The window panes are made of large pieces of transparent glass, which are very bright.
Lu Ting knew that cement and glass were also sold in Linzhou Prefecture, and they were very expensive. I heard that they were sold to other prefectures and the capital.
The biggest difference from other towns is the people.
Prince Lin's men were very casual in Jiuyuan City. They would suddenly shout and yell in the street, and it was common for men and women to jump around together. It was common for them to hold hands and hug each other in the street.
The residents of Jiuyuan City were all used to it and were not bothered by being harassed by King Lin's men.
Lu Ting found his parents and sister. They took two disciples who followed them and reopened the family martial arts gym in Jiuyuan City. They recruited all the subordinates of King Lin and taught them all Lu's secret skills that were not passed on to outsiders.
.
Lu Ting was very angry when he first saw it, but later he thought it was his parents' decision, so he let it go.
He had hesitated when he saw that their life was stable, but when he saw that his sister was being verbally molested by King Lin's men without being upset, he suddenly felt wary.
His sister would never tolerate this kind of behavior. Anyone who dared to talk to her in the past would have been beaten down by her.
But at this time, when he wanted to teach King Lin's men a lesson, his sister stopped him.
He no longer hesitated and wanted his parents and sister to return to Jianyang. The three of them disagreed, but instead kept persuading him to stay in Jiuyuan City.
When he was about to leave after failing to persuade him, his parents locked him in the house and prevented him from leaving.
Lu Ting looked at his parents and sister looking at him as if they were a stranger and an enemy, but there was no trace of family affection in them. He felt sad and at the same time, he was even more sure that there was something wrong in Jiuyuan City, so he pretended to stay and found an opportunity to leave.
"Host, I understand, King Lin's men are all time travellers. So are the two people who teased Ruan Yinqiao.
Let's go to Jiuyuan City to find someone tomorrow, capture the two Ximen and ask why, then kill them and the mission will be completed.
Oh, King Lin may have traveled through time as well. They are so unprofessional that the natives have noticed the abnormality. Just look, King Lin will be in trouble soon."
"Yeah. I'm the trouble."
"Yes. Lu Ting is not a trouble. If King Lin discovers that Lu Ting is not affected by evil spirits, Lu Ting will be in trouble."
Juhua asked Lu Ting, "Since King Lin's men never leave Jiuyuan City, how can you be sure that those who come to Huaxi Town will be King Lin's men?"
Lu Ting said, "Prince Lin's men all speak like this and behave very differently. Only Prince Lin's men can speak that kind of foreign language, and no one else in Jiuyuan City can.
I don’t know why King Lin’s men left Jiuyuan City. As far as I know, only these two people have left Jiuyuan City, so I chased here to find out the reason.”
"You want to find out from these two Prince Lin's men the truth about those people who moved to Jiuyuan City."
"yes."
Zi Hua asked, "Have you ever met someone who would not be confused when entering Jiuyuan City?"
"I've encountered them. But not many."
"Do you want me to join you?"
Lu Ting's face flashed with the embarrassment of being exposed for a moment, "I was just about to propose to Miss Ruan. We all have family members who have fallen into Jiuyuan City, and we want to gather more manpower to take our families out.
I think Miss Ruan has a lot of skills, so I invited you like this. I have no other ill intentions, I just thought that Miss Ruan would go to Jiuyuan City to seek revenge on the two of them, and maybe we can take care of each other."
"Host, how did he know that the host has kung fu?" System 01 was very confused. How could this person tell this when the host didn't even have any internal energy?
"Eat." Yuhua ate all the food and rice on the table at the restaurant.
Given her size and big appetite, Lu Ting concluded that she was a martial arts practitioner. This was also due to her lack of restraint in her steps and behavior.
Asking her to pretend to be weak, Zihua couldn't do it, and she didn't have to pretend. Otherwise, Zihua wouldn't have used Ruan Yinqiao's body, and would have asked System 01 to find another one.
Lu Ting was not alone. They gathered twenty or thirty people in Linzhou Fucheng, all of whom had been to Jiuyuan City but were not affected.
More than half of them have some skills, and the few who don't have any skills are scholars.
That's why Lu Ting thought of inviting her to join after he discovered that Zi Hua had some skills.
This time, there was another man named Meng Fengping who chased Lu Ting to Huaxi Town.
The next day, Zihua met Meng Fengping.
Meng Fengping is in his thirties, has a strong body, and can do some martial arts. He has no internal strength, but he has special energy.
Perhaps this special energy is what makes them immune to the influence of Jiuyuan City. More samples are needed to determine whether it is specific.
His family originally lived in a village not far from Jiuyuan Ze, where he farmed when he was busy and hunted when he was free.
First, his fifteen-year-old son went to Jiuyuanze at the invitation of his fellow villagers. Later, his wife, mother, brother and family all moved in and started farming in Jiuyuanze.
If the family has no land, it is reasonable to go to Jiuyuan Zeli to open up wasteland for the five-year tax-free land, but this is not the case in Meng Fengping's family.
Their family has seven or eight acres of land, and their labor force is small. They can barely cultivate these few acres of land, but they really can't cultivate any more land.
When a family goes to Jiuyuan Zeli to open up wasteland, they naturally don't care about the family's land. Seven or eight acres of land have been created over the years, and they are all top-grade farmland.
It’s not cost-effective to waste good farmland to open up wasteland. And clearing up wasteland is much more tiring than cultivating good land.
Meng Fengping went to persuade the family to return to the village, but he could not be persuaded to come back. The family was exhausted from clearing wasteland every day, but they still enjoyed it, so they persuaded him to stay and open up wasteland together.
He felt that the whole family was bewitched.
He was afraid that if he stayed there for a long time, he would be infected with evil spirits, so he had to leave alone first. This was also because the evil spirits would not hurt people's lives.
Later, when I met Lu Ting and others, I realized that he was not the only one who felt that there was something wrong with Jiuyuan Ze and Jiuyuan City.
Zi Hua noticed Meng Feng's casual mention that this year there was more rain in their village than in previous years, and some villages were flooded. The village where his family was located was on high ground and was not flooded. Only the harvest in the fields was not good.
.
Correspondingly, both Meng Fengping and Lu Ting said that the Jiuyuanze swamp has turned into fertile farmland.
This is unusual.
Linzhou is not close, so it is impossible to walk there.
When they arrived, Lu Ting and Meng Fengping came separately. Lu Ting had his own horse, so he rode after him first.
Meng Fengping took a carriage from the carriage house, because two of King Lin's men also took a carriage, and it was just in time to inquire about their itinerary so as to know their purpose.
It's just that the information they got out was not very useful. The two Prince Lin's men were always messing around. Once they were forced to appear before an official, but they were released not long after.
After Meng Fengping came to Huaxi, he and Lu Ting went to search various places respectively, but they were unable to find them, but they did find out their final whereabouts.
