() Xiaorou followed closely behind Wu Jian panting, but Wu Jian didn't notice or ignored it. .He didn't stop until he reached a field—it should be a field. At this time, Wu Jian was already far away from the city.

Wu Jian finally stopped, and Xiaorou was able to rest her hands on her knees. It was not an easy task to keep up with Wu Jian.But Wu Jian didn't give her time to rest. He just looked around and walked towards the field. Of course, Xiaorou could only follow behind. Fortunately, Wu Jian was not walking fast at this time.

There are no crops in the field, the land is exposed to the air, and the cracks make it clear that the land has not been moistened for a long time.In fact, what I saw along the way was the same scene, and I don't know if Effie noticed it.Or there was nothing she could do about it, and she had more important things to do.

Wu Jian looked around again. Except for some scattered and tenacious dry weeds, there was not even a single person here. It can be said to be a wilderness.But Wu Jian could still see that the signs of human activities were still very clear, maybe an old man would come over every day and sigh.Following such traces, Wu Jian walked over.

After walking for a while, Wu Jian saw a small village and estimated the distance. It was not far from the city.

At the entrance of the village, an old man is sitting there basking in the sun (guess), a little boy is doing something not far away, but with his back to Wu Jian, Wu Jian is too lazy to see what he is doing .

Seeing Wu Jian and Xiaorou, two people dressed as nobles, approaching, the old man stood up slowly, but Wu Jian could tell that the old man was guarding them.It seems that the nobles in this world are also notorious.

"grandfather!"

The little boy ran over, and the old man hugged him all at once.Wu Jian could tell that the little boy was a little scared, but he was scared, and his eyes revealed that if Wu Jian dared to do anything, he would bite him unceremoniously.

Walking in front of the old man, Wu Jian spoke first, "Old man, the two of us went out to play and forgot to bring something to eat, can you sell us something?"

At this kind of time and this kind of place, would someone come out to play?And the young couple who didn't bring anything, did they run away from home?The old man speculated for a while, but also cursed in his heart - this is the nobleman, good-looking novel:. .

"My lord, please wait here for a while, the old man will go get it right away."

Rare food can't be bought with money. Although the old man was reluctant, he still walked back slowly to get the food, otherwise he didn't know what would happen.

After the old people and children left, Wu Jian scanned the whole village and found that there were only a few old and weak women and children left here, but the signs of life showed that the labor force still lived here, maybe something big happened today or tomorrow left.

Wu Jian waited for a while, and then walked into the village, but after Wu Jian and Xiaorou walked to the village, which might be a gathering place, they happened to meet an old man and a child holding a few buns and the like.

"My lord!? I want my lord to come and get it in person. I really deserve to die!"

The old man said in trepidation, bowing continuously while speaking.

"It's okay, old man. I just want to sit here for a while. Please sit down too."

Wu Jian took the lead in sitting on a stone chair, and the old man quickly handed over the food he was holding, and said, "My lord, this is all I have at home."

The old man offered the food with both hands in fear, with his head lowered and his hands trembling slightly, for fear that Wu Jian would be dissatisfied.

But Wu Jian didn't come here to eat, so how could he be dissatisfied?After taking two, Wu Jian threw one of them back, and Xiao Rou hurriedly took it.Then Wu Jian flipped his hand, and a shiny golden coin appeared in his hand, and he threw it to the old man.

The old man didn't dare to be negligent, and after he took it in a panic, he showed a panicked expression, and once again offered the coin with trembling hands. .

"My lord, it's just two buns, it's not worth so much!"

"You just accept it, anyway, this kind of thing is like a stone on the side of the road to me. Besides, I also have questions to ask you."

Wu Jian tore open the wowotou and played with it bit by bit, ignoring his trembling hands.After holding it for a while, seeing Wu Jian's expression that he would not accept it anymore, the old man no longer forced it, but put the gold coins away properly and said to Wu Jian: "If you have anything to ask, sir, I will definitely answer it." .”

"Then I ask you, is this your staple food?—I mean always."

"Yes, we have grown up eating this kind of crops for generations, and we can only grow this kind of thing here. If the usual harvest is good, we can still make decent food, but this year's drought is too severe , and can only use stocks to make this kind of food that is easy to preserve. My lord, this, isn't this to your liking?"

The old man trembled. In fact, he didn’t even need to ask to know that this kind of food was impossible for the nobles to eat. He thought that Wu Jian asked this to blame him, and his knees gave up in fright.But he didn't fall or kneel, he just felt something soft supporting him, but he wouldn't understand what it was.

"It's really not to my taste." Wu Jian replied honestly, and then threw the corned bun that had been torn off only a small part to the little boy who was watching eagerly with his finger in his mouth, and said, "Here you are."

Since it was the food bestowed by the noble lord, the little boy who was already sensible was not polite, he just grabbed it and gnawed it.Faced with Wu Jian's move, the old man, who was so frightened that he almost had a heart attack, couldn't care about his children anymore.

Seeing the inner activities of the old man at this moment, Wu Jian immediately asked: "I have another question, and you have to answer it honestly. Besides this kind of crops, what else do you grow?"

"There are also spices and fruit trees, but even if there is a good harvest, the yield is very small, so they are all handed over," the old man replied hastily.

"Well, take out a little of everything you grow - there should be seeds left? And all the food you eat, whether it's plants or meat, take out a little, just a little, I have something to ask You, these are the rewards for answering my questions."

After speaking, Wu Jian pretended to take out a money bag from behind and handed it to the old man.After receiving the heavy money bag, although the old man was prepared, he was blinded by a burst of golden light when he opened it, and let go of his hand without paying attention, and the golden coins also spilled on the ground.

"This this!"

The old man's breathing became short of breath. He had never seen so many gold coins before—or he had never seen gold coins. When he thought that he had taken so many gold coins in his hand and dropped them, the old man's heart beat wildly.But with Wu Jian around, nothing would happen to him.But he was afraid that something would happen to him again, so Wu Jian asked him to get his things ready first, and left the gold coins on the ground first.

"Well, did you conjure this up?"

Xiao Rou, who has never left Wu Jian, and even changed her clothes for her (although she was played with), knows very well that Wu Jian does not have any gold coins on him, so how did these gold coins come from?Could it be some kind of blindfold?

"Even if it was created by me, it is still pure gold."

This is the first time (except when we met) that Xiaorou took the initiative to talk to Wu Jian other than "yes". Wu Jian can also see that Xiaorou is worried about the elderly, and Wu Jian's words to Xiaorou are also soft Not a lot.

Soon, the old man called all the old grandpas and nainai out and took out all the things. Wu Jian smiled and shook his head when he saw how these old people were walking like flying and carrying all the things.

"Big, my lord."

They are always old. When the old people put things in front of Wu Jian, they were already out of breath, and some of them even twisted their waists.

After that, Wu Jian started to ask questions, mainly about the things they planted.For example, what kind of pests and weeds are there, and what is the ecology like.As for meat, what kind of animals and fish do you catch, where do you live, and some ecological issues.There is also what is useful to them in the wild and what is harmful to them.Although there won't be any professional answers, the answers of these people who have given everything to survive are enough for Wu Jian to understand.And some of them, there are real objects in front of our eyes.

"So, thank you very much. Let's go."

After asking the question he wanted to ask, Wu Jian left as soon as he said it, regardless of how they divided the gold coins.But when he reached the entrance of the village, the old man from before stopped Wu Jian.

"My lord, may I ask a question?"

"Ask." Wu Jian said with his back to the old man.

"Is your lord here to investigate?"

Investigate what?The old man didn't explain, and naturally the common people in this world don't have any concept of ecological survey.

Wu Jian turned his head, looked at the old man and asked, "Where are all the young people here?"

"This, this..." The old man took a few steps back as if frightened. He lowered his head in a retreat, not daring to look at Wu Jian.But after thinking about it for a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, looked at Wu Jian and said, "A few days ago, a foreigner came to our village. When I was young, I went to a big city. The accent of that person was similar to what I have seen before." The foreigners in our village are very similar. And the children in our village are all good children, they are only deceived because they are sad this year! So adults must save them!"

As for what the old man was talking about, from the heart of the man before, Wu Jian already knew very well.But he didn't give any guarantee, he just looked ahead and said, "This is not for me to decide."

After finishing speaking, Wu Jian ignored the old man and knelt down, and left without looking back.Xiao Rou looked at the old man and then at Wu Jian, but in the end she followed Wu Jian as she wanted to help the old man—she couldn't do anything.
