Three days later, Tang Jiewei Tianchong and Shi Meng officially set off, leaving Wanquan City to the west, heading for Tiandu Mountain all the way.
Because of the purpose of traveling, the speed of the three of them is not fast. They choose to go to the beautiful place, watch the famous mountains and rivers in the country, and also experience the folk customs. It is a joy to play.
Tang Jie seemed to have changed his temper and didn't practice. Every day, he and Wei Tianchong watched flowers and rivers and rivers and mountains, which made Wei Tianchong wonder why this kid suddenly changed his personality.
As everyone knows, in the eyes of Tang Jie, everything in this folk belongs to the way things work. Only by experiencing a good life can you gain insight.
When a cultivator reaches a certain level, he often feels that he has entered a bottleneck. At this time, it is meaningless to practice hardship alone. However, this is at least done by cultivators above Tianxin. It can be said that it is rare for tens of thousands of years to start feeling enlightenment like Tang Jie.
On this day, the three came to Sheung Suwon.
Tang Jie pointed to the front and said: "After Shangshuiyuan is Baizhanling, and further ahead is the State of Li where the Qijiemen is located."
Shimeng said: "When we get there, we won't be under the protection of the Axiomists. We need to pay attention to everything. When I saw it, this student shirt was also changed to avoid trouble."
In Wenxin, the student shirt is their protective umbrella, and no one dares to provoke them easily, but if it is out of the Wenxin ground, the signboard of the moon-washing student is useless and harmful. Although the Qijiemen and the Moonwashing Sect are not dead enemies, they are not good friends. Without disclosing it, I believe that the Qijiemen is still willing to kill a few moonwashing students. Or why even the Xiaoyao Palace was chosen so carefully that it had to be located in the middle of Tiandu Mountain.
Sitting in the carriage, Wei Tianchong shook his head: "It's a bit difficult. Even if we change our clothes, we are not from Li, and we will show up when we speak."
He was not spoiled by sitting in the carriage, but was making a new puppet for himself. This carving is not always easy to do on a horse.
Hearing Wei Tianchong's words, Tang Jie was deeply satisfied. Being able to think of this indicates that Wei Tianchong has indeed improved a lot.
Then he smiled and said, "If it's just an accent, it's not a big problem. Besides, although it was a travel in the past this time, it doesn't mean it will be all right."
"Tang Jie, what do you mean?" Wei Tian was puzzled.
Tang Jie replied: "The materials that can be bought by the Xiyue Academy are after all ordinary. The land of Lebanon is rich in products. If the young master wants to have a good puppet, he can just collect some resources along the way."
Wei Tianchong shook his head repeatedly when he heard it: "That's not the same as trying under the eyelids of Qi Juemen? Without permission, once it is discovered, it is no small thing."
The division of the site is not just for shouting, it is because of resources.
No matter how big your background is, going to the land of another country for profit is tantamount to infringing on the interests of other factions. The so-called ranger all the way, swing the sword to eliminate the demon... Hey, you can eliminate the demon, baby stay!
Therefore, the legendary travels all over the world, seeking opportunities, will not work in this Qixia realm, at least not in reason.
However, Tang Jie didn't care about it. At this moment, he only said, "If a cultivator wants to achieve great achievements, he must go to this world to fight for something. Anyway, we don't publicize this kind of thing, who knows? "
Wei Tian rushed to understand: "Oh... I said, Tang Jie, why did your kid suddenly set off on a whim, dare you to fight for the idea of hunting in another country? Say, Tang Jie, do you also want to get something for yourself? benefit?"
Tang Jie raised the sky and slapped haha, "It's rare to be confused, Master!"
But he acquiesced that he also had his own abacus.
This trip to Tiandu Mountain, he has his own plan, but to complete the plan, he is doomed to be difficult. For this reason, Tang Jie had to find a way to make some preparations in advance, some of the preparations could not be completed in the academy, so he had to put his ideas on the land he passed along the way.
At this moment, Tang Jie only said: "Let's go, what's the matter after passing the border, I will talk about it!"
Speaking of riding the horse and spurring the whip, Shi Meng drove the carriage to follow closely.
One day later, the three of them passed through Baizhanling and came to a wide plain. The sky is blue, the grassland is verdant, and the green grass, blue sky and green fields are picturesque.
At this time, it was winter, and it was supposed to be the season of ice and frost, but I didn't expect it to be spring blossoms here.
This is the famous evergreen grassland in Lebanon.
"I heard that the evergreen grassland is like spring all year round and the scenery is beautiful. Now it seems to be well-deserved." Regretted by the beautiful scenery, Wei Tianchong also got out of the carriage.
"Tang Jie, where should we go next?" Shi Meng asked.
"Go to Shouwangchuan. There is a purple gold ore vein, which is dedicated to supplying the needs of Qijie. Let's see if we can buy some."
Zijin is an excellent material for making puppets, as long as a small piece is incorporated, the quality of the puppets can be greatly improved.
This thing is a controlled resource in Lebanon and cannot be sold without permission. But where there is no light, there will be darkness, where there are policies, there will be countermeasures. In mineral vein production areas, there are always some bold miners who secretly hide some purple gold for sale.
As long as a piece of Zijin is as big as a fist, it can change the fate of a family, enough for too many people to take the risk.
Tang Jie knows that there is an underground market near Shouwangchuan, where it sells some unseen cultivation resources. In addition to the resources collected by poaching, some illegal goods obtained from murder and overstocking are often sold there, especially at the border of the two countries. Once these things are out of the country, it is difficult to track down on the one hand, and on the other hand, the profits are higher, so they are very prosperous.
However, the three of them were new and unfamiliar with their lives. When they were confused, they saw a caravan coming from afar.
There were about twenty carts in the convoy, and each cart was full of cargo. There were also some guards on the left and right, which seemed to be a caravan.
Seeing the three of Tang Jie and the others, there seemed to be someone on the side of the motorcade talking about something. After a while, Sanqi escaped from the caravan and rushed towards Tang Jie and them.
The headed one was a 16 or 7-year-old girl, dressed in the unique costumes of the border people, with more than a dozen braids on the back of her head, and she was also adorned with ornaments. At this moment, I ran until I was close to the prescription before stopping. The girl already cried out, "Hey, are you from Wenxin Country?"
The three of Tang Jie looked at each other and didn't know how to answer for a while. Who knows if there should be a yes now, if the other party will violently kill people in the next moment. They are not afraid to fight, but in a foreign land, it is better to be more cautious.
The girl seemed to see their scruples and laughed: "If you don't answer, it will probably be. Don't be afraid, we Ayi people are the most hospitable. Since meeting is predestined, you can come and have a drink together. Milk wine. Of course, if you come here for business, as long as we have the goods we need, we can also do some exchange with you."
Tang Jie and the others realized that because they were driving the carriage, the other party regarded them as businessmen. When businessmen see caravans on the road, they will often exchange information about what is needed. As long as it is advantageous, business can be done in any way.
Of course this also depends on the situation. Tang Jie and the others are gorgeously dressed and few in number. At a glance, they are not robbers, and the other party took the initiative to get acquainted. If you change the brigade and don't bring any carriage or goods, the opponent will not be so proactive.
"If that's the case, then it's annoying." Tang Jie was also not polite, just to get to know the local customs around here with the other party.
Following the girl, the three of them had seen the convoy manager. It was a middle-aged man and the father of the little Ai girl Cai'er. The Ai people are small in number, but they are widely distributed in the Qixia realm. There are people everywhere. They mostly live on merchants and graze. They are known as a people living on horseback.
After some conversation, Tang Jie realized that the caravan of the Ai tribe had gone to Shouwangchuan to do business. Shouwangchuan is adjacent to Wenxin because of its mineral veins, so the market is quite prosperous. Whether it is Wenxin or Li Guo, there are a lot of business contacts every year, and small merchants in large caravans can be said to be endless.
Since he had to collect some resources he needed, Tang Jiedao did indeed bring some Wenxin specialty products, but as a cultivator, these specialty products do not need to be transported by a motorcade like ordinary people, but directly put them in a mustard bag. inside.
Of course, on the other hand, most of the things that can be put in the car are not valuable.
Sure enough, Tang Jie found that the other party didn't have any rare materials, and didn't care, so he asked casually about the local customs. The Ayi people traveled from the south to the north. Communicating with them has greatly benefited the three fledgling students.
Just walking and talking, I saw a lot of teams along the way. After asking, I realized that it turned out that they came at the right time, and now it is time to watch the big city in Sichuan.
The so-called big market is the annual big market in Shouwangchuan. At this time of the year, caravans from all over the world will trade here, forming a year-long peak in trading.
As a result, the size of the team became bigger and bigger. It didn't take long for the team to change from one to four, uniting hundreds of people together. The momentum was also quite big, and almost all of them were from the Ayi ethnic group.
According to Cai'er, this is also the habit of the Ayi people, so that they can take care of each other, and if they encounter culprits, they can resist together.
At dusk the next day, they came to a lake.
The lake is clear and the grass is faint. On the top of the mountain in the distance, there is white snow accumulating, and it looks like two sisters in spring and winter are living next to each other.
"This is Xiema Lake, and Shouwangchuan is after Xiema Lake. Let's rest here first, and we will be able to catch the market tomorrow." Cai'er said to Tang Jie with great interest.
Perhaps it was because of the long-term business trips with her parents, it was rare to have peers from other villages as the company, and Tang Jie and the others came from a school, humble and polite, the little girl was very happy to deal with Tang Jie and them.
That day and night, the brigade was stationed on the shore of Xiema Lake, and the Ai people set up a bonfire to cook and cook. After dinner, they sang and danced around the bonfire by the lake, and the loud singing was spread all over the fields, beautiful and charming.
While singing and dancing, some entertainment programs are indispensable.
Twenty rides emerged from the crowd, men and women, talking and laughing to each other, and came to a drawn white line.
Then after hearing an order, these twenty riders ran out together, and every female rider was followed by a male rider. The male riders followed in the back and kept talking, but the female riders ignored them and just used their horses to raise their whip. After rushing to the designated direction, the riders rode their horses back and forth. This time it was the female rider's turn to chase the male rider, but they all raised their whips and beat each other, while the male riders rode their horses and ran wildly, but they retaliated. They didn't dare, and the crowd watching nearby shouted for good.
