457 Outside Greenwood
Xu Wen has never made up his mind.
Taking the car back to the green forest, of course, is much more comfortable than hiking, not only is it tiring but not tired, blocking the wind, at least it is not so cold.
And, in the car, they still have plenty of time to study and discuss.
For a while, this has almost become the instinct of the first team of the moon age, they can't be idle at all, and when they have a little time, they try to find things to do as much as possible, and fill their time to the full.
They feel very fulfilling.
Crucially, they are aware that they are on the right path and are learning something very important and useful!
It is precisely because of this initiative that they grow very fast and change almost every day.
Wu Keming had been watching from a distance before, and this was the first time he had been in close contact with the lives of these young people.
He was stunned.
To be honest, he really likes Jiang Wangfeng very much, even if Jiang Wangfeng is unwilling to worship him as a teacher, he wants to teach him how to draw.
As a result, he found that there was no time at all.
It's not that he is not available, but that Jiang Wangfeng is not available.
All his time is occupied by professional studies and seminars!
And, obviously, it was spontaneous. This group of young people is absorbing knowledge with great enthusiasm and enthusiasm, and they are exploring and observing the world!
This kind of spirit is by no means inferior to the students who have studied hard for ten years, but there are many things that are different.
Most of the scholars studied hard, just around the Four Books and Five Classics, and the words of the sages, practicing the eight-strand formula.
Wu Ke was born as a literati and was not a literati, so he had long disliked them for being stiff and rigid.
But it was also hard work, and he still learned things that he didn't know too much, but these young people in front of him gave him a completely different feeling.
They are alive and they are open-minded. They stand on the ground, but their eyes are fixed on this world, something deeper, farther and more essential behind the world.
These numbers, lines, and so-called formulas may have lost some of the aura in his eyes, but they were more stable, more grounded, and more in line with what he saw and heard on a daily basis.
So along the way, Wu Keming didn't talk much.
He spent most of his time watching these young people, and some indescribable feeling loomed in his mind, ready to take shape at any moment.
With the help of the secret passage of Shibiju and the carriage, they greatly increased their speed, and they had already approached Greenforest Town on the morning of the second day after leaving Shibiju.
It was also not convenient to travel at night with a carriage, and the night before they had slept out in the open the night by relying on the carriage.
It is not entirely accurate to say that it is sleeping in the open.
The young men leaned against a protruding rock and dug several half-submerged holes underneath, large and small.
They investigated in advance, had some understanding of the topography and land conditions here, and then discussed for a while and quickly constructed the construction.
At that moment, Wu Keming felt that the speed of time around him seemed to be speeding up, and those caves appeared in front of him from scratch, with a somewhat peculiar shape, but at a glance, they could block the wind and rain and gather heat.
Then the young men lit some fires on the side of the hole, which was not strong and half buried in the earth, but provided some heat continuously.
Just like Wu Keming felt before, the heat was collected in, and it was still a little cold standing outside, and after a few steps inside, he could feel the steaming heat, and the whole person warmed up.
"Wonderful, it's really not cold at all!" Wu Keming rarely spoke, looking left and right in surprise.
The cave is not round or square, a little odd-shaped, but it is very cleverly designed, the luggage is well stored, and there is plenty of space to sit and lie down, which makes people feel comfortable even on this cold winter night.
"Who designed this?" Wu Keming stretched out his hand from his sleeve and asked curiously.
"We thought about it together, and we referred to Greenwood. Jiang Wangfeng said with a smile, helping to put his companion's luggage in the corresponding position. Then he pointed to the right and then to the left, "The first was Xu Xihuai's proposal, and the last was the coordination of the fourteenth brother, and they contributed the most." ”
After putting the luggage, he breathed a long sigh of relief, sat down and straightened his legs: "It's so comfortable......"
Wu Keming sat down not far from him and looked around again.
I have to say that this rare warm winter night left a deep impression on him, but what was even more impressive was the discussion after they all settled down.
"The rain is still a little bit worse. Here, here, and here it's easy to leak. ”
"Well, I checked the local chronicles last time, and it rains for more than 70 days a year on average in the Western Desert, which is actually not a low frequency. Every 10 years, there is also a heavy rain for about seven consecutive days, which often causes disasters in various places. If you really want to design a house for long-term living, you must also take this into account. ”
"Hey, I was going to check it too, but I didn't expect to be preempted by you. ”
"Hehe, I've got the upper hand. ”
In the discussion, everyone shared what they knew and thought to their heart's content, without hesitation or concealment.
This atmosphere and the steaming heat even gave Wu Keming a sense of indifference, and unconsciously, he fell asleep, and his dreams were full of small discussions and focused eyes.
The next morning, they arrived on the outskirts of Greenwood.
This time, when they were still some distance from the town, they felt that they were not far away.
On the one hand, they have an impression of the terrain outside, and on the other hand, after visiting Greenwood Town once, they seem to be able to feel the difference in its surroundings.
"I don't know what the next mission will be. Sun Si said.
"Hope is still on the side of Tianyun Mountain. Jiang Wangfeng said.
"Well, the quest itself is quite interesting. Qiao Zhi was a little expectant.
A group of people were discussing, and Xu Wen suddenly pricked up his ears and turned his head to the side.
"What?" Xu San immediately found out and asked.
"It felt noisy. Xu asked.
"Noisy?huh...... There are so many people!" Jiang Wangfeng first lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, and immediately shouted.
Xu Wen looked in his direction, and saw that a lot of black heads appeared densely in the direction of Green Forest Town, they were crowded one after another, in fact, the sound was not so loud, but there were many people, and the dull anger naturally spread into the distance.
Wrath?
Mass events?
Xu Wen was more vigilant and said to the coachman, "Slow down." ”
Needless to say, the driver had already slowed down on his own initiative, drove some distance from the crowd, and stopped.
As he got closer, Xu Wen saw more clearly, there were about two or three hundred people in this group, all of them were in rags, and many of them were even only wrapped in some pieces of cloth, and most of their bodies were naked.
It's winter, winter in the Western Desert!
These people were scrawny and blind, and they felt that they had only one breath left, and they could be planted on the ground and die at any moment.
This state immediately reminded Xu Wen of a city-
Spring City!
These people are very similar to the people I have seen before, and even a little worse.
Xu Wen's first thought when he saw them was: What are you doing here, why don't you let them into the city quickly?
So many craftsmen can be accommodated, what are these two or three hundred people?
Then he looked forward, and his heart sank.
The city gates were closed, and Greenwood Town expressed its refusal very clearly!
