Chapter 42: Urn City

The next day, Nangong Qi was woken up by the heavy knock on the door. Looking at the hazy light outside the window, he sighed deeply.

Since his younger brother said he would supervise him to read books, he was woken up just after dawn.

According to the sky, it will be at most a little over six o'clock!

"Brother, get up!" Erlang's voice was full of breath. "Don't sleep anymore! The ancients started dancing when they heard the chicken, and it was already half an hour late!"

Haha... Some roosters even screamed at around four o'clock. Let me dance with the chicken? Dreaming!

Nangong Qi covered his head with a quilt, making Erlang's voice less harsh.

"Brother, the toiletries are ready." Erlang knocked on the door again, "Please get up quickly. The plan for the day is in the morning. It's time to get up and recite!"

......

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

"Brother, the lights are on the third day and the fifth day are the time when a man is studying. He doesn't know how to study hard early, but he regrets studying late after he is old. This poem is what you taught me and I will always remember it. My brother will never forget it, and I hope you don't forget it either!"

......

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

"Okay, OK!" Nangong Qi really had no choice. Since this little devil advised to study that day, he could no longer stop. He knocked on the door crazy these two days, making him unable to sleep even with a full sleep.

After quickly washing up, Nangong Qi looked at his younger brother who was reciting the Analects of Confucius loudly. He suddenly asked, "Erlang, when will you start class?"

"Five days after the autumn examination was released." Li Erlang looked at his brother curiously, as if wondering why the other party asked this stupid question.

In ancient times, schools generally did not have holidays. Only during the holidays would there be few holidays at the end of the year. However, during the imperial examination period, they all had holidays. Some teachers needed to take exams, while others needed to take exams.

However, generally speaking, teachers will come back to class after the exam. Because they fail the exam...

"It's time to calculate the day, it's too soon." Nangong Qi calculated with his fingers. "There are two days left!" Thinking of this, he completely relaxed. If Li Erlang kept asking him to get up before dawn, he would probably be crazy.

"In this way, today you and Uncle Wang go out to buy some shredded shui. Wait until tomorrow to send it to the teacher." Nangong Qi continued without waiting for Erlang to speak, "I happen to have something to do and I need to work for a while. I won't be with you."

While talking, Mrs. Li had already walked in from outside the door and was carrying steaming buns.

......

Nangong Qi knew that when the naughty child was on holiday, the family would be in chaos, but what he didn't expect was that the alternative naughty child like Li Erlang could even disturb him.

There was no way, Nangong Qi could only get up at dawn and have breakfast, and then left home in the morning fog.

Today, Nangong Qi is preparing to visit the Feng family. He is asking about real swords and guns.

The Feng family's residence is not in Hongxian, but in Fengjiazhuang. This is their own farm. However, there are some courtyards in Hongxian.

However, there are usually no people living in other courtyards. Nangong Qi could only ask Uncle Wang to find a carriage to take it over.

On the morning of early autumn, there was still a trace of fog that had not dissipated. On both sides of the road, some green and yellow weeds were shining, shining in the sun.

This was the first time that Nangong Qi walked out of Hongxian. He thought that the roads outside the ancient city would be muddy. However, in fact, the official road was as flat as a highway, and the soil on the road was obviously tightly compacted. It was even possible to add some secret recipe to make the soil feel like bricks and stones when it walked up.

But after watching for a while, Nangong Qi became a little tired.

Under the coachman's superb horse-driving skills, he finally fell asleep.

There is no way, it's too early to get up in the morning.

When he woke up, he had already arrived at Fengjiazhuang.

At this time, the villagers dressed in plain clothes on the roadside were watching the drying of grain. It could be seen that the harvest this year was pretty good, and at least they could keep some surplus grain at home.

When they saw a strange carriage, they were half alert and half curious.

Nangong Qi ignored these villagers, but took a straight ride to the largest house, Feng Mansion.

It is said to be Feng Mansion, but it looks like a small fortress. There is even a small river passing by the house! Something similar to a moat!

"Who?" The two strong men crossed their hands and looked at Nangong Qi who was coming alone.

"I am Li Zhaoting of the Li family. Please tell me about the old man Feng, and I will say that the old friend will come to visit later." Nangong Qi politely took out his visitor.

When I saw the prayer letter on the opposite side, my eyes became gentler.

"Wait for a moment."

Nangong Qi nodded, then stood at the gate of Feng Mansion and looked around.

Perhaps it was in the fiefdom that the entire Feng Mansion was as huge as a small city. There were not many residents' residences around it. The river at the door was slightly dark. It can be seen that the river, which is only three meters wide, must have been dug deep.

After crossing the river, there was a layer of hard soil that was crushed manually. At this time, some servants had already begun to expose the millet they had just harvested. From time to time, people walked around with high-rise strips of cloth to drive over to steal food.

After about two hundred meters, you can see some houses, as well as lush forests and the dirt road that Nangong Qi had just walked.

"Young Master Li, Grandpa Feng is invited." Nangong Qi was thinking about why the concierge who had just entered had already come out when the person lived so far away.

Nangong Qi thanked him, and then followed him into the small door.

This person's clothes were better than those of the gatekeeper, but unfortunately, the other party didn't say a word along the way, but just led the way silently.

After entering Feng Mansion, Nangong Qi discovered that the first place was actually a small square with a floor of doors and walls inside, which looked like a doll.

After thinking for a while, he realized.

This is actually a urn city!

It seems that the Feng family is even more generous than Nangong Qi imagined!

Thinking of the matter, Nangong Qi walked into the urn city with the more gorgeously dressed man and arrived in a large courtyard inside. It was also extremely spacious. It was as huge as a martial arts venue, with an arch on each side of the left and right. In the middle was a spacious hall.

At this time, the sun was rising, and the autumn sunlight shone into the hall, and an old man was sitting upright on the main seat.

"Please follow me." When he arrived in the courtyard, the silent man quietly retreated, and the receptionist turned into a maid about thirty years old.

Nangong Qi didn't say anything. He was just secretly surprised. The Feng Mansion's plot was too big.

"Nephew Li." Old Master Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at Nangong Qi who had just stepped into the hall. "But I haven't come to see me for a long time."

"My nephew Li Zhaoting greets the old man. I wish Mr. Feng a long-lasting pine and cypress to be like the evergreen." Nangong Qi bent down and gave a big gift. At the same time, he raised the gift he had prepared long ago.

At this time, the waiter who had already prepared came over and took the gift.
