Chapter 5: Enter the City!
Weapons?
Jiang Shi frowned.
I really hadn't thought about this question before.
But the world is so dangerous, it really deserves a weapon.
Although this is the foot of Zhenwuguan Mountain, it will not be peaceful.
You must know that the original owner is the villager at the foot of Zhenwuguan Mountain, and it is not the same as being washed in demon blood, and the whole village died tragically?
"Weapons do have to be hit, but what kind of weapon should I fight?"
Jiang Shi touched his chin and thought about it.
"In my opinion, it's best to fight a knife, and the swordsman in this world is the most famous!"
"No, it's best to fight a sword, a swordsman is strong, our famous inner disciple of Zhenwuguan 'Meteor outside the sky' Wu Yuanshan is the sword used."
"Yes, the sword is good, fight the sword!"
A group of splashes spoke.
Jiang Shi suddenly showed disdain.
What sword? What knife?
I am born with divine power, how can I use this thing with innate divine power?
Even if you use a knife, it must be a Daeki knife!
Less than 100 pounds don't need to be considered!
"Okay, don't force me, take me into the city early tomorrow morning, and talk about it when I enter the city!"
Jiang Shi waved his hand.
He was ready to think about what weapon to use.
A group of splashes nodded their heads.
And then they went on to eat,
After the meal was over, everyone dispersed.
In the afternoon, Jiang Shi looked at the panel and thought again.
This time, the reputation value did not continue to increase, and it was still 20.
"Is it because they weren't shocked enough, or is it that Liu Si and the others were shocked last time, and if they are shocked this time, they will not continue to provide prestige points?"
Jiang Shi frowned for a while, doubting in his heart, and finally shook his head lightly, and practiced the dragon snake strength again.
A quick night to pass by.
Early the next morning.
Liu Si, Li San, and Wang Wu gathered at the gate of Jiangshi again and waited.
After Jiang Shi had breakfast, he cleaned up his property and found that the original owner had planted the land for three years, saved money and saved up to now, and only five taels of silver had been accumulated.
It seems like a lot, but in fact, he doesn't know if he can hit a decent weapon.
Jiang Shi sighed secretly, put away the silver, and walked out.
"Boss, how are you?"
Liu Si said with a smile.
"Let's go!"
Jiang Shi spoke.
"Okay!"
A group of splashes nodded their heads and started on their way.
···
From the outer gate of Zhenwuguan to the nearby Iron and Stone City, it was about sixty or seventy miles away.
It's not far, it's not close, but it's not peaceful at all along the way.
Along the way, you can see desolate villages, cracked land, and dead trees everywhere...
On the big trees, the bark and leaves have already been cleaned.
At any time, you can see some blackened dry bones lying on the side of the road, exuding a rich rancid odor, attracting countless flies and buzzing.
Jiang Shi held his breath, and his face instantly became more solemn than ever.
It's one thing to know the context of this world, it's another thing to actually see it.
From the time he crossed to the present, he had been staying at the outer gate of the True Martial Arts Temple, and had never seen the outside world, until he walked out of the outer gate now, and he felt the desolation of this place.
That stinking skeleton clearly belongs to a human being!
"Boss, there will be a lot of bandits along the way, often doing some business to rob merchants, but let's not be afraid, we are wearing the clothes of the outer disciples of the True Martial Arts Temple, and the ordinary bandits don't dare to touch us at all, so they take the initiative to avoid it from afar."
Liu Si patted his clothes and spoke.
"Really?"
Jiang Shi opened his mouth, looked ahead, and said, "What are the large number of people in front of you doing?" ”
"It seems that they are all homeless, homeless people fleeing to Ironstone City."
Liu Si looked at it from afar and spoke.
Hundreds of meters away from them, the crowd was chaotic, and a team of hundreds of people appeared, all in rags, with scattered shawls, and their bodies as thin as they were.
Everyone's face was heavily vegetable, their cheeks were sunken, they couldn't walk, and they seemed to be malnourished for many years.
And they are generally not very tall.
Basically, it is only about one meter and six, and the body is shaky, as if a gust of wind can blow it down.
"Do you often see homeless people here?"
Jiang Shi asked.
"Yes."
"Then why don't they go to the True Martial Arts Temple?"
"Snort, Zhenwuguan doesn't accept everyone, we are all residents near Zhenwuguan, and we have incense love with Zhenwuguan, so Zhenwuguan will temporarily accept us, but these homeless people are different, they have nothing to do with Zhenwuguan, if it is a homeless person, Zhenwuguan will accept it, then Zhenwuguan can raise it?"
Liu Si said disdainfully.
"Yes."
Jiang Shi nodded
They didn't walk with the group of refugees, but from the other direction, they circled around Ironstone.
Even if it is a detour, what you see along the way still greatly refreshes Jiangshi's understanding again.
The land is desolate and endless.
Along the way, I couldn't even see a weed.
At intervals, you can see starving corpses and groups of displaced people, walking and stopping, and their bodies are gloomy.
"If the dynasty of this world does not perish, it will be called really no heavenly reason..."
Jiang Shi muttered to himself in his heart.
···
The Iron and Stone City covers a vast area, and the city gate is made of heavy blue bricks one by one, and the whole city is like a giant beast crawling on the vast plain.
In stark contrast to the bleak desolation of this plain.
Three large fonts, hanging high above the city, exude a sense of the vicissitudes of time.
"Buns!"
"Hot soup, hot soup freshly baked!"
"Eggs, pure crushed free-range eggs!"
···
Bursts of shouting came over and over again from the not wide street in front of me.
a few meters wide on the street. There are vendors, pedestrians, and people everywhere.
There are also a large number of beggars.
Bursts of chaotic scents mingle and keep drilling into people's nostrils.
"Liu Si, which ironshop has the best forging skills?"
Jiang Shi asked.
"Boss Jiang, there is only one blacksmith shop in our Iron and Stone City, which is Wu Ji Iron Shop, and the things there are basically good, just at the intersection in front of you."
Liu Si pointed ahead and opened his mouth to introduce.
Jiang Shi nodded lightly and walked over,
After a while, the sound of clanging iron was heard.
The whole blacksmith occupies a huge area, and the temperature inside is scorching, and seven or eight craftsmen wearing leather belly pockets are standing in front of the stove, embedded with a red-hot iron with a handle, tinkling non-stop.
At a glance, you can see that there are many weapons and agricultural tools on display.
"A few guest officers, do you want to fight weapons or farm tools?"
A man wiped his sweat and walked over.
"This is our boss, of course he's here to fight weapons!"
Liu Si spoke proudly.
"Then I don't know what weapon the guest officer wants to fight?"
The man smiled and looked at Jiang Shi, "We are famous for swords and other weapons, and each sword is made of forged steel, which is absolutely strong. ”
"Forget the sword, are there some other weapons, such as copper hammers, copper maces, and bronze men."
Jiang Shi spoke.
The man's face was stunned and he looked at Jiang Shi.
It seems to suspect that he has misheard.
This guy has such a thin body, and he will fight these heavy weapons when he comes up, even if he is a martial artist, not many people like to use this kind of weapon.
"Not at the moment, but if the guest officer needs it, we can customize it, I don't know if the guest officer is willing?"
The man spoke.
"At what price?"
"If you have a copper hammer, you have to look at the weight, within sixty catties, ten taels of silver for a single handle, within one hundred and fifty catties, twenty taels of silver for a single handle, and a copper mace is slightly cheaper, six taels of silver for a single handle, as for the bronze man, I'm sorry, this has never been beaten."
The man spoke.
"Is that so?"
Jiang Shi frowned for a while.
Damn it.
He only has five taels of silver now, can't he even afford a hammer?
Is copper so expensive in this world?
Or is it more expensive to fight weapons?
