712 Longmen Town, which is not what it used to be

From the smile on the face of the foot merchant, it can be seen that compared with the Luoyang Imperial Capital, the environment here is more suitable for business.

Qin Shubao couldn't help but stop a person and inquired, it turned out that Longmen Town was not like other places, there was no need to pay various fees for doing business, and there were mobile vendor stalls planned when the city was built on the roadside.

"I don't have to pay rent fees to run a business?" It was the first time Qin Shubao had heard of this kind of thing, after all, it would cost to build such a prosperous town, and if the rent was not collected, where would the construction cost come from?

The man saw that he was wearing armor, with a strong and burly figure, and at first glance he was a general with martial arts, and enthusiastically explained his doubts for him: "The military master has just come from other places, no wonder you are strange, speaking of this free stall, there is really a story in it, back then, this Longmen Town was just a small town of a few hundred families, all industries were in ruins, since it became the fief of General Zhen, all the refugees from all over the country were settled in the fief by General Zhen, and everyone who settled down was divided into cultivated land, and no money was taken, and Longmen Town had tens of thousands of households overnight......"

This person talked about the affairs of Longmen Town, such as a few family treasures, with a proud look in his tone: "At that time, others couldn't believe it, how could there be such a good thing in the world, everything was free, just like pie in the sky, and gradually learned that General Zhen is called Gao Ming, he does not charge settling-in fees, does not charge stall operating fees, and does not charge ground rent, the only requirement is to let those of us who settle in Longmen Town jointly undertake the task of urban construction, contribute according to households, distribute tasks, and cooperate in the division of labor. It was built under the guidance of two masters, Yan Lide and Yan Liben, the ministers of craftsmanship. ”

"After it is built, it will be managed and distributed by Steward Du of the General's Mansion. Rental and sale houses, low-to-medium and high-end purchases on demand, can also apply for minimum living conditions. The general's clever tricks, at the beginning, they all applied for the minimum living conditions and received free simple houses, and later, they all settled down and became rich. I can't get used to living in a simple assembly house, so I started to buy a brick house, and many people can't look down on it with low grades. How beautiful is that good house, you have a chance, you really have to go and see the good house in the Zhenbei Hot Spring Resort, don't you want to have a home to sleep peacefully in your life. The family was settled. The heart is also settled, and the work is also very energetic, all for themselves to work, who doesn't want to earn more, that house, just looking at it, I feel that it is worth those silver, and the emperor's relatives and relatives are all bought there...... Master Jun, don't leave yet. I'm not done yet......"

When Qin Shubao heard this, how could he still be willing to listen to him Rory's ramblings. It's itchy and unbearable, I can't go to the hot spring resort in the north of the town immediately, when Li Mi and others came to Longmen Town to inquire about the news, he had military affairs and couldn't come, and when he heard the generals who came back from Longmen Town describe Longmen Town, he already regretted that he didn't come to see it together, and now he is even more impatient to listen to the people in Longmen Town.

Mounted his fast horse and galloped towards the north gate.

From a distance, he saw the city wall, six meters high, two meters thick, the material is not ordinary wall bricks, it looks like it is connected into a whole piece, especially compact, I am afraid that I will use an iron hammer to knock it for three days and three nights, and I may not be able to knock out a hole, he does not know, it is called reinforced concrete.

He is an anxious person, and when he gets up, he doesn't care about anything, he feels that everything is new, and he just wants to take a look at the city and experience the special features of Longmen Town in person.

Although the crowd surged, it did not prevent him from galloping.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the city tower, I heard a loud shout: "What are you doing, dare to be presumptuous in Longmen Town, don't get off the horse quickly!" ”

Qin Shubao grabbed the reins, looked up, and saw a general of the Dark Guard wearing silver armor on the city tower, pointing at him and shouting.

This person was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, quite young, looking only seventeen or eighteen years old, but his eyes were sharp and resolute, and he looked like a young brave general who had experienced a hundred battles.

Uncle Qin Baoden had a hint of temptation, and replied coldly: "If you want Master Jun and me to dismount, I have to see if you have the ability." ”

He didn't recognize the young general on the city tower, but many of the other people who entered and left the city recognized him, and they all whispered: "It's General Pei Xingyan, why is he patrolling today?" This military master is unlucky today, he met this young and vigorous General Pei, didn't there be a gang of thieves who dared to enter the city to rob last time, and was chased by this General Pei for three days and three nights, all the way to the Nanyang realm, and caught those thieves alive. ”

"I see that this military master is strong and strong, and he is in the general's attire, but I am afraid that it will not be so easy to be drunk by General Pei."

"This is Longmen Town, even if Wang Shangshu's people arrive, they have to obediently dismount and enter the city."

Pedestrians on the road stopped one after another, onlookers were discussing, Pei Xingyan on the city tower saw that the people not only did not dismount, but took the initiative to provoke, sneered, took a bow and arrow from the side, pulled half a bow, aimed at the hooves of the horse where Qin Shubao was sitting, and warned again: "I repeat, dismount immediately, otherwise don't blame me for having no eyes in the bow and arrow, and hurt your mount!" ”

Qin Shubao pulled the spear in his hand, held it with his backhand, the head of the spear touched the ground, and laughed: "Why don't we make a bet, if you can shoot my mount or me, I will immediately dismount, and never enter this Longmen Town again, and I will also sit down on my horse, and the silver dragon essence iron spear worth 1,000 taels of silver in my hand will be presented with both hands!" If I die here, I am not good at learning and no one else! ”

Pei Xingyan saw that the person who came was brave and extraordinary, and at a glance he knew that he was a good hand with a hundred battles, and the expression on his face was calm, knowing that Longmen Town was the territory of the Dark Guard, and he dared to provoke it so blatantly, and he already felt a trace of pity for this person in his heart.

If it was someone else, he was afraid that he would already be intimidated by the prestige of the Dark Guard, so he either obediently dismounted and entered the city, or rode away, so that the lord who did not want to die, he saw it for the first time.

I couldn't help but persuade: "This brother, I see that you are also a man, a good martial arts and some are places to use force, why bother fighting here ruthlessly, losing face does not count, and hurting your life if you make trouble, I am good at persuading, just because the laws and regulations in the city are so, not intentionally making trouble, if you get off the horse, how about I personally go down to the city to welcome my brother into the city?" ”

The onlookers were stunned for a while, in their impression, this jade-faced little evil star in the dark guard has never spoken so kindly to a person who violates the law, it has always been official, I thought there was a good show to watch, but I didn't expect that it was this jade-faced little evil star who took the initiative to give the other party a step, and Deng Shi felt a little disappointed.

At this time, Qin Shubao's words once again made the onlookers excited.

"This general is so unhappy, I have said that I have made it so clear, I voluntarily led the general's tricks, whether life or death is borne by me alone, no one else! If the general really doesn't want to hurt my life, it's better to be like this, I'm also a little hungry, so I'll make a three-arrow bet with you, if you can't hurt my horse within three arrows, or myself, the general will please go downstairs, invite me into the city to visit Longmen Town, and then invite me to the most luxurious hot spring resort restaurant to have a good meal, how about it? ”

At this time, the onlookers didn't know that Qin Shubao was deliberately going to compete with Pei Xingyan, and they all shouted hello and applauded, lest it was not big enough.

Pei Xingyan also laughed, knowing that the person who came was not hostile, and said loudly: "I'm not the shameless three indiscriminate, why use three arrows, just one arrow to know the superiority, if you can't shoot the horse's hooves, I will personally go downstairs and welcome you into the city!" ”

……

The crowd of onlookers automatically gave way to an open space of hundreds of square meters, allowing the two generals to display their martial arts to their heart's content.

The war horses under Uncle Qin's throne were restlessly stepping on the horse's hooves, and the moat bridge outside the city was also crowded with people watching, and even the trees on the bank of the river were full of children, watching from afar.

Pei Xingyan took out an arrow, folded the arrow, and put a white cloth cover.

Seeing this, Qin Shubao's face sank, and he shouted, "You are insulting me!" ”

Pei Xingyan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, threw the arrow in his hand, took another intact sharp arrow, and wound it with a bow, but he didn't aim it, turned around, and hid the arrow at his waist.

Qin Shubao's heart sank.

Blind shots.

This kind of archery skill is not something that anyone can master, if you don't trust yourself in vain, or you can be confident.

In the contest between masters and masters, if one side takes a bow and aims, the other party knows where the bow and arrow are going to shoot, nine times out of ten it will be blocked, but blind shooting is different, so that the other party can not figure out the direction of the bow and arrow, so it is impossible to prevent it, if it can match the accuracy and the strength of the bow and crossbow, shoot at high speed, no matter how powerful the master, it may not be able to block.

Qin Shubao has experienced a hundred battles, so far, he has not seen a person who can practice these two things to this extent, he is also a master of arrows, but if it is a blind shot, at most there will be less than thirty percent of the accuracy, if it is a bow and crossbow of more than four stones, the accuracy is basically uncontrollable.

The other party is young, but eighteen or nineteen years old, and he still holds a three-stone bow and arrow, even if he changes himself, it is difficult to have a certain degree of accuracy.

At the same time, he took out his waist knife and held it in the other hand, holding a gun in one hand and a knife in the other, and the person rose into the air and stood on horseback, as if playing acrobatics, steady as Mount Tai, staring at each other.

Although they hadn't started yet, the people around them were already nervous, and it was quiet, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.

Not far from the other side of the moat, Cheng Yanjin and his guards had already seen the scene at the city gate, and everyone looked calm, not at all worried about Qin Shubao's safety.

In fact, they also want to know what is so special about this prestigious Dark Guard, just by the hand of Qin Shubao, to test it, in the future, they will also join the Dark Guard with the two of them, whether they can occupy a place in the Dark Guard, force is the most direct way to vote for the name.
