4 Zhuqi County
The sky has just dawned.
Ye Qin shouted at the big cow who was still sleeping in a daze. When the sun was not bad in the morning, he hurriedly followed the post road to Zhuqi County. Da Niu ate meat bones and drank some water last night. He was obviously much better and could walk by himself.
On the way, Ye Qin told Da Niu to go to the county to see if he could be recruited into the medicine collection hall. Da Niu was very excited and agreed to go to the county.
Although it is in the wilderness, there is a post road leading to Zhuqi County, and occasionally you can see some carriages, so it is not difficult to walk along the way.
At noon, the sun was scorching. They found a place to rest and dug some bark and grass roots.
It was a little cooler in the afternoon, and the two continued to drive.
Before that evening, two thin figures appeared outside the east gate of Zhuqi County.
Zhuqi County is the most desolate and remote of the eight counties in Pingzhou, Wuguo, with a population of more than 100,000 people. Within a thousand miles of the county, there are more than a dozen small towns, and most of the rest are deep mountains and old ditches, steep peaks, rivers and streams.
The grain output of this place is not high, but there are a large number of rare wild medicinal herbs growing in the deep mountains. The herbs in Zhuqi County are very famous throughout Pingzhou. Zhuqi County has naturally become one of the important sources of wild medicinal materials of the Medicine King Gang. A medicine collection hall was specially set up here to collect medicine.
This year's drought has not reduced the number of foreign people coming to Zhuqi County. There are carriages entering and leaving the gate one by one, people in the world carrying swords, merchants with backpacks, and juggling people, farmers and woodcutters. It's so lively.
In particular, the matter of recruiting a group of medicine boys in the medicine collection hall has been unconsciously spread in some nearby towns. Some rural people bring their own children to apply to see if they can eat in the medicine collection hall.
Ye Qin saw it shining in the sunset. The low wall of the county is full of grass and vines. The gate of the dilapidated city. Guarding the door were a few lazy and down-and-out people. Excited in my heart. He came back to this place again.
"Drive! Get out of the way. Things that don't have eyes!"
A donkey cart pulled by two young donkeys. He trotted to the gate. The car was sitting with a 60 or 70-year-old sage. Dressed in a well-dressed coat. He has a oxtail whip in his hand. He shouted at Ye Qin, who was in the way.
The donkey cart runs fast. I almost bumped Ye Qin into each other.
Ye Qin quickly pulled the bull aside to hide.
In the carriage. A chubby teenager suddenly poked out his head. The face of a sentry is slippery. My eyes turned around. I saw Ye Qin and the two of them. "Boh" immediately. A mouthful of water spit on Ye Qin and the two of them. Then he grind and clapped his hands and laughed. I got it. I got it! Dad. ( The whole text is small???,? In ар.16κ.(1(6)κ.. Text.? W?) See it? I vomited two skin dogs!" The sentry didn't even look at Ye Qin. I just praised the little fat man.
The little donkey cart then stopped near the gate of the city, and the city did not check and let them into the city.
Ye Qin stared at the little fat man fiercely, and then lowered his head quickly. He dared to be angry and dared not say anything. He bit his lips and endured it. In the countryside, the rural gentry is very strong, occupying the most and best fields, the most mountains and forests, and raising many servants and slaves. All the tenants and hunters rely on them to eat a bite of food. He and Cheng Da Niu were both rural hunters and tenants, and they dared not offend these sentry at all.
It's just that Ye Qin once followed his father up the mountain to fight the jackal. He was a little wild and dared to stare at the little fat man. Cheng Da Niu didn't even dare to stare. He kept buried his head. When the donkey cart entered the city, he dared to wipe the saliva off his face.
When he encountered such an unfortunate thing, Ye Qin was not interested in looking at the scenery of the gate again.
Wandering in the crowd, Ye Qin and Da Niu sneaked into the city.
On this hot day, Chengding will only ask a few questions to those strange men, but they are not in the mood to care about a few shabby children who sneak into the city.
"Brother Qin, I haven't been here for a few months. I didn't expect that the county town is still the same. It's really big and beautiful."
Da Niu shouted excitedly.
There are two magnificent main streets across the whole county. The stores and shops on both sides are the property of large families, many of which are still from medicine collection halls. Restaurant, teahouse, inn, martial arts hall, academy, mansion, forest garden, one next to the other.
The northeast urban area is the county government. Some sentry, local tycoons, big businessmen and rich households live in this district. The northwest urban area is the entrance of the medicine collection hall, as well as some other powerful and small gangs. The remaining two urban areas in the southeast and southwest are mainly civilian areas, and the ordinary residents of Zhuqi County are in these two urban areas.
In the evening, the weather gradually cooled down. Residents came out of their homes, went shopping, did business, and the city began to be lively. It's so popular here that you can't see half a person in the middle of the day like in the wilderness.
Before entering the city, Ye Qin was also as excited as a big cow.
But after entering the city, Ye Qin was not excited, but became more and more cautious. A few months ago, they offended a group of hooligans here. Who knows that these hooligans are still not thinking about them.
Ye Qin took Da Niu, carefully avoided those who looked like hooligans and scoundrels, did not look at the busy streets, and buried his head and walked quickly to the northwest city. Seeing some local beggars, they didn't dare to stop and hurriedly trotted over to avoid being pestered and scolded.
On the way, I met several scoundrels coming towards them, which scared him a long time and ran to the northwest city quickly. Those scoundrels dared not chase them again.
In the northwest urban area, there are much fewer people, and few civilians appear here.
Most of them are people in the world who wear tight clothes, cross knives and swords, ride horses, have strong skills, and are burly. Just by looking at their appearance, I know that it is very difficult to mess with, and any one of them can pinch them to death.
Because of the large number of people in the world, few scoundrels and beggars appear in the northwest urban area.
Fortunately, these people are always in a hurry and seem to be busy doing big things. They don't like to waste time bullying beggars like hooligans. They have no interest in beggars and won't look at them at a glance.
Ye Qin and the two came to the door of the medicine collection hall. This is a huge house, covering several hectares. From the outside, I don't know if it is big inside. The two thousand-pound stone lions in front of the door are majestic. A pair of copper rings on the gate are extremely heavy.
An announcement was posted at the door, what was written, but Ye Qin didn't know any of the words above.
