Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 915 Disappeared In The Night

On this day, Xia Feng, Bagpipe and Feng Bao, the three "winds" are finally leaving Dr. Changteng's clinic.

In nearly two months, his body has recovered to the point where he can move freely, and he can run a few laps without any problem.

At least on the surface, he is no different from normal people.

Chang Teng's wife personally made an eye patch for Xia Feng to cover his missing right eye.

This blindfold is sewn with ingenuity, it is very comfortable to wear, and the appearance is also very "fashionable". It looks like a lonely hero, which is very suitable for his secondary disease.

In addition, Changteng prepared coir raincoats for him and the bagpipes, which can not only provide shade and shelter from rain, but also provide a certain degree of concealment.

Of course, Xia Feng felt that he had nothing to hide.

According to Changto, because of Victoria's dark age, many infected people besides him fled to Dongguo.

These people live in seclusion in the mountains and countryside, and occasionally go to towns to buy daily necessities, and now he looks like those people.

Xia Feng remembered that at that time, according to the report of the Border Military Region, the total number of infected people who fled Victoria throughout the dark age was close to 50.

There were many choices for these infected people, but because of the chain reaction, neighboring countries also blocked their borders, such as Syracuse, Casimir, Minos and so on.

In order to find a place of refuge, the infected people either choose to smuggle to Colombia, Bolivar, or Rem Billiton, or go to the dangerous Usas area, or the surrounding areas of Longmen and the territory of Yan Kingdom.

There are close to 50 infected people, and there may be only a very small part of them who end up in Dongguo.

But for Dong Guo, which is already very sparsely populated, there will be obvious feelings.

Of course, even if he encounters a "fellow townsman" again on the next trip, Xia Feng will not be able to reveal his identity.

He is no longer Kuroba's leader, nor is he capable of fighting desperately for the survival of the infected.

He just wanted to find a paradise away from disputes and live the life of an ordinary person.

In the yard, Xia Feng and Bagpi placed the packed luggage beside them.

In fact, there is no luggage, mainly some food and water, and a few changes of clothes.

In order to be down-to-earth, the bagpipe is still wearing plain clothes and long skirts, and the exaggerated gun-shaped weapon is tightly wrapped in gray cloth, and it is completely invisible from the outside.

Feng Bao has changed from a dog to a "donkey". Without any complaints, he carried part of the luggage on his back, sticking out his big tongue.

In addition to these, Dr. Changteng also helped them pack some medicines, including Chinese herbal medicines to treat internal injuries, and some special medicines to prevent headaches and brain fever, which can be described as extremely considerate.

"Xia Feng, in order to avoid being too ostentatious, I won't send you off."

Xia Feng was wearing a red scarf and coir raincoat outside, and said goodbye with a smile on his face.

"No need to send them off. We will leave Dongzhou, but we will not leave Dongguo. When the news passes, we will have a chance to meet again. Your son should be born by then."

"Oh, welcome anytime."

Xia Feng and Bagpi are not familiar with Dongguo, and they haven't decided where to go yet, but the current goal is naturally to leave Dongzhou controlled by Ying Wu's family.

No matter how backward the Dongguo society is, there is one thing that is indispensable for home travel, and that is money.

Before entering the Sakura Wu family, Xia Feng had been in the Eastern Kingdom for two months. Although he was not very clear about the geography, he still had a certain understanding of the currency system of the Sakura Country.

At present, the currency in circulation throughout the entire Eastern Kingdom is a metal currency issued by the Kanno family, and the types are simple and crude, only divided into three types: gold, silver, and copper.

Of course, gold has the highest value. The gold coins issued by the Kanno family are about the size of a thumb, rectangular in shape overall, and weigh about 30 grams.

The official name of this kind of gold coin is Shenye Gold, but in Dongzhou controlled by the Yingwu family, in order to show the dominance and the loyalty of the people to the patriarch, this kind of gold coin omits the word "Kano" and is called Shijin , can also be directly called gold.

The forging of stone gold is very sophisticated and complicated. It is engraved with lifelike cherry blossoms, the year, and the name of the Kano family. It is almost difficult to fake.

According to the conversion ratio, 1 stone gold can be exchanged for 100 stone silver, and 1 stone silver can be exchanged for 400-500 copper coins depending on the local situation.

Of course, currency is widely circulated only in cities and towns. As for some remote villages, the villagers have their own division of labor, and most of them have established a complete living system.

For example, your family raises pigs, his family raises sheep, your family specializes in weaving, and his family makes clay pots, etc. Finally, the villagers gather the surplus living materials and transport them to towns and sell them in exchange for what the village cannot produce. thing.

According to Xia Feng's understanding, for an ordinary townsman, the income of a family of three is at most two or three gold a year, and they also have to hand in food to the Yingwu family.

It can be seen from this that as long as you carry a stone gold in your pocket, you can almost go on a national tour that you can just go.

In addition, it is not that Dongguo does not circulate foreign currency at all, because it is not far from Longmen, so it is natural that Longmen currency is also circulated here.

However, Longmen currency is limited to shops in large towns, and if you want to exchange it, you can only go to the bank to exchange it for local currency.

As for those countrymen who have never seen what Longmen coins look like, your Longmen coins are waste paper, let alone Terra coins.

Although Xia Feng did not bring any money when he left Victoria, he is not without money now.

He won the championship in the warrior competition he participated in before in Baiye Town, because it is an annual "big competition" in Dongzhou, and the prize money for the champion is a full 10 gold.

He didn't lose the 10 gold, and kept it in his trouser pocket all the time, even when he was rolling and climbing in the mountains, he didn't lose it.

When fleeing Rhine Life, Hemer gave him 10 tera coins as travel expenses. Facts have proved that the money is not saved but earned.

So this time he didn't need to save money.

As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. For a person like him who intends to live a serious life, the difference between 10 gold and 5 gold is not that big at all.

He took out a handful of stone gold with a "ding jingle", Xia Feng directly counted 5 pieces, and handed them to Changteng's wife.

"Sister-in-law, it's been a troublesome time. The money has no other meaning. Just treat it as me buying some toys for my unborn nephew."

Chang Teng's wife was at a loss for a while after receiving the gold coin.

"This"

For her, a native of Dongguo, this is definitely not a small sum.

Chang Teng next to him was naturally also very surprised, so he quickly evaded.

"No, no, no, how can I ask for your money? Isn't this a deal? To be honest, until now I feel that I am not capable enough. I only healed your injury, but I didn't really help you find a safe place to stay."

Xia Feng waved his hand.

"Take it, it has nothing to do with the value of money, it's just my willfulness."

After a period of time, Xia Feng can clearly see that the living conditions of Chang Teng's family are not rich.

Rural medical clinics like Gulan Town only throw down a few copper coins for a visit. Living in Dongzhou, the doctor's job seems to be decent, but in fact, he has to pay a lot of taxes to the Yingwu family every year.

What is rare is the most expensive. In order to recover his injury as soon as possible, Changteng must have spent all his family's wealth on the injection equipment and medicines he went to Xichuan to purchase.

Now his wife is pregnant, after all this consumption, life must be difficult to slow down in a short time.

Of course, Changteng has tried his best to hide his poverty, he doesn't want Xia Feng to know these things, and the kindness of a drop of water will be repaid by the spring, this is the belief in the man's bones.

But if Changteng didn't say anything, Xia Feng couldn't fail to see it.

If he really didn't have any money, he could only pretend he didn't see it, thank him sincerely, and leave silently.

But since he has money, it's definitely not too much to split half of the meeting.

In Changteng's eyes, Xia Feng's status has surpassed the meaning of "friend", "brother" and "benefactor".

Facing Xia Feng's gift, he finally chose to accept it.

Just like when he received those life-saving medicines in Victoria, as well as the warming bosom with [Black Feather] engraved on it.

Night falls.

The gate in the courtyard, which had been tightly closed for a long time, finally opened.

Xia Feng and Bagpi were wearing coir raincoats, Feng Bao was carrying a bag, and the two walked out of this familiar courtyard together.

"Chang Teng, sister-in-law, let's go."

"Take care of yourself."

The green mountains remain unchanged, the green water flows forever, there is no reluctant farewell, and no excited words.

Chang Teng and his wife stood at the door, silently watching them disappear into the night.

Although the Eastern Kingdom is closed and independent, internal disputes are still raging.

At the same time, the uncertainty of the deterioration of the ore disease has given Changdeng's life trajectory to the unknown.

He didn't know if he would have the chance to meet Xia Feng in this life, this seemingly ordinary man who actually overthrew an empire.

For Chang Teng, perhaps, this is all the fate in this life, and it is also the last side of life.

In the courtyard at dusk that day, Chang Teng once lamented the gloomy life of the infected to Xia Feng, worrying that he would not be able to see the child born.

At that time, Xia Feng smiled and said to him.

"You will see, believe in miracles."

At that time, Chang Teng only took Xia Feng's words as comfort.

until several years later.

He didn't realize until Nagato's fourth child was born.

Back then, the young man named Xia Feng had changed a country. Although he wanted to stay away from disputes and live a peaceful life in the East, the torrent of fate would not let him go.

Some people are destined not to live an ordinary life.

Unless the natural disaster disappears, the origin stone disappears, the infected person disappears, and all the misfortunes in the world disappear.

This cannot be reversed by manpower at all, unless --- a miracle happens.

However, he didn't stop.

The sun and the moon alternate, everything flows, this gloomy and hopeless world is like a ruthless perpetual motion machine, which will never change because of someone's will.

until that day.

The decaying cogs cracked, and the eternal Möbius loop came to an end.

That man named Xia Feng really changed the world.
