Volume 1 Chapter 0004 Troubled Times
It wasn't until dawn that Fang Ming finished his cultivation and got up to move.
Although I haven't slept all night, I am full of energy, and I seem to have inexhaustible strength.
"Dragon Spirit, check my attributes. Fang Ming glanced down at the pendant, wanting to test the results of his overnight cultivation, so he commanded Long Ling.
"Yes, host, the properties are as follows
Fang Ming
Force: 31
Intelligence: 90
Constitution: 30
Power Points: 6/100
Pure Soul Transformation Divine Decision: Forging Body Realm"
"Well, the energy point has risen by 5 points overnight, and I have been practicing for about 2 and a half hours, it seems that 1 hour can absorb 2 units of energy points, and the force value has increased by 1 point. The physique has increased by 2 points, and the effect is good, if this is on the earth, you have to be in the gym and don't know how much you have to do to make iron. ”
"Remind the host, Li Ergou's body metabolism has begun to speed up, and he is about to wake up, please prepare the host, in addition, remind the host, please do not disclose any information related to this system, otherwise it will be wiped out!" Long Ling said coldly.
"I know, this is my own golden finger, and I'm not stupid!" Fang Ming responded with a smile.
'Afraid of exposure, hehe, very cautious, rest assured, the husband is not guilty, I still understand the truth of guilt, sooner or later, I must make it clear and clear. At this moment, Fang Ming muttered inwardly.
Fang Ming was sure that his crossing and the dragon spirit must have been the ghost of that old man, although he didn't know what his purpose was, but the dragon spirit gave him the only hope, even if it was a big trap, he could only grit his teeth and jump down, and pull the other party out step by step.
"According to my own understanding of the Pure Soul Transformation Divine Technique, the higher the realm of cultivation, the faster I can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is equivalent to the faster and faster my recovery speed! It seems that he must develop obscenely, and the matter of charging into battle will be handed over to others. ”
After a while, Li Ergou was the first to wake up, and when he saw Fang Ming walking back and forth, he was first surprised, and then said softly: "Childe's body has recovered?" In Ergou's memory, aren't rich sons lazy people who don't get up until three o'clock in the morning.
"Well, after eating some dry food and resting all night, it's fine. Fang Ming smiled slightly and replied flatly.
Ergou's surprised look naturally fell in his eyes, Fang Ming didn't mind, through Lao Li's introduction yesterday, he knew that Ergou had grown up in the village since he was a child, studied for a few years, barely knew some words, didn't go out to see the world, and heard everything about the outside world from the mouths of adults, with little social experience, no ability to discriminate, and the gap with Lao Li Tou was too big.
Maybe the two of them were talking too loudly, which woke up Lao Li Tou.
He opened his eyes and saw Fang Ming standing there with a radiant expression, and said in surprise: "Fang Gongzi really has a good foundation, and he has recovered as good as before in just one night, which is gratifying!" Maybe it was because he thought of his injury, Lao Li was sad, and after a while, he sighed: "It's really enviable!"
"Where is it, Lao Li is serious, he knows his own family affairs, and the kid is still powerless. Fang Ming shook his head and smiled.
"Childe is humble, Ergou, help me up. Lao Li Tou responded.
When Ergou heard this, he hurriedly picked up Lao Li's head, and after he stood firm, he began to pack up and sort out his burden.
"Childe, do you think of anything, but is there a place to go?" asked Lao Li after getting up.
"I still don't think of anything. Fang Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"In this way, the son will go with the old father and son for the time being, and the rest of the things will be talked about in the future!"
"Well, according to what Lao Li said, it's troublesome for the time being. ”
"No trouble, no trouble, one more person, one more help. However, forgive the old man for his clumsiness, he can't see what the clothes of the son are made of, and he must not be a mortal thing, and now that he has fallen into trouble, the old man thinks that it is better to put on ordinary clothes, which is chaotic, so as not to cause others to peep. Lao Li Tou comforted.
"Well, it's still Lao Li Tou's thoughtfulness, this clothing is really inappropriate!"
"If Childe doesn't dislike it, he will wear old clothes first, but Ergou's clothes are bigger for Childe. ”
"Thank you, old Li. ”
"Ergou, get your clothes for Childe. ”
"Okay, Daddy, Childe, please wait a minute. "Ergou is always so taciturn. Don't look at his height, but he is very careful in his work, and the clothes taken out of the baggage are neatly folded, Fang Ming asked himself if he could do it.
However, looking at the clothes similar to ancient times in front of him, Fang Ming hesitated and didn't move, how to wear this thing?
As if seeing Fang Ming's embarrassment, Ergou said: "Childe will take off his old clothes first, and I will help Childe put them on." ”
"Okay, I'm in trouble with the second dog."
After everything was packed up and put on the 'new' clothes, Fang Ming said, "Ergou, can there be a fire break?"
The second dog directly untied the fire from his waist and folded it down.
"Wait a minute, you two. ”
After Fang Ming finished speaking, he walked to the back of the house alone and burned the clothes and shoes he had worn in this world.
"Since you can't go back for the time being, let's stay in peace!" Looking at the firelight, Fang Ming was stunned.
"Dad, the jade pendant on Childe's chest is a dragon, right?" Ergou asked softly.
"Whether it's or not, you shouldn't have seen it. Old Li Tou commanded.
"Got it, Dad. Obviously, when Fang Ming changed his clothes, the dragon-shaped jade pendant on his chest naturally fell into the eyes of the father and son, in their cognition, this kind of thing was not something that ordinary people could wear.
"I'm done, let's go. After Fang Ming came back, he took the initiative to support Lao Litou, the second dog pushed the wheelbarrow, and the three of them left along the road.
According to Lao Li Tou's plan, the three of them walked all the way to Yuncheng County, which is located in the east of Nancheng County, according to him, his eldest brother Li Jia Dalang has a family business there, and it should not be a problem to settle the three of them.
Yuncheng County is the same as Nancheng County, the same is the county seat under Anle County, but Nancheng County is in the westernmost part, Yuncheng County is in the easternmost part, and there is a Jiao County in the middle, because the terrain of the three counties belongs to the hilly landform, the mountains are undulating, and the old Li head legs and feet are inconvenient, although the straight-line distance is only about 300 miles, but it takes 10 days to arrive.
After a whole day of talking, Fang Ming finally understood what kind of world he was in now.
This is similar to the ancient China on the earth in the previous life, the same feudal dynasty, the current dynasty is called Dachu, the country has been established for more than 230 years, the land is very vast, how big is it, Lao Li Tou can't say clearly.
It is only known that the east and west, north and south are thousands of miles apart, and the world is divided into seventeen states.
From left to right, in order:
Lan, Liang, and the three prefectures in the northwest;
the three states of Jin, Youyou and Ping in the northeast;
the three prefectures of Mian, Jiao and Henan in the southwest;
Anhui, Yang, and Xu prefectures in the southeast;
Among the five states of the Central Plains, Yizhou is in the west, Jizhou is in the north, Qingzhou is in the east, and Jingzhou is in the south.
The three of them are currently located in Nancheng County, Anle County, Zhongjiao Prefecture, the three southwestern states, which have many mountains and few places, high altitude, and lack of resources, and are relatively poor compared to other places in Dachu.
In the north of Great Chu, there is a strong feud with the Xiongnu, they have been passed down in the form of tribes to this day, and now under the leadership of Ashinagili, who is respected as the Khan of the Heavens, the Huns are unprecedentedly united, powerful, and they always want to herd horses to the south and enjoy the flower world of the Central Plains.
Like all dynasties that change the old and the new, Da Chu also abides by the rule of declining and flourishing, and from prosperity to decline.
Before the establishment of the Great Chu, it was for the Great Qi, when the common people who were overburdened with taxes and miscellaneous taxes were miserable, and the people were not able to make a living, Chu Taizu rose up and took the lead in resisting, and after more than ten years of hard fighting, he finally overthrew the rule of the former Qi and established the Great Chu.
After the founding of the country, in the face of the threat of the Xiongnu in the north, Chu Taizu worked hard to govern the country, recuperated for more than 20 years, and finally defeated the strong with the weak, and the Huns who fought almost wiped out the country and perished, until the Khan at that time bowed down to the vassals.
Later, it was governed by several generations of Ming monarchs such as Gaozu and Chengzu, coupled with the smooth wind and rain, there were no major natural disasters, and the country was strong.
It's a pity that starting from Emperor Chu Heng a hundred years ago, there have been several faint monarchs one after another, all of whom are pro-villains and far away virtuous ministers, making the court a miasma, and more frequent cases of relatives interfering in politics, disputes between emperors and queens, and rebellions among friends, coupled with several mutinies, a lot of manpower and material resources are consumed in internal strife.
To add insult to injury, natural and man-made disasters have continued in recent years, with many peasant households harvesting negligible and the national treasury empty, unable to effectively release grain for disaster relief and appease the people.
More of the victims are gathered together, rebel against the imperial court, more and more fierce, the rebels throughout the Central Plains and the southeast states, the local government for various reasons, is also helpless, the situation of the three southwestern states is good, although poor, but the land is vast and sparsely populated, there is basically no rebellion.
In the face of the increasingly severe situation, the current emperor, Emperor Chu Huai, has the heart to turn the tide and revitalize the dynasty.
However, because of his lack of ability, and suspicious nature, he mistakenly killed Zhongliang many times, coupled with the fact that the major families had ghosts in their hearts and were unwilling to take the lead, they all hid their talents, so that the people who led the army to counter-rebel were either unlearned and unskilled, or they were talking on paper.
