It's only half a day's journey from Lulin town. Standing by the carriage, Lin Xi felt a little bit sad at this bustling town which is similar to the "phoenix ancient city" of the world before him.
Yunqin's official ways are all close to the town, so they will not be blocked and become smoother. So although he and Liu Bo have passed through half of the Yunqin empire before, they have worn them again this time, but they haven't stayed in the big town all the way, so the bustling Donggang Town still makes him a little novel.
It's only a half day's journey. Lulin town is a little remote, but it's already a prosperous place.
Jiang Xiaoyi and Bian Linghan have already gone to other towns to report their entry into office. According to the rules, he also has to register his entry into office in this town before returning to Lulin town in his spare time. Otherwise, he will be considered as a deliberate delay and will be punished for his dissatisfaction with the official position representing the will of emperor Yunqin.
Peng Xiaofeng stands beside Lin Xi.
Although he is also wearing casual clothes, he is also an official rank from shipin. Because he is only 27 years old, he took over the responsibility of delivering Linxi to Donggang Town only four days ago, but because the age difference is not far, so the relationship between the two is excellent, and they are familiar with each other's temperament.
"Lord Lin, take a look all the way. You can walk in. But my duty is not to go back first. " Because Lin Xi got off just now. Looking at Donggang Town, he said he could go back first. Peng Xiaofeng shook his head. "At most, I will walk with you to the governor's office."
Lin Xi knew that although Peng Xiaofeng was strictly in accordance with the laws and regulations of Shangfeng, there was no inquiry about his origin along the way. Moreover, he had previously participated in the entrance examination of qingluan college. Originally, only the governor of Ludong Lingling knew that whether he could be admitted was confidential. Peng Xiaofeng, a low-level sergeant, would not be able to connect him with the students of qingluan college, but he was also very clear. Peng Xiaofeng No matter how stupid he is, it should be seen that he is different from ordinary junior officers. The most normal idea is to associate him with the children of some senior officials or students who are cultivated deliberately. Moreover, in recent days, he knew that Peng Xiaofeng, a real officer of Yunqin, was not only meticulous in the execution of orders, but also that people in this world were much more rigid in temperament, especially for the concept of rank and dignity. He and qingluan college are almost two worlds. For example, in recent days, Lin Xi asked him not to call his own Lord Lin, but to call his name directly That's enough, but Peng Xiaofeng still refuses to change his mind and is very polite.
At the moment, looking at the respectful Reply of the young soldier of the Empire, Lin Xi just nodded and smiled: "it's so good, so please bother brother Peng to accompany me for a long time."
Peng Xiaofeng's face was tight and said, "you are welcome, Lord Lin. this is a low position."
Lin Xi strolled in the streets of Donggang Town.
The journey is too long and I believe that qingluan college is too high, not like the human world. At present, Donggang Town is a real human world, a prosperous world.
Restaurants, pawnshops, teahouses, silk houses, tailors, flower houses Used to the quiet of qingluan college, Lin Xi was not used to it for a while, but the familiar accent around made Lin Xi feel that all this became more real.
Although it is more prosperous than Lulin Town, but some living habits and eating are no different from Lulin town.
In the morning, people in Lulin town like to eat spicy sliced pork with thick sauce. In the morning, people in Lulin town like to eat minced meat pancakes.
The streets are carved with anti-skid prismatic bluestone slab roads. The buildings on both sides of the streets are very ancient to Linxi, especially different from Lulin town. Donggang Town also has a shallow channel on both sides of the street because of the near water. There are gentle and clear water flowing inside. There are some places where the shallow channels are relatively wide, and there are also small wooden bridges or stone arch bridges.
Reflecting the shadow of the small bridge and the branches of the trees on the road, there are some green water plants growing inside. Occasionally, the petals during the period of being blown down by the wind float on the water and slide slowly.
Along the way, there are people washing rice and vegetables, or washing some utensils.
Lin Xi walked happily to a pancake shop with faded signs.
"Brother Peng, do you want to eat this Patty?"
Smelling the familiar flavor of the pancakes, Lin Xi turned her head and asked to follow Peng Xiaofeng.
Peng Xiaofeng intuitively wanted to say no, but looking at Lin Xi's cheerful look, he nodded like a ghost, saying, "OK."
The two fried meat cakes were immediately put into Peng Xiaofeng's hands. Lin Xi grabbed the two fried meat cakes wrapped in paper rolls and nibbled them slowly. He continued to walk forward.
"The meat is delicious, but the key is not clenbuterol."
At the thought of this sentence, Lin Xi's corner of the mouth began to drift again with a smile.
Most of the streets of Donggang Town are close to the river. Many houses and shops are built by the water. There are also several large Langfang along the river and many stone wharves for small fishing boats.
Lin Xi has eaten two pieces of pancakes and walked leisurely on a street along the river with his back. There are large thick cloth awnings along the river in the south of the distance. The houses look stacked. I don't know what market it is. Reflected in the beautiful landscape, it looks very good to him.
In the middle of the river on the other side is an island only a few mu square, and there are several fishing boats nearby casting nets.
While he was standing to watch the natural picture, he could not help but vaguely hear the sound of quarrels in the street ahead.
Lin Xi himself is not worried. If he wants to have a good look at the scenery of Donggang Town, he follows the sound to join in the bustle.
However, there was only a noodle shop at the back of the shop which was only one road away from the Linjiang shop. Before the noodle shop, there was an old woman in her fifties who was white and trembling. She was extremely angry but did not dare to make a sound. Beside her, there was a bean curd stall that she met. The scattered bean curd and juice poured all over the place.
A lot of people have gathered around to watch. A young man with an accent that sounds like a foreigner is angrily blocking a big black man in a black silk shirt. The big black man is sneering and speechless.
Only after listening to a few words and the whispers around him, Lin Xi knew about it. The black faced man knocked over the tofu pole the old woman was carrying here. Instead of paying for it, he blamed the old woman for walking carelessly. The burden also scratched his silk clothes and asked the old woman to pay for it.
This young foreigner should be a businessman who happened to pass Donggang Town. When he saw him, he couldn't help but come out to fight against injustice and ask the black faced man to make compensation.
Listening to what he said at the moment, it was the dark man who had run into the old woman himself, not the old woman who didn't notice him.
"Isn't this man often at fourth Master Zhu's place This foreigner will surely suffer a great loss if he goes on fighting. "
"This is Zhu Siye's man?"
"Then hurry to remind the young man, or he will suffer a great loss."
At this time, the voice of several people talking behind him fell into Lin Xi's ear again.
Lin Xi frowned quietly and turned around. He saw an old man with two killed fish, a woman with wet clothes, and a man who looked like a shopkeeper in a nearby shop. Judging from his accent and clothes, he should be a nearby townsman.
Just as he turned around, he saw that the old man put the grass rope with the fish in his hand into the hand of the man with the appearance of the shopkeeper nearby, as if he was going to go up to open the young man, but at this time, it was a scream. The young man in the other country stepped back several times, almost fell down, but was sneered at by the black man who didn't care to answer, and pushed him hard.
"I don't have much flesh. How dare I come out and meddle?" Push away the young stranger, and the black faced man sneered.
The face of the young foreigner was red. He said angrily, "in broad daylight, do you dare to commit murder? Anyway, it's unreasonable. I'll take you to see the official. "
"I'll give you one last word, it's not something you can afford." The black faced man looked at the young stranger with disdain and said, "if you want to pester me again, even if I take you to fight, no one will take care of you."
The old woman who had been hit by the tofu stall began to pull the young stranger constantly, and at the same time, she said something in a low voice anxiously. But the young man became more and more angry, and said: "what is the reason of my way? It turns out that it is the local leader of some forces, so I don't believe that under the law of Yunqin, you are allowed to do so in vain!"
The black man's face sank completely and began to look ferocious: "it seems that you are really tired of living?"
"If you don't..."
The young man from other places stepped forward, but before he could finish what he said, Peng's foot, the black faced man kicked him in the abdomen, which made him sit on the ground and cover his abdomen for a while, even unable to breathe.
"Hum!"
The black faced man sneered scornfully, turned his head and walked away. For a while, no one stopped him.
Peng Xiaofeng's face sank, but before he could make any move, Lin Xi had already stepped forward and said to the black faced man, "this brother is so powerful, I don't know his name?"
"Why, do you want to meddle?" The black faced man looked at Lin Xi and thought that he had nothing to do with it, so he sneered indirectly.
"In that case, I'll be straight." Looking at the black faced man, Lin Xi said seriously, "you still have to admit your mistake and compensate for the money, including this brother you beat up. At least you have to be beaten and compensated according to the law. You have to pay for three liang of silver. Otherwise, you have to go to the house of catcher."
The black faced man took a look at Lin Xi, pulled his sleeve, and said, "it seems that you are also itchy, and I want to help you beat you."
"Brother Peng, I need your help, but don't call me Lord Lin." At this time, Peng Xiaofeng has come up from behind, but Lin Xi pulled him, whispered a word, and said, "don't fight back."
Peng Xiaofeng was stunned quietly, but he seemed to understand Lin Xi's intention and went straight to the black man.
"You really think I can't get along with Chen Tong."
Looking at Peng Xiaofeng's provocative action, the black faced man reached out and shook his hands and kicked him out.
"Peng" a sound, Peng Xiaofeng's chest appeared a slightly wet footprints, a stuffy hum, back a few steps.
"It's just a silver gun wax." The black faced man was relieved when he arrived.
But at this time, Lin Xi smiled, clapped his hands, and said, "well, this is enough for six months."
