The feudal era was actually a very strange era, the officials acquiesced to the fact that in the year of the great disaster, the common people ate people, as long as they did not rebel, then after the disaster subsided, these refugees were still good citizens. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The same is true of the people, who can kill their comrades with a sword, or even cook their children, and do not want to rebel. Even if you eat everything you can in the end, you will still die, but you will not take the initiative to rebel.

Just like the group of refugees surrounding Bishui Town, there are obviously more than 10,000 and thousands of strong men, and they can completely capture Bishui Town, and even knock down the towns around the Tiger Prison, and then become rogues.

They don't do that, and as long as there is hope, they will suffer in silence. Either continue to migrate to other places and pray for relief from the imperial court, or die on the way.

Also, no one is a fool, antagonizing the state is a dead end, and there are not a few real peasant uprisings in history that have been successful. or gain a temporary advantage, and in the end it will be wiped out by the imperial court.

"The official on the city wall, can you open the door and let Zhu in?" Zhu Cheng shouted under the city gate, hoping that the guards would open the door.

"Who's making noise here?" An officer in armor poked his head out, considering that he was wearing only iron armor, so he must have been a junior officer, right?

"Zhu Cheng of Shangyu County, Huiji, has been studying so far, it will be late, and he plans to go into the city to rest, but I don't know if the official can make it convenient?" Zhu Cheng arched his hand and pleaded.

"It turned out to be a scholar who traveled to study, and it was not indispensable for you to enter the city, but there were too many hungry people outside the city, and the city gate was not allowed to be opened easily under the orders of the county lieutenant and the county commander. If you don't dislike it, and you lower the hanging basket, how about you come up in the hanging basket? The other party saw that although Zhu Cheng was embarrassed, his spirit was good, and his literary quality was not like a refugee, so his attitude was better.

In the end, when a literati is popular, even if he is a scholar with no fame, he is somewhat preferential.

It is a very strange experience to sit in the hanging basket, the basket is not big, so you can stand in it, but as it slowly rises, it only feels like it is shaking and shaking, and Zhu Chengdu doubts whether it will fall. Fortunately, the city wall is not high, only more than four meters, and there is no danger to climb the wall.

"Feel free to be in the city, but because there are too many hungry people, it is inevitable that the price of food will be more expensive, I hope you have enough to wrap up." The officer pulled Zhu Cheng up the city wall, led him to the ground, and finally did not forget to warn him.

After all, in the officer's opinion, Zhu Cheng didn't look like he had too many entanglements, and it was even doubtful whether he had any entanglements.

"I'm bothered!" Zhu Cheng's valuable things, except for this ring head knife, are all installed in the system space, and if they are ridiculed, they will be ridiculed, but there is nothing to be ashamed of.

On the contrary, the soldiers of the feudal era were mostly described as ruffians, and in some cases worse than rogue bandits. If it's full of good things, God knows if they won't be beaten by them.

"Another point, although you claim to be from Shangyu County, Huiji County, please show the summons!" The officer finally reminded.

Zhu Cheng had already prepared for this, and he didn't know where to throw the book from his predecessor. Fortunately, when he opened the newbie gift package before, the system gave him a universal biography.

He handed the book over, though he didn't know what it was written on. But fortunately, when the officer took it and looked at it, he seemed to understand it, and as he looked deeper, his face became more cloudy.

"I didn't expect Your Excellency to be a descendant of the Zhu family, but it's disrespectful! There is no problem with the book, please take it back! The officer, with a somewhat flattering tone, handed back the summons.

"It's a special time, so it's good to be careful!" Zhu Cheng knew why he had such an attitude, and after adjusting his tone, he slowly replied.

It is true that this is the Central Plains, not Jiangnan, but the family is the family, and there will actually be some connection between the families. The Zhu family is one of the four major families in Jiangnan, even if the children of the collateral family are wronged outside, they will inevitably seek justice.

Obviously, this officer is just from a humble family, and he doesn't dare to offend the children of the family at all, so it is normal for his tone to be modest, and it is not impossible to exaggerate and directly flatter him!

After greeting the officer, Zhu Cheng officially stepped into this town. It's just that the residents of this town obviously have a natural fear of outsiders, and no one is willing to take the initiative to greet him at all.

In addition, there are tens of thousands of hungry people outside the city, and the residents of the city are unable to carry out their daily activities, and most of them simply stay at home with their doors closed, which may be the safest place for them.

The market has become very depressed due to the long period of closure, and occasionally some craftsmen come up with something to sell, which has nothing to do with food, or maybe they are also very hungry and have to come out to sell these crafts or goods, planning to exchange some food and go back to their stomachs.

It's just a pity that Zhu Cheng doesn't have much food, but he has so much consistent money, which he asked the system by the way in the accelerated state, and after learning that 1 point of life energy can be exchanged for consistent money, he ruthlessly exchanged it just in case.

After all, he didn't have a single five-baht coin on his body, except for the ring head knife......

"Staying or eating?" Bishui Town is not big, it is not difficult to find an inn, and it didn't take long to find an inn with a 'stay' sign.

"I stay and eat, but I don't know what to eat?" Zhu Cheng found a cushion and sat down.

In these years, there are no tables and chairs, the so-called dining table is a few low, the chair is a cushion, and the regular sitting is not sitting cross-legged, but sitting, which is the so-called kneeling sitting, and the taste is only known to those who have experienced it.

"The meat is gone, and there are still soup cakes to eat, but I don't know ...... guest officer," the shopkeeper said embarrassedly.

Also, I don't know how long it has been surrounded by tens of thousands of hungry people, and where are there so many ingredients in the city, and it is actually very good to be able to eat 'soup cakes', which are also called noodles.

"Well, serve me a bowl of soup cakes! In addition, I want to stay here for a night, and I don't know how much it costs? Zhu Cheng could only accept his fate, and then asked the price.

"The accommodation fee is not expensive, only ten cents. But this soup cake is simple...... Now it costs 20 yuan a bowl! The store directly compared three fingers, which means that it takes a total of thirty wen.

In Zhu Cheng's memory, when he was in his hometown, a meal of two meat and one vegetable was twenty yuan. For a penny, you can at least buy a big wheat cake. A bowl of soup cakes costs twenty yuan, how luxurious does this have to be?

As a result, the thing came up, the clear soup plus some chopped green onions, that's all, this thing is worth twenty wen! The key point is that the dough is also small, and the Yangchun noodles will not cut corners so much......

"This damn world!" looked at the store and saw that he also showed an embarrassed expression, Zhu Cheng could only eat helplessly.

The clear soup is not watery, fortunately, there is still a little oil, but the salt is also a little less. But after thinking about it, I was relieved, not to mention that this is the mainland, and the cost of transporting salt from other places is high, and now there is no place to sell it if you want to buy it, so the store naturally has to reduce the amount of salt.

Just ordering something for twenty wen, it is equivalent to receiving twenty yuan for eating a steamed bun in later generations, and it is also the kind of hard and small. Forget it, some of them are actually very good......

However, the accommodation is not ambiguous, the beds and quilts are clean, and there are even mosquito nets to block mosquitoes. There were no candles, but there was an oil lamp, but I was told that it was better to rest early if it was okay, otherwise the lamp oil would have to be counted separately.

The shopkeeper also works part-time as a buddy, and he told Zhu Cheng that he could prepare hot water for him to bathe, and if necessary, he could also call him, and there would be hot water supply at that time. Ten cents is just this service, in fact, it is already very good, and the store is estimated to make some hard-earned money.

Zhu Cheng didn't need anything, but it was necessary to take a bath, and at the same time spent a hundred yuan, hoping that the store would help him buy a few replacement clothes. The store said that if it is a new clothes, it is estimated that it will be difficult to buy, after all, it needs to be customized. But if it's old clothes, it's easy, there are clean Confucian robes, or ordinary short clothes, it doesn't cost too much money, and you can buy a few sets for fifty yuan.

Zhu Cheng didn't mean to take back the money, just let him pick some better ones for him, no more, but at least three as replacements. As for the rest, it's hard money!

The boss's business has really not been good these days, and it seems that he can earn thirty yuan for one hundred yuan, so he naturally agreed. As for Zhu Cheng, he locked himself in the house and checked the previous harvest.

The first is the so-called thick cloth armor, which is actually similar to the armor made by sewing several pieces of clothing. It has very poor defense against blunt weapons and weak resistance to blades, with only slightly higher defense against sharp and firearms.

In the system's terms, the part worn can increase defense by 1 point. If the opponent attacks this part, then the damage caused by the opponent will be minus the defense value, which is the final real damage. In the end, it is a life-saving thing, and Zhu Cheng naturally regards it as a treasure.

I learned that I had been promoted to one level, and I realized after reading the battle report that it turned out that it took 10 points of experience to reach the first level. I just don't know how much experience it takes to upgrade to level 2! Later, under the prompt of the system, I learned that I had to open the personal panel to view, and finally learned that to level up, a total of 30 experience points were required, and in addition to the previous battle, there was a surplus of 1 experience point.

With 29 more XP points, you'll be able to level up! As for the life energy, it was also saved to 11 points, which was originally 12 points, but 1 point was exchanged by him for the usual five baht coins; At the same time, there is also a hint in the dashboard that there is 1 attribute point that can be assigned.

The only options that can be assigned are force and intelligence, in other words, whether to increase force or intelligence to be left to him. Considering that the personal force is too low, and the world is really a bit too chaotic, Zhu Cheng still added it to the force.

The force suddenly increased by 1 point, Zhu Cheng immediately felt that the inside of his body began to become hot, and the meridian muscles seemed to be squirming weakly, this process was a little painful and a little itchy, and it stopped after half an hour, and the most intuitive change after strengthening, the fat seemed to be less.

As for the 9 points of energy, he didn't plan to use it, after all, according to the system, to strengthen force or intelligence, within the range of 10-50, 500 points of energy are needed; In the range of 50-70, 1000 energy is required; In the range of 70-90, 100,000 energy is required; In the range of 90-100 points, 5,000,000 points of energy are required. Seeing this, he couldn't help but scold the system for being black enough!
