Chapter 066 [Shuiputun]

The pin on the side smiled bitterly, want to be bigger than others' fists? In this great wilderness, there is no one with a good background and a good bloodline, how easy is it to get ahead!

Why are the trillions of people in the great wilderness divided into several strata of "slaves, subordinates, concubines, soldiers, scholars, and wangs"?

Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes!

It is because the bone and blood meridians inherited from the ancestors, since the time of the congenital turn to the day after tomorrow, it has been destined for the achievements of this life, this is not to find a few sections of superior [forging the body], you can find a breakthrough, although the myth of "common people become marquis" is widely spread in this great wilderness land, but the people who can really do it, it is difficult to get one among ten thousand people.

The scene fell silent all of a sudden, and Ge Qiao looked at the expressionless Gu Yi timidly: "Then do we still want to go to Tunji?"

"Go! for Mao not to go!?"

Gu Yi seemed to quickly adjust his mood, recovered from the state of depression, and became energetic again: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and Lao Tzu doesn't believe that there is no day to turn over! Let's go! Let's go and see what good things are on the tunji!"

Ge Qiao and Pin Fu were stunned by the sudden change of confidence and vigor Gu Yi, this strange man never seemed to know what it was to give up, and always looked full of hope, which made Ge Qiao and Pin Fu glance at each other, and had a more indescribable feeling for Gu Yi who strode forward, and the little mute hiding behind everyone looked at his back with a pair of bright eyes.

Ge Qiao shook his head in confusion, and was about to step up to follow, but saw Gu Yi turn around again, and said with a puzzled expression: "Hey, Ge Qiao boy, it's a few dozen miles away, let's just walk with our legs?"

Everyone was stunned again, if you don't walk, do you still plan to run?

Gu Yi was depressed again, turned around and muttered and left, this damn primitive society, traffic depends on walking, communication depends on roaring, no wonder the vast majority of people will never leave their hometown hundreds of miles away in their lives.

Fortunately, their group of people are basically light-footed people, and it is very convenient to walk, but on the way, Gu Yi saw that the little mute was out of breath and obviously couldn't catch up, so he threw him on his back domineeringly, and walked all the way despite his struggle, but in a few hours, he arrived at Mintun [Shuiputun], which was closest to [bluestone mine].

Along the way, the grass is long, the ancient trees are overgrown, except for a [bluestone mine] ox cart that transports ore and crushes out of the loess road, there is almost no trace of artificial excavation in the four fields, but where there is water, not far apart, you can always see sporadic [Shuzhai], [Liwu].

Or, by dozens of mountain and wild people, families or tribes as a unit of water, spontaneously formed small [settlements] hidden in the lush forests, waterside, and to Gu Yi's great surprise, with such a population density, the natural environment has hardly been damaged, which has to be said to be a miracle.

"Tun" is almost equivalent to a "town" level unit in the Great Wilderness World, with three subordinate units under the jurisdiction of "Zhai = Township", "Wu = Village", and "Ju = Natural Village".

This is also the reason why Gu Yi and others have to run dozens of distances to rush to the largest [Shuiwatun] nearby, along the way, according to the excited Geqiao boy, [Shuiwatun] is the largest [Mintun] among the nine tuns of [Iron Furnace Fort], and there can be more than 12,800 households, divided into six in Shangfang, twelve in Pingfang, forty-eight in Xiafang, and 670,000 people in Dingkou!

Every time there is a "monthly market" and "ten gatherings", the people of [Liwu] and [Shuzhai] in all directions will rush to bring their own goods, sell or exchange with others, and take what they need.

However, the "weekday meeting" that is held every day and the "inter-day meeting" that is held every three days do not gather many people, and if you want to exchange for good things, large objects, and valuables, you have to wait until the "ten-day market" that opens on the 10th and the "monthly market" that opens on the 30th.

It is said that when you encounter the "festival market" that opens every few months or the "annual market" that only comes once a year, there will be caravans from afar, bringing rare goods, foreign artists will demonstrate wonderful tricks in the market, and the wandering northern Shandi will step on the knife row in the market, swing the sword, even if you don't exchange anything, it is also a great pleasure to come and visit the market every time.

It is only in the moon market that the Jiao priests of [Jiao Zhai] will break the fast and order Jiao, and the people only need to offer a piece of millet to get a sacrificial mash jar, but usually only those big merchants who are full of money and grain can rank up the Jiao number, and the common people are not in their turn.

If the common people's family wants to worship their ancestors and need to sacrifice the mash, they can only spend five digits of millet and go to the shop of the big merchant to ask for help, and the master's family will have mercy and may be able to come out of an altar.

Gu Yi and their luck is very good, tomorrow is the moon market of the month, they only need to rest in the [water puddle] for one night, the next day can be in the moon market for a whole day, the reason why Ge Qiao, this kid has been urging Gu Yi and others to hurry, is looking forward to taking this opportunity, a good play in the moon market, the next trip out, I don't know what year and month Lu Dao is.

[Shuiwatun] was built in a big river called [Weishui] after the diversion, left more than a dozen to expand the square circle of a lake, this lake is called [Weiwa], the depth of the water is only a thousand, clear to see the bottom, so the name of "Wa" instead of "lake", [Shuiwatun] hence the name.

Gu Yi they rushed to [Shuipu Tun] an hour before sunset, only to see the cattle mooing and neighing outside the tun, the sound of people boiling, I don't know how many people gathered in the road, most of them drove the livestock, calling for children and daughters gathered outside the tun wall, there was a hurry to catch up with the tun, so they spread out the meadow outside the tun, and put their goods one by one on the side of the road to sell, but it was very lively.

"Why don't they go into the tun?"

Gu Yi saw that the common people who had come from afar with the tireless work were approaching the time to close the gate and seal the tun, but outside the wall of [Shuiputun], they found a place to rest, and it seemed that they were planning to spend the night outside the wall.

To say that the wall of this [Shuiputun] is not high, two up and down, that is, four meters six high, the earth and wood are built, placed in the original world of Guyi, it is really not majestic, but in this primitive world of the world, can build a four-meter-six high, more than one meter thick double-layer log fill mud wall, it can be regarded as very majestic.
