"It seems that the guest is not a local, right?" said the fellow villager.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "I came from another place and wanted to do business here to investigate the customs of the people. How about it? Can I eat enough now? Can I afford clothes?"

"The middle-aged households with paddy fields now have a full grain warehouse, and fish every meal is served every meal. Every household has meat. We are mountain people, with only mountains, no paddy fields, and no ponds. The blessing of Wenhou and Lord Liu, this year's potatoes, Wenhou rice, sweet potatoes, and Wenhou melons are all very good. They can eat three meals a day, much better than before. But I can't see money. The mountains are remote and no one can collect things. I can barely change my food to wear clothes. The county promotes the family to raise sheep and cattle, but I can't afford it. I can only raise a few chickens and ducks."

"Take it slow, eating a full meal is a big deal, the first step has been solved. Next, it will be easy to do. Only by not being hungry can you find a way."

"Yes, it's a great thing to be able to eat enough. Some people in the village will grow cotton. Next year, my family will try to grow a little, and then I can make cotton coats." The old farmer said happily.

As Liu Junjun said, the question of eating and having enough food is basically solved. Dressing is the next part of the matter. Where is it so easy, it is achieved little by little. How many people can do their best to make a living?

After chatting for a few words, the old farmer stood up and said, "I'm going home to dry dried sweet potatoes."

"Okay, fellow countryman, please be busy."

Lu Bu and his group continued to move forward and inspected the customs of the people along the road. After walking for more than ten miles, they saw one or two hundred people crowded in front of the pond on the side of the road from a distance.

Lu Bu sighed: "The land of fish and rice is good. The people have started fishing, so there is a need for fish to eat."

Feng Xiong beside him smiled: "The fish ponds in the village are controlled by the big households, and ordinary people cannot catch them. If what is expected, the patriarch should be soaking pig cages for people who violate the village rules."

Feng Xiong's words woke up Lu Bu, the dreamer, and sometimes he thought too well.

"Who dares to be so bold? The government clearly stipulates that it is strictly forbidden to abuse lynching. Xu Shitou follows me to take a look."

Feng Xiong wanted to come and let Lu Bu stay on the road.

Lu Bu and Xu Shitou got off the horse and walked quickly past it. Feng Xiong guessed it correctly. Two pig cages, one young woman was about 20 years old, and the other was a handsome young man, who was also in his twenties. The two obviously suffered a lot and were in ragged clothes.

The person who organized this matter was an old man with a big belly, who seemed to be in his fifties.

The old man was full of anger and shouted righteously: "Take these two scums who are unfair and unkind in me."

"Yes." After hearing the arrangement, the strong man in the village threw the two into the pond.

I heard the man in the pig cage scolding: "You climbed the ashes and fell down the stove, and you wanted to kill me and silence me when you were afraid that it would spread. You think it's beautiful. Everyone listened, this old guy and his daughter-in-law were in the straw pile."

It came to an abrupt end because a rag was stuffed into his mouth.

When Lu Bu heard that there was a big melon here, it was not as simple as soaking a pig cage.

People are in the pig cage, and after sinking into the pond, they will die, and they have no way to survive.

Although this phenomenon has always existed, the Xuzhou Governor's Office strictly prohibited the patriarch from being abusive to lynching. Just think about it, it is such a terrible thing that a village chief can actually have the power of life and death. He is completely the local emperor.

Suddenly I heard a loud shout: "Slow down."

The fat old man turned around and looked over when he heard the shout, and was angry: "Where did the foreigners come from, and they dare to come to the village to find trouble."

Lu Bu walked over slowly: "Oh, what a great mighty person. Who are you? Why should you cut off other people's life and death?"

"I am the patriarch of the village. I will just say that. Take these two people down."

Immediately, more than a dozen strong men came forward and took sticks to get Lu Bu and the other two.

Xu Shitou smiled and said, "You have to think about it, we are from the government."

The men were stunned and heard the patriarch behind say, "What kind of mansion is his, call me."

What is Lu Bu's identity? He is all the generals.

When Xu Shitou doesn't make much effort, he just acts at this time.

I took the long knife around my waist, but I didn't draw the knife, and I was wearing a cowhide scabbard.

A man hit him with one stick, and Xu Shitou gently dodged, dodged the stick, and fucked him on his chin with one punch, and the man fell down straight.

Another person sneaked into Xu Shitou in the back, but he didn't expect to be hit on the neck by a scabbard and fainted.

Then Xu Shitou kicked over the strong man in front of him with one kick, and then hit the strong man's neck with an elbow.

"I'm against it, I'm against it. Let's go together."

Xu Shitou raised his might and arched left and right, fisted, feet, knees and elbows, and thirty big men could not get close to him.

Lu Bu was quite satisfied with the reading. Xu Shitou had learned the skills of close combat.

A sound of horse hooves sounded, and Feng Xiong and Huaji led more than fifty cavalrymen to come.

Only then did the patriarch of the Land King realize that he had taken it.

"The two people in the water and the patriarch were brought back to the yamen and handed over to the county magistrate Liu for trial."

"yes."

This is the job of the constable, and Lu Bu made a guest appearance temporarily and took the person away.

When he arrived at the yamen, Jung Liu's face looked very awkward.

"These patriarchs, Li Zheng, are all local tyrants. They have said that they are not allowed to abuse lynching, but they just don't listen and it's very difficult to deal with it."

Lu Bu comforted: "These things are always inevitable. Some people always think they are great and deal with them well. It is not just abusing lynching. The man just said that they were retaliated for discovering the scandal of the patriarch."

"Okay, lord, don't worry. I'll try it myself."

In the first trial, there was a big melon. It turned out that the man was a bachelor, and he had no wife in his twenties. The woman was a widow. The two of them had a secret relationship. Due to etiquette, it was not easy for them to get married.

So the two of them lived a secret life, and the villagers knew that they had been in peace.

As a result, one day they discovered the scandal of the patriarch. The patriarch was worried that he would tell the scandal, so he became interested in killing him.

Let’s talk about the affair between the two of them. According to the previous rules, they were all soaked in pig cages. They should be considered as life should not be lost. When they met Lu Bu patrol, they rescued them.

The county magistrate Liu handled it very fairly. These two people were released without acquittal and arranged to be a garrison in Mintun, Guangling City. For example, the two of them, even if the clan leader is gone, they will be discriminated against when they go back.

The patriarch killed innocent people indiscriminately and retaliated against him and sentenced him to a mine to quarret for five years. His body, like him, would probably be gone in less than five years.

"These local tyrants in the village need to be well prepared and establish a long-term publicity method to let the people understand the laws and regulations of Xuzhou. In this way, lynching can be avoided."
