Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 332 Dou Town

...

The Wanmin Umbrella is an umbrella presented by the gentry and the people in the old days to praise the virtues of the local magistrates. This kind of umbrella is different from the oil-paper umbrella used to cover the rain.

Li Mu once watched a TV series called Li Wei as an official, which seemed to mention the Wanmin Umbrella. Because of the Wanmin Umbrella, Li Wei was reused by Emperor Yongzheng because the Wanmin Umbrella represented the will of the people. Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and the power of public opinion cannot be underestimated sometimes.

Of course, sometimes the Wanmin Umbrella does not have as many people as its name, just like the Wanmin Umbrella that Li Mu is holding in his hand at this time, which is made of various fabrics.

This is the first time he has seen the actual Wanmin umbrella in his previous life. Although the silk materials on it are different, there are fine silk and rough linen, but this does not affect Li Mu's excited mood at this time.

This Wanmin umbrella was given to them by the people of Dayu County when they left.

After the plague subsided, and learned that Li Mu and others were about to leave Dayu County and continue their journey, Dr. Ye quietly called people to discuss preparing gifts for them.

The meeting was chaotic, with different opinions, some suggested giving money, and some suggested giving other things, but considering Li Mu's status as a Taoist priest, I don't know who said in the end that they can follow the example of the past and give gifts to parents and officials. The People's Umbrella has been unanimously recognized.

So more than a thousand people in Dayu County went home and tore a piece of their best fabric, and those who could read wrote their surnames on it, and nominated those who could not, and then the county's skillful hand It took a lot of time to sew these silk and satin cloth strips with needles and threads, and I almost missed seeing them off.

For officials, the Wanmin Umbrella is a kind of popular approval, and for practitioners like Li Mu and others, it is a rare encounter.

Attached to it is not only Dayu County's gratitude to them, but also the willingness of everyone in the entire county, so the Wanmin Umbrella does not need them to sacrifice more, it is an amazing magic weapon.

With the blessing of wish power, under the protection of the Wanmin Umbrella, it can isolate the intrusion of spells from the outside world. Another thing is that Li Mu can use his body to go to the underworld without being blocked.

"Don't look, you won't see a flower if you look again!"

Zhang Jicheng's words awakened Li Mu who was immersed in the joy of getting the Wanmin Umbrella. Li Mu smiled awkwardly and carefully put away the Wanmin Umbrella. He must show it off to his master and Qiu Sheng when he returned.

Of course, Li Mu is not the only one who owns the Wanmin Umbrella, and people in Dayu County are not so careless as to just give away one.

As for the money, Li Mu and the others also took some. These were forced by the people of Dayu County. After all, they were willing to take some money as money. After all, they have been out for so long, and their money is almost used up. .

"Senior, how do we go next?"

After picking up his mood, Li Mu spread out a map and asked Zhang Jiji. They have just entered the border of Ganzhou, and they are still more than 400 kilometers away from Longhu Mountain, which is about [-] miles. With their foot strength, they can walk non-stop. It also takes four to five days.

Li Mu has never been to Longhu Mountain no matter in his previous life or present life, so this time it coincided with his meeting, he thought it would be good to take a look at the past, so he decided to temporarily change the route, otherwise, he should have They separated from Zhang Chengli.

Zhang Chengji took over the map and looked it over. There was a place called Zhangdou Town, twenty miles away from them, so he proposed to rest here. There was no village between Dayu County and Zhangdou County. Because of the plague, this road was closed. There is no one coming and going, so there are only a few of them on this road at present.

The [-]-mile road is actually only ten kilometers, and it only took Li Mu and the others half a day to walk unhurriedly. It was also because the road was curved and steep, and they walked faster on flat ground.

Around three o'clock in the afternoon at Shen time, the group of them could see the outline of Zhangdou Town and the scattered white spots at the entrance of the town from a distance.

However, when they got closer, they realized that the white spots turned out to be some paper money (travel money) scattered on the ground.

"Hey, is there someone going to a funeral in this town today?"

The five people came to the entrance of the town, and there was a stone tablet on the side of the mountain with the word Zhang Dou engraved, but looking around, there was no one in the whole street, only a piece of paper money occasionally blown by the wind.

"Brother, why didn't you see anyone?"

The empty streets, the closed shop doors on both sides, and the paper money being blown up by the wind from time to time create a weird and infiltrating atmosphere unconsciously. The little boy couldn't help but hugged Xiaobao tightly and moved closer to Ah Xing and asked .

Facing Xiaotong's question, Ah Xing couldn't answer and had to look back at Zhang Jicheng and Li Mu.

"Go ahead and see what's going on."

At first, Zhang Jicheng thought that Zhangdou Town was affected by the plague in Dayu County, but after looking at it, he found no plague, so he dispelled his doubts. In this case, it is useless for them to think here, it is better to go in and see Look, maybe you can meet someone in the town and ask about the situation.

swish... swish...

Li Mu, who was walking in the middle of the road, frowned, scanned the houses and shops on both sides with his peripheral vision, and then exchanged a secret look with Zhang Chengji.

There are people in the houses on either side!
This is the answer from the exchange of eyes between the two. After they entered the town, Li Mu noticed that many eyes were focused on them. Although these eyes had a sense of scrutiny and guard, fortunately, there was no hostility , just don't know why they are so careful.

Is there another horse bandit here?

Li Mu speculated secretly in his heart, because this scene was very similar to his feeling in Qingshan Town, that's why he was so suspicious.

"Li Mu, a disciple of the Xiamao Mountain Sect, traveled through this place and wanted to take a rest in this expensive place. Please come out and see me."

Li Mu and the others walked a certain distance, but they didn't see anyone from the rooms on both sides coming out, so they clapped their hands and reported their origins to both sides.

It's just that after he finished speaking, apart from some commotion, the two sides quickly calmed down again.

Therefore, the doubts in Li Mu's eyes are even more serious. They look at me and I look at you, and they also have some headaches. Now Shen Shi, it will be dark in another hour. If the people here don't accept them, they will have to live on the streets .

Although they knew that there were people on both sides, they didn't want to force their way. After all, they didn't know what happened. If unnecessary troubles were caused, it would be difficult to deal with them.

"A Xing, come here."

After being silent for a while, Zhang Jicheng took out a pipe and smoked a few puffs, and then asked Ah Xing to report to the house.

"I??"

"Yes, go!"

When Ah Xing heard that he wanted to go by himself, he lost all confidence, because with Li Mu in front of him, he no longer had any hope.

But Li Mu's eyes lit up when he heard it. Yes, although Maoshan is said to be one of the three major mountains, this is the territory of Longhu Mountain after all, and it may be useful to report the name of Longhu Mountain.

"Ahem, folks, folks, uh, my younger brother is a disciple of Longhu Mountain, passing by here, I want to stay overnight, please make it easy..."
