Reverend Insanity: 39th quarter: Toad caravan
May is the transition between spring and summer.
The fragrance of the flowers is diffused and the mountains are green. The sunlight gradually began to bloom its warm side.
Under the clear blue sky, white clouds float like cotton wool.
On Qingmao Mountain, Qingmao bamboo forest is still as straight as a gun, pointing to the sky. Weeds grew wild everywhere, dotted with unknown wildflowers in the grass. As soon as the breeze blew, the weeds were undulating, and the rich pollen and grassy breath blew towards us.
On the mountainside, there are a lot of terraces. Layer by layer, first order, young green wheat seedlings are planted, and from a distance it looks like a green and green sea.
A lot of farmers in the terraces are busy. Some clean up the ditch and channel for water diversion, some roll up their trousers and stand in the field to plant seedlings.
These people are all mortals with a surname, and the ancient Yue tribe do not hold such lowly karma.
Ding Jingling Bell ...
The camel bell faintly heard in the spring breeze.
The farmers stood up and turned their heads down the mountain.
I saw a caravan like a colorful bug that slowly protruded from the side of the mountain.
"It's a caravan!"
"Yes, it's May, and it's time for the caravan."
The adults know it. The urchins gave up playing in the water directly and ran to the caravan with the mud in their hands.
Qingmao Mountain is only one of the 100,000 mountains in southern Xinjiang. On each mountain, there are a number of cottages, and people maintain their villages with their blood.
Between the mountains, the forests are deep, and the cliffs are steep. The environment is complex, inhabited by a large number of beasts or strange weird maggots.
Mortal is difficult to pass. Individuals who want to overcome these difficult obstacles must also have at least three transfers to their masters.
As a result, the economy is dying and trade is difficult. The most important form of trade is the caravan.
Only the huge scale of a caravan can make a group of puppets, capable of helping each other, overcoming the difficulties and obstacles on the way, from one mountain to another.
The arrival of the caravan, like a bowl of boiling water, suddenly poured into the peaceful and peaceful Qingmao Mountain.
"In previous years, this caravan came only in May this year. But it finally came." The shopkeeper of the inn was relieved when he heard the news. The inn's business was extremely light in other months. It is only expected that the arrival of the caravan will bring about a year of support.
At the same time, there are some green bamboo wine in his inventory, which can be sold to the caravan.
Not only the inn, but also the business of the restaurant.
The caravan entered the ancient moon cottage one after another, and the head was a precious brass toad. This toad is two and a half meters tall, covered with an orange-yellow color, and has a broad toad's back, with wart grains on it, just like the huge copper rivets on the ancient city gate.
On the back of the Treasure Brass Toad, a large pile of cargo is fastened with burlap ropes. At first glance, it looks like Po Chan carrying a huge baggage.
A middle-aged man with a round cake Mazi face and a fat belly, sitting on the head of Bao Chan. With a smile, his eyes narrowed into a crack, and his fist greeted the surrounding Guyue villagers.
This person's surname is Jia Mingfu. He has four transfers and is the leader of this caravan.
Bao Chan jumped forward slightly, Jia Fu sat on the toad's head, leveled. When he bounced, he could be level with the window on the second floor. Even if it is on the ground, it must be higher than the first floor of Zhulou.
The original spacious street suddenly seemed a little narrow. The treasured brass toad looks like a monster, breaking into the bamboo house.
After the toad, it is a big fat bug. The eyes are like stained glass windows, colorful. It is fifteen meters long and resembles a silkworm. But the surface is covered with a thick layer of black enameled leather. Leather goods were also piled with fluffy goods, tied around with twine. In the gaps between the goods, there were a number of eunuchs, old and young.
And mortals, all strong warriors, followed the black leather beetles slowly on the ground.
After the fat beetle, there are also colorful feathered camels, fluffy mountain spiders, two-winged winged snakes, and so on. But these are only a few, most of them are mainly toads.
The toads are similar to precious brass toads, but they are smaller and have a horse-and-horse shape. Carrying the goods and people, bulging belly, walking.
The caravan winded its way into the cottage.
Along the way, the children widened their eyes, looked curiously, screamed, and marveled.
The windows on the second floor opened one after another, and the mountain people observed closely. Some eyes flashed with dread, some waved a warm welcome.
"Brother Jia, it's a bit late this year, and I've been working hard all the time." Gu Yuebo personally welcomed the leader of the caravan as the patriarch.
Jia Fu is a four-turn master, and it is undoubtedly neglectful to let the three-turn master be in charge of the reception.
Jia Fu held his fists in both hands and sighed: "This year's journey was not smooth. I encountered a group of **** bats on the road and lost a lot of good hands. I was also afraid to leave when I encountered the mountain fog in the cliff. Ah. So it was delayed a lot. Brother Gu Yue was waiting a long time.
Be polite.
The ancient moon cottage requires the caravan to come to trade every year, and the caravan also needs to make money.
"Hehehe, just come here. Please, the clan has already prepared food and drinks, let me take care of the wind for my brother." Gu Yuebo reached out and invited.
"The patriarch is very polite, too polite." Jia Fuzuo was flattered.
The caravan arrived at Qingmao Mountain in the morning and settled in Guyue cottage at noon. In the evening, a large area of temporary shops was formed around the cottage. Various red, blue, yellow, and green tall tents were set up, and numerous small stalls were plugged between the tents.
Night has come, but it's brightly lit here.
Plenty of pedestrians pour here from the village. There are mortals as well as puppet masters. The children were jumping and jumping, and adults' faces also appeared with joy.
Fang Yuan walked in here alone with the flow of people.
Crowds are bustling, piles of ground around the stalls, or coming in and out of the tent.
Crowds of shouts came from around.
"Come here and take a look. It ’s a fine blue sea cloud tea brick. Drinking this mouthful of tea is like a fairy. Hey! Even if people do n’t drink it, feeding kestrel is cheap and beautiful. One piece only needs Wuyuanshi! "
"The brute force is so powerful, the Master can spur it, and it can skyrocket. If you pass by, don't miss it!"
"Spiritaceae, first-class plant, look at the condition, fresh as fresh as just picked. What a cheap price a pound of two yuan stone ..."
Fang Yuan heard this, stepped slightly, and looked at the sound.
I saw an ostrich pulling a two-wheeled scooter. The scooters were piled with pink-green grass. Each grass is one meter long and very slender, on average only the width of a fingernail. Some grasses have red heart-shaped flower buds on their tips.
Scirpus chinensis is one of the auxiliary food for tapeworms. Its value lies in that it can be paired with some foods to feed tapeworms.
For example, Fang Yuan feeds the moonlight salamander and needs two petals per meal. If blended with the last heart grass, Moonlight swells with a slice of Yuelan petals.
There are only two yuan stones for a pound of Zhixin grass, and one yuan stone for every ten petals of Yuelan. After a little calculation, you know that it is more cost-effective to feed maggots mixed with Zhicao grass.
"Half a month ago, I killed Gao Bowl because I used Moonlight in the school and was fined 30 yuan. However, the Mo family later compensated me 30 yuan, which is not a loss. These days, I robbed it twice, totaling 118 yuan stones. But recently I have been consuming the refined middle-level true yuan, warming up the empty walls, and consuming three yuan stones every day. In addition to the maggot The cost of feeding, and the cost of living, have been continuously invested in the purchase of green bamboo wine. There are now 98 yuan in hand.
Since Fang Yuan has killed people, the cruel and cruel image has deeply rooted in the practitioner's heart, and no one dares to challenge him for a while. It made it easy for him to rob. Only a few people dare to confront him at a time.
Fang Yuan made a calculation in his heart, then turned his attention, and continued to go deep into the temporary shop area.
A bunch of people are standing on the grass stand. They are all teachers or students, holding Yuan Shi in their hands and rushing to buy.
Fang Yuan doesn't have no money to buy this grass, but he doesn't have time.
"If you remember nothing wrong, the maggot is in that shop. There was a guru in the previous life who bet it on the first night, so it made a lot of money. I have to hurry, not because It ’s a big mistake. ”
