Walking along a newly built road, there were many young people carrying packages walking in the same direction as them.
No need to ask that they all go to Tinder City.
As long as they are strong and have some strength, they are willing to go to Fire City to find a way out.
Fire City only requires able-bodied young people, otherwise even if you are wealthy, you still have to complete corresponding tasks to get a household registration.
In this era, this is an extremely fair system and is very attractive to young people.
Moreover, there are many rich and powerful families like Qiu Asan who are trying to win over young people in order to obtain their hometown in Fire City.
So many young people went to Fire City in an endless stream.
Lin Beichen and Qiu Asan also went on foot.
Qiu Asan sighed as he walked: "If my carriage was still there in the past, we would drink and eat meat on the carriage while driving, but now we can only suffer from the pain on our legs."
Lin Beichen asked curiously: "Brother, aren't you afraid that Fire City is a scam? You will be bankrupt by then?"
Qiu Asan patted her chest and said, "I told you before that I can see people with my eyes. There will be absolutely no problem in Tinder City."
Lin Beichen shook his head slightly in his heart. Such a stubborn and confident person is definitely the favorite of liars. If he doesn't fall for it this time, he will definitely fall for it next time.
Lin Beichen simply stopped talking and walked along to watch.
It was almost evening when we climbed over a small mountain pass and saw a city under busy construction under the setting sun.
This was the first time that Lin Beichen saw someone building a city from scratch.
This city occupies a huge area, and a high platform tens of meters high is built in each of the four corners. On each high platform, there are dozens of ferocious beasts imprisoned in chains.
They are Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, and Xuanwu. There are more than a dozen of each type.
However, the qualifications of these mythical beasts are mixed. Some mythical beasts have obviously purer blood, some have higher cultivation levels, some have opened up their spiritual intelligence, crawling on the ground resignedly, depressed, and some still have a wild temperament and exert themselves with all their strength. Want to break free from the chains.
Among them was the red bird that Lin Beichen had seen not long ago, and then Lin Beichen saw another acquaintance, or a turtle.
Lin Beichen once cooked a pot of fish on a reef in the sea, and successfully attracted the old turtle with half of his head missing. At that time, the old turtle led Lin Beichen to the Taoguang Sect.
Later, Lao Gui left on his own. Lin Beichen thought that he would never see Lao Gui again. Unexpectedly, just a few days later, he would see Lao Gui here again.
The old turtle was also chained to its shell. His intelligence had already been activated and he knew there was no way to break free from the chains, so he lay there without wasting any energy. His bean-like eyes moved around helplessly, looking for a way to escape.
It probably didn't take long for him to be captured.
"Little brother, I'm not lying to you. Once this Fire City is built, we can live in peace and stability, and we don't have to worry about alien beings from outside the territory causing trouble to the world.
Although Lin Beichen has not systematically studied formations, he has dabbled in them. When he saw this city, he had a vague feeling that a powerful formation was being nurtured.
However, Lin Beichen didn't think this was anything surprising. After all, if you want to deceive people, you have to spend some money, and you can't let people see through it at a glance.
At this time, the sound of gongs was heard from the city that was being built.
Dangdangdang...
As the gong sounded, people who were working in full swing stopped working.
The whole city was filled with laughter and laughter.
Then I saw that there were work sheds at regular intervals in the city, with hot meals cooked in them. All the workers went to the work sheds, and no matter how much they ate, they were all fed.
Lin Beichen really saw a little bit of Datong society here.
Everyone builds his own city with his best efforts. There are no whip-wielding overseers or stewards who deduct wages.
"Everyone only has one meal after work."
"Furthermore, anyone who is injured here can get free medical treatment. It can be said that money is of no use here."
"Houses are allocated, living materials are also allocated, clothes are allocated, everything you need will be borne by the city lord's palace. Even the coffin will be arranged uniformly. What do you think I still have the money for? I As long as I move in and do what I'm supposed to do, I don't have to worry about anything else."
Lin Beichen was stunned for a moment, why did this thing sound so familiar?
"Is this done by Tu Qianlou?"
"That's right, who has such courage and such fantastic ideas except City Master Slaughter? Let me tell you, although I have two spare dollars in the outside world, you don't know how much I have to worry about, waking up every morning When I came here, I had to deal with lawsuits. I had to take care of endless things and deal with countless officials, big and small. In front of others, I was a master, but in front of those officials, I was worse than a grandson. This kind of torment I really don’t want to live a day like this. I just want to live a life where my mind goes blank, I sleep when I’m full, and I work when I’m full, and I don’t have to worry about myself or my children and grandchildren.”
Lin Beichen finally understood something at this moment. This Fire City is clearly a utopia. No wonder it attracts so many people who have lost all their money and come here to beg for household registration. What these people are pursuing is not peace, but a tnd dream.
In this case, even if they are fooled, some people may be willing to give it a try!
If Lin Beichen hadn't known that the Fire City could not stop the foreign immortals, he would have been interested in this utopian Fire City. If the city owner needed any help, he would have been willing to provide it to see what Tu Qianlou could do. !
Soon Lin Beichen and Qiu Asan arrived in front of the city.
The city wall is under construction, so it can't stop people, but no one gets in through the gaps in the wall, because everyone in the city has a sense of ownership. If someone is found to have sneaked in, they will be like a rat crossing the street. Same, being caught out.
More importantly, the places where people live in this city are organized into a grid. A ten-household manager is responsible for the ten surrounding households and a hundred-household manager is responsible for the registration of hundreds of households. Everyone knows who lives where. , one more person will be discovered immediately.
At this moment, Lin Beichen felt that Tu Qianlou might not have come from time travel, right?
Otherwise, why would this place be so familiar?
Qiu Asan took Lin Beichen to a shed. There was a young man sitting in the shed. When he saw Lin Beichen approaching, he immediately stood up and said hello: "Is this the new brother?"
Qiu Asan immediately said: "Yes, I recruited him. His name is Lin Xingxing."
This is Lin Beichen's new pseudonym.
The young man looked at Lin Beichen, then reached out and knocked on Lin Beichen's chest. The thumping sound was very dull.
"Hey, you're so strong! Brother, you fully meet the requirements of our Fire City. You can be naturalized now!"
"But there are some rules I need to tell you before you naturalize. You can naturalize only if you agree. If you don't agree, you can stay in the city for one night, have dinner and breakfast tomorrow morning, and then leave."
Lin Beichen asked curiously: "What are the rules?"
The young man recited: "Everyone who enters our city must abide by three iron rules. The first is that women are not allowed to interfere, steal, or bully the weak. You must know that everyone who enters our city is a brother and sister who needs to help each other. Violators will be kicked out of the city!"
"Article 2: You are not allowed to kill people, you are not allowed to promote fallacies, you are not allowed to believe in any gods, you are not allowed to hide private wealth, and those who violate it will be kicked out of the city!"
"Article 3: You are not allowed to cheat on women and follow the arrangements of the city lord. You must know that whether the city can last long requires everyone's joint efforts. Everyone does it for me and I do it for everyone. If you do your own thing well, others will benefit, and others will do well. You can also benefit from this. Violators will be expelled from the city!"
After hearing this, Lin Beichen said directly: "I accept these rules!"
The young man's face became serious: "You'd better think about it carefully. Once you violate the three iron laws set by the city lord, you will not only be expelled from the city, but there will also be corresponding punishments, from amputation of hands and feet to execution in public. You can Say, it’s impossible for you to leave in one piece!”
Lin Beichen still nodded and said
:"I accept!"
The young man smiled, then took out a document that had been written long ago and asked Lin Beichen to sign and stamp the end.
Qiu Asan on the side said with envy: "It's good to be young. It's so easy to get household registration!"
At this time, the young man took out a notebook and found Qiu Asan's name from it. While making a mark on the back, he said: "Uncle Asan, you still need to find three young people to obtain household registration. We will do it soon." Become real neighbors!"
Qiu Asan's sad face disappeared and he burst into laughter: "How are my wife and children doing? I've been gone like this for almost ten days, and I miss her so much!"
The young man said: "Sister-in-law is very good. You should have dinner in the cafeteria No. 38 now. You should go quickly!"
Qiu Asan's eyes flashed with happiness, and she nodded immediately: "Then you should go through the formalities quickly, so that I can take Brother Lin to dinner!"
The young man also nodded and said: "Come on, come on! You were brought here by Uncle Asan, so your place of residence will be next to Uncle Asan's house. You must know that if you violate the three iron rules, you will be brought here." You, Uncle Asan, who came here will also be punished!"
After saying that, the young man handed Lin Beichen a piece of wood with the words C 134 engraved on it.
"What is marked on this board is the location of your house. Fire City is divided into areas according to the Heavenly Stems (A, B, Bing, Ding, Wuji, Geng, Xinrengui) and Earthly Branches (Zichou, Yinmao, Chen, Siwu, Wuwei, Youxuhai). Each house has a number on it. From now on, this C134 house will be yours! By the way, you can go get bedding and various living utensils, and Uncle Asan will take you there!"
When Qiu Asan saw Lin Beichen taking the wooden sign, he immediately pulled Lin Beichen and said, "Let's go, let's go eat quickly. If you go late, there will be no food!"
Lin Beichen was pulled and trotted all the way into Tinder City.
