Chapter 56: Overnight in a remote village

At this moment, Ji Yuan was walking alone on the official road to the north of Ning'an County, running and jumping leisurely from time to time, and the whole person was in a good mood.

There is very little luggage with you, except for the clothes on the body, there is only one umbrella covering an umbrella, and there is a set of inner and outer clothes in the bag. The rest is a lot of copper coins and sundries, and fresh dates that occupy half of the space. , about four pounds.

Except for a piece of jade pendant given by Wei Wuwei, Ji Yuan's entire wealth was exchanged for the remaining one hundred and forty taels of silver and silver notes, which were exchanged for some broken silver and some copper coins, and then most of them were exchanged for a gold ingot.

In addition to the gold jewelry of the elders, Ji Yuan had never seen much gold in his two lifetimes. He thought that this ingot of ten taels of gold would be very large, but he did not expect that it was only a very small piece, and it even looked a little miniature.

Ji Yuan walked around leisurely, and then took out gold ingots from his arms to play with. This doesn't mean he is greedy for money, it's just a feeling of getting a new toy.

"Gold is really heavy!"

With a sigh, he weighed it and put it back into the inner bag in his arms.

The reason why I spend so much effort to exchange money is not because I don’t want to go on the road easily, but I have already understood it after a few months. There is no such developed banking system in this world as in my previous life, not to mention inter-state and inter-prefecture banks are rare. Ning’an County The bank notes of the local bank cannot be withdrawn from other places, and they can only be withdrawn in cash and taken away.

Ji Yuan of this meeting is very envious of Lu Shanjun. The guy's stomach doesn't know what structure it is, so the big white tiger skin can be spit out. Maybe it's a treasure to take out the stomach bag!

Even if we take the official road, the scenery along the route is still beautiful. There are fields and green trees everywhere, and there are also many farmlands where farmers shuttle.

Although he could see it vaguely, the sound of water planting rice seedlings, the farmers' chatter and the birdsong around him made him naturally make up the picture.

The clatter of hooves sounded from the rear, accompanied by the shouts and whips of the riders.

"Drink~~ drive... drive..."

As the sound approached, Ji Yuan hurriedly ducked to the side. After a while, three horses ran across the road in a row, and the horses' hoofs carried a puff of smoke.

"Having a horse is amazing!"

Ji Yuan murmured in a low voice, and continued to drive his own No. 11 bus.

Actually, Ji Yuan also wanted to buy a horse, and he had enough money to buy a decent horse.

But the problem is, firstly, Jiyuan has never ridden a horse in his life, and secondly, when you buy a horse, you don’t just need to ride it, you have to take care of it, and you have to take care of it. It feels super troublesome.

I don't know how to ride. I believe that it is not difficult to learn with the current physical foundation, but taking care of a horse can be cumbersome, so I don't plan to spend this not cheap money. It's almost like buying a car, you can't do it!

Anyway, let's think that someone is also good at immortal magic, and his martial arts are not bad. With the movement technique that integrates the will of the dragon, how can he be inferior to a horse?

'Well, it's convenient! ’

Having said that, now seeing others riding tall horses, I still have a strange mentality of envying other children's beautiful toys.

Reaching out to the gap in the cover behind his back, he took out two jujubes, nibbled at one, and swayed with his feet, using the light-gong movement technique, turning into a blue shadow and swept away.

Ji Yuan didn't plan to travel over the mountains, no matter how high the martial arts is, he is half blind. The rough road is either impossible to walk, or too laborious, and Lu Shanjun is a tiger spirit, Ji someone is still a little confused, so he doesn't test his luck .

I have already carefully touched the engraved paperweight map. I don’t have to worry about finding the wrong way along the official road for now. I will wait until I leave Ning’an County along the north, and then move eastward. I will find the city and ask for directions.

By comparing several place names that can be found on the engraved paperweight map, and comparing the word meaning of Jianyi and the lines hidden in Jianyi, Ji Yuan spent a little bit to figure out that the tomb of the hero of Zuo should be far away in Wanzhou , the past is not a temporary thing.

So Ji Yuan's current destination is to go to Chunmu River to see if he can find the old turtle.

Although Ji Yuan only knows the section of the river roughly west of Chunhui Mansion, but presumably with Wei Wuwei's astuteness, he will definitely use various means to force out some details among the black-clothed people, and it will be good on May 15th. watching the play.

. . .

Ning'an County is a small remote county. The main area is close to Niukui Mountain, and the scope is relatively narrow and long. Jiyuan travels all the way, sometimes walking slowly and sometimes rushing. When it gets dark, it has already left the boundary of Ning'an County.

Normally, it should be in the adjacent Shunbao County, but the people in the middle section are gradually sparse, and there is a large section of the road where you can't even see the fields, let alone ask someone for directions, so Ji Yuan has no idea what he is. When it’s time to turn eastward, at the end of the day, you have a heart, and if you find a wide road that is eastward, you just turn in and just go forward.

This walk doesn't feel very good. For a long time, there are no people, and the sky turns dark. Finally, I can see the farmland from a distance. Komura appeared in sight.

There is a small river on the edge of the village. It's so dark that you can't see the others, but the reflection of the river water in the night can still be seen.

It seems that the development of Shunbao County is far inferior to that of Ning'an County.

It is impossible to find an inn in this kind of place. The best thing is to find someone else to sleep in. In the case of a high probability of getting lost, it is lucky to be able to find a village.

. . .

At this time, most of the villagers who were busy with farm work in the village had already gone home, and few were outside.

Compared with the flat official road, the path at the end of the village is much more rugged. Because of vision, I can walk fast. I stumble from time to time, but my balance is very good, so I didn't fall. Fortunately, I walked slowly and recovered. stable.

Of course, if you really move with your body, it's not impossible to be steady and fast, but it's not to show off your fate. Maybe it's more like a ghost at night. If it's too exaggerated, the villagers will be uneasy and be a weak passerby. To gain sympathy, it is more convenient to stay overnight and eat a meal.

At the entrance of the village, some villagers also noticed that someone was coming, but at first they didn't care, thinking who was coming back to the village late, and then they realized that they were not from their own village.

"Hey~~~ the one in front, who are you? What are you doing here!!"

An old man shouted at Ji Yuan, and a young villager came out with a lit paper lantern from the house.

This era is not the time of the previous life. This kind of remote village is surrounded by fences at night to guard against wild animals and thieves. Strangers are good people and bad people need to be carefully screened.

"This old man!! I'm just a passerby. It's already dark and my feet are slow. It's too scary to go on the road at night, so it's not convenient to stay overnight in the village!!"

Ji Yuan also responded with a loud voice, and then kept his feet, slowly approaching the head of the village, and from time to time symbolically pointed the tip of his umbrella on the road, UU read www.uukanshu.com to see if there were any raised stones. trip yourself up.

When they got close, a few villagers gathered at the entrance of the village also saw the general appearance of Ji Yuan, a wide-sleeved robe with casual hair on the temples, long hair covered with a bun on the top of his head, and a wooden hairpin on the top of his head, which looked very gentle.

Looking at Ji Yuan, although most of the time, he walked normally, but he walked very slowly, and if he stumbled, he would immediately poke the road ahead with his umbrella, thinking that his eyes were not very good.

"Sir, your eyes?"

"Oh, my eyes are really bad, and it's really inconvenient to walk at night. I hope you can let me stay overnight!"

Behind the wooden fence gate, the old man in the hood took the lantern from the young man's hand on the side, picked out some and took a closer look at Ji Yuan, staring at the shadow under his feet tilted by the light of the lantern, and then looked at his complexion and eyes.

"Okay, this gentleman wait... Huzi, open the door and let the gentleman in!"

Ji Yuan hurriedly held the umbrella and bowed.

"Thank you, thank you, everyone!"

Phew... Life is like a drama and it all depends on acting, I think someone has a place to sleep tonight!

"Squeaky..."

The wooden pivot made a slightly harsh sound, but Ji Yuan keenly noticed that the positions of several young and strong villagers seemed to be a bit doorway, and some seemed to be holding things in their hands.

'Am I too happy too soon? ’

"Come in, sir, this old man will give you a hand!"

The old man didn't wait for Ji Yuan to speak, he stepped over to support Ji Yuan's hand, and when he touched Ji Yuan's body temperature, he felt relieved.

"Don't be surprised, sir, go for a walk, go to the old man's house for a drink first!"

"Uh... good!"

Ji Yuan let the old man help him, and while walking, he looked at the villagers who were closing the door and a few others scattered, thinking about the doorway.
