2466 The entire village mobiliation_1
Tang Zhen estimated the time and realized that it would not be an easy task to get to the severed head Ridge in a short period of time.
The road was hundreds of miles long. Even if he traveled day and night, he would need a long time to reach it.
In an environment that was close to its primitive form, it was completely crazy to travel a thousand miles. The high mountains were enough to swallow countless travelers.
Tang Zhen also didn’t know if there were cultivators from Lou Cheng descending near severed head Ridge. If that was the case, wouldn’t he have made a wasted trip?
He could appear directly in ghost city, a monster’s lair, so why couldn’t the other cultivators teleport to severed head Ridge?
However, Tang Zhen did not have a choice. Regardless of the outcome, Tang Zhen would definitely not give up as long as there was a trace of possibility!
Buttface didn’t have any complaints. Perhaps he had already been prepared to suffer from the very beginning.
It was not an easy task to travel at night. Even if there was a ready-made road, it was still uneven when they walked.
In order to make it easier to travel at night, ergou lit a special oil lamp and hung it on the horn of the horned beast.
Although it wasn’t very bright, it was enough to travel at night.
Tang Zhen sat on the back of the swaying horned beast. However, he was continuously pondering in his heart on how he could arrive at severed head mountain ridge as soon as possible.
After thinking for a while, Tang Zhen looked at ergou.
I remember you once said that the village you lived in was close to the mountains. Is that true? ”
Hearing Tang Zhen’s question, er Gou immediately nodded his head, indicating that it was indeed the case.
“Let’s follow this path. Is it closer to your village or is it closer to severed head Ridge?”
Hearing Tang Zhen’s question, er Gou said that the village was closer, while the severed head Ridge was even further away.
sharpening a knife will not delay the work of cutting wood. Let’s go to your village first. I have something to do.
After hearing Tang Zhen’s instructions, although er Gou was suspicious, he still nodded and agreed.
For the following time, they naturally traveled day and night.
A few days later, a huge mountain appeared in front of them.
The mountain peaks in this world were very unique. They were scattered randomly like islands on the sea, and there were no mountain ranges connecting them.
They suddenly appeared and disappeared without any pattern.
There were three villages built around this majestic mountain, and ergou lived in one of them.
When he arrived at the village entrance riding on his horned beast, the children and villagers immediately gathered around to watch ergou return home.
“Ergou, didn’t you go out to get a wife? why did you come back so soon?”
you’re dressed so impressively. You’re carrying a saber and riding a horned beast. Did you make a fortune? ”
who’s with you? he looks like a noble. Is he your master? ”
The villagers who hadn’t gone up the mountain or down the field would occasionally draw er Gou’s side to ask about him, secretly inquiring about Tang Zhen.
They were extremely envious. They had never thought that the most useless er Gou would actually be attached to a noble person!
One had to know that just three horned beasts was a considerable amount of wealth, and ordinary families could not afford to raise them at all.
Buttface had never enjoyed such treatment before, so he was naturally very happy. He recalled the noble people he had seen before and subconsciously imitated them.
“All of you move aside, don’t block my way!”
After pretending to roar at the surrounding villagers, ergou looked at Tang Zhen and led the way with a face full of smiles.
“Quickly go and tell my brother that there is an important guest at the door. Quickly clean up the house!”
As Buttface spoke, he took out a few small coins from his pocket and threw them to the child beside him.
Although he felt a little pained, he felt extremely excited when he saw the respectful eyes of the villagers around him.
In a poor village like theirs, the villagers basically had not seen much money. Most of the time, they bartered.
Now that he had casually given away money and driven people to do things, he would definitely become a legend in the mouths of the villagers. When they talked about it, their faces would be full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Er Gou, who was illiterate, didn’t know the idiom ‘return home in glory’, but he still felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Tang Zhen didn’t say anything. He only followed behind er Gou and advanced along the narrow path that was filled with feces.
In such a backward and closed place, one should not expect to see any beautiful scenery. There were only broken houses and villagers in ragged clothes that emitted a strange smell. They looked at you with awe and rejection.
Tang Zhen did not care about the gazes of the villagers. He was only concerned about what he wanted. Ever since he entered the village, he had been constantly looking for it.
Just as he was thinking, he heard ergou call him big brother. Then, he dragged a man with a face full of vicissitudes and bowed respectfully to Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen nodded his head. Er Gou’s big brother was different from him. He should be a true farmer.
The name was also very simple. It was called big dog.
There were two women standing behind him. One of them was the big dog’s wife. She was a very simple and shy woman. She didn’t even dare to raise her head when she saw Tang Zhen.
The other was er Gou’s younger sister. Her character was very similar to her second brother. At this time, she was staring with her big eyes, secretly sizing up Tang Zhen, this noble.
Behind the house not far away, there were three small heads peeking out. They seemed to have not washed their faces for a long time, so their faces and necks were black and shiny.
“Your Excellency, this is my big brother’s house. How about we rest here first?”
Er Gou looked at Tang Zhen and asked in a questioning tone.
there’s no hurry to rest. Do you still remember what I said on the way? if possible, I hope that you can execute it immediately.
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, er Gou nodded his head. Then, he found a man in the crowd. He was the village chief.
After hearing er Gou’s introduction, the village chief looked at Tang Zhen with even more respect. Compared to the other villagers, this village chief, who had a bit of knowledge, could see that Tang Zhen was extraordinary.
don’t worry, Sir. I’ll definitely do your bidding well!
The village chief came in front of Tang Zhen and spoke in a respectful tone. It was obvious that he wanted to leave a good impression in front of the noble.
“Do it well, I won’t mistreat you.”
As Tang Zhen spoke, he took out a gold coin from his pocket and then showed the village chief more gold coins.
Then, under the village chief’s shocked gaze, he split the gold coin in half, giving one half to the village chief and the other half to the big dog.
“Take it, this is your meeting gift!”
The village head was so excited that his entire body was trembling. He quickly thanked Tang Zhen because with this half a gold coin, his youngest son would have enough money to start a family.
The big dog was confused. It didn’t know what Tang Zhen had given it. After hearing the value of the gold coins from er Gou, it was so excited that it wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Tang Zhen.
alright, I don’t want to waste any more time. If you can complete the mission as soon as possible, I will give you more rewards.
After Tang Zhen finished speaking, he walked into the courtyard. He asked ergou to find someone to build a pergola and start preparing for the next work.
It was easy to do things with money. All the men, women, old, and young in the village were mobilized. Some were responsible for chopping wood to build a pergola, while others searched for the materials Tang Zhen needed and sent them to the big dog’s house continuously.
They would get paid after being busy, which made the villagers even more excited and full of energy.
After everything was ready, Tang Zhen began to work. He ordered people to get wood and cut it according to the drawings.
The villagers had never done such work before. At first, they were very slow, but after getting used to it, they slowly became faster.
Some people were in charge of carving the wood, while others were in charge of collecting the plants and animal skins that Tang Zhen needed. They then placed them into the stone pot that Tang Zhen had chopped with his long sword and continuously boiled them. The entire village was filled with a strange smell.
After the entire village was mobilized, they were busy for nearly ten days before a strange object appeared in front of everyone.
