Chapter 16: Into the City
Wei Feng set off early in the morning, and according to his footsteps, it would have only taken more than an hour to arrive, but due to the delay of the portal, it was close to noon when he entered the city gate.
I don't know if Zhai Zhiming was negligent or deliberate, he didn't tell Wei Feng how to get to the capital, Wei Feng was biased towards the latter, because Zhai Zhiming didn't say more than that, he didn't even tell Wei Feng how to meet his teacher, the tutor of the school palace is not always a common people who want to see him, right?
Wei Feng didn't think about this problem, maybe in his heart, it was also a test to let a child like Wei Feng, a native of the village, arrive in Tianyang City alone, after all, the so-called accommodation fee he gave could be more than a dozen taels of silver, and it was hard to guarantee that he didn't mean to be a tester, how could someone who could be admitted to the school palace do things like a fool without thinking about it.
Since Wei Feng didn't think it would be difficult to arrive in Tianyang City on time, he didn't bother to think about it, let you have a thousand layers of routines, and I would deal with it with straight punches.
After a meal, Wei Feng almost asked clearly.
For ordinary people in this world, there are basically three kinds of travel, walking, public transportation, and hitchhiking.
Hiking doesn't need to be explained; Public transportation is ox carts, donkey carts, horse-drawn carts, etc., and if you don't want to take a car, you can just ride an animal, as long as you can endure the bumps along the way; Hitchhiking generally means following the caravan, depending on the amount paid, the caravan will arrange for you to follow in a car or on foot.
The carriage can travel from 100 to 300 miles a day, and renting a carriage is the fastest way, but the ability to resist risks is weaker, and it is safer to follow the caravan, but the caravan is the limit when it goes out of 100 miles every day.
This place is six thousand miles away from Tianyang City, no matter which way, I am afraid that it will take a month to arrive at the earliest, and it will take two or three months to slow down.
After all, this is Wei Feng's first trip, although his current combat strength is much stronger than ordinary people, but considering that there are still cultivators in this world, so for the sake of safety, Wei Feng still plans to follow the caravan for a while, and it is best to go all the way, if it doesn't go well, it is not too late for him to choose to act alone halfway.
Sanglin County belongs to Changping County, which in turn belongs to Yanzhou, which is one of the largest cities in Yanzhou.
Because it is backed by 100,000 barren mountains, all kinds of natural resources are sufficient, and transportation and commerce are also very developed, and there is an endless stream of caravans from all over the year to Changping County and from Changping County to various places.
The caravan to the capital Tianyang City was not difficult to find in Changping County, Wei Feng took the carriage directly to Changping, and Sanglin County was only two hours away from there.
"Today's weather is weirdly tight, why do you stop when it rains......" Halfway through the journey, the driver in front of him muttered quietly.
These words also came out of Wei Feng's ears, and he chuckled, although the dog in his arms didn't know what he was laughing at, he also grinned and narrowed his eyes.
Seeing the humble appearance of the dog, Wei Feng smiled even more happily, but when he thought of something, his laughter gradually subsided, and he suddenly realized that there are cultivators in this world, since ordinary coachmen can realize the strangeness of this rain, is it possible for high-end cultivators to directly see through it?
The more I think about it, the more I think it's possible, after all, this is not an ability obtained from the transfer altar, but a talent that belongs to him, so it can't be ruled out that other people also have the possibility of talent.
I made up my mind to reduce the number of times the Demon Mist Rain was used as much as possible on the road, especially after arriving in Tianyang City, before testing the cultivator's ability, I should not manipulate the rain at will, at most I would sense it when it rained naturally.
The bumps in the carriage were far beyond Wei Feng's imagination, and when the horse trotted up, he could get Wei Feng's butt out of the carriage when he encountered a little rough road, which reminded him of the experience of sitting in the back row when he was a child in the countryside.
There are not many weeds poking their heads out on both sides of the official road, and the ruts on the road are extremely deep, which is enough to show that there are not a few passengers on this road, and most of the carriages transporting goods account for most of them.
There are a lot of silkworm workshops in Sanglin County, and the silk produced over the years is transferred through Changping and supplied to all parts of the country, so there are many rich households in Sanglin County, and there are many villagers in the villages and towns near Sanglin County who make a living by hunting, and there are not a few animal skins sold every year.
"Guest officer, Changping County has arrived." Rushed to the destination non-stop, the coachman opened the curtain, squeezed out a smile on his dark and wrinkled face, and looked at Wei Feng expectantly.
Wei Feng muttered a few times in the ear of the dog, and after getting a reply from it, he counted out a hundred wen from the small purse hanging around its neck and handed it to the coachman, the agreed price was eighty wen, and the extra twenty wen was considered compensation for letting him get more rain along the way.
The coachman took the money, and the smile on his face suddenly brought a little sincerity, and he kept saying auspicious words, watching Wei Feng get out of the car and go away, and then turned around and returned to Sanglin County.
The carriage belongs to the owner, and the coachman is only responsible for catching the car, and the fare needs to be handed over to the owner when he returns, and he only receives the wages paid by the owner every month, but these tips obtained today can all go into his personal pocket, 20 Wen, a lot.
The extra income came in a good mood, and there was no rain on the way back, which made the driver feel more comfortable.
On the other side, Wei Feng also followed the crowd in line into Changping County.
The world seems to have very loose control over civilians, and as long as they do not carry controlled weapons when entering the city, they will basically not be stopped to check their identity documents.
The so-called controlled weapons are bows and crossbows, and ordinary swords are only registered, but they are not forbidden to be brought into the city.
After entering the city gate, the street is lined with all kinds of vendors, among which the most food is sold.
There are many special snacks in Changping County, because the caravans come from all over the world and stay here for a period of time every year, and over time, they bring the practice of special food from all over the world here.
As soon as the dog entered the city, it kept shaking its little nose, and its round eyes never left the snacks placed by the vendors on both sides, and before he had taken a few steps, he used his two front paws to pick up Wei Feng's legs, and looked at him with blank eyes.
Wei Feng, of course, knew what it meant, squatted down and took out the small purse from its neck, took out some copper coins from it and pinched it in his hand, and then hung the money bag on his waist.
He held the copper coin in his right hand, and the dog looked at which vendor, so he went to which vendor to buy a bag, and after a while, the copper plate in his right hand had all been exchanged for snacks in his left hand, but Wei Feng did not hand it directly to Canggou, but slightly appeased it and let it not worry.
Behind him, several pairs of ill-intentioned eyes were already staring at him, but they were all a little hesitant and did not act, Wei Feng seemed to be unconscious, and just walked forward.
