Chapter 12 Treasure Digging
I have to say that the customs of the people at this time were really simple. Of course, it may be that Wu Zhu's words were enough. In short, a quarter of an hour later, a yamen runner shouted at the streets and alleys of Bangzi. About half an hour later, the streets and alleys of Sheyang County were filled with civilians holding shovels and hoes.
Although I knew that the treasures were not in my hands, the civilians were in high spirits because the yamen runners said that whoever digs the treasures would be exempted from three years of corvee service!
The so-called corvee service is an obligation that every adult (twelve-year-old) man will have. Every year, the local rulers can unconditionally draw civilians of the right age to work, including digging canals, digging wells, moving bricks, burning kilns, etc. If there is war around, even wars have to be transferred. You must know that fighting these days is not the kind of aristocratic fun in the Spring and Autumn Period, but the real struggle is to fight.
Although the probability of digging treasures in Sheyang County is really pitiful, for these civilians, there is no technical content anyway, so the family lets the children dig it open with a small shovel. They dig a few more laps in the yard outside and the street. If they have it, they will win the prize. If they don’t have it, it won’t be a problem. Just use it as a piece of soil and you can plant some flowers and plants at will.
As for digging more? Just kidding, if you dug it in someone else's house, then what you are or what you are?
I have to say that the physical strength of the prehistoric human race is different. As the soil flies, large and small pits begin to appear in the streets and alleys of Sheyang County.
According to Wu Zhu, the blood jade transformed by frivolity was dazzling. As long as the corners were exposed, it would not be missed. And just as the county people were working hard, the manager of Xujiazhuang also rushed over with the slaves in the village.
There are two types of slaves these days. One is ordinary slaves, most of whom cannot survive and sell themselves. Most of them engage in skilled homework, such as serving tea and handing water, washing and folding clothes, sewing clothes, cooking and washing. In addition to being unable to control one's life and death, they are similar to ordinary people.
Feng Xue used the second type of barbarians captured in the war.
The so-called barbarians do not refer to nomadic peoples who have different cultures or are simply uncivilized, as they did in their previous lives, but to humans with non-human bloodlines such as demons and witch clans.
Because humans were created by the great god Nuwa imitated Pangu, they can be regarded as incomplete and incomplete versions of the Star Spirit, and they are not reproductive and isolated from the Witch Clan and the Demon Clan of the Star Spirit. Therefore, for the Lich Clan, in addition to being easy-to-use props and delicious food, the human race is also a tool to vent desires. When the protagonist of the Heaven and Earth was still the Lich Clan, many human races were enslaved by the two clans, and naturally many mixed-race children were produced.
However, there is no so-called hybrid superiority theory in this world. Half demons with mixed blood and demon races will find it difficult to absorb star power. Witch men with mixed blood and witch races do not have natural fragments of law. As human races, although they are strong in their bodies, they have low intelligence, and there are even crazy bloodthirsty factors flowing in their bloodlines.
As generations reproduce, the intelligence of these mixed-blooded human races will rise as the concentration of alien bloodlines decreases, but the bloodthirst and madness will not be weakened at all.
After the human race became the protagonist of heaven and earth, half-witches, half-demons and their descendants were not driven out. The human race tribe even tried to accept and educate, but later all failed, even resulting in the destruction of multiple vassal states.
But these barbarians were not exterminated because of this.
It was probably because the bosses above realized the truth of "born in distress and died in peace". In short, they did not take action to annihilate the barbarians, but just broke them into countless tribes, scattered around the main habitat of the human race, or in the cracks between various vassal states, constantly putting pressure on the survival of the human race.
It can be said that most of the wars that have occurred in the human race are plundered by barbarians.
However, war will also produce a large number of prisoners of war. According to Wu Zhu or simply a technique passed down by a boss, it can brand the barbarians, seal their bloodthirsty impulses, and then control them with tokens. Although the wisdom will be completely suppressed and can only obey simple orders, it can still be done for repetitive rough work such as moving bricks, mining, and cutting trees.
The barbarian slaves in Feng Xue's hands have been produced for countless generations, and there is basically no inhuman characteristics on them. Only the skin color of either black (Wu Man) or white (Yan Man) is two taller than ordinary people, and the "man" brand engraved on their faces can prove their identity.
The barbarian slaves were more physically than ordinary civilians, and they were even more lazy when working. The supervisor holding the token gave the order and waved his hoes neatly, starting from the morgue, digging all the way towards the Mi Family Grain Shop.
Feng Xue's idea is very simple. Since the half of the turtle in the Mi family and the morgue's corpse will be transformed into blood and will intersect underground, it will aggregate according to extraordinary characteristics... Ahem, according to the principle that the straight line between two points is shortest, the position where they meet is likely to be on the straight line formed by these two points.
Although the Bai Ze monster picture records that it is floating three feet underground, for the sake of safety, the announcement said it is four feet. The soil was constantly thrown up and landed in the tunnel dug behind him. The treasure has not been found, but a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants have been dug out.
At this time, Wu Zhu was not idle either. He held a bell and took his son and kept walking through the county, because no one knew whether there would be any other monsters hidden under this land. Although the probability was not high, once it appeared, there would inevitably be casualties. No matter when it was time, it would never be wrong to make sufficient preparations in advance.
...
Time passed by minute by minute, and by evening, the entire Sheyang County was filled with potholes, but the blood jade they were looking for never appeared.
Feng Xue was strolling on the trench with anxiety, more than once, trying to throw a lucky dice, but he finally held it back. After all, once the judgment failed, he, even the slaves under his name, would never be able to dig the Blood Jade.
"All I can do it, and at this time I will only pray."
Feng Xue thought to herself, but she did not pray for any existence. Although the worldview is different, he agrees very much with a statement in a novel in his previous life—
All the gifts have been secretly bid for good prices.
You never know how huge debt you will be borne after a prayer is responded to.
Feng Xue is not afraid of death. As for the golden finger, he can die at least four more times, but he is afraid of being targeted by the big guys. Although he is likely to be stared at by the big guys now, Shennong is a sage of the human race. As long as he does not do anything harmful to the human race, there will be no problem.
But it is unknown what other bigwigs have to do with him, the "extraterritorial demon".
The excavation lasted for most of the day, until midnight. Feng Xue, who had not slept for a day and a night, still couldn't let go. He followed the Mannu team with a faint dark circle, until Xu Fu, who was in charge of leading the team, suddenly made a sound that seemed to him like the sound of nature.
