"Official gentlemen, it's hot today, so take two cold melons to quench your thirst, and these tomatoes, I'll put them in a cloth bag for you."

Seeing that something was wrong with this posture, Hu Liu hurriedly took out two cold melons and presented them to the leading officers and soldiers. As he was talking, Wu Er next to him saw this, picked up the cloth bag, and filled it with all his strength. The tomatoes were delivered to the officials with both hands.

One cold melon sells for tens of taels of silver, two cold melons cost 90 taels, and the bag of tomatoes weighs at least ten kilograms. In fact, the two of them feel very sad, but in the face of these local snakes, They know they have to give it up, otherwise they will lose more.

Looking at the watermelon in front of them and a bulging bag of tomatoes, several officials opened the bag, took out a few tomatoes from it, and started eating in a big way.

After taking one sip, several officials' eyebrows lit up, and then they looked at Wu Er and Hu Liu, who were looking flattering on their faces.

"Oh, this fruit is really good. I heard that your fruit costs several taels of silver per catty, and this cold melon is usually only given as a gift by the royal family of the West Mo Kingdom, so that we nobles of the Dongfeng Kingdom can eat it. You actually come to this Yue Selling in Yangcheng?"

What does it mean?Could it be said that they are the workmen of Ximo Kingdom?

Listening to Guan Cha's words, Hu Liu's mind was spinning rapidly. Just when Hu Liu was thinking about how to respond to these words, who knew that the few boys behind the first Guan Cha had already finished a tomato and started to eat it. Come up.

"It seems that they are not from our Dongfeng Kingdom, and their accents don't sound like them. Their identities must not be simple. Let's arrest them first."

"Yes, yes, they also said that these cold melons and fruits were grown by themselves. Haha, this cow is too good at boasting. We in Dongfeng, Beiguo and the Lanyue Dynasty can't grow these cold melons. , how can they be able to grow it? It seems that it must be the work of the West Mo Kingdom, who just wants to sneak into our Dongfeng, I don’t know what they want to do."

Several officials kept talking to each other, and the eloquent Hu Liu and Wu Er were immediately speechless and unable to argue.

Seeing the two people's panic, the leading officer's mouth slowly turned into a hint of sarcasm and greed.

If he confiscated so many melons and fruits and resold them, wouldn't he make a fortune?

"No, no, we are not from the Western End Kingdom. We are just the common people at the border of the wilderness. We are from the Eastern Feng Kingdom."

Hu Liu saw this and hurriedly explained.

At this time, even if they say that they are people from the wild land, they cannot do it. After all, if they want to pass the Dongfeng checkpoint, they must have customs clearance documents. Where can they, who are criminals in exile, get the customs clearance documents?
As a last resort, Hu Liu hurriedly made up such an identity.

"People from the border? The border is more than 200 miles away from here. Instead of going to so many counties, you come to Yueyang City so far away to sell? Besides, your accent is nothing like ours in Dongfeng. Stop talking nonsense. No matter what you are If you are not from Dongfeng, take out your household registration and check it to find out whether it is true or false."

Where did they get their household registration?
Hu Liu was even more panicked when he heard what the official said.

It is completely impossible for the dozens of brothers in the distance to come forward at this time. If they go up, they will definitely be interrogated together. But when they see Hu Liu and Wu Er being surrounded by officers and soldiers, they can only do anything in a hurry. No.

"Master Guan, I, we forgot to bring it with us. We were in a hurry when we went out and didn't even think about bringing our household registration. This is also the first time for us to go out so far, and we don't know that we need to check our household registration when we come here. .”

When Hu Liu was in panic, he had no choice but to make up such an excuse.

But obviously, these officials are not that easy to fool at all.

"Boss, I think they are evil. They can even grow these precious cold melons. Why don't they know that they need to bring their household registration when they travel far away? Just arrest them and bring them back for interrogation. That's it."

Upon hearing this, Wu Er's expression changed, and he endured it. Finally, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and hurriedly handed it to the leading official.Hu Liuben was panicking and was at a loss. Unexpectedly, the officer picked up Wu Er's paper and read it. Then he gave it back to Wu Er directly without any reaction on his face.

"and yours."

Wu Erzheng, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, thought they had gotten through this time. Unexpectedly, the officer caught Hu Liu and continued to interrogate him.

"He, he really didn't bring it with him. We are together, Mr. Official Officer."

"Oh, you are together. Who can prove it? Since he has no documents, then arrest him and take the two carts of fruits away."

When the official gave the order, Hu Liu and Wu Er immediately panicked. Even the dozens of brothers not far away stood up in a hurry, just wanting to rush forward.

"and many more!"

Just when the dozen brothers were about to rush forward and fight with the officials, a woman's voice suddenly sounded and scolded the officials!
At the critical moment, Wu Er and Hu Liu's heart was in their throats. Unexpectedly, this familiar voice fell from the sky, shocking the two of them and dozens of brothers in the distance, and they were all dumbfounded.

"Small……"

"What's the difference between you and bandits? If you want to take advantage of others' fruits, just tell them clearly. Why do you need to interrogate them under such a banner?"

Yu Luo's sudden appearance made Hu Liu, who was muttering to himself, feel weak all over.

He knew Yu Luo's identity. He was also an exiled criminal from the Lanyue Dynasty. But if their young lady came out at this time, wouldn't she continue to kill these officials?

After reacting, Hu Liujiang swallowed the word "Miss" that he almost blurted out.

Although he was worried about his young lady, he had no choice but to wait and see what happened.

"Who are you? I advise you to mind your own business."

Looking at the person coming, he was wearing a snow-white dress and a very simple hair accessory. He had an outstanding appearance, but there was nothing valuable about him.

After the leading officer glanced up and down Yu Luo's body, he suddenly lost his temper when he thought back to Yu Luo's rude words just now.

If Yu Luo hadn't said such unpleasant things just now, just because of her rare beauty, the official wouldn't have wanted to embarrass her, but she shouldn't have revealed their dirty thoughts in front of so many people.

"This is my household registration. You can check it yourself."

Yu Luo took out a piece of distressed paper and handed it directly to the chief official. Seeing this, the first official took it away unconvinced and looked at it carefully with a dark face.
