The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 57 Travel Documents
After walking far away, Gu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. They are such a big group of big men with big arms and waists, they have to be led by a brat like Ge Qiao to leave the ghostly place of the bluestone mine, which makes Gu Yi very aggrieved. Secretly decided to demolish this place sooner or later.

As the distance from [Qingshi Mine] got farther and farther, Guyi looked back suspiciously from time to time, but was urged by Ge Qiao: "Hurry up! There are dozens of long journeys from here to [Shuiwatun] , if we don’t hurry up, we won’t be able to advance to the village at sunset.”

Although Ge Qiao always looks like a grown-up, but after all he is just a kid under ten years old. He has been confined in the small world of [Sunken Valley] all the year round, and it is difficult for him to have the opportunity to come out to play.

Tai Bokui allowed him to go out this time under the pretext of going out shopping with Guyi. After finally seizing the opportunity, he was naturally very excited, anxiously urging the group of people to hurry on their way. When [Qingshi Mine] comes out, if you don’t speed up your pace, it will be difficult to get to [Shuiwatun] before sunset. After dark, the village will be closed and entry and exit are prohibited.

"No hurries!"

Gu Yi grabbed Ge Qiao and grabbed his hand, grabbed the sheepskin document from his arms, unfolded it, and found that he didn't know a word, Ge Qiao poked him: "It's down!"

A drop of cold sweat slid from his forehead, Gu Yi glanced at Ge Qiao indifferently, and turned the sheepskin document upside down calmly, um, I still don't recognize it!

"What's written on it?"

Naturally, he folded up the sheepskin document that looked like a pass and stuffed it into his arms, Gu Yi asked casually, he had the experience of being captured by soldiers patrolling the road, so he naturally had to get this thing into his own hands I feel at ease.

Ge Qiao glanced at him in surprise: "The 'travel document' issued by [Qingshi Mine]! If you don't bring this, how can I take you into [Mintun]?"

Gu Yi felt that there was something wrong there and asked doubtfully, "Will those miners send people to follow us?"

Ge Qiao was stunned: "Why did the miners follow suit? You still expect them to help us carry the goods and come back?"

Gu Yi was puzzled: "If we just go by ourselves, they won't be afraid that we will run away halfway?"

Ge Qiao looked at Guyi with a weird face for a long time, and when he looked at Guyi a little bit annoyed, he suddenly said: "Okay! Taiyi, do you want to run away?"

His hairs stood on end, Gu Yi froze, and his muscles tensed immediately. He didn't tell anyone about his plan to run away, because he was afraid that the sound of the leak would alert the miners, but he ignored the fact that he had been running for the past few days. Like a little tail, the kid Ge Qiao who is following his buttocks like a ball of dough is actually from [Qingshi Mine]!

It's all because Ge Qiao looks too intimidating, who would be wary of a kid under ten years old, plus Guyi heard him claiming to be a "slave" of the Iron Court before, and thought that He, like himself, belonged to the poor people who were imprisoned and enslaved.

But they didn't expect that this kid, like Bao Jai, was a traitor who broke into the crowd!
The worst thing is, Gu Yi knows that this kid is definitely not as easy to deal with as he looks on the immature appearance. On the night he entered the [Valley], he almost knocked down the powerful hairy leader with one kick. Come on, don't look at his small stature, he might be even stronger than a hairy man with his strange strength!
Just when Gu Yi was hesitating whether to strike first and kill the kid, Ge Qiao suddenly laughed out loud with his stomach in his arms, pointing at the bewildered Gu Yi and slapping his thigh while laughing, which made Gu Yi become angry from embarrassment Roaring: "Laughing at your sister!? What's the situation!?"

"Taiyi, did you run out of that deep mountain and old forest? Why are you not as knowledgeable as a hairy man or a soft servant? Why don't you know anything?"

Ge Qiao laughed out of breath and said, "Ouch! It's so fun, Taiyi, don't you think you can run away when you get out of the [Sunken Valley] and [Bluestone Mine]? Or, are you going to Go back to your deep mountains and old forests, and then be your savage?"

Gu Yi's old face has nowhere to put it, and he said angrily: "Being a savage is better than being a slave!"

Seeing that Guyi was really angry, Ge Qiao wiped away the tears from laughing and explained to Guyi.

In the Great Wilderness, a world with a strict pyramidal class system, people are divided into a strict class system according to their different identities. At the same time, various strict laws and regulations have been formulated to restrict the words and deeds, etiquette, and status of each class. , status, everything is drawn into the set frame.

But what Gu Yi didn't expect was that his current identity as "miner" was not the "slave" he knew!
Among the classes of "slave, slave, concubine, Rong, scholar, Wang..." and other classes, "slave" is the "slave" in his cognition. From the soul to the body, he does not belong to himself, and he does not have any rights at the bottom of society. .

The "li" seems to be a class between "slave" and "shu". The social status of "li" is slightly lower than that of "shu". , also refers to the "poor people", which belong to the class that relies on the sale of lowly labor force in exchange for food.

"Shu" refers to "common people", which roughly means "property people" who "have a fixed place to live and work with constant property". "civilians" class.

However, because people in industries such as "craftsman, pawn, merchant, agriculture, animal husbandry, and fishery" are also classified as among the common people, the gap between the rich and the poor is very huge among this class.

[Zhongrong County], one of the 81 counties in [Zhongyouyu], because of its special geographical environment, in order to prevent the invasion of outsiders and bandits, and to prevent the loss of population, the control of floating population is very strict, and it is even strictly forbidden to People, no matter what, they are not allowed to roam and connect with each other.

Anyone who leaves the place of residence due to business must hold a [travel document] issued by the local manager, indicating the identity of the person going out, the reason for going out, the time of going out, and the time limit for returning home. Criminal detention strictly controls population movement.

In other words, without such a strict review process, which is equivalent to a "visa for going abroad", even if Guyi and the others leave the [bluestone mine], it will be difficult for them to move a single step outside!
Unless, as Ge Qiao said, they ran into remote mountains and old forests to hide, no [travel document], any [Mintun], [Shuzhai], [Liwu] would not allow them to enter, and they would even be responsible. The guards, military soldiers, and Tun Ding who guarded the safety of the village will also arrest them immediately.
