Chapter 545: Extenuating Circumstances
According to Teacher Duxue's positioning, Jinyou's current location is in Dashun Mountain Longbang.
On the one hand, the store has not done well recently, and the last batch of orders has been completed, and the follow-up orders have not come in.
The carriage stopped at the entrance to the Dashun border, and in front of it was a long procession, for an empire like Dashun, this situation happened almost every day, of course, there were also people who could take the special passage, but this kind of person was either an envoy from a foreign country or a dignitary.
Luo Tian They are just ordinary people, so they can only wait, Luo Bi in the carriage said with a smile: "The system of Dashun is different from other countries, the emperor of Dashun is not very powerful, and the really powerful ones are the leaders of those strong states of Dashun." โ
"Oh, this is unusual, Emperor Dashun is not as good as Xiaobangling?" Luo Tian asked with a smile.
At the beginning of the founding of the country, today's Dashun royal family is just a small clan, the founder of Dashun is an ambitious talent, with a small plan, secretly united many indigenous territories, united into a large army, captured a piece of land to establish a country, but after all, there are not many soldiers under his hands, and he has to rely on these natives to resist foreign enemies to build a countryใ โ
"Isn't that a mess?" asked the big worm curiously.
"Yes, at first, these sub-states can still get along, but after a long time, they often friction and even attack each other, and the central royal family is responsible for mediation, the original idea of the founding lord of Dashun is to let these sub-states attack each other, wear down the strength of each other, and then the Dashun royal family took the opportunity to become bigger, but he overestimated the ability of his children and grandchildren, after the founding lord died of illness, the successors of the later were far less than his talents, and over time, the states annexed each other and became stronger, and the strength of the central royal family is getting weaker and weaker, and now, there is a saying on the big 6, ten years later, Da Shun is still Da Shun, but the royal family may not be the original royal familyใ โ
"What do you mean by that?" asked the worm, confused.
"That is to say, today's Dashun royal family is still in power, in addition to some of its own strength, the main reason is that the states are fighting each other and containing each other, and no one has the strength to win the lord of Dashun, but if a strong state appears ten years later, the other states will be defeated, then the position of the Dashun royal family will change hands, so ten years later, Dashun is still Dashun and the royal family may not be the original royal family. โ
The carriage moved forward slowly, and when it reached the border pass, it was still daytime, and by the time it was already dark.
"After entering the customs, it is the Shanlong State, the Shanlong State is an old state, and it has been established for four or five hundred years, which is longer than the time when your Yunshan State was established, and it belongs to one of the stronger sub-states of Dashun today. โ
At night, Luo Tian they found an inn to settle down, the inn of Shanlongbang is quite interesting, and the kind of two- or three-story wooden building on the big 6 is different, the inn here is built underground, and there is a low house built of stone on the ground, as a place for the shopkeeper Xiao Er to receive guests, after checking in, Xiao Er will take the guests to the ground and choose a room.
It is said that this is because the Sanryu State was often attacked by wild beasts hundreds of years ago, and for safety reasons, the people of the Sanryu State lived underground to ensure safety.
I thought it would be dark underground, but in fact the light was very good, torches were lit everywhere, the place was spacious and clean, the room was located on the basement floor, and then went down to the second basement floor was the hall where the guests drank and ate.
Luo Tian and Yin Jiu lived in a room, and after Yin Jiu put down his luggage, Luo Tian asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, see you don't talk much all the way?"
Yin Jiu was stunned, shook his head and didn't say anything, but his face was gloomy, as if he was preoccupied.
"Hehe, pack up and eat, I'm hungry. Luo Tian didn't ask much and walked out.
In the underground restaurant, the green bamboo wine unique to Shanlongbang is drunk, and the wine is poured into the bamboo, and there is a faint fragrance when drinking.
In the restaurant, a group of scantily clad girls with graceful bodies are singing and dancing.
A group of big men whistled not to mention, but also moved their hands and feet, what Luo Tian didn't expect was that the restaurant was not an order system, but a huge platform in the center, and all the guests sat around the table to eat together.
"This is also the custom of the Shan Long Bang, in the past, after hunting, the prey would be cooked and then given to the whole village to enjoy, the people of the Shan Long Bang liked this atmosphere of eating together, the girls danced to have fun, the men drank and chatted and even fought, and now this custom has also been continued, and they eat not ordinary food. โ
Soon, the shop began to serve food, and six or seven big men slowly walked over with a huge iron plate, and a seven-meter-long wild beast was cooked and served to the table.
"They eat wild beasts?" Luo Tian said with some surprise.
"What's so strange about this, most of the states of Dashun eat wild beasts, it is this wild and primitive way of life that makes their combat effectiveness amazing, wild beasts are the main dish, and the chickens, ducks and fish on the plate are all auxiliary materials, no matter how much you eat, in the end it will be counted as one or two silver. โ
"Isn't that a loss for the store?"
"Haha, the meat of the wild beast is firm, I have eaten it in the past, and I will not be hungry after two or three mouthfuls, and I will basically be full after a few sips of wine, so don't look at such a wild beast and we eat so many people, in fact, the store still makes money, but I am afraid that today is an exception, after all, we have a big stomach here." โ
The big worm was full of mouths, and as soon as the dish plate was put down, he immediately started eating frantically, and the children who poured wine next to him were taken aback.
Luo Tian has also eaten the meat of the wild beast, it is indeed not delicious, it is too difficult to chew, but the taste of the cooking here is good, and after eating two mouthfuls, he will not be hungry, and after taking a sip of wine, he asked: "Why can't Yin Jiu come down, does this guy have something on his mind recently?"
"Hehe, see that?" Luo Bi said with a smile, "He has been sullen since the Huci Treasure Knife was smashed, perhaps because the first high-level treasure device was destroyed." โ
After eating for a while, the shopkeeper came to toast with a wine glass, although the people of Shanlongbang are not tall, they are born with a large skeleton and look quite strong.
"Guests from afar, I would like to toast you and wish you all the best in our Shanlong State. โ
"Why didn't he say that we Da Shun?"
"Hehe, because the sub-states don't look down on the royal family, each sub-state regards its own territory as its own territory, and it is nominally ruled by the Da Shun royal family, but in fact, the people in the sub-state do not recognize themselves as Da Shun people. โ
After drinking a few glasses, Luo Tian saw that Yin Jiu hadn't come down yet, so he got up and went upstairs to look, and when he walked to the next room, he saw that the door of the room was not closed, and he could hear whispers coming from inside.
"The little master came back this time, it seems that he caused some trouble, the master asked us to come out and have a look, and said that he would come back and report when he saw the people who inquired about the little master. โ
Luo Tian didn't care, this kind of conspiracy is born every day on the 6th, and if you bump into it, you don't hear it, just walk over.
But as soon as he raised his foot to leave, he heard another person say: "I also think it's strange, the little young master studied well in the Ling Pavilion, and he said that he would come back later, but he suddenly returned home two days ago, but something happened to the Ling Pavilion, and it is understandable that the little young master escaped back." โ
Hearing the words Lingge, Luo Tian stopped.
It seems that Shanlongbang only has one student, Jinyou, so the little young master that these two servants said is not Jinyou?
According to the information of Jinyou when he entered school, he was the heir of a noble family in Shanlongbang, and his family had a very high status in Shanlongbang, and he also had a close relationship with the leader of Shanlongbang.
"It's better for us to be small or less inquired about the adults, let's go out and have a look, and I'll report back to the house later." โ
Hearing someone coming this way, Luo Tian hurriedly turned around, opened the door and walked into his room, hearing the footsteps outside, Luo Tian put his mind at ease, and looked back to see that Yin Jiu was smoking a cigarette.
"Something on your mind?" Luo Tian asked.
Yin Jiu came back to his senses and shook his head at Luo Tian and said, "No, I'm not very hungry." โ
"Oh, I'll ask them to bring you something to eat, I'll go out first and have something to do, don't be hungry." After Luo Tian finished speaking, he opened the door and quietly followed the two servants who had just spoken.
