The town in front of you sits on a relatively flat plain, surrounded by a concrete wall about two meters high, and there is a long road in front of the town, which is paved with all kinds of fine stones and is quite smooth, without the ruggedness and potholes of the muddy path.

Two straight chimneys towered into the air, and black smoke erupted from the chimneys, like poisonous mist spit out by a black snake, hovering over the entire town.

Bai Ming's footsteps stopped, and he looked at this scene with some distraction, with some incredulity.

In previous contact, he believed that this was a cold weapon feudal era when industrial civilization had not yet sprouted, but the black smoke from the tall chimney, even if you stood here, you could hear the faint roar of machines, and the buildings of the entire town were mainly made of stones mixed with cement, which at least began the first industrial civilization change.

But what about the backward scenes I saw earlier?

The place is currently semi-colonial? And did you travel to Japan that was colonized after the hacked ship incident?

After getting in close contact with the humans of this world, he felt that he had traveled back in time to ancient Japan in the conversational language of some of the people around him, and in the clothes and hairstyles of the ancient Japanese period.

And after seeing this town, and seeing some of the products of the industrial revolution in front of him, he realized that it was time for him to change the concept of the feudal cold weapon era that he had previously identified.

Exhaling softly, Bai Ming temporarily pressed down the messy mood in his heart and continued to walk forward along the flow of people.

At present, it is better to think about how to solve your own food problem first, and then think about other things.

Depending on the size of the town and the influx of people it attracts, there will generally be a stable order in the town, and as long as you are careful, you should not be too careful about sudden dangers.

He hesitated for a moment, and decided to go inside, after all, it was impossible to hide in the wild all the time as a wild man.

As the flow of people continued to move forward, the road became a little crowded, Bai Ming was not in a hurry to enter the town, but walked slowly, while quietly and carefully observing the town in front of him.

The size of the town should not be too large, probably able to accommodate a population of about a few thousand, and the buildings in the town and what you have just seen already indicate that the country should have begun its first industrial revolution.

It's just that according to Bai Ming's thoughts, the industrial transformation will definitely promote the economic development and overall expansion of the town, which is an inevitable trend, but the periphery of the town is like a snake building a two-meter-high wall.

And from the perspective of the establishment of the wall, the meaning of its existence is to protect, and from the perspective of the vicious bandits that Bai Ming met before, the world he is in, no, maybe the country where he is located is not peaceful.

And if it is true that Japan fell into a semi-colony after the time of the Black Ship, it is not surprising that the country will be in turmoil, and it is not really meaningless to build a concrete wall.

But on both sides of the intersection of the town, those who looked like they were obviously guarding the town were wearing samurai-like half-body armor, and they were still holding cold weapons such as katana swords, bows and arrows in their hands, which made Bai Ming feel very confused.

In Bai Ming's concept, along with the development of human industrial civilization is the end of the cold weapon war and the emergence of the era of hot weapons, and the possibility of continuing to use cold weapons can be understood in remote small villages, but in this town guard, which is not small in scale and should be officially organized, both the dress and the armament still give people the feeling of being in the era of cold weapons, and there is no sign of the existence of hot weapons, which is very unreasonable.

But after thinking about it, Bai Ming's heart relaxed a little.

Although both cold weapons and hot weapons are dangerous to him, if he just faces cold weapons, he doesn't have to worry about facing the rotten stalks that have changed in the adult era after he has at least practiced martial arts.

Approaching the entrance of the town, Bai Ming stopped looking around, and honestly lined up and walked forward like ordinary people.

The soldiers guarding the entrance did not carefully check the people entering and exiting, nor did they ask anyone to pay the town tax or road guide, which undoubtedly made Bai Ming breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't have those things.

When it was Bai Ming's turn to enter the town, he followed at the back of a convoy, trying to disguise himself as a person in the same convoy, but his heart was in his throat, he lowered his head and glanced slightly in the direction of both sides, as long as there was a slight disturbance, he decided to take the road and escape, and he had already found a route to escape.

One step, two steps......

After more than ten steps, Bai Ming walked into the town smoothly, he continued to keep his head down, did not look around, followed the convoy for dozens of steps, and then left the back of the convoy and blended into the flow of people in the town.

Following the flow of people, Bai Ming settled down and looked at the inside of the largest human gathering place in front of him after he entered this world.

It's not bustling, after all, he's seen too many more prosperous places.

It may have been the time of the market, and most of the people who had entered the town with him had entered the town and turned to the left of the town, and after walking for three or four minutes, a relatively flat camp appeared in front of them.

The camp was full of people, many figures walked around, and there were various stalls on the ground, and all kinds of goods were placed on the stalls, roughly herbs, household utensils, vegetable ingredients and other items.

The people around him spoke in a language he didn't understand, and after listening for a long time, Bai Ming had a deeper idea that he had traveled to Japan.

Although I don't know Japanese, as a Celestial Empire, it's easy to distinguish between Korean and Japanese, and the sounds like 'Yaga' and 'Ya Butterfly' are familiar.

But it's a little strange that although most of the people here have a predominantly black hair color, Bai Ming also sees a number of alternative hair colors other than black.

Gold, flaxen, silvery, brown, pink...

Some hair colors are white, and it can be understood that they may be a mixture of European and American blood, but some hair colors simply don't know how to evaluate them.

And Bai Ming also saw it very clearly, the hair color of these people is very natural and does not look like dyed, but in addition to the hair color, all of them have other physique and facial features that are in line with the saying of the East Asian race in the world before Bai Ming.

"Maybe I've traveled to a parallel world of ancient Japan."

Putting aside this boring confusion and question, Bai Ming walked around the camp and then left to walk towards the streets of the town.

The streets of the town are much more orderly than the chaos of the camp, and most of the shops on both sides are related to daily life, involving firewood, rice, oil and salt, and Bai Ming also saw a flower shop.

Obviously, compared to the chaos and uneasiness that Bai Ming felt outside the town, the environment inside the town was undoubtedly more stable, and the inhabitants living here were more polished and complete in terms of clothing than the humans outside the town.

As he went deeper into the town, the more vigilance in Bai Ming's heart gradually relaxed, and before he knew it, he walked to the middle of the town and saw a lot of people gathered in front of him, as if looking at something.

The human being came up from the curiosity of the crowd, and looked left and right at what seemed to be a normal thing in the eyes of others, and he thought about it and stood up.

He was half a head taller than most of the people here, and when he squeezed in, he could see that these people were actually looking at a long wooden sign that stood there.

There are some sticky notes pasted on the wooden signs, and the sticky notes are written on them, typical of Japanese simplified from Chinese characters, it is obvious that they are talking about the content of the sticky notes, Bai Ming looked at it carefully, except for a few Chinese characters that may not be simplified, he recognized them, and he didn't know the others, and he was as illiterate as if he was illiterate.

The crowd gathered here seemed to be discussing the contents of the billboard, but Bai Ming stood here for a little longer, and found that most of them, like himself, did not recognize the words written on the sticky notes.

So what is the purpose of their standing here?

Obviously not curious, Bai Ming noticed that the people gathered here were basically adult men, judging from their rough clothes and faces, they were not the kind of rich people or scoundrels who were well-fed and idle, and they wasted their time gathering here to support their families, and their purpose was to consider from the most simple ideas.

That is, there are benefits, or benefits that can be obtained from here.

So what was written on the note, he probably guessed it, so he stood there silently and waited quietly.

After about ten minutes, more and more people gathered around, and suddenly with a commotion, the crowded flow of people split a road, and a middle-aged man in his forties wearing brown clothes walked in.

As the man came in, the voices that had been talking around him suddenly became quieter, and the middle-aged man walked to the wooden sign, coughed a few times, slowly removed a note from it, and then read it slowly.

As he spoke, the voices around him became quieter, and as soon as he finished reading, several men rushed in front of him, patting their chests and saying something.

The middle-aged man nodded, then gave them the note, and after the few people took the note, they left happily.

Then the middle-aged man took off the second note and read it, and after reading it, it was similar to the situation just now, and several people rushed to him and said something.

This is repeated, and after a while, the sticky notes attached to the wooden sign are read, and the crowd around is also a lot thinner. Standing in the rest of the pile, Bai Ming frowned deeply, he understood that this was probably something similar to a recruitment sign or something.

If you can find a stable job, you can undoubtedly integrate into the world faster and solve the problem of eating.

However, I don't know how to write or speak, and I'm already in an embarrassing predicament.

As the notes became fewer and fewer, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and just when he was at a loss, he suddenly felt someone tap him on the shoulder.
