Chapter 111: Joseon County
After passing the single big ridge, you will enter Lelang County, but the area close to the single mountain is deserted, on the one hand, because this is the border between the Han and the three Koreas, and on the other hand, because there are many fierce birds and beasts in the single mountain alone, although the number is not much, but it will also pose a threat to people.
Soon after flying north, everyone saw a city, the city is not big, at least not as big as Chang'an, but larger than the city of the Japanese people, the city wall is also taller and stronger, and the houses in the city have obvious characteristics of Han architecture.
Yun Yi ordered the crane to land a few miles outside the city, and everyone walked towards the city.
There were people coming in and out of the gates, but they were not very many. On the left and right of the city gate stood two teams of officers and soldiers who checked the identities of the people entering the city, but the officers and soldiers were all soldiers and ruffians who took bribes in the name of checking and collecting money.
"We don't have any money on us, why do we go in?" the fat man asked with a frown.
"I don't know, let's go over and have a look first, maybe I can be accommodating. Yun Yi replied.
"Those who are soldiers are not your relatives, so you have to be accommodating early. The fat man pointed to the people who had been turned away.
"What are those two words, the old man doesn't know. Turtle San pointed to the two big characters on the city gate and asked.
"That's the official book, and those two words are 'North Korea'. Yun Yi replied.
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Qin system was inherited, and the official small seal was used, but the small seal strokes were round, and it was difficult to write on the bamboo slips, so it was replaced by the official script with square strokes.
Although there is now low-cost and easy-to-write paper, the texture of the paper is not very good and has not yet been widely popularized, so Lishu is still the official common language of the Han Dynasty.
Hearing this, the turtle nodded its head, it hadn't been back to Middle-earth for more than four hundred years, and it didn't know a lot of things.
"The county capital of Lelang County is in North Korea County, if they don't let us in for a while, don't quarrel with them, and we can go in when it gets dark." Yun Yi said to the fat man.
The fat man answered, and said something to Fujiwara Kikutei, who was at a loss.
After everyone followed the team into the city, Yun Yi stood in the front row, and when he was lined up, the short and fat officers and soldiers in charge of the investigation said with a lazy expression: "Where are you from, how come I have never seen you?"
Yun Yi understood that the other party was asking him for benefits, and said with a smile: "Master Jun, Poor Dao was originally a person from Chang'an, and he went overseas two years ago, and he only returned to Middle-earth today, can you be accommodating and let Poor Dao and others go in." ”
The short and fat officer and soldier were not easy to fool, so he sneered twice when he heard this, rubbed his palms and said: "Look at your face, you shouldn't be very old, and you can still travel overseas? ”
"Poor Dao is really a ...... of Chang'an people"
"Where is there so much nonsense, if there is no evidence to prove your identity, you will be punished. The short and fat officer and soldier impatiently pushed Yun Yi away, and hooked his finger at the fat man, "Next." ”
"The two of us are together, and that one is my junior brother just now. "The fat man took the opportunity to take advantage of Yunyi.
"Stand up. When the short and fat officer heard that the two of them were together, he waved his hand impatiently at the fat man.
"Master Jun, we want to enter the city, you can do it. The fat man squeezed out a smile and said.
"There are more people who want to enter the city, who knows if you are Goguryeo's fine work, get out of the way, and then talk nonsense Lao Tzu will stab you to death!" The short and fat officer shook the spear in his hand to intimidate the fat man.
"Damn, who are you scaring about?" the fat man widened his eyes.
"Don't be too troublesome. Yun Yi saw that the fat man was angry, and hurriedly reminded him.
"Scare, let's see if Lao Tzu scares you!" The short and fat officer and soldier also widened his eyes, raised his spear and pointed at the fat man, and shouted, "Get out!"
Yun Yi saw that the situation was not good, and grabbed the fat man who was about to have a seizure.
On the other side, the two officers and soldiers also grabbed the short and fat officers and soldiers, and persuaded: "Forget it, let them in, look at their own Taoist clothes, they seem to be really Taoists, I'm afraid it's not easy to provoke." ”
When the short and fat officer heard this, his eyes rolled, he turned sideways to get out of the way, and shouted to Yunyi and the fat man: "Grandpa, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll open the net and let you into the city." ”
Yun Yi didn't understand why the other party suddenly changed his attitude, but he still thanked the other party, called out to the few people behind, and pulled the fat man towards the city.
"Yo, my ass is quite upright, I'm afraid I can pinch out the water. The short and fat officer looked at Yun Lan and said.
Yun Yi frowned and glanced at the other party, who gave him a provocative look, and then turned his head to look at Fujiwara Juting.
"That's not bad either. The officer reached out and slapped Fujiwara Kikutei's buttocks.
Seeing this, Fujiwara Kikutei was so frightened that he lost his face and quickly hid in the fat man.
The people around did not move forward at this time, and looked lively on the spot. Several officers and soldiers saw that the short and fat officer was a little out of line, and stepped forward to stop him.
"Yo, where are you hiding?" The officer and soldier did not stop, pushing away the two beside him, intending to bypass the fat man and then stretch out his hand to Tang Yuan Juting.
The fat man was already furious, and when the other party approached, he grabbed the opponent's collar and threw it at the city wall, and the back of the officer's head hit the hard wall brick, and his nostrils were bloody, and he slid down the city wall like a loach to the base of the wall, and his limbs twitched, and he completely lost his breath in a few moments.
Those onlookers were originally watching the excitement, but no one expected that the fat man would be angry and kill, and when they saw this bloody scene, they were so shocked that their faces were colorless, and they couldn't help but scatter around.
The officers and soldiers at the gate of the city were of good quality, and they reacted after a moment of astonishment, and raised their spears to surround everyone.
Although those officers and soldiers surrounded everyone, they did not dare to move everyone, they were all raised by their fathers and mothers, and no one had paste in their heads, and the fat man threw the short and fat officers and soldiers to the city wall with only one hand, and the arm strength displayed was enough to shock.
"Get out of the way of grandpa, or I'll kill you!" the fat man was still angry, and yelled at the officers and soldiers with a gloomy face.
When the officers and soldiers heard this, they looked at each other, and seeing that the fat man's face was getting more and more ugly, they immediately divided into two teams to get out of the way, and a few people with high vision even took the initiative to open the barricades at the city gate.
"Let's go. Yun Yi patted the fat man on the shoulder and walked towards the city gate.
Walking to the door, Yun Yi noticed that there was a wanted notice posted at the gate of the city, which depicted the leader of the gang of bandits he met in Shan Dan Daling.
Yun Yi didn't look closely at what was written in the wanted notice, turned his head and asked the officers and soldiers next to him, "This person is a fine work of Goguryeo?"
"Long words back, this person is not a meticulous work, but the Yellow Turban Thieves," the officer and soldier replied tremblingly: "Just last year, the former Youzhou Mu Liu Yu colluded with the Yellow Turban Thieves to rebel against the imperial court, and later Liu Yu was defeated and died, this thief led more than ten thieves to abscond out of the country, and the current government offered a reward of 10,000 dollars for this thief. ”
"Can the dead be exchanged for a reward?" Yun Yi asked again, everyone had just returned from overseas, and they were penniless, so their livelihood in the future was very problematic.
"If the Taoist can bring this thief's head, he can go to the county government to receive the reward. Seeing that Yun Yi didn't mean to embarrass him, the officer and soldier relaxed a lot.
Yun Yi nodded when he heard this, and turned to look at the fat man: "You go and bring that guy's head back." ”
"Yes, but I have to ride your birds. When the fat man heard that there was a reward from the government to receive, he happily agreed.
Yun Yi nodded, instructed Yun Lan to show his original form, and flew the fat man to Danshan Daling. He had taught Yun Lan Chinese, and although Yun Lan was not very familiar with it, he could still understand the simple Chinese dialect, and it was not difficult for the fat man to summon it.
Seeing that Yun Lan turned into a white crane on the spot, those officers and soldiers and the people were dumbfounded, the fat man was wearing the clothes of a Japanese man, but Yun Yi was a righteous Taoist outfit, and there was a crane mount, mistakenly thinking that he was a master of cultivation.
"Is the Taoist really coming back from overseas?" the officer and soldier who had just been questioned by Yun Yi asked in astonishment.
Yun Yi smiled and nodded at the other party, this person is very discerning, he has persuaded the short and fat officer and soldier who was killed by the fat man before, and he is also among the people who took the initiative to open the barricade.
"Is the Taoist chief short of money?" The officers and soldiers saw that Yun Yi was not difficult to get along with, and they were not very restrained in their speech.
"I just came back from overseas, and I really don't have any money. Yun Yi smiled and nodded.
"The Taoist Chief's strength is outstanding, and the Taoist Chief has an immortal crane mount, so he must be a master of the Dao," the officer and soldier walked up to Yun Yi and lowered his voice, "With the ability of the Taoist Chief, if you go to take refuge with a prince, you will inevitably be praised as a guest, why worry about having no money?"
Yun Yi saw through what the other party was thinking, but he didn't pierce the other party, and said with a smile: "The masters of the Tao are all looking like cranes and children, fairy wind and bones, and the poor people are not old, not the masters of the Dao." ”
"The Taoist is too modest, Huo Qubing went out to fight against the Huns at the age of seventeen, killed more than 2,000 enemies, was named the champion Hou, and had 1,600 households, and the Taoist chief did not know how to march and set up the formation, and there were also high Xuan spells......"
"You are not Lu Buwei, and you are not Qin Yiren, and strange goods will not work. Yun Yi waved his hand to interrupt the other party's words, "You know more than ordinary soldiers, and your mind is also very flexible. ”
The officer and soldier laughed twice when they heard this, and said no more.
"What will the government do with us?" Yun Yi turned his head to look at the edge of the city wall, and when the two of them spoke, the corpse had been carried away by several other officers and soldiers, but the blood stains that had not yet dried were still very eye-catching.
"Presumably...... The county guard should not be a long waiter. The officer and soldier were speechless and uncertain.
Yun Yi nodded, and didn't ask any more, although the other party was much smarter than other officers and soldiers, but in the end he was still a city gatekeeper, and he didn't even see the county guard on weekdays, so he naturally didn't know how the county guard would deal with this matter.
The fat man rode the crane alone, went fast and returned quickly, Yun Yi was talking to the officer and soldier, and the fat man had already come back with the head of the thief.
Although the fat man was very aggressive on weekdays, he was extremely careful with Fujiwara Kikutei, and he was worried that the bloody human head would scare her, so he wiped the blood on his skull and wrapped it in a cloth.
The officer and soldier had talked to Yun Yi a lot before, and he was a little familiar with Yun Yi, and he knew that the cloth bag carried by the fat man was the head of the thief, and he also knew that everyone was going to the county government to exchange for a reward, so he recommended himself to guide the way for everyone.
The officers and soldiers led the way to be false, the set was almost true, and the set was almost true, and he had to speak, and it was inconvenient for him to ask more about the origin of the people, so he told everyone about the customs and customs of this place.
The county seat of North Korea is located in the northeast, bordering Goguryeo, Haoqian and Mahan, and Lelang County used to be the capital of the Korean state, formerly known as Wangwei City, so the people in the city are not all Han people, but also many people from Wofu, Buyeo, Hui, and Sanhan, all in all, the people here are very mixed.
However, although the people in Joseon City are mixed, the people of other ethnic groups are also heavily influenced by Sinicization because they get along with the Han people all year round, and they learn Han clothes and languages. The Han Chinese here are also more or less influenced by other ethnic groups, and the local local language occasionally has Hu Yin.
