Wu Dongfang was surprised, and the three elders of the Jin clan were even more surprised. Although the Jin clan had no written records, they had oral traditions, and successive White Tiger Celestial Masters had ascended to the throne. Holy witches from the other four clans had never come. Except for the Tu clan whose attitude was unclear this time, the others All the holy witches from the three tribes were present.
It is certainly a honor for them all to come to the Jin tribe, but what is the purpose of their coming? This is what Wu Dongfang and the three elders of the Jin tribe are worried about. Except that the Wood tribe should be well-intentioned, the real motivation of the Water and Fire tribes coming to watch the ceremony is not clear.
The four of them expressed their opinions and discussed in the main hall. It was not until midnight that the three elders of the Jin clan left. Wu Dongfang returned to the backyard to prepare for a rest.
"What do Dad and the others think?" Ming Yue held a towel and watched Wu Dongfang wash up.
"They are more worried, afraid of some conspiracy, but I am more optimistic. Both the Water Tribe and the Fire Tribe are bordering us. As my new official takes office, they should come here just to build a good neighborly relationship with us. I have helped the Wood Tribe, and the Wood Tribe It's reasonable to come over and say congratulations." Wu Dongfang washed his face several times and took the towel to wipe his face.
"If it's just for congratulations, they can definitely send gifts. There's no need to be there in person." Ming Yue was worried.
"It's useless to worry about this now, and I don't rule out that they have other purposes for coming here, but I think it's more likely that they will test and observe. To say the least, even if they are really malicious, I'm not afraid." Wu Dongfang said while brushing his teeth.
Ming Yue didn't answer, just sighed.
"People will always have troubles when they are alive. Just deal with them when you encounter them." Wu Dongfang put down the water glass and walked to the bed, "Don't think about it, just go to sleep."
Ming Yue had something on her mind and tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Wu Dongfang didn't care about that. He didn't practice Qi after going to bed and fell asleep.
When he got up in the morning, he taught Ming Yue's text as usual. After the enthronement ceremony, he would go into retreat. He couldn't be a teacher, so he had to teach a teacher.
Ming Yue is very smart, but she is not as fast as Fei Mu in learning words. Of course there are reasons for the difference in thinking between men and women, but it must also be admitted that Ming Yue is not as understanding as Fei Mu. Fei Mu is the Qinglong Celestial Master of the Wood Clan and can be the Qinglong Celestial Master. Definitely very knowledgeable.
After assigning homework to Ming Yue, Wu Dongfang was free. He didn't want to stay in the Tianshi Mansion for fear that the three elders of the Jin clan would come to him for a meeting. These three old guys had learned from the past and no longer dared to hide the news, but They went to the other extreme, coming to ask for instructions on everything, reporting on everything, and holding meetings to study and study every now and then. The meetings lasted for several hours, and they scared him.
"It may take a few days for me to go out." Wu Dongfang said to Mingyue.
"The enthronement ceremony is in nine days. Where are you going?" Ming Yue asked.
"Our current grain yield is too low. I will go out to find some high-yielding grain for the Jin people." Wu Dongfang brought his bow and arrow. The grains at this time mainly included millet, broomcorn millet, and millet. These are similar to modern grains. Millet is almost the same. In addition to these, there are also beans, wheat, and rice. The Jin tribe’s grains are mainly millet and beans. Wheat and rice cannot be grown here due to climate and geographical restrictions.
"Are you going to the north?" Ming Yue was uneasy.
"No, I'll walk around casually." Wu Dongfang took the staff and walked out.
"How many days can you come back?" Ming Yue followed.
"Three to five days, no more than five days at most." Wu Dongfang said.
After leaving the door, he glanced at the east courtyard. He wanted to call Wang Ye and Fan Tong, but he thought better of it. He had to go out to do business, and it might not be convenient to take them with him.
"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going?" The prince rushed out from the east courtyard, followed by Fan Tong.
"Going out for a walk, are you going?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Go." The prince nodded repeatedly. Living a comfortable life for too long would become boring.
"What are you looking at? You can't go, go back." The prince waved his hand at the rice bucket, which was staring at it.
Fantong seemed to understand what the prince said, and turned to look at Wu Dongfang. Wu Dongfang knelt down and stroked Fantong's head, "I'm going to fight, but you're still young, so you can't go."
Fan Tong bared his teeth and growled in a low voice, meaning that I can also fight.
"Who can you beat now?" Wu Dongfang laughed.
"Go back, we will bring you something sweet." The prince said.
Fan Tong wrinkled his nose in displeasure, and the prince turned to wink at Wu Dongfang. Wu Dongfang condensed the staff into a copper plate, jumped up with the prince in his hand, and circulated his spiritual energy to the west. Fan Tong looked gloating below. Watched the two of them leave.
"Okay, okay, put me down quickly, he can't see me." Wang Ye, who was being pinched by the collar, shouted loudly. He knew that Wu Dongfang grabbed his neck just to show off.
Wu Dongfang hugged the prince and sat down. The wind was strong in the sky. If he didn't hug the prince, he would be blown away by the wind.
"Are you going to Kunlun Mountain?" the prince asked.
"No, it's autumn now, the season when food is ripe. I want to go outside the Central Plains to find some food seeds and bring them back." Wu Dongfang said.
"What place is outside the Central Plains?" the prince asked doubtfully.
"You don't understand even after I tell you." Wu Dongfang said casually.
"Is there anyone outside the Central Plains?" the prince asked again.
"There must be people, but there may not be people where we go." Wu Dongfang shook his head. If he was in the Qin and Han Dynasties, he would have given the prince a positive answer, but now we are in the Xia Dynasty, which is much older than the Qin and Han Dynasties. He also I don’t know if anyone lives in the west side now.
"Besides Jiuzhou and the Four Clans, are there others outside?" The prince is a China expert, but he has obviously never been abroad.
"Yes, as far as I know there are at least three foreign countries similar to the Xia Dynasty." Wu Dongfang used a word that the prince could understand.
"Are you from those foreign countries?" The prince suddenly realized that he was wrong.
"No." Wu Dongfang shook his head. He could not explain the four ancient civilizations to the prince, nor could he explain time travel to it.
"What do those foreigners look like?" the prince asked.
"It's similar to us, but there are differences. Remember the birdman we saw in the Fire Tribe last time? She looks similar to her." Wu Dongfang said.
"It also has wings?" the prince asked.
"No," Wu Dongfang shook his head, "That birdman should be a foreign god or a practitioner, similar to the wizards of our Xia Dynasty."
The prince was a little confused and tilted his head to collect his thoughts.
Wu Dongfang didn't explain much. Some things need to be understood and accepted slowly. In addition to looking for food seeds, he also had a potential purpose for going out this time. He wanted to see if there were gods in foreign countries
This problem has always troubled him. He is a modern man and knows that the earth is round. He also knows that there are many other countries and other races on the earth. He cannot deliberately forget these just because he returned to the Xia Dynasty and lead to a barbaric period. It seems that there are only people from the Xia Dynasty in the world. That is not objective. He is deliberately pretending to be blind. He does not want to pretend to be blind. He wants to use an objective attitude to determine whether there are gods in foreign countries. If so, do they have any intersection with the gods of the Xia Dynasty? Can foreign gods have any influence on the people of Xia Dynasty
It was less than nine o'clock when he set off. In order to save his spiritual energy, Wu Dongfang didn't rush on the road very fast. When he left the Jin clan's boundary, he began to lower his altitude and observed the plants below while walking.
"This is too awkward. Please give me a chair." The prince shouted.
"Would you like to change a bed for you?" Wu Dongfang glanced at the prince.
"That's okay." The prince smiled.
Naturally, Wu Dongfang would not change a bed for it. The wizard's control over metal has certain limits and cannot stretch the metal infinitely. In addition, when the object flies, it needs Qi to flow out, so it can only stand or sit cross-legged, or lie down. Lying down is definitely not possible, at least not now.
He didn't change the prince's bed, but grew four copper rings from the copper plate and fixed the prince on the copper plate.
"Damn, why do I feel like I'm shackled again?" the prince cursed.
Wu Dongfang smiled and said nothing. Although the prince was tight-lipped, he would still reveal some details about himself unintentionally after getting along for a long time. One word after another showed that this guy had been handcuffed before.
"By the way, the holy witches from the other three tribes will come to attend my ascension ceremony. What do you think?" Wu Dongfang asked. The journey to the west was not far at this time, and he did not think that he could find other crops here that were different from the crops of the Jin tribe.
The prince bared his teeth and said, "Do you want to hear the truth?"
"I want to hear lies." Wu Dongfang said.
The prince didn't succeed, and felt very boring. He curled his lips and said nothing.
"Say it." Wu Dongfang urged.
"What are you talking about?" The prince said again.
"The three elders of the Jin clan are worried that there is a conspiracy behind this matter. I am also a little worried. They all came. This is too embarrassing for me." Wu Dongfang said.
"You were talking about this in the middle of the night last night?" The prince curled his lips.
Wu Dongfang nodded.
"Why bother thinking about this? You killed eleven heavenly masters of the Tu tribe. When they came to congratulate you, you clearly told the Tu tribe that they were very dissatisfied with the Tu tribe." The prince said.
"It makes sense." Wu Dongfang nodded repeatedly. The prince's perspective on the problem was indeed different from theirs.
The prince said with a smile on his face, "Also, they may instigate you to rebel when they come here this time."
"Why are you teasing me? Which of their clans is not more powerful than the Jin clan?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"You're stupid. You stood out. If you lose, you will be unlucky. They will benefit from it. Do you think the Tu tribe doesn't hate you because you killed so many heavenly masters from the Tu tribe? People hate you so much that they don't move because they are afraid of dealing with you. When the other three tribes lost control," the prince said.
"I found out why I am getting more and more stupid." Wu Dongfang shook his head and smiled.
"It's not that you are getting stupider, but you are getting deeper and deeper. You regard the Jin tribe as your own. I reminded you from the beginning, don't regard the Jin tribe as yours, otherwise the Tu tribe will threaten you sooner or later with the Jin tribe." The prince said.
"The authorities are confused, but those onlookers know clearly." Wu Dongfang nodded again.
"That's a good thing to say. As soon as I saw the excitement, I didn't want to discuss matters with them because I was afraid that I would get caught in it," the prince said.
"This sentence was not said by me, but by others." Wu Dongfang shook his head and said.
"Look, what's that yellow thing?" The prince pointed his mouth toward the southwest.
"It's a banana." Wu Dongfang looked up and saw that there were no bananas in the Jin tribe. This was the first time he saw a banana tree.
The circulating spiritual energy drove the copper plate closer to the banana forest. Once the distance was close, Wu Dongfang realized that he had seen it wrong. This was not a banana, but a plantain.
Plantains are also on the diet of soldiers for survival in the wild. They are edible and sweet, but they should not be eaten in large quantities. If you eat too much, you will suffer from diarrhea. This thing obviously cannot be used as military food or rations.
After eating a few, they picked a piece and put it into the Qiankun bag, and the two headed west again...
