Chapter 162: Where to start?
The life of the locals feels similar to that of the villages and towns on the border of Kyushu, with people farming and doing business, from all walks of life.
The millet they planted, called Linggu, contains aura, the grade of aura is slightly higher than the air, which is beneficial to cultivation, but this is not the most important thing, the value of Linggu is mellow and delicious, and it is used to make all kinds of snacks, which can satisfy the taste buds and kill boredom.
Specifically, when the locals buy and sell, they will say, green, green, red, purple, etc., as well as large, small, round, long, and so on.
The domestic animals and poultry they raise also include cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese.
I just didn't see anyone on horseback. Occasionally, once or twice, I saw a little boy and a little girl, turning into a horse with spiritual power, riding and playing.
But there are those who ride in animal chariots.
The beast cart is very wide, generally speaking, up to three zhang wide and up to six zhang long, like a running house.
The demon beasts pulling the cart are mainly tigers, leopards, wolves and other fierce beasts.
The animal car is luxurious and very majestic. I heard from the locals that the people who owned the animal carts were all rich families, and there were either young masters and young ladies sitting in them, or the head of the house and the wife.
It's no wonder that the people I met along the way, no one thought that Yushan would be the young master of a big family, and the people who communicated with him shouted "young man, young man" to Yushan.
As for the glamorous and incomparable Feng Mei in the eyes of Yushan, as soon as she entered the crowd, she was overshadowed, such as a beautiful and charming woman like her, she was everywhere, but any young woman was not ugly. Moreover, there are more beautiful and moving women than Feng Mei, with different styles and characteristics, which is simply dazzling.
On the contrary, it is more conspicuous in the crowd, attracting a lot of attention, causing many young women to look at each other, and even some women deliberately pass by and smile, and then speak softly, take the initiative to talk, and flirt endlessly.
Along the way, Feng Mei muttered more than once or twice, "Childe, we have to get a beast cart as soon as possible, so that those people and dogs don't look down on people." ”
This statement is acceptable as a complaint, but it should not be true.
As everyone knows, raising the most ordinary beast car requires at least one hundred and eighty low-grade spirit crystals per month. Every day, the demon beast pulling the cart consumes at least one, and the driver pays at least five coins.
With the total net worth of Yushan and Fengmei, four lower-grade spirit crystals, they can only plan to buy, four Linggu dim sum, or spirit fruits and the like.
In the Sanctuary, the lower grade spirit crystal is the lowest transaction payment currency unit, and there is no spending half a spirit crystal or half a change spirit crystal, this is said.
After passing through a few villages and towns, Yushan and Feng Mei felt the deepest in their hearts that they were too poor.
Pondering and meditating on the mountain, a way to make money.
Farming, no land. The land is in the name of the locals.
Doing business, no paving. There is no such thing as renting in the local area, but all the people who have shops are self-operated.
There is very little work to do as a coolie. Just imagine, in a place where everyone can use soul power and spiritual power to move things, how much hard work can be done.
Being a groom, being a maid, in fact, is not necessarily necessary, it is just a big family talking about pomp.
To put it mildly, in this kind of place full of beautiful women, there is no market for prostitutes.
There is a profession that is very popular, and that is to serve as a guard in the nursing home.
But this profession has requirements for strength levels, at least first-level generals.
And it's extremely risky.
It is completely in a state of "no **", who has great power and strong strength, who is the boss, has a lot of money in his hands, and occupies a large territory, so fights between families are very common, and fights are fought to the death, and a group of people do not give up, and the advantage is to fully inhibit population growth.
Above the commoners, for the small family. Above, it is a medium family. Further up, for the big family.
Above the big family, it is the highest mountain peak in this village and town area, and the peak master.
Under each peak master, there is a group of family vassals.
The headquarters of the peak lord has elders, deacons, and disciples. There are not many people, all of them are masters, and they can be described as elite soldiers.
However, whenever there is a conflict between the peak master of this peak and the peak master of the other peak, when there is a war, he will send people from his affiliated families to participate in the war.
Now that the mountain is clear, those black-robed people, blue-robed people, and purple-robed people who are sent to deal with the Caolu Peak station are nothing more than those under the Youdian, Qingdian, and Purple Palaces, under the banner of a certain peak master, under the responsibility of a certain elder, and from a certain family, and the escort team.
And it's just the escort team of some small families, and even the escort team of the middle family has not reached, because there is no captain at the level of a second-level general.
After knowing this, Yushan is worried about making money in the near future, and the safety of the Caolufeng station and the Kyushu border in the long run.
So much so that lately I have been very depressed.
Fortunately, the spirit is waiting for the girl in red, and the body is waiting for Mei'er, and it will be released when it is time to release, so as not to suffer depression.
Feng Mei has long since stopped wearing sexy red armor to show off outside, and has changed into a maid dress from a local family, dressed in plain clothes.
In this way, it sets off the status of the young master who controls the mountain, a declining family, wandering, and down-and-out young master.
However, there is a local saying that says, "The down-and-out young master is not as good as a dog." ”
This is not without reason. Just imagine, a family will decline, either it can't bear the pressure of debt, or the enemy family is very powerful, so the down-and-out young master is either carrying a debt or hatred, which is comparable to the life of an ordinary family.
I saw a gray-haired old man from a distance, sitting alone on a stone pier under a big tree to enjoy the shade, and the young man in white trotted over with the plain-clothed girl, intending to chat with the old man and inquire about the local situation.
When he came to the old man, he bowed to the mountain.
The old man smiled, first glanced at the plain-clothed maid, and then looked the white-clothed young man up and down.
Yushan greeted respectfully, "Hello old man!"
The old man smiled, raised his buttocks, and made a pretense, not planning to get up at all, and responded in his mouth, "Hello little master!"
Seeing this, Yushan relaxed himself, became more casual, and said with a smile: "The younger generation has just come here, and I am not familiar with the place, so I want to inquire about the situation from the old gentleman, and I bother the old gentleman to introduce the younger generation." ”
The old man turned his gaze to the stone pier next to him, and motioned for the young man in white to sit down and speak.
Yushan nodded in thanks, walked to the stone pier, and sat down generously.
Feng Mei followed the mountain and stood silently behind her.
The old man said loudly: "The little young master wants to inquire about something, just ask, but whoever the old man knows, he will definitely know everything." ”
Yushan leaned forward, put his hands on his knees, nodded and smiled at the old man, and said, "Thank you, old man." May I ask you, old man, does this area belong to the Qingdian Temple?"
The old man smiled and said, "Little Master wants to become a disciple of the Green Palace?"
Yushan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
The old man laughed twice, and then said: "Listen to the old man's advice, the little young master is still young, don't be ambitious, your ambition can be in the Qingdian, but at the moment, you have to start step by step." ”
"Please give me some advice. Yushan took out a pot of Linggu brew and handed it to the old man.
The old man squinted his eyes at the wine jug, reached out to take it, unscrewed the lid of the jug, approached his nose and sniffed it, then smiled brightly, and nodded again and again, "Pure brewing from Linggu, the wine is good!"
Then the old man couldn't wait to take a sip.
As soon as the wine was in his mouth, the old man closed his eyes slightly, and slowly swallowed it little by little, revealing a look of enjoyment.
After taking a sip, the old man hurriedly closed the lid and tightened it. Then put the flask under your clothes and hide it in your arms.
The old man's gaze turned to the white-clothed young man, showed a smile, smiled kindly, and said in a loud voice: "The Holy Clan's world, the southwest, a radius of one hundred thousand miles, all belong to the scope of the Qingdian. There are nine peaks under the Qingdian, the nine peaks are named after the nine stars of the Big Dipper, starting from the southwesternmost edge close to the Black Forest, in order of shaking light peak, Kaiyang peak, Yinyuan peak, Dongming peak, Yuheng peak, Tianquan peak, Tianji peak, Tianxuan peak, Tianshu peak. ”
"From the Shaking Light Peak to the Qingdian, the distance is millions of miles, and every 100,000 miles is a peak. The nine peaks are not equal in status, among them, the Shaking Light Peak is the lowest, and in turn, the Tianshu Peak is the highest, and the Qingdian is located at the top of the Tianshu Peak. ”
"Our place is located in the middle of the range of Shaking Light Peak and the range of Kaiyang Peak, to the west, to Shaking Light Peak, to the east, to Kaiyang Peak. If the young master wants to enter the Green Palace, he has to go west and enter the Shaking Light Peak first. If the young master has an acquaintance, it's another matter. ”
Yushan nodded while listening, and after the old man finished speaking, he asked out loud: "I don't know, what is the place to the east and north of the Qingdian?"
The old man looked at the young man in white, and after a while, he replied: "The Qingdian is two million miles to the east, to the sea, and the Qingdian is to the north, to the Qinglong River, a million miles. Jiangnan Palace, also known as Jiangnan Palace, dominates the south of the Qinglong River, the Jiangnan region - three million miles from the west to the east and two million miles from the north to the south. ”
After listening to Yushan, he was thinking in his heart, it seems that the master of Jiangnan Palace is the king who is above the hall master.
After thinking about it, Yushan made a decision in his heart, and was ready to go straight to Jiangnan Palace, starting from the location of the king.
Then he bid farewell to the old man and went west in the sight of the old man.
After walking more than thirty miles to the west, Yushan and Fengmei turned to the north. The reason why he did this was so as not to be seen by the old man, and the old man was worried, so he shouted that the little young master was going in the wrong direction.
Feng Mei said loudly: "Childe, do you want to summon the Sky Flame Beast as a mount?"
He turned his head and said, "It's too ostentatious! Besides, I can't control it yet." ”
Feng Mei continued: "Childe can try it and use the soul control technique." ”
Yu Shan shook his head, "After breaking through the Spirit Realm, I didn't think about doing this, but the third-order demon beast-level Sky Flame Beast, how could it not resist and let me cast a soul control spell on it." ”
Feng Mei gritted her teeth, turned her heart sideways, and said: "Mei'er went in and beat it down, see if it is obedient." ”
Yushan stopped, "Mei'er is sure?"
Feng Mei replied: "Fight and see." ”
