When the sun rises from the horizon, the whole world seems to suddenly become alive.
If the world at night seems to have pressed the pause button, and everything stays on the black and white grid, the world is now back on the track of progress.
Sunshine, grassland, wheat fields, villages, and smoke rising far away, human beings have become the main body of this world again, instead of weak existences hidden in cellars.
At this time, we were very close to Haotian City. On the spacious road, there were many caravans heading towards Haotian City.
Compared with the remote Sunjia Village, this place is undoubtedly many times more lively. Crowds can be seen everywhere, and there are some tea shops on both sides of the road for people to rest, and they have opened their stalls early.
Coming here, Su Xiaofan also slowed down, feeling the strong popularity. During the decades of being sucked into the black hole space, Su Xiaofan could taste the loneliness and coldness.
So when encountering the lively scene in front of him, Su Xiaofan felt like he wanted to blend in, because this way he could feel that he was still alive.
Seeing the tall walls of Haotian City from a distance, Su Xiaofan did not rush into the city. Instead, he sat down at a tea shop outside the city and listened to the chatter of guests from all over the world.
Most of the people who rushed to Haotian City early in the morning were doing small business.
Because the cost of living in Haotian City is too high, these people live in villages near Haotian City and travel back and forth every day. Although it is a bit hard, they can still earn enough to support the whole family.
On the road, in addition to groups of caravans, there were also many people carrying burdens. Most of the burdens contained vegetables or rice noodles, which were also sold in Haotian City.
Su Xiaofan observed that although the world was deeply poisoned by spirits and demons, the lives of ordinary people were still okay.
Judging from the clothes and faces of the pedestrians on the road, they can be said to be living and working in peace and contentment. Although many people have disheveled faces, at least Su Xiaofan did not see those ragged scenes of selling girls.
This also shows how developed agriculture is on this planet, and any crops can achieve high yields here.
Although many places are inaccessible to humans, the food grown in these plains is enough for humans in the four countries.
Most of the territory of the Celestial Empire is plains, so the Celestial Empire is also an important producer of grain exports to the four countries. Every day, various caravans enter the Celestial Empire to trade grains.
When there is no shortage of food and there are powerful enemies such as spirits and monsters, the internal fighting among humans has also been reduced a lot.
When Su Xiaofan was in the universe, he visited many star realms including the original star realm, but this world was the place where the human race was the most united.
After resting outside the city for a while, Su Xiaofan got up and walked towards the city gate.
As one of the ten largest cities in the Celestial Dynasty, Haotian City covers an area of hundreds of kilometers, with millions of people living in the city. Every brick on the huge city wall is engraved with talismans and inscriptions.
In the history of Haotian City, there have been several monster tidal waves driven by monsters, as well as the Yin Shen army passing through.
These disasters have all been resisted by Haotian City without exception. Although disasters from heavenly demons still occasionally occur in the city, Haotian City is still the safe place that countless warriors yearn for.
The gates of Haotian City are divided into one large and one small. The large gate is for ordinary people to enter and exit. There was a long queue early in the morning.
The slightly smaller city gate is where warriors go in and out. As long as they are certified warriors in Haotian City, they can quickly enter and exit through this small city gate.
None of the ordinary people present were dissatisfied with this privilege of warriors, because these conveniences of warriors were obtained by their own lives.
In this world, it is the consensus of all races that warriors take the lead.
When encountering monsters and monsters causing harm to mankind, warriors are always the ones fighting on the front line. It is these warriors who enable the human race to pass on the flames of war.
Therefore, not only in and out of the city gate, warriors also have many conveniences in their lives. This is what they deserve, and few ordinary people will make irresponsible remarks about it.
two
Above each city gate, there is a bronze mirror inlaid with complex inscriptions engraved on the bronze mirror. All people entering and exiting the city gate must pass under the bronze mirror.
Su Xiaofan knew that this was the demon mirror developed by Fu Lu Master.
Although it is called a demon mirror, this talisman mirror can actually reflect the incorporeal bodies of demons and ghosts.
Of course, the demon mirror cannot completely prevent demons from entering the city, because some demons are good at hiding their whereabouts and are really difficult to detect.
Su Xiaofan went straight to the small gate of the city and showed a waist badge made of ironwood to the two warriors guarding the city gate. The waist badge was engraved with cloud and dragon patterns on the four sides, and the Chinese character Sun was written in the middle.
Although Sunjia Village is far away from Haotian City, it is indeed a village within the jurisdiction of Haotian City. This belt was also made by Haotian City and then received by Sunjia Village.
A martial arts disciple took the belt and inspected it carefully. After seeing the word "Master" on the back of the belt, his expression suddenly became solemn.
The waist badge represents the identity of the warrior. The waist badge for a martial disciple has the character "disciple" on the back, for a martial artist it is the character "shi", and so on.
The ironwood used to make waist badges is also a very special kind of wood, its hardness is ten times harder than steel.
If you want to make ironwood into a waist card, you need a talisman master to use special softening talismans to temporarily disintegrate the properties of ironwood before it can be broken down.
Since ironwood is not very flexible and is not suitable for making weapons, it is used as a material for waist badges.
Monsters and monsters don't know how to use talismans, so this kind of waist badge is difficult to imitate. In this world, it is almost the same as a warrior's ID card.
"Sir, please come in..."
Another martial artist looked up at the demon mirror and found nothing unusual. He quickly stepped aside and signaled that Su Xiaofan could go in.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Su Xiaofan put away his badge and walked into the city gate.
The city wall was very wide and thick, more than twenty meters long, and carriages could even be driven on it. After passing through the long city gate corridor, Su Xiaofan entered the city.
The thick city wall had previously isolated the sounds in the city.
Entering the city, the loud sound of people reached Su Xiaofan's ears.
Within five hundred meters of the city wall is an isolation zone, and a little further away is the station of the Celestial Warrior Legion, which is also the city's first line of defense.
Once they encounter monsters or a horde of beasts attacking the city, these well-trained warriors will immediately climb onto the city wall. The brown marks on Haotian City are the dried blood stains shed by warriors and monsters.
Passing through the blank isolation area, that familiar feeling suddenly came to Su Xiaofan's heart.
As the food base of the four countries, China's trade is undoubtedly the most developed among the four countries, so the business atmosphere in Haotian City is very strong.
Restaurants, shops, and stores from almost all walks of life can be seen on this long commercial street.
However, on this commercial street that is several kilometers long, the most stores are of two types.
The first type is the escort agency. Due to the special nature of this world, spirits and monsters are everywhere outside the city, so if you want to conduct trade safely, you need a strong escort force.
So the Escort Bureau came into being. The Escort Bureaus in the universe that Su Xiaofan knew in the past were often based on human nature and sophistication. As long as they had a good relationship with powerful people from all over the world, they could travel all over the world.
But it's different in this world. Escort bureau is an extremely high-risk industry, because every time you go out as an escort, you can't avoid fighting with monsters.
Correspondingly, there are casualties among the warriors in the escort agency. It is extremely lucky to escape with only one escape without being injured.
If placed in all realms of the universe, no one would choose such a profession, but the casualty rate of each dart move would put most people off.
But in this world, many warriors are eager to join the escort agency. In addition to earning the high fees, they also want the opportunity to fight monsters.
If a warrior wants to advance, he needs a life and death calendar
Practice, as long as there is still a martial heart, a warrior will never retreat.
If you go out of the city alone to encounter demons, the chance of a warrior dying is too high. On the contrary, the escort agency allows warriors to stay in a group, which is much safer than fighting alone.
In the escort agency, most of them are warriors in their prime between the ages of twenty and fifty. This is also the period when warriors' energy and blood are at their strongest. They hope that through life and death experience, they can break through their current state.
Once they reach the level of military commander after reaching the age of fifty, warriors will basically quit the escort agency, because their energy and blood will go downhill, and if they want to break through, they will have to find other methods.
For example, the martial arts masters who came out of Sunjiacun in the past would most likely join the escort bureau. For martial artists, entering the escort bureau to gain experience is the best choice for them to strengthen themselves.
The strong Martial King of Sunjiacun who was promoted a hundred years ago followed this path. He followed the escort agency to fight in the four countries, became famous, and raised his cultivation to the realm of Martial King along the way. And the current Martial King of Sunjiacun,
He also opened a bodyguard bureau, and with King Wu in charge, this bodyguard bureau has become the largest bodyguard bureau in Haotian City, ranking among the top three even in the Celestial Dynasty.
In addition to escort agencies, the most popular martial arts schools on this street are martial arts schools!
A martial arts school, as its name suggests, is naturally a place for learning martial arts.
Among the Four Kingdoms, as warriors who are on the front line of fighting against demons, the warrior profession is the well-deserved first profession, and even the Talisman Master can only be ranked second.
Whether they are descendants of warriors or ordinary people, their greatest wish is definitely to become a powerful warrior, because that not only represents money and fame, but also represents strong strength.
If you want to learn martial arts, there are many ways in this world, and studying in a martial arts gym is not the only way.
For example, in a family inheritance like Sunjia Village, villagers will be tested on their martial arts aptitudes from a young age, so they can focus on training. The martial arts they practice are also passed down from their families.
There are many such inheritances, spread throughout the four countries.
However, if you want to become a warrior, your own qualifications are very important. If you have poor qualifications and cannot accept evil spirits entering your body, you will definitely not be able to become a warrior.
There are also many inheritances that are passed down from generation to generation. As the number of children with martial arts qualifications gradually decreases, this inheritance gradually declines and disappears.
There is also a very popular method of practicing martial arts, which is the inheritance of martial arts.
The inheritance of a master's sect often relies on the sect as its backer and recruits disciples. This is very similar to the inheritance of the universe.
However, those sects are very strict in selecting disciples. Unless they are extremely talented disciples, it is difficult to be accepted into the sect.
Therefore, although the sects in this world are very powerful, their groups are not large.
Moreover, if you want to establish a sect, you must report to the four countries, and the sect's station must be established on the front line of human defense against demons. In this way, the warriors of the sect are relatively rarely known to the world.
The most common way to practice martial arts is naturally the martial arts studio.
The martial arts gym is open for business, and it is about education without distinction. As long as you are willing to pay to learn, regardless of whether you have qualifications or not, the martial arts gym will include you.
In martial arts parlance, people with qualifications can certainly become martial artists without qualifications, but they can also strengthen their bodies and give some people with poor qualifications a path to become martial arts.
Therefore, warriors from martial arts schools are the largest group in the world. For example, the warriors in various military teams are all selected from martial arts schools in all likelihood.
Moreover, the martial arts school also explains a truth, that is, people with poor qualifications may not be unable to become strong.
There are many martial artists who have graduated from martial arts schools. Through their unremitting efforts and a martial heart, they have gone a long way on the path of martial arts, and many of them have become martial kings.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! No matter which country in the Four Kingdoms the common people are, as long as their children reach the age of twelve, they will send their children to martial arts schools.
If the child really does not have the talent to practice martial arts, then returning home at the age of fifteen or sixteen will not delay anything. But once the child becomes a martial artist, the whole family will benefit from it.
Because even if it is
When a warrior enters the army as a disciple, the salary he earns is enough to support a family of seven or eight people, old and young. This shows that warriors have a high status in these countries.
If you want your family to live a better life, a martial artist can also join the escort agency. The money you earn from one escort trip can keep a family of four from worrying about food and clothing for ten years.
Of course, the dangers of being a dart are too great. Many martial arts disciples will choose to join the army first. After becoming a martial artist and quitting the army, they will go to the dart bureau to experience. By then, their strength will be able to cope with some dangers.
The armies of the Four Kingdoms do not have great restrictions on warriors. As long as they become a martial artist, they can quit at any time, because the army does not rely on individual combat power, but on the strength of the group.
Outside the army, ten martial arts disciples are absolutely no match for a martial artist. The martial artist can easily defeat or even kill them.
But in the army, with the cooperation of the Fu Lu Master and the offensive military formation, ten martial arts disciples can definitely defeat one martial artist and even kill them.
Therefore, the military units do not care about the number of martial arts masters in the army, and after becoming a martial arts master, staying in the army is not conducive to their development, so they naturally will not restrict the number of martial arts masters.
"My lord, do you need me to lead the way?"
Just as Su Xiaofan was walking along the street, a child of twelve or thirteen years old came over and said, "I am familiar with Haotian City. I know where you want to go."
"No need, I'm from Haotian City."
Su Xiaofan smiled gently, looked at the child seriously, and then handed a sky coin to the child's hand. He knew that the child's purpose of making money was most likely to enter a martial arts school to study.
In this world, although deception and abduction are not
There is, but relatively little, pressure from external monsters on humans
It was really too big, and the unity of human beings here was something Su Xiaofan had never seen before.
"Thank you, sir. No...but sir, did you get the wrong one?"
The child was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Xiaofan in disbelief, because this sky coin was his half-year's income.
With this sky coin, the child can directly sign up for the martial arts gym, and he does not need to worry about the tuition fees for the next three years.
The currency system of the four countries was actually headed by the Celestial Dynasty. Who allowed the Celestial Dynasty to produce 70 to 80% of the food produced by the four countries.
Usually people use copper plates. One hundred copper plates can be exchanged for one silver coin, and one hundred silver coins can be exchanged for one gold coin.
As for the Sky Coin, it is a currency circulated among warriors and is very expensive.
The sky coin that Su Xiaofan took out can be exchanged for hundreds of gold coins. At the same time, warriors often use sky coins for transactions.
To study in a martial arts school, the registration fee is three gold coins, and the subsequent monthly fee is one gold coin.
Some famous martial arts schools have higher fees, but even for the most expensive martial arts schools, this sky coin is more than enough.
It can be said that with this sky coin, this child's destiny has been completely changed.
"That's right, go and sign up. This sky coin is enough for you to study at Qingshan Martial Arts School."
Su Xiaofan smiled at the child. He was not a good person, nor could he help so many people.
But Su Xiaofan saw that this child had the aptitude to learn martial arts. Since he met him, Su Xiaofan didn't mind helping him.
"Thank you...Thank you, sir..."
Being hit on the head by a pie falling from the sky, the child felt a little dizzy for a moment. When he looked up again, Su Xiaofan had disappeared in front of him.
A sky coin might help him become a martial artist or even a military commander in the future. Su Xiaofan was still in a good mood. Following the human, he came to the door of a martial arts hall.
The signboard of this martial arts gym is obvious, and its facade is also the most prosperous place on this street. Directly opposite the martial arts gym is a bodyguard agency.
The first two characters of the names of the martial arts hall and the escort agency are the same. The martial arts hall is called Qingshan Martial Arts Hall.
The escort agency is called Qingshan Escort Agency.
These two places are the traces Su Xiaofan left in this world. In the past two to three hundred years, the only industries he left behind were the Qingshan Martial Arts School and the Qingshan Escort Agency.
The Qingshan Escort Bureau is now headed by the King Wu from Sunjia Village, and the Qingshan Martial Arts School is the descendant of a disciple that Su Xiaofan accepted for more than two hundred years.
That disciple has passed away long ago, but his descendants are now also trained as military generals and are only one step away from advancing to the realm of King Wu.
Whether it is the Qingshan Escort Bureau or the Qingshan Martial Arts School, they are all the property of the Su family. The people Su Xiaofan chooses have always been loyal to his "descendants"!
