After retrieving the records of the operation log and night, Lin Tuo lowered his head and observed the layout in the sand table again, and probably figured out the current situation.

"Sure enough...... As the land area grows, the social structure changes. Lin Tuo was a little emotional.

According to the description in the journal, the structure of human society in the sandbox today is a form of alliance of states co-existing.

Aside from the inaccessible and unexplored and unexplored places around the continent, the most fertile central region is home to dozens of countries, large and small.

Among them, the "Ding" country is the most powerful and the world is the master, so it is counted as the "Great Ding" dynasty, and the rest of the kingdoms belong to the "vassal states".

The princes here are not canonized by the royal family, but independent and self-governing states.

That's probably the situation.

According to the time, the Ding Dynasty has existed for more than 300 years.

"It seems that we haven't gotten rid of slavery yet, but we have a complete social form, well, it seems that this place is a little worse than the original Chi country...... Is it because of the difference in land area......

Lin Tuo thought about it, called out the virtual panel, turned off the time acceleration, and the light and shadow in the sand table immediately stopped, and in the upper left corner, the current ambient ether concentration was displayed as "low", which was not surprising.

"The number of demons is still scarce...... "Gazing at the sky, the scattered blue and white aura, and the number of hanging ether threads have increased a lot compared to yesterday, but compared to humans, it is still too small.

Lin Tuo thought about it, but he was not surprised.

Demons are born in different races, relying too much on chance, and it is difficult to reproduce on a large scale, not to mention possible obstacles at the reproductive level, but the scale of numbers is not enough to support ......

In case of bad luck, there is only one demon or two in the entire group, but they are of the same gender...... Just thinking about it, it's sad.

Moreover, once wisdom is turned on, there is a high probability that they will not continue to live with their ignorant kindred.

Lin Tuo noticed that most of the thin aetheric lines were distributed in places where humans gathered, mountains and forests on the outskirts of cities, or mountains near the countryside.

"Well, speaking of which, there will definitely be conflicts under this mixed pattern." Lin Tuo thought about it, and felt that the work of spreading the cultivation method became more and more urgent.

Yes, the "next step" of the plan is to spread the cultivation method.

As for how to spread, he already has an idea, but before that, he still needs to understand the situation inside the sand table, do a "research" on the social situation, and make targeted adjustments.

As for the location of the "investigation", Lin Tuo's gaze was pulled to the sky, looking at the continent, the concentration of ether in the sky above dozens of vassal states, and his gaze fell on the most intense area.

It was not the Ding country of the "co-lord of the world", but a vassal state.

After thinking for two seconds, Lin Tuo turned around, took out a small black cloak from the cabinet that had been prepared a long time ago, immediately pushed the door, came outside, and shouted: "Huaxi? ”

"Huh?" Senior Sister Lishan, who had just finished washing the dishes and chopsticks, rolled up her sleeves, and walked out of the kitchen with her white hands covered with water, with a question mark on her face.

In the next second, I saw a black shadow rushing towards me: "Change your clothes, wait for a business trip with me." ”

……

Lin Tuo didn't have a job, and of course the business trip here meant something else.

When Huaxi wiped his hands excitedly, put on this strange cloak, and walked out of the door, he saw that Lin Tuo, who was also wearing a cloak, was already standing in the patio.

"Do you want to teleport...... Hua Xi's heart was full of realization, she had long known that Lin Tuo had the ability to teleport, but in the past, most of it was used to take takeaways...... Today, it's markedly different.

"Where are you going?" Huaxi skillfully walked over and grabbed it.

Under the sun, Lin Tuo pulled his hood and brushed away the hair that was blocking his vision: "Go to another world." ”

……

……

In the center of the reckless continent, the place where the human race gathers, and the vast land, all belong to the realm of the Dading Dynasty.

The southwest is the territory of the princes' "Sheng" country.

There is a mountain range in the south of Shengguo, which is called the Great Wilderness Mountain because of its barrenness.

There is a village at the foot of the mountain, nameless.

At this moment, it was evening, and in the western sky, wisps of clouds seemed to be frozen, and the bright sun was slowly falling below the horizon.

The sunlight shines through the clouds, hazy, and sprinkles on the faces of the crowd gathered at the entrance of the village, much like an oil painting.

However, between the simple eyebrows and eyes of the villagers gathered here, there was only more and more anxiety.

Almost the whole village gathered at the entrance of the village, leaning closer, looking in the direction of the mountain, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly.

"Uncle Tie, they're back!" In the crowd, a sharp-eyed doll was the first to shout.

Then, the others also saw a group of people running out of the dense forest in the distance.

The whole silent picture seemed to be broken, and everyone was obviously relieved, as if a hanging heart had fallen to the ground.

The village chief led by the crowd didn't wait for those people to run over, and hurriedly shouted:

"How? Did the mountain god take it? ”

On the other side, six or seven men ran out of the mountains and forests, wearing some bright ribbons on their bodies, and some of them were carrying flat burdens in their hands.

At this moment, he gasped and ran to the entrance of the village, and a tall man at the head shook his head, nodded again, and said in the anxious expressions of the rest of the people:

"I didn't see it, we put the offerings in the temple and came back."

Everyone looked at each other, this answer was not good or bad, and finally the village chief spoke:

"Anyway, it's good that they're all back, and the rest depends on the will of heaven, I hope the mountain god will not enter the village for the sake of offerings." Let's go back, go back. ”

As he spoke, the people guarding the entrance of the village turned their heads with anxiety, and they were about to go back, but the little child couldn't help but say: "What kind of mountain god, it's clearly a demon ......."

"What nonsense?!" Next to him, the child's father was in a hurry when he heard this, hurriedly kicked him, turned his head to look at the mountain in the distance, lowered his voice and scolded, "I don't have anything for you to eat at night!" ”

"Forget it, Tong Yan Wuji." The leader, a tall man named Wang Tie, came over and persuaded.

In his eyes, there was a burst of amazement.

Goblin.

Yes, what a mountain god, it's just a demon at all.

There are demons in heaven and earth, this is something that everyone who grew up in this world has known since childhood, they often appear in stories, dreams, and when they grow up, they know that demons really exist.

They are scarce in number, but they are far more powerful than ordinary beasts and humans, and can only be dealt with by armoured armies, roaming the land, invading villages and towns from time to time.

And over a long period of time, humans and demons have gradually reached a strange "tacit understanding".

Once the demons come to a certain area and reveal their whereabouts, some people will send cattle and sheep as offerings, and some demons will receive the offerings and leave, while others will swallow them together......

Of course, there are also a few demons who receive offerings and will use their abilities to give some rewards......

But no one dared to bet on it.

Not long ago, when someone from the village went to a nearby town, they heard that a demon had entered the surrounding territory and killed people, and now I don't know where it went.

When he came back, he was stunned to find the traces of the monsters walking in the mountains, and the whole village suddenly became nervous.

It's not a town, and there are no officers and soldiers stationed there, so naturally there is no one to protect it.

The village hurriedly slaughtered the livestock, gathered some offerings, and sent them to the temple on the mountain, but they never thought that when they arrived at the place, they did not meet the main owner.

Seeing that the sky was dark, everyone didn't dare to stay longer, so they hurriedly returned.

Thinking of this, Wang Tie, who has wandered around the city and studied for a few years, couldn't help but sink his heart.

If the demon really comes, can they stop it alone?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stop and turn his head to look behind him.

At the junction of the mountains and the flatlands, the sun had already set a little half.

However, at this moment, all of a sudden, a strange wind blew, blowing everyone's clothes, hair, and the entire mountain forest, and the wind swept the earth and birds and birds.

"Ah, there are people on the official road!" The child next to him shouted again, and Wang Tie and the others hurriedly looked.

I saw that on the relatively "wide" and "smooth" official road between the village and the mountains and forests, one large and one small, two travelers wearing black cloaks were walking side by side.

Behind them, there was the warm red sun, and in a trance, the two of them seemed to be coming from the sun.

……

"It's dark and the road is far away, is it convenient to spend the night?"

In a trance, when everyone came back to their senses, they saw that the strangers had come to the entrance of the village, and the first one pulled down his hood, revealing a face that was exceptionally white and had a very different temperament from the people in the village.

Next to him, Huaxi also learned to pull down his hat, so the surprise in the eyes of the villagers became more and more intense.

Compared with the poor Shengguo villagers, Lin Tuo and Huaxi are very different from this world in terms of appearance, temperament, and clothing.

Look at ...... It's like ...... Distant "city people".

"Inconvenient?" Seeing that no one answered, Lin Tuo frowned imperceptibly, thinking that he would have to change places.

"No, it's just...... We're not living in peace. ”

The village chief looked at the two of them for a while, and persuaded kindly, and when he saw the two of them looking at him, he pointed to the mountain peak not far away with emphasis, and reminded in a low voice: "Here, there are demons." ”

Immediately, I saw a smile in Lin Tuo's eyes: "That's really good." ”
