Chapter 118: The Caravan Arrives
That night, Pang Yuan walked into the house with a huge bloody bear on his back, startling the old man Pang who was busy cooking inside, causing the old man to complain.
The next day, Huzi came over early in the morning.
The two did not go to the routine training in the early morning, Huzi accompanied Pang Yuan to drag the corpse of the giant beast into the slaughterhouse on the edge of the village, and asked someone to divide it, which caused many villagers to watch.
The blade swings, the blood drains, and the skin is peeled and the bones are removed.
Pang Yuan obtained a very complete piece of precious xenomorph bear skin, although there were wounds, it was harmless and valuable.
Everyone looked at it and was amazed.
After being cleaned, with the divided bear skin, thick bear bones and a large pile of fresh meat, and separated from Tong Hu, Pang Yuan returned home smoothly and handed it over to the old man Pang who was waiting at home for distribution.
The old man and Pang Yuan were busy marinating the bear meat with a huge amount of meat so that it could be preserved, and they were tired and sweating profusely.
Subsequently, the bear skin and bear bones were cleaned and organized, and Old Man Pang carefully stored them.
Especially the huge and friendless bear skin, which can be used as a quilt cover, the old man is very baby.
After these tedious tasks are over, it is basically noon, the sun is rising high, and the sun is shining.
Old man Pang was idle, sat on a small stool to rest, lit a dry cigarette and smoked beautifully.
The old man thought about it, and then sent Pang Yuan to several lonely and widowed families in the small mountain village who were living in difficulty, mostly frail old people, and each sent dozens of catties of fresh bear meat, which was regarded as some help as much as possible.
In the afternoon, after filling his stomach, Pang Yuan resumed his normal hard training schedule in the afternoon.
In the next few days, in addition to training, Pang Yuan would also go to communicate with Dr. Sun in the village, discuss some breakthroughs in Jushi Gong, as well as his own experience, and ask the old doctor's opinion.
Combined with the old doctor's rich experience and the study of the mysterious elixir of cultivation, Pang Yuan has gained a lot by touching the bypass.
The adult hunters in the village also knew that Pang Yuan had officially broken through the first layer of the Giant Stone Gong, and they were surprised, and most of them attributed Pang Yuan's strong strength to this.
Many uncles and uncles of the Orion came to Pang Yuan for guidance, but Pang Yuan had no choice but to show them the means after the breakthrough, which made the Orions stunned.
At the same time, the powerful effect of the boulder gong and the magical body protection stone armor made the old hunters greatly admired, which greatly stimulated everyone's enthusiasm for cultivation.
With Pang Yuan's living goal, Jushi Gong's martial arts practice has begun to bear fruit, and the hunters are not afraid of hardships and devote themselves to training with a more positive attitude.
Pang Yuan, on the other hand, continued the boring life of the village and the training ground, and under the accumulation of bit by bit, the operation and use of the Boulder Gong and the Lion Demon Fist became more and more proficient.
In this way, the small mountain village once again returned to a peaceful and orderly life.
Another afternoon.
The sun was high in the sky, and it was a little noisy outside the quiet mountain village, and a strange team of chariots and horses slowly came.
The team consisted of about a dozen people.
Except for the servants, most of them were sturdy guards in light armor, armed with swords and guns, and looked vigilant. At the head was a stocky old man with a kind face.
The group guarded seven or eight wagons, half of them empty, and the rest were full of goods, covered with coarse cloth, and it was impossible to see what they were.
It was only full, and the weight was heavy, and there were two clear deep ruts on the ground where the carriage had passed.
"Old Wu Tou, have you arrived? It should be this village, right?!"
A sturdy guard reached out and touched the sweat on his forehead, gasped for breath, and asked loudly the stout old man walking in front of him.
Old Wu Tou nodded, and when he turned around, he saw the people behind him, most of them had a deeply tired look on their faces, their spirits were a little sluggish, and they shouted loudly to encourage everyone.
"Let's work harder, the village in front of you is the destination, and you can rest when you go in. ”
When everyone in the team heard this, their spirits were lifted again, and their steps were much faster.
In a short time, the small mountain village was already close at hand.
At the same time, some villagers near the entrance of the village also quickly noticed the coming chariot and horse procession, and instead of panicking, they were a little happy, and went to inform the old village chief early.
When the convoy came to the entrance of the village, the old village chief who came had already brought a lot of old hunters to greet him, and Uncle Lin was also accompanied by Li Village.
The group that rushed to the village suddenly stopped, and Lao Wu Tou also led everyone to approach, smiling.
"Haha, Lao Wu, your caravan is finally here, everyone in our village is in a hurry, this time it will be a lot later than in previous years. ”
The old village chief walked up with a smile and gently pounded the chest of the short and stout old man, and there was some surprise in his tone.
"Recently, some things have been delayed on my side, and I have missed the time, Tie Village, I'm really sorry, so let's do it, Lao Wu, I'll punish myself three cups first!"
Lao Wu Tou smiled kindly, arched his hand towards the old village chief, acted very tactfully, and resolved the question in a few words.
Many of the guards around Lao Wu Tou originally saw so many strong hunters surrounding, all carrying sharp weapons, and they were a little nervous, but when they saw the scene in front of them, they all relaxed.
"Haha, it's still Lao Wu, you are refreshing! Let's go, let's stop standing here, you guys have been traveling all the way, hurry into the village to rest." ”
The old village chief didn't blame much, just smiled and patted Old Wu's arm, looked happy, and pulled him closer to the village gate.
"Tong Lin, you take these brothers of the old Wu caravan to the village to rest. ”
At the same time, the old village chief turned his head and instructed Uncle Lin beside him to help receive the rest of the convoy and settle them down.
The village has already been prepared, and there are still some vacant houses, which is more than enough to accommodate this group of foreign convoys.
Uncle Lin and the others led the caravan into the village and went to these vacant houses to rest first.
It turned out that this was a caravan from the outside world, the scale was not large, and the old Wu Tou who led it was originally named Wu Yunjin, and he was familiar with the old village chief in the mountain village, and the two met during their travels in Li Village.
Over the years, the two have been in contact, and Old Wu Tou has also formed a small caravan.
Every year, he led a caravan and hired many guards to travel long distances through dense forests to small mountain villages to buy a large number of original fur animal bones and other goods, and then transported them to the outside world to sell them for huge profits.
It was a simple barter.
The grain, coarse salt, tobacco, cloth, and iron utensils brought by Lao Wutou's caravan every year greatly improved the life of the village and helped the hunters.
The forest sea is long, the danger is lurking, and it is not easy for caravans to arrive, so this trade is only once a year.
There is a backlog of animal skins and other items at home, and if they cannot be exchanged, they will not be of much use, and most of the villagers are looking forward to it.
Uncle Lin took everyone in the caravan to wash and rest first, and sent a few hunters to inform the villagers.
And most of the people in the village have received the news at this moment, knowing that the caravan from the outside has come to the village and is going to trade.
Many hunters' homes were very busy at this time, and people packed up their goods at home that could be traded, packed up the skins, bones, and flesh of the wild beasts they had hunted, and took them to the usual trading place in the village to wait.
In the open space of the village, many villagers have gathered, and people are excited to exchange goods and daily necessities with each other.
