Chapter 534: Strange House
As soon as the day dawned, the foolish men and the others got up. Last night, they just spread some dead branches on the ground as beds, including those half-grown children, without any complaints, and slept soundly.
The sun was not yet horizon, so everyone got up and hurried. Everyone looked at Qiu Ming, waiting for Qiu Ming to give him the spirit rune. Qiu Ming was a little depressed, how did he feel like a nanny?
Well, fortunately, they took the spirit talisman, and they knew how to say thank you, and promised to entertain Qiu Ming well when they got home. They can go home a day earlier and work more to make the winter better.
Now the ordinary talisman is not of much use to Qiu Ming, he is practicing using his divine thoughts to depict the jade talisman in the jade tablet, this is more powerful, the effect is better, and of course the drawing is slower.
If the art of talisman is completed, then nothing is needed, and you can draw talismans in the air, this realm, Qiu Ming is still far away.
Yu Gong ran with his family, Qiu Ming was next to him with his hands behind his back, pacing slowly, but he would definitely not be pulled down. Before the sun went down, it was finally possible to see a few thatched houses.
"Oh~~I'm home~~" Gongsun Lei and a few other half-grown children cheered loudly, and at the same time ran quickly towards the thatched house.
A woman came out of the thatched hut, and when she saw Yugong and them returning, she was also very surprised, why did she come back earlier than expected?
Wait, who is that person, looking at the dress, it should be a foreigner, definitely not from a nearby village.
"Qiu Ming, come and sit. Go pour some water and entertain the guests. Gongsun Chun commanded loudly.
There are a few stone tables and some stone benches at the entrance of the thatched house, but the craftsmanship is not good. Wait a minute, the material of this stone table and stone bench does not seem to be ordinary stone!
Qiu Ming took a look at it, why did he feel like a blood stone? But is there such a big piece of blood stone? Or are they all made into tables, chairs, and benches placed outside the door?
I always thought that Yugong's family was very poor, but now it seems that they are clearly local tyrants! If these things were seen by other monks, they would definitely be willing to pay a lot of money for them.
If it's just grain in exchange, then the grain has to be piled up into a hill!
"Try it, this is the sugar water my wife made, it's delicious." Gongsun Chun said enthusiastically.
Qiu Ming looked at this bowl of water, he felt a lot of aura from the water, no wonder Yugong's family is in such good health, eating these things every day, plus regular labor, even if they don't know how to practice, their health will not be bad!
From this point of view, the descendants of Yugong may not be witches, because Qiu Ming really didn't feel the fluctuations in the power of the witch clan in these people, but whether Yugong is a witch or not, Qiu Ming is not sure, because he can't see through this person at all.
After a few sips, the taste is a little sweet, and he won't feel tired, Qiu Ming likes it very much.
"Delicious!"
Hearing Qiu Ming's praise, everyone else was happy. Something that is taken out to entertain the guests is of course a good thing, and it would be embarrassing if the guests didn't like it.
"The sun hasn't set yet, so you guys go hunt some prey and come back to entertain guests in the evening." Yu Gong commanded.
Gongsun Qiu took a few people, stepped on the bow and arrow, and walked towards the mountains and forests with a spear in his hand. The iron head of this bow and arrow, spear, etc., is also one of the main things they need to trade back when they go out.
"Can I walk around here?"
"Ray, come and accompany the guests." Yu Gong shouted, and Gongsun Lei ran over, followed by a few younger children.
"Uncle Qiu, what do you want to see? There's a lot of fun around here, and now it's getting dark and we don't have time. ”
"It's okay, I'll just walk around." Qiu Ming didn't plan to go further, he just wanted to see these thatched houses. He found the distribution of these thatched huts interesting.
Yu Gong is a fourth-generation family in the same house, and his family has built six thatched houses, one of which is in the middle, and the others are dozens of meters away. The thatched huts around it look like they are wrapping around the thatched hut in the middle.
Qiu Ming faintly felt a strange fluctuation of power from a thatched hut in the middle. These thatched huts are not unarranged according to the formation, so where does the power come from?
When he was about to approach the house, Gongsun Lei grabbed him: "That's Grandpa's house, you can't get close." ”
Yugong's house is not approached, is there anything in it? Qiu Ming was not hindered from approaching other rooms, and even warmly beckoned him to come into the house to sit, why can't this one?
Are there any rules, or is there something valuable in this house, afraid that Qiu Ming, an outsider, will see it?
Others stopped him, Qiu Ming naturally wouldn't come close, he walked around a few more times, and he understood the life of the fools.
They reclaimed their own wasteland, and they did not grow high-yielding crops. Usually they have to rely on hunting, fishing, collecting wild fruits and so on to satisfy their hunger, although the life is hard, but these people are very happy.
Many people in the real world fantasize about how cool it would be to walk through ancient times, and in short, if you stay for a short time, maybe it will be very cool, and it will be considered a tour. Over time, most people will go crazy!
Lack of food and clothing, no recreational activities, and even you can't understand the happiness of others, and you can't fit in with the group.
Qiu Ming didn't understand where the happiness of these people came from now, just because Yugong brought back some salt, cloth and iron tools?
How sad it would be to regard basic living security as a happy thing.
In less than an hour, it was dark, and Gongsun Qiu and the others had already returned. There were traps they dug nearby, and they just went to check them out and then killed the prey that fell into the trap and brought it back, so it didn't take much time.
The thighs of a beast that Qiu Ming didn't know what were roasted on the fire, smeared with a layer of salt, and some plant juices, smelled very good.
Qiu Ming tasted a piece of meat, and it tasted average, but it contained some spiritual energy, which made it much more precious.
"Yugong, the one in the middle is your room?"
Yugong raised his eyes: "Is there any problem?" ”
"You should be in your nineties, and your body is still so strong, I think in other places, people in their forties and fifties are not as healthy as you, what is the reason for this?" Qiu Ming asked deliberately.
"Because we are harder than they are."
"Isn't it because of those actions?" Qiu Ming looked at Yu Gong's eyes.
"Stranger, it's better not to ask so many questions about some things. You said you don't need to prepare your house, right, then rest early after eating, and we'll start moving tomorrow! ”
Yu Gong got up and left, and Qiu Ming watched Yu Gong walk back to the thatched house. He found another problem, the doors of the other houses were facing the middle room, instead of choosing the south side that would allow more sunlight to shine into the house.
Qiu Ming suddenly thought that Yugong and they would rather dig the mountain than move away, not just because of the problem of food, right?
It seems that what are they guarding? In that room?
