What use do I want in this troubled world

Chapter 163 Who to Report

Needle drop can be heard inside the felt tent.

Ji Liang's palms were slightly sweaty.

Xu Wenfeng was silent for a moment and said, "Tell me, who do you want to report?"

Ji Liang breathed slowly and calmly, avoiding excessive fluctuations in his speech speed:
"Feng Guangyao. This person often calls friends and gathers people to gamble in the Nanshan forest. As far as Xiaomin knows, he has a wife and children in his family, but he doesn't know anything about a widow.

The little folk heard that he used the name of a girl to bully the new refugees, and secretly collected a small amount of protection money. "

After he finished speaking, he held his breath, calmly glanced at Xu Wenfeng from the corner of his eye, and secretly tried to figure out what she was thinking.

This is a risky gamble.
After Xu Wenfeng heard it, his expression was unclear: "From your words, it's not difficult to hear that you are known to him."

Just now I was wondering if it could be someone from the eldest and third family of the Xu family who was domineering outside, but now I suddenly realized that it was the prodigal son of the Feng family.
Xu Wenfeng was so busy that he almost forgot that there was a rat droppings hidden in his rice jar.

No wonder no one came to her to complain.

The Feng family and the Xu family are related by marriage, so long as Feng Guangyao didn't do some heinous things and didn't make too much trouble,

Even if the big guys don't treat Xu Lanying a little bit less, because of Xu Wenfeng's relationship, they will turn a blind eye to him and be tolerant to him.

The so-called human society is like this.

Besides, no one who came out of Yantan Village knew that he was originally virtuous, and everyone was not surprised by his bad habits.

So no one bothered her with this matter.

Ji Liang said: "I know, this person is the eldest brother-in-law of the girl."

Xu Wenfeng said in confusion: Since you are aware of my relationship with him, are you not afraid that I will cover him up and make trouble for you in the future?After all, family ugliness cannot be exposed. "

Ji Liang raised his head boldly, looked straight at her and said: "Everyone in Oasis praises you very much, they love and respect you."

Xu Wenfeng became a little interested: "What did you do before?"

This sudden jump to an irrelevant topic made Ji Liang stunned.

Immediately, he said calmly, "Xiaomin has been a Ye Xianglang, a bag bearer at the pier, a corpse-carrying craftsman, and a color-tied craftsman, as long as he does the work for Tongzi."

The first few jobs are lowly, while the latter two are unlucky and unlucky. They are both very disgusting and taboo occupations.

Xu Wenfeng was a little surprised that a person who seemed to be weak in culture actually did the business of carrying corpses.

She asked with great interest: "Tell me about carrying the corpse. Do you want to wear a straw hat, wrap your body in a big black robe, and ring the bell while carrying the corpse?"

"I heard that the corpse is to be divided, coated with potion, fixed with a bamboo pole, and dragged away like a marionette. Is that true?"

Seeing that she was curious but not contemptuous, Ji Liang couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and even forgot why the topic jumped thousands of miles away.

He talked eloquently: "No, what the girl said is the body-busting person in southern Hunan, but the body-carrying person is different."

The so-called corpse-carrying means that ancient people were more superstitious. They believed that if people who died in other places could not return to their hometown for burial, they would not be able to be reincarnated and would become lonely ghosts, so corpse-carrying craftsmen appeared.

The job of the mortician is to carry people who died in other places back to their hometowns for safety.

Rest during the day, travel at night, and stay in contact with corpses for a long time. Therefore, according to legend, people with strong horoscopes and strong yang energy are required to take up the job, and they cannot continue to engage in this job.

After finally clarifying the difference between the corpse-rider and the corpse-carryer, and facing Xu Wenfeng's strange questions in the middle, Ji Liang's mouth became dry for a while.

Looking at the second girl who listened with gusto, he thought in a daze,
Hey, he seems to be here to inform you, right?
How did you become a storyteller?
"Oh, that's how it is." Xu Wenfeng looked suddenly enlightened, and ordered Qiu Ling to bring him a cup of tea to moisten his throat, and the topic jumped again: "How many people are there in your family?"

Seemingly disorganized, in fact, he has been silently scoring in the bottom of his heart through his words and deeds.

This person is courageous and insightful, good at observing words and expressions, watching food and eating, and good at drilling. Once he catches an opportunity, he will make a decisive move and climb up regardless of the cost.

But she didn't rush forward, she first observed customs and customs when she landed in the country, inquired and analyzed her temperament and style before coming prepared.

Ji Liang seemed to be used to the girl's questioning style of thumping her stick.
He carefully held the base of the teacup: "Unfortunately, Xiaomin's parents died early, and he was lucky to escape with two younger sisters and a younger brother. Fortunately, thanks to the girl, our family has a place to live and a way out."

Xu Wenfeng added two more comments to him. There is no doubt that he has some real skills to drag his young sisters and brothers here in the chaotic world.

And pay attention to family affection.

He has done corpse-carrying business again, needless to say his courage.

suitable, very suitable
Xu Wenfeng suddenly thought of where he was going to be placed, and wanted to test his character, so he just said: "I will handle the report as appropriate."

"Qiu Ling, take him down to receive the reward." He dismissed him hastily.

"Thank you, Second Miss, for the reward." Ji Liang cupped his hands in the salute, and retreated out.

I can't hide my disappointment, he didn't come here for the bounty
Ji Liang carried five catties of grain and one catty of jerky, and walked back with a slightly heavy footstep.

He walked slowly, going through the conversation with the girl over and over again in his mind.

Suddenly understood, the girl asked so many questions here and there, not out of curiosity, she was clearly getting to know him from the side.

Does that mean the girl wants to use him?
I have only been here for ten days, even if the girl wants to use him, she has to observe for a while.

After a sudden enlightenment, Ji Liang's footsteps became brisk.

After Ji Liang left, Xu Wenfeng tapped the table for a while, thinking about how to deal with Feng Guangyao, which would not hurt the elder sister's face, but also serve as a strong warning.

Kind of tricky.

In the evening, Qiu Ling went to call Xu Lanying to eat dinner in the girl's tent, Xu Lanying was quite surprised.

The second sister was so busy that she settled for food, lodging and office work in her own felt tent.

What kind of wind is blowing today?

The two sisters sat down at the dinner table, Xu Wenfeng told her about Feng Guangyao's matter like seasoning the meal.

Xu Lanying was so angry that she almost dropped the bowl. She had long since given up any hope for Feng Guangyao. The point of her anger was that the second sister and the Xu family were being harmed by Wang Bazizi's actions.

Black sheep!

After arriving at the oasis, the two elders were willing to go to work to support the prodigal son, and Xu Lanying was too lazy to ask him because he was so used to loafing around outside every day.

She was in charge of logistics and had to take care of the two children. Xu Lanying couldn't remember how long it had been since she had seen Feng Guangyao, but when he was at Liniang's place, she hooked up with another widow.

That's right, with his status, when he meets someone with a heart, he has to jump on it like a fly seeing shit.

It's okay to have a loss of personal morality, but dare to gather people to gamble, collect protection fees, and destroy the atmosphere of the oasis!

Well, well, well, such a daring thing. Xu Lanying was also full of anger, wiped her mouth and got up and said, "Second sister, elder sister will explain this to you."
