Four years later, after passing the coming-of-age ceremony, Xiahou stayed in the village for another four years.
The reason is very simple. His father, Chi Huxiu, made one wife and two slaves pregnant at the same time. As the only child, Xiahou had to stay at home to take care of them. Fortunately or unfortunately, the three women gave birth to a child in total.
After giving birth to five children, Xiahou's mother gave birth to a pair of boys, and the two slave women gave birth to a boy and a pair of girls.
There are five more people in the family to eat, and Chihuxiu is even busier. A large amount of meat needs to be hunted by Chihuxiu; a large amount of wine and corn need to be exchanged for animal skins. These are the tasks of Chihuxiu and Xiahou. At the same time, more information
Be careful not to let the two slave women tell the children anything about the werewolves. These are areas that need to be carefully guarded against. So Xiahou was so busy for a while, where could he escape?
It wasn't until four years later that Xiahou's Xuanwu True Understanding had returned to the eighth level of his previous life, with his muscles as strong as steel and his bones as strong as diamonds, that he finally took the time to consider leaving the mountains and forests and going to Anyi to find Xingtian Dafeng.
.
Sitting by the fire pit in the house, holding a large bowl in his hand and drinking strong liquor, Xiahou, with his black hair spread to his waist, looked at the newly acquired slave and whispered: "Abba, you all used to
Is that what you did? This woman isn’t doing anything weird behind her back, is she?”
Chihuxiu crossed his legs and looked contentedly at the rare animal skins, horns, tendons, etc. hanging on the walls of the room. He said carelessly: "This has been done in the mountains and forests for many years. Grabbing.
The mother-in-law who comes here gives birth to a child, and when the child is about to become sensible, she takes it out and replaces it with an obedient mother-in-law, so that they don’t teach the child bad things. Isn’t this how they all live?" He grabbed a piece of thin millet.
The pancake was rolled into a large piece of soupy animal meat. Chihu gnawed the millet pancake with satisfaction and said vaguely: "This new woman's husband died. The clan thinks she has no son, so she wants to
To seize her cabin, we have to sell her, and I just want to exchange it for two slave women. It's a good deal for them and it saves us trouble."
Looking at his five younger brothers and sisters rolling and thrashing on the ground, Xia Hou showed a warm smile on his face: "Well, Dad, does the family have enough money now?"
Chi Huxiu put down the big cake, pointed at the animal skins, horns and the like all over the room and laughed: "Tyrannosaurus, look, just the few dragon skins you killed are enough for the whole family to eat and drink for a year.
, what is not enough? Abba is not old yet, and now is the time when he is at his strongest."
A greasy big hand patted Xiahou's shoulder. Chihuxiu smiled and said: "Baby, take those two bags of copper bear money and use them when you go out into the mountain. The people outside the mountain are very cunning. You can't exchange animal skins for food."
Yes, you must use this thing. Don’t worry about it at home."
Xiahou nodded slightly, drank all the strong wine in the bowl, poured a few drops of residual wine in the bowl into the fire, looked at a few dim sparks on the firewood, and said lightly: "
Then I can rest assured. I'm not at home. Dad, if the things at home are enough, don't just go up the mountain. Raise your three brothers well."
Chi Huxiu grabbed the piece of millet cake and nodded carelessly: "Don't worry, kid, your father eats more meat than the beasts you have ever seen. That turtle you mentioned,
I will teach them when they grow up."
"It's the true interpretation of Xuanwu." Xiahou could only smile bitterly and warned Chi Huxiu again: "Abba, those formulas must not be leaked to outsiders, not even uncle and Wu Gong, do you understand?
"His tone was solemn and his face was serious, lest Chi Huxiu would be drunk and unable to control his mouth.
Chi Huxiu heyed a few times, with a rare flash of cunning in his eyes: "Abba knows that the Manglang tribe three hundred miles away was killed by the entire tribe just because they hunted a jade-horned rhinoceros.
, are you really that stupid to be my father? Only our family members will know about this, so don’t worry."
Xia Hou looked at him deeply and suddenly laughed: "Don't you ask me where that thing came from?"
After a while of silence, Chihuxiu laughed and slapped Xiahou hard again: "Baby, you said it was taught to you by the gods in dreams. Of course my father believed it. However, Abba thought, it was us Chihu
The spirits of our ancestors taught it to you, right?" He looked up at the roof and muttered a few words vaguely. Chi Huxiu said seriously: "You are my son anyway, that's enough! After leaving the mountain,
Make a good name for yourself and bring glory to the faces of our Chihu people."
Xiahou put his hands on his knees and bowed deeply to Chi Huxiu: "I know, don't worry, Abba. Then, I will leave tomorrow."
Chi Huxiu's face felt sad for a while. Not afraid of burning his hands, he grabbed a piece of meat from the pot and stuffed it into his mouth. He said vaguely: "Go, go, have a good time. Xiaoying only has
Only those who dare to jump off the cliff will learn to fly in the sky. Go ahead! Go to that place called Anyi and see what you can create."
Xia Hou had a faint smile on his face, and his heart felt sour for a while: "You must take good care of your health. Also, take good care of Eminem and your younger brothers and sisters."
Chi Huxiu frowned and shouted dissatisfied: "Do you still need to teach me this? Abba knows." After a pause, Chi Huxiu wiped his greasy mouth and said casually: "If
If you can't survive outside, go back to the village. There is nothing good in the clan, but you can still find a bite of meat, a piece of corn cake, and a mother-in-law."
Xia Hou smiled and gradually laughed. In his heart, the petite figure like a jasmine flower suddenly flashed across his mind, as well as the promise he made to that delicate woman. Can he still fulfill the promise he made in his previous life? So in this life
What? He laughed and said extremely seriously: "Abba, I remember. I will definitely come back."
Bai suddenly jumped in from the window, lay on Xiahou's shoulder and danced for a while, spitting out all the way. Xiahou quickly comforted him: "Of course, Bai, let's go out together. We are brothers, why didn't I bring him with me?"
Are you going out?" Bai was so excited that he immediately lay on Xiahou's body, licking Xiahou's shoulders with his long tongue, and Xiahou's face was suddenly drooling again.
Early the next morning, without disturbing the tribe, Xiahou left the village under the farewell of Chi Huxiu, his mother and the witch master. He had already walked far away with Heisui, and he could still see the shaman on the slope at the head of the village.
The old man was waving his bone staff there to see him off, and he could see Chi Huxiu waving there, and his five younger brothers and sisters looking at him eagerly.
Xiahou looked up to the sky with a little sadness, looking at the clouds with red edges, and said in a low voice: "Leaving again. Oh, this time my Xiahou's luck is not so bad, right? I won't encounter another round tripod. Shall I blow up again?" After patting Bai's head, Xiahou yelled: "Bai, get on the black hat, let's go! The outside world is still big, let's go out to eat and drink spicy food. Hehe, that's it. I don’t know if I can find a female Pixiu outside to match you.”
Bai Yangtian roared, jumped up high, sat down heavily behind Xia Hou, and touched the black horse's butt with his sharp claws. The black horse screamed, and all four of them Red clouds and smoke suddenly appeared from under the three-inch blood-red scales on the hoofs, like flames. The four hoofs just stepped on a red cloud about ten feet in diameter, and rushed out far away with a whooshing sound. There were two horns behind his ears. A hazy black light mist was shot out, pushing away the air in front of them. Xiahou and the others were sitting behind Heisheng, and there was no fluctuation or wind at all.
Xia Hou was overjoyed: "Wonderful, wonderful. This is definitely not a horse, Heisu, Heisu, what kind of treasure are you?"
He patted Hei Si's neck with great affection, but Hei Siu also felt Xia Hou's love. He looked up to the sky and hissed a few times, and ran faster. He saw that the scenery on both sides had become a line. , and finally turned into a hazy light and shadow, a subtle sound of breaking through the air was vaguely heard in the ears, and he ran far away in an instant. Ahead, the green grassland was endless, spreading straight in all directions. The brilliant The sun shines through the clouds, and the sky and earth are golden and red, which is so beautiful.
Xia Hou laughed loudly along the way, and all the burdens he had on him were thrown away thousands of miles away. His tribe, his family, were already the overlords in the mountains and forests, but he no longer had to worry about it. Now he just had to take good care of himself. Just enjoy your new life in this life. Of course, there is also the need to obtain stronger power. If you can break through the void, maybe you can find a way back. Sixteen years later, I am afraid that Xiaohua’s pot of dog meat has already Boiled to ashes?
As we drove forward rapidly, the grassland was only 20,000 miles in diameter. Along the way, we saw hundreds of tribal vendettas. Often all the men of a tribe were killed, and all the women and children were abducted to be slaves. There were various rules, but It is almost the same as in the mountains and forests. Xiahou could only look up to the sky and sigh: "Barbaric wilderness, it is indeed barbaric."
With his witchcraft power that has reached the peak of the eighth-level witchcraft and Kankan's body that may be stronger than the ninth-level witchcraft, and the companion of Bai, a ferocious beast whose physical strength is several points better than his own, although he encountered a number of enemies along the way, Xiahou was not injured at all during the fight. On the contrary, he picked up a lot of valuable things from the ground when he passed by several destroyed tribes. He even picked them up with joy when he passed by a battlefield where the blood on the ground was still warm. A six-foot-long heavy steel sword replaced the ordinary long sword he brought from home.
"The stars are spinning, the battles are endless. The people are crying, and the killings are endless." Xiahou summarized his views on the prairie in just a few words. Five days after leaving home, he crossed the prairie a little melancholy.
On the other side of the grassland, there were still mountains. Heishengqingmen crossed thirty-nine mountain ranges on a familiar road, crossed fifty-three rivers on fire clouds, and finally crossed a river that was more than ten miles wide. Arriving at the plain area outside the mountain, a muddy road spread toward the north, and caravans also appeared on the road. A hundred miles further, a city with walls made of earth and stone appeared on the roadside.
A city, a real city, a city wall six feet high, more than three miles long and wide, with dozens of villages within a hundred miles around, a real city.
"City? And it's made of earth and stone, and it's such a flat city." Xiahou stared blankly at the pedestrians walking in and out of the city gate. They no longer wore animal skins, but instead wore coarse cloths. Compared with the mountains and forests,
Or the people on the grassland look much more orderly.
There is a two-story tower on the city gate, and there is a black flag fluttering in the wind on the flagpole above, but the word Xiahou on it is not recognized. There is not a single literate person in the entire mountain forest, including the witch masters.
, Xiahou looked at the flag and was just blind.
Looking at the appearance of the city and thinking of the various delicacies and snacks in his previous life, Xiahou suddenly couldn't help drooling, and his stomach also made a growling sound. He laughed at himself, patted Hei Si's neck, and shouted
He walked slowly towards the city gate. As he walked, he told Bai, who was sitting behind him and was screaming excitedly: "Bai, there are many people here. Look at how clean and gentle they all are. Be sure to be gentle.
Don't scare people into losing their lives and cause another trouble."
I could hear the soft and pleasant accents of the travelers and merchants on the road, and their wording and sentences were much better than those of the tribesmen in the mountains, forests and grasslands. Fortunately, it seemed that everyone in the world spoke the same language, so Xiahou could still understand them.
, this avoids the embarrassing situation of being illiterate and unable to understand.
When he arrived at the city gate, he looked at the dozen or so strong soldiers wearing leather armor standing near the city gate.
.And those soldiers looked at Xiahou, who was as majestic as a diamond and came over on a black horse. He was wearing animal skins and had a big tyrannosaurus tattoo on his chest. They couldn't help but look frightened and took two steps back slightly.
I didn't dare to come up and talk to him.
However, Xiahou stopped in front of a soldier who looked like a small leader. He didn't know what their etiquette was like, so he casually bowed his hands in greeting and asked loudly: "My lord, I don't know where this place is.
?How far is it from Anyi?"
The soldier straightened up and quickly replied: "This is the territory of Fertile Weather, Zhengnan Sub-Prefecture, also called Fertile Land, and this city is called Falcon City. I wonder where this hero came from?" The soldier stared at him with all his strength.
He glanced at the steel sword hanging on Xiahou's waist, one inch wide, one inch thick, and six feet long. He stared hard at it, his eyes were filled with blood, his sharp teeth were drooling white, and he couldn't help but shudder.
"What's the weather like? Cizhou? Falcon and Yaocheng?" Blinking his eyes, Xiahou nodded slowly and said: "Thank you sir, I am a member of the Chihu tribe in the wild mountains in the far south, and I have an appointment with someone to go to Anyi.
I wonder how far away it is from Anyi?"
A caravan happened to be passing by. The leader of the caravan, the merchant, glanced at Xiahou curiously, thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Is this good man going to Anyi? This place is still more than 70,000 miles away from the middle of Jizhou.
.For ordinary people who want to go to Anyi in the Middle Kingdom from here, I am afraid it will take several years? But since you, a good man, have a black heir to travel on your behalf, you have nothing to worry about."
Xiahou thanked the merchant and rode into the city of Falcon Yao on his black horse. He saw that there were many shops on both sides of the city's avenues, and merchants and hawkers were walking back and forth. It was very lively. Most of the goods on the ground were animal skins, herbs, etc.
Occasionally, I saw someone selling a few pieces of jade-like objects, which immediately aroused the bidding of countless merchants. The sales were fair, everything was traded openly on the spot, but the folk customs were very simple. The ground was also paved with large bluestones, which was clean and smooth.
.
Xia Hou couldn't help scratching his head: "What's going on? Look here, it is obvious that the commercial economy has developed to a certain extent. Could it be that I am unlucky and the place where I was reincarnated is a wild jungle, and I unfortunately became a savage?"
He was still thinking here, but Bai couldn't control himself anymore. He was drooling and screaming at the delicious food in the butcher shop and restaurant on the roadside. Xiahou was afraid that he would cause trouble in the city, so he quickly chose a small restaurant.
He walked into the restaurant and ordered the wine and meat to be served. But the black man was also a monster who only ate meat and drank wine. Two beasts and one man opened his belly and started eating.
While eating and drinking, Xiahou cursed in his stomach: "I still expected that there would be something delicious in this city, but it turned out to be nothing more than that. This wine is a little better than the bad wine in the village, but not much better. This meat
Well, there are three methods of boiling, roasting, and roasting. There are no other seasonings except salt. The taste is just a little better than the barbecue and stew that the village has eaten for sixteen years."
After eating and drinking, Xiahou shouted: "Check out."
The owner of the restaurant ran over and looked at Bai with a little fear, who was full of white teeth and a pair of blood-stained eyes that were always staring at his neck intentionally or unintentionally. He cautiously approached Xia Hou: "This hero, ninety-year-old
A copper bear coin."
Ninety? Xiahou was shocked. The money in the purse Xing Tian Dafeng gave him added up to two hundred copper bear coins. He ate ninety coins in one meal. It seemed that he could only hurry up and not stay for more food and drinks.
.Although he picked up some things he thought were valuable on those battlefields, the market was unfamiliar and Xiahou was afraid of being slaughtered, so he decided to stay in Anyi before taking action.
A little frightened, I grabbed ninety copper bears from the money bag and threw it to the boss. But the boss trembled violently and quickly returned eighty-nine of them, looking at it in confusion.
Xia Hou: "My dear man, are you mistaken? One copper bear can be exchanged for ninety copper bears. Why do you give me ninety copper bears?"
The boss was kind and gave Xiahou ten big bronze coins with big thumbs. He also gave him a detailed explanation of their approximate market value. One copper bear coin was exchanged for one hundred copper bear coins. One copper bear coin
In exchange for one hundred copper coins, I think that a copper bear with a lot of money can buy five dans of fine corn in the market of Yao City. If it weren't for Xiahou, Bai, and Heisi, one person and two beasts can eat and drink so much, what can ordinary people do with one meal?
Maybe he ate nearly a copper bear worth of wine and meat?
Xia Hou was stunned for a long time, thinking that in the village back then, a load of corn, which was about a hundred kilograms, would require more than a dozen good animal skins to exchange for it. He never thought that the copper bear was worth so much. For a moment, he felt anxious in his heart.
Xingtian Dafeng was grateful for a while, but he was secretly angry that the last time he bet with himself, he collected nearly a hundred money bags alone. Wouldn't that be tens of thousands of copper bears? It was enough to buy 50,000 tons of corn. His black
The army is really rich.
When he thought of Xingtian Dafeng and his black army, Xiahou couldn't help but feel excited. The leader of the army directly under the king, wasn't he almost the commander of the capital's garrison in his previous life? A strange smile appeared on Xiahou's face, unexpectedly
I worked as an agent in my previous life, but I might join the army in this life.
"Bai, Lao Hei, let's take a few steps quickly. When we get to Anyi, we'll go have a good meal. The journey is only 70,000 miles, and Lao Hei's journey only takes ten days. Work harder, let's travel day and night!"
Xiahou cheered, and one man and two beasts shouted joyfully at the same time, rushing out of the north gate of Falcon City and continuing towards the north.
"Anyi, let me see what kind of place it is! Let me see, is there anything else that can surprise me?"
