Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 939
"This is the rule of the barbarians, purely the reason of the barbarians!" Niu Yuxian still couldn't agree with the idea of ​​the Fanxiao Kingdom, until he saw a battle between craftsmen on the side of the road.

The two craftsmen were five feet apart, and each had a six-foot-wide circle under their feet. Standing in the circle, they threw weapons at each other.

A craftsman threw a short knife over, and the short knife pierced the opponent's armor, but it only penetrated more than an inch deep, and failed to hurt the craftsman opposite.

The craftsman on the opposite side threw back a short knife with his backhand. The short knife pierced the armor nearly three inches, and the craftsman who was hit by the knife bled.

It only decides the outcome, not life or death. This is the rule of the fang blood fight. The craftsman who was hit by the knife may lose on the knife or on the armor. In short, if he loses, he loses. The blacksmith's workshop lost money to the other party.

Niu Yuxian's perception was weak, he looked at the sky, then looked at Xu Zhiqiong in a blink of an eye, he was asking Xu Zhiqiong whether there was a star official to testify about the battle between the craftsmen.

Xu Zhiqiong could clearly feel the star official's gaze, and nodded to Niu Yuxian.

Lin Ruoxue also seemed to see Niu Yuxian's doubts, and explained: "The craftsmen have a very high status in the Fanxiao Kingdom, and every duel between them will be witnessed by the star officials."

Niu Yuxian immediately changed his impression of Fanxiao Kingdom, and he never mentioned the word "barbarian" again along the way.

Yang Wu felt that the fighting between craftsmen was more like barbarians: "Take a guy and openly fight in the street! No one cares about this? What is this called?
If it is said that they carry a saber or saber for self-defense, that's all, no one cares about their weapons? "

Lin Ruoxue said: "The weapons produced by regular workshops are all marked, as long as the weapons and armor bought from regular workshops, they will not violate the laws of Fanxiao Kingdom."

Niu Yuxian nodded and said, "I think this rule is good."

"What is good?" Yang Wu repeatedly shook his head and said, "In the final analysis, the entire Brahma Heaven Kingdom is dominated by warriors. Whether warriors or craftsmen, it is the means of warriors to compete for victory. From top to bottom, the actions of literati cannot be seen. It's the method of warriors, just a group of ignorant and brutal people who only care about killing!"

Lin Ruoxue sighed: "Why do you think literati can do something? And why do you think warriors are brutal? Warriors are promoted to high ranks, earning their own identity and status. Apart from bravery, don't they rely on wisdom?"

Chu He nodded repeatedly and said: "I like to hear these words. Warriors have real wisdom, and they are definitely no worse than those literati.
This girl, although I can't see your face, but your voice is so nice, I haven't asked your name yet. "

Lin Ruoxue didn't answer, but heard Lebida say: "We have literati here, and literati have debates."

He led the crowd to find a special academy, and two literati drew a circle, enshrining the White Tiger God, and they were having a debate in the circle.

No matter what kind of duel, Fanxiao people like to draw circles.

The point is that this is a debate, is it appropriate to worship the White Tiger God?

Suitable!
This controversy is also watched by Xingjun.

"A man's situation as a prophet, let's talk right and wrong. Take military matters as an example. Fan Xiao defeated the enemy army. For the enemy army, this is bad news. For our army, it is good news. The situation is different, and it is not natural. different."

A man from Eastern Fanxiao, wearing a Confucian robe, made his point.

His point of view is that positions determine right and wrong.

On the opposite side is a man from West Fanxiao, wearing a scholar's robe unique to the Fanxiao Kingdom. His point of view is just the opposite.

"Whether it's bad news or good news, the facts remain the same after all. This battle was fought and Fan Xiao won. No matter what your situation is, this battle cannot be changed, so right and wrong have nothing to do with the situation."

Although he is a decent native of Xifanxiao, this man speaks fluent Daxuan official dialect, which is regarded as the lingua franca in Iron Leopard County.

The Confucianist Dong Fanxiao said again: "Water in a long-drought land is for rain, and in a flooded land is for disaster. Therefore, there must be a situation first, and then there will be right and wrong."

Xi Fanxiao scholar said again: "If a person has no water to drink, he will definitely die. No matter what the situation is, right and wrong will always remain the same. Don't talk about your fallacies."

This sentence is in place, the face of Dong Fanxiao Confucianism is pale with anger.

But he soon found a new argument:

"True God Baihu testifies, I'll set you up!"

Confucian Xi Fanxiao's cheeks trembled for a while, and he turned to shout: "True God Baihu bears witness, I'm going to kill you!"

The two scuffled together.

"Trap! Trick you to death!"

"Tricks! Tricks..."

In the end, the Eastern Fanxiao Confucianists pulled off the beards of the Western Fanxiao scholars, the Western Fanxiao scholars conceded, and the Eastern Fanxiao Confucianists won the debate.

Xu Zhiqiong heard the testimony from the star official: "Make the count!"

Yang Wu took a deep breath and said, "Is this a debate?"

Lebida didn't understand: "Why don't we count the war first?"

While speaking, everyone came to Lebida's house. His family opened a grocery store. All his so-called family business refers to this grocery store.

Xu Zhiqiong looked at Luo Guanghan: "Don't tell me you are a respectable person in Fanxiao Kingdom?"

Luo Guanghan lowered his head and said: "I used to be regarded as having a head and a face..."

Lebida shouted: "Shut up! The reputation of the family has been ruined by you."

It is unrealistic and not decent for a Taoist cultivator of the sixth rank to open a grocery store.

Lebida explained: "The family business used to be very rich, but Luo Guanghan violated the law. In order to help him pay for the money, I lost all the family business, and only this shop is left."

Xu Zhiqiong laughed and said, "So, I'm late. What law did Luo Guanghan break?"

"He fights privately."

Yang Wu was stunned and said, "Fighting? You can fight anytime and anywhere, is this still a violation of the law?"

Lebida frowned and said, "Blood fighting and fighting are two different things."

Luo Guanghan and a boy fell in love with a girl at the same time, and the innocent girl asked the two boys to have a bloody fight, and whoever won would fight with him.

Luo Guanghan was defeated in the arena, feeling unwilling, he took his weapon and sneaked up on the boy at night, wounding him.

Fights other than fang blood fights are strictly prohibited in Fanxiao Kingdom. Luo Guanghan not only lost his own family property, but also lost his brother's family property, and was also expelled out of the city by the Iron Leopard Clan , So he became a grassroots bandit.

According to the law, the deportees could not stay in the city for more than one day, and they had to leave the city before dark.

But now whether he can go out of the city depends on Chu He's will. In the bloody battle with fangs, Lebida lost, and Luo Guanghan's life is now at Chu He's disposal.

Chu He looked at Xu Zhiqiong, and Xu Zhiqiong looked at Yang Wu.

Yang Wu understood, patted Luo Guanghan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's get out of the city."

Luo Guanghan was taken aback, he didn't expect this group of people to let him go.

He hastily thanked him, took the two horse bandits and ran away. Lebida looked at his back and sighed.

Lebida's wife cried: "Sooner or later we will be dragged down to death by your brother!"

Lebida frowned and said, "Don't talk too much, pack up your things quickly, we should go."

The whole family depended on this grocery store for their lives, and Lebida himself was very reluctant.

But it's useless to be reluctant. If you don't fulfill the promise of the blood fight, you will be punished by Xingjun, and he will not be forgiven by law.

Xu Zhiqiong discussed with Lebida, and the shop was left for him, but Luo Guanghan and the two horse bandits left, and Xu Zhiqiong lacked a servant to salute.

Lebida is willing to serve Xu Zhiqiong as a servant, provided that he does not leave the Fanxiao Kingdom, and the time does not exceed one year.

After two clicks, Xu Zhiqiong looked at the grocery store.

This shop is in the same direction as he perceives, and there is a familiar atmosphere here.

Entering the grocery store, Xu Zhiqiong asked Lebida: "Before, have you ever seen an elder Xuanren with a full forehead, deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, and thin lips, and his speech was a bit domineering."

Xu Zhiqiong is describing the characteristics of Liang Jixiong.

He had indeed been to this grocery store through Liang Jixiong, and he could smell Liang Jixiong's breath, even though it was a few months ago, even the slightest breath could not escape the star official's nose.

Lebida really understood Xu Zhiqiong's description, because there was a guest who was too similar to Xu Zhiqiong's description.

"The customer was very impatient, and he couldn't bear to ask more questions. He came here to buy some groceries such as brushing teeth, green salt, two pairs of shoes, and a whole set of clothes.
The money is enough, but I am dissatisfied with the clothes and dislike them as ugly.

I said that to buy clothes, you have to go to a cloth store to buy good ones. I only have this kind of goods in my grocery store.
After I said these two sentences, he became annoyed and scolded me severely. I had no choice but to go to another shop to help him buy clothes. "

According to Lebida's description, Xu Zhiqiong concluded that this was the second brother.

Brother, where are you going next?
Standing in the grocery store, Xu Zhiqiong used the power of imagery to collect the remaining aura, and continued to track Liang Jixiong's whereabouts.

Luo Guanghan and the two horse bandits came outside the city, panting for a long time, only then did they know the joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe.

This life is saved!

Luo Guanghan was expelled from Iron Leopard County, relying on his martial arts skills, he soon became the second master in Song Dacai's horse bandit den.

He is a horse bandit, he has killed many people, he is familiar with the way of horse bandits, there is no reason to spit out the meat in his mouth, and there is no reason to release the person caught in his hand, according to his logic, Xu Zhiqiong There is no possibility of letting him go.

But Xu Zhiqiong let him go.

Luo Guanghan said to the two horse bandits: "First find someone who is alone, grab some money and food, then go back to the camp, pick up the rest of the brothers, and then go...you watch me do it." What?"

The two horse bandits stared at Luo Guanghan's shoulders.

Luo Guanghan turned his face and found a hand protruding from his shoulder, which suddenly grabbed his throat.

Luo Guanghan struggled for a while, then gradually calmed down.

The two horse bandits didn't know what happened. Seeing Luo Guanghan's strange expression, they wanted to run away.

Luo Guanghan stepped forward and grabbed them, and said in a hoarse guttural voice: "Let's go back to the camp and take the brothers with us."

Definitely take it with you.

From the moment they met Xu Zhiqiong, they had no way out.

Yang Wu calculated the number in the city, and even the horse bandits in the camp, there were more than 20 people in total.

They are all made into puppets, which will definitely be useful in the future.

Xu Zhiqiong left Iron Leopard County with everyone, and went to the Cang Owl Division under the guidance of spirituality.
