Gu Zheng didn’t ask for speed, and Tao always ran out to play by himself. Wu You didn’t dare to walk too fast. In this way, he only covered dozens of miles in a day. This was still a difficult place to walk on the road. Gu Zheng
He Tao can directly bring the carriage there, otherwise it will be slower.
Here, Gu Zheng deeply realized the old saying, there is no road in the world, but when there are more people walking, it becomes a road.
Many roads here have been walked by people. When there is no road, they can only walk by themselves. When they encounter people, they use their prey to exchange for something they need, or stay overnight. If there is no one, they just go out in the wild.
camping.
Within a few days, they had enough coarse cloth for making tents. Gu Zheng made two new tents. All the bedding and other items that were missing were now purchased. Gu Zheng also made a new set of bone needles for Aunt Cui.
, this time the bones used are not ordinary bones, but the bones of a monster beast.
Tao went out to play and unexpectedly found the bones of half a monster's body. Although it was not a powerful monster, its bones were much stronger than ordinary beasts. Gu Zheng estimated that the monster's strength during his lifetime should have reached the level of an immortal. He didn't know.
Whoever he offended was killed and his body was thrown here.
This monster must have been killed. There are still scars on its bones. How it died has nothing to do with Gu Zheng, but its bones are very useful. In addition to making bone needles, Gu Zheng also made more than a dozen bone arrows.
This is much sharper than ordinary wooden arrows.
The bone arrows were naturally given to Wu You. Wu You made a bow himself on the way, but unfortunately it was just ordinary animal sinew. Later, when better raw materials were available, Gu Zheng would make him a better and more powerful bow.
The remaining bones were all made into barbecue tools by Gu Zheng. He now has few tools and barbecues a lot on the road. This set of bones is very suitable and can withstand high temperatures better than iron.
In addition to this half-demon bone, Gu Zheng also hunted an elephant, a real elephant.
He didn't know why there were elephants here, but he happened to encounter them. He encountered not just one, but a herd of elephants. However, he only hunted one. It was useless to take more, and he couldn't take it away. One was enough.
.
Ivory asked him to grind out several sets of chopsticks. He had never used such ivory chopsticks before on Earth, but he didn't expect that they would be used here.
Gu Zheng also made six ivory dice as a joke and used the paint he bought to make six dots. Unexpectedly, Tao suddenly fell in love with a new toy and took Wu You to play with the dice every day. In the end, Aunt Cui came to drive the car.
.
It is worth mentioning that the carriage was finally painted and looked much more beautiful. When I met people on the road, there were still people asking how the carriage was made and how much it cost.
The paint painted by Gu Zheng himself is certainly much prettier than the current carriage.
"Master, just ahead is Wujia Town. When we get to Wujia Town, we are only over a thousand miles away from Huiyuan Village!"
After walking for more than a month, we were finally getting closer to Huiyuan Village, which was Aunt Cui's village. At this time, Aunt Cui was a little excited. Although the life outside was not bad, it was still not as good as her own home.
Over the past month or so, Gu Zheng's Tie Xian Immortal Technique has become more refined, reaching 50%, one step closer to the fourth level.
Back on Earth, Gu Zheng's cultivation didn't feel so slow, mainly because of the help of weapon spirits, especially the Immortal Yuan Dan. At that time, Gu Zheng almost practiced with medicine, so he practiced very quickly, and he didn't even have to become an immortal.
After how long it took, Gu Zheng finally understood the difficulty of practicing now that he was completely relying on himself.
If other immortal cultivators or demon cultivators knew his thoughts like this, they would probably strangle him to death.
Even in the prehistoric times, it would take decades for ordinary cultivators to become immortals. Unless the sect had enough resources and spared no effort to train disciples like the famous sects in Shushan in later generations, they could practice in a short time.
Come out, but even so, it can't be done in a year, it will basically take several years.
Gu Zheng came here as a Tie Immortal, and it only took him one year to reach the realm of heavenly immortal. According to his progress, even if it is a little slower, he will definitely break through in two years, but he is still not satisfied. Others know
, I'm afraid I will definitely cry out that it is unreasonable.
Another point is that there are very few sects nowadays. Most of them are people who are successful in cultivation. They find a paradise with abundant immortal power, and then bring a few disciples to practice. Such a scale will definitely not be able to compare with the large number of famous sects.
There are more resources, so the speed of cultivation is not much faster than casual cultivation.
Among casual cultivators, if you are lucky, your cultivation speed will be faster than theirs.
"Let's stay here today. You can go look for us and see if you can find a suitable person to let us stay for the night!"
Gu Zheng had already seen the village in front of him and told Wu You that the tents could be lived in, but when there was a house, he still wanted to live in the house, which was better than in the wild.
Wu You immediately got off the carriage and trotted forward, first going to the village to inquire about it. When Gu Zheng and the others entered the village, Wu You had already found a family and agreed to let them stay.
This kind of thing is easy to handle. They have all kinds of resources now, including a lot of furs and meat. They can use some of them for profit. Many people want to keep them. They only need to stay in two houses for one night and they can harvest one fur.
This is definitely a good thing for them.
Along the way, Wu You found at least 50 or 60 skins of various animals, most of which were hunted by Taotio Boring. They couldn't eat a lot of the meat, so they had to throw it away, including the elephant, leaving only a few.
Most of them were thrown away.
Aunt Cui was still heartbroken for a long time, but she also understood that the carriage could not fit in the carriage and it was impossible to take them all away. In addition to bringing some delicious food, it would be more cost-effective to cover the carriage with furs.
Fur, like cloth, can actually be used as currency in many places.
Wu You was looking for a wealthy family in the town. The wealthy families at this time were different from those in later generations, especially in the villages, that is, the wealthier families had slightly more houses. Unlike many wealthy families in later generations, they were all village tyrants in the village.
, there are actually several "big families" like this in the village.
The four of them, Gu Zheng, lived in a small side courtyard and did everything by themselves. Aunt Cui tidied everything up, while Gu Zheng made something at random. The day was over.
"Get up, the bandits are coming, the bandits are coming!"
Gu Zheng was practicing in the middle of the night. Suddenly there were shouts and people beating gongs outside. Gu Zheng opened his eyes and Tao had jumped up. He and Tao walked out of the door. Wu You was already standing in the yard with a hand on his hand.
Holding a belt knife.
There were also bandits at this time. In fact, wherever there are people, such people are indispensable. Even when life on earth is good in later generations, there will still be similar people, but there are many fewer.
The poorer you are, the more bandits there are.
"Wu You, go out and see what's going on, and pay attention to your safety!"
Gu Zheng gave orders to Wu You, and Wu You immediately nodded, put the bow and bone arrows on his back, and then went out with his waist knife. When he went out, Aunt Cui also got up and looked a little panicked.
"Bandits, are there bandits here too?"
In fact, there are bandits in Huiyuancun, but they are not in large numbers. Huiyuan Village has its own defense force. The bandits have been there a few times, but they did not take advantage and suffered many casualties, so they will never go there again.
Bandits also bully the weak and fear the strong. Wujia Town is smaller than Huiyuan Village, so they are probably targeted by the bandits. Bandits all over the world are the same.
After a while, Wu You ran back with a solemn expression.
"Master, there are really bandits outside the village, and there are quite a few. I just took a look, and there are hundreds of torches. All the young men in the village have brought weapons to the entrance of the village, and they are confronting them there. It seems that the bandits are
I just want to ask for some benefits and will leave!"
The bandits did not enter the village, but were negotiating with the villagers outside the village. Gu Zheng frowned at first, then relaxed his brows and laughed.
"Are you sure there are hundreds of people?" Gu Zheng asked softly.
"It's unmistakable. They are all densely packed. There are a lot of bandits coming here. I don't know when there was such a bandit den here!"
Wu You nodded quickly. The threat of hundreds of bandits was really not small. The young people in Wujia Town combined did not have more than a hundred people. Moreover, the bandits were fierce and well-prepared. The ordinary fence in Wujia Town
It's okay to block some animals, but it can't stop these bandits.
"Torches don't necessarily mean people. Come on, let's go out and take a look!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly and walked out after saying that. Tao followed him all the time. Wu You was stunned for a moment, and after Aunt Cui also followed out, he immediately followed.
Most of the people in the village arrived at the entrance of the village, all nervous, including the family who took Gu Zheng in.
"Why did you come out? I didn't expect that today would bring trouble to you!"
The head of the family was a man in his fifties, also holding a wooden stick. When he saw Gu Zheng and the others, he immediately stepped forward to say something to Wu You, and looked very apologetic.
This person is not bad-hearted, and at this moment, I can still think that they have caused trouble for several people in Gu Zheng.
"It's okay, just don't worry!"
Wu You first secretly glanced at Gu Zheng, then grinned and said, since Gu Zheng has come out, it is naturally impossible to watch these bandits causing trouble. With Gu Zheng around, he has no worries at all.
At this time, he lamented the good luck of the people in this village. If they had not stayed here today, the people in this village might have been really unlucky. If they encountered brutal bandits, the whole village might have been massacred. This kind of thing had happened before
It’s not like it’s never happened before.
"How can I rest assured!"
The owner of the house looked worried. There were indeed hundreds of torches in the distance, flickering in the darkness. The bandit representatives were opening their mouths in the lion's mouth, asking for a lot of things. There were not so many in the village.
"Little doll, you, why are you going!"
The bandits who were negotiating had just returned when Gu Zheng suddenly took a few steps forward and suddenly reached the front of the crowd. He was still walking forward. The owner of the house was stunned for a moment, shouted hurriedly, and grabbed Wu You.
"Quick, look at your baby!"
Gu Zheng is just a child like this, and Wu You is also helpless. Anyone who doesn't know Gu Zheng will treat him as a child, or even their own child. This family is. I have said before that they envy him for having such a couple.
son.
At that time, Wu You didn't dare to agree. He only said that he was his son. He took him out to play and now he was going home.
"fine!"
Wu You shook his head. Gu Zheng was an immortal. How could these mortals harm an immortal? He really wasn't worried at all.
"Little doll, don't go there!"
"Come back quickly, it's dangerous!"
The surrounding villagers were also shouting, but now Gu Zheng had already walked far away. Even though he was young, he was not walking slowly.
Not long after, the people on the opposite side also noticed a doll coming from the village. Those who were wary at first started laughing when they saw Gu Zheng.
"You fools, if you don't agree to our conditions, we will massacre the village. Why do you send us a baby first? We won't eat the baby!"
"That's it, don't think of us like Wang Dazui. No matter how hungry we are, we won't eat people even if we starve to death!"
The bandits laughed and teased the villagers, but they didn't expect that their words saved their lives.
"What do you want? I have more than fifty animal skins of various types, including seventeen or eighteen porcupine skins. Do you want them?"
After Gu Zheng approached, he stopped and asked with a smile. After hearing what he said, the bandits immediately became quiet and their eyes gleamed.
There are more than fifty animal skins, including seventeen or eighteen porcupine skins. This is a lot of wealth. With these things, they can be exchanged for a lot of food, and they will no longer starve.
"Yes, why not? Hurry, ask your adults to bring it over!"
Two people had already ran over, trying to catch Gu Zheng. Unfortunately, as soon as they got close, the man flew back. Even they themselves didn't know how.
"Bump!"
The two fell to the ground, both screaming and not getting up.
The villagers here didn't know what was going on. They only heard that Gu Zheng reported a huge fortune. Many people were still upset about why such a stupid outsider came to the village today and said that there were so many things. What if?
If you can't take it out, it will completely anger these bandits.
Then, they heard two dull sounds and the screams of the two people. Many people looked at each other inexplicably. The bandits were hundreds of meters away from them. If it was daytime, it would be okay and they could see clearly, but
At night, you can only see the light from the opposite side, and people can't see clearly.
"Sure enough, it's all fake!"
Gu Zheng had already walked among the bandits, looked around, and the smile on his face became wider.
There are only about twenty people here, and the rest are torches held up by thick branches, which look like people from a distance.
From the beginning when Wu You went back to report, Gu Zheng thought of this possibility. How could hundreds of bandits come to attack the village at night? You must know that the village's defense is weak at night, but they can't see clearly and it is easy to accidentally injure their own people.
.
With so many people, daytime is enough.
Also, so many people were still negotiating with the village and asking for things. Even at night, the village could not withstand their attack. At this time, Gu Zheng guessed that there was a scam. He just came to take a look, and ended up with
He guessed exactly the same.
There are not that many bandits at all, and 80% of them are fake. Of course, with such a small number of people, they would not dare to attack the village, and they would not dare to come during the day. If they come during the day, they will completely defeat the gang.
"What's wrong with you?"
The bandits were all shocked. The bandit leader was a tall man with a beard and very powerful. Bandit leaders these days must have a certain amount of strength, otherwise they would not be able to suppress the people under them.
"I don't know, we haven't caught the doll yet, but I just felt a strong force grabbing me, and then I couldn't move, and then it flew over!"
One person reluctantly sat up, rubbed his body, and spoke quickly. Gu Zheng ignored these people, walked around, and then started laughing.
"Tell me, if I tell the other party that you only have this few people, what will be the consequences?"
There are only twenty-two of them in total, and two of them were injured by him just now. Although there are not a hundred young men across the street, there are still fifty or sixty people. Plus the other people in the village, there are hundreds of men.
Hundreds of people rushed out with sticks, but they couldn't resist.
After all, they are ordinary people, not soldiers. Fighting between bandits is purely a melee. At most, they have knives, but not everyone among these twenty people has knives, only five or six, and the rest are only wooden sticks and forks.
A fork or a wooden fork.
"You, who are you?"
The bandit leader did not dare to underestimate Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng was not acting like a baby at all, especially when his men suddenly flew back, which made him very afraid.
"It doesn't matter who I am. Judging from your arrangements, I can be considered a smart person. Why do I have to be a bandit?"
Gu Zheng said lightly that he was not a simple-minded bandit who could come up with such a trick to deceive the villagers and even open his mouth to ask for things. This kind of thing would not be considered clever in the future of the earth, but now it is
It was still the early days of the prehistoric period. Gu Zheng can guarantee that he definitely came up with this by himself.
I have never come up with such an idea before. It is already very good. At least this bandit leader is a brave and resourceful person, not just relying on strength.
"Why should I answer you? Who are you?"
The bandit leader was still vigilant, and several men with knives had already surrounded Gu Zheng, but no one dared to move at this moment. Gu Zheng was too calm, so he either had something to rely on or was a fool.
But the accident of the two men just now made him understand that Gu Zheng was definitely not a fool, so he was very nervous at this moment. Even if he surrounded him with people holding knives, he didn't feel any sense of security.
"You don't have to answer, but just don't regret it!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly and suddenly disappeared. Then all the people holding knives screamed, all the knives in their hands were dropped, and they couldn't even lift their arms.
Not only them, but the remaining bandits were also subdued by Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng did not impose any restrictions on them, but only dislocated them and made them unable to use their strength. In this way, they no longer posed any threat to the villagers.
"Now, are you willing to answer?"
Gu Zheng walked up to the bandit leader. The bandit leader received his extra treatment. Not only was his arm dislocated, but his legs could not move. He was lying on the ground. However, he did not cry out and just looked at Gu Zheng in horror.
