Then Wang Xiaode checked the talisman on his body again, and then entered the village incognito, after entering the village, Wang Xiaode was surprised to find that the language used by the villagers was very similar to Huaxia, but it seemed to have a bit of ancient speech, and there were also people with yellow skin, black hair and black eyes similar to Huaxia people. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

This can't help but remind Wang Xiaode of the Wuhu Rebellion in Chinese history and the incident of killing Hu Ling. There is clear historical evidence to prove that in history, the Chinese human race is indeed diverse, but due to the relationship of ethnic hatred at that time, after the indiscriminate killing of aliens, as long as they are not black-haired and black-eyed, they are all recognized as aliens by the people and all killed.

This has led to the fact that there are only Chinese people with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin in today's society. Could it be that the other world is from the same source as the earth world? Let go of the entanglement of history, and at least show that there will be no big obstacles to language communication here.

After observing the village in detail, Wang Xiaode withdrew from the village, came to the entrance of the village again, and showed his figure and walked slowly towards the village.

When they were still some distance away from the village, they were discovered by some young people at the entrance of the village, and they were all very excited, most of them walked towards Wang Xiaode, and a few seemed to go back to report the news.

"Stop, don't come any closer, what are you!" The young man on the opposite side shouted loudly when he kept a certain distance from Wang Xiaode, this can't be blamed for them being too cautious, this is the western border of the Anthony Kingdom, although the western desert also belongs to the Anthony Kingdom, but because the area is too large, it can't be managed at all, resulting in the existence of some sand bandits inside.

And their border villages are, to put it bluntly, the border cordon set up by the kingdom, and once something happens, they are the first to be abandoned.

"Hello, please don't be nervous, I have no malicious intentions, I am a lost pharmacist, I got lost for a long time to get here, can you give me some water, can I exchange" said and took out some meat from his bag, Wang Xiaode has already seen that life here is very bad, meat is a delicacy that is usually difficult for them to eat. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I didn't take out too much, only a small piece.

When the other villagers saw the piece of meat in Wang Xiaode's hand, their eyes turned green, and a few of them helped persuade the young man who took the lead to let Wang Xiaode go. "James, I don't think this kid looks like a bad guy, and he's just alone, even if he is a knight and doesn't have a war horse, what are so many of us afraid of, just let him come over" Another young man hurriedly persuaded.

Hearing this, James was also a little hesitant, but he still shook his head, "Let's wait for Old Jack to come and have a look."

At this time, there was a noise from the entrance of the village behind the young man, "Coming, coming, old Jack is coming." The voice was accompanied by an old man with gray hair, but his body was strong. It is said that he once served as a soldier in the county, but later retired when he was old, and he is considered highly respected here.

Old Jack stepped forward and nodded to James, and said to Wang Xiaode, "Young man, Old Jack welcomes you to bring kind friends as guests, Old Jack has never seen any second side of someone he hates in his life"

Speaking of this, some people in the back laughed quietly, they knew Old Jack's temper, and those who didn't have the strength were beaten down by Old Jack, and Old Jack was sent here because he offended in the Earl's City, so he didn't see the second side.

"Hello Jack, believe me, I'm here with good intentions, I'm just looking for some water in exchange for dried meat, hoping to find a place to stay. I've drunk all the water on my body," Wang Xiaode hurriedly explained. I knew that if I had a bad attitude, I would find it difficult to get their approval, and I wouldn't be able to enter the village.

"Old Jack is kind, kind people will not let other good people die of thirst, you come in with me. Everyone else has dispersed and come to my yard at night," he shouted to the other onlookers.

Under the leadership of Old Jack, Wang Xiaode followed into the village and came to Old Jack's house. Old Jack served Wang Xiaode a bowl of water, Wang Xiaode could only play a trick, and drank three bowls of water before stopping, fortunately, he also had the strength to practice qi, and there was no problem with a few large bowls of water.

At this time, a little boy about 10 years old ran out of the house, and Wang Xiaode gradually learned about the situation here in the following exchanges.

It turned out that Old Jack had only one little grandson by his side, his daughter-in-law was killed in a fire, and his son worked as a runner in a tavern in the Viscount. This is a tax-reducing village established by the upper earls in response to the royal family's call on the western border.

That is to say, the village here enjoyed the lord's tax reduction policy for six consecutive years from the first year, only one layer of grain tax in the first year, two layers in the second year, three layers in the third year, and it was not until the seventh year that the seven layers were stable. And every 10 years the Earl would select 10 men and women from the village to go further west to establish a new tax-reducing village together with the young men selected from the other villages. Step by step, the state's rule over the Western Desert was consolidated.

As long as the tax reduction village does not have its own knight lord, it must always obey the earl's arrangement for the villagers.

Then Wang Xiaode temporarily lived in the house of Old Jack's son under the arrangement of Old Jack, and Wang Xiaode also ordered his own piece of jerky.

In the evening, the whole village gathered outside Old Jack's house, and one person from each family went out into the courtyard, each with a large bowl, and lined up to lead the broth. That's right, collar broth. Old Jack divided the piece of jerky into several portions, took one and boiled a large pot of broth, and distributed it among the more than 200 people in the village, and the light men each received a small slice of meat. The other pieces of meat were placed in a deep well.

In this way, some people wrapped the meat slices and looked reluctant to eat them, apparently wanting to take them home and eat them with their families.

Wang Xiaode saw all this in the house, and couldn't help but sigh at the backwardness of the living standard here.

After the soup was over, Old Jack returned to the house and couldn't help but laugh at Wang Xiaode twice. "I'll make you see the joke, we are close to the desert here, there is wasteland all around, there are no animals, and we only have this well in my village, which was dug by the Earl when the village was built."

In fact, Old Jack has already seen that the young man in front of him is definitely not an ordinary person, although the clothes are simple, but there is no patch, and the life is elegant, the skin is white and tender, and he looks at other villagers with curiosity, and the eyes when he sees the poor. Old Jack was almost certain that this was a man who had traveled like a noble child, and had not seen much pain and calamity.

And Old Jack just wanted to see if this young man could bring any benefits to the village, you know, the village has been established for almost nine years, and according to the normal situation, there will be 10 young people in the village, or even more than 10 people will be taken away. If the village has a lord, then there is no need to separate flesh and blood.

"Mingde, I heard that you are a pharmacist, I don't know what diseases you will cure?" Old Jack asked with an expectant look.

"Hehe, I will also treat some minor diseases, flesh wounds, burns, knife wounds, some minor poisoning, these are not on the table at all" Wang Xiaode said with some embarrassment.

Wang Xiaode's seemingly plain and modest words fell into the ears of Old Jack, but they were like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, which could treat burns and knife wounds, these two things alone were terrible things, you must know that in Old Jack's image, in addition to asking the church priest to perform divine treatment, only he survived. And this kind of healing magic usually requires 10 gold coins, which are used by people who are at least above the status of a baron, even if they are barons, they are rarely used.

But Old Jack didn't say anything, just asked how to treat it, when he learned that Wang Xiaode had an alchemy potion called Fu Shui, he hoped to be able to see it, in fact, Old Jack's approach was a bit excessive for ordinary people, and the alchemy potion worth 10 gold coins was not an ordinary item.

However, Wang Xiaode didn't care, and immediately took out a prepared spring water rune water for him to drink, and Old Jack hesitated for a moment before drinking this black alchemy potion. It didn't take long for Old Jack to discover that the scar from his previous injury on his arm was beginning to fall off.

Such a miraculous effect couldn't help but make Old Jack admire, if there was such a potion back then, then maybe his daughter-in-law could also survive the fire.

"Your Excellency Mingde, please forgive Old Jack for his previous faux pas" Now I can't help Old Jack not bow his head, what kind of world is this, he understands very well, such an alchemist will be a great wealth for a lord. You must know that many wars have at least three layers of death from burns and secondary knife wound infections, and if such an alchemist joins, it can undoubtedly increase the lord's great combat power.

"Old Jack, what are you doing, hurry up" Wang Xiaode saw Old Jack saluting respectfully to himself, and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"We didn't know you were an alchemist, and we offended you once, it was our fault, if you have anything for us to do, we will do our best," Old Jack said sincerely.

Old Jack's words made Wang Xiaode grasp a very important word, and he also felt the high respect for the superior from Old Jack. In order to keep a low profile, he chose the most secure pharmacist identity.

From the following communication with Old Jack, Wang Xiaode gradually understood the meaning of alchemist, alchemist is a collection of all kinds of scientists and engineers in the language of modern society, they can not only invent and create, have knowledge that ordinary people do not have, but also can mass-produce all kinds of magic props, alchemy potions, alchemy machinery and so on.

And knowledge in this world is only unique to the upper nobles, it is difficult for commoners to learn, at most the nobles need helpers to pass down simple words and mathematics, so they can cultivate a noble butler.
