Planetary Museum

When the team arrived at the gate of the city, Shen Changwen found that during the half month since he left, a lot of wooden sheds had been set up outside the city of Elis, and there seemed to be a lot of people sleeping inside.Just as they entered the city, Shen Changwen saw hundreds of people outside the city, being directed by whistles to eat cakes.

It seems that what Wu Xiaoqing said is right, there is almost no room for so many people in the city now, so we can only temporarily move some people out of the city.

Their passing was like a magnet passing through a pile of iron filings, and countless people followed naturally after smelling the smell of spices in the air.Finally, it was blocked by a group of nobles' vassals.

Among the nobles who came to welcome, many of them knew Tallinn, and they all knew Tallinn.According to the past, although Tallinn was the chief of the king's bodyguard, he still had to salute in front of these nobles.But today, Tallinn didn't even get off his horse, but nodded slightly condescendingly to the nobles below, and then signaled for the troops to enter the city.

The lords didn't care about Tallinn's attitude. Their eyes were more focused on the horse team behind, the spices in the soldiers' pockets, and the shiny gold coins in their hands.Some soldiers were obviously a little excited by the large crowd of onlookers, and someone would suddenly throw the gold coins in their hands into the distance.Following the trajectory of the gold coin, a large number of onlookers almost immediately moved towards the direction of the gold coin.

After the first lucky guy grabbed the gold coin, he immediately screamed: "Gold coin!"

"Haha, that's right," the soldier who threw out the gold coin responded loudly, "The gold coin was snatched from the puppies of Xiaoyang Sect in the south!"

"Get one now, my lord." Someone in the crowd shouted.

"Haha, okay, here's one." The soldier took out another one and showed it in front of everyone, but before he could enjoy enough attention, everyone's eyes followed the other ones in the air. Jin Guang turned his eyes away - it was thrown by his comrades who couldn't wait.

The crowd of onlookers, who seemed to be orderly at first, immediately became noisy and chaotic after just a few gold coins.

Not only the crowd, but also the Guards soldiers they brought out became excited one by one. As the crowd became agitated, the soldiers quickly threw more gold coins towards the crowd.The rain of gold coins sprinkled into the crowd was like torches thrown into haystacks, and the atmosphere around the entire team was instantly ignited by the gold.

Shen Changwen immediately contacted Wu Xiaoqing: "Wu Xiaoqing, where are you? Something is wrong, please maintain order." Shen Changwen clearly heard the shouts among the crowd robbing gold coins.

"It has already been dispatched," Wu Xiaoqing said, but soon became frustrated. "It seems to be useless. The soldiers who were dispatched also went to grab the money. You tell your men not to throw money."

Shen Changwen turned around to look at the soldiers behind him. Why didn't he ask Tallinn to persuade him immediately, but there was only one Tallinn, and the number of captains he could directly command was only four or five, and the hundreds of soldiers obviously At this moment, the audience's attention has been completely attracted. They are like matadors on the bullring, boxers on the ring, with only the cheers of the audience in their ears. As for the orders of their superiors, they have forgotten all about them. back.And this sensitive time period, under the watchful eyes of everyone, is obviously not suitable for them to carry out military orders.

Each soldier was only given seven or eight gold coins. Originally, these gold coins were distributed after a week around the city, but now, they had only entered the city for less than two miles.At the request of the audience, some soldiers even took out some pepper from a plastic bag and threw it at the crowd.

If the gold coin is the kindling that ignites the hay, then the pepper is the gasoline that is sprinkled on the flame.Compared with gold coins that are easier to grab and more visible, peppers are smaller in size, but they are more attractive to people.Wu Xiaoqing stood high on the city wall and saw that every time the soldiers threw out a handful of pepper, all the people in front of him knelt down, not praying, but groping for pepper on the ground.

This kind of scene gave him a feeling of déjà vu. Thinking carefully, when he and Shen Changwen were chased by a group of peasants, didn't they escape by throwing glass beads?At that time, the appearance of those farmers touching glass beads in the field was the same as the ones in front of them...

No, Wu Xiaoqing stared wide-eyed, and carefully looked through the binoculars at those people who were touching pepper all over the ground—those people were not farmers, or even citizens of Ellis in the general sense, they... they seemed to be nobles !They are all nobles who have mastered a lot of land, have fixed rents, and other commercial projects!And these people, even lying on the ground touching pepper?

Is pepper so delicious?The crowd in front of them, no matter they are nobles or commoners, are desperately groping for small pepper granules in the ground made up of mud and horse manure. The crazy look is like a drug addict. Sometimes, desperately looking for the feeling of drugs.

After just a few minutes, Wu Xiaoqing unexpectedly discovered that the appearance of Pepper miraculously saved the chaotic order. The crowd suddenly became quiet, and no one shouted or cheered, and no one even raised their heads. Come to see these heroes, but concentrate on searching for any possible wealth in this small piece of land under your feet.

But in the front where no pepper has been sprinkled, there is still a huge crowd of people gathering.Before getting close, you can hear the crowd shouting a few words noisyly. Shen Changwen didn't understand it for the time being, but he can probably guess the meaning, but for Wu Xiaoqing, there is only one word on the subtitles that keeps repeating in the whole glasses : "Pepper! Hero! Pepper! Hero!"

The king's affairs officer excitedly recorded this scene with a pen: In the summer of [-]xx, the guards sent by His Majesty King Elis to the south returned to the city smoothly. Four hundred horses were loaded with spices and sugar, and the triumphant soldiers were waving Gold coins and pepper, the whole city is boiling over!The head of the guard Tallinn was named "Pepper Hero" for this reason...

Of course, behind the praise, it means that the soldiers need to pay. At this time, the soldiers have been completely lost their minds by the fanatical crowd. Facing the wealth that they can't earn in a few lifetimes, several soldiers actually went out in public and put The whole bag of peppers was gone!When those pepper granules were flying all over the sky and falling towards the crowd, there was a chant from the crowd: "Long live the pepper hero!"

"Long live!"

The soldiers waved their swords and shields excitedly, and made sounds with their rhythmic flapping.The rhythm of this knocking seemed to make the entire ground of the royal city tremble. Wherever this team went, the crowd shouted slogans in accordance with the rhythm.

"Pepper! Hero! Pepper! Hero!"

Accompanied by these two words, everyone walked around Elis City for a full circle.When they finally came to the square, many soldiers had already emptied their plastic bags, but they didn't show any regrets, and they were more excited than each other. Excessive flushing can be seen.

"Well done, lads!" His Majesty Ellis expressed his sincere appreciation for the behavior of the Guards soldiers who don't love money and honor. When inspecting the troops, he didn't see a single empty plastic bag, he would go up and pat the opponent on the shoulder to express his popularity, "As expected of my guards, today you lose pepper for honor, tomorrow you will gain the whole world for honor!"

"Why is this word so familiar?" Wu Xiaoqing stared at Xu Yan next to him, "You wrote the manuscript?"

"I wrote it, but he changed it. The original wording is not like this. I didn't expect that there would be such a thing as pepper." For a gimmick.

After inspecting the troops, the king picked up the loudspeaker that Wu Xiaoqing had given him, and started the speech in the expected procedure.

Naturally, the four modern people could not understand a single word of the speech. Wu Xiaoqing could only see the subtitles and the expressions of other people and soldiers.

"All the subjects of Elis, your king is speaking to you, your king is giving you orders, your king is ready to lead you to usher in an unprecedented new era!"

Wu Xiaoqing had read the speech, but it was obviously different from the text on the subtitles. The king was obviously ready to play it himself, but that's okay, the manuscript written by Xu Yan did have a strong MLM habit.

"The Dayang Sect in the north is aggressive. They threatened to make me hand over my army to fight for them in the south, or wait for God's punishment in their own city! Yes, they claimed that my illness was a warning and punishment from their gods! The South The Xiaoyang Sect is besieging Front Tooth Fort, once the city is broken, they will sweep towards the entire Kingdom of Elis..."

These contents are actually nothing to listen to. Wu Xiaoqing is more concerned about the expressions of most people. He is afraid that there will be uncontrollable group accidents on this occasion.In the medieval era, such accidents were very likely to happen, and once it happened, it would be very difficult to resist, and it would easily turn into a riot in the whole city. He didn't want to do a lot of work for the rescue, and finally fell short before leaving.

Most people listened very seriously, probably because they had eaten the cookies for more than ten days and just grabbed a lot of gold coins and even pepper, everyone seemed to be quite touched.When the king said he was excited, many people waved their arms in response.

"...God has not only given cookies and peppers, but also our land and our future! The land god is about to rain down his wrath and destroy the whole world! People, we cannot realize our luck, because the land god only Chose us Elis, and only us to go on living! In the name of God, we will bring every man to arms, and in the name of God, we will take every domestic animal and every A grain of grain! Because this place has become a dead land, we will move forward along the path God has shown us, no matter whether it is a castle, a river, or a mountain ahead, we will keep moving forward!"

"Forward! Forward!" Everyone waved a few peppers in their hands, repeating hysterically.

These people are crazy!Wu Xiaoqing shook his head, unable to say whether he should be happy or sad - but this is exactly what they planned to achieve.
