Wu Dongfang thought quickly in his mind, to fight or not to fight
The result of thinking is that we can't fight. These people are well dressed and don't look like ordinary gangsters. I don't know what kind of background they have.
"I just entered the city this morning and was not in the city last night." Wu Dongfang said loudly.
"You said you're not in the city if you're not in the city?" One of them pushed him provocatively.
"Who are you?!" Wu Dongfang pretended to be reckless and grabbed the handle of the waist knife fiercely.
"You're blind, this is the second master of Mali Zheng." A follower pointed at the man who just threw the bowl and said to him.
Wu Dongfang didn't know anything about Ma Li Zheng Niu Xiu, but he immediately pretended to be stunned and frightened, let go of his hand, lowered his head, frightened and at a loss.
Seeing that his name scared Wu Dongfang, the man who threw the bowl took advantage of it and poked Wu Dongfang's chest arrogantly, "If you see me next time, take a detour, do you hear me?"
"Oh, oh." Wu Dongfang lowered his head, pretending to be scared.
A group of people were very proud to see Wu Dongfang surrender, and went out to the south.
Seeing everyone leaving, Wu Dongfang took a deep breath and yelled, "Fuck you," and beat the opponent down or even kill him. It seemed happy, but in fact it was very stupid. Soldiers are not reckless. They should be beaten only if they deserve it. If not, they should be beaten. I will definitely not fight.
After the other party walked away, Wu Dongfang paid the bill and went out. Being bullied was indeed not a pleasant thing, but restraining his emotions made him very happy, which was enough to offset the unpleasantness of being bullied.
It was pleasant to buy salt, and it was even more pleasant to find an inn and lie on the warm earthen bed. If I had taken action before, I would be on the way to escape now.
This is the only inn in the city. Since it is close to the river and there are few passers-by, he is the only one on the huge earthen bed of the inn. He has not gotten a good rest before, so he wants to have a good sleep this time.
He slept from the afternoon until the early morning of the next day without anyone disturbing him. When he woke up, he felt refreshed and exhausted.
At this time, there were already early risers in the city. Wu Dongfang brought his things and paid for the room with a pheasant. He left the inn and wandered on the streets. Most of the buildings in the city were dilapidated. Black, white and gray were the main colors of the city. Regardless of The architecture, the clothes of pedestrians, and the utensils used all have very few bright colors, giving people the feeling of watching black and white TV.
There is a morning market in the east of the city, which is not large in scale and mainly sells three types of commodities: slaves, mountain goods, and livestock.
There are the most slaves. These slaves are not as good as the slaves on the island. The slaves on the island are much younger and stronger. These slaves are mainly old, weak, sick and disabled. They sit in the open space, with ragged clothes and empty eyes. These slaves are very cheap. A sheep can be exchanged for one.
For things that he couldn't change, the only thing Wu Dongfang could do was sigh. If he hadn't insisted on taking the little mute on the road last time, Fei Mu would not have died. Everyone wants to do what they want to do, but be yourself There is a prerequisite for doing what you want to do, and that is having enough ability. Doing what you want to do without enough ability will not only kill yourself, but may also harm others.
He wishes he could free all these slaves, but he doesn’t have that much ability. When he has enough ability, he will never allow slaves to exist. This phenomenon is the annihilation of human nature and a stain on civilization. Instead of letting it go. People are trying every possible means to cover up this disgraceful history, so it would be better to abolish it directly from the source.
There are people selling cattle, sheep, pigs and horses here. Wu Dongfang wanted to exchange the jade toad for the horse, but the farmer who sold the horse refused to exchange. The exchange at this time was very blind. If the people were not willing, they could also exchange valuable things. Nothing cheap.
Just when he was about to leave, an animal that looked like a donkey caught his attention. This animal had a sharp long horn on its head and was more than 20 centimeters long. It was shaped like a donkey, with a belly and four hooves. It is white, the mouth is a bit like the mouth of an old man who has lost all his teeth, the nose is like a cow's nose, and the tail is like a cow's tail.
He had never seen this kind of animal before, so he went up to look at it out of curiosity.
"Want to buy a horse?" asked the owner.
"How many shellfish?" Wu Dongfang asked. People here call shellfish shells.
"Five." said the owner.
Wu Dongfang didn't think this thing looked like a horse. Originally, he was just curious and didn't want to buy it. After asking the price, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Three." said the owner.
Wu Dongfang shook his head. He understood one more thing. At this time, there was also a phenomenon of bargaining, not a fixed price.
"One." The cargo owner said.
Wu Dongfang turned around and came back and gave the other person a shell. Regardless of whether the thing was a horse or not, even a donkey was worth more than a shell.
The other party handed him the reins, and Wu Dongfang led him eastward. After taking a few steps, he felt something was wrong, and why everyone around him was laughing.
After leaving the market, everyone who saw him on the street laughed.
"Hello, old man, what is this?" Wu Dongfang stopped an old man with a kind face.
"You don't know him?" The old man couldn't stop laughing.
Wu Dongfang shook his head. He thought this thing was a rare animal, but it looked like it was not very rare. Everyone in the city knew it, but he didn't.
"This is a poor horse." said the old man.
"Thank you, old man." Wu Dongfang thanked him. Although he didn't know what a horse was, he knew that what he bought was a horse.
"This thing can't be ridden, eaten, driven, or pulled. It's of no use. By the way, don't take off its bridle." The old man left with a smile.
Wu Dongfang didn't know why, so he led his horse towards the east city gate. When he arrived at the city gate, the soldiers guarding the gate also laughed, which made him hairy. Now everyone in the city knew him, which was not conducive to him hiding his whereabouts.
After leaving the city, he couldn't wait to take off the bridle. As soon as the bridle was removed, the pony curled up its lips and made a strange sound, a drawl, a bit like a donkey's bray.
He didn't hear the first sound clearly, but when the horse called for the second time, he finally heard it clearly, "Son."
Wu Dongfang frowned and looked at it. This guy curled his lips like an old man smiling, which was really scary.
After barking twice, the bully horse stopped barking. Wu Dongfang led it away. Not far away, the bully horse barked again, "Son."
Upon hearing this, Wu Dongfang hurriedly threw away the reins, "Let's go, you are free."
Bo Ma did not run away immediately, but raised his neck and said "Son" again.
Wu Dongfang swung his long bow and pointed it at its head, "Get out!"
The bully horse ran away in pain. Wu Dongfang took a deep breath to calm down his anger. How could there be such a weird animal at this time? He finally understood why those people just smiled at him. In their eyes, he was just a man who paid for his father. Fool.
After calming down, he speeded up. Many people saw that he had bought such a piece of trash. If anyone knew about this, they would immediately guess that it was done by an outsider who had never seen the world. , and then inquire about his physical appearance and appearance, and you can immediately determine his identity. This matter is extremely detrimental to him.
This area is a plain area. There are no high mountains and it is mostly flat land. However, the flat land is not necessarily all fields. Most of the area is still woods.
If his opponents were all ordinary people, he was sure that no one would be able to catch him in this environment, but the opponent was a wizard who could fly into the sky and escape from the earth. He walked in fear and returned to the woods not far away. Go east in the woods.
Around 12 o'clock at noon, there were forked roads. One road continued to the east and the other to the south. He walked south and roosted on a big tree in the woods at night. He waited until dawn and continued walking south. After walking for dozens of miles, I found an abandoned small temple on the side of the road. There was a clay statue in the small temple, which had long been mutilated and its face could not be seen clearly. People at this time believed in animism, and any object would be regarded as a god.
A large amount of firewood was found and a fire was lit in the temple. Clear a clean area in the corner, large enough for him to lie down. After lying down, tossing and rubbing will leave traces of lying down. Finally, leave the remains of the dough.
After the fire was extinguished, he left the ruined temple. What he did before was all to mislead the other party. If the previous incident about the black horse was leaked, the Tu wizards would come immediately, and they would pay special attention to places where they could rest. He was here The purpose of leaving traces is to make the other party think that he went south.
It is unlikely that the other party will get the news, it is unlikely that they will pursue him, and it is even less likely that he will find this ruined temple. It may not be useful for him to do this, but if it is useful, it will be a life-saving tool.
After leaving the ruined temple, Wu Dongfang walked north for a few miles, then entered the woods and crossed the road diagonally to the east. Fei Mu once said that if he wanted to reach the Mu Clan, it would take him a month even if he walked on the main road. In half a month to twenty days, we should be able to reach the Mu Clan.
In the evening, rain clouds appeared in the sky. He couldn't find a place to stay, so he climbed up a three-arm-thick tree, cut off some branches, made a simple cover on the branch, and hid under the cover.
He had previously found traces of tigers in the woods, which was why he did not dare to rest on the ground.
It rained after dark, and the rain got heavier and heavier, and then there was lightning and thunder. For some reason, lightning and thunder were always concentrated in the area where he was.
With a harsh clicking sound, a bolt of lightning hit a big tree next to him, and the huge tree crown was cut off directly by the lightning. Wu Dongfang was secretly afraid that it was very dangerous to stay in a tree on a rainy day, so he had better find another place.
Just when he went to the ground, another flash of lightning appeared in the sky. With the light of the lightning, he was horrified to find a thick red strange python entangled under the big tree where he was...
