Chapter 4: Wanhuzhou (II)

In places where the ancient wheel passage is dense, there are special cargo channels, even ordinary people can use them, however, to open the channel, you still need cultivators, at least you need a secret wheel master, this kind of channel is only limited to a specific place, and the distance will not exceed eight hundred kilometers, the crystal used is the same as the wheel ring, and the wheel ring can also be opened, of course, the wheel ring is more precious, this crystal, Lei Xingfeng himself can also condense.

I watched the one-horned buffalo pull the cart, one after another into the arched gate, and disappeared into it in an instant.

Tan Da and Wu Zhen also saw it for the first time, they both stood in a daze, and after a while, Tan Da said: "This is too convenient! ”

Lei Xingfeng said: "Where are we located...... It's too remote, and only a few of the ancient wheel passages can be used there, so they can't open this kind of ...... Well, for commercial passages, it is certain that in ancient times, Wanhuzhou was extremely developed. ”

Tan Da nodded and said: "Our caravans there all use ships, and the range of activities is extremely small, at most a few hundred kilometers is very remarkable, where is it convenient here." ”

Lei Xingfeng knew the benefits of convenient transportation in his previous life, and he said: "Okay, let's go, hey, I was stunned just now, I should ask them." ”

Tan Da said: "There's no need, just from the way they came...... In the past, hehe, I believe it should be a densely populated area, even if there are no big cities, there should be market towns. ”

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "Okay, let's go over." "I can only walk over, although this place is the place where the wheel is opened, it is quite deserted, even if it is a caravan, not any caravan can use the wheel point to sell goods through the ancient wheel channel, it is estimated that those big business houses have this ability.

The three of them walked along the main road where the convoy had come.

In about half a day, the three of them saw that there were some farmland on the side of the road, fragmented, and did not form a piece of field, most of them were paddy fields, not as expected by Lei Xingfeng, they were all rice, and the farmland here was blocked by fences, it is estimated that there are too many wild animals at this time, if they are not blocked, it may affect the harvest.

In the distance, you can vaguely see the small village, hidden in the woods, you can see wisps of cooking smoke, curling up, all the way over, Lei Xingfeng is full of praise, it is definitely a picture scroll, the scenery along the road, beautiful.

I rarely saw people along the way, and I often walked for about ten minutes to see the ordinary people who were busy in the farmland from a distance, and the number of people was very small, only two or three, even if the population here was a dense area, but compared to Lei Xingfeng's previous life, there were still too few people here.

Gradually, the road surface improved significantly, and the road surface smashed with gravel was at least easier to walk on than muddy ground.

There were also more people on the road, most of them were farmers, carrying burdens and baskets, and the direction of Lei Xingfeng's three people walking, Lei Xingfeng also paid attention to observing, most of the burdens and baskets were agricultural products, and these people should go to the market town to sell local products.

Lei Xingfeng said with a smile: "There is definitely a market town in front, if you are lucky, there may be a city." ”

Tan Dalang smiled: "There must be, hehe, so many people are carrying things, and it is a strange thing that there is no market town in front." ”

Sure enough, when I turned a forest along the road, I saw the black roofs, and because there was a low forest, these roofs were like boats floating on green waves, and I don't know how many roads there were.

Wu Zhen said excitedly: "This is a big city!"

Tan Da shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be a big city...... He has a little more knowledge than Wu Zhen, and he has heard some descriptions of big cities, and now it seems that these houses are not enough to prove that this is a big city.

Lei Xingfeng smiled: "This is a market town, it won't be too big...... Up to two to three streets. According to his point of view, a small market town is also a street, a medium market town has two or three streets, a large street town has almost five or six streets, and no more than ten streets at most, while a small city has at least ten or more streets, and as for a large city, without a hundred and ten streets, it is impossible to form the atmosphere of a big city.

Wu Zhen exclaimed: "This is the market town, the big city...... How big is it going to be?"

Tan Da said: "When you come out this time, you can definitely see the big city." ”

These two guys are standard hillbillies, they really haven't seen the world, in the remote water town of Wanhuzhou, a water gathering point, at most a thousand people, all of a sudden to see such a large market town, both of them were surprised in their hearts.

According to Lei Xingfeng's estimates, this market town will not exceed 20,000 people at most, and in his concept, this is a very ordinary small market town.

The people in this world are dressed similarly, according to Lei Xingfeng, it is just to cover the body and keep warm, except for cultivators, of course, the precious clothing is silk, the silk here is different from the silk in the previous life, the silk here is more colorful, and the silk here, in addition to the silkworm, there is also a kind of spider silk weaving, this spider silk is stronger, the color is more gorgeous, and of course the output is less.

As for ordinary people, they are rarely able to wear silk, and the price is really not affordable for ordinary people, most of the clothes of ordinary people are linen clothes and cloth clothes, and there is also a kind of clothes and pants made of tree bark, so the colors are mostly gray and black, and there is dark blue, the color is gray, so on the road, as long as you see people in bright clothes, almost all of them are cultivators, and it is very easy to distinguish them.

Therefore, the three of Lei Xingfeng, after entering the small market town, were very prominent, because they were wearing silk clothes and pants.

Almost all ordinary people, when they saw the three of them, had an extremely respectful look, and bowed their heads and retreated, not daring to approach.

Lei Xingfeng smiled: "We are like beasts entering the city, hehe, they are all avoiding us." ”

Wu Zhen was a little puzzled and said, "They are afraid of us!" In the water town, although ordinary people are also in awe of cultivators, because the number of people is too small, they are all familiar with each other, and there is no problem with communication at all, there is almost no big barrier, and there seems to be an invisible gap here, separating ordinary people from cultivators.

Lei Xingfeng said: "Nonsense, you are a cultivator, you are a thousand wheel masters, killing them is like killing chickens, they are not afraid of you, who else are they afraid of?"

Wu Zhen shook his head and said, "I won't kill people for no reason, there's no need to be afraid of this." ”

Lei Xingfeng said: "You won't kill people for no reason, but it may not be that there are no cultivators who kill indiscriminately, as long as there are a few such people, do you think ordinary people will be afraid, just like we did before...... In the same situation, the entire town was almost slaughtered by cultivators, what could they do?"

Tan Dadao: "So ordinary people will rely on cultivators...... Hehe, this place must also be within the range of the power of a certain sect, and foreign cultivators will not kill people indiscriminately, that is the power that will offend and protect them. ”

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "I think it's the same, a market town without the protection of cultivators is almost a fat sheep. ”

Wu Zhen was puzzled: "What kind of fat sheep, what is a fat sheep?"

There are sheep in this world, but there are no sheep in the water town, so Wu Zhen doesn't know about it.

Tan Da was knowledgeable, he said: "A very docile animal, the meat is delicious. ”

Wu Zhen immediately understood what a fat sheep was, it was delicious! The so-called fat sheep was slaughtered and eaten. He said, "Well, I understand, but there are very few such market towns, and even if we have market towns there, there are cultivators stationed, and there are no cultivators, so it seems that we haven't seen them yet. ”

After a period of training, Lei Xingfeng also understood that in this world, although cultivators account for a small part of the total population, they are all over the world, and they can really be seen in every small corner, almost all the local tyrants and inferior gentry in this world are cultivators, even if they fail in some places, as long as they can find a place where there are people, they can live comfortably, and their means are nothing more than the strength of ordinary people.

Wu Zhen said: "I'm hungry, there seems to be a restaurant in front." ”

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "Go and see, I'm hungry too." ”

Tan Da said: "I don't know what is delicious here, I hope there are some special meals." "It is also the right of cultivators to be able to taste the special dishes of various places, in this world, that is, cultivators have the ability to travel long distances and travel to various places, this is an experience, and it is also an experience that can be shown off, because of the relationship of cultivation, every cultivator has a good appetite and can eat far more food than ordinary people.

This is a small restaurant facing the street, with a reed shed and three long tables outside, and the inside of the house is a little more elaborate, with two square tables and a circle of round wooden stools, and there are three or two farmers eating under the reed shed outside, and the two tables in the room are empty.

Lei Xingfeng and the three of them swaggered in, Wu Zhen ordered: "Come on!" The appearance of the standard master, but there is no servant by his side, and the most regrettable thing is that this big man has to go out in person to do the work of the housekeeper and servant.

Fortunately, there were many cultivators here, and the shopkeeper was not afraid, so he ran in, nodded and said, "Three great masters, what are your orders?"

Wu Zhen said: "What special dishes are served, uncle is hungry!"

Lei Xingfeng couldn't help laughing, and then he began to call himself an uncle, but unfortunately this uncle's momentum was still a little smaller, but the shopkeeper was not surprised, and said continuously: "Please sit, please sit, I will cook it myself, hehe, I dare not guarantee that the master is satisfied, but it must be the best dish in the shop." ”

Wu Zhen said: "The portion is a little bigger. ”

This is also the characteristic of cultivators, the shopkeeper is very clear, he said: "I understand, hehe, please take a seat, I will come when I go!"
