Just after two bottles of wine, there was a loud noise outside the house.
The farmer frowned and said to Zhou Fei: "Drink slowly, I'll go out and have a look."
Zhou Fei nodded.
After the farmer went out for a while, the noise of cursing came from outside the house, his voice was so loud that the windows were trembling.
"Want me to give money? Impossible! According to the law, I can be exempted from this tax. Don't think that I am a rough man and don't understand Tang law!"
"This is the rule set by the county grandfather, and no one can make an exception."
"Lao Tzu is the exception."
"Niu Da, don't think you can ignore the authority of the county master after a few years as a soldier."
"Laozi abides by the Tang law, not the words of the county elder. If there is such a rule on the Tang law, let me pay the money, Laozi will not blink. You have the ability to ask the emperor to change the Tang law."
"You dare to insult your Majesty, I will go to Beijing to sue you."
"A Lizheng still wants to see the emperor? Are you funny, don't give it away."
Niuda returned to the house, picked up the wine bowl and drank a large bowl, and then wiped his mouth: "I want me to pay, but there is no door."
Zhou Fei didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, so he didn't have to say anything, but Niu Da's wife looked worried: "If it is really the order of the county master, you have disobeyed it so, it's not good."
Niu Da said nonchalantly: "What's the matter with the county master? The county master can ignore Tang Law. Don't be afraid of your daughter-in-law, we have Tang Law to support you."
It is estimated that he is a bit too drunk, Niuda speaks with a bit of big tongue, and his emotions are even more high than before. Seeing his wife, he is still very worried, he turned around and ran into the house to take out a knife, shook it in his hand: " During the years when I was in the army, the general taught me how to use the sword himself. If it really made me anxious, I would cut one at a time..."
The daughter-in-law scolded: "You are really a bastard, so quickly put the knife away and scare the guests."
He hurriedly apologized to the two Zhou Fei: "He is such a person. Don't blame the two of them. Eat vegetables and eat vegetables."
After a while, Niuda drank and fell to the ground. Zhou Fei helped his wife to put him on the bed, and then left.
The two found the head of the village. After Zhou Fei confirmed his identity, they moved in smoothly.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Fei didn't have any sleepiness, so he went to the small yard to look at it.
star.
Ling Zhaoyan also walked out of her house.
"Long night, I didn't want to sleep. I thought I was the only one who couldn't sleep. I didn't expect that girl Zhaoyan could not sleep either." Zhou Fei smiled and said a classic line.
However, Ling Zhaoyan didn't understand the meaning inside.
She has been talking nonsense again since Zhou Fei.
Zhou Fei asked himself to be boring, but he didn't feel disappointed either.
It's just that the kind of loneliness hidden in the deepest part of my heart has quietly spread.
In this world, I am still a little lonely after all.
"What are you thinking?" Ling Zhaoyan couldn't help asking when seeing Zhou Fei's expression a little lonely.
Zhou Fei said, "Oh, I was thinking about that before."
"What? Do you still want to uphold justice?" Ling Zhaoyan said.
Zhou Fei shook his head: "No, Datang’s justice comes from the law. I’m just very emotional. An ordinary farmer knows to take Tang Law’s weapons to protect his rights and interests. At the same time, these officials also know Tang Law’s rights. It’s fair, so I don’t dare to do anything to the peasants. Datang is not without corrupt officials or villains, but the law of Tang is always the law of Tang, it is there, and the justice of Datang is there."
Ling Zhaoyan frowned: "What do you mean by this?"
Zhou Fei stood up and stretched: "I mean, I fell in love with this country, and I am willing to fight for him all my life. This feeling has never appeared in my first half of my life, until today I see it. That farmer used Tang law as a weapon, and I found that I really loved this country. For the first time, I was proud of being a member of the Tang Dynasty."
Ling Zhaoyan thought for a while and decided to take all this as Zhou Fei's madness.
…
Keep going.
The weather is hotter by day.
In this world where clothes are worn a lot and there is no air conditioning, summer is very difficult.
Fortunately, Zhou Fei, as an inscriber, has some means to cool down.
And it has been prepared before.
He engraved two cooling inscriptions on the carriage, which can keep the carriage at 26 degrees Celsius, which is the most comfortable for the human body, forever.
The masters of this era have a set of heatstroke prevention methods, so Ling Zhaoyan is not too surprised, or even feels very normal.
The carriage followed the official messenger group so slowly, the distance between the two sides was about fifty miles, occasionally Zhou Fei would also play
Xing Dafa went to the county road for a stroll, and when he was about to lose the official envoy group, he returned to the official road again, and then ran up to the envoy group, keeping the distance between the two sides at about fifty miles.
This surprised Ling Zhaoyan.
She wondered how Zhou Fei accurately positioned it.
Zhou Fei didn't explain much either.
Soon, the carriage drove into a canyon.
This is also a journey that Zhou Fei is looking forward to very much.
This canyon is called Qingfeng Gorge.
The name reminds Zhou Fei of the movie Green Hornet played by a certain star in his own family.
The movie is not good, the acting skills are also very mediocre, but the name is easy to remember.
This canyon divides the territory of the Tang Dynasty and is the dividing line between the Central Plains and the northwest.
From the canyon to the cloud, there is only one narrow passage that can pass through. For nearly a hundred years, Datang has spent countless manpower and material resources to transform this canyon, turning it into an unbreakable natural barrier and countless institutions. Runes were arranged on both sides of the gorge, and there were many secret posts buried in the middle of the cliff. In order to dig out these secret posts and zipline roads, I don’t know how many craftsmen died in the gorge.
However, this approach is worthwhile.
Because after passing this gorge, they will face the plain where there is almost no scourge, and the cavalry will be faster, and they can charge to the bottom of Chang'an within two days!
Before setting off, the Master had instructed Zhou Fei, hoping that he would watch and understand more when he passed the canyon.
Zhou Fei didn't feel too much at the time, but now he was immersed in the scene, but he suddenly understood the master's good intentions.
Once the enemy decides to break through Datang's defense line from here, he will definitely be fully prepared, and the runes and organs in the canyon will also be taken care of.
The only way to let the rune organs exert their maximum power is to send someone to guard it.
With one's own strength, drag the enemy.
Zhou Fei shuddered suddenly.
Isn't the Master wanting him to do this
Are you kidding me? With this strength of my own, he is destined to be crushed into flesh in the face of thousands of troops.
So if there is such a day in the future, who will guard this place
Will it be the Master
Or is it one of several seniors
The carriage left the gorge, Zhou Fei turned to look at the gorge that was going away, but his thoughts did not stop.
