Chapter 137: one hundred forty

Chapter 137 One hundred and forty: Error
The chariot drove away in the fire cloud, and Tang Luo and his group could finally relax and return to the city.
It's just that because of the fighting, this plain broke and fell apart, so the group planned to go back to the Foxxian Temple and back to Xiling.
Along the way, Xu Laoying and Mi Bai talked happily, like old friends for many years.
In this era of martial arts, Qin, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy are all trails, but martial arts are the highest, but after obtaining a very high quality of life through martial arts, people always pursue some spiritual food, such as Xu Lao Ying, who has loved calligraphy since childhood. Because he feels that both brush and sword are the same.
But that being said, the words written by Xu Laoying are like dogs crawling, which makes him puzzled. He clearly writes every word with heart, and it's still neat to read one. How can an article be written down? But how awkward it looks.
Most of the conversations between the two were around calligraphy, and Tang Luo and a group of children were dizzy.
With a strong pen and display order, Xu Laoying has a feeling of meeting Mi Bai late.
"Listening to Brother Bai's words, it's really breathtaking!" Xu Laoying's peach blossom eyes are full of light, and he has the posture of writing now.
Mi Bai waved his hand and said with a serious face: "This is just some of my experience in calligraphy. As long as Brother Xu doesn't give up calligraphy, the future can be expected."
When it comes to calligraphy, the scholar always reveals a masterful attitude, which is convincing.
"It's a pity that Brother Bai has to rush to Qingshui County, otherwise I must ask Brother Bai for more calligraphy." Xu Laoying's tone was full of pity.
Tang Luo, who followed behind, asked curiously: "Qingshui County? Why go there?"
Mi Bai turned to Tang Luo and said, "I heard that Qingshui County and Ping Ning, I want to take the children there to ask for a living."
When he first saw Tang Luo, his heart was full of resistance, because after all, the Tang family was the culprit who destroyed Mijia Village.
But after getting along, he found that Tang Luo didn't look like a domineering family. Although he spoke a little straighter, he was a good person.
The hatred of the previous generation should not continue to this day, so Mi Bai's attitude towards Tang Luo also returned to plain.
Tang Luo glanced at the pale, turned the child in his arms to a comfortable position, and whispered softly, "Is your decision a bit sloppy?"
As soon as this statement came out, Mi Bai's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked, "Why did you make this statement?"
Xu Laoying was also a little puzzled and asked: "I heard that Qingshui County is also a peaceful county for a long time, and there is a lady like a bodhisattva. Mi Bai wants to go there to ask for a living. Is there anything wrong?"
Tang Luo looked at the simple Xu Laoying and Mi Bai, and said lightly: "The peace of Qingshui County depends on the strength of Xiling, and this small city is most afraid of the force of Xiling, so the county lord of Qingshui County, every year A confession must be made to the Tang family to ensure safety."
As the youngest elder of the Tang family, this is not only a title and honor, but also means that you can attend various important councils of the Tang family and read many secrets.
So he knew the situation in Qingshui County very well.
"Xiling is the most famous city of peace in the west of Longzhou. Every year there are a constant stream of refugees who want to come to Xiling to make a living, but there are no one who comes to Xiling. You think these are natural and man-made disasters. Did the people who escaped die on the road?"
Tang Luo sneered and said softly.
Xu Laoying thought for a while and replied: "Because of the existence of Xiling in the west of Longzhou, there has been no major battle for a long time. Maybe the group of refugees looked at the other cities in peace and stayed in other cities."
At the beginning, Mi Bai was upset when he heard Tang Luo's words, and only felt that the outside world was dangerous, but when he heard Xu Laoying's words, he immediately felt reasonable and echoed: "Yes, maybe the group of refugees have lived in other cities. ."
"Well, it's quite reasonable." Tang Luo nodded and asked, "Why has the population of the cities around Xiling not grown over the years? It is a good thing that the children living on the streets are helped by the wife of a certain clan, but why don't you ask? Ask, where did the parents of those children go?"
Since the emergence of Wancheng Treasure Ship, Tang Mi's clan stopped competing for profit with the commoner tribe, and this is how Xiling is now prosperous. Can be changed to other cities, the powerful family can't wait to turn everything into their own, whether it is resources, exercises, or population. The people enshrined at the top of the pyramid the blood of the people under the tower.
To see whether a city is alive or not, just look at its population growth or stagnation year by year. This simple truth, Tang Luo believes that Xu Laoying can understand that if he is really good for the sake of rice, he should not let him He went to Qingshui County.
"You mean, those refugees were all detained by the towns around Xiling?" Xu Laoying frowned and replied.
Tang Luo nodded, and said lightly: "Cultivate wasteland, build cities and iron, practice martial arts. The population is not enough."
"It seems that Qingshui County is really not a good place." Xu Laoying figured out the joints and said.
Listening to the conversation between Tang Luo and Xu Lao Ying, Mi Bai was very flustered. When he was extremely disappointed in Xiling, Qingshui County was the peaceful holy land in his heart, but now it sounds like a sinister place. In this place, the huge contrast made him couldn't believe it, and he murmured: "No...No."
Tang Luo looked at the pale face of confusion and pain and let out a sigh.
Most of the rumors of peace in the outer city are the news spread by the wind media in the tavern, but they don't want to think that most of this wind media collected money, and the news spread is credible.
If the dark side of Xiling is one, the dark side of the surrounding cities would be ten. In the eyes of the aristocratic families in the outer city, the common people are no different from the slaves. Which family does not raise a thousand or eight hundred common people as subordinates and let the owner of the family. Live and kill.
If Mi Bai really took these children to Qingshui County, he didn't know if there would be anything wrong with this group of children. Mi Bai would definitely have an accident like this.
"Stay in Xiling." Xu Laoying said towards Mi Bai: "Yiqi helped the seniors die, and the Feng family will not come to trouble you again. You can find a place by the city and cultivate a few acres of wasteland. It shouldn’t be a problem to feed these children."
Mi Bai looked up, looked at Xu Lao Ying, smiled bitterly: "Xiling has rules, civilians are not allowed to cultivate wasteland to grow food."
Xu Laoying was shocked, he had never heard such a strange rule, and looked at Tang Luo with questions full of questions.
Tang Luo nodded, indicating that there is indeed such a rule.
Xiling only allows the clan to open up land, and there is a limit on the number of acres, while the common people are not allowed to grow grain, unless they rent land to grow grain from the clan.
"Then how do the people live?" Xu Laoying asked incredulously.
Tang Luo said indifferently: "Stone quarrying, logging, animal husbandry, carrying bags. Xiling is so big and there are so many clans, so you can always find a job."
Xu Laoying couldn't believe that Xiling was actually a place like this. The common people could only buy grain to survive if they couldn't cultivate. If one day no grain, how would these people live?
"That's not right." Xu Laoying looked at Tang Luo and said seriously.
"I know."
"If it's not right, change it."
Tang Luo pondered for a long time without responding.
Correct it if it is wrong? There is nothing wrong with this principle, but if the wrongdoer is too strong to resist.
If he is unwilling to change, who can force him.
