God Eye Courier

Chapter 266
Before the sun went down, Yang Suzhen took the two of them into a small mountain village.

The mountain village is not big, with a total of dozens of households. From a distance, the chimneys of several households are filled with smoke.

There is a brown boundary marker erected at the entrance of the village, with three big cinnabar characters engraved on it - Ping'an Village. These three big characters are particularly conspicuous in the afterglow of the setting sun.

As soon as he stepped into the entrance of the village, Ye Xuan scanned the whole village with his perspective eyes. The houses in the village are relatively simple, similar to the ancient folk houses. Every household does not light up. There is no electricity in this world. It seems that the villagers do not need electricity, not even candles. point.

The doors and windows of every household are tightly closed, and the whole family sits cross-legged in the living room, silent, as if practicing cultivation.

The strange thing is that the houses in the village are antique, but the clothes people wear are very modern, such as vests, shorts, waistcoats, jackets, dresses...

After walking for a while, Ye Xuan asked the question in his heart, "Sister Yang, it's still early in the morning, why do the villagers gather in the living room to practice?"

Yang Suzhen replied: "There is no electricity in Lunhai, and of course there is no communication equipment such as telephones, and there are no entertainment programs such as TV dramas. People here have nothing but to practice and prolong their lives.

Therefore, after sunset, every family gathers in the living room to practice together. The next day when the dawn breaks, the men go to the mountains to hunt and plant spiritual fields, while the women cook at home and teach the children how to practice. "

Ye Xuan said again: "Although the clothes worn by the villagers are old, they are similar to the clothes of modern people on the earth, completely different from the ancient toga with big sleeves."

Yang Suzhen raised her eyebrows and said: "As long as the clothes can protect the body from the cold, it doesn't need to be complicated at all. Of course monks understand this truth."

"Luo Wen, you have to work hard to adapt to life here in the future." Yang Suzhen looked at Luo Wenyu and said earnestly.

Luo Wen nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Xiangu, I will definitely live up to your expectations."

Yang Suzhen talked about Luo Wen's whereabouts early in the morning, but never mentioned how Ye Xuan should deal with himself after arriving in Lunhai Realm. Suddenly, Ye Xuan remembered the fantasy novels he usually read, thinking that he was about to go to a certain sect to participate in the trial.

"Sister Yang, Luo Wen has settled down, where should I go?"

Yang Suzhen frowned, and said with a smile: "When I arrive at the village head's house in a while, I will give you the basic situation of the science and sea environment. After you understand it, you can decide your own way in the future."

The implication is that Yang Suzhen is only responsible for sending Ye Xuan to Lunhai Realm, and doesn't care about his future life or death.

Ye Xuan had no choice but to smile wryly: "Okay, the big deal is that I will enter the sect in the future and start as a disciple of the outer sect."

During the conversation, they had already walked to a small courtyard. Of the more than 70 courtyards in the village, only this one was open.

Suddenly, an old man in black clothes walked to the door with a lantern. Ye Xuan had already seen through his clairvoyant eyes that he was the only one in the whole village.

"Village Chief Yuan, hello." Yang Suzhen greeted with a smile.

Village head Yuan smiled all over his face, bowed to Yang Suzhen and said, "Miss Yang, long time no see, are these two rookies sent by you?"

Yang Suzhen pointed to Luo Wen, "His name is Luo Wen, and I will entrust you to take care of him from now on. The other one is named Ye Xuan, and he will leave with me later."

Village Chief Yuan looked Luo Wen up and down, and saw that the latter felt hairy and backed away unnaturally.

Village Elder Yuan's old face darkened, and he criticized: "Even if the children who dare to come to Lunhai Realm are not high-level, most of them are not afraid of tigers as newborn calves. Luo Wen, when we first met, you behaved rather poorly."

Luo Wen timidly took two steps forward, bowed and said, "Village Chief, hello, I am from Earth, and I have only practiced for a short time. Please forgive me if I am not considerate."

Village Chief Yuan laughed loudly, "Don't be nervous. Although the first impression is not very good, I will not despise you because of this. People's potential is often unlimited. I look forward to your next performance."

"Miss Yang, Mr. Luo, please sit in the house for a while." The village chief invited the two into the house in a gentlemanly manner.

Ye Xuan and the others followed the village head into the living room. There was a willow on the top of the moon, and the clear light was not enough to illuminate the spacious living room. Fortunately, the village head's lantern was very bright, comparable to a 20W light bulb.

Yang Suzhen took a sip of tea, "What's the situation in Ancun?"

Village Chief Yuan beamed with joy, "It's still the same, the harvest in the spiritual field is good, we hunted down four monsters yesterday, all of them were low-level monsters that ran from the Wanshen Forest to the woods outside the village."

Village Chief Yuan reached out and patted Luo Wen's small shoulder, and said generously: "From now on, you will stay at my house and practice with me."

"Okay, from now on, you will be my master." Luo Wen stood up, bent down, and held the tea over his head, showing great respect.

"Good boy, I've accepted you as an apprentice, lay a good foundation in Ping'an Village, and strive to leave as soon as possible."

During the chat, Yang Suzhen and Village Chief Yuan explained the basic features of Lunhai to Ye Xuan and Luo Wenke.

In Lunhai, there are [-] villages that are similar in size to Ping'an Village. There are strict levels here, and the only criterion for dividing levels is cultivation.

Villagers are the lowest-level monks. If villagers study hard and have confidence in themselves, they can go to the town's monks' guild for a trial on a designated date. If they pass the assessment, they will be promoted to townspeople immediately.

By analogy, townspeople can be promoted to citizens through hard work. Citizens are considered middle-level monks, and they can practice in a few cities with concentrated resources and rich aura.

Of course, there are also sects here, but the threshold for entering the sect is relatively high. The entrance fee for ordinary sects is [-] spirit stones, while the entrance fee for famous sects is as high as [-] spirit stones.

In a small village like Ping'an Village, the total number of spirit stones in the whole village is only tens of thousands. It is conceivable that the children in the village dare not even dream of entering the Zongmen to study.

What's even more unreasonable is that the sect's recruitment of apprentices doesn't look at aptitude at all, but only at spirit stones.

To put it bluntly, the sects in this place are similar to private schools in Huaxia. No matter what their academic performance is, students can go to school if they can afford the tuition fees.

After hearing this, Ye Xuan felt blocked, and said angrily: "The sect accepts disciples based on money. Aren't you afraid of missing good seedlings? If things go on like this, the cultivation base of the sect's disciples will become weaker and weaker, won't the reputation plummet?"

Yang Suzhen asked Ye Xuan, "The academic performance of private schools must be worse than that of public schools?"

Ye Xuan's heart sank, and he replied: "No way, generally speaking, the average grades of private schools are much higher than public schools, and the quality of the students they teach is also higher in all aspects, you mean..."

Yang Suzhen continued: "As long as they are not geniuses or idiots, other children's intelligence levels are similar, and it is the same in Lunhai Realm. The aboriginals' aptitudes are almost the same, but there is a big difference in the day after tomorrow.

There are strong people from various planes gathered here, and the strong people are either married or formed an alliance. Their offspring are naturally much better than ordinary monks, and they can afford the money to study in the sect. Therefore, the sect selects disciples based on money Not without reason. "

Luo Wen said sadly: "I didn't expect Lunhai to be more competitive than Huaxia. At least Huaxia's college entrance examination shows real talents and learning. There is no chance of promotion here."

The village chief encouraged: "Don't be discouraged, you are monks from outside the territory, there are many opportunities, and this country has a promotion mechanism, villagers can pass the assessment to become townspeople, but after living in Ping'an Village for a long time, everyone is reluctant to leave.

There is also a shortcut, go to the Myriad Mysteries Demon Forest to hunt monsters and sell them to aristocratic families. A mid-level monster can be exchanged for at least 1 yuan in spirit stones. If you kill three or five monsters, you can save enough tuition to enter the sect . "

"Why are monsters so valuable?" Ye Xuan was puzzled.

"The nutritional value of monsters is much higher than that of spirit valleys, which is of great benefit to cultivation. The young masters of big families grew up eating monster meat, and their physique is several times stronger than that of monks from poor families."

Ye Xuan sneered: "If the poor give their children the monsters they have hard-earned, maybe the children in the family will gradually become stronger. Alas, this is an endless loop."

Luo Wen asked, "Brother Ye, what are you going to do from now on?"

Ye Xuan thought for a while, and said: "I want to go to the Myriad Mysteries Demon Forest, maybe I can get something unexpected."

Upon hearing this, Village Chief Yuan took out a cowhide map from the cabinet and introduced the nearby terrain and routes to Ye Xuan in detail.

Ye Xuan listened carefully and printed the map in his mind.

There were only three wooden houses in the village head's house, and there was no place for Ye Xuan to live at all. Ye Xuan was acquainted, and after chatting for half the night, seeing Luo Wen and the village head looking tired, he resigned voluntarily.

"Ye Xuan, take care!"

Yang Suzhen smiled sweetly, saying goodbye, not even intending to send Ye Xuan off.

"Brother Ye, when will we see each other again?" Luo Wen's heart was on fire, as soon as Ye Xuan left, he was left alone in this completely strange place.

"Don't worry, I remember the route of Ping'an Village, I will come to you in a while, practice hard, and don't cause trouble with Uncle Yuan."

Ye Xuan instructed his younger brother Luo Wen to bow to Yang Suzhen and Village Chief Yuan each, then turned around and flew away.

However, his flying speed was much slower than in Huaxia, and it was only now that he truly realized that although the zhenqi in the Lunhai Realm was abundant, it was difficult for a monk with low strength to control the zhenqi to come and go freely.

From the map, there is a small town in the west of Ping'an Village. The town is quite prosperous. Ye Xuan wanted to visit the town.

In the dead of night, the villagers were practicing at home, and most of the townspeople were doing the same. There was no one on the wide street.

Flying around the whole town, Ye Xuan finally stopped in front of the only inn that was not closed. As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a burst of loud orchestral music and cheers.

"It sounds good, it's the sound of nature." A burly man slapped the table and applauded.

The inn is divided into upper and lower floors. There are about seven or eight guest rooms on the upper floor. There are no guest rooms on the lower floor. It is a place for eating and entertainment. Various wines are placed on the counter.

Three wooden tables were put together in the middle of the hall. Two young girls in taupe-colored long skirts stood on the table, holding the erhu and Liuqin respectively, which drew applause from the surrounding men.

Ye Xuan couldn't understand the rhythm, and couldn't tell if he was pulling well, so he quickly glanced at everyone, and his eyes fell on the counter.

There was only a blond man behind the counter, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, blue eyes, and a beard. He was dressed like a cowboy in the American West.
