The interval between Daxian's sermons was quite long. Last time it was only 12 years, but this time it was 20 years. Therefore, more people around came to these ten villages, even to the distant Fucheng.
There have been some human countries in the flood and famine, but for the villagers here, the country is still far away. They don't even know where their capital is. The biggest place they know is Fucheng.
According to the people who have been to Fucheng in the village, Fucheng is very, very big. The city wall is almost a foot high. There are many people in Fucheng, and there are many things that are not available in the village.
Only a few people in the village have been to Fucheng. What they say and what others believe. The city wall more than one foot high is indeed much stronger than the fence of their village. The fence of their village is more than one meter high at most, and more than one foot high, which is four or five meters high.
These ancient disputes have also been heard. However, according to his understanding, this so-called Fu city is only an ordinary small city. Most of the walls of one foot are no more than six meters at most. In some cities he has seen in the flood and famine, the lowest of the walls is three feet high.
As for the capital city, there are almost four or even five foot walls. Ordinary walls of more than one foot are really not a big city.
However, this is the early stage of the famine, not when the human immortals dominate the famine. From this point of view, the city with more than a foot of the city wall is not small. At least ordinary beasts will not pose a great threat to such a city. They are not particularly sensitive beasts and can't jump to the city wall at all.
Unless monsters appear, but even in the early days of famine, the Lich and Lich families will not kill ordinary people casually, especially the Lich family. They believe that the human race is created by Nu Wa, one of the leaders of the Lich family, so they are tolerant of the human race, but only limited to ordinary people, and will not show mercy to the immortals who threaten them.
There is no strong man, just an ordinary beast. Now the city is absolutely the safest.
Aunt Cui's village is called Wuyuan village. No one in the village knows why it has such a name. The old people in the village say that their village has existed for hundreds of years. At the beginning, how they came here and gathered into a village, and who their ancestors were. At present, no one can tell.
Not that they didn't know their ancestors, but at the beginning they didn't have written records, and there were no educated people in the village. After a long time, there were all kinds of legends. Guangguzheng heard as many as five or six, and there were many things he didn't know. In this way, no one could tell their origin clearly.
Basically, few families have their own saying. Together, there are at least a dozen kinds, which are different. More is equal to none. Any one may be true and any one may not be true.
However, they have one thing in common, that is, their ancestors came from the East, and the Fucheng is in the East. Many people think they can go to Fucheng all their life. Unfortunately, if they go to Fucheng and walk there, they can go back and forth for at least half a year, and many people can't go so far at one time.
This time, three families in Fucheng sent their children. They were all big families. They all rode fast and sent people to ride horses. Otherwise, before they arrived in such a short time, the preaching of Daxian might be over.
People came to the mansion, which made the nearby villages lively again. Many people ran to see what the people from the mansion looked like, or their carriages. No matter these ten villages or nearby villages, there were at most some simple and open cattle carriages. They had never seen such comfortable and luxurious double horse or four horse carriages.
For them, it was like a small mountain village in the 1970s when a Mercedes Benz suddenly entered, which would attract onlookers.
The time from Daxian to preach is getting shorter and shorter, and the number of people in the village is gradually no longer increasing. Half a month later, the list of people who should have been reported has been reported, and those who have not been reported are a few. Either they have no children and want to sell at a high price, or someone has said hello and waited for others to come.
"Finally to the second floor!"
That afternoon, Gu Zheng got up from bed and took a long breath. He practiced in the village for more than two months. In addition, he practiced the tiexian formula to the second level after more than two months and five months.
At this time, he especially missed the elixir and food repair in those years. If he wanted to make food repair, he must have good raw materials. These raw materials must be in the flood and famine, but his strength was too weak to go out to find them.
These days, he is also supervising Taotao's Secret practice, and the progress of Taotao makes Gu Zheng jealous and jealous.
Similarly, he has to work harder than Tao. Tao is practicing hard every day, but Tao is lazy. He can't practice at all without him. He spends less than half of his training time every day, but now his progress is much better than Gu Zhengzheng.
The second level of the tiexian formula, the strength of the ancient struggle now, is probably equivalent to the second level of the vigorous cultivators in the earth. This strength is very powerful among ordinary people. Even a dozen adults can never be the opponent of the ancient struggle.
Tao cultivates at will. At this time, his strength is equivalent to the later stage of the third floor, which is more than a little stronger than Gu Zheng. It can be said that if they fight now, Gu Zheng is not Tao's opponent at all. Tao can deal with several Gu Zheng alone.
Of course, the real competition is not only strength, but also various skills and tricks. If you really fight, you can't fight Taotao, but it's no problem to avoid the past. If you use a little tricks, you can also make Taotao suffer some losses, but that's the only limit. It's not completely impossible to really beat Taotao, but the hope is very low.
It's useless if you can't keep up with your strength. Gu Zheng was depressed for a while. You can only think of the opportunity to make some good food repairs in the future to strengthen yourself.
However, Taotao's strength is always a good thing. Moreover, he is obedient to Gu Zheng now. He won't listen to anyone except Gu Zheng, even aunt Cui, who has been taking care of them.
In the middle, there is another episode.
Once before, Gu Zheng practiced behind closed doors in the name of taking a nap. He was bored and ran out. As a result, some children in the village teased him. As a result, he didn't do anything, but his face showed a fierce color, which scared the children to cry.
Several children cried. Their adults were unhappy and found Tao together. One adult wanted to teach him a lesson. Tao threw him out for a long time and failed to get up for several days.
Fortunately, Gu Zheng has always told him not to conflict with anyone here. Even if there is a conflict, he is absolutely not allowed to use heavy hands. He remembers this, otherwise he will fall to death.
A child can throw adults out. No one dared to do it when others saw this scene. Soon, the people in the village knew that one of the two children adopted by Aunt Cui was very strong and the adults couldn't do it. Then no one dared to provoke him, and no one dared to provoke Gu Zheng, which made Gu Zheng more clean.
Since she found that the food made by Gu Zheng was delicious, aunt Cui often asked Gu Zheng to cook. She started because Aunt Cui's family had delicious food. Some people began to eat and drink. After this incident, almost all the people who came to eat disappeared, which relieved aunt Cui and Gu Zheng.
It's time for the immortal to preach in half a month. Fortunately, before that, Gu Zheng broke through to the second floor. With the current power and the power of Taona in the later stage of the third floor, the two people can basically walk sideways outside as long as they don't encounter the Lich family or immortal.
According to Gu Zheng's plan, he and Tao should leave at this time.
He didn't want to attend the so-called great immortal sermon. According to the description of the villagers, although Gu Zheng didn't know what method the great immortal used and what he had done before, at least he was sure that he was a powerful man and at least a real immortal.
Real immortals, whether celestial or golden, can't be dealt with by ancient struggle. It's better to stay away from them before there is no assurance of self-protection.
Therefore, Gu Zheng's plan is to leave secretly before Da Xian preaches. He has a new goal, that is, to go to Fucheng, where there are more people and more resources. See if he can buy some superior raw materials, so that he can make food cultivation. With food cultivation, his cultivation will be faster. Now he wants to enhance his cultivation, As for the state of mind, don't worry at all.
Once the most powerful quasi saint, he can't cultivate his state of mind again. That's a joke.
After all, the village is too small to obtain the cultivation resources he needs. Only the imperial city and even the larger cities have such an opportunity. As for going into the mountains or wilderness to find it by themselves, Gu Zheng has no plan for the time being. Their strength is still too weak. If it doesn't matter on the earth, there are few strong people there, but here is a flood wasteland, even the strong people with quasi holy strength, I'm afraid it'll be over if I run into a more powerful character.
Therefore, before they don't have enough strength, Gu Zheng should keep a low profile.
At present, the biggest problem for adults is their age. After a few months of practice, their body has grown a little faster than ordinary children, but the growth is limited. At present, they look like four years old at most, which is due to their size.
With such a body, it is certainly not convincing to deal with others. After arriving at Fucheng, Gu Zheng still has to find a way to find an agent. He can use limited immortal power now, but some small fairies can be used, and there is still no problem controlling an ordinary person.
An agent will come out, so that whatever they do in the future, it will be much more convenient.
"Why did we sneak out!"
In the evening, Gu Zheng took Tao and quietly left the village. With their strength, as long as they don't want to be found, others can't see them. It's just that Tao looks a little unhappy and is woken up after a good dream. It's strange that he can be in a good mood.
"Don't ask, let's go there first!"
Gu Zheng shook his head. He didn't come out to leave this time. Aunt Cui has lived here for more than two months. Aunt Cui is kind to them. Gu Zheng can't just walk away. He wants to prepare something for Aunt Cui to make up for it.
What's more, aunt Cui took out the two places she had this time. Whether this place is useful to Gu Zheng or not, it is of great use to Aunt Cui, so he can't walk away at will.
Gold and silver are commonly used here. It's a pity that there are few gold and silver in such a village. Most of the people in the village trade in barter. Only in the city can there be money like gold and silver.
Even if there is, Gu Zheng can't steal someone else's to Aunt Cui. In that case, he's not helping aunt Cui, but harming him. Therefore, Gu Zheng can only go out and find enough things to compensate.
Not long after leaving the village, a white horse appeared beside them.
This horse has been in aunt Cui's house recently. Gu Zheng has been feeding it. Apart from what Gu Zheng gave it, it was never eaten by others. Many people came to the village these days. Some people took a fancy to this horse and wanted to buy it. They took out a treasure they had only heard of and never seen in the village and gave it to Aunt Cui. Aunt Cui didn't sell it.
Aunt Cui said it was very simple. The horse was not hers. It belonged to these two children. If you want to sell it, you can only sell it to these two children. However, they are young and adults are not here. Only when they are adults can you say business. Just ask her.
Some people thought about this horse, but the horse king didn't recognize anyone except Gu Zheng. He didn't eat other people's things and couldn't steal them if he wanted to steal them. Once someone tried to steal them by force and was kicked by the horse. In addition, Taotao showed a little strength, and then no one was playing this horse.
"Little white dragon, go ahead!"
Gu Zheng jumped on the horse's back and pulled Tao behind him. There was a simple saddle on the horse's back, which was made by Gu Zheng himself. It was small or double. He made it for himself and Tao.
The little white dragon is the name he gave the white horse. It's an evil interest here. He imitates the name of the white dragon horse of the Tang monk. It's a pity that other people's white dragon horse is a real dragon. He's just a horse.
Moreover, Tang monk doesn't know when it will appear in the future. Now it is still the Lich period. After the Lich war, the Terran will gradually become stronger and stronger. Then there is the famous war of gods. After the war of gods, there is a story of learning from the West.
Today, the so-called Tang Dynasty has not even seen a trace, and the Buddhas in the West have not really appeared. Even the two saints of the Buddhism are estimated to have limited cultivation and have not yet become saints.
They did not become saints, which can be confirmed by the ancient debate. The reason is very simple. Sanqing and the two saints of Buddhism are human after all. If they become saints and so many saints are there, even if the twelve ancestors are not their opponents, how can the world be ruled by the two lichs.
Such a simple truth let him know that the ten holy immortals in the famine now have no strong strength, or he doesn't know others. At least he knows that the later sage tie Xian is still just a child.
The direction of Gu Zheng is to the south, where there is a large bamboo forest.
The place Gu Zheng wants to go is this bamboo forest. There is a porcupine in the bamboo forest. It is very big, has fangs and has great strength. This porcupine is very fierce. Wolves will run away when they see it, unless it is the whole wolf group. According to the people in the village, even tigers will walk around when they see porcupines.
Porcupine is fierce, but it tastes delicious. Porcupine teeth and fur are specially purchased, which can exchange a lot of food. Porcupine fur is very hard, but very light and thin, which is very suitable for defensive leather armor, so it is of high value.
The village originally organized hunting, that is, hunting porcupines. They only dare to hunt one porcupine at a time, and they can't succeed every time. However, once they succeed, the harvest is not small. Not to mention delicious pork, fur and teeth, they can sell a good price. If they go back and share it, each family can have more food for several days.
Unfortunately, since aunt Cui's man and father-in-law had an accident five years ago, the village has never hunted porcupines. They have no strength and can only catch some simple prey.
Gu Zheng's goal is porcupine, and it's not one. If you go back, you can make up for Aunt Cui's loss.
Little white dragon ran very fast and soon reached the bamboo forest. Although Gu Zheng was not afraid of porcupines, he didn't dare to be careless. After careful observation, he got off his horse and took Taotao to the inside. As for little white dragon, let it wait outside the forest.
The little white dragon is the king of horses. Yes, it has strong power, but fighting is not its strength. The porcupine is a fierce beast. The little white dragon is not necessarily an opponent. There is no need to bring it.
Besides, there are tall bamboos in the bamboo forest. The little white dragon can't move in it, and its speed strength will be limited. In this way, it's better to let it wait outside.
Bamboo is the food of porcupines, especially bamboo shoots, which are the favorite of porcupines. Usually, where there are many bamboo shoots, there will be porcupines there. This is the experience summarized by the villagers. In the past, they also used this to set traps and catch porcupines.
Gu Zheng didn't look for it at the edge of the bamboo forest. He directly pulled Tao in. Although he entered it, his vigilance was not reduced. If there was something wrong, he would come out with Tao at any time.
There should be no demon clan or Witch clan in this bamboo forest. It is too close to the place where human beings live. Both the witch clan and the witch clan don't like human beings and don't like being close to human beings. This is different from the later. Some demon clans even pretend to be human beings in order to enjoy the prosperity of the world, but not at this time.
At this time, the whole Terran is a weak race in their eyes, just like the immortals of the primitive Terran in later generations facing monsters. When they mention monsters, they always despise them, and they will cry evil animals openly or secretly.
After walking for half an hour, Gu Zheng suddenly stopped. There was a large area of bamboo shoots in front of him. Gu Zheng also noticed that there were other existence here, more than one.
Soon, under the moonlight, Gu Zheng saw six green highlights in the distance, six of which were three wild animals. He was not sure whether they were porcupines, but this was the territory of porcupines. Even tigers would not survive here. At this time, it was very possible to see such obvious wild animal eyes as porcupines.
"What's that!"
Taotao is not afraid at all, but curious. Gu Zheng found that Taotao has never been afraid of anything and has never revealed fear. At any time, no matter what, there is only novelty.
