The second volume embarks on the path of cultivating immortals

Chapter 117 The Son of Heaven River Yumo enters the ancient town

Yumo looked at the trees in the mountains, the more they went up the mountain, the more yellow they became, only a few trees under the mountain were still green, this bit of green was so conspicuous in the snow, you could see the fruits on the green trees at a glance, and I don't know what kind of tree it was, it still retained a green in the cold wind.

The speed of the boat in the river was faster, because of the north wind, Yumo looked at the Lin fairy boy hiding in the cabin and did not come out, Yumo knew that he was afraid of the cold, and the clothes on his body were too thin.

Looking at the peaks on both sides of the river in the distance, Yumo in the wind and snow to see the town is not far away, see in front of the artificially dug embankment, is a sharp weapon to block the flood, see the other side of the river there is no embankment, only red maple leaves fluttering among the trees, this is a maple forest.

The maple forest corresponds to the embankment, like a pair of enemies who will never see each other, because they are on both sides of the river, and it is really good to die.

The boat continued onward, turning two bends, and was greeted by a much taller embankment, several kilometers long, with an earthen platform in the middle of the embankment, and a wooden railing underneath it.

There are several boats in the river, loaded with goods, and several big men are carrying cargo boxes to the boats, and I don't know what treasures are inside.

Yumo traveled to the vicinity of the ferry, jumped on the shore with Lin Xiantong on his back, and after jumping ashore, Yumo's hand moved, and the Shenxing Boat received the storage space when people were not paying attention, and Yumo jumped on the shore to look at the ferry.

Yu Mo pulled Lin Xiantong up to the embankment, looking at the other side of the embankment is a prosperous scene, seeing that there is an earthen high platform in the distance, Yu Mo doesn't know the use, looking at the buildings of this small mountain village are so rich.

Looking at the small mountain village in front of him is so rich and prosperous, Yumo looked at the embankment under his feet.

Looking at this ancient embankment, the outermost part of the embankment is a layer of rammed earth, the thickness of the rammed earth is about two zhang, the innermost part of the embankment is made of green bricks, from the inside to look like a city wall, the air is filled with the chill of early winter, this ancient "city wall" shows to the rain and ink, the extraordinaryness of this small village, showing the longevity of this village.

Yumo looked at the deep strangulation marks on the "city wall", knowing that this small village has experienced countless wind and rain, Yumo looked at the green bricks under his feet, how many years of mottled retention, there will be such heavy strangulation marks.

Looking at the uneven courtyard, it seems to be arranged in an orderly manner, the small courtyard is silent, there is no dog barking at the house, only different scenes are running back and forth in the small courtyard.

Yumo likes this kind of strolling on the streets of this small village with Lin Xiantong, especially in early winter, the winter state of mind has not yet fully come, intertwined with the autumn atmosphere, endless autumn, spreading in the bottom of my heart and eyes, stepping through the ancient city wall, Yumo came to the entrance of this small village.

I saw a big stone tablet at the entrance of the village, and the tablet was written "Wangu Town".

There are a few lines of small words below, and Yumo looks at them carefully.

"The Son of Heaven stands in the upper reaches of the river, the ancient town stands a monument, although the beacon fire goes to the village, it will not fall to the ancient town for ten thousand years. ”

Looking at the few lines of small words under the town, Yumo and Lin Xiantong were puzzled, the coolness of the weather made Lin Xiantong's upper and lower teeth come together.

It was noon, and every house was smoking from the cooking smoke, and from the city wall, it looked like a giant tree, reaching up to the clouds.

Looking at this small mountain village, they all live in the embankment, there can be at least a few hundred families in this open land, and there are dozens of families on the hillside in the distance, this small village seems to be very peaceful, and it looks very peaceful.

Looking at the back of the village, it seems that there is a high platform like an altar,

The word "beacon" can be vaguely seen in front of the platform, is this small village still a place where soldiers must fight?

In this mountain, why is there such a town, looking at the buildings in this town, it seems to be relatively old, and the style of the current building is different, this is what Lin Xiantong can see, for Yumo, the new and old houses can't be seen at all.

Looking at the scattered and orderly houses in this small village, Yumo seems that the distribution of each house contains a certain deep meaning, and every house is built in accordance with the requirements.

Why does Yumo feel this way, at a glance, this small village gives people a sense of peace and warmth.

At this glance, it seems that the body is filled with warm aura, is this a kind of formation, a kind of prohibition.

With its ancient walls and heavy bricks, there are many stories piled up, and this small village must have its own secrets. Yumo gently touched the brick wall on the embankment with his hand, leaving a certain amount of ink under his fingertips, looking at the dust on his hands, Yumo could feel the antiquity of this small village.

The quiet beacon tower, the ancient brick wall, is this the place where the ancients fought in the past? Or is it an important place in the Wu Kingdom, the passage of time has taken away a lot of things, leaving behind may be history, or it may be just some memories.

The cold wind blew Lin Xiantong's body trembling, and Yumo used the aura of fire to sweep away Lin Xiantong's body, sweeping away the chill on his body.

Yumo touched his pocket and had nothing, what should I do, look at my twenty-four bridges and bright moonlit nights, there is nothing valuable in it, by the way, there is also an intact mountain ginseng, this is also a hundred and ten years old mountain ginseng, how can it not be worth some silver.

Yumo and Lin Xiantong walked towards this town, and when they walked to the middle of the town, they saw that there were constantly pedestrians coming and going, this town was obviously a water dock, which could be the center of cargo turnover in important areas nearby.

Looking at all kinds of pedestrians, Yumo was also mixed in it, and Lin Xiantong walked while looking at the shops on both sides of the road, Yumo was looking for a pharmacy, and there was a mountain ginseng for sale in his hand, so that he could exchange some silver money to use.

At the corner of this most prosperous street, Yumo saw a copper gourd hanging on a house, this copper gourd has been very old, Yumo looks like an old object of some years, is this for the sale of pills?

It was the first time that Yumo saw some shops hanging gourds, so he approached the door of the store, and saw a couplet on the door, which read: I hope that people in the world are free of disease.

The following couplet writes: It is better to have medicine and dust on the shelf.

Yumo knew at a glance that this copper gourd was the symbol of the pharmacy, and pushed open the door of the pharmacy and saw an old man with gray hair inside, and a young man standing at the counter.

"What do you need?, our pharmacy has a lot of good medicines of the highest quality!" the young man said as he looked at Yumo and Lin Xiantong.

"Do you collect herbs here?" Yumo said as he looked at the old man.

"The shop only accepts some precious herbs, I wonder if the gentleman has any good goods?" said the young man, and the old man did not raise his head, as if he was still asleep.

"I have a hundred-year-old ginseng, I don't know if your store will accept it. As soon as Yumo said that it was a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, the old man opened his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, there seemed to be a flash in the room, and his eyes were too bright.

"Little friend, can this old ginseng make me take a look, our mountain and wild land, like a hundred years of ginseng, there are not a few, the price will not be too much, if the amount is okay, I can give ten taels of gold, here gold is hard currency!"

Yumo took out the relatively good mountain ginseng, this is the masterpiece of Xiaomeng and Xiaobai, the mountain ginseng does not look like ginseng at all, only the main stem of ginseng, and the ginseng is called

They were left in the ground.

Yumo took out this ginseng, the old man frowned, looked at the ginseng, and said to Yumo: "This one is at least one hundred and twenty years old, but the method of lifting the ginseng is too poor, this is like a dog and cat dug out of the ground, destroying the quality, look at the quality of this ginseng is okay, I can only give you five taels of gold." ”

When Yumo heard this, this guy was half worse all of a sudden, anyway, he doesn't take money very seriously, so he loves as much as he wants!

So Yumo nodded and agreed, and the old man took a small box and took out five gold leaves in the box, each piece was one tael, and five pieces were five taels of gold.

Yumo put away the gold leaves, went out of the pharmacy, went to find a tailor shop, see that this small mountain village is not big, but all the shops are complete, the owner of the tailor shop is a woman, this woman is graceful, half-old, a woman about forty years old.

I chose two sets of thickened cotton clothes for Liu Xiantong, and two clothes for myself, and paid twenty taels of silver.

Looking at the money for the remaining half of ginseng, Yumo first found an inn to rest, ate a beautiful meal after finishing things, rested for a night, and then bought some daily necessities, such as food on the road, etc.

As soon as Yumo thought of this, his brows furrowed, this money can't be used, and there are three gold leaves, that is, thirty taels of silver.

Yumo's feelings for silver are not very strong, his thirty taels of silver are enough for a family of three, and if he has normal living expenses, he can live for at least five years.

And Yumo bought clothes just now, and he was also looking for the materials that were good, and the price was expensive, so it cost twenty taels of silver.

Yumo thought that this thing should be so expensive, thinking that these thirty taels would not last two days.

Yumo saw that there was an inn in front of him called: Gaosheng Inn.

Yumo and Lin Xiantong entered the inn, and downstairs of the inn was a restaurant, entertaining passing guests, and there were two tables of people eating delicious wine and food.

"Boss, do you have a room? open two rooms for me, prepare hot water and bathtubs for both of us at night, and I will add extra money." Yumo looked at the boss opposite.

"Objective, how many days do you want to stay in our store?"

"Two nights. ”

"The cost of each night is two pieces of silver, and the two rooms are a total of eight pieces of silver, and if you count the bath, you can give "money and silver, including a breakfast."

"Okay. Yumo gave the money to the shopkeeper, and then found nine taels of silver.

"Two guest officers, please follow along. The shopkeeper ran over and led Yumo and Lin Xiantong to the second floor.

After walking up the wooden staircase, after going around a hallway, I came to the two rooms inside.

The two rooms on the second floor were next to each other, and Yumo came to the room and said to Xiao Er, "Get us four side dishes first and send them to the guest room." Prepare another ten catties of beef, buy another twenty flatbreads, and send them in together. ”

"That's objective, this silver, it's a lot. Yumo understood at a glance that he had to give money before he could prepare.

"Then calculate how much silver you want. ”

"Two pennies are enough. ”

"You prepare forty catties of beef, eighty flatbreads, and eight side dishes, and send them to the guest room, which is two taels of silver, and the more is your tip. "Yumo is enough to give the little guy a lot of reward, this little guy's monthly money is only a few dozen big guys a month, and he has never received so much silver.

This little guy's age is not much different from Yumo, or it is rare to see less, like Yumo has long stopped taking silver seriously, the key is that Zhengxi Mo does not take gold seriously, it is a spirit stone, a spirit stone worth a thousand gold, in Yumo, this is not like earth and stone, it is not worth mentioning. 2k reading web
