Chapter 122: Arriving at Nanyue County Monthly Pass)
After receiving so much golden light of merit, Jiayin immediately became very motivated and began to search for various voices among those who were kneeling to pray for Shinto to see if there was anyone like this woman.
However, after listening for a long time, the crowd had almost dispersed, and no one who had done good deeds like the woman was found.
Most of them want their children to be safe and their family to be financially prosperous, etc. She has no control over these things.
You can't share the money with them, right? She felt bad for spending ten taels of silver before. Otherwise, she wouldn't have slapped the old man so hard. She actually wanted ten taels of silver. He was so beautiful, hmph!
Jiayin knew that ten taels of silver could buy a lot of food. Even if there were too many taels of silver, she would not give it.
After that, Ah Jin and Ah Xiang left together.
The old man didn't dare to stay any longer and hurriedly went into the alley.
The onlookers lost their excitement and dispersed, doing whatever they were supposed to do.
The people kneeling on the ground saw that there was no miracle after praying for a long time, so they all stood up, straightened their robes and left. However, they made up their minds to worship a god statue at home and burn three sticks of incense in the morning and evening, just in case it works...
When Fang Li saw that the crowd had dispersed, he took the children and continued walking forward. There was nothing to see anyway, so he went to the grain store to meet the people buying grain, and then left the city together after they finished shopping.
As soon as the children returned to their families, they began to talk vividly about the events in the city to their family members who had not gone in.
Mrs. Yang and Mr. Li put their hands together and bowed before saying: "So, never do evil things. You must know that there are gods three feet above your head. The gods know exactly what we have done."
Fang Yun even bowed solemnly, thinking that gods were indeed everywhere.
Shao Yang, the bodyguard and others also heard what they said, because the people who went in to buy food were walking in front and did not encounter Axiang and Ajin. When they came back, the crowd had dispersed.
So even though I heard the vivid words from these children, I didn’t believe that it was really a manifestation of gods. I just thought that some peerless master should have done it secretly.
Everyone loaded the food into the trucks and put them away, and then continued on the road.
This trip to the plains took three or four days to complete. During this period, we passed through two or three county towns and went in to buy food.
These few good news have not changed the grain. It cannot be that every clerk in the grain shop makes a mistake. That would be too outrageous.
So after that, all I ate was brown rice. Fortunately, I bought pork a few times and there was oil and water in the vegetables. Otherwise, I couldn’t go hunting and still had to eat brown rice. Then Jiayin would probably have gone off grain.
Later, the children never went into the county town. Anyway, it was pretty much the same and nothing interesting.
Moreover, it was a coincidence that they arrived at this time. Most of them had just experienced freezing rain before arriving at the county seat. The weather was cold and the ground was slippery, making it impossible for the children to run around.
Although the Chinese New Year will be celebrated in about ten days, the New Year’s Fair here has not started yet, so the county town is not very lively.
It is not until a few days before the Chinese New Year that there will be large-scale markets for people to buy new year's goods.
It wasn't until they walked out of the last county town before the plains that they caught up with the market. And it was already the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month.
According to their calculations in the north, today should be the small year, but here in the south, the 24th is.
They happened to buy maltose in this county. Although they couldn't worship the Stove Lord on the way, they just distributed the maltose to everyone to sweeten their mouths.
Of course, adults just mean it. Basically, it goes into the bellies of children.
After that, the family went into the mountain again. Fortunately, the mountain was not big, so it took them two days and one night to climb over it.
This is because they rest at night. If they travel all night, they can get out in one day and one night.
There are no wild animals in this mountain. When we walked to the center of the mountain, we encountered a few pheasants and hares.
What they didn't know was that Jiayin had caught them from afar.
Because there is Nanyue County on one side and several lively county towns on the other, there are more people coming and going, and most of the wild animals in the mountains have moved deeper.
After Jiayin's practice during this period, the scope of his spiritual consciousness has expanded again, and the coercion has been able to shrink to within fifty feet.
When they walked out of the forest, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They could see the majestic city from a distance. After all, it was the last big city guarding the Imperial City. Beyond this city was the Imperial City, so one can imagine how majestic the city was built and how prosperous it was inside.
.
The tall city walls feel different from the previous ones. They seem to be taller and wider, and there are more soldiers walking back and forth on them.
Of course, this is what Jiayin saw.
The rest of the people only saw a city from a distance.
Jiayin used his spiritual sense to explore the city and was extremely surprised. This city was more than twice as big as the previous ones.
And the construction of the city is different from that of the previous ones.
Those previous cities also had moats, but they looked like they were dug manually. Although they were deep, they were not very wide.
The moat surrounding the city is naturally formed.
It seems that the city was built here because of the circular river.
Why do you say that? Because one side of the moat is a high city wall, and the other side is a cliff with waterfalls flowing down from it.
In other words, if you want to go to the imperial city through here, you can only enter the city. Even if you take a detour from the other side of the mountain, you can't get around it. The other side of the mountain is a cliff.
Unless you can fly, you won't be able to get through it at all.
At this time, Fang Yunping had already started discussing with everyone which direction to go.
Nanyue City will not allow refugees to pass to the Royal City.
Or they can find a way to settle north of Nanyue City, which is also under the jurisdiction of Nanyue County. They can find a village below the county seat to settle down.
Or just go around this mountain and go southwest, where is Xiangyun County.
The imperial city is in the southeast of Nanyue County, and they can only go west if they go further.
But Xiangyun County is not suitable for northerners like them to settle.
I heard from Shaoyang and the bodyguards that, except for the county town, everyone in Xiangyun County lives in the mountains. There are many poisonous snakes and venomous insects in the mountains over there. And most of the people there live in the mountains. The mountain people also know how to use
It is poisonous and very xenophobic. People like them could not live in the past.
The Fang family discussed for a long time and finally decided to stay in Nanyue County and find a better county to settle in the north of the county.
Shao Yang also revealed his true identity at this time. He also told them that he would tell his father and ask his father to say hello to the county magistrate below and ask the county magistrate to settle the Fang family in a better place.
Fang Yunping and others were pleasantly surprised when they heard this.
Unexpectedly, Shao Yang, who came with them all the way, turned out to be the son of the governor of Nanyue County!
As the saying goes, there are people up here who can do things easily.
Chapter completed!
