Volume 1 Frontier Land Chapter 11 Not My Race (I)

A slightly solemn autumn wind suddenly swept by, blowing a lot of withered yellow withered grass in the air and scattering.

The sun in the sky was also a little softer than before, hitting Lu Jin, who was half-squatting and staring intently at an unknown flying insect in front of him.

At this moment, he was squinting his eyes slightly, his right hand was clenched into a fist, and his eyebrows were slightly locked, as if he was doing something very important. It's not uncommon for people in the Lama tribe to see this kind of situation these days, but no one can guess what the divine envoy is doing, maybe he is trying to cultivate back his own mana.

As the method of proposing salt from the cliff stone worked, Lu Jin's position in the Lama tribe was completely solidified. Although he couldn't give orders like a few important people, everyone had a heartfelt awe of him.

And after teaching all the methods of extracting salt to the people of the Lama Division, Lu Zhen had no interest in meddling in this matter. After all, this kind of thing is just a manual work, as long as people are willing to work hard, they will continue to produce salt to meet the needs of all.

Now, with the exception of the men who had to go out hunting, and some of the women and old men who were milking and grazing, the rest of the ministry was engaged in this work, including those who had been captured by the Han Chinese with Lu Jin, and they were still doing the most tiring and heavy work.

In this regard, Lu Zhen couldn't intercede for them, after all, their identities were here. It is precisely because there is such a group of free and easy-to-use laborers who are doing their best to do things, and the salt production of the Laha Department is really not low, and in just over a month, it has produced enough salt for all people to eat for a year, and this number is still increasing.

Seeing this, Lu Zhen kindly reminded Hehu'er again, why not sell the excess salt to the neighboring tribes, so as to exchange for something that everyone needs more?

He was overjoyed when he woke him up, and then sent people to peddle it around. In just two days, the Rahab had exchanged their salt for hundreds of cattle, sheep and horses—a far more valuable salt than the ubiquitous livestock of the steppe tribes, who had long been short of salt.

Because of his words, he gave the Lahe Department a lot of benefits, and Lu Jin's status was higher in the eyes of everyone. But he himself was very unimpressed, for he had recently turned his mind on other, more important things.

After being caught by them that day, Lu Zhen always had a question in his heart - was the strange phenomenon that happened when he dodged the attacks of those Mongolian people that day and took the opportunity to kill one of them his own delusion, or was it really something?

On that day, he clearly felt that the opponent's movements were suddenly slowing down, and he took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's movements to slow down and hurt the enemy. But after that, this strange feeling never appeared again, and he gave birth to the illusion that all this was just his own.

In order to verify this, in these days of free time, Lu Zhen constantly recalled the original incident and thought about every detail, in order to find an answer that satisfies him.

At this moment, Lu Jin, who was staring at the little insect, was trying to repeat his actions that day, but that nervous state of mind could not be reproduced at this time.

But after a few attempts, when he clenched his right fist again and stared at the bug, the strange feeling came back to him. Everything around suddenly became extremely quiet at a certain moment, the autumn wind that was constantly blowing suddenly stopped, and the insects that were still flying in front of them also suddenly paused, as if they were pulled by an invisible silk thread, and the movement became extremely slow, as if every flap of its wings had to be separated by a moment, but its body did not fall to the ground because of this, and it was still flying in the air with the trajectory just now.

This scene is like watching a slow-motion movie, every frame of the picture is slowly and clearly presented in front of Lu Jin's eyes, which makes him feel a burst of surprise in his heart - he has really obtained this magical ability that can slow down the flow of time around him!

But in a moment, everything was back to normal, the wind continued to blow, and the worm flew rapidly again...... It's as if nothing happened before.

But this time, Lu Zhen clearly knew that everything was not his own delusion. As long as you concentrate and clench your right fist, the time around you will suddenly slow down, but the amazing thing is that you are in the center are not limited by this and can do things at a normal pace. That day, he was able to kill a much stronger Mongolian man at once, obviously relying on this magical ability.

Lu Zhen is actually still somewhat familiar with this ability, because in some of the single-player masterpieces he has played, some protagonists have such abilities. For example, in "Dishonored" and "Max Payne", there is such a performance, as long as you use the ability, you can temporarily control the time, so as to quickly kill the enemy.

Lu Zhen really couldn't think of it, he thought that he had just imagined the ability to really get it, and this might be the benefit brought by the crossing. After all, time travel is the greatest disruption and disruption of time and space, and abilities like this are nothing compared to that.

But it's so useful to me, and once you've mastered it, it's always good to save your life, if not to mention killing like a character in the game. The only thing that made him a little unhappy was that the ability required him to concentrate his entire mind to trigger, and it wasn't too controlled, and if he was slightly distracted, it would return to normal. It is only when life is under great threat that its power is truly exerted.

But this unhappiness is nothing compared to another annoyance. After spending more than a month in the Lama Division, Lu Zhen was tired of life here, and he wanted to leave this backward place.

As a young man who is accustomed to the life of the afterlife, the days of doing nothing all day long, rising at sunrise and resting at sunset, and almost no recreational activities are too boring. And this is not the most serious, the most serious thing is that he always feels a little out of place with these Mongolian people.

Although everyone he met was respectful to him, the two sides were still a little estranged and isolated, and it was impossible for them to become true friends. With these people, Lu Zhen was surrounded by a deep sense of loneliness all the time, which made him want to leave here and go to the Ming Dynasty to see.

Another reason that prompted him to think this way was the situation of the captives. Except for Lu Jin, the oracle, everyone else became slaves of the Mongolian people, not only did they have to do the heaviest work every day, ate the least and worst food, but were also insulted and beaten by the people at every turn, with almost no dignity.

There were even a few times when a few people were almost beaten to death because of a small mistake. If it weren't for Lu Jin's timely intercession, I'm afraid that in the past month or so, five or six people would have died at the hands of the Mengren.

After seeing a few such incidents, Lu Jin's original idea of harmonious coexistence between the two ethnic groups was gone, and the original ethnic integration mentioned in the textbook was just a beautiful lie. Perhaps in later generations, with the progress of civilization, and the Han nationality itself is strong enough and tolerant enough, so that all ethnic groups can be brothers and sisters as a family, but now all this is simply a joke.

It is the sentence that is not my race, its heart must be different, so as to truly reflect the relationship between the two sides today.

Lu Jin didn't want to see his own people being hurt like this, but he really couldn't do anything about it. He was even worried that he would be treated the same in the future, so leaving the place was the only option.

Just how do you get out of here? Although the whole Rahab was very respectful of him, they were also wary. Just look at the fact that when he left the group and came to the side, there were still two or three herdsmen following him intentionally or unintentionally, and he could know that they were all sent by Hehu'er and others to monitor him.

Glancing back at the three herdsmen who swept their eyes at him from time to time, a wry smile appeared on Lu Jin's lips, and he didn't know what to do to get out of here.

After a while, he could only sigh and decide to stay here for the time being, and see what could change in the future.

As soon as he clapped his hands, Lu Zhen got back on the horse, urging the horse towards the tribal settlement - living here was still a bit rewarding, at least after more than a month, his riding skills had made great progress, and he was able to ride his horse on the grassland with ease.

But as soon as he got to the place and jumped off his horse, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him, and many herdsmen were secretly looking at him from the side, but when he turned his eyes to them, they all looked away, and did not dare to make direct contact with him.

"What's going on?" Lu Zhen muttered in his heart, but he didn't have a clue. He could see that these people were not hostile to him, and it was clear that they were not coming for him.

Just when he didn't know whether to pull a Meng person to inquire about the situation, a figure quickly jumped over from the side, and grabbed one of Lu Jin's hands, who was completely unprepared: "Brother Lu, this time you have to save Xie Laoqi!" ”

"Ah......" Lu Jin was startled at first, and then saw that the person who suddenly grabbed him was Cao Bing, who had been saved by himself before, and at this moment he looked anxious, and he also had some fresh wounds on his body.

And just when Lu Zhen came back to his senses and wanted to ask him carefully, three or four more people rushed over and pressed Cao Bing to the ground: "Bold, you dare to offend the divine envoy!" So saying, he dragged him up and took him to the side.

"What do you do? Let me go! Lu Zhen was even more shocked when he saw this, and immediately asked.

At the same time, a terrible scream came from afar, which made Lu Jin's heart suddenly tighten......
