Chapter 204 Assassination
Although Fengmen Village has the word "village" in its name, the actual area of the village is not small and is more similar to a town. However, the Davidic Dynasty did not have the level of a town in its geographical territory. Only the Da Ting Dynasty in the east used the word "town".
Therefore, even if Fengmen Village is not small, it cannot be called Fengmen Town. Otherwise, once it is regarded as a member of the Da Ting Dynasty, the lives of all the people in the village will be judged here.
The reason why Fengmen Village is called this is because at the entrance of Fengmen Village, there are several old locust trees that can be said to be blocking the sky and the sun. These old locust trees cover up the entrance of the village. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it.
It is not always possible to find the entrance to the village, hence the name Fengmen Village.
Wei Wuji had done some information before setting off and did not dare to talk about other places. However, he still knew several villages along the way from Xiangliao County to Changping Prefecture, so he was not fooled by the old locust tree at the entrance of the village and found the village.
Go in decisively at the entrance.
Although it is already getting dark, this is the most lively time for Fengmen Village, because after a busy day, there are many people in the village eating, walking, walking dogs, and playing children.
It can be said that there is a lot of people, but after this period of time, the village will immediately become quiet as if no one is there.
As for Wei Wuji, an outsider, people in the village also looked at him with curiosity. After all, Wei Wuji was too tall. In the new year, Wei Wuji was one year older and his height had reached eight feet.
Seven inches.
This height, let alone in Xiangliao County, in Changping Prefecture, in Yongzhou, in the David Dynasty, even in the whole world, he would be considered a very tall person, although there is a taller person in Xiangliao County than Wei Wuji.
Even taller is Boyang, whose height of nine feet is rare in the world.
But to the villagers of Fengmen Village, the eight-foot-seven-inch Wei Wuji can be considered a giant. The adults were fine, but the children who were playing on the roadside stopped playing when they saw Wei Wuji.
, looking at Wei Wuji with his mouth wide open as if he couldn't believe there was such a tall person in the world.
Of course, the main reason why the villagers were not nervous when they saw Wei Wuji was that since he became rich, Wei Wuji had been wearing long gowns, which not only covered his horrific scars, but also concealed his explosive muscles to a certain extent.
If you just look at his face, you can tell that Wei Wuji is no more than twenty years old at most.
This age cannot be considered a child to the villagers, but he is still a young man. For the villagers who have caravans traveling between David and David in the Western Regions staying in the village from time to time, they are only aware of Wei Wuji's height.
Curious, but not scared or nervous.
While the villagers were looking at Wei Wuji, Wei Wuji was also looking at the village. The villagers were not surprised by the appearance of an outsider like him. It seemed that there were often caravans coming and going in this village, and the streets in the village were also very clean.
In terms of hygiene, it looks like a well-managed village.
Of course, Wei Wuji did not forget his purpose. He asked an older man on the side of the road, "Master, I would like to spend one night in the village. Is that possible?"
The uncle was startled by Wei Wuji's sudden conversation, but then he said enthusiastically: "Do you want to stay? There is an inn in our village, you can stay there."
This time it was Wei Wuji's turn to be startled and said in shock: "Uncle, do you still have an inn in this village?"
The uncle puffed up his chest and said proudly: "Of course! Young man, don't underestimate our Fengmen Village. To get to the inn, you only need to walk this way, and then walk this way again."
Wei Wuji thanked the uncle repeatedly and then followed the uncle's directions to find the inn in Fengmen Village. Wei Wuji's original idea was to pay for a night at a villager's house, but he never expected that there would be an inn in Fengmen Village.
Yuelai and Youjian will definitely not open a chain of inns here, because although caravans often pass by here, most of the caravans will spend the night in counties like Xiangliao County.
Very few people come to the village.
Because most caravans have their own fixed route plans, only people like Wei Wuji who don't care where they go can spend the night in the village. But if you want to rely on people like him to run an inn, you will have to lose money.
There are no pants left, so the inn in Fengmen Village should be opened by the villagers themselves.
Wei Wuji arrived at the place that the uncle told him and saw, as expected, the place was called an inn, which was actually a relatively large farmyard with several separate rooms for people to live in. If no one came to live in it, it would be his own yard.
You won't suffer too much.
As soon as the owner and his wife of this "inn" saw Wei Wuji's appearance, they knew that he was also coming to stay in the village. They immediately greeted him happily, and after asking about the situation, they led Wei Wuji into the courtyard.
When he got to the yard, Wei Wuji discovered that there were quite a lot of people living in this "inn". Because the area of each room was not large after the farmhouse was converted into this style, the dining area was arranged in
In the yard.
At this time, there were four tables of people eating in the yard. Wei Wuji glanced over and saw that one table was a middle-aged couple with two children about ten years old and an old woman. It looked like they were
A family of five.
There were two other tables that looked like they were people from the caravan. There were only two people sitting at the last table, a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her thirties and a girl who looked to be in her early twenties. There were also things on the table.
There were two weapons placed, which looked like knives.
But it wasn't this that made Wei Wuji unable to take his eyes away, but the girl's bright eyes, white teeth, and stunning beauty. The most important thing was that her hair was only left to her neck. At this age,
Even men don't have short hair easily, let alone women.
Maybe it was because Wei Wuji's eyes were too hot and direct, so the girl felt something and turned her head to look in. After seeing Wei Wuji, she was slightly startled, then nodded with a smile and turned her head back. It was the middle-aged woman sitting at the same table with her.
He glared at Wei Wuji fiercely, as if he regarded him as a prodigal.
Wei Wuji was just surprised to see this girl with short hair at first. Since she was already a little unhappy, there was no need to look any further.
After Wei Wuji withdrew his gaze, he sat down at a table under the leadership of the landlady. At the same time, he asked the landlady: "Madam, what kind of dishes do you have here?"
The wife of the boss replied: "They are just some home-cooked side dishes to satisfy my hunger. Do you want some?"
Wei Wuji nodded and said, "Well, I'm a little hungry. Please bring some of whatever food you have at home."
The landlady nodded and ran to the kitchen to cook for Wei Wuji. It seemed that there were only two employees in this "inn": the boss and the landlady. After Wei Wuji sat down, he started to look around again, but this time he skipped the girl's table.
Look at the people at the other three tables.
The table with a family of five caught Wei Wuji's attention because the men at that table had unusually thick joints in their hands, which looked much larger than those of ordinary people.
And this is what Wei Wuji found strange. The man's joints didn't look like they were polished by hard work, but more like they were polished by martial arts!
