149 Wujiazhuang(1/2)
There was no one around in the forest, so Zhou Jing practiced another basic training method.
Although I don’t know if there is extraordinary in the current world, I don’t have to try my luck to find it. The practice of the martial arts system in the main world is just the main practice.
Zhou Jing started practicing with the body of the No. 4 Apostle and soon received training information. The martial arts system did not conflict much power with the current plane.
The star point on his body is rich, so he directly accelerated his practice for [Basic Honing Method] and [Zhongping Gun].
In addition, the panel also shows that it triggered the achievement of [Newcomer], which is a repetitive achievement that can be obtained every time you enter the new astrology.
Rewards of 100 star boundary points and a skill version of "Language Quick Analysis". He is familiar with both and deposited them in the warehouse.
After doing all this, Zhou Jing walked out of the forest.
He designated the place to be placed. According to the information of the main world, it should be a safe place. There is a village nearby. He is planning to start with this and explore the changes in the world first.
"Last time the main world intersected with this star world, it was still a chaotic world. Later, a man from heaven completed the great cause of unification and established the Great Xia Dynasty. At the end of the intersection period, this dynasty was just established and was thriving. Now it meets for the second time. I don't know how many years have passed here and what the dynasty is..."
Zhou Jing thought about it while advancing along the dirt road.
After about half an hour, a large area of earthen wall surrounded by hundreds of green trees jumped into my eyes. Smoke wafted out of it, but it was a village...
There are several dirt roads extending around the village, and occasionally there are donkey carts and peddlers coming and going, but they are not short of popularity.
Outside the village is a large field, with many yellow-faced and thin farmers farming in the field, bare-chested.
There is a stone tablet on the side of the road with the three words "Wujiazhuang" engraved on it.
Zhou Jing did not understand the language of this world, but in the information provided by the Explorer course, the place name was annotated in the common language of the main world and the text of the plane. He had done his homework earlier and happened to know the word Ren at this time, and confirmed that it was the village he had formulated and placed.
"It looks quite prosperous, go in and take a look."
He raised his eyebrows and walked along the way toward the village.
The closer you are to the village, the more villagers and passers-by will be there. More people noticed Zhou Jing and couldn't help but frequently cast a surprise look.
Even the farmers working in nearby fields stopped the farm work, straightened their backs and looked at Zhou Jing who was swaying from afar, and did not dare to get close.
It’s not that Zhou Jing’s behavior is extraordinary, but that he is a unique appearance. Such a burly and brave man is really rare, and he is much taller than ordinary people.
The messy hair looks like a lion's mane, thick eyebrows and big eyes, masculine and powerful, and the look is like a tiger's eyes. She is wearing a short yellow brown, her sleeves are rolled to her elbows, her forearm muscles are twisted, and her big hands are like palm fan-like joints. She is tied with black belts around her waist, her legs are wrapped around her legs, splashing mud, and her body is covered in dust. She is carrying a curved branch like a stick on her shoulder, and she is soaring like a dragon and a tiger, and she is retreating, just like a beast going down the mountain, and a lion and a tiger coming out of the forest!
Although it was eye-catching, no one stopped him on the road. Zhou Jing walked into the village and looked around and found that the village was really not small, but the layout was clear at a glance.
In the middle of the village is a large village surrounded by high walls. It looks like a house of local landlords, covering a wide area. There are circles of simple thatched houses and tiled houses distributed around it, most of which are the residences of farmers.
In addition, there are many inns, restaurants, teahouses and other shops in the village, which allow travelers from south to north to rest. This Wujiazhuang may be located on a fork of a major traffic artery, so there are many people outside the village, and the business is not bad.
"According to data, the population of the Great Xia Dynasty was tens of millions at the beginning of its founding. Now, if nothing unexpected happens, it is probably over 100 million. The population is more than the World of Alien Beasts, and the land area is dozens or hundreds of times that of the Terra Empire. The World of Alien Beasts is primitive, and the Great Xia Dynasty in the D19 plane is already a relatively mature farming civilization. This Wujiazhuang, regardless of area or number of households, is dozens of times that of Shuangmu Village, and is almost considered a small county town..."
Zhou Jing made a secret comparison.
He looked around and saw a tea shed at the entrance of the village and strode over.
Since Zhou Jing entered the village, the tea servant in the teahouse noticed it early and was a little scared. At this time, he found that Zhou Jing was approaching, so he hurriedly came up and smiled.
"Call, can you give me a bowl of tea?"
Zhou Jing was just here and hadn't learned the language here, so he naturally didn't understand it. However, he was prepared for it and immediately used a "Quick Language Analysis" that was awarded for the award of the [First Come].
Unknown language was discovered, [Language Quick Analysis] has been used
You have obtained the skills [Daxia Dynasty Mandarin]
Mastery level:Lv2-
Zhou Jing didn't sit down, and stood outside the tea shed with a stick, without using words to cover up, and asked directly:
"Brother-in-law, I have lived in the mountains and forests for a long time and have not heard of the world. Today I am coming out of the mountain. Is there something to ask, what dynasty is it today? Is it still Daxia?"
The teakeeper was startled and almost wanted to come up to cover Zhou Jing's mouth, but after looking at the difference in figures between the two, he still felt it from his heart and said tremblingly: "Oh, the guest official is careful. Nowadays, it is the world of the court, which one has nothing else?"
Zhou Jing pulled the old tea lover with a bitter face for a while and generally knew the current situation.
Today's Great Xia Dynasty has lasted for 160 years, and more than a hundred years have passed since the last time the main world converged. It has fought several battles with the surrounding foreign tribes in the middle, winning and losing, and expanding some territory, resulting in some outdated maps of the main world and errors in the border areas.
However, the area I designated was a wealthy place in the southeast of the Central Plains of the Great Xia Dynasty. It was far away from the border, and the main world map was still valid, so the general direction was definitely fine. At most, there was a small error, such as some small villages disappeared or rose in the changes over the past hundred years, which was inevitable.
Zhou Jing remembered it in his heart, thought about it, and asked again about the world.
After all, the Apostle No. 4 has "ambition of great ambitions". Since he has plans to rebel, he plans to first understand the current livelihood environment and then make plans.
Hearing this, the teakeeper smiled bitterly:
"In this world... Alas, it's good to have a bite of food alive. How dare we talk nonsense?"
Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows and grabbed the teakeeper's arm: "Brother-in-law, tell me in detail."
The teakeeper was not very happy, but he did not dare to disobey this big man who looked difficult to mess with at first glance, so he had to stammer, but it aroused his own suffering and sighed from time to time.
After listening to it, Zhou Jing's mind was refined and he roughly understood the situation, not much surprise.
At least I have received compulsory education and history classes. The Great Xia Dynasty has been in the throne for 160 years. The current situation is not new, it is nothing more than the common problems in the late feudal dynasty.
The emperor is stupid, the treacherous ministers are in power, the land is annexed, the people are living in poverty... They are still missing natural disasters and man-made disasters!
‘It’s good that’s fine, at least the uprising is in accordance with the times, not completely a disaster in the world…
Zhou Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
The apostle's life goals are not compulsory. If they go against their own will, they will not be happy. If it is a peaceful and prosperous era today, it would be a bit disappointing to rebel.
Fortunately, it is a dark and chaotic world, and there is no psychological pressure to cause trouble.
At this time, Zhou Jing felt aroused and asked, "Brother-in-law, I saw that the stone tablet at the entrance of the village said that this is Wujiazhuang. I am a newcomer and I don't know the rules here. Please tell me."
Seeing that the great man no longer entangled with the court's problems, the tea servant breathed a sigh of relief and replied in a low voice:
"This Wujiazhuang is a big family here, with five or six hundred farmers. This radius of thousands of acres is all the land of Wujiazhuang. Most of the farmers in this village are tenant farmers on the farm, and they rely on the Wu family to earn food and drink.
The old lady of the Wu family is Changgui, and she is the owner of the manor here. She has four sons, the eldest son is studying, the second son and the third son are practicing martial arts. The fourth son is still young, all of whom are among the people and have a daughter. It is said that she married into a wealthy family in the prefecture, but I don’t know the details.
There are no other rules here. As long as you are not a person who is in trouble, you can come and go at will. If you are short of money, you can also stay in the house. The old owner is kind and generous and often makes a contribution."
Zhou Jing nodded and suddenly asked, "That father-in-law, has this Wujiazhuang done anything evil?"
The tea servant immediately changed his face, glanced at the left and right, and then said unhappily: "Go! You idle man, do you buy tea soup? If you don't buy it, don't argue with me!"#
After saying that, he stopped talking, turned around and returned to the teahouse, making tea on his own.
Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows, thought about it, but did not bother with the tea lover. He carried the sticks of branches and wandered around the village, looking left and right, and his strong muscles were always eye-catching.
While he was walking around, he thought about how to act next.
‘Inquiring about news and practicing martial arts are all important…but the real urgent task is to make money! I am now penniless and can’t afford to eat a meal without getting some money.’
Zhou Jing thought to himself.
Working to earn money? It's OK, but I'm afraid it's a bit wasteful. Moreover, there seems to be no shortage of workers in this farm.
Stealing? With the personality of the Apostle No. 4, this may cause the synchronization rate to be lost.
Maybe you can stay in Wujiazhuang and show your outstanding talents slightly. It should not be difficult to exchange for some money... However, with the violent personality of "Chen Feng", I am afraid that it is not suitable to rely on others.
After thinking for a while, Zhou Jing made a decision considering the social atmosphere and cultural background of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Be self-reliant first and try selling your skills on the street!
If the trick is not suitable for you, this apostle will have a set of mid-range shooting skills, and it is still at the level of a beginner.
Although Zhou Jing remembers the sword skills and can be used, the Apostle No. 4 has no muscle memory, so he may be a bit stumbling when playing. Moreover, his sword skills are practical responses and there are no fancy moves.
"Just work hard and at least take advantage of the strengths of 26 points of physical fitness."
Zhou Jing had a conspiracy in his heart and immediately left the village.
He searched for a while and found an oval boulder that was almost as tall as a man. Under the curious view of the children, he pushed the stone back to the village and stopped in a street where people were coming and going.
Zhou Jing patted the huge rock, put down his face, and shouted loudly:
"The old saying goes well. Rely on friends when you go out. My fellow villagers, I have been through the treasure land and have used up all my money. I have to do this here. I hope everyone who has money can support money and those who have no money can support personal money!"
In the feudal era, entertainment activities were limited, and street performers were common. Even in such villages, villagers were accustomed to this.
When I heard about this fun thing, pedestrians stopped and watched curiously.
There were also many customers in the tea shops on the street and turned their heads and looked over.
When many people saw Zhou Jing's appearance, they were shocked and secretly called him a powerful man, and immediately became interested.
Zhou Jing shouted several times, and the number of passers-by was gathering around him, and the village soon became lively.
At the same time, a group of three people entered the village and walked on the street.
The first one was a middle-aged man with two strands of thin beards on his lips and a row of goat whiskers under his jaw. He wore a long robe and a folding fan, which seemed to be an elegant scholar.
There was a man and a woman next to him. The man was a middle-aged man with a tall figure, like a green pine tree, with wide shoulders and narrow waists, ape-armed wolf waist, and two long objects wrapped in linen cloth hanging on his back.
The woman is a heroic girl with her eyebrows and eyes vaguely similar to those of a middle-aged man, like a brother and sister, with long hair tied around her waist and a short knife.
They don't look ordinary.
"This Wujiazhuang is prosperous. The owner of this place is kind and generous... Master, should we go and have a visit?"
The middle-aged man looked at the middle-aged scholar and asked in a low voice.
