Chapter 969

Wu You's working ability is still good. Within a few days, he found an old carriage with good quality. It has good sealing performance and small space, but it's no problem to sit with three or four of them.

In particular, he and Tao are still children and do not occupy a place. Wu you has to drive a car, and the carriage is still empty.

More than a hundred miles away, they arrived in three days. Gu Zheng was three days early. The big market still has three days to start. Even if this is not the case, many people have come to the big market.

There is a town under Mount mang. The big market is held in this town. Those who come early have rented the farmers in the town, and many people sleep directly on the ground. At this time, most of the people who come here are selling things. They come in advance to occupy a good position in advance.

After the big market began, there were four or five miles of street full of vendors. The street in the town was not enough, and both sides extended a lot. People with experience know that the closer the position is to the middle, the better. There are enough people there, and the greater the possibility of exchange or sale.

At this time, some people have started trading. Gu Zheng didn't come forward. He just asked Wu to swim out and have a look. They live in a place ten miles outside the village. It's not a forest, it's just a small mound. However, if you don't go in and have a look, you won't find anyone living here.

Gu Zheng made two tents, one for Aunt Cui and one for him and Taotao. As for Wu you, he let him sleep on the carriage. The cloth these days is not cheap. It is a very valuable thing and can even be used as money. Gu Zheng doesn't need good cloth. Wu You changed some coarse cloth to make these two tents.

In this way, it also used a lot of things. Before coming, Gu Zheng rode a horse to hunt a lot of things. Now there are eight porcupine skins, including tiger skin, leopard skin, cow leather, various bones, dried meat, and two silver ingots. These are the wealth accumulated by Gu Zheng during this period.

This wealth was used to exchange what he needed at the big market.

As long as he likes it, he must win it. Even if others don't sell it, he will. Now is not the time to talk about benevolence and righteousness, especially there is a big monster behind it. At this time, in order to improve his strength, we must do anything.

Of course, it's OK to buy and sell by force. Gu Zheng won't kill. He still has his own bottom line. If he can succeed in cultivation in the future, he will compensate them. In short, he must find enough things to improve his cultivation this time.

Up to now, Gu Zheng has failed to break through. He is at the bottom of his heart and is afraid of eating.

He is also afraid of guzheng, but this fear is completely different. He says it is fear, rather than awe. It is a real fear of Taotao. How to say, guzheng gives him the feeling that although it looks small, it is thoughtful. Communicating with guzheng is completely like facing adults, and it is still a very powerful adult.

Taotao is different. He is a real and pure child. You can't figure out the mind of a child, and he is moody. Therefore, he is afraid of Taotao, even fear. If he can't be with Taotao, he won't be together. He always tries to avoid him.

Aunt Cui is fine. After all, she has taken care of them for some time and knows Tao's temperament. Tao is still a good child as long as you follow him. She is easy to coax, but she is not as mature as Gu Zheng.

Cui Shen as like as two peas, and two children who were exactly alike, were so poor. How could she not think of this? There is a consciousness among two children who is a strong saint.

Three days later, the big market started on time. Before dawn, the whole town had become a sea of people. This was just the beginning. There were more people coming, and some late people. When the big market was the busiest, that is, on the fifth and sixth days, the number of people was at least half more than now.

"How lively!"

Seeing so many people, Tao seemed very excited. Aunt Cui and Wu you kept looking around. Gu Zheng was the only one who was very calm. There were many people in such a market, but he had seen a better market and could not attract his great interest.

He went to the big market just to collect what he needed.

"I want to eat this!"

As soon as he took two steps, Tao pointed to something similar to sugar gourd and shouted. It was similar to sugar gourd. It was in clusters, but the color was black and there was no sugar. It was not tied on the round haystack, but directly placed there.

"Worry free fruit is very delicious. Would you like some!"

When the stall operators saw them, they immediately said something with a smile. Their eyes narrowed out of sight.

After observing the eyes of the ancient people, Wu you immediately came forward and asked about the price of the fruit, and soon reached a deal. In the early days of the flood and famine, although there were coins such as gold, silver and copper money in the places where human beings lived, the quantity was small, and most of them were used in cities. 80% of this rural market was barter. Wu you was very experienced in this aspect, Gu Zheng is very relieved.

Wu You changed two clusters of fruit, both in the hands of Taotao. Gu Zheng was not interested in this kind of fruit, but the taste of the fruit was OK and the quality reached ordinary. It's OK to eat as a snack.

Unlike the earth, at the beginning of the flood and famine, ordinary food materials can be seen everywhere, even there are many medium-sized ones, only excellent and advanced ones are few, and there are relatively few second-class and low-grade ones. The ancient dispute between garbage and toxic food materials has not been seen. The environment here is very good and there is no pollution. It is difficult to produce garbage food materials unless it is deliberately destroyed.

Taoshi was happy to eat, while Gu Zheng took them and walked slowly in the crowd.

There are a wide range of goods on both sides, including food, such as eggs and all kinds of meat. At present, the villagers have some livestock and poultry. These things are many in the big market. Some people usually save them and go to the big market every year to exchange some other things they need.

Besides food, most of them are all kinds of tools.

Farming, hunting, breeding, and even building houses. There are many tools for household use. There are also various raw materials, such as iron, wood, and even stone. They are very rich. In addition, all kinds of seeds can also be classified as tools. After all, no one will eat them when they buy seeds. They have to wait for a good harvest.

Aunt Cui sees most of these things. She has only heard of many things and has never seen them. This time she has seen a lot.

These two categories account for more than half of the goods, and the rest are all kinds of things.

There are also cloth and silk, but few. Cloth and silk can be used as money in this place, so they are not exchanged alone. Most of them take them to see what they want, and there are fewer finished clothes. At least Gu Zheng hasn't seen them yet. However, Wu you heard before that some people will sell clothes, but they don't sell new clothes, but old clothes.

Besides clothes, there are various kinds of jewelry, which also appear here, but the price is very high. It is generally in the center and will not appear on the edge. Because of its high value, in order to prevent someone from murdering, several people mostly sell such things, and there will not be only one person to set up a stall.

In addition to these categories, the rest are all kinds of small things, including beautiful stones obtained from the wild, and some people take some things with low residual value here after hunting. I hope someone will like them and exchange them for useful things, which is better than throwing them there.

There is also a small number of herbs, that is, all kinds of herbs.

Although the medical skills in the early days of the famine were not very high, herbal medicines have appeared. However, most of them do not know the properties of these herbs. A few of them are very common. However, some people sell them. As long as one of these herbs has saved people, no matter what disease others have, they will want to use it. At this time, their understanding of the properties is not so deep.

This situation reminds Gu Zheng of a person. Shennong in Chinese mythology doesn't know whether Shennong has appeared. It seems that it hasn't yet. Even if it has not been spread here, Shennong has determined the properties of various drugs after tasting hundreds of herbs. After that, herbal medicine can be reasonably applied, and the industry of doctors has gradually emerged.

These herbs are one of the goals of ancient debate.

There are some herbs that he can use. Many of them are actually herbs. As long as he sees someone selling herbs, he will pay attention and observe whether they are what he needs.

In addition to herbal medicine, what Gu Zheng saw most was all kinds of food, not meat and grain, but those gadgets, such as worry free fruit eaten before eating. There may also be what he needed in such things, so he should also observe more.

Finally, there are those strange things. There may be something that can be used in these things. Even if you can make a magic instrument without food repair, it's better to be an immortal instrument. Unfortunately, he can't forge an immortal instrument. A good immortal instrument can improve a person's strength a lot and even kill people beyond his level.

There were many treasures before the ancient struggle. I know the importance of having good weapons.

"No, I want it!"

Taotao, who had been walking hand in hand by Gu Zheng, suddenly broke away and raised his hands to indicate that he had eaten both clusters of fruits just now. He didn't have a good time and wanted to continue eating.

"Go to the front and I'll find you something better later!"

Gu Zheng smiled. No matter what happens to Tao, at least he is now a child or a child connected with his blood. Gu Zheng had no brothers and sisters or children before. Tao is not only his brother, but also like his own children.

Gu Zheng's doting on Taotao is more than one.

Aunt Cui and Wu you said privately that these two people sometimes don't look like brothers, but like father and son. In addition, Gu Zheng didn't say who they are, but privately, they all think Gu Zheng is a brother and Tao is a brother, which is completely based on their performance.

"OK, it must be delicious!"

Tao nodded at once. He was very excited. He had never seen so many people and so many vendors. He felt very novel everywhere.

Walking slowly, the day soon lit up and people became more. Almost all people were crowded. Aunt Cui and Wu you closely followed Gu Zheng behind them for fear of being crowded and dispersed by the crowd.

In fact, many adults lose their children in the big market every year. If they are lucky, someone will help to take them in and watch them. If they can find them later, if they are unlucky, the children will never be seen. No one knows where they have gone. At this time, no one abducts and sells children, but someone can't stand it. Someone likes your children and takes them back to raise them by themselves.

Of course, poor people won't do this, but it's possible for people with a little foundation. Now the survival rate of children is not high. Even if they have a family foundation and have no children, they exist, but only a few.

"Wu you, go and change that back!"

After a short walk, seeing aunt Cui staring at a sewing vendor, Gu Zheng smiled and asked Wu you to change a suit.

Aunt Cui has her own sewing and sewing. He sews everything at home, but she left in a hurry last time. She didn't take any of these things with her. Now she doesn't have them. This is also Gu Zheng's responsibility.

Wu you quickly changed back to a set of superior bone needles. At this time, bone needles are the mainstream, and iron needles are also available, but not many. They can only be used in large families in the city. Although they are only made of bones, the bones are very hard, and the quality of needles is also very good.

Aunt Cui used to have bone needles. There are also good and second place between bone needles. This set is obviously better than the previous one. It has a large number and a more complete variety. Aunt Cui happily took it over. She picked up one for a while, looked at it for a while, and then took another for a while. She didn't stop.

Aunt Cui didn't have any wishes. It used to be good. She had a husband, father-in-law and mother-in-law at home. Although the two children born in front failed, her family never blamed her. At that time, she felt very happy and just wanted to try to have another child. It's best to have a boy to make the family happy.

Unfortunately, a disaster has completely changed her family.

Especially after the death of her mother-in-law, some people in her father-in-law's family still wanted to drive her away. If the young people who came back didn't work hard to protect her, she might have been driven away. Those people thanked her father-in-law for his sacrifice of life and protection, and would not let others bully him a widow anyway.

It is precisely because of the existence of these people that Aunt Cui, a widow, can always live in the village.

In recent years, some people have asked her to remarry, but she refused. She thought her heart was dead, but unexpectedly, after the villagers sent Gu Zheng and Tao that day, her heart seemed to live again. She didn't know who and where the family of the two children were, but she only wanted to take good care of the two children. Maybe the two children awakened her maternal love.

Sometimes she wondered if it was because her first two children had failed. God had mercy on her and sent her two more children.

Because of this, when the immortal sermon came, she did not hesitate to give her qualification to exchange for a lot of wealth to the two children, hoping that they would have a better future in the future. However, she didn't expect that the immortal sermon was a fraud and almost hurt the two children.

But also because of this, let her know that these two children are not ordinary people at all, but powerful immortals.

In her eyes, Gu Zheng is already an immortal. She doesn't know the significance of cultivating into an immortal at all. She doesn't know that she can be called an immortal only at the stage of Refining Essence and transforming Qi. She was only an immortal before.

Aunt Cui is easily satisfied. Regardless of Gu Zheng's identity, she can let her take care of the two children. It's enough to watch the two children grow up, just as she is very happy to get a set of good bone needles now.

"This, this, I want to eat this!"

Taotao suddenly pointed to the roadside. This time, it was not a bunch of fruit, but someone was frying a kind of food, emitting a faint fragrance.

Because the smell is very strong, many people, especially many children, are gathered here, biting their lips, eager to look at their family and the food they are cooking, and Taotao is also attracted.

Gu Zheng just looked at it, smiled and shook his head and said, "it smells delicious, but it tastes ordinary. The oil he uses is crude oil, and it has been a long time. It tastes very ordinary. If you smell it carefully, does it have a bitter, smoked bitterness in the aroma?"

Here are ordinary people. There is no good oil. The oil used must not be willing to throw it away. I don't know if it has been used for a few days and has already changed its taste.

Although Gu Zheng is not a tool spirit and can't directly identify food materials from a long distance, you can also guess that the food made of this oil will not be higher than second-class. The most likely thing is low. The taste of such things is limited. The food is kept by Gu Zheng. It's strange to eat. Now it's just curious.

Sure enough, after listening to Gu Zheng's remark, Tao immediately frowned and stopped asking to eat it.
