Chapter 420

"What crime did the sinners from Sin City commit?" Li Li Banfeng was very unfamiliar with these terms.

Qiu Qiu Luoye shook his head: "This is hard to explain clearly. In short, this group of people is not kind, and it is said that they are also involved with the Outer Provinces."

"What involvement do they have with the Outer Provinces? Were they sent by the Outer Provinces?" Li Li Banfeng immediately raised his guard. If they were sent by the Outer Provinces, he absolutely could not let them step into his land.

Qiu Qiu Luoye said: "The news released by those Defense Commissioners in the Outer Provinces says that no one is allowed to take in the people who escaped from Sin City. If anyone takes them in, they are going against the Defense Commissioners,

going against them is going against them, and I am not afraid of the Defense Commissioners, but this group of monsters is not easy to deal with, so I must take action a step earlier,

tell those reclaiming the land to be extra careful during these days. Those three-headed monsters are all to the east of the territory; tell our people to go there less."

Qiu Qiu Luoye was about to leave again, but Li Li Banfeng said: "Brother Qiu, let's switch. You stay here and watch the land reclamation, and I will go see what is going on with that group of people.

We are at a critical moment now; as long as they weren't sent by the Outer Provinces or Inner Provinces to cause trouble, we should try our best not to use force."

Qiu Qiu Luoye waved his hand: "I think they are just here to cause trouble! Leaving their lives here is the safest way!"

It was impossible to persuade Qiu Qiu Luoye with ordinary methods, so Li Li Banfeng changed his strategy.

"Brother Qiu, hundreds of people reclaim land every day. How do you expect me to watch them? Can I collect offerings, or can I send people to examine them?"

In fact, Li Li Banfeng could do all these things, but Qiu Qiu Luoye didn't know.

"Brother, I am not making things difficult for you..."

Li Li Banfeng said: "I can't handle the affairs of a Land Deity. I will go talk to the people outside and see what the situation is first. I can still handle this matter clearly."

Qiu Qiu Luoye was worried: "The monsters from Sin City can fight. I'm afraid something will happen to you. Let them send someone to our territory to talk."

"That won't work," Li Li Banfeng was also worried. "It would be fine if one of them came in, but what if a group came in? I will go alone. Even if something happens, I have a way to escape."

"Old Seven, why don't we use a civilized approach with them?" Qiu Qiu Luoye intended to write a letter and have Li Li Banfeng bring it to give the other side a bit of a deterrent.

Thinking of the contract Qiu Qiu Luoye wrote for the strange monsters, judging by that literary talent, it was better not to write the letter for the time being.

Li Li Banfeng went directly to the east of the territory and saw Juanzi waiting by the side of the road from afar.

This person looked quite decent.

Having lived in Puluo Province for a year and a half, Li Li Banfeng had seen too many things and didn't feel that there was anything hard to accept about three-headed people.

A tiger under Qiu Qiu Luoye was negotiating with Juanzi: "I'm telling you, don't be ungrateful. Master Qiu told you to get lost immediately. If you don't get lost, I won't be polite anymore."

Juanzi said politely: "It doesn't matter if you don't take us in, can you give us something to eat?"

"Where would I get so much food to give you? Get lost immediately, don't force me to use force against you!"

Mengzi was angry: "So what if you use force? Do you think I'm afraid of you!"

Both sides were about to fight, but seeing Li Li Banfeng coming, the tiger quickly retreated to the side.

Li Qi looked at Juanzi, then at Mengzi, and also at Xiaoshan, and asked: "Who is in charge?"

Juanzi said: "It's me."

Juanzi was over two meters tall, and Li Li Banfeng felt it was tiring to look up, so he pointed to a stone by the side of the road and asked: "Can we sit down and talk?"

Juanzi nodded. As soon as she sat down, she was poked, and she stood up again.

The stone spoke; it was an old man's voice: "Master Seven, I am the one Master Qiu sent to talk. I haven't opened my mouth for half a day, and I've been sat on the face by this girl.

If I were young, being sat on is being sat on, but now that I'm old, this girl is quite heavy, and I can't really hold up."

Li Li Banfeng nodded, sat on the ground face-to-face with Juanzi, and asked directly: "What do you want to do by coming here?"

Juanzi said: "We want to find a place to settle down, and we want to ask if the Land Deity here is willing to take us in."

"If you want to settle down in the New Land, can't you just reclaim land? What is there to ask about?"

The three heads looked at each other; the person in front of them didn't seem to know much about them.

Juanzi heard the stone call Li Li Banfeng "Master Seven" just now, so she followed suit and called out: "Master Seven, we cannot reclaim land. The Land Deity cannot tolerate us."

"Why can't he tolerate you?"

"We are sinners, sinners from Sin City." When she said this, Juanzi was very honest and calm. They had no way to cover this up; the marks on their bodies were too obvious.

"What crime did you commit?"

Mengzi asked: "Don't you know about Sin City?"

Juanzi glared at Mengzi: "Don't interrupt!"

Li Li Banfeng said to Juanzi: "Even though you are in charge, you must let others speak. Here with me, everyone can speak."

Juanzi didn't quite understand. What did "everyone can speak here with me" mean?

And this person's attitude was also strange.

He knew nothing about Sin City, but seeing the three-headed people, he didn't look like he was looking at monsters.

Juanzi saw hope in Li Qi: "Master Seven, those who come out of Sin City are all people who have committed crimes. If the Land Deity is willing to give us a bite to eat, we are willing to work like oxen and horses. We absolutely dare not think about reclaiming land."

"What crime did you actually commit?"

"In Sin City, people are divided into two categories. One category comes to the Three-Headed Fork from the outside, fails to enter the Dao, fails to become a martial cultivator, and becomes a three-headed monster. Such people have committed crimes and will be sent to Sin City.

The other category is people born in Sin City. According to the rules of Sin City, three-headed monsters cannot marry and have children, but some people still gave birth to children,

these children originally only had one head, but they were born with crimes and had to stay in Sin City, and slowly they all grew three heads and became monsters..."

"Don't always say monsters," Li Li Banfeng frowned slightly, "that sounds harsh."

Juanzi looked at Li Li Banfeng for a moment. Even though she hadn't eaten for several days, her confidence was slightly stronger, and her voice was slightly louder:

"The sky light in the city never stops. This year it has been exceptionally fierce. When it's less, there is at least once every three days; when it's more, there are two or three times a day.

When the sky light shines on a person, in a few hours, the person explodes. You might not have seen that scene, and I don't know how to describe it."

Li Li Banfeng nodded and said: "I understand, I almost saw it."

Juanzi continued: "I don't know how many people died in the city, and we don't know how long we can live. There is a boundary outside Sin City, and we can't get out. Later, a benefactor came and pointed out a way for us to survive."

"Which benefactor?"

"That benefactor didn't let us reveal his identity. He gave us a map and told us to follow the map to find someone who would be willing to take us in.

Master Seven, we managed to survive until now. Every step we took, our footprints were stained with blood. Please tell Master Qiu that if he is willing to take us in, we will be extremely grateful.

If he is not willing to take us in, it doesn't matter. We only ask Master Qiu to give us a bite to eat, even if it's just one meal."

Li Li Banfeng was silent for a moment and asked: "There is one thing I didn't understand. You said 'take in'. Does that mean feeding and raising you every day?"

Juanzi shook her head repeatedly: "We just want a place to live. We will think of ways to survive ourselves. But if there is anything we can do, just tell us, and we will do whatever you ask."

Li Li Banfeng looked at Mengzi: "What do you say?"

Mengzi lowered his head and said: "What my sister said is what I say."

Li Li Banfeng looked at Xiaoshan again: "What about you?"

Xiaoshan's voice was very small: "I listen to my sister."

The three of them speaking in turn made Li Li Banfeng feel a bit familiar.

"Just saying it isn't enough. You have to do something."

Mengzi sneered. This was the same trick.

"What do you want us to do?"

Li Li Banfeng pointed to a forest in the distance: "Go cut some trees first and build some houses."

Mengzi sneered: "This trick again."

Li Li Banfeng frowned: "What trick?"

Juanzi bit her lip and looked up: "We agree."

They had been cheated before, so why did they agree?

Because they had no choice.

They hadn't eaten for several days. Even if they could exchange it for a meal, being a coolie was acceptable.

"Just having houses isn't enough. You have to farm. Do you know how to do farm work?"

Mengzi smiled. The trick to cheat people was the same.

Juanzi nodded: "We can do farm work too."

"From now on, you are people of this territory. If something happens, you must step up!"

"Whatever Master Seven wants us to do, we will do."

"It's a deal. Wait for me to write a contract, and you all have to press your handprints."

Li Li Banfeng left.

Mengzi gritted his teeth: "Why write a contract? The lies are told so convincingly."

Juanzi persuaded: "As long as there is something to eat, don't say anything more."

"We should have listened to Aunt Fang about this. We should have just robbed them."

"Don't talk nonsense. The benefactor said we can't do that kind of thing!"

Li Li Banfeng returned to the Leaving Suishenju, took out a large piece of paper, and wrote a contract.

The phonograph said from the side: "Precious husband, writing a contract, you don't need such a large piece of paper, right?"

"Precious wife, if I used small paper, I would have to write three thousand copies."

"Three thousand?" Xiang Xiang Hongying was stunned. "Husband, what kind of contract requires writing three thousand?"

A burst of steam made Xiang Xiang Hongying shiver. Li Li Banfeng didn't explain, finished writing the contract, and left the Leaving Suishenju.

The phonograph saw the content of the contract: "Husband found three thousand long-term residents. Is this really to turn the New Land into a Proper Land?"

Xiang Xiang Hongying sighed: "My husband is capable!"

The phonograph raised its board and said: "If I don't tear your mouth apart today, it means my family rules are not strict!"

Xiang Xiang Hongying covered her peach and said: "Tear my mouth if you want, why do you always hit my peach?"

"Do you have a mouth, you bitch!"

Li Li Banfeng placed the contract in front of Juanzi and watched her press her handprint: "Let your people press their handprints too."

Juanzi said: "They all listen to me..."

"That won't work. Everyone must press it. Not a single one can be missing. All three heads must discuss it well. If one head disagrees, this person is not allowed to enter the territory."

Li Li Banfeng sat there, watching more than three thousand people press their handprints one by one. A large piece of paper was covered with them.

More than three thousand three-headed people stood in front of him, and the tiger sent by Qiu Qiu Luoye was trembling.

"Master Seven is really not an ordinary person. How can he not be afraid?"

Li Li Banfeng really wasn't afraid.

What's wrong with three heads? Usually, they discuss things together, give ideas, chat, and play cards. Isn't that quite good?

Aunt Fang looked at the contract and sighed: "Juanzi, why don't you learn your lesson?"

Juanzi lowered her head: "Aunt Fang, say one word less, and get everyone something to eat first."

Li Li Banfeng had already prepared the food, two thousand oranges bought from the orange orchard: "These are good things. Two people can eat one, and it can keep you full. I'll put the meal money for these few days on my account. You have to pay me back later!"

Aunt Fang sneered: "Tricking us into being coolies and still asking us for meal money. Even more ruthless than Liang Liang Zhenjiao!"

Although she said that, having been hungry for so many days, everyone ate all two thousand oranges in a short while.

"Eat your fill and get to work!"

Li Li Banfeng drew a boundary and let the three-headed people build houses and farm on this plot.

Qiu Qiu Luoye was very nervous: "Brother, you brought them all in. Will this work?"

"Don't worry, Brother Qiu. Isn't the popularity of our territory coming now?"

A branch manager said in a low voice: "Do monsters like this count as people?"

Zuo Zuo Wugang glared at the branch manager: "From now on, don't call them monsters. Master Seven doesn't like to hear it!"

Li Li Banfeng went through the station, returned to his own territory, found Zhang Wanlong, bought several bags of fast-growing seeds, and handed them to Juanzi.

"If you sow these seeds, you will have a harvest in three days, but you can only use this one crop. Otherwise, the soil will be hurt. Get through this year first. In the coming spring, you must plant proper seeds."

Li Li Banfeng left. Several three-headed people smiled: "What coming spring? After planting this crop of grain, they will let us get lost."

Juanzi didn't say much, took people to plant the seeds, watered and fertilized them. Three days later, there was a harvest. Juanzi took people to collect the grain, put it in bags, found Li Li Banfeng, and asked: "Master Seven, how much can we take away?"

All the three-headed people were prepared to be driven away.

Li Li Banfeng looked at the grain and said: "These are all yours. Take them back and eat them."

"Take them back..." Juanzi didn't understand.

Li Li Banfeng pointed to the wooden houses: "That is your home. Go home and eat."

Home...

This word was too unfamiliar.

A group of three-headed people looked at Li Li Banfeng blankly.

Mengzi looked at Aunt Fang, and Aunt Fang couldn't speak for a long time.

Juanzi couldn't believe it was true and asked: "Master Seven, is there any work for us to do?"

Li Li Banfeng pointed to the crowd reclaiming land: "Ask them if they need workers. Earn some more money. Remember to pay me back for the seeds and oranges."

After speaking, Li Li Banfeng lowered his hat and left.

The three-headed people kept looking at Li Li Banfeng's back until he had walked very far.

This piece of New Land was different. There was a lot of sky light here, very bright, and one could see very far.

PS: Yumian Shala likes to talk and chat with other salads. What a lively thing.
