Chapter 7: First Encounter x Wine Aroma

The deep jungle is silent again.

After waiting for a long time, they didn't feel the familiar breath, and the beasts lurking nearby moved one after another, and they all approached the lake. Then, the scene that made them go crazy in an instant appeared.

Although Ji Yan put almost all the wolf corpses into the wheel space and took them away before leaving, those broken flesh and blood still remained in place. The scent of the silver wolf's flesh and blood exuded an extreme temptation, and the beasts immediately had red eyes, and rushed towards this side like crazy, fighting for the flesh fragments scattered around the lake.

The competition of the beasts is in full swing, and suddenly-

Several silver rays broke through the air, flashing with a trace of cold light, and swept in one fell swoop, and more than a dozen beasts fell to the ground and died on the spot.

The remaining beasts wailed and fled.

A majestic and domineering figure slowly emerged from the dark jungle. It is a man, with silver hair and a shawl, his facial features are hard and firm, and his exposed muscles seem to be poured with molten iron, giving people an irresistible sense of intimidation.

The silver eyes turned, the cold light was like electricity, and after scanning the circle, his gaze fell somewhere - it was the place where the Silver Wolf King died.

His eyebrows furrowed, and his gaze instantly became extremely cold and gloomy.

"A people who are about to transform into a successful people...... He was killed by humans...... Provoke the majesty of the Silva royal family, so daring!"

The wings of his nose opened slightly, and the information he obtained made him can't help but hook the corners of his mouth: "Ancestor Blood Curse...... All the humans involved in this, wherever you flee, I, Kane Silva, will show you the wrath of the Silver Wolf Royalty!"

On the other side, Ji Yan had no idea that the silver wolf he killed casually had provoked an unknown terrifying enemy for himself. He spent the night in the hut and continued the next day in the direction of his original destination.

Nothing to say all the way.

Around three o'clock in the afternoon, I finally found a crowd!

A dirt road came into his sight!

The dirt road was potholed, more dilapidated than the roads in the countryside of the main plane, and it floated in the dust at the slightest start.

After identifying the direction of the footprints above, Ji Yan chose a direction and strode forward.

"I finally know what the book says about 'catching the wind and washing the dust', such a trip is definitely full of wind and dust......" Ji Yan walked alone against the dust, entertaining himself.

Not long after, a bridge came into view, it was a wooden bridge made of several tree trunks, and a stream of water flowed under the wooden bridge, rattling, and the cool breath emitted made Ji Yan feel refreshed.

Raise your eyes and look into the distance, you can vaguely see people!

After looking around to make sure that no one was there, Ji Yan began to disguise himself - put some of the equipment on his body back into the wheel space, and took out the large backpack prepared in advance and some other props used for camouflage from the space.

Soon, the originally heavily armed Ji disappeared and was replaced by a guy in a rough jungle camouflage suit, a ridiculous hood, and a half-man tall backpack.

Humming a little song, with the yearning for the future (wealth) to (wealth), Ji Yan went straight to the place where the traces of people appeared!

Milap Village (meaning "Harvest") is a very ordinary village, with more than 60 households and more than 200 people, almost all of whom are honest farmers, living a repetitive life every day until their lives are gone.

On this day, a "big news" quietly came, and it spread throughout Mirap at a shameful speed, and everyone knew about it.

Strangers have come to the village!

A strange fellow, according to reliable grapevine, seems to be a [traveling merchant]!

The so-called traveling merchant is the kind of merchant who does not want to die in order to make a fortune and runs around the world with relatively rare goods to earn the difference. Strictly speaking, they are not actually businessmen, because most of them are small groups of three or five people, and some are even afraid of death and simply work alone.

The wilderness of this world is very dangerous, and a large part of the traveling merchants will become food for the beasts, and even if they manage to make their way through the terrifying wilderness to the town, they will not necessarily be able to make money......

The reason is very simple, eight times out of ten people who play barefoot all year round will not use shoes!

If this happens, the traveling merchant can only consider himself unlucky.

Needless to say, the strange foreigner in the mouth of the villagers is Ji Yan.

He is treated as a traveling merchant, but the story that takes place during this period is far less "beautiful" than the villagers' hearsay.

After entering Milap Village, he was noticed for the first time in strange clothes, and then, not long after, dozens of villagers rushed over and surrounded him. Many of the villagers were holding dung forks, wooden sticks and other weapons in their hands, and the corners of Ji Yan's mouth twitched when they saw it.

Ji Yan raised his hands and smiled, indicating that he had no malicious intent.

"Outlander, what do you want to do here?" asked a thin old man with gray hair and wrinkled face but in good spirits, as he stepped out of the crowd. He was the head of Mirap Village, and everyone called him Old Vigien.

Ji Yan continued to smile and release kindness, and he was about to cry in his heart: Damn, it's not English, it's not Japanese, it's not Chinese...... it, I don't understand it at all...... I don't even have a language benefit for Mao, and I'm too much of a failure......

In desperation, he could only come up with the most "next step" prepared in advance-

He stretched out his finger and pointed to his ear, then to his mouth, and shrugged his shoulders with a very helpless expression......

"Deaf and dumb, what about the liar!" it seems that body language is the lingua franca of all planes, but unfortunately old Virgin is obviously not so easy to deceive.

As one of the few people in the village and even in this area who has "seen the world", Old Virgin saw through the anxiety, entanglement and other complex emotions under Ji Yan's stiff smile at a glance, he didn't pay attention to the villagers who were shouting in a mess, stepped forward, stretched out the sword in his hand to Ji Yan, and asked sharply: "Tell me, what is your purpose?!"

The iron sword, which was well maintained by its owner, flashed a trace of cold light in the sunlight, making Ji Yan's pupils shrink. He was actually not afraid of being surrounded by these villagers, one was that his own soaring strength gave him confidence, and the other was that the "weapons" in the hands of the surrounding villagers did not seem to be lethal. But there are exceptions.

Several of the villagers had iron weapons in their hands, but old Virgin was the only one who had such an "extraordinary" weapon.

This just made Ji Yan a little jealous.

But the purpose of his trip was only to seek wealth, and he did not want to conflict with people.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.

Ji Yan slowly took off his backpack, patted it, made a few gestures, and then made the action of taking out the money from the money bag to collect the money, and danced for a while.

At this moment, not only did old Virgien understand, but even the villagers on the side showed expressions of sudden realization one after another—it turned out to be a merchant, or a legendary traveling merchant!

Traveling merchants are scarce, especially in remote villages like Mirap, which have no special products, and it is rare to see them once in a lifetime, and most of the villagers have only heard of them.

The surrounding atmosphere was instantly relaxed. Ji Yan, who was aware of this, couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Only old Virgin was on his guard.

He politely welcomed Ji Yan into the village and arranged a place for him to live, but secretly arranged several young and strong villagers to guard the surroundings, and told them to do it directly if Ji Yan had any misdeeds!

Old Virgin knew that the traveling merchants had some means of self-preservation, but due to his knowledge, no matter how he looked at Ji Yan, he didn't look like those very powerful existences - "those people" would not be polite to them with mud legs!

......

Inadvertently, it has been two days since Ji Yan came to Milap Village.

Two days was enough time for him to get a feel for the situation in this small village. Of course, he was also clear about the little tails behind him, and he just pouted about it, although he was unhappy, he could still understand it.

In the past two days of wandering, in addition to the village, Ji Yan also probably had a guess about the situation in the other world he was in.

From the aspects of architectural style, crop types, clothing, food, housing, and transportation, Ji Yan judged that the degree of development of the productive forces in this different world was roughly equivalent to the medieval period in Europe!

This discovery made him secretly happy: the goods he brought were not sold!

Day 3.

"Whew~~ The air is so good!" After washing up and opening the door, Ji Yan took a deep breath and stretched his waist, his face full of pleasure.

He picked up the large backpack he had used to hide his eyes again, and walked straight towards a clearing in the village. There are a few large trees to support the shade, and the villagers usually like to get together to chat and fart to pass the time, which can be regarded as the political and cultural center of the village......

In addition, the village's mills, blacksmiths, wineries, bakeries, cheese shops and other very important buildings are also located around the open space, and an "economic center" must be added.

Ji Yan's sudden movement made the people who were watching lose their bearings, they discussed for a while, and sent two people, one to inform Old Vijin, one to inform the other strong men in the village, and the remaining few people grabbed their weapons and followed closely behind Ji Yan.

For the "weird" Ji Yan, they were still very scared in their hearts and didn't dare to act rashly.

In their entanglement along the way, Ji Yan came to his destination.

Two days was enough time for Ji Yan's "fame" to spread to the ears of every villager, and his arrival instantly became the focus of everyone, all eyes were focused on him, whispering endlessly, like a large group of flies buzzing non-stop, which was really disturbing.

"It's crooked, and it saves me a lot of trouble. Ji Yan glanced at the villagers who had followed him all the way, shouted a few times before they mustered up the courage to rush up, and then opened his backpack and took out some pre-prepared goods from it.

He had only two goods to prepare.

Sugar!!

Beer!!

The former is made into palm-sized bags from paper bags, and the latter is packed in transparent glass bottles with peeled labels, which looks very high-end and elegant, and as soon as it appears, it instantly attracts the attention of all the onlookers.

Ji Yan tore open a small paper bag, revealing white sugar grains.

He dipped some into his mouth, looked intoxicated, and motioned for everyone to taste it too.

The villagers pushed me and chattered, but no one dared to come forward to taste.

The scene suddenly became very awkward.

The corners of Ji Yan's eyes jumped, and his expression was so stiff that he couldn't do it.

Taking a deep breath, he pulled the cork from a glass bottle—the one he had prepared beforehand.

The wine is full of aroma!

In an instant, Ji Yan noticed that the breathing sound of all the men present became heavy!!

"It's done!!" Ji Yan smiled proudly and sat down on the Diaoyutai steadily.
