Chapter 87

"Hey, is this a checkpoint?"

Perhaps because of the little wolf's cry, Piaoying had stopped. As soon as Ye Feng opened his eyes, he noticed something unusual. There was a roadblock on the official road.

"Liangzhaishan Inn?"

Ye Feng shook his head, and then he realized that there was a large building next to the official road. At the front was a five-story attic. The door of the attic was ajar, and there was a faint light coming out.

A string of lanterns was hung on the flagpole in front of the attic. Although it was already dark, the candles in the lanterns were not extinguished, and the five characters "Liangzhaishan Station" were clearly visible.

"They even forcibly cut off the official road to let people enter the inn. Isn't this forceful buying and selling? It's too overbearing!"

This is obviously not the inspection war that we thought before, because there are no inspectors on duty next to the antlers and iron horses that block the road. It seems that they can only force people to stay in the hotel.

"What nonsense? Who bought and sold by force?"

Just as Ye Feng was talking to himself, the attic door creaked open, and a middle-aged man wearing armor came out to drink.

"Huh!"

Ye Feng discovered at a glance that the man was already at the eighth level of qi training, and his cultivation was not weak. No wonder he could hear him talking to himself.

"Why is it that this wild boy is talking nonsense and still doesn't get off his horse when he sees me, the captain!"

"Haha! Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist, because good official roads are not allowed to pass. It's no wonder that people think wildly. What on earth do you dare to ask, fellow Taoist?"

Ye Feng didn't care about the man, he got off his horse and asked politely, cupping his fists.

He has a special physique, and people don't know that he is a late-stage master of Qi Condensation. Of course, even at the eighth level of Qi training, one cannot see through the Qi Condensation Master's cultivation, so there is nothing to blame.

"Fellow?"

When the man saw that Ye Feng was a fellow Taoist and had a blood wolf under his crotch, he didn't dare to be careless, and his mind immediately started racing.

He was originally a sergeant, and he had seen the market. Ye Feng seemed to him to be a mortal, but judging from his demeanor, it was obvious that he was not. That only meant that his cultivation level was much higher than his. He clasped his fists politely and said:

"Fellow Taoist, you have misunderstood! This is the Liangzhai Mountain Station, and I am the guard captain of the station.

Although our inn charges a fee, it is not for the purpose of profit. The fee is very low. It is not considered a business at all. It is just to provide convenience for business travelers.

After passing this station, you will enter the Liangzhai Mountain area, where the two mountain villages of Black Dragon and Red Tiger control a thousand-mile radius.

Liangzhai Mountain is actually a group of mountains, commonly known as Shiwandashan. The two villages of Black Dragon and Red Tiger are independent kings and are not under the jurisdiction of Nanjun.

Nanjun has reached an agreement with Heilong and Chihu Villages. As long as passing business travelers pay tolls, they can pass freely and will not be harassed.

Our Liangzhai Mountain Station is responsible for collecting tolls and issuing pass certificates, and Liangzhai will not be in trouble for anyone holding a pass."

"Well, if you become a king and don't fall under the jurisdiction of the court, then you are just a bandit, and the court actually helps collect money?"

Ye Feng was a little dumbfounded. What kind of relationship does this have? It's too weird.

"Haha, fellow Taoist obviously doesn't understand the situation, so you can't talk nonsense.

The two villages are not enemies of Nandu, and the tolls collected are not much, and most of them entrust us to purchase some daily necessities, which is not excessive.

The people of the two villages are the original residents, with a population of millions. Every time there is an insect famine, the two villages will also retreat to Nandu. Two of the inner cities are guarded by the two villages, so they and Nandu are actually closely related.

.

Those living supplies are actually prepared for each fight against insect famine, so Nandu not only does not object, but supports it."

"interesting!"

Ye Feng said with some admiration.

This is obviously something that King Nanjun did deliberately. There are indeed millions of mountain people. As long as they can help when needed, it doesn't matter whether they surrender or not.

"The official road won't open until seven o'clock. It's only six o'clock now. Why don't you go in and rest for a while? It's convenient to get a pass."

After the man finished speaking, he made a gesture inviting Ye Feng into the attic.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for informing me! When you do as the Romans do, you should get a pass."

Ye Feng responded.

Although the man was a sergeant, he was quite kind. It wouldn't be a problem to wait for an hour. He was not in a hurry anyway. He just looked at the reins in his hands and felt troubled for a moment.

He doesn't have any social experience. If he is alone, he can just go into the store. But what should Piaoying do now? There is no racecourse here.

"Haha! Don't worry, fellow Taoist. This is just a restaurant, and there are servants on duty all night long. Just leave your mount to the servants to take care of it."

The man laughed and said.

He was originally a young man, and he had already seen that Ye Feng was a young boy. He was probably the big family who asked him to come out for training.

Now is a special period. The insect famine is about to come. All personnel will evacuate to Nandu to fight together. However, Nandu also needs to make corresponding arrangements. The evacuated personnel must proceed step by step.

The total population of Nanjun is tens of millions, and the number of permanent residents in Nandu is less than ten million. The entry of a large number of people needs to be adjusted, otherwise it will inevitably cause chaos.

The consumption of tens of millions of people must be staggering. If there are insufficient preparations for food and other daily necessities, let alone fighting against insect famine, we will be in chaos first.

Therefore, during this period, a large amount of daily necessities began to be transported to Nandu, and personnel were not allowed to move around without permission.

In order to unify the dispatch, the county government sent a large number of officials to coordinate the dispatch, so that the whole process would not be chaotic.

In fact, this is also the reason why the officialdom is deserted now. Except for normal traders, the only people who can go out and walk around are not ordinary people.

In his opinion, Ye Feng must be a member of a big family, so he was allowed to go to Nandu to train on his own, so that he would be able to deal with the insect famine more calmly in the near future.

"Haha, thank you fellow Taoist for your advice!"

Ye Feng hugged his fists and smiled awkwardly.

"Since it's a restaurant, it's not dark yet, and there's nothing to do. Why don't fellow Taoists have a few drinks together to kill this boring time."

Ye Feng handed the reins to the young man who came out after hearing the sound, laughed and invited.

"Haha! Being respectful is worse than obeying orders. I really like this drink. The Longhu Shao here is absolutely good wine. It is brewed with mountain spring water in Liangzhai Mountain. It is just expensive. I am afraid that Taoist friends will spend a lot of money."

"Haha, I have to try it then."

It has been a year since I arrived here, and Ye Feng finally understands that people here are basically good at wine. Once a good wine is opened, it will be easy to discuss.

The man called himself Chen Hu and left the ordering to him. Ye Feng just took out a source crystal and threw it on the table, not bothering with the rest.

Ye Feng was a low-key person. The void bag was not tied directly to his waist like others, but was placed in his pocket, so Chen Hu had not seen it before.

Now taking out the source crystal, Chen Hu, who had been paying attention to it, naturally discovered it and couldn't help but secretly feel happy.

Just kidding, can such a young Qi Condensation Master have a simple family background?

This guy is an absolute human being. He knows that there are things that he sees through but doesn’t reveal. He just pretends not to know and orders delicious food and wine.

Ye Feng chuckled and had a high opinion of Chen Hu. It was fun to deal with smart people, otherwise it would be boring for him to say that he could not stand up to his seniors.
