After the light rays faded, I opened my eyes. The world before me was already a stranger. I felt a little apprehensive as I thought about how I was the only one left in this place. Despite my uneasiness, after experiencing so much, I no longer felt helpless. After all, the future was in my hands. He took a deep breath and looked around. The blue sky and white clouds were everywhere. The gentle breeze carried the faint fragrance of flowers and plants. As he took a deep breath, the sweetness of nature filled his stomach. His mood could not help but brighten up.

"Squeak, squeak …"

"Hiss hiss …"

What? They were Treading on the Snow and Dou Dou, who would have thought that they would actually follow them. I patted the snow and touched it. Touch Dou Dou said: "Old friend, we meet again! "There will only be the three of us in the future!"

I mounted my horse and galloped off toward the distant tribe.

Who would have thought that Yao's era had developed quite well, and the houses and gardens were also of a considerable scale. But how do I get into this era? You won't put me in a cage like you did in Zakhar! I carefully walked into the tribe. I didn't expect that no one would pay attention to me, a stranger. They were all gathered in front of a high platform, looking at something. I leaned in to see what was going on, but there were too many people and I had to squeeze in. "On the dais was a huge clay pot, with no idea what was in it. A few people were wandering around it, looking distressed.

I asked the old man beside me, "Uncle, what are they doing?"

The old man stroked his beard as he sized me up and said, "Young man, look at your tattered and fine horses! You do not know that our leader, Shun Gang, ascended the throne with the intention of finding a wise man to serve as advisor. He answered three questions, this was the first one, do you see that jar? Inside was a peach. You couldn't use tools or touch a jar. If you could get the peach, you had to pass. One pass for an ox, three straight passes for ten cows and can be a advisor. "Young lad, do you want to try?"

When I heard that it was Shun who was looking for a strategist, I became excited. This is a huge opportunity! So I jumped up onto the platform. I'm still wondering how I managed to jump in at that time, two meters high!)

"Is this warrior here to challenge the next stage?" a scholarly man asked me.

I nodded. "As long as you don't use your hands or touch the jar to get the peach, you pass?"

The scholar nodded and gave me his place. I looked around and saw several buckets of water nearby. Without saying anything further, I lifted the bucket and poured the water into the jar. After pouring three buckets of water, the peach floated out. I grabbed the peach and ate it. Not bad, it's very sweet.

After I finished eating, I noticed that everyone below the stage had a regretful look on their faces. They probably knew that it was useless, hehe! A cow was in his hands.

The scholar said to me, "Congratulations on passing. Please wait a moment, warrior. We will now answer the second question."

I stood watching as a few of the brawny men carried away the pots, then brought a load of grain and a load of rice and mixed them. It can't be that I have to separate the two kinds of food!

The scholar said to me, "The second question is, can't you find someone to help you store the two grains in one day?"

F * * k! I asked, "Can I use tools?"

The scholar nodded and left. Looking at such a huge pile of food, I am worried. If I were to find a sieve in modern times and pick it after a while, would I still need a day? A sieve? That's right! He could just make one for himself. He found a piece of hard leather and pierced it with a lot of small eyes. The size of the skin was just enough to let the grain leak out because the skin was already very hard. That's why you don't have to add an outside frame. I grabbed a handful of grain and began sifting through it. The two loads of food were separated in a matter of moments. Although the food has been sifted out, no one cares about me. I think they all went to eat lunch. I'm the only one on the stage, I'm so lonely!

"Young man, I'll give you two cakes to eat. How can I have the strength to choose food if I don't eat!" I don't know when the old man from the crowd came up to me and held up two cakes.

Looking at the two cakes, my heart warmed and I said to him, "Uncle, thank you. I've already separated the grains and we're waiting for someone to check them."

I jumped down from the table and sat on the floor with Uncle. This was the first time I ate pancakes here, and it was so fragrant!

The uncle looked at me wolfing down his food with a smile and said, "Young man, what's your name? "Where did you come from?"

As I ate, I said, "My name is Long Fei and I come from a long distance away."

The uncle handed me a gourd and said, "Here, have some water and watch you choke. I didn't expect you to be such a smart person. Even ten people wouldn't be able to finish picking so much food in a day! "It seems like the advisor is you!"

After I finished eating the biscuit and drank a few mouthfuls of water, I said, "Uncle, are the cows here worth anything? What can ten oxen get in return? "

The uncle puzzledly asked me, "What is money? "Ox is a good thing. Two oxen can marry a wife."

F * * k! At this time, how could there be such a thing as "money" in the era of the clan commune?! However, it was still quite precious for two oxen to be able to marry a wife.

I asked casually, "How many sons does uncle have?" Have you all taken your wives? "

The uncle sighed and said, "I have five sons and three daughters. The daughters have all been married, and the three eldest sons have also married their wives. Even if your family had too much food, you wouldn't be able to exchange it for a cow. A hundred buckets of food can only be exchanged for a cow! "

I was thinking, "If I pass all three stages, there will be ten cows. Let these cows give birth to calves, I will become a professional cattle farmer in the future. Haha …" Ah? What am I thinking! Am I going to stay here for the rest of my life?

"Eh? You finished it so quickly? " The man who looked like a scholar came back and was surprised to see that I had finished dividing the food.

I thanked Uncle again and went back up on the platform. He said to him, "I wonder if I passed or not?"

The scholar nodded and clapped his hands three times. At that moment, two people came to pick up the food. After a while the two returned with two beautiful women.

The scholar said, "Originally, I wanted to be a strategist, but I don't think I have any hope of passing these two trials. I'll give you these two beauties and ten cows, can't you give me this opportunity? "

He didn't expect the scholar to be such a person. A person who knew how to take bribes was not a good person. He absolutely could not be Shun's advisor, otherwise what if he led Shun astray?

I said without hesitation, "No! "Firstly, I am not an idiot. Secondly, you must be careful not to let your leader advise you. Thirdly, you must not take any chances while you are on the ground …"

After I said these words, that scholar actually didn't get angry and instead clapped. He can't be crazy! I stayed on the stage, not knowing what to do, but the two women laughed and ran down the steps.

"Congratulations on passing three trials in a row. Please follow me." The scholar smiled at me.

Before I could react, my uncle shouted, "Foolish boy, he is our leader, Shun. You've passed the test, hurry up and go. "

I was fooled by Shun! He felt a little depressed. I remember reading that Shun was short and fat, about the same height as Wu Dalang, with dark skin and a round, big head and a mouth like a fish's. After all, being depressed was something to be happy about. I shouted to the uncle below the stage, "Uncle, thank you for the biscuit. I'll give you all ten of my cows."

Uncle didn't seem to believe me at all. He just stood there and didn't react. I laughed to myself, then said to Shun, "My ten oxen will trouble you to send them to this uncle's house."

Shun nodded. He seems to admire my way of doing things. I followed Shun to his house. It was a large house, and the room I was given was next to Shun's. It was well-furnished, but it seemed too simple for a leader. From these, it could be seen that Shun was definitely an outstanding leader, but unfortunately, such a person didn't have a warm home. According to history, after Shun's mother passed away, she treated him extremely badly. I wanted to see what this evil mother looked like. I saw this wicked mother at dinner, and she was — pretty, with fine eyebrows and fine eyes, very white skin, and thin lips that showed her being mean. She was polite to me instead of saying anything, but her eyes kept blinking as if she were thinking of something. Shun's father, the police officer, was obviously a cowardly person, a thin and frail old man who would look into his wife's eyes whenever he spoke. Shun's little brother, Elephant, was really a very arrogant person. He didn't even look at me, and probably treated me as a beggar. The other two women at the table were worthy of my attention. They were the two beauties Shun had used to test me with. After Shun's introduction, I realized that they were Yao's two daughters, Queen E and Ying. So, Yao had already started paying attention to Shun. In the future, he would have to ensure Shun's safety. After all, there were three people in this family who wanted him dead!

After a simple meal, I went back to rest. In the middle of the night, when I was desperately looking for a place to leak the water, I found that the lights were still burning in the police station. I quietly leaned out of the window to hear if they had any tricks up their sleeves.

"Old man, look at what kind of luck that Shun has gone through! Yao gave him so many cows and sheep and even married his two daughters! Look at our son, Elephant, and we still haven't gotten a wife yet! That son of yours didn't even say he was helping us out!"

The superintendent sighed. "Ah! "We, the elephant, have a very high opinion of him. The girl that he has taken a fancy to is the daughter of a foreign leader, but he didn't take a fancy to her. Is it clear that he doesn't agree with her asking for a hundred cows?"

Shun's stepmother said in a low voice, "In that case, let's kill Shun so that all his property belongs to us."

"No way, no matter what, he is still my son!" The police had a little conscience.

Shun's stepmother suddenly raised her voice. "What? Is the elephant not your son? I didn't expect you to dislike him so much. I don't want to live anymore, what's the point in the future! Woo … "Wow …"

After her, the police officer immediately said, "Alright, alright, alright, stop crying. Tomorrow, I'll tell Shun to fix the granary. When he gets up, I'll light a torch and burn him to death, okay?"

Hearing this, that shrew broke into a laugh. I was so angry that I almost died. What kind of person is this!? It was truly a pity that Shun had such a father. I was in no mood to continue listening. When I returned to my room, I glanced at the granary. It was four or five meters high. Jumping down would inevitably cause me some injuries. After returning to my room, I thought about how I could resolve this crisis. I thought about the two large hat hanging on the wall. I jumped up and fanned them with my hat. Not bad, not bad.

Just as my head touched the pillow, I jumped again. It turned out that I suddenly thought of the Jade Plate that fell out of the Nine Dragons Treasure Chest. Picking up the necklace, he saw that he was unable to open it again, just like last time. There was a dent in the necklace with the shape of a nine dragon. After stuffing the Jade Plate inside, the Jade Plate immediately glowed, and after the light faded, the necklace had already changed into the shape of a Jade Plate, and even the chain had turned into jade. Open it, and see if Bei Bei is beautiful again!

"Why are you so slow? "It's rare for me to get so pretty again, yet you make me wait so long …" When Bei Bei saw me, she immediately said a lot of things, but she was really a lot prettier. She had combed her hair into a bun, with a few strands hanging down from her sides.

"Bei Bei, you're beautiful again." I don't care about what Bei Bei says about me, I'm already used to it.

Bei Bei blushed when she heard my praise, it's too cute! I saw that she had lowered her head for a long time without speaking, so I asked her: "Bei Bei, what's my Charm rating?"

Bei Bei immediately raised her head and said: "Your Charm Index is 893,000. Let's not bother about it for now, let me tell you something! After leaving this place, your Charm Index will not be easily obtained. In the future, you will have to use equipment to increase your Charm. At the same time, there will also be a Spiritual Energy Index and a Martial Force Index. "So, I suggest that you finish all the missions here properly, and after you leave, it will be very painful if your charm index doesn't reach a million."

I chuckled and asked: "Bei Bei, can you tell me what kind of missions you have?"

Bei Bei rolled her eyes at me, "If you want to, go explore it yourself. You'd better be more careful and avoid missing the opportunity to complete the mission. Alright, you should rest now.

He didn't understand what Bei Bei meant by "hard work", but he had a dreamy dream of being captured by monsters. He couldn't run or shout, but he was still worried and woke up. It was already bright outside, and he still had to help Shun out of danger when he woke up.

"Advisor, the leader is treating you to a meal." The servant's voice came from outside the door.

"Got it." I quickly washed up and went to the dining room to find the Shears already there. When they saw me, they started eating. The food was still simple.

As he ate, he said to Shun, "In a few days you will fix the granary, and in a few days it will be the rainy season, and you will not be able to pour the grain. It is only you who are so clumsy that I can rest assured."

Shun agreed without thinking, and I cursed him in my heart. After dinner, Shun went to find a ladder to climb up to the granary. I called out to him, "Wait, put this hat on. Don't let the sun get too hot."

"One is enough, why do we need to bring two?" Shun wondered why I gave him two bamboo hats.

I said disapprovingly, "I have it with me. It will definitely be useful."

Shun didn't think too much about it and went to repair the granary after putting on his hat. I found a corner to secretly watch. After a while, the police stealthily went to the granary, removed the ladder, and set it on fire. When the firewood came into contact with the fire, it naturally spread like wildfire, and when Shun saw the fire and couldn't find the ladder on the granary, he panicked and shouted, "Jump down with a hat in one hand."

Shun trusted me, and immediately, holding his hat in both hands, jumped down like a bird with its wings spread out. The bamboo hat swayed in the wind as Shun landed lightly on the ground, unharmed. Seeing the police stomping their feet in fury, I laughed to myself. This granary is his property.

Seeing that I was not surprised at what had happened, Shun said, "Military Advisor, your foresight is amazing. If it weren't for the fact that you asked me to wear two bamboo hats, I would have been seriously injured if I hadn't been burned to death. "But how did you know there would be a fire?"

Of course I couldn't tell him the truth. "It's been hot and dry these days, just a precaution. Who would have thought that there would actually be a fire! "Hurry up and put out the fire or the house will be set on fire."

Shun wanted to ask more, but the spreading fire had no choice but to ask him to lead his family to save the fire. I didn't do anything, how can I save such a big fire? Fortunately, the granary was far from the house and would not be affected, so it was boring to watch them busy so he sneaked out to take a walk.

As soon as I stepped out of the door, I was seized by a man. Hold Arm...
