Chapter 22: PIA, PIA
The feeling of blood and qi on his face became heavier and heavier, until Jing Tian approached the city gate, and this feeling almost reached its peak, as if he was surrounded by momentum. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
The woodcutter and the two guards at the city gate talked about Jing Tian, and the two guards also did not show any guard or hostility, smiled and welcomed Jing Tian a few words, and then watched Jing Tian enter the city gate with the woodcutter with a curious look.
Entering the city, Jing Tian's eyes still looked back frequently, because the weapons of the city gate guards were very special, and the craftsmanship was actually the same as the famous sword he got in the 'Xun Qin Ji', although the materials had changed, but it was not much worse, so the power was almost not weaker than the famous sword of Ouyeel.
After a while, Jing Tian finally had the heart to look at the environment in the city, and suddenly found that there were no gorgeous buildings in the city at all, almost all of them were practical mud houses. There were no shops on the whole street, no hawkers were heard, and in the houses on the side of the road, the people had their own jobs, and there were no lazy people.
As far as the eye can see, there is not even a single child on the entire street, which is what puzzles Jing Tian the most.
While the woodcutter was leading the way, he noticed the puzzled expression on Jing Tian's face, and couldn't help but laugh softly and asked, "What's the matter?" What is the confusion of the afterlife? β
"Senior, why don't you see the boy?" Jing Tian asked.
"That's what happened." The woodcutter shook his shoulders, skewered the dry wood behind him, and then raised his hand and pointed to the front right, explaining: "Except for the new baby in the city, the other children are all trained on the 'martial arts field'. β
"Training?" Jing Tian couldn't help but use his divine sense to investigate, and asked, "Do all children need to be trained?" Male or female? β
"Of course." The woodcutter bowed his head and said: "In this world, our human race competes with heaven and earth and all things, and every member of the clan will start exercising from the time of knowing things until adulthood, and no one will be tired. β
When Jing Tian heard this, his face became even more curious, but what he was curious about was how the humans in this world began to exercise since childhood.
"Do you have any other doubts?" Seeing this, the woodcutter asked, "Just ask." β
"Still curious about how my Terran exercised." Jing Tian didn't hide it, nodded slowly and said, "In addition, dare to ask the seniors, why haven't you ever seen a merchant buying and selling?" β
"Merchant buying and selling? I seem to have heard ...... somewhere" The woodcutter pondered slightly, gave up for a moment, and asked Jing Tian: "Later life, what is a merchant trading?" β
"By trading different materials, people can communicate with each other." Jing Tian explained simply.
"Oh, you're talking about the mutual market." The woodcutter understood, smiled again and raised his hand, still pointing to the right front and said, "Not far from the 'martial field' is where the mutual market in the city is located, where the clansmen are exchanging profits and shortages. β
"I see." Jing Tian said suddenly: "You can also take care of the children nearby, and don't let the birds attack, right?" β
"Hahahaha, Housheng, you guessed wrong." The woodcutter laughed loudly when he heard this, and many eyes peeked out into the houses beside the street.
"Shepherd." A strong man walked out of a house on the side of the street and beckoned to the woodcutter: "Coming back from collecting firewood?" Who is this afterlife? Qi and blood are not visible, but the qi refiners in other cities? β
"Wei, this afterlife is a visitor from outside the city that I met." The woodcutter responded with a smile, then raised his hand and patted Jing Tian on the shoulder, raised his face to the strong man with an unexpected face, and introduced Jing Tian: "Hou Sheng, this is Wei, Shi Qi, the top hunter in our city. β
"Senior Qi Wei." Jing Tian greeted the strong man in a friendly manner.
"It's actually a visitor from outside the world, it's extremely strange." The strong man nodded, looked at Jing Tian and said with a smile: "Housheng, just like Mu, just call me Wei." β
Jing Tian responded with a smile.
"Huh?" At this time, the strong man saw the two halves of the bird corpse behind the woodcutter, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Mu, you actually hit a 'head pecking bird'?" β
"Haha, that's good." The woodcutter responded with a smile: "This beast bullied Hou Sheng's weak qi and blood, and he dared to sneak attack, but he asked me to pick up the cheap." It's a pity that I don't have the skill of yours, and I've wasted this brute's blood. β
"Haha, don't be greedy, it's better to fight your teeth." The strong man responded with a smile.
"I won't tell you more, I will take the descendants to the clan elder." As he spoke, the woodcutter unloaded the dry wood, threw it to the strong man, and said, "Go to my house, and this beast will be taken care of by you." β
"Okay." The strong man raised his hand easily and took a bundle of dry firewood lightly.
"Housheng, continue to come with me." The woodcutter greeted Jing Tian and led the way.
Jing Tian glanced at the surrounding houses, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, the people here were too uncurious, they just watched from a distance and peeked at one or two, and didn't come out to watch him, a visitor from outside the world......
has roughly adapted to the character of the woodcutter, so Jing Tian asked if he didn't understand, and after walking for a while, he said: "Senior, why is no one looking at me surprised?" β
"Everyone is curious." The woodcutter said as he led the way: "But I know that you are going to the clan elder now, and as for all kinds of doubts, the ancestral shrine will send someone to confess the details to the people of the city in the evening. β
When Jing Tian heard this, he understood slightly, it seems that the social structure of the human race in this world is somewhat similar to that of the clans and tribes in ancient times, where everyone is united and there is no class antagonism.
I am afraid that only the difficulty of survival in this world can make this special social structure last so long.
"That's right, senior." Jing Tian brought up the previous topic again and asked, "The senior said that my guess was wrong before, I don't know the details?" β
"Oh." The woodcutter remembered the previous topic, looked up into the distance, and then turned to Jing Tian and said, "In this way, I'll take you to the 'Mutual Market' and 'Martial Arts' first." β
"Okay, bother seniors." Jing Tian happily agreed.
"Hehehehe......" The woodcutter stopped, turned his head to look at Jing Tian and chuckled, then raised his hand and patted Jing Tian on the shoulder, reminding: "The future generation needs to remember, you and I are both human races, don't talk politely like this, except for the heroes and clansmen, call your name when you meet, ask for help when you are in trouble, and help when you see it." Only by unity and friendship can our human race gain a foothold in the world. β
"Teachable." Jing Tian clenched his fists seriously, and admired the human race in this world in his heart.
"In the future, you can call me Mu, Gai Mu, you can call it whatever you want." The woodcutter seemed to have a habit of patting his shoulder, and when he spoke, he slapped Jing Tian twice on the shoulder with his big hand like a basketball player's fan.
Jing Tian smiled bitterly in his heart, who made him look like a child in front of a woodcutter who was about two meters nine in height. But speaking of which, along the way, Jing Tian found that the adult race in this world seems to be no less than two meters tall, regardless of gender......
The two started again, walked through an intersection, turned right, and turned left at the next intersection, and Jing Tian finally saw a popular street.
In front of the street, nearly 100 people stood in different rows, either sitting on both sides of the street and setting up stalls, or carrying baskets and baskets, browsing the items on the street stalls.
From time to time, someone exchanged what they needed, no bargaining, no action to pay, almost exchanged two sentences, and they both did the exchange with a smile, not caring whether the exchange was equivalent or not, it all depended on the demand.
Jing Tian watched while following the woodcutter through the 'mutual market' street, and soon after walking, a faint sound of childish shouting came.
Soon out of the street, an empty playground appeared in front of me, where more than 100 children and children of different ages were concentrating on exercising.
There are all kinds of weapons around the playground, as well as large and small stone locks and iron locks. Among the more than 100 children, the larger ones were waving their blades in shouting. Every time he swung it, he moved slowly and firmly, the scale of the swing was almost indifferent, his eyes were serious, his blood was rushing, and his heart was beating like a drum.
Smaller children gather around the stone locks and iron locks, swinging and throwing them as if acrobatically, with one arm or both hands, many of which are constantly flying and falling.
There were also about 20 children who looked to be only five or six years old, led by a boy in his teens, who were practicing boxing routines in the middle of the square.
Every time they punched, the eyes of these children were equally serious, and their immature shouts were very neat. After each punch and kick, they would pause slightly, and the qi and blood in their bodies would accelerate for a moment, and then under the leadership of the teenage boy, they would continue to punch and kick.
Jing Tian and the woodcutter stood at the edge of the square, and after watching for a while, Jing Tian couldn't help but look around the square in wonder, and then asked the woodcutter beside him in puzzlement: "Qian, Mu, why is there no one around to take care of it?" β
"Why care?" This time, the woodcutter did not answer directly, but asked with a smile.
"Aren't you afraid of a sneak attack by fierce birds and birds?" Jing Tian continued to ask.
"Hahaha......"
The woodcutter laughed, and Jing Tian knew that it was coming again. Sure enough, the woodcutter raised his hand again in laughter, and after saying 'pia, pia' twice, he explained: "If you have not practiced, you should not know that qi and blood are like mountains." β
The woodcutter raised his hand to point to the whole town, then raised his hand to point to the sky, and said with a smile: "All the clansmen in the city are full of qi and blood, and the breath overflows like a mountain peak, covering the whole city like a mountain peak, so that birds and wild monsters dare to approach." β
Jing Tian followed the woodcutter's guidance and looked up, and couldn't help but let go of his perception, and in an instant, a new scene came into his eyes.
I saw that the whole city was like a burning flame, and the blood and qi of the Dao gathered and rose to the sky like a mountain peak. Upon closer inspection, Jing Tian discovered more things.
In that invisible sky-high blood, there is also a very strong will. It is like a cry of the ancients, with the unity of all people, and the indomitable firmness. It is shocking and gives people a sense of incomparability.
"What are you looking at?" The woodcutter opened his mouth and summoned Jing Tian back to his senses, and said with a smile: "You haven't cultivated yet, you can't sense the blood qi, and when you enter the cultivation in the future, you will naturally be able to know the strength of my human race." β
Jing Tian slowly took a deep breath, glanced at the 'Blood Qi Volcano' that constantly exuded the will of the human race in the air again, and after being silent for a while, he continued to ask: "When I first came, I saw the traces of strange beasts, almost the same as the demons in the record. Fierce birds with only instinct dare not disturb, so what about those strange beasts? Wouldn't they covet the city either? β
The woodcutter was silent this time, and looked at the children in the field for a long time, and then sighed and said, "Strange beasts have spirits, and they are all fierce. Since ancient times, our human race has fought heaven and earth, and I don't know how many predecessors have been sacrificed, so that all the races of heaven and earth will remember our human race. β
His face became proud, and the woodcutter's tone gradually became high: "Although the alien beast is strong, if it comes to attack, our human race will not let it retreat!" For a long time, almost all the different creatures and beasts knew that our human race was united! β
With a long sigh of relief, the woodcutter calmed down his excitement, turned his head to look at Jing Tian, and said slowly: "The descendants of the living soul beasts have the memory of bloodline inheritance, so there are very few living spirit beasts that come to covet our human race, even if there may be an accident, our human race qi refiners can also detect it in advance." β
Jing Tian nodded slowly, and from the woodcutter's narration, Jing Tian seemed to see the unyielding of the ancient human race. In order to protect the inheritance of the human race, the ancestors united with their weak bodies, and competed with all the races one after another, and finally took the land of prosperity from the hands of all the races of heaven and earth for the descendants of today......
This is a legend and an epic, and Jing Tian can't help but fantasize about the great dedication of the ancient human sages......
When Jing Tian came back to his senses, there was already a tiger head child in front of him, and his immature appearance looked thirteen or fourteen years old, but his height was close to one meter eight, and Jing Tian trembled the corners of his eyes with determination.
"Mu, this is ......," Jing Tian asked.
"Haha, this is my baby, his name is healing." The woodcutter laughed proudly, and 'pia, pia' patted his son on the shoulder and introduced him to Jing Tian.
"Gai Heal." Jing Tian greeted the child.
The child was stunned, and the woodcutter laughed and said, "You are mistaken." β
"Oh?" Jing Tian was puzzled.
piaγpiaγ
Then the woodcutter explained: "The baby is called healing, and after he has passed the coming-of-age ceremony of sixteen, he will receive the surname for his future merits." β
Jing Tian suddenly realized that Xia Zhou and earlier ancients did not have the habit of inheriting their father's surname.
After being introduced by the woodcutter, the little baby immediately showed the curiosity that he should have at this age, and his eyes were shining to ask Jing Tian, a visitor from outside the world.
Jing Tian smiled and replied, after all, the little baby is not very old, and he can't ask any important points, so Jing Tian basically doesn't have to hide anything, which greatly satisfies the curiosity of the little baby.
It wasn't until the call of his friends came from a distance that the little baby said goodbye to Jing Tian very politely, ran back to the middle of the exercise team, and continued to start throwing stone locks to exercise the strength of qi, blood and body.
Jing Tian watched from the sidelines for a while, and then left with the woodcutter, this time going straight to the ancestral shrine where the clan elder was.
Walking all the way down the street, more than ten minutes later, a large stone house appeared in front of it, and some people were carrying sacrifices and entering the stone house in an orderly manner to worship......
