Chapter 30: Neal City

At dawn, Zhu Jue and his party finally walked out of the Enchanted Forest and came to the outskirts of Neil City.

The sky is not yet clear, and only the outline of the city ahead can be faintly seen.

"Next, at two o'clock this afternoon, the Skye River Stone Bridge will assemble and go to the farm to hunt the Pumpkins. ”

A group of strangers swaggering through the market is undoubtedly eye-catching, not to mention that they are here to hunt for treasure, and they are not here to fight with others, so they have to avoid fighting.

You must know that the treasures in the fantasy dream are hidden in various places, even a gentleman does not dare to say that he knows the world well, and if he wants to ensure the maximization of benefits, it is the most reasonable plan to go his own way without revealing his identity.

The gathering time chosen by the gentleman is undoubtedly to leave time for Zhu Jue to act, and the others have no objection to this, because according to the rules that the gentleman said, before the spiritual power is perceived, the newcomer can only survive in the fantasy dream for three days, and once this period is exceeded, the spirit will be damaged.

Neil was the first city outside of the Enchanted Forest, and they had to get supplies here if they wanted to travel further afield, including buying horses and food.

Therefore, after the gentleman announced his free movement, the black swan and the others immediately set off for Neil City, only Zhu Jue remained in place, found a stone on the side of the road and sat down, looking at the wide field next to him.

A large area of farmland stretched into the distance, and the crops in the fields were growing quite well, and even one or two rice plants were swaying in the wind on the side of the road where Zhu Jue was.

I picked the green ears of rice, picked them out one by one, and then threw them into the nearby mud, inexplicably looking forward to what they would look like when they grew into a piece.

Take a deep breath, the world has not yet been polluted by reinforced concrete, the breath is full of the vitality of nature, and the cool morning breeze is coming, blowing away all the fatigue accumulated in the forest late at night.

Whoop~whoa~

Wind chimes whizz through the fields, and the kettle around its neck swayed from side to side, not much.

When he got closer, he jumped up, plunged directly into Zhu Jue's arms, and pushed the kettle out as if offering treasures.

"Haha~ I knew you could do it. ”

Rubbing the belly of the wind chime, Zhu Jue unscrewed the lid of the pot, and sure enough, it was already full, and the familiar sweet smell overflowed, so that Zhu Jue couldn't help but tilt his neck and take a sip.

He didn't choose to go to the rodent tribe to get the moonshine wine himself, but gave this task to the wind chimes, the reason is simple, he didn't just come this time, he couldn't do anything like fishing, and if he broke away from the team at that time, he would inevitably attract the attention of gentlemen and others.

Every time the gentleman and the others came, they tried to please those guys, and finally brushed their prestige into friendliness, if they knew that they didn't say a word, they grabbed a pot...... I guess it's going to be hated.

Oh~

Wind Chimes had two front paws on their stomachs, burping constantly, and the hair on their cheeks looked a little wet.

"How much have you drunk?"

Zhu Jue rubbed the belly of the wind chime three times left and right, and asked when he saw that his waist and abdomen were obviously bulging a lot.

The wind chime's response was also simple, he raised his paw and shook it, then turned around and shook it into Zhu Jue's backpack, his round head was exposed, and after a while, he closed his eyes again, only his mouth still made a "purring" sound.

Obviously, the stamina has come up.

Somewhere in the Enchanted Forest, there was an area densely populated with giant trees, as if an earthquake had just been hit, broken tree trunks were everywhere, and rodent monsters were lying all over the ground!

......

Moo~

A ploughing ox sits in the middle of the brick and stone street, and the wooden cart behind it is loaded with barrels and some crops, and the grocer in a short-sleeved kudzu shirt scolds and covers several fruit baskets placed in the doorway with gray cloth, and comes out of the hoe behind the door to drive away the old cow who is trying to encroach on fresh fruit.

Several children shouted loudly, each holding a branch in their hands, pretending to be warriors to "fight" each other, and a few of the more daring ones tried to poke the cow's buttocks with the end of the branch, which was undoubtedly one of the reasons why the cow was out of control.

Zhu Jue stood on the side of the iron pillar on the side of the street, this is the most primitive street lamp, which needs to be lit manually with a torch, and in his hand he is holding a fruit he just bought to gnaw on, the money left by the wild boar is the currency of this world, and when he bought the fruit, he also specially asked the purchasing power of gold coins in this world, and the result was that 1 gold coin can be worth about 2000 federal coins.

Sunlight streamed through the Italian-style flat roof, simple cornices and angular windows fell on his face, and when he looked up, he could see a few simple flower pots placed in the window frames, with unknown flowers that he could tell at first glance that they had been pulled from the field.

The temperature is a little high, but it's still warm.

It was already 8 a.m., and Zhu Jue had been wandering around Neil City for about an hour and a half.

Although he didn't quite understand why he could understand what was being said in the mouth of this world, Zhu Jue still took advantage of the time to solve some problems.

During this time, he learned the details of the location of the eastern garden of Neal City from the mouths of different people, and also asked the place where the prayer scroll of the church of Usa was issued, and how the town of Usa should pass from the city of Neil.

After solving these two problems, Zhu Jue wanted to go treasure hunting, but the problem was that he didn't know where the treasures were, and the gentleman had said that many of the treasures in the dream world were hidden in unexpected places, just like those pumpkin people, they were not cared for in the abandoned farmstead, and only those who came over would know how "grumpy" those pumpkins that looked good.

After thinking about it, Zhu Jue still decided to go to the trading market here, after all, it is a distribution center for goods, and the probability of good things appearing is always much greater than when he asks from door to door.

The bazaars of this era were still in a primitive state, with rudimentary wooden shelves with covered roofs in a circular shape in a specially divided open space in the western part of the city of Neil, and lined up along the road.

Most of the goods sold in these stalls are mainly food and fruits, vegetables and meat account for nearly sixty percent of the stalls, Zhu Jue couldn't stand the smell of meat, so he avoided a few meat stalls and set his sights on some stalls selling sundries.

However, just as he was about to go over for a walk, he unexpectedly found a black swan coming from the other side of the street, and quickly turned his head and sat on the wooden chair behind the stall under the puzzled gaze of a stall owner next to him.

"I'm a little tired from walking, borrow your chair and sit for a while, and buy you two carrots, no problem, right?"

He took out two copper coins and handed them to the stall owner, whose expression immediately improved a lot, and he handed over two washed carrots and continued to sell them.

The wind chime had woken up from the "hangover" at this time, returned to Zhu Jue's arms, glanced at Zhu Jue, who was gnawing on a carrot, leaned over and took a bite, chewed and quickly spit it out, and then slipped behind Zhu Jue and took out a wooden jar.

Naturally, it is filled with dried meat and small fish.

Zhu Jue is a very careful person many times, since he is coming to this world, he naturally can't carry anything that is incompatible with this world, so he also changed the container of the wind chime's rations in advance.

Help the wind chime open the can, but Zhu Jue's eyes stayed on the black swan who was communicating with a vendor over there, the two had been talking for nearly two minutes, and Zhu Jue had not seen her say a word since the first time he saw the black swan!

"Sir...... Sir?"

The voice of the stall owner next to him interrupted Zhu Jue's thoughts.

"Is there something wrong?"

Zhu Jue turned his head sideways and looked at him with some doubts.

"I wonder where you bought your food?"

The rations of the wind chimes are a good thing that Zhu Jue has specially selected on the Internet, and the price of a box is about 2,000 federal coins, which is not only nutritious, but also tastes very good, and this special meat aroma obviously attracts the stall owners next to him.

"Ancestral secret recipe, please eat. ”

Zhu Jue handed over a small dried fish, and then pointed to the black swan and asked,

"Do you know what the vendors over there are selling?"

"It was a traveling merchant who specialized in reselling goods from city to city, and did you not see the carriage behind him, which contained all his belongings...... Oh~ It's really delicious food, I want to buy some more from you, I don't know how the price is?"

The stall owners who set up stalls here every day are naturally well aware of the situation here, and they recognize the identity of the businessman who trades with the black swan just by scanning his eyes.

"Sorry, it's not in stock yet. ”

Casually prevaricating the stall owner, Zhu Jue looked at the black swan who was following the traveling merchant to the back of the carriage, thoughtful.
