Chapter 617, Observing the sentiments of the people

"Sir, are you alright?"

"My lord, are you alright?"

As soon as Xu Feng landed, everyone surrounded him worriedly, fearing that Xu Feng might make a mistake.

Xu Feng smiled slightly, and waved at everyone, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"My lord?" Old man Deng, the head of Sanjiang Village, couldn't help being taken aback, and hurried forward a few steps, "May I ask who this general is?"

"I said old man, don't you see the big characters on the flag? This is my master, King Yi." Zhang Fei pointed to the flagpole behind him and smiled at Old Man Deng.

"Ah? It turned out to be Lord Yi. The little old man is really guilty. I didn't know that King Yi was coming. I hope that King Yi will not blame you for being rude." After saying that, old man Deng knelt down to Xu Feng, and the village followed him. The common people watching the bustle also knelt down by the roadside, shouting for the king of righteousness.

"Please get up quickly." Xu Feng hurriedly stepped forward to help old man Deng up, and Guo Jia and others also helped the rest of the people up.

"Hei Wa, Lord Yi, in order to save you, he didn't hesitate to dive into the water and take risks, but why not come here and kowtow to your benefactor." Seeing that Hei Wa was still stupidly standing aside, Old Man Deng gave the little guy a hard look and scolded him.

Hei Wa is still young, where has he seen such a scene, let alone understand what a king of righteousness is?For a moment, he froze in place, not daring to step forward.

Xu Feng waved his hand, just as Huang Wudie took a brocade robe from the cabin, Xu Feng took it and put it on Hei Wa's body directly.

"King Yi, be careful of the wind and cold. If you don't mind, please sit at the little old man's house."

"Okay, I just went to the old man's house to ask for some water." Xu Feng laughed and stepped forward, regardless of the water stains all over his body, he helped the old man Deng and walked towards the village together.

The people in the village looked at Xu Feng and the others in a daze, and they were all dumbfounded. In the past so many years in Sanjiang Village, let alone King Yi, not even a county lieutenant has visited once. The biggest person ever was the village chief, old man Deng, let alone King Yi.

These villagers are all wearing coarse linen clothes, the clothes on their bodies are very old, and some are full of holes. They are all yellow and thin, and they are as skinny as a stick. Even the children, most of them have bare feet and wear shoes on their faces. Sorry.

Along the way, while asking old man Deng about his health, he chatted about household chores. The more he understood, the more Xu Feng felt heartbroken, and gradually his brows became more and more tightly frowned.

For example, that Heiwa, whose father died on the battlefield, orphans and widows, who were helpless and helpless, fled all the way to Sanjiang Village. , the income is very little, the life of the mother and the wife is not easy, and they can barely make ends meet.

Most of the villagers here have fled from various places. Although they are close to mountains and rivers, there are fish in the water and animals in the mountains, most of them are orphans and widows, weak and weak, and the fishing gear is relatively old and simple, and there are not many fish caught. There is no place to sell them if they are caught too much, and they will spoil after a long time. The distance from the town is relatively far, and the fish caught before they are transported to the city will all stink.

After walking along the bank for a short distance, I saw a village located under the hillside. Dozens of small and dilapidated thatched huts came into everyone's eyes. Almost, as Old Man Deng walked into Old Man Deng's courtyard, the so-called courtyard was only slightly blocked by a few wooden fences.

There was nothing in the courtyard except for some old fishing nets. Just as he was about to step into the house, the old man Deng stopped Xu Feng with a busy smile, "King Yi wait a moment, the room is too dark. When I enter the house, light the candles and candles." The king please come in again."

"Do you still need to light candles in broad daylight?" Many people were very puzzled.

Old man Deng smiled wryly, without saying much, he stepped into the room first, after a while, there was light in the room, and everyone followed Xu Feng into the room.

Although there are candles to illuminate the light, the light is still very dim, and the surrounding area is so tightly sealed that the light cannot penetrate at all. Lu Su was taken aback, "Old man, why don't you make the hall brighter, so that you don't need to spend money on lighting candles in broad daylight?" Are you tired? There is a beautiful view of the Yangtze River in front of this place, surrounded by mountains on the back, a rare good place for self-cultivation, I am afraid that the gods will be reluctant to leave when they come, but you are lucky, but you have sealed the house so tightly."

Guo Jia and the others nodded frequently after hearing this, and even Zhuge Liang, who followed him, was puzzled for a while.

There are three or two thatched cottages, where you can indulge in the mountains and rivers, leisurely and elegant, and you can compete with the gods at leisure, how comfortable it is, this old man really doesn't know how to relax.

"What you said is really good." Old man Deng smiled wryly, and quickly explained, "But here in the south of the Yangtze River, there is a lot of wind and rain, and the animals in the mountains are also extremely fierce. As you said, the house is brighter, and there is light. If it can't be stopped, it will attract wild beasts, if that's the case, I'm afraid Sanjiang Village will no longer exist."

Xu Feng sighed in his heart. Lu Su and the others were used to having no worries about food and clothing. For them, finding a quiet mountain forest and a few huts for self-cultivation and self-cultivation was extremely comfortable.

And the consideration of these villagers is indeed the most practical issue. The two kinds of people have different starting points and naturally have different views.

What's more, for a person whose livelihood is difficult, how can you let him enjoy the leisure time?
Looking around, although the old man Deng is the village head, his family is very poor, and there is still a seriously ill old lady lying in the room, Xu Feng hurriedly asked Huo Fenghuang to treat the old man.

There were too many people in the room, and it seemed crowded when they stayed in the room. After staying for a while, Xu Feng came out, "Old man Deng, I want to go to the nearby villager's house to have a look. I will spend the night here tonight, and I will bother you later." I hope the old man can understand a thing or two."

"Sanba, distribute the things you brought to the people of each household." Following Xu Feng's order, [-] people distributed the rice, noodles, money, vegetables, meat and other things used for the New Year one by one. To the villagers of Sanjiang Village.

"King Yi is going to celebrate the festival in my Sanjiang Village?" Looking at the mountains of things piled up in the house, the corners of Old Man Deng's eyes were wet, and he was moved when he saw Xu Feng walking away.

"Mother, I'm back." Hei Wa walked into her small courtyard with an empty fish basket and shouted into the house.

"It's Hei Wa, just come back, come into the house quickly, mother will cook for you, and give me the fish basket."

"Mother... today... I didn't catch a single fish." Hei Wa blushed and gritted her teeth.

"Forget it, you are still young, mother went to the mountains to pick a lot of wild vegetables yesterday, we mother and I will make it at once." Hei Wa's mother came out of the house and glanced at Hei Wa. , and suddenly screamed, "Hei Wa, did you bring the clothes on your body?"

"Can I come in?" Xu Feng walked to the gate of Heiwa's small courtyard and shouted politely inside.

"Mother, he gave me this clothes." Heiwa said, and touched Xu Feng outside the door with her little finger.
