At noon on the second day, everyone packed up and said goodbye to the Mulberry clan.
Jiang Yan and Meng Ran held Sang Ying's hand and talked about how the east wind will prevail over the west wind in the future. They fully popularized the modern concept of equality between men and women to Sang Ying. Sang Ying was shocked and thought that this was the case in the human world.
In Yu Liang's opinion, this is completely unfounded.
My mother is a mountain god, how can this kid turn the world upside down?
Li San didn't know whether it was because he drank the wine yesterday that he got better or if speaking the truth after drinking really strengthened his relationship. He and Sang Xiong had some sympathy for each other, and they communicated with each other in human language with some difficulty on how to achieve their goals in secret.
"Can you teach your children better?" Li Qiang couldn't bear to listen anymore and turned around to glare at them.
This place is already at the edge of Yuemeng Mountain, and Qi Zhen is walking at the front with Sang Yuan.
"After seeing you for thousands of miles, we must say goodbye eventually." Sang Yuan said.
"Well, that's it, thank you." Qi Zhen said.
Everyone stopped.
"It's nothing but disrespect." Sang Yuan took out a cloth bag from her arms and handed it to Qi Zhen.
Qi Zhen took it and found that it was really heavy. As soon as she opened it, the light dazzled her eyes.
Gold and silver jewelry.
Qi Zhen smiled slightly, did not refuse Sang Yuan's kindness, and ordered Yu Liang to put it away.
Indeed, in human society, it is indeed difficult to move forward without gold and silver.
Sang Xiong felt a little unhappy when he saw this scene.
"You are not only a greedy cat, you are also a money addict." Li San said looking at his expression.
Sang Xiong obviously didn't understand what Greedy Mao and Cai Fan meant. In the blink of an eye, the cloth bag disappeared from Yu Liang's hand, which made him look stunned.
"In addition, this thing was accidentally discovered by my clan and has been kept until now. I hope you can accept it."
Sang Yuan took out another palm-sized yellow bead from her body and handed it to Qi Zhen.
This is……
While Qi Zhen was puzzled, the system's voice came to her ears: Congratulations on obtaining the epic earth spirit bead.
He was very familiar with this thing.
Still bowing to Sang Yuan and thanking her, Qi Zhen carefully took the Earth Spirit Pearl into her arms.
Sang Yuan walked back to her children, took Sang Ying and Sang Xiong and bowed deeply to everyone.
"It's a high mountain and a long road. I hope my benefactor has a safe journey."
"See you later!" Qi Zhen returned the greeting.
"Sang Ying, I'm going to have a fat baby when I come back!" Meng Ran waved to Sang Ying and shouted.
Everyone walked forward, turning back three times with one step.
Sangyuan's family of three stood there until the team disappeared from sight.
"This is the first time I feel like this in a game." Jiang Yan finally walked out of Yuemeng Mountain and said.
Li Qiang and Yu Liang both nodded.
In previous games, you were either trying to break through levels or fighting for your life. How could you live such a leisurely life now and have such a deep connection with the NPC in the game?
After hearing this, Qi Zhen shook her head and said, "I'm afraid the good or bad is unknown."
Everyone glanced at him and knew that he was thinking blindly again.
The distance from Suzhou to Shushan is really long.
According to the map drawn by the Sangshe clan for the Qi Zhen team, this route almost traverses the land of China.
In fact, even without this picture, Qi Zhen and the others knew that this journey would not be easy based on their experience in the past.
From Jiangsu to Sichuan, can you walk to death on just two legs?
After discovering the general timeline of this world in Suzhou City, Qi Zhen gave up her plan to go to Yuhang County to find Li Xiaoyao's whereabouts.
Now I can only try to find Yuntianhe, Jingtian or Nangonghuang, the three protagonists in the game.
Thinking of this, Qi Zhen realized that she had forgotten to ask Wu Tian if he knew the whereabouts of these three people.
What a huge oversight.
Qi Zhen was a little upset as she didn't know when she would see Wu Tian again.
With the strength of everyone's feet, we soon arrived at the first stop of the trip - Taihu Lake.
Everyone is familiar with the scenic spot Taihu Lake, but looking at it from the perspective of ancient people, Taihu Lake is different from the old world.
Fishing in the smoke is leisure. The pine trees and osmanthus trees in the thatched cottage have already reached their peak. The crescent moon bends several times. A green Taihu Lake covers an area of 30,000 hectares, standing tall against Dongting Mountain. When the storm arises, it must be returned.
At this moment, Taihu Lake really took on the meaning of vastness, which not only made everyone sigh, but the ancients never deceived me.
"It turns out Taihu Lake is so beautiful!" Meng Ran sighed.
"Yes, using modern means for ecological development, no matter how well protected it is, it will ultimately lose a lot of natural charm." Qi Zhen nodded and said.
Everyone decided to come here early in the morning to look for a boat. After all, crossing Taihu Lake by boat is much faster than walking.
After a while, everyone found a ferryman by the Taihu Lake who was doing business on a ferry.
The boatman looked to be in his thirties and had dark skin.
He was slightly stunned when he saw the group of people.
"Excuse me, can you take the guests across the river?" Qi Zhen asked.
"Bring it, why don't you bring it?" The boatman reacted and said quickly.
"You can't fit eight people into your boat." Qi Zhen looked at the boat behind the boatman and cautiously expressed doubts about its capacity.
"There are too many of you. This boat won't work. We need to find a big boat for you. Big boats are expensive." Said the boatman.
"I wonder how much it will cost?" Qi Zhen asked.
"One tael of silver, one person." The boatman pointed his finger deep inside.
Qi Zhen thought about the gold and silver in the cloth bag and nodded.
"good."
The boatman was stunned again when he heard this, looked at everyone carefully, and said: "Pay half of the deposit first, and I will help you find a boat."
Qi Zhen nodded and asked Yu Liang to take out the smallest silver ingot from the cloth bag.
Five taels!
Is five taels a lot of silver?
Based on the team's current financial situation, compared with the cloth bag given by Sang Yuan, it can be said to be nothing.
But if you go by the average income of people in this world, it would be a bit scary.
One tael of silver is approximately equal to one thousand copper coins, which is consistent.
One penny can buy two large white steamed buns in Suzhou city.
So when the boatman saw these five taels of silver, his eyes were straight.
Today I met someone who was taken advantage of.
Everyone in the team didn't care and watched the boatman take the money and run out.
After a while, the boatman came back, and his words were much more polite.
"Masters, please come to me."
Everyone followed him for a while and arrived at a pier that looked much neater.
There are so many boats here that it looks like a fishing port.
There are also many more people.
Everyone was led to a temporary shack and met the real owner.
A tall and thick man sat on the stool, with a sinister look on his face.
"Dang...brother, we've arrived." The boatman was glared at and quickly changed his words.
"Are you taking a boat?"
Qi Zhen said politely: "Yes."
"Okay, let's go."
The man walked in front, Qi Zhen's team walked in the middle, and the boatman trailed behind.
Li San was at the back of the team and asked the boatman, "What's your surname?"
"If you don't mind, you can just call me the second boatman. Everyone calls me that." The boatman said respectfully.
"Before we came here, we heard that Taihu Lake has been plagued by water bandits. Do you know?" Li San asked again.
"I know... I know." Chuan Er said with a smile.
"The adults from Suzhou Prefecture sent troops here before, but there was no result, so they went back."
"Thank you for your hard work, you serious people." Li San patted his shoulder and emphasized the word "serious".
"Hey, it's hard-earned money, you're welcome."
The boat in front of them was more than a circle larger than an ordinary fishing boat. It was obviously a passenger ship specially used to carry passengers. The group of people boarded the boat seemingly unaware of it and each found a place to sit down.
"Weigh anchor!" As the man shouted, the boat slowly sailed away from the shore and headed towards the center of Taihu Lake.
At first the boat left the shore very fast, but when it reached the position in the lake, it gradually slowed down.
The second boatman served tea and snacks, and explained: "The wind has been strong on the lake these days. On the one hand, it is for safety, and on the other hand, it is also for everyone's comfort. Our boat will be a little slower. You can also take a look along the way. You can enjoy the food and drink at your own leisure with no charge, no charge."
No one said anything, nor did they eat or drink.
No matter how slow the boat sails, there will always be a moment when it reaches the center of the lake. When Yuemeng Mountain finally became a small slope in everyone's eyes, Meng Ran couldn't help but speak.
"I asked, were all people in ancient times so simple?" Meng Ran asked Li San in confusion.
"You feel simple, that's because society is developing. How do you think we can have so many twists and turns now? Isn't it the valuable experience left by these ancestors?" Although Li San is much better than Meng Ran now, However, I was still a little scared at the bottom of my heart.
"But isn't this a bit too low-level?" Meng Ran asked next.
"Then what else can we do? The trick of a black tour guide? How troublesome. There are no cameras in this era. People are killed, money is robbed, and the body is tied with stones and thrown into the lake. No one is aware of it. It saves trouble. Son?" Li San said with a smile.
The tall and thick man held the direction of the ship in his hand, but his hand shook at this moment.
In fact, his ears have been listening to the movements of the team.
Ancient...society...tour guide?
What is a camera?
Um?
The boss of the boat stared, killing people, grabbing money, destroying corpses and destroying traces, he understood this!
"You guys, copy the guy!" the man shouted, knowing that he had been exposed.
Following the sound of footsteps, more than twenty men poured into the cabin, all of them shirtless and extremely muscular.
They were holding long knives and staring at Qi Zhen's team like they were staring at a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
Boat 2 was also among them, looking at Jiang Yan and Meng Ran with a lustful light in his eyes.
"Master, can you reward me with those two women after you've finished using them?"
"Hahaha, no problem, brothers all have a share, and we can't take them back anyway." The boss of the ship laughed loudly, seeming confident.
His eyes widened, and he shouted to everyone: "Hand over all the gold and silver you have, and I will give you a happy life!"
It's a pity that the pressure he thought he had had had no impact on everyone.
"I hate this kind of thing." Meng Ran sat in his seat, bored.
"Me too." Jiang Yan looked at the beautiful scenery outside the ship's side, feeling a little bored.
"Doesn't this prove that you two are charming?" Lin Xiao said with a smile.
"Captain, do you want to kill or not?" Yu Liang looked at Qi Zhen and Li Qiang.
"Kill you, you will ruin the scenery." Qi Zhen looked at the lake view outside the boat and retorted without hesitation.
The ship boss's thoughts changed rapidly at this time. Seeing that these people were so calm and calm, they were either bluffing or relying on something.
Then I thought about it, people like me are in the business of licking blood from the knife edge. At worst, if the people run away and the boat is cut, let these people feed the fish. In the 30,000-hectare Taihu Lake, if these people swim, they will be tired. died.
Thinking of this, the boss of the ship waved his hand and shouted: "Come on!"
"Wait a minute!" Yu Liang shouted at this time.
"What? Changed your mind?" The ship boss thought about it and saved himself trouble.
"rock-paper-scissors!"
"rock-paper-scissors!"
"I won, I won!" Lin Xiao said excitedly, looking at Yu Liang who looked annoyed.
"Win two out of three!" Yu Liang said.
"Bah, you didn't say that just now." Lin Xiao spat.
"Then whoever loses will win!" Yu Liang argued again.
"Get out of here." A red copper glove appeared in Lin Xiao's hand without even looking at Yu Liang.
