The Legend of the Great Wilderness

Chapter 59 [Shuiwatun]
The salesman on the side smiled bitterly, wanting to have bigger fists than others?In this wilderness, without a good background and a good blood, it is not easy to get ahead!
Why are the trillions of people in the wilderness classified as "slaves, slaves, concubines, Rong, scholars, hope..."?
The dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix, the mouse's son can make holes!

It is because the bone and blood meridians inherited from the ancestors have already been doomed to the achievements of this life from the time of innate to acquired. It is not possible to find a breakthrough by finding a few superior [body training methods], " Although the myth of "common people become princes" is widely spread in this wild land, there is only one person in the tens of millions who can really do it.

The scene suddenly fell silent, and Ge Qiao looked at the expressionless Guyi timidly: "Then shall we go to collect?"

"Go! Why don't you go!?"

Gu Yi seems to have adjusted his mood quickly, recovered from the depressed state, and became energetic again: "There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, I don't believe that there is no day to turn around! Let's go! Let's go and see What good things are there in the collection!"

Ge Qiao and Xiao Chen were taken aback by Gu Yi's sudden change of confidence. This weird Jie person seemed to never know what it means to give up, and always looked full of hope. They glanced at each other, and felt a little more inexplicable towards Gu Yi who was striding forward, while the little mute who was hiding behind everyone stared fixedly at him with a pair of bright eyes. back view.

Ge Qiao shook his head in bewilderment, and was about to follow up with his legs, but he saw Guyi turn around again, and said with a puzzled expression: "Hey! Boy Ge Qiao, we will walk with our legs for a distance of dozens of miles. Are you going?"

Everyone is stunned again, if you don't walk, you still plan to run?
Gu Yi was depressed again, turned around and walked away muttering. In this damned primitive society, traffic depends on walking and communication depends on shouting. No wonder most people will never leave their hometown for a hundred miles.

Fortunately, they are basically light-footed people, and it is very convenient to walk. On the other hand, Guyi saw that the little mute was panting and obviously couldn't catch up, so he threw him on his back domineeringly. He struggled and ran all the way, but within a few hours, he arrived at Mintun [Shuiwatun], which is the closest to [Qingshi Mine].

Along the way, there are many wild grasses and old trees, except for a loess road rolled out by an ox cart for transporting ore in the [Qingshi Mine], there is almost no trace of artificial excavation in the surrounding fields, but wherever there is water, it is not far away. See sporadic [Shuzhai] and [Liwu].

Or, a small [settlement] spontaneously formed by three or five dozen mountain people living in families or tribes is hidden in the lush forests and watersides. To Guyi's surprise, With such a population density, the natural environment has hardly suffered any damage, which has to be said to be a miracle.

"Tun" in the Great Wilderness World is almost equivalent to a "town" level unit, and it has three lower-level units under its jurisdiction: "Zhai = Township", "Wu = Village", and "Ju = Natural Village". You can only go to [Mintun] where the government has a formal market.

This is also the reason why Guyi and the others had to run dozens of miles to the largest [Shuiwatun] nearby. According to the excited Geqiao boy along the way, [Shuiwatun] is [Ironforge Fortress] ] The largest one among the nine villages [Mintun] can have more than 1 households. It is divided into six upper workshops, twelve flat workshops, 48 ​​lower workshops, and six to seventy thousand households in Dingkou. public!
Every time it comes to the "Moon Market" and "Xunji", people from all directions [Liwu] and [Shuzhai] will flock here with their own products, sell or exchange with others, and get what they need , Even on weekdays, [Shuiwatun] various workshops often hold "weekday fairs" and "interday meetings" for public transactions.

However, there are not many people in the "Weekday Market" held every day and the "Interday Meeting" held every three days. If you want to exchange for good things, big items, or valuables, you have to wait until the "Xun Day Meeting" held every ten days. Set" and the "Moon Market" opened on the [-]th.

It is said that when you meet the "Festival Market" that is held every few months or the "Nian Market" that is only once a year, there will be caravans from afar, bringing rare goods, and foreign artists will be in the market. Demonstrating wonderful tricks, the wandering northern Shandi will step on the knife row and swing in the market, even if he doesn't buy anything, it is a great pleasure to come to the market every time he meets the market.

Only in the moon market, the priests of [Ji Zhai] will break their fast and order a sacrifice. People only need to offer a piece of millet to get a jar of fermented glutinous rice for sacrifices, but usually only those big merchants who are full of money and grain can arrange it. The common people will not be able to get in the position of offering sacrifices.

Who asked people to send their family members to [Jiao Zhai] for salary and ceremony, and booked the "Ji Hao" early on. If the common people's family wants to worship the ancestors and need to sacrifice fermented glutinous rice, it can only spend five Dendrobium and millet, go to the shop of a big merchant to ask for a house. The owner is merciful, and maybe they can share a jar.

Guyi and the others are very lucky. Tomorrow is the moon market of that month. They only need to rest in [Shuiwatun] for one night, and they can spend a whole day shopping in the moon market the next day. The reason why this kid Ge Qiao He kept urging Guyi and the others to go on their way like a ghost, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to play in the moon market to earn enough money. The next time he came out, he didn't know when it would be.

[Shuiwatun] was built next to a lake with a radius of more than ten square meters after a big river called [潏水] was diverted. The "wa" instead of "lake", so [Shuiwatun] got its name.

Guyi and the others arrived at [Shuiwatun] one hour before sunset, and saw the cows and horses neighing outside the village, and the voices of people gathered. Outside the wall, those who were impatient couldn't catch up with the village, so they spread out a meadow outside the village, and sold their goods one by one by the roadside, which was very lively.

"Why don't they enter the village?"

Gu Yi saw that the common people who had worked so hard to come from afar were approaching the time to close the gates, but they found places to rest outside the walls of [Shui Po Tun], apparently planning to spend the night outside the walls up.

To say that the wall of [Shuiwatun] is not too high, it is two feet up and down, that is, a height of [-] meters. In this world, being able to build a four-meter-six-meter-high and one-meter-thick double-layer log-filled mud wall is already considered very majestic.
