1254 North, South
Que Tingxiang is very attentive to the sight of others. Especially the person you're chatting to.
As soon as Shui Xin's gaze slipped, Que Tingxiang noticed it. As she looked at it, Rao is Que Tingxiang was introverted, and she couldn't help but be embarrassed, "What do you want to do with that?"
"Pinch it...... Uh, ahem, I mean, can you write on it?"
What Shui Xin was looking at at at this time was the glass-shaped gray wolf ball. Who made Lin Chengsi stab and stab? Shui Xin was really wondering, could it be liquid inside?
Can I use it as an ink?
Fortunately, she came back to her senses in time in Que Tingxiang's vigilant tone, remembering that Confucian Xiu was very particular about pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Even if it is not required to be a Wenbao, it is still exquisite.
It is estimated that it is unacceptable to use unknown objects to make ink or something. What's more, I don't know if it's liquid!
Shui Xin thought and walked over there to pick up a ball.
All the balls look the same, pinch them...... However, it did not move.
"Sister, you ......" Lin Chengsi couldn't stop it. They were all testing with sticks and stuff, and who knew that this girl would just get their hands on it, though the smooth texture didn't look like it was poisonous......
"Can't you pick it up and take a look if you want to eat it?" Shui Xin's answer was very powerful, and Lin Chengsi was speechless.
"It's actually quite hard. Shui Xin commented.
Lin Chengsi felt funny, "When you look at it from the side, you naturally feel simple." It's not that soft. ”
Shui Xin pouted in her heart, but in fact, she just controlled her strength.
"What happens when you write on this?"
Lin Chengsi and Yao Sanlang really didn't pay attention to what Shui Xin and Que Tingxiang were talking about before. I felt unbelievable when I heard the words. Why are the two girls' ideas about booty more bizarre than the other?
Yao Saburo was thoughtful, "Why do you want to write on this?"
How simple is that......
"It's not easy to break. ”
"Well, that makes sense. Yao Saburo actually agreed.
Lin Chengsi looked at him speechlessly, and Zhao Chu's face actually had a sense of disappointment that "delicious flew away".
But Shui Xin does have a point.
As Shui Xin thought, these Confucian cultivators all brought pens. It's just that someone used it just now. Because they have a trick called "Volley Book", which completely uses heaven and earth as paper and literary power as ink. It is the easiest way to use spells in Confucianism. The disadvantage is that it consumes a lot and dissipates quickly. It is not necessary to change to a monk in the righteous period.
The other three things of the four treasures of the study are different.
First, there are alternatives that can be used out of thin air, and second, it is indeed inconvenient to carry without allowing the use of storage props.
As a result, in the environment of "Northern Wilderness", it is difficult to get temporary supplies.
Instead, the villagers invented dyes of different colors for a variety of purposes – contract red rope was one, and some could be used instead of ink.
This kind of thing can also be settled.
What about "paper"?
The villagers didn't have any use of paper at all, and they didn't have a need for it! Their writing and language were passed down before they entered the Northern Wilderness. It's only been a hundred years. If it takes a little longer, it will be a question of whether the two sides can communicate. There has been a noticeable deterioration in their vocabulary – this is the conclusion that Que Tingxiang has come to when he compares the records of ancient civilizations.
The Confucian cultivators here all know some methods of making paper, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice. Who can try to invent paper with existing materials in such an environment?
What's the use of that kind of paper that can't even carry the power of writing? If you want to write, it's better to find a big tree, find a stone, and carve it directly!
Yao Saburo actually threw away the stick in his hand and took a ball in his hand.
Of course, he knew what to write if he wanted to write.
It was unthinkable at first, but if the sword cultivators couldn't think of it after recovering their strength through the oath, it was not negligence, it was stupidity.
"If it's this size, the green word is definitely not suitable. It's better to still have an inscription, it's better to keep it simple. Yao Saburo actually thought about it very seriously. As he spoke, he suddenly smiled and said, "If I also write about guarding this land, will it be counted as your team?"
Hearing this, Que Tingxiang and Lin Chengsi also thought about it seriously.
Neither of them was unhappy, but was thinking about such a possibility - seriously, from the beginning, they didn't care much about winning or losing the game except for the task Shui Xin was carrying.
"It's hard to say. Que Tingxiang said, "But I think you can try." Not because we won or lost, but because it gives us more information. What is known now ......"
Before Que Tingxiang finished speaking, Zhao Chu's gaze was slightly condensed, "Someone is coming." ”
Zhao Chu's gaze looked in the direction of the barrier they had been leaning on last night. The barrier still blocks out some of the sound, and if you look closely, you can see the foliage of the forest over there.
"It's a good timing. Yao Saburo stood up with the glass ball of the gray wolf and smiled.
However, even after a day's time, as if he deliberately did not go to treatment, the scar on Yao Saburo's face still remained. Therefore, his current smile has long since lost the warmth and temperament of Shui Xin when he first saw him. It looks quite hideous.
Thinking about it, if he looked like this, whether it was Jun Miaorong or Lin Anran, they wouldn't think that this person could be married......
"Yes, we don't come when something happens, and we don't come back when we're settled. The timing was perfect enough. Lin Chengsi also explained.
This is for Shui Xin to listen to.
But when the time comes, it doesn't necessarily mean that there is malicious intent. Maybe it's just not so kind.
Que Tingxiang greeted, and the villagers hurriedly gathered behind Que Tingxiang and the others.
Passing by several ruined villages, the villagers were sure that there was no longer any safety in the forest. A group of careerists has appeared, and the methods are quite cruel!
However, in the end, it was not Kang Zhongcheng's team that appeared in front of the two teams.
At least, not this team that has already been characterized as problematic.
It is two Confucian cultivators, with two sword cultivators, and the normal configuration of several aborigines.
"Li Shengxuan?" Lin Chengsi recognized one of them first.
"Wow!" On the other side of the barrier, a Confucian cultivator also let out an emotional voice, "...... That's it!"
The meaningful omission was undoubtedly due to the fact that they were surrounded by a few villagers dressed as hunters. Everyone in the contestant knows what he omitted. Que Tingxiang and the others were the ones who wrote down the general situation of the six hundred contestants.
With the artificial introduction of "Li Shengxuan", I immediately thought about what kind of team this is.
Although Li Shengxuan is also surnamed Li, he has nothing to do with the Li family in Qucheng. It is an innate heavenly eye sent from other places, and it is also from a local family. When I came to Qucheng, I changed from the pride of the sky to all living beings, and I was a little uncomfortable.
In his team, four of the five Confucian cultivators are from other places, and they are not students of Nanhai Academy, so it can be said that among the sixty teams, the relationship with Nanhai Academy is the weakest.
Luck wasn't good.
Such thoughts passed through the hearts of several people. At the same time, they have become more vigilant. Li Shengxuan is a person who is a little talented, but he is also a little arrogant. He is reluctant to "climb high" among the children of Qucheng's family, and he is quite proud of the children of poor families and commoners with ordinary backgrounds.
His popularity is not good.
In addition, the team members come from all over the world, and their understanding of each other is quite limited. It is inevitable that people have to worry that among these people, there are impostors, or even worse!
Que Tingxiang was vigilant in her heart, but her appearance was down-to-earth and generous, "I've been waiting for a long journey, and when I first arrived, I was a little embarrassed, and I smiled." I want to ...... too."
"Wait!" Another Confucian cultivator interrupted from the other side of the barrier, "What about the old man, how do you get a woman to come out and speak?"
Que Tingxiang's smile stiffened slightly.
Shui Xin was shocked.
Although she also lamented early on that the status of women in the north is far inferior to that in the south. But at least on the surface, the Confucian cultivators still put on an attitude of "respecting women...... It's not right, it's the attitude of "respecting women's heavenly eyes". It's the first time I've seen such outrageous words!
...... Well, because after arriving in Qucheng, the people who came into contact with the children of the family and the selected Confucian cultivators?
Look this way......
Yao Saburo turned around and left, finding a place to make a false sleep.
Lin Chengsi pretended not to have heard anything, his ears were clear, and his smile was still there.
Nalan Jinghui and Xia Xi were originally far away, but they didn't mean to come together at all. Xia Xi also said to Nalan Jinghui, "Do you know what this means?"
"Anyway, I can't get married, of course, I have to express disdain. Nalan Jinghui said.
As a result, Xia Xi sighed.
He is innate in marrying a woman, but he doesn't want to marry. Is that the difference between not wanting to and not being able to do it?
"You're still the same. Qu Hao. ”
The disrespectful Confucian Xiu's face changed, but he soon smiled in a strange tone, "I really didn't expect that Aha, Miss Que even remembers a little person like me?"
"I don't remember. Que Tingxiang said, "But as soon as I heard that, I remembered." ”
There are not many people who put this attitude of "looking down on female Confucian cultivators and looking down on women" on the surface, and they are eager to promote it from time to time.
Que Tingxiang didn't let this person continue, and changed the topic, "The village in the east, did you see who destroyed it?"
Now, it was the turn of the two people on the opposite side to stiffen.
At a glance, they knew a little.
Even, fear of what you see.
"Looks like I saw it. ”
"So?" Qu Hao said, "Do you still want to trouble those people?"
"Did they go east, or did they go north?" Que Tingxiang only looked at Li Shengxuan.
Li Shengxuan lowered his eyebrows and finally spoke, "We can't be sure. At that time, we were disconnected from the surrounding area. Those people didn't show their faces in front of us. ”
"Disconnect from the surroundings, can you still do this?" Xia Xi shouted in surprise, and then suddenly said, "Yes, contract." ”
The barrier between the two villages, where people on both sides can cross each other, is because there is a natural "contract" and an agreement is reached between the two parties. But what if no agreement can be reached?
Que Tingxiang shook her head directly, "If I guessed correctly, the east and west can be broken, and the north and south cannot be broken, right?" Without waiting for Li Shengxuan's reply, he said, "We are preparing to enclose a piece of land around here to settle the villagers......"
"No!" Li Shengxuan immediately shouted.
"Sure enough, is the north and the south indispensable?" Que Tingxiang confirmed.
There are some things that really need to be understood by people from the south and north.
Not only is the north and south indispensable, but Que Tingxiang also heard another layer of meaning-
Lee Seung-hyun had no intention of expanding.
If Li Shengxuan hadn't shouted like that before, he estimated that Qu Hao would have spoken. It's a little bit of a frightening thing. Obviously, the number of villagers is also small, and the number of people in the team is not complete. But they have been recuperating and developing for several days, so they should communicate with them to divide the winners and losers.
"It's okay if I don't have a border with you. Que Tingxiang showed a smile that grasped the initiative, "When we enclose the land, we will pay attention to keeping a distance from you." That's how good you are, and I'm okay. ”
"No!" Li Shengxuan categorically vetoed again.
After saying that, he was a little annoyed, as if he couldn't hold his breath.
"So...... Are you worried that the monsters in the north will be blocked by us?"
"Their villagers are stronger than ours. Zhao Chu walked to Que Tingxiang's side and said. She had been watching for a while. However, it was not Confucian or sword cultivators who were observed, but the villagers they brought with them.
The villagers, dressed as hunters, were clearly a little impatient.
When Que Tingxiang said that he wanted to enclose land in the north, these villagers were very unhappy and frequently looked at Li Shengxuan. If Li Shengxuan's reaction was two steps slower, I was afraid that the dissatisfaction of these villagers would immediately come out.
In other words...... Li Shengxuan can't control these villagers a little!
But those villagers obviously don't have the acquired condensation of the soul of the soldiers, that is, the appearance of the peak of the Great Penetration, and they are short of a chance. I can't control it like that...... Then, those two quail-like sword cultivators really didn't recover their strength!
"I know. Que Tingxiang nodded, and asked Li Shengxuan again, "When did those monsters in the north start to appear?"
- If the villagers have always been in their memory, they will always be close to their village, and these villagers will either evolve to be a sword, or they will have been killed and don't want to go north at all. Now like this, it is clear that I have just tasted the sweetness, and there is not much suffering, so I am reluctant to give up!
"It's always been before!" a younger villager couldn't help but shout, "but then it won't be there for hundreds of miles to the north!
Zhao Chu thought about it and took a gray wolf's glass ball to the barrier junction-
They were almost standing against the barrier, but they were at least five meters away from it. I can't see it any further.
"How to eat?" Zhao Chu asked curiously.
They actually replied, "It's baked and eaten!"
Lin Chengsi sneered - So, Li Shengxuan's idea was to use those monsters to expand his strength, and then go south?
