Finally, the two of them approached a small town. No matter what form the people here were in, communication was much easier than in those small villages. It was no longer impossible to know everything.
At least with some of that kind of crystal, Gong Yun decided to stay here for a day or two to inquire about the situation. Otherwise, walking around all the time was really not an option. They were not here to travel.
I found a small, simple hotel, a bit like a B&B with only a dozen or so rooms, the kind where you go directly into the courtyard. The hotel was run by a guy with the head of a bear and the body of a human body.
After entering the room, Feng Xiao took out the two remaining crystal stones and placed them on the table. He looked worried. After spending them, he had nothing left to exchange for money.
Gong Yun walked carelessly and didn't care about anything. She couldn't do it. Now she was considered a housekeeper. There was still a long way to go. What could she do without money? They are here to understand the situation, because without money they cannot communicate with others.
Don't worry about those two things. The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. There are always more solutions than difficulties. Gong Yun sat down at the table and picked up a crystal stone and looked at it. What on earth was this? He was sure that this was definitely not a diamond. If you said it was glass, it wouldn't be possible because it was opaque. If you were to say it was a crystal of something, the material was not a colloidal structure.
Sir, your food is here. The door was knocked lightly a few times and a voice came in.
Come in, you're welcome. Feng Xiao put away the two crystal stones and responded.
The door was pushed open, and a bear-headed woman walked in carrying a tray.
Guest officer? Gong Yun was surprised and nodded to the hostess to express his gratitude. This was another illogical place. This title was a bit strange.
The owner put a few plates of vegetables and rice on the table and said apologetically: "You two are not good at cooking, please bear with me."
Sister, can I not ask? Is there any way to make money here? We were just walking around and we didn’t have much money. Feng Xiao asked.
I could see it as soon as you walked in. You are wandering warriors. If you want to make money, other jobs are obviously not suitable for you. But you came at the right time. The town guard has been recruiting people for the past two days, specifically looking for wandering warriors like you. Responsible for transporting a batch of things to the capital. The female shopkeeper responded immediately.
Escort something? Is there anyone else snatching things? Feng Xiao asked strangely.
Haha... I guess you two haven't been robbed before, right? That's because you yourself are wandering warriors, and judging from the high level of this big brother, naturally no one will snatch your things. You haven't robbed anyone else's things? But that's right, if you rob it, you won't be out of money. The shopkeeper laughed.
Can you rob here? No one cares? Gong Yun was even curious.
This is allowed by law. You can rob, but you cannot rob things in the village. You can rob anything as long as you leave the village. After you rob it, you can take it to any village or town and sell it. After speaking, the shopkeeper turned around and went out.
Gong Yun and Feng Xiao stared at each other. Is it allowed by law to snatch things? What kind of management system is this? Also, the two of them have been acting stupidly together for so long, living a life of trying to beat a hero for a penny?
What system is this? Feng Xiao was the first to say it in surprise.
Gong Yun shook his head. He didn't understand what the brain of the supreme controller here looked like. Do you agree that robbery is legal and is included in the law? What the hell is this?
However, relying on robbery to obtain finances is legal, but it is definitely not without restrictions. It is not suitable for them. He is also the one in control. Naturally, he knows that all laws must be formulated with certain conditions. No matter what kind of system, it will ultimately serve only It can be a person in power. It is impossible for a person in power to formulate a legal system that harms his own interests. Otherwise, who would be the person in charge?
I think we'd better not do this kind of thing, there must be something wrong with it. Feng Xiao persuaded. She knew Gong Yun's style very well. Why would she work for others if she could rely on robbery? The master is the head of mankind! How is it possible for him to work for someone else?
But this time he was really wrong. Gong Yun was indeed used to being a head of state and had the ability to obtain money through robbery, but he also had his own moral code. As the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you? How could he steal other people's things for no reason? What's more, these stones have no use at all.
Of course, when I apply for a job, I have to go to the capital anyway, and I can learn a lot of information along the way. Gong Yun responded readily.
real! Great, I'll go too. Feng Xiao happily picked up the bowls and chopsticks.
After eating, the two of them asked the shopkeeper for the address where the mayor was recruiting people, and walked towards the town government.
There were quite a few people queuing up outside the town government. At a glance, there were more than 200 people, but according to the sign on the recruitment board, only four people were recruited.
Gong Yun secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, four people were needed. If only two people were needed, then there would be no difference between him and Feng Xiao traveling by themselves. Why would there be any need to wade into this muddy water? I just don’t know what the selection mechanism is and what the selection criteria are.
Now you just need to queue up and get a number to get in. As for what other procedures are inside, I don't know yet, and Gong Yun will not use his mental energy to explore such meaningless things.
It didn't take much, and a few more people came behind him and Feng Xiao. Gong Yun looked at the queue waiting to receive the queue number and felt that he and Feng Xiao had a high chance, because it was clear from the smell of these people that they did not go out often.
To be honest, Gong Yun hasn't figured it out yet. Since robbery is allowed by law, why should he recruit escorts? Wouldn't it be enough to just pull it out and let others snatch it away?
Soon the two people took two numbers and approached the courtyard of the town government. There was an arch in the shape of a round arch in the courtyard. It was just an arch, because there were no walls or fences on both sides of the arch. There is a bare archway, and the people in front are walking through it.
There is a cloud-like thing next to it, showing something.
Gong Yun kept looking at the cloud-like thing. This thing had the same function as a monitor, but the structure of this thing was obviously different from the display he knew. It was like a cloud of fog, and there was no cable connection. But it can display text images. He felt that this thing should be more advanced than a human monitor. This was the first time he had seen a ball of gas acting as a display screen. It was completely different from a projection system.
To say that the void projection mastered by humans should be considered very advanced, projecting a light void image is definitely high-tech, but he really doesn't know what this fog is.
Feng Xiao couldn't understand what was displayed on it. He always thought it was a decoration, so he just glanced at it a few times and stopped paying attention. But Gong Yun could understand that the actual things on it were failing.
You can tell if someone is not qualified just by walking in the arch without doing anything. This is very similar to the human evolutionary level appraiser. It seems that there are some standards.
Those who received the queue number walked over one by one, and then walked away with disappointment on their faces, which showed that they could also understand the meaning displayed on the cloud.
Regardless of the principle and basis of the testing process, judging from the elimination rate, the conditions must be very high. Gong Yun was a little worried about whether Feng Xiao could pass the test, because many of those eliminated had higher force values than Feng Xiao.
