69 People from Chicken Coop Village
Although the chicken coop and Keelung, although the words are different, the pronunciation is the same, and Li Tianyang can't help but suspect that this chicken coop is the same place as the Keelung in later generations.
Although there are doubts in his heart, Li Tianyang was just a mortal in his previous life, so he has never even traveled to the great land of China, and where has he ever been to the small land of Taiwan, but in his previous life, he has heard more or less of the three famous cities of Taipei, Kaohsiung and Keelung.
Because of the name of the place, Li Tianyang was very fond of this place called the chicken coop, so he took a strong man off the boat and docked on the shore, ready to inspect the surrounding terrain.
It's just that what Li Tianyang didn't expect was that in this chicken coop, there were already people who had already settled here, and when he heard that the Shark was getting closer, someone roared to the village, leading the villagers to guard against Li Tianyang and their uninvited guests.
When Li Tianyang and his group of dozens of people landed on the shore, an old man who was dying, with the support of a child, opened the wooden gate of the village, staggered out, and walked to Li Tianyang and them, who were not good people.
"The noble man is polite, I don't know why he came?" The old man came to Li Tianyang and them, first made a gesture, and then asked with a frightened face.
"The old man is polite!" Although Li Tianyang did not despise others, but his heart was not a nonsense, no scruples, where did he dare to accept the gift of the old man, and hurriedly returned the salute: "I waited for the ship to pass by here, and I felt that the terrain here was strange, so I docked here and wanted to go ashore to swim, but it frightened the people of the old man's village." ”
Behind him, Wu Jie and other camp members who had always been influenced by him also returned the salute, but the pirates of Lu Yu's generation had no scruples, and they were indifferent to the old man's actions, but when they saw Li Tianyang, Wu Jie and others return the salute, they were not easy to take the big one, and they returned the salute unevenly and hesitantly.
Seeing that everyone was polite, the old man's face suddenly relaxed, and he became more polite: "In the land of poor mountains and bad waters, where does there be any peculiar landform, but it is rare for distinguished guests to come to the door, you might as well enter the village and drink a glass of wine!" ”
"Thank you!" Li Tianyang also wanted to investigate, so he didn't refuse, and readily agreed.
It is said to be a village, but in fact, the people are not vigorous, and when you enter the village, you can see the whole village. More than a dozen families are scattered behind this wooden wall, and the occasional sound of chickens and dogs sounding, which makes the village even more depressed.
I can't complain that the old man in this village dared to be so generous and introduced Li Tianyang and these people into the village, and from the contemptuous eyes of these pirates like Lu Yu, it can be seen that even if this village wants to resist and prevent Li Tianyang from going ashore to investigate, it is only a mantis arm blocking the car, to no avail. On the contrary, it is better to be like now, and generously welcome Li Tianyang and them into the door and greet them, which makes them uncomfortable.
Li Tianyang was observing the village, and the people in the village were also observing Li Tianyang and his party.
Although the chicken coop is not famous, but it is located in the main road after all, and more importantly, it is a sheltered harbor, every summer and autumn season, the sea hurricane is raging, and occasionally the maritime merchants and pirates who encounter hurricanes dock their ships in the chicken coop harbor to avoid the invasion of hurricanes.
Therefore, although the husband is located in a remote area, he has a lot of knowledge. As soon as he went out, lowered his posture, and bowed to Li Tianyang and them as an old man, but when Li Tianyang gave them a return gift, he had already judged that this group of people who seemed to be well-equipped with swords, guns, bows and crossbows, and had extraordinary momentum might not be strong men on the sea.
After this conclusion, the old man is no longer worried, the island is bitter, and their village is really small, even if there are strong people who come here to fight the autumn wind, they will not get much benefit, and over time, there are few bandits and others who come here to rob, which is also the reason why the old man's village can survive here.
It's just that things are unpredictable, and there are indispensable people among the pirates who can't get by, this generation is cruel and shameless, even they are a poor village like them, and every time they pass, the chicken coop village will always be harassed by these shameless people, and the old man they guard, that is, this generation.
It is said that it is a drink, it is really a veritable wine, the wine they prepared, in addition to some wine taste, it is very dull, but more is the taste of water.
The food on the table is also very light, except for the adjacent sea, there are two sea fish on the table as muddy food, most of the rest are some wild vegetables and fruits and other vegetables, as for the meal, it is a pot of clear porridge, and the food in the porridge is clearly countable.
"Forgive me, the small village is really bitter, and I can't afford to entertain you with any good food, please atone for your sins!" The old man stood aside in fear and said to Li Tianyang and the others.
Li Tianyang frowned, looked at his father-in-law, and saw a few children with greedy faces, secretly looking at the food in the banquet.
"Brother Jie, get on the boat, bring a stone of grain down, prepare some wine and meat, and send it here!" Li Tianyang turned around and said to Wu Jie beside him.
The reason why Li Tianyang frowned was not because he had an opinion about these meals, and he felt humiliated by this village treating them like this, he was just thinking, why did a village that was so poor stay here and struggle?
It's just that now that everyone has a shallow relationship with each other, it's not easy to inquire about this matter, so Li Tianyang just ordered Wu Jie to come down from the food and materials on the ship, and invited the villagers to come back.
"How this makes, how does this make!" The old man thought that Li Tianyang would be angry, but where did he think that Li Tianyang would actually spend his own money and entertain the villagers.
"What's the matter, the boys have just arrived, and there are a lot of disturbances, so they should ask for guilt and invite the elders to take a seat!" Li Tianyang has ulterior motives, it doesn't matter if it's just a meal, but if the old man knows what Li Tianyang has in his heart, I'm afraid he won't dare to eat this meal!
After a while, Wu Jie led someone to hand over a handful of materials to the women in the village, and the women of the village got busy, and the smoke curled in the village, and there was a breath of human spirit.
At the same time, Li Tianyang also invited all the people in the village to come out, and everyone gathered in the open space in the village, and talked with each other while the meal was not ready.
Until this time, Li Tianyang had made the situation of the entire village clear, and no one had noticed it. Including those women who were still cooking, there were only seventy-eight people in the entire village, and there were not as many people as Li Tian raised their Crazy Shark, except for the old and weak, women and children, there were only twenty-nine village men in the prime of life, which was not an obstacle for Li Tian to raise them.
Coupled with such a poor life in the village, Li Tianyang thought to himself, if this place is really suitable for living and farming, it must not be difficult to integrate this group of villagers at that time!
