As the sun went down, the young man saw the guests coming from afar. After saying hello, the travelers came to the young man's house.
"Want something to eat, traveler?"
You can tell his condition from his appearance. There are often people from far away here now, and everyone does not exclude them and welcomes them warmly.
This is also a social trend, and there is no need to be afraid even if people from afar are enemies. People in this era are farmers when they step into the fields, and warriors when they step out of the fields.
And the young man can see that this person from afar has no totem.
The prerequisites for letting go of your mind are: first, strength, and second, confidence. Only when you are strong can you be confident, and if this kind of confidence lasts for three generations, it will become pride that radiates from the bones.
Just like the soldiers in the Central Plains.
"You are a powerful warrior."
People who came from afar took a closer look at the young man's face and body, and saw the cocoons in his hands.
The people who come from far away are the cliffs coming out of the mountains.
The Gutong clan's wizard told him to come here, so he came.
Climbing over mountains and ridges, walking through hills, seeing green water and red water, we finally reached the wilderness of Zaoli.
When they arrived at the Wilderness of Zaoli, they had already reached the territory of the Hongzhou Alliance.
Then, while walking around randomly, because the route and direction that Lord Ji Li came from were different, he didn't see Lu's big fish beam, but came here.
"I'm from the Pushui clan, just call me Amon."
Meng is originally the name of a kind of grass, but it also means youth.
Ya didn't see Amen's parents here, so he asked. Amen opened the pottery cauldron and saw that the rice inside had been cooked. He took out a bowl and opened it, and brought a bowl to Yaya.
Ya swallowed.
After he left the Gutong clan, he hadn't had a serious meal for a long time, and the land beside the Huodu water couldn't grow such good-looking grains.
Although Ya has vaguely realized that it may be because the Huodu tribe’s farming methods in the deep mountains are lagging behind...
But it's meaningless to say all this now. I have already left the mountain.
Outside the mountain, there is a vast world.
"Born between heaven and earth, they are also buried between heaven and earth. My father and mother have returned to the starry sky and are included in Yunhan."
Amon said calmly, and Yadun immediately apologized, but Amon said calmly:
"Birth, old age, illness and death are just natural phenomena in this world. My parents returned to the stars in the autumn of last year. At that time, our family had just built this rammed earth house."
"At that time, the Hongzhou Alliance had just been established. The big leaders sent some people to help us build a house of rammed earth and put a layer of shell on it with stones. At that time, my father looked at the house. Saying okay, okay..."
Ya looked at the earthen house and nodded: "It is indeed a good house..."
The meat was roasted over the fire, the beans were soaked in soy sauce, there were pickles in the clay pot, and two eggs were boiled as a treat to the guests.
Also, there are plump fish.
"Our tribe used to fish and hunt, so there is a big fish pond in the tribe, and it is also close to the water flow. In fact, if you don't go far to the northwest, you can see a big weir..."
"Add some egg garlic...add some ginger slices..."
The seemingly weird way to eat it made Ya a little afraid to eat it at first, but the tangy aroma is the best seducer to overcome habit.
Ya was very surprised. There were many vegetables and grains here, as well as the dark thing called soy sauce, which he had never seen in the Gutong clan.
Especially the bottle containing soy sauce is actually translucent!
"This is called glazed pottery. Hehe, my father used to work in the public fields and was rewarded by the public fields. He treasured this thing..."
Ya couldn't understand again and could only ask while eating.
What is public land?
"where do you come from?"
The corners of Ya's mouth were covered with rice grains, and he was chewing. Listening to Amon's inquiry, he said vaguely:
"Mountains, inside the mountains, in my hometown, there is a five-hundred-year-old Ganzhi tree and a Huodu Lake with flying fireflies."
The sun had completely set on the mountain, and the barking of the native dog sounded sleepy. The door opened, and Amon invited Ya to spend the night at his home.
The starry sky is as bright as the one in the mountains, but in the wilderness of Biyi, because of the light of the three fire discs of the sun, moon and stars, the starry sky seen is not as pure as here.
In the room, the dim light of the coals shone in the corner, and Amen was carving a bamboo slip. Ya was very strange, so he asked him what he was doing.
However, Amon did not answer him directly, but asked Yadao:
"Ya, what is your dream?"
Of course Ya did it without thinking:
"Experience the vast world, meet different people, and learn powerful skills. I don't have a totem, so I don't want to live in the mountains all my life."
"Finally, the fallen leaves will return to the mountains, and I will also return to the shores of Huodu Lake."
Amon smiled.
"That's great. Are you married?"
Ya's hand stiffened for a moment, then he forced a smile and sighed, pretending not to care: "There is someone I like, but if I come out, she will marry someone else. There is nothing I can do about it."
"You haven't told me yet, what are you writing?"
Amon said: "A request. After my father and mother passed away, I can't farm so much land by myself. I hope I can rent a cow."
"I hope the mailman can deliver it to the oil mill in Gongtian."
There are already postmen within the Hongzhou Alliance, and they are people from the Gao Shi clan. After all, they were originally in this business, but in the past they were urging people to hand over sacrificial grains, and now they are delivering letters.
Ya was puzzled: "Farming? Amon, haven't you ever thought about going out and taking a look?"
Amon was stunned: "What are you looking at?"
Ya jumped up: "Of course, look at how vast the world is outside! The turtle doesn't know where the fish are!"
"Your south is so amazing, why don't you want to go to the Central Plains to see it?!"
"Zhongyuan must be even more powerful!"
Amon was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Ya was confused and even a little embarrassed, feeling as if Amon was suddenly laughing at him. He could hear the helpless sound in the other person's laughter.
But Amon didn't let Ya be upset for too long.
"I won't tell you more, just wait at my house. About ten days later, there will be a Spring Festival, and the spring plowing has already begun. You can go with me then."
"Let me show you what the south is really like. Our place is just a remote corner!"
"As for the Central Plains, you are right. I have never been to the Central Plains, but I know that there are many people from the Central Plains who have come to study in our south!"
Ya was stunned on the spot, while Amon said:
"Five years ago, we had fertile land, but we didn't know how to use it. The elders in the tribe were hungry every day and ate rice husks, while the children only ate a little grain... Fish was not harvested every day... "
"Five years ago, the entire south was like this. There was a shortage of salt, a shortage of minerals, a shortage of agricultural grains, a shortage of cattle, sheep, dolphins, and chickens... We were short of everything, even people."
"But since... came, everything started to change."
Ya couldn't understand what Amon was saying at first, but Amon's hands started to tremble with excitement.
"He said that in another ten years, he will not think about the capital, not even the spiritual mountains!"
"Fifteen years is enough for a child to grow into a warrior!"
"Everything you see now is made by our own hands!"
For young people, among the big leaders, Yuzai is their idol, a spiritual totem-like existence!
Because Yu Zai was once the same age as them!
Young people who have experienced changes have a greater vision for the future. Amon can still remember the floods, destroyed crops, and poor fishing and hunting, but what about now?
It was late at night, and everyone fell asleep. Under the starry sky, the spring breeze blew, and there was a tree full of flowers after a night.
