The last 2000 yuan

That night, all the people, dogs and luggage brought all year round entered Hongshu Village.

Originally, outsiders were not allowed to follow the road that the vehicles came in, but there were too many things on the vehicles all the year round, and the villagers were afraid of losing them, and they felt that if the master magician wanted to murder them, he didn't need to know the road to do so. Come in and kill them all, let the perennial people drive in with them in the car.

He hadn't accepted the village chief's invitation all the year round, and slept in the carriage at night with the excuse that it was already late.In the evening, he and his slaves also ate the dry food they brought with them.

Tie Sanniang wanted to treat Niannian and his party well, but apart from the bag of gifts that Niannian gave her, she couldn't even get enough rations for one meal for the whole family.

The village chief saw the luxury of the carriage up close, and he couldn't tell if he invited him to live in his house all year round. The cleanest room in his house was not as clean as the carriages of mule carts loaded with goods.

The slaves also lived in the car.

Sister Tie lived in her mother's house and helped her take care of her third brother who hadn't woken up yet.

Tie Buping and Tie Mei also wanted to help, but were rushed back to the car by Tie Sanniang and Tie Jie.

Tie Mei found the female slave who usually slept with her, and got into the mule cart to rest.

Tie Buping took a cold shower and was going to the carriage where he usually sleeps, but turned a corner temporarily and knocked on the door of the carriage.

Cang Huang glanced at him, then lay down on the ground again.

"Come in." Perennial has just finished rinsing and is resting with his eyes closed. He will only rest for a while, and will enter the teaching and experience room to learn magic and medicine later.

The carriage door opened silently.

Tie Buping took off his shoes, got into the car, closed the door, and stared at Nian Nian.

Feeling something was wrong all the year round, I raised my eyelids and saw those shining black eyes.

The perennial drowsiness completely disappeared, and I sat up straight: "What's the matter?"

"Teach me magic." The boy opened his mouth and said.

Haha all the year round, he thought...cough!

"Magic, um, I told you this afternoon, do you understand?" Perennial asked with a serious face.

Tie Buping shook his head very simply, "I don't understand, I can't feel the magic power, and I can't absorb it."

Perennial tapped his fingers on his knees, "Just because you can't absorb magic power doesn't mean you can't use power. Have you tried to release the dead energy in your body?"

Tie Buping shook his head again, "But I seem to have absorbed some more."

Tie Buping told him about seeing the third brother and absorbing the black energy lingering around his body.

"And I don't know if it's my illusion. I feel that I have absorbed the black energy from my brother, and his condition looks a little better."

"Oh? If that's the case, that's a great thing!" All the year round, he said, "So, even if a person is not dead, as long as he has death energy in him, you can absorb it? Maybe you can not only absorb death energy , maybe you can absorb some negative energy. But..."

"But what?" Tie Buping asked anxiously.

Perennial pondered for a moment, and said: "Whether it is dead energy or resentment or anything else, those are negative energies, and you can absorb them, but it doesn't mean you can digest them. At least before you continue to absorb and use those negative energies, we have to find someone who can help you. You filter... at least in a way that you can safely digest. We have to make the energy work for us, not let it control us."

Tie Buping snorted softly: "You mean those negative energies will affect my sanity?"

Perennial: "Very likely."

Tie Buping stopped talking, he yearned and yearned for great power, but if his mind was controlled, he would rather...he still wanted power.

"Can you help me, Master."

Laughing all the year round, "This is the first time you call me that. I thought you were honest, but in fact you are the most dishonest."

Tie Buping showed doubts again, "You really sound like my grandpa. You don't have a real face, do you? Is your real face not the appearance of this young and handsome boy at all, but a hair and teeth that are about to fall out?" , An old man with wrinkled skin on his face?"

I have been so angry with this kid all year round, I went forward and clamped his head and rubbed it.

Tie Buping struggled, he opened his mouth and bit.

Pinching his cheeks all the year round, laughing angrily: "Are you a dog?"

Tie Buping grabbed Niannian's arm, but he didn't use too much force. He knew that Niannian was just playing around with him, and he didn't really intend to bite him.

Looking at the young man's dark eyes all the year round, those eyes seemed to be slightly bent.One second, two seconds... He suddenly understood that the boy was teasing him just now, not really saying that he was like a grandfather, and the boy was holding back his laughter.

The iron is uneven and his teeth are chattering, making a threatening appearance.

Chang Nian suddenly wanted to pinch the boy's face, but before he reached out, he quickly let go of the boy, returned to his original position and sat down.

Tie Buping felt that this master was very strange, at one moment he looked like a young man who would fight with him, and at another moment he looked like an old-fashioned old man.

Ignoring the weirdness and discomfort all the year round, he quickly said: "If the method of absorbing and releasing magic power doesn't work for you, maybe you need to try another way. I heard that in addition to magic, there is also an energy system profession in this world. They use It’s a technique called inner qi.”

This is common sense from Matsuba's memory.When he was thinking about how to solve the problem of uneven iron, relevant information about the warrior system and the name of the exercises they used came to his mind.

Tie Buping said expectantly: "Then do you know how to cultivate inner qi?"

Shaking his head all the year round, "I don't know, but we can find someone to learn from. In two days, I plan to go to Adventure City. Then you can go with me. Let's find someone to find out if there is anyone who can teach soldiers how to cultivate .”

Most of the hope in Tie Buping's eyes disappeared, and he said a little dejectedly: "I'm a vegetable, they won't teach me."

Perennial: "Stupid, if you don't tell me, who knows that you want to learn? Besides, money can make ghosts turn the clock. We don't want too many advanced exercises at the beginning. The basic exercises must not be difficult to buy. Our purpose is to let you Try to see if you can use this technique, and if you are sure you can use it, use a more advanced technique, and we will figure out a way later."

Tie Buping licked his lips, and said sincerely: "My mother is right, you are a very rare and good master."

Perennial: "...then do you want to sleep in?"

Tie Buping didn't understand such an elegant word, "What are you serving?"

I want to slap myself all the year round, "I'm asking if you're hungry. I have the sweet cake I bought in town last time. Do you want to eat it?"

Tie Buping quickly tossed the word "serving bed" out of his mind, and replied without hesitation: "Eat!"

Perennial took out the remaining sweet cakes from the space belt, and originally wanted to stuff them all to the boy, but seeing the boy's rare child-like greed, he put the sweet cakes on a plate and handed them to him.

As expected, Tie Buping only took one piece, and after saying thank you, he ran away.He wants to take it to his mother to eat.

Seeing him refusing to stay and eat all the year round was a bit disappointing.He wanted to smoke himself again!Immediately, he stuffed the whole plate to the young man, "Take it and eat it, I don't like sweet things."

He really doesn't like the taste of this dark sweet cake, it's weird.But others like it, like it a lot.

Tie BuPing believed it, and happily ran away with the plate.

A sentence inexplicably popped up in my mind all the year round: I lost my wife and lost my army...

Rule Elf: "I just watch, I don't say anything."

His face was full of black lines all the year round: "You have already said it, I heard it."

Rule Elf: "Oh."

All the year round, I only think that one and two are irritating masters.It's also thanks to his self-cultivation... Keep the account first, there will always be a chance to get it back later!

The next day, Niannian invited the Tie family, the village chief's family, and several village elders and young adults to have dinner together.

Everyone was polite for a long time, but Tie Buping greeted them, so they dared to sit in front of Nian Nian.

I was afraid of scaring them all the year round, so I didn't do it myself, so Sister Tie and Chef Tiemei cooked this meal.

During the meal, the people of Hongshu Village really experienced the great benefits of anti-mosquito ointment, iron pot, simple iron stove, salt and various spices.The young and strong were thick-skinned, and they shared the rest of the soup with each other, and rushed to wash the pot... This made people wonder whether they planned to lick the bottom of the pot secretly.

I have also asked about the special products in Hongshu Village all the year round.

The anxious village chief asked the villagers to send things over when he introduced them, so that they could have a look at them all year round.

There are three specialties in Mangrove Village, mangrove rice, red sand crocodile skin and red cabbage.

Mangrove rice is the fruit of those mangrove trees that grow in swamps. The fruit is about the size of a fist. When the peel is peeled off, it is filled with seeds that look like rice grains.These red seeds are mangrove rice, which is also a common food for people in Hongshu village.

Mangrove rice tastes very hard when eaten raw. When cooked, it will expand into a small ball the size of a fingernail. It tastes soft and elastic, and it is very hungry after eating.

Red cabbage is a kind of wild vegetable that only grows in the soil near this swamp.

People in Hongshu Village lived in the mangrove forest for many years, and gradually cultivated this wild vegetable into a domestic vegetable. It can be grown twice a year, and the yield is average. The advantage is that it tastes sweet.Red cabbage is the favorite thing outsiders exchange with mangroves.

I have tasted mangrove rice and red cabbage all year round, and feel that these two crops are promising, but I don’t know if they can expand their cultivation. If not, can they be refined and valuable?

In addition, the red sand crocodile skin is bright red overall and has a sandy texture to the touch, but it is very soft on the inside and has a relatively tough texture. It is especially suitable for women's leather armor and leather bags, and is also a very popular leather product.

I have asked the villagers all the year round, and I know that the red sand crocodile, mangrove rice, and red cabbage are all special products of the mangrove forest, at least in this area of ​​the Great Lakes, there are no other places.

I ask the villagers what they want to change all the year round.He brought a lot of things, mostly daily necessities and condiments.He heard Tie Buping describe the appearance of Tiejia Village, and he prepared all the things that the local people lacked and needed daily.

After discussing with the village elders, the village head expressed that he wanted to exchange a large amount of salt, some wheat flour, soybeans, and clay pots. In the final stage, Ai Ai said that if possible, he would also like to exchange some medicine powder that was used to treat the third brother Tie all year round.

"You don't want iron pots and cloth?" Seeing that the villagers dared not mention iron pots and cloth all the year round, they took the initiative to mention them.

It's also interesting to say that he walked all the way from Luoxia Village, and he didn't see anyone using iron pots. People here seem to still use clay pots and pots for cooking.The way they cook is also extremely simple, basically roasting and boiling.

The iron pot was still a small town that he passed by. Lu Hu introduced that the blacksmith here was very skilled. He went to describe the appearance of the iron pot to the blacksmith and asked him to make a dozen of them.

The same goes for tin stoves.

The village chief smiled wryly: "Of course we want it, but we can't afford it. It's the things we propose to exchange now, and we don't know if we have prepared enough."

The village chief watched Chang Nian anxiously, afraid that he would charge a high price.

"What was the price you used to exchange things with outsiders, and what is the price now." I have given the village chief a reassurance all year round.

The village head was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "We used to exchange one basket of mangrove rice for one bag of salt at the market, five baskets of red vegetables for one bag, and one red sand crocodile skin for three bags of salt."

After that, I have seen how big a basket is and how small a bag is all year round.
