Chapter 020: Temporary Settlement
Ping An looked at He Shannon again, and then said, "The manpower over there in our medicine field has been very tight, why don't you go over and help first?" In this way, you will have something to do, and your heart will be a little more steady. Most importantly, you can use this time to plan your way forward. What the lord means is that if you really have to leave in the future, the lord will never force you to stay. ”
"This ......" Ye Feihua couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this.
He Shannon on the side was also stunned.
Ping'an's words were like a hammer, sticking to the hearts of Ye Feihua and He Shannon, and the two people's originally uncertain minds were suddenly inexplicably tamped, and the two of them glanced at each other, their minds were racing, and they quickly made a decision.
"How?" Ping An looked at Ye Feihua with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"No problem!" Ye Feihua nodded, then bowed slightly, and said gratefully: "Ping'an, thank you!" ”
"Huh! You're welcome! You are welcome to join us! It's a pleasure that we can work together in the future! Ping An smiled very happily.
Ping An paused, and then said, "I'll take you to the medicine field tomorrow." ”
"No problem!" Ye Feihua chuckled softly.
These days, although Ye Feihua and He Shannon are calm on the surface, they are tormented by insecurity and confusion deep down. Although the world is so big that there must be a place to live, but if the two of them really want to take a step, they are at a loss and have no way to get out. Now that I can stay in Shu's house to do things, first of all, I don't have the embarrassing and uneasy feeling of eating rice. If things are done well, it can even slightly relieve the psychological burden caused by the grace of the Shu family. Secondly, use this time to further understand the situation outside and make some targeted preparations. Thinking of all this, Ye Feihua and He Shannon seemed to have unloaded an invisible burden, and their mood became unprecedentedly relaxed.
There is a fence gate in the northwest corner of the small garden in the backyard.
Although Ye Feihua and He Shannon touched this fence gate every day, they never opened it.
Early the next morning, Ye Feihua and He Shannon followed Ping An and walked out of the fence gate.
Ping'an pointed to the long mountain ridge on the west side of the valley and said, "That's Wangxiang Ridge!" After the Wangxiang Ridge to the west, until the hot spring pass, there are high mountains and dangerous ravines and reckless jungles. When people who go west arrive at Wangxiangling, they can't help but turn their heads, look to the east, and look at their hometown. The medicine field is in Liuliwan, which is the place where the Liuli River turns on the east side of Wangxiangling. There are many monks coming and going in Qingniu Town, and there are few large brute beasts around it, let alone demonic beasts. You were really unlucky that day, and you encountered a tiger and wolf beast in Wangxiangling. ”
"We finally got out of the jungle and finally came to this world, maybe God will leave us a little memorial." He Shannon laughed.
Outside the fence gate is the field, where a road winds into the distance.
In the fields on both sides of the road, some crops are grown. One of the fields was planted with rapeseed. At this time, the rape flowers bloom, and the eyes are golden, and it is charming.
"That's right!" Ping An seemed to remember something, glanced back at Ye Feihua and He Shannon, and advised: "If there is nothing important in the future, you had better go to the center of the town less." This Qingniu Town, it is estimated that it will not be peaceful for another year or two! ”
"What's wrong? What happened? He Shannon asked.
"More than two months ago, a colorful lightning bolt appeared in the sky over the hot springs. This is a miracle that has never been seen before! Qingniu Town is the closest Terran town to Hot Spring Pass, and now more and more people are coming from the east. They probably think that there are rare treasures in Hot Springs, and they are all going to hunt for treasures. A large number of people and horses gathered in Qingniu Town, and various frictions continued to breed. Strife together will inevitably affect mortals! Ping An said.
"Peace, who are you from the east?" Ye Feihua asked.
"It's all people flying around, either monks or magicians." Ping An said.
"Aren't those monks very powerful?" Ye Feihua asked.
"Not really!" Ping An looked up at the sky and said, "When they fight, they almost always fight until the sky is dark. If you run into those powerful monks, it will be a landslide and the earth will crack, and the river will flow backwards! ”
"Is it that powerful?" He Shannon looked at Ping'an, his eyes full of incredulity.
"Yes!" Ping An nodded heavily.
Looking at Ye Feihua and He Shannon's unbelievable appearances, Ping An smiled honestly and said, "It's so powerful!" However, you don't have to worry, as long as you don't provoke the monks, those monks will not take the initiative to attack mortals. When monks fight, there is often a lot of movement, so they usually choose to fight in an inaccessible place to try to avoid harming mortals. However, this time it may be an exception. Compared with the past, there were suddenly a lot more people coming from the east, and they all stopped in Qingniu Town, and there were many people, and it was inevitable that there would be conflicts. Conflict together, how can they take care of mortals. ”
"Peace, why do those monks fly?" He Shannon asked.
"The monk is cultivating a kind of fighting spirit, and it is said that when he cultivates to a certain level, he can fly with the help of magic ornaments. If you cultivate to a higher level, you can fly with qi. Ping An said.
"By the way, Ping'an, why don't you become a monk?" He Shannon asked curiously.
"I don't have that blessing, I wasn't elected by the Duchy Sect back then." Ping An said dejectedly.
"Not chosen?" Ye Feihua's eyes flashed and asked, "Is there a threshold for being a monk?" ”
"Of course!" Ping An sighed and said, "The selection of the Principality Sect is very strict, and mortals will only be selected if they have the potential to cultivate Dou Qi. ”
"Actually, it's good to be an ordinary person! As long as we treat everything around us attentively, we will find that each has its own wonderful! Ye Feihua said.
"Yes! Now I'm relieved! As long as life is peaceful, prosperous and healthy, whether it is a monk or an ordinary mortal, it is the same, and it is no different. Ping An smiled innocently.
Ye Feihua stopped talking.
Ping'an and He Shannon also fell silent.
After a while, He Shannon suddenly asked, "Ping'an, can you tell us how the Principality Sect selects monks?" ”
"Every three years, there is a selection of monks appointed by the Principality's sect, and mortals between the ages of six and eighteen can participate. However, the requirements are too strict, almost one out of two hundred mortals! Ping An said.
"Really?" After Ye Feihua heard this, she couldn't help but be taken aback. According to Ping An, those monks are all elites in a hundred.
"By the way, if you have made a contribution to the city guard, you can also enter the sect of the principality and cultivate your fighting spirit. Once a mortal has passed the age of eighteen, he can no longer participate in the screening. The two little brothers should be over twenty years old, right? If you are interested in cultivation, you can only try your luck in the future by going to the City Guards to see if you have a chance to gain merit and enter the Principality Sect exceptionally. Ping An said.
Ye Feihua smiled and asked, "What are the conditions for joining the City Guard?" Also, what kind of credit do you have to make? ”
"The conditions for joining the City Guard are not harsh, as long as you are strong and strong. As for meritorious service, there are countless barbarian beasts in the Star Continent, and brute beasts often come out of the jungle in groups and harass mortal towns. If you kill enough brutes, you can make a merit. Ping An said.
"Speaking of the City Guard, a question comes to mind. It is mentioned in the books that almost every town has its own city guard. Peace, are there often wars between towns? And those principalities, are there also frequent wars between principalities? He Shannon asked.
Ping An sighed slightly and replied: "The Terran Race in the Star Continent has developed agriculture and commerce, and lives a rich and comfortable life, and there are few wars in mortal towns. As for the wars between the principalities, for various reasons, there will definitely be wars. In front of the monks, the power of mortals is as small as ants. Therefore, when there was a war between the principalities, the principalities sent monks to fight. ”
"Plenty of food and clothing, abundance and comfort! In this way, it is good to be an ordinary mortal, full of happiness! He Shannon laughed.
"yes!" Ping An nodded and said, "As long as you don't take the initiative to provoke the monks, mortals are basically safe and happy." If you see the monks fighting, then quickly hide away, otherwise, if it is really affected, you can only accept your fate. ”
Hearing Ping'an say this, Ye Feihua couldn't help but think thoughtfully.
Ye Feihua sighed lightly and said, "Whether it is to become a monk or to be an ordinary mortal, stay away from strife, and live a rich and peaceful life, this is the most important thing. ”
From the backyard of Shu's house to Wangxiangling, it is about five kilometers away, and the scenery along the way is breathtaking.
Ping'an, Ye Feihua, and He Shannon chatted while hurrying, and felt that it didn't take long for them to arrive at Wangxiangling.
The Shujia medicine field is in the place where the Liuli River turns around, and it is surrounded by a wooden stake fence, which is hundreds of acres.
There is a grove next to the medicine field, and there is a small wooden house on the side of the forest.
At this time, in front of the cabin were standing two middle-aged men with honest faces and simple clothes.
"I've seen the peace steward!" When the two middle-aged men saw that peace was coming, they hurriedly bowed down.
Ping'an turned around and pointed at Ye Feihua and He Shannong, and said to the two middle-aged men: "Ah Fu, Ah Chang, you don't have to work so hard in the future." These two little brothers are new here, and they will work with you in the medicine field in the future. ”
"Hello! Please take care of it in the future! Ye Feihua and He Shannon bowed slightly.
The two middle-aged men didn't respond, but hurriedly replied to Ye Feihua and He Shannon, with very restrained expressions.
At that moment, Ping An gave a brief introduction to both parties.
After the introduction, Ping An said to the middle-aged man named Ah Fu: "Ah Fu, the two of them have just arrived, you and Ah Changduo take them with you." ”
"Rest assured, we will." Ah Fu owes his body.
Ping'an looked at Ye Feihua again and said, "You still go back to live at night, as long as you do things well in the future, you can come over whenever you want during the day." ”
"We get it! Peace, rest assured! Ye Feihua nodded.
Ping An explained a few words to Ah Fu, and then turned and left.
Ye Feihua and He Shannong are quite familiar with the medicinal materials in the medicine field. These days, the two of them are not only reading and literacy, but also to understand the products and features of this world, no matter what books Ping An and Shu Xiangxiang brought, both of them read carefully, and there happened to be a book among them, illustrating and describing all kinds of medicinal materials.
After Ping'an left, Ah Fu and Ah Chang took Ye Feihua and He Shannon into the medicine field.
