the unique topography of this place made him feel moved, and the exit from the ferry wharf to the open sea was very narrow, and only one sailboat could pass at a time.

From the outside, it is difficult to reach the boats in the port if there is wind and waves at sea, but from the inside, it is also difficult to escape from the port in case of an emergency.

"Shang Xian?" Qi Lao Liu looked at Liang Feng looking at the ferry wharf and reminded in a low voice: "Further on, we people live in Qijia Village, Shang Xian is willing to go in and sit and rest for a while?"

Liang Feng came back to his senses and nodded, "Let's go." ”

Turning over the hill to see a relatively flat valley, in which there are rows of tile houses, the cover is neat and neat, and it has been carefully planned, and a big stone at the entrance of the village has three big characters written on it.

Qi Lao Liu took Liang Feng and others into the village, walked to the house where he lived, there was a couplet posted at the door, the handwriting was vigorous and powerful, but the paper was very shabby, Liang Feng asked Qi Lao Liu: "This is what you wrote yourself?"

"Sacrifice ugliness, sacrifice ugliness. ”

Liang Feng said: "I can't think of a good handwriting you wrote, why do you want to go to sea to fish and sanitate, isn't it good to teach people to read and write?"

Alas~

Qi Lao Liu sighed and said: "Shangxian doesn't know, Qi Lao Liu was originally a teacher, but unfortunately King Yulan dislikes readers, and in the early years, he ordered a ban on teaching and literacy. ”

"How can this be?" Liang Fengqi said: "The king of a country should not open the wisdom of the people in order for everyone to live a good life, why did King Yulan do the opposite?"

"Shangxian is a Ming monarch, of course he thinks that the wisdom of the people is a good thing, but King Yulan doesn't think so, he ranks last among the eight kings of Minlan, and the fief is also the smallest, and those who can read and hyphenate often go to the fiefs of other kings, and the population here is decreasing year by year, so King Yulan is angry and is not allowed to read and write. ”

Tianyang Cheng asked, "Isn't he forcing more people to flee if he acts so perversely?"

"That's what the lord said. Qi Lao Liu said: "Because of the large number of people who fled, King Yulan simply sent troops to block the border of the fiefdom and forbade the people to enter and leave at will, and the rest of the people could only obediently listen to him." ”

Liang Feng nodded, somewhat understanding what King Yulan had done, if he didn't do this, his fiefdom would soon be hollowed out, and what was the use of guarding the open space when everyone left.

"The people here are living a hard life, right?"

Qi Lao Liu said: "Thanks to the blessing of the immortals, although we can't trade normally with other fiefdoms, we can make a living by farming and fishing by ourselves, but we are just a little tighter, and the ferry terminal was leased out by King Yulan, which is also a good income, and it is reasonable to say in general." ”

"Who is the ferry terminal leased to?" Liang Feng asked, these fleets of Huitong Sailors staying here have always been a threat to Zhongtianfu, and they must find an opportunity to destroy them all.

"This... Qi Lao Liu said: "This matter is under the jurisdiction of a special Caodu official, others don't know, if the immortal wants to know, the little old man can take the immortal to see the Caodu official." ”

Liang Feng waved his hand and said, "No need." "What he thinks about is how to destroy the Huitong Water Master, and he is an enemy of this Caodu official.

Qi Lao Liu told Liang Feng in detail about the various customs and customs of King Yulan's fiefdom, and Qi Lao Liu's family members had already put on a banquet and invited Liang Feng and others to the table.

Liang Feng and others were very gracious, so they sat down in turn according to Qi Laoliu's arrangement, Qi Laoliu sat in the position of the next host, and Liang Feng sat in the position of the first guest of honor, it can be seen that Qi Laoliu has considerable attainments in drinking culture, not just a teacher who keeps to himself.

Qi Lao Liu stood up with his wine glass with both hands and said: "Liang Shangxian, Heavenly Immortal, Moon Girl, Wu Girl, and Young Master Lin'er, it is a blessing for Qijia Village to be able to come to my Qijia Village today. After speaking, he drank the wine in the cup.

Liang Feng sniffed with his nose, and the wine in the cup exuded a faint aroma, not a strong wine, so he stood up and drank it all, and lit up the bottom of the glass.

Qi Lao Liu didn't expect Liang Feng to understand the rules of the wine table, and said happily: "It turns out that the rules of drinking here are the same as mine, it's really good!"

"Is it?There are immortals coming to Qijia Village, why don't you notify the official?" A shrill voice came from outside the door, and then a fat man wearing a robe and an official belt walked in.

Qi Laoliu's face turned pale, and then he smiled and said, "It turns out that it is, Lord Lu, the official of Caodu, please take a seat!"

The fat man surnamed Lu stared at Liang Fengfeng up and down for a while, and asked, "Who are you, I have never seen you before, how did you come to my Yulan Kingdom?"

Liang Feng also looked at the fat man surnamed Lu coldly, and said lightly: "What does this have to do with the honorable driver?"

Fat Lu glared and said, "Didn't you hear what the surname Qi said?" Lord Ben is the Caodu official in charge of Chongde Wharf, but everyone who comes here must tell this official!"

"Is it?" Liang Feng asked, "Is this Qijia Village within the jurisdiction of Chongde Wharf?" Liang Feng had already learned from what Qi Lao Liu said that Qijia Village did not belong to the jurisdiction of Chongde Wharf.

Uh! Lu Fatzi's face turned red, he was used to being presumptuous in Qijia Village, and he had long forgotten that this place was not under his control, and he was stopped by Liang Feng's question, his mouth moved a few times, his expression became fierce, and he asked: "Although this place is not under the control of this official, but did you go ashore from Chongde Wharf, your ship and the people on board are in the hands of this official!"

Liang Feng's eyes lit up, and the fat man Lu shivered when he saw it, and said in his heart: This kid is not very old, and he is so strong, could it be that the background is not simple?

Thinking of this, Lu Fatzi softened his tone and asked: "Your Excellency may not know the rules of Chongde Wharf when you first arrive, but whenever a foreign ship docks, you must first come to Caodu Guan's side to register and make a register. After speaking, he waved his hand, and one of the two officials who came with him handed Liang Feng a piece of paper, which listed all the information that needed to be filled in, the list of personnel, the name of the ship, the purpose of coming to Yulan Country, and so on.

Liang Feng put the paper on the table, suddenly turned his head to look at Qi Lao Liu, who was drooping his head, and asked, "You notified the Caodu official to come over?"

Qi Laoliu's face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "This, Xiao Lao'er is also forced to do so, and it is a big crime not to report it." ”

Liang Feng nodded and asked, "Just now you asked me to wait to find the Cao Yun Officer, but you want us to go to war?"

"How can there be such a thing?" Qi Lao Liu's expression was even more panicked: "The conscience of heaven and earth, the immortals have given us fish, and the little old man is already grateful, how can he have the idea of harming the immortals?"

Liang Feng sneered: "Ben Shangxian has always believed in the belief that there must be a lot of deception, and a few fish can make you grateful for it, and it is a guest who is invited to eat a feast?
