Chapter 44 Gillian(1/2)
The environment to the west of the eastern-Turkish border is harsh. Although it is no longer a desert area, the land is still sandy and petrified, which is not conducive to planting.
Most of the people at this time, including scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, were engaged in farming.
The village exists here, and the farmers there must also be engaged in farming.
How much can be harvested from farming here? It must be very little.
In this case, why are there so many dogs in the village?
There is not enough food for people, so how can we raise so many dogs? This is very unusual.
Jin Xiongxiong frowned again.
Everyone in the village has enough to eat and can afford to raise so many dogs, among which Maoer's evil must be buried very deep. If not buried deeply, those ill-gotten gains will not be obtained so easily.
Now that they have it, the village must have a way to hide it.
Suddenly discovering such a thing, she was not a smart person and immediately began to doubt herself.
She is such a simple monster, but there are many people smarter than her. How did the villagers deceive those people?
It's unreasonable for the village, and it's unreasonable for her to detect Maoer Ni so easily.
The dragons and little monsters following Jin Xiongxiong are actually not very smart people, but they still have some brains.
Seeing Jin Xiongxiong stop and frown, and then say that there is nothing to do and continue walking, the relatively smart pig spirit, mouse spirit and dragon became cautious.
Although the little monsters have lower cultivation levels, they are still much stronger than ordinary dogs.
Listening to the barking of dogs in the village, they gradually realized that the village was not simple.
"Why are there so many dogs in the village?" Jiaolong noticed that there were many dogs in the village, but he didn't know what was wrong with it.
Jiaolong had been practicing in seclusion not long after he was born. He had never walked around in the human world. He didn't know that it was normal for people to have difficulty eating.
Jin Xiongxiong did not hesitate to explain to her, "If people have enough food, they naturally raise dogs."
After listening to Jin Xiongxiong's words, Jiaolong still didn't understand why.
Monsters are powerful and never lack food. Jiaolong doesn't think there's anything wrong with people having enough food, so naturally he doesn't hear anything wrong.
Jiaolong didn't understand, but Pig Jing did.
Pigs like to eat, drink and sleep. I still have some research on the lives of people in this world, especially about eating.
He smacked his lips and wanted to say something. He lowered his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "Do you still remember the common people you met in Loulan?"
Jiaolong is the most powerful person in the team. Zhu Jing did not dare to say too much, so he only said this briefly.
Jin Xiongxiong glanced at Zhu Jing, looked ahead and said, "The ancient city of Loulan is the royal capital of Loulan. It is difficult for the people there to have enough to eat. This village is in the wilderness, and the wilderness is so desolate.
It’s hard to understand where they get so much food from.”
The pig spirit was glanced at by Jin Xiongxiong, touched his nose, stopped talking, and retreated to the mouse spirit.
The pig spirit was shrewd and smooth in his words and deeds. Jin Xiongxiong knew it, but even if he knew it, he just looked at him sideways and had no intention of blaming him. Instead, Huatou explained to Jiaolong.
The way she behaves, Pig Jing is grateful.
Some kings will be afraid of smart subordinates, and may even give them small shoes.
Golden Bear won’t.
The Pig Spirit took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and invited the Mouse Spirit to eat them together.
Mouse Spirit, "Why are you so generous today?"
The pig spirit was well-known as a food protector in the team, so he suddenly separated out the melon seeds, which surprised the mouse spirit.
"Hehe," the pig spirit chuckled and said, "Do you want to eat it or not? If not, I will eat it myself."
"Eat, eat, eat." The rat spirit snatched the melon seeds from the pig spirit's hand.
Here, the two brothers shared the melon seeds easily, making the little monsters behind them greedy; over there, Jiaolong came to his senses after hearing Jin Xiongxiong's words.
"You mean, the people in this village are not simple?" Jiaolong took a breath and stopped.
The people here in Jiaolong's mouth are not simple, but they are not simple but have profound connotations.
Where did their food come from? Other than robbery, Jiaolong had no idea.
Jin Xiongxiong knew what Jiaolong was thinking.
To be honest, it's not just Jiaolong who thinks this way, she actually thinks so too.
"You can't make a decision easily yet, you have to go in and take a closer look."
Until you see it with your own eyes, all guesses will be just guesses.
"You still want to go in?" Jiaolong didn't know why Jin Xiongxiong wanted to go in, when he had already guessed pretty well.
If you go in like this, don't you want to deliver food?
People all over the world say that snakes are insidious and cunning. As a former snake, Jiaolong feels that humans are the most insidious and cunning ones.
This village is full of weirdness and is obviously the leader in cunning and cunning.
Subconsciously, Jiaolong didn't want to deal with such people.
Seeing that Jiaolong was having social difficulties again, Jin Xiongxiong shook his head and said, "Let's go, no matter how powerful they are, they are just human beings."
No matter how cunning a person is, can he compare with monsters?
Thinking about it, Jin Xiongxiong left first.
As she walked, she didn't know why she was reminded of modern society.
In that kind of society, all the mighty beasts are imprisoned in zoos.
It seems that humans are no match for monsters?
Jin Xiongxiong felt a heart attack in his heart.
As a monster, how could she destroy her majesty? She shook her head secretly and put this terrible thought behind her.
Modern humans can restrain ferocious beasts because they have mastered advanced technology and are brave and resourceful.
Not to mention their abilities, this group of monsters is a bit naive, but they are not overly stupid.
It’s impossible to end up being enslaved by humans, right?
Jin Xiongxiong was still worried and turned back to look at the little monsters.
The little monsters shamelessly shared a few melon seeds from the pig spirit and were eating them with gusto. When Touo raised his head and looked at her, he subconsciously hid the melon seeds behind his back.
This action of theirs was done subconsciously, and it was unnecessary to realize it later after hiding it.
Just eat a melon seed so you don't hide it.
Speaking of which, if it were normal times, they would definitely not be so panicked.
Jin Xiongxiong's expression was really so bad, and he was gnashing his teeth with a look of hatred on his face. They were subconsciously afraid when they saw it.
"Da-king?"
Jin Xiongxiong gave them a scornful look, "Cheer up, Your Majesty. There may be some tricksters in this village. Be careful when you go in. Don't walk alone easily. If something happens, there must be two or more together."
As long as the little monsters stayed together, she wouldn't worry.
What she was worried about was that if they separated, each of them would be knocked down by humans.
Those modern ferocious beasts are easily defeated by humans because they are weak and weak.
"What are you doing standing still? Did you hear that?" Jin Xiongxiong shouted.
The little monsters stood up straight after being shouted at, and shouted together, "Yes!"
Hearing their voice made the crows fly away, Jin Xiongxiong had a dark look on his face, "What are you doing so loudly? Keep it down, are you afraid it won't be loud enough to scare others away from you?"
The little monsters were so loud, didn't she start it first?
The little monsters dared not speak out in anger, so they could only nod in agreement.
Sensing the sound of human footsteps behind them, Jinxiongxiong and Jiaolong turned their heads together.
I saw that some people had gathered in the village at some point. The old man took the lead and held a torch out of the village, facing them from a distance at the entrance of the village.
The old man, who was supported by a young man, said in a majestic and old-fashioned voice, "Who are you?"
The air was quiet except for the crackling sound of burning torches.
Jinxiongxiong's nose was very sensitive. He glanced at the torches, moved his nose and vaguely smelled the smell of alcohol.
Not only can the people in this village afford to keep dogs, they are also wealthy enough to burn wine to make torches.
Jin Xiongxiong lowered his eyes and answered when he raised his head again, "We are traveling merchants from...the Tang Dynasty in the East. We are going to buy goods from the West. We pass by the village and want to stay overnight."
"I wonder, is the village convenient?"
"You are from the Tang Dynasty, you..." The old man looked at them and the group of monsters for a while, and then said, "The village is convenient. Hurry, Ah Heng, go to the village to find a suitable house and tidy up for a few distinguished guests."
When he mentioned the word "distinguished guest", the old man inadvertently raised his voice a little.
His tone was respectful and his expression was very happy. Those who didn't know it thought he was just happy and accidentally amplified his voice.
