Chapter 7 Town 2
Liu Dahai wiped the wine at the corner of his mouth and asked Zhang Ming two, "How come you two have fallen to such a level?"
Zhang Ming said helplessly: "We are foreigners, and our hometown is remote. This time we came out with the team. We were in danger halfway through the road and lost our direction in panic. Then we walked into the forest while looking for the team."
Liu Dahai thought about it for a while but couldn't understand it and said, "What?"
His accent was a bit strange, but Liu Dahai still couldn't understand it.
Zhang Ming said again: "We are remote in our hometown and we are lost with the convoy!"
Liu Dahai said: "Oh, it's not surprising that you two are dressed so strangely."
Then he said, "I don't think you two are poor or ordinary children, they are children of wealthy families, are they?"
Zhang Ming said: "Well, that's right, it's not a family with high power and high positions, but just a small business at home. Our place is remote and the customs are different, so our family has business dealings with outsiders. This is the first time we came out with the team to experience it, but we didn't expect..."
Zhang Ming stopped talking.
Dahai sipped his wine and looked at Zhang Ming who was still drinking slowly, asking, "Your dressing... I have never seen such a team before, it is difficult to find you! You guys are you ready to go where to find your team to go home?"
"I don't know, I'm not familiar with the place, let's see the situation! Zhang Ming asked, "Are there any nearby big cities and main roads around here? We want to go over and take a look."
"We are just a small area called Wanfu Town. There is a city "Bayi City" two thousand miles away along the main road. There is also a city that turns left and turns Mingyang. There are some towns on the road, and I don't know where you are going?" Dahai asked.
"I might just go to Bali City first and see if there should be some news over there." Zhang Ming said a little depressedly.
Two thousand miles, that is, one thousand kilometers! I don’t know how many days it takes to walk, even in ancient times, horses took many days to travel. But here it looks so magical, maybe some powerful horses will arrive in one or two days, Zhang Ming thought.
Dahai said generously: "Young Master, don't worry. You might as well walk with our team first. We have to pass through Bali City along the way.
Zhang Ming thought about it, agreed, and said, "I'm so grateful!"
Lao Zhou: "Please trouble you!"
"Haha, you're welcome." He smiled, and then greeted a friend behind him: "Xiao Liu, come and go to pack up a room for these two young masters."
"Hello." The guy replied.
"How dare you? How dare you? Just clean it up by yourself." Zhang Ming said as he was about to stand up.
But Dahai shouted: "Sit down, don't we drink and eat?"
Zhang Ming had to smile bitterly and said, "Okay, there's no need for you, just call me Brother Ming or Brother Zhang."
"That's right, what's the matter!" Lao Zhou simply touched his wine glass generously and said, "Eat vegetables..."
Zhang Ming tasted the unique ancient food. The rice had a fragrance and the flavor of vegetables, which was rare at that time.
Zhang Ming looked up at the corner of the house. The style of the corner of the house was still somewhat changed from ancient China. Perhaps the progress of world civilization and people's aesthetics of life may also be moving forward.
The sea was delicious, and Zhang Ming didn't forget to say when he ate: "From now on, we will call you Brother Liu?"
He smashed the wine and said, "Just call me Lao Liu, or it's Brother Liu!"
"Um."
Zhang Ming replied that after he tasted the wine, Zhang Ming thought to himself that the wine is quite fragrant.
At this time, Zhang Ming accidentally saw a six-story carving building in the town, with a faint mysterious light scattered around one place. It was a small carving pavilion building, and the roof tiles on the roof were exquisite and fantastic.
When Lao Liu saw him looking at it, he said to him: "A few days ago, some monks came to our town. It seemed that they were from the Seventy-Two Source Sects. They seemed to have some purpose in going to Wangwu Forest. They also strengthened several formations in this town. There is where they live. They made a lot of things in the town. Originally, our town was not so high-end!"
"Seventy-two Source Gate..." Zhang Ming and Zhou Jianming silently wrote it down in their hearts.
"Haha, have you seen monks? They are different from us mortals. They practice immortality as the way, gather together to walk in the sky, and can cover the sky and the sun above and fly to the sky below. It is really enviable!" Old Liu said with a respectful look on his face and yearning for him.
"We are so prosperous, but we have only come to these immortals during this period. They don't look very good usually. They have made a lot of things in the town, and I don't know what they are for." Old Liu continued.
"See it." Old Zhou said silently.
Lao Liu took out a square metal object from his arms, with a faint pattern on it, as if it had some function. The bright textures on it were constantly changing. Lao Liu took a look and observed Zhang Ming and the others.
Zhang Ming was a little strange and fresh about what that thing was. There was no such thing in the ancient mortal world before, but Lao Zhou held on to the point of not responding, and didn't even look at it.
When Lao Liu saw that they had some strange eyes, he didn't say that they might be really from other places.
I ate enough food and drank enough wine. It was just dark. Old Liu shouted the guy in front of me to come and take them to the room to rest. In ancient times, people had a very early rest time, and they went to bed at 8 or 9 o'clock, and it was almost the same at this time.
"We will be outside watching goods tonight. If you two are bored, you can come out to chat with us." Old Liu said casually.
"Yes." Zhang Ming responded politely.
Zhang Ming and Lao Zhou entered the room, and they also had the fragrance of the wine and food just now. The wine in ancient times was mellow and moist, not so strong, and had a unique taste. With this side dish with balsamic vinegar, the taste was very comfortable.
Zhang Ming sat down by the bed and looked at the arrangement of the room. It was very simple. There were two beds, Zhang Ming and Lao Zhou each. Zhang Ming felt that his body felt full after eating and drinking, as if the vitality in his body had been expanded. This may be the reason why the world is too full and he has eaten and drunk it.
Taking advantage of the candlelight, Zhang Mingyu said to Lao Zhou earnestly: "If we want to survive in the future, we must learn the magic of immortals and find a way back to the earth. Otherwise, we will be slaughtered by others when we are slaughtered."
"I know it's not your fault today, it's me." Zhang Ming continued: "I know you have always been very good to Xiaoma. Every time you go out for an adventure in the wild, you carry him on your back. What happened today is that it's my fault. I shouldn't be sulking, you don't have to blame yourself."
Lao Zhou looked at him: "..."
The candles swallowed by the night in the room add a heavy touch to people's hearts.
"That was an accident. You are just doing this today to take on this responsibility so that we can continue." Zhang Ming smiled contemptuously.
Zhang Ming said lightly: "In order for us to go further in the future, I will make the decision and you will restrain me. There are only two of us brothers left. If I do something wrong, you criticize me, and if you don't listen, you will hit me, and I will never fight back."
Zhou Jianming looked at him with a heavy look, and the dark candlelight swayed on his face.
Suddenly he started crying: "Woooooooo...I'm sorry to Xiaoma, I'm sorry to him!"
"It's okay, it's okay." Zhang Ming comforted him, his eyes shining with tears.
"We have to go on, live, and find the opportunity to cultivate immortality. In this way, we may not! We will definitely find the way home!" Zhang Ming held his shoulder and said to him.
Zhou Jianming clenched his fists silently and said lightly: "I know! I was not as smart as you and Xiaoma, but you are not Xiaoma. We will support each other, fight hard and go to danger together. No matter what, there are two brothers in this world."
"Yes." Zhang Ming nodded with tears in his eyes.
"I mean, if, if only you and I can only live one of them, I..." Zhou Jianming said suddenly.
"No if!" Zhang Ming interrupted.
Zhang Ming smiled with some pain and said, "This is not a game, this is a world that cannibalizes people." After that, he said, "Let's go, I'll go out for a walk, are you going?"
"Go!" Old Zhou said.
Zhou Jianming looked at his back as he turned around and left, and said firmly: "I will definitely not give up on my companion again! If I encounter this situation next time, even if I try my best, I will let you survive, because you have more hope than me to live in this world."
Zhang Ming walked out, and Zhou Jianming followed behind him. Zhang Ming already knew that this place looked like the style of Jiangnan town on the other side of the earth.
Here are dark tiles, low-rise towns, dark green walls, lush rain and forests.
As soon as Zhang Ming walked out, he looked up at the sky. The sky at that night had a unique flavor.
On the open space outside the courtyard wall where vehicles and goods were stored, Lao Liu and a few friends sat on the wooden wheel truck carrying cargo and were talking about something in the bonfire.
The bright stars seemed to illuminate the sky, and there were several friends guarding the entrance to the street corner, and the attic where the monk lived was shining, like an immortal palace, reminding it of its difference from other parts of the town.
In a wooden pavilion on the side of the backyard, a young lady in elegant clothes was holding a pen and writing, gracefully holding the cuffs of her right hand in one hand. The brush was gently stained with ink, but through the open pavilion window, she saw Zhang Ming and Zhou Jianming below.
Their clothes are a bit strange. Although their clothes are torn, they are not as whispering like others. They are not as silly as others. They act leisurely and complacently, and their pampered behavior is not as arrogant as other young men. It is very different from ordinary people.
Lin Qingxiu in the attic continued to look at the two strange boys.
When Zhang Ming saw the night sky, he was immediately pleasing to the eye, and all the unhappiness in his heart was slowly healed.
Zhang Ming walked over quickly to chat with Lao Liu and the others, and asked for some information by the way, and Zhou Jianming followed him behind.
Zhang Ming didn't know that someone had watched him from behind for a long time.
Zhang Ming walked behind Lao Liu and the others. Lao Liu felt the two of them coming from behind and turned around. At this time, the lady in the attic also closed the window lightly.
"How is it? Are you still used to living?" Lao Liu asked.
Zhang Ming smiled slightly and said to him sincerely: "It's OK."
Lao Zhou said later: "Do you always have to watch here?"
Lao Liu: "No, we have shifts, we won't be able to guard it later."
A thinner middle-aged man said: "Person Liu doesn't use this vigil, but he's willing to come."
After hearing this, Old Liu laughed and said, "It's okay for me to come here. It's a responsibility to come here. It's not that good for people to be too idle."
Zhang Ming and Lao Zhou also sat down together, looking as if they were willing to listen to them.
Lao Liu also appreciates them very much when he sees them like this. It is rare for young people from these two wealthy and noble families to have such an attitude. However...
How could he have thought that Zhang Ming and Lao Zhou were just ordinary boys from another world?
