Chapter 6: Into the City
Zhou Tian carried the white-haired, skinny Uncle Tong on his back, while Fang Lin carried his servant Fang Zheng on his back and walked out of the Huangshi Mountain Range with rapid advance. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as I walked out of the Huangshi Mountains, I saw the towering city wall in the distance, how many desolation and prosperity there were also people who walked the sadness of tea and coolness, time destroyed its vicissitudes, but now it is still majestic, like an angry King Kong. Its job is to keep the enemy at bay and make the city impregnable.
The walls are about 30 meters high, made of neat bricks, and there are 20 cave caves at the top of the wall. The towering gate is inlaid with a stone depicting two mighty military generals with a staff in hand, commonly known locally as "Menliren", which means guardian, and it is said that it can suppress bad things and fúráng disasters to bless the people with peace and stability. But today's people are more willing to identify with Jiang Yuan, the city lord, rather than with this gate, after all, the last time the demon beast tide broke out in the Huangshi Mountain Range, it was the Jiang City Lord who rushed in front, not the two stone statues. Now those two people are just a landscape.
The yellow flag, which symbolizes the "southern country", is planted on the wall and flutters in the wind, towering into the sky.
Jiangzhou City, these three words are engraved above the city gate. Zhou Tian stared at these three words, and felt that every stroke of these words was like a sword, rhyming in the scabbard, containing but not pronouncing.
However, no matter how high the walls are, they can't resist the civil strife, and no matter how high and strong the walls are, they can't resist the words of the king of the south: "We surrender." ”
Since then, Nanguo has become a vassal state of Huaguo. I don't know why, Huaguo did not directly annex the southern country, but only exempted the king from the monarchical rights, and set up the king, now although the royal family is on the surface, the scenery is long gone, and the current king is only a symbol of the southern country.
Entering the city, Zhou Tian felt as if he had arrived in the Tang Dynasty of China on earth, where the shouts of street vendors came and went, and the flow of people playing acrobatics at the corners of the streets was always in a circle. A handsome boy wearing a round-necked narrow-sleeved robe, a young woman wearing a short skirt, and a big man in a short-sleeved warrior costume mingled in the crowd. Scenes that were previously only seen in books and on TV are now alive and well all around me.
At this time, the crowded crowd on the street parted in the discussion, and a large group of sword-wielding guards and linen cloth-clad domestic servants walked out in the middle, and the leading butler was not wearing proper makeup, obviously he had just heard the news from his subordinates and rushed over immediately, "Young master, what's wrong with the second master." ”
Fang Lin said in despair: "It's nothing, let's go back and talk about it, hurry up and help save Uncle Tong and Fang Zheng." ”
"Come on, come on, take the second master to the best doctor in the city. All costs I out. The butler's shrill voice shouted, and he handed the servant a small purse.
At this time, the servant in the back immediately brought a stretcher, gently put Uncle Tong on the stretcher, and intimately laid a quilt.
The housekeeper saw Fang Zheng, the servant who was hit by an arrow in Fang Lin's back, and said disapprerovingly: "It's just a domestic servant, the young master doesn't have to worry so much, it's just a cheap life, someone will take him to the family doctor to have a look, and if he dies, notify his family to receive a pension." ”
The two servants who came up from behind were not dissatisfied when they heard this, but flatteringly praised the housekeeper for being right, but they carried Fang Zheng away rudely.
Zhou Tian saw that Fang Zheng had been treated like this, and he felt worthless for him in his heart. Although Zhou Tian and Fang Zheng had no friendship, they encountered such treatment when they saw such a servant who was so loyal to the family, and even willing to sacrifice his life for the family.
"Fang Lin, it's not good to do this. Zhou Tian pointed to Fang Zheng, who had been treated rudely.
"What?" Fang Lin was in a trance, not paying attention to what Zhou Tian said.
The housekeeper on the side glared at Zhou Tian: "Who are you, what does our Fang family's affairs have to do with you?"
Zhou Tian looked at the housekeeper silently, and the housekeeper was a little panicked when he saw it: "What do you want to do?"
"Don't be unreasonable, butler, Brother Zhou Tian is our savior. Fang Lin scolded.
The butler disagreed.
"Brother Zhou Tian, presumably you don't have any place to stay now, why don't you come to our Fang family for a while?"
"It's fine. "Zhou Tian first came into contact with the world, and it was a good time to learn more about it.
I have to say that although the housekeeper carefully arranged Zhou Tian to a remote guest room, the Fang family's greeting was quite thoughtful. Zhou Tian finally took a comfortable hot shower and changed into comfortable and close-fitting clothes. The whole person seems to have taken off the heavy shackles, and his body is light and fluttering.
The original short broken hair has also become today's long hair, with a white dress, these days after the tempering of energy and the baptism of various battles in the Huangshi Mountain Range, now Zhou Tian has a toned figure, exuding a strong masculinity, a handsome man. provoked some of the maids of the Fang family to look back frequently.
Some bold people always take the opportunity to find various excuses to talk to Zhou Tian, such as some say that the kite fell off Zhou Tian's roof, for example, some say that the puppy was lost, and then run to Zhou Tian to find it, and some make a lot of delicious food and ask Zhou Tian to try it......
Although Zhou Tian was just an otaku before the crossing, he had never eaten pork or seen a pig run, and he was not in love, after experiencing the initial embarrassment, Zhou Tian soon used some pickle girl methods that he searched on a certain degree before crossing to get the information he wanted to know. The humorous and polite Zhou Tian soon won the favor of the women.
The topic of girls is always inseparable from buying, buying, buying, and all kinds of gossip.
Zhou Tian learned that the world's common currency in circulation is: lower-grade spirit stones, middle-grade spirit stones, and high-grade spirit stones. As for what you said about the best spirit stone, how could that kind of natural spirit stone with a 100% purity be circulated in the market as currency, this is as a strategic item.
Moreover, only natural top-grade spirit stones will be able to give birth to some derivatives, such as the main material of artificial spirit roots of various attributes - spiritual heart.
The heart of the spirit stone is conceived, and the danguo builds the immortal base one drop by one.
The derivative of the mist-like Danguo bred in the middle of the best spirit stone is called the spirit heart. The concentration of the spiritual heart gradually increases from the outside to the inside, and the sparse part is used as the material for the production of pseudo-spiritual roots, and the higher concentration is the true spiritual root.
Hundreds of years ago, the Dao Alliance's Tiandao Mountain announced the possibility of artificial spirit roots, and announced the mass manufacturing method of pseudo spirit roots that can be implemented, and the best spirit stones are basically not seen in the market, let alone bought.
But because the higher the concentration, the more unstable the spiritual heart part is, a special formation is needed to suppress his spike fluctuations, otherwise it will be easy to blow up. But so far, except for Tiandao Mountain, which can stably produce true spirit roots under extremely harsh laboratory conditions, other general environments cannot effectively suppress the peak fluctuations of the spiritual heart, if there are other spirit stones nearby, the serial explosion will definitely make you physically and mentally painful, the most important thing is distress, after all, the people involved in the research are all extremely deep cultivation.
How do you ask a group of ordinary people who know this kind of thing so clearly?
Because not long ago, a fat man held a joint "Do You Want to Become an Immortal - Spiritual Root Sales Seminar" in Jiangzhou City, and then talked a lot there, and then kept emphasizing that with the development right of the spiritual vein, you can transplant the spiritual root to various immortal cultivation sects, and then if you sell the development right to him first, he can help get a better quality spiritual root, of course, it is only a pseudo spiritual root. But there are also good and bad pseudo-spiritual roots.
When the first discoverer discovers the outlying point of the Spiritual Vein Reporting Alliance, then the right to develop the spiritual vein belongs to him. But since it has been reported, it means that you don't have the ability to develop alone, Daomeng will help you develop as an assistant developer, and the income from development will be divided into 28 shares, and Daomeng accounts for eight, don't look for Daomeng if you are not convinced. The spirit stone vein is not like an ordinary metal vein, which can be dug up with a hammer, and what you knock out with a hammer may be a demon beast of all levels, or it may explode and collapse directly.
Or you can directly sell the development rights in exchange for various resources in Daomeng, including human resources.
"Brother Tian, why do you say roses are red?" Xiao Qin, who often delivers vegetables to Zhou Tian to try dishes, took a red rose to Zhou Tian and asked with a red face. Xiaoqin is the most shy of so many girls who come to Zhou Tian to play, every time she delivers food and various pastries to Zhou Tian, she doesn't say a few words, just sits on the side and blushes and watches Zhou Tian finish eating, and then pack up her things and run away. Recently, for some reason, Celery has become a little bolder.
Zhou Tian ate the osmanthus cake made by Xiaoqin, although the fragrance of osmanthus is not as fragrant as the osmanthus encountered in the Huangshi Mountains, but at least he has an obsession with himself, smelling the fragrance of osmanthus all over the mountains in the Huangshi Mountains, he already has an obsession with the osmanthus cake.
"Oh, Xiaoqin, you want to know why the flowers are so red, right? Zhou Tian ate this osmanthus cake and said vaguely with an affirmative tone, not noticing that there was anything wrong with this sentence.
However, at this time, Fang Lin, who was behind the courtyard gate and was about to push the door in, stumbled when he heard this.
"Yes. Xiaoqin shyly powdered her face, and this innocent little girl didn't feel anything wrong.
"You may not be able to accept it all at once, but slowly accept the feeling and you will love it. There is nothing wrong with this sentence, on the earth, Zhou Tian also likes to study all kinds of things that are not in line with the common sense of others, but when he successfully understands the truth thoroughly, he will have a hearty pleasure, and he likes this feeling very much.
Although Xiaoqin didn't understand this sentence very well, she nodded, thinking in her heart that after all, Brother Tian is so knowledgeable, and it is normal for me to not understand his words, I am so stupid Brother Tian is willing to teach me, what a good person. Zhou Tian didn't know that he had been issued a good person card.
Brother Zhou Tian is really elegant, forget it, I still won't bother. Fang Lin consciously walked away.
