Chapter 6 The County Town

Bai Yang used a steel helmet to fill some water in the stream, found a few stones and built a simple stove on the flat, and put the steel helmet on top for an interview.

Secretly took out his lighter and lit the fire with a "snap", and after a short time, I saw Zhu Yan and Fu Tong come back with a large bundle of dry firewood, and it happened that the hay collected by Hu Zhi was enough, and several people chatted around the fire cooking jerky.

"Fu Tong, Hu Zhi, this is a bit of jerky, you eat some first, boil it for a while, and then drink some broth."

Seeing Fu Tong and Hu Zhi staring at the dried meat on the side, their eyes glowing green, Bai Yang took the initiative to take out some and let them make up for it first, feeling that the two of them hadn't eaten for a long time.

In fact, Bai Yang really guessed correctly, it is true that he has not eaten for a long time, let alone eaten meat. At this age, they are the time to grow their bodies, they are already digested well and hungry quickly, but today they walked for another afternoon, plus they haven't eaten a full meal for more than a month, and they really belong to the kind that has eaten the last meal without the next meal.

It's just that the two of them have stronger self-control, if ordinary people would have started grabbing it a long time ago.

"Brother Yang, how embarrassing this is, then the two of us are welcome."

I didn't see the politeness, and I didn't let go of the meat that I grabbed and handed over. Bai Yang and Zhu Yan looked at each other and smiled.

Bai Yang asked, "Brother Fu Tong, can't you have enough to eat in your village?" Why don't you go into the mountains to hunt, this area is mountainous and forested, there should be a lot of animals in it, and it's okay to hunt some wild boars with some people, right? ”

"Brother Yang, at first glance, you are not a local. In our area, there are a lot of things to eat in the forest, but there are also many places that kill people! Swamps, poisons, bears, wolves, tigers and the like. Our village used to organize hunting, and either the wolves died, or they fell into the swamp, or they were poisoned by eating unclean things, and not even half of the people who came back.

There are no doctors in the village, and many people are watching in front of them and slowly closing their eyes, do you say that it is worth it to take your life for a little food? ”

Hearing Bai Yang ask, Fu Tong didn't have any intention of eating meat, so he chatted with Bai Yang.

"The life of the common people now is too difficult, this year is getting drier and drier year by year, and the landlord's family wants no less land tax. The imperial court has always said that there is relief food, but it is also said that there has not been a grain of rice for so many years. Now the common people don't see a doctor when they are sick, it all depends on boiling, and after the autumn harvest, they don't even have enough seeds for the spring of the second year, so how can they be willing to eat it. Hey......"

Looking at the various current situations that Fu Tong said, in fact, Bai Yang himself can understand it. Sky Blue Star has been the world of rich and powerful people everywhere since ancient times, and in that era, there were actually three, six, nine and so on. Especially this feudal social background, this kind of thing is vividly embodied.

It's too difficult to get up from the bottom and live a good life, after all, there is such a place at the top of the pyramid, and if you go up, it means that someone will come down and who will come down? No one wants to be the one who comes down, so everyone can only fight against the one who wants to go up.

It's like you want to go up against all the people at the top of the pyramid, and the people who climb up can be described as rare.

If you want to become a person at the top of the pyramid, the right time and place are indispensable, and to put it bluntly, this is fate.

But through the conversation with Fu Tong and Hu Zhi, Bai Yang also has a more comprehensive and intuitive understanding of the present, and also makes his mentality and his goals more firm.

Listen to the chirps and look at the twinkling stars in the night sky. When you walk in, you may hear Bai Yang muttering silently: "One sheep, two sheep, three sheep ......." "The crowd gradually entered the dream.

Early in the morning, Bai Yang woke up in his biological clock, and it seemed that his watch was exactly six o'clock.

Turning his head to look left and right, he saw Zhu Yan and himself sleeping next to each other, Fu Tong and Hu Zhi pouting their buttocks like prawns and sleeping with their heads covered.

Bai Yang smiled, these people are really okay, they fell asleep without any skills on the first day they met, how to say that they are also in the wild, what if a beast comes over and takes them away.

Of course, there is also Bai Yang, Bai Yang feels no problem, if it is good under normal circumstances, he has to arrange good people to take turns to keep vigil.

Turning over, patting the withered grass and dirt on his body, Bai Yang put some withered grass and dry firewood in the little sparks on the side, and warmed up the broth left over from last night.

"Gollum...... Grunt...... With the sound of the broth boiling, the three of them lazily smelled the aroma of the meat and opened their eyes.

"Are you hungry? Get up and wash up on the side of the stream, and you will be able to eat it immediately. ”

"Okay, Brother Yang."

"Brother Yang, I know."

"Brother Yang is really a little hungry when he says this, and he will be fine right away."

Watching the three of them finish washing, a few people cleaned up after eating, and set off.

On the rugged and winding mountain road, four young people were talking and laughing.

"Brother Yang, have you ever been to the county seat?"

"Brother Yang, have you ever seen a big official?"

"Brother Yang, you said that you have seen an iron box that can carry people run faster than a horse, can you take me to see it?"

"Brother Yang, have you ever seen the Hu people? I heard that the Hu people are particularly vicious, and they will eat people when they are hungry, how can there be such people, are they still human? ”

Bai Yang took these three curious babies along the way to explain all kinds of things, and sometimes told them a little about what they had seen and heard in later generations, which raised all the interests of the three of them, and all kinds of questions bombarded Bai Yang in turn, making him cry and laugh.

However, a few people have the feeling of talking and laughing, and they are not so tired when walking, and they are all full of energy.

Beginning in the morning of the third day, the road became wider and wider, and it was time to reach the official road. It didn't take long to see people hurrying away, and at last slowly it began, and every now and then some people galloped past on horseback, leaving a cloud of dust behind.

During the journey, Bai Yang noticed that Fu Tong was paying more attention to some people who passed by, and at first Bai Yang thought that he was surprised to see many people. Slowly Bai Yang felt wrong, and Fu Tong seemed to be looking for someone. Bai Yang asked Fu Tong, Fu Tong was vague and didn't want to say anything, so Bai Yang didn't care anymore.

The four of them marched until noon, when they suddenly saw a large city standing in front of them in the distance, and at first they could not feel its size, until the four of them gradually approached and slowly felt its majesty.

The city wall more than 50 meters high is like a moat separating the outside of the city from the inside, and people only feel their insignificance when they stand under the city wall. The city gate of more than 10 meters high, can accommodate six carriages in parallel with the avenue, and the city gate is written directly above the three typing "Changshan County".

In front of the city wall, there is a moat with a width of more than 20 meters, and the moat rushes bravely.

Looking at the people walking in and out of the city gate, feeling the traces left by the years on this city, Bai Yang was full of emotion.

"Brother Yang, this is Changshan County? It's so big, so spectacular! Zhu Yan looked at the city in front of him, his mouth was so big that he didn't close it for a long time.

"Brother Jiu, this is too big! Look at the nails at the city gate, they are bigger than a human head. Hu Zhi asked, taking Fu Tong's arm.

Only Fu Tong is better, he may want to maintain the majesty of his ninth brother in front of the tenth brother, but he just stared at the city, but his fluctuating heart can still be seen in the throat swallowing up and down.

Bai Yang was actually shocked, there were very few big cities of this scale in later generations. The needs of urban planning, development and utilization, it would be good to leave an old city gate, and it was the first time he had seen this kind of large-scale city.

Although there were many high-rise buildings in the city in later generations, the ancients were able to build such a large city with their hands and wisdom, and you can think about how difficult it was.

Bai Yang turned his head to look at the three of them, and waved his big hand: "Let's go, let's go into the city." As he spoke, he strode into the city.
