Chapter 753 Change
Chapter 753 Change
One hundred thousand mountains are endless.
Because of the terrain, there has been no unified kingdom here since ancient times.
They are all independent villages.
Humans and demons coexist here.
Because the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are many demons, ghosts, beasts that have become spirits, and other strange things in the deep mountains and old forests.
Anyway, nothing is surprising to see here.
Fighting between villages is common.
The battles between the monsters and wild beasts in the village and in the mountains happened every day.
But a hundred years ago, a man named Yiha appeared.
He led his own village to expand from the south to the north, and grew stronger step by step.
In the end, one hundred thousand mountains were unified.
Although the various villages hidden in the depths only respect him as their leader in name, this is already the first step for Shiwandashan in a thousand years.
The name Yiha is very prestigious in Shiwandashan. Even children who have just learned to speak know this name...
The connections between the various villages are closer, and there is no longer such obvious anti-foreign resistance.
Although there are occasional small frictions between them, large-scale conflicts rarely break out.
Therefore, when Li Pingan and Lao Niu re-entered Shiwanda Mountain, they discovered two completely different landscapes from when they first arrived here.
"Buzz~"
The sounds of cicadas, songbirds and various insects are transmitted to the ears through the gaps in leaves and grass.
The little girl patted her ears, opened her eyes, and looked in the direction of the source of the sound.
Then he turned his head and grabbed the fishing rod with his little hands.
Staring unblinkingly at the water.
"Be quiet."
The voice of great peace came from beside me.
"Hmm~"
The little girl turned her head to look at him, then turned her head back.
gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The water surface suddenly bubbled.
Li Ping'an opened his eyes and said to the cat: "As long as the fairy is patient, he will catch the fish."
Just as he was talking, a few pebbles fell into the water.
The fish was frightened and ran away.
Several boys wearing village costumes stood by the river, staring at Li Ping'an warily.
"Who are you! Why are you here to catch fish?"
Li Ping'an glanced at the fish with pity, but he was not angry at all.
"We are foreign travelers. We didn't know this river was your river before."
"Businessman?" one of the older children asked doubtfully.
In recent years, many caravans have come to Shiwandashan.
Especially when Yiha unified this place and provided a relatively safe and stable environment.
Whenever a caravan comes, they always bring something that the children have never seen before.
Sometimes I would help the merchant move something, or just sit next to him.
You can get a few pieces of exquisite candy or other novel items.
So for these children, the day when foreign businessmen arrived in the village was even more joyful than the holidays.
"I am a traveler." Li Ping'an said.
The child nodded thoughtfully.
Yes, the merchants are all in groups and the carriages are even together with no end in sight.
But this man only brought one cow.
Li Ping'an looked at the vigilant expressions of several children, lowered his head and said to the little girl.
"Do you still have the fairy's marzipan?"
The little girl raised her head and looked at him, then at the children, as if she had guessed what Li Ping'an was going to do.
He reached out to cover the marzipan in his pocket, as if he wanted to lie.
However, he stammered, "Fairies...fairies...are gone, not even one!"
Li Pingan stared at her.
The little girl took a deep breath and finally took out the almond paste from her pocket.
Li Ping'an took the almond paste and went to greet a few children.
The children were a little wary at first, but soon ran over and tried to eat.
As soon as his eyes lit up, he was all clear after a while.
"Can you take us to your village?" Li Ping'an took the opportunity to ask.
These children are quite moral and know that food should not be eaten for free.
After learning that Li Ping'an came from the Sui Dynasty, these children relaxed a little more vigilance.
The most frequent caravans in recent years came from the Sui Dynasty.
After walking for more than an hour, we saw the entire village in the distance.
The blue-tiled houses are stacked one after another, one after another, and one after another.
The roads in the village extend in all directions, like blood vessels in the body.
The house is built against the mountain, and the upper floors are made of wood and bamboo materials for pillars, floors and walls.
The lower level is supported by wooden pillars, forming stilts.
The first floor is used to house livestock or farm tools, and the second floor is used for living.
The third layer is used to store grain, which can also avoid damage by snakes, insects and moisture.
The entire village is like a paradise surrounded by mountains.
Compared with before, the road leading to the outside world has become more tidy.
After asking, I found out that the width of the entire road in Shiwandashan was uniformly specified, similar to the system of cars on the same track during the Qin Dynasty.
It will better facilitate communication between villages and make management easier.
Li Ping'an is quite happy to see the people living in Shiwandashan live a better life.
Rather than being immersed in the fighting and fighting between the villages all day long.
Now it seems that it is only a mere hundred years.
The barbarian land that Confucian students considered unteachable was already a prosperous scene.
The people in the village seemed to have long been accustomed to outsiders wearing strange clothes.
This season is also the time when caravans flock to the place.
So I just took another look.
There is a large bowl of herbal tea unique to the village sold on the roadside.
This was not the case in the past. Only during the season when caravans should appear in the village would there be vendors selling herbal tea.
Those foreign businessmen were generous and willing to drink a bowl of herbal tea when they were thirsty.
But the price was a bit ridiculous, so I had to exchange some items for three bowls of herbal tea.
While Li Pingan was sipping herbal tea, he asked the tea seller about Shiwandashan.
Then I heard that today's Shiwandashan was unified by a man named Yiha.
Li Ping'an was slightly startled and frowned, as if he had thought of something.
"Old Niu, this name sounds so familiar."
"Moo!"
Lao Niu reminded him.
Only then did Li Ping'an think back to the little kid who was no taller than his knees at that time.
I couldn't help but smile, feeling like I had just passed by history.
I can say with emotion, time flies so fast.
The guy was still chattering about Iha's achievements, which contained some bragging elements.
