Chapter 203 Rift Valley County
It is very strange that two people who traveled a long distance had no conversation along the way.
These strange two people are Zhang Wei and Ajuan.
Zhang Wei rode a camel and looked at the boundless desert, feeling a little uneasy, so he secretly touched the few magic talismans in his arms, and felt much more at ease.
There are still a few water talismans left in his arms. In the absence of water, he only needs to take the Qi-Reinforced Pill and activate the water talisman when there is temporarily true qi in his body, and then he can take water and drink it.
In addition to some magical talismans and a few solid Qi pills, Zhang Wei also carried some debris, fine and soft items, which were all taken out when he was in the execution ground before.
The temperature in the desert is quite high. People who travel long distances often wrap the entire head with white cloth to prevent the head from being too high. Moreover, this layer of headscarf can help travelers resist the damage of wind and sand.
Ajuan's headscarf has been wrapped for a long time. She took off the headscarf and stole the breathable, shaking the wind and sand on it.
Her head is growing in the wind, and if her skin is not slightly darker, she would have looked more beautiful. Her firm and well-proportioned body exudes the breath of youth.
Zhang Wei looked at Ajuan and couldn't help but think of Aman, and felt indescribable.
In Ajuan's eyes, Aman died for Zhang Wei, and now Zhang Wei's life has fulfilled Aman's wish before his death. In Zhang Wei's eyes, Ajuan has paid so much for Aman, so there is no trace of Aman in her.
The two of them walked for a few more days and gradually encountered some caravans during the journey.
Since there are more and more caravans, it is naturally much closer to Tianyun Vein Mine.
The Tianyun Vein Mine is located at a point west of the center of the Xifan Kingdom. It is said that it was formed by the impact of a giant meteorite falling from the sky more than two hundred years ago. Since the impact of the meteorite, a huge rift has appeared on the ground, and many jade mine caves have appeared in the rift.
Rift Valley County is named after the Great Rift Valley adjacent to the Tianyun Vein Mine. Although it is a county town, it is quite huge because it is rich in beautiful jade.
After Zhang Wei entered the county town, he seemed to be indifferent to the caravans and the numerous merchants around him. Ajuan behind him seemed extremely excited. After so many years, she finally saw this prosperous world again. If it weren't for the white scarf covering her cheeks, her tears would have been seen by people around him.
"After we come here, should we go to the government office to register?" Zhang Wei asked Ajuan in a low voice.
Although Ajuan was unwilling to have too much conversation with Zhang Wei, at this time, she had to answer: "Yes. But I heard that the exiled miserables who had obtained mining qualifications to come here should have been stopped by the guards as soon as they entered the county town. However, I saw that the guards just now did not stop you and me, and this... I don't understand a little."
Zhang Wei didn't know it either, he said, "Then let's go to the government office first."
In fact, Zhang Wei and Ajuan came to the county town from the desert on the west side, and should have been stopped by the guards on duty in the city gate. In the past, those exiled were basically in a state of half-death when they came here. Those suffering people did not have enough water and mounts along the way. They basically rely on a little water and dry food, and then they survived the bitter earth tumors.
Often, about 30% of the poor people who have obtained qualifications die on the journey here on the way here.
Although Zhang Wei and Ajuan are not very energetic, they are at least full of energy. Secondly, the two houses given by Hu Baihu are really strong. They have such a strong house, and their identities are at least good. So the guards on duty at the city gate saw Zhang Wei for more than eight times, but hesitated for a long time, but still didn't stop Zhang Wei and asked about his identity.
So Zhang Wei and Ajuan walked into the county town with swagger.
The master at the government office was basking in the sun, smoking a dry cigarette in the yard, enjoying his leisure time in the afternoon. As soon as he smoked half a pot of cigarette, he saw a man and a woman walking over with a camel.
The other party presented the letter. When the master saw the letter, he felt a little dazzled. What's going on? They were actually miserable people? The master rubbed his eyes again. He talked to Zhang Wei for a few words. He found that the other party was indeed a miserable people who had returned from exile. He stood up and prepared to raise his chest and whisper a few official words to show his majesty.
However, he looked at the camel behind the two of them again, and the erect body couldn't help but shrink back. "What's this matter... It's quite complicated. You are waiting here. I'll ask the county magistrate." After that, the master ran to the government office with two qualification letters.
Zhang Wei couldn't help but feel a little strange when he was going to find the county magistrate to decide this matter. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Ajuan.
Ajuan shrugged and shook her head. She also felt strange, because she had heard that such things did not even require the teacher to cook, and sometimes some managers deal with these things.
Not long after, the master came back. His face was not very good-looking, because the county magistrate was calling a cultivator of the Huosha Sect. He was very annoyed that the master was annoyed by such a small matter and scolded him a few words.
At this time, the master thought about the county magistrate's words just now, "The man was sent directly to the mine, and the woman was beautiful and would go to the kiln. If she was ugly, she would take her to the water room. If she was ugly, she would teach you?" He cleared his throat and said, "Awei, go to the mine of Dingqi. Ajuan... go to Baihuayuan." At this point, the master looked at the camels at the two ends and said, "By the way, those camels at the two ends are confiscated to the government office."
After hearing this, Ajuan stepped forward angrily, but was grabbed by Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei took a deep breath. He stood at the entrance of the government office and looked around for a week. Then he took out a ingot of silver and stuffed it into the master's hand and said, "When I left, Hu Baihu told me to bring these two camels to you, and I hope the master will take care of you."
The master looked down and saw a full ingot of silver. He instantly stuffed the silver into his sleeve, but no sound appeared on his face.
Zhang Wei didn't have much silver on him. After he took it out of the Miaosheng micro flower on the execution ground, he kept it on his body in case of emergency.
In fact, Zhang Wei really wanted to eat a Qi-Reinforced Pill and throw it away another magic talisman, so that he would not be bullied by this shameless master. But he could not do this. After all, he just came here and was not familiar with everything. There must be other monks in such a large county town. With his current situation, it is okay to scare ordinary warriors. If he meets a monk, he is purely seeking death.
Besides, he was with Ajuan with him. Even if he left here and left, Ajuan who stayed behind was in trouble. As the master said just now, Ajuan was helpless here. As a weak woman with a pretty appearance, the situation would not be much better when she came here.
So Zhang Wei had to temporarily compromise and give in, huì 1ù this master.
A ingot of silver is enough to spend a few months in this county town.
After collecting money, he collected two other good camels. The master patted his head and said, "By the way, the number Ding Qi seems to be full, you should go to the number A mine." After that, the master looked at Ajuan and said, "You are so ugly, then go to the water room."
Working in a water room, not only does it boil water every day, but also does it as a responsible person for washing clothes. It is still a chore.
After hearing this, Zhang Wei stuffed all the remaining silver in his pocket to his master.
The master weighed the money and said with a smile: "Oh, I remembered that the water house is full. Or how about you go to Fengweiju to be a cook?"
After hearing this, Zhang Wei nodded. Being a cook should be good. After all, the old saying goes, you can’t starve to death for three years of severe drought.
After the matter was decided, Zhang Wei and Ajuan registered in the government office respectively. At this point, Zhang Wei finally helped Ajuan escape from the status of exiled miserables.
"I'll go to the mine first, take care of yourself." Zhang Wei said to Ajuan.
After hearing this, Ajuan nodded, but said nothing.
Zhang Wei smiled bitterly. It seemed that Ajuan still didn't want to say anything to him unless it was necessary.
