"Sure enough... After the land area is larger, the social structure is also different." Lin Tuo was a little emotional.
According to the description in the log, the human social structure in the sand table today is a form of alliance of nations.
Aside from the inaccessible and unexplored places around the mainland, the most fertile central region is home to dozens of countries, large and small.
Among them, the "ding" country is the most powerful, and the world is the master, so it is counted as the "dading" dynasty, and the rest of the kingdoms belong to the "state of vassal."
The princes here are not canonized by the royal family, but an independent and autonomous country.
Probably this situation.
In terms of time, the Ding Dynasty has existed for more than three hundred years.
"It looks like it hasn't gotten rid of slavery, but it also has a complete social form. Well, it seems that this place is a little worse than the original pool country... Is it because of the difference in the size of the country..."
Lin Tuo thought, calling out the virtual panel and turning off the time acceleration. The light and shadow in the sand table stopped immediately. In the upper left corner, the current environment ether concentration was displayed as "low", which is not surprising.
"The number of demons is still scarce..." Casting his gaze into the sky, the scattered green and white aura, the number of hanging etheric lines has increased a lot than yesterday, but compared to humans, it is still too small.
Lin Tuo thought about it, but it was not surprising.
Monsters were born in different ethnic groups, relying too much on accident, and it is difficult to reproduce in scale, not to mention possible obstacles at the fertility level, but the number scale is not enough to support...
In case of bad luck, there is only one demon in the whole group, or two, but they are of the same sex... Just thinking about it, it is very sad.
Moreover, once wisdom is turned on, there is a high probability that it will not continue to live with the ignorant of the same race.
Lin Tuo noticed that those thin lines of ether are mostly distributed in places where humans gather, forests on the outskirts of cities, or mountains near villages.
"Well, speaking of it, there will definitely be conflicts under this kind of mixed living pattern." Lin Tuo thought, feeling that the work of spreading the practice method is becoming more and more urgent.
Yes, the "next step" of the plan is to spread the cultivation method.
As for how to disseminate, he already has an idea, but before that, he still needs to understand the internal situation of the sand table, conduct a "investigation" of the social situation, and make targeted adjustments.
As for the location of the "research", Lin Tuo's gaze was drawn high above the mainland, and the ether concentration above dozens of vassal states fell on the most dense area.
That is not the place of the "kingdom of the world", but a kingdom of vassals.
After thinking for two seconds, Lin Tuo turned around and took out a black cloak that had been prepared a long time ago from the cupboard. He immediately pushed the door and went outside, shouting, "Huaxi?"
"Huh?" Master Li Shan, who had just washed the dishes, rolled up her sleeves, walked out of the kitchen with her hands soaked in water, with a question mark on her face.
In the next second, I saw a dark shadow rushing towards his face: "Change clothes, wait for a business trip with me."
...
Lin Tuo doesn't have a job, and of course the business trip here has something else to say.
When Huaxi dried his hands excitedly, put on this strange cloak, walked out the door, and saw Lin Tuo, who was also wearing the cloak, already standing in the patio.
"Do you want to teleport..." Huaxi's heart felt enlightened. She had long known that Lin Tuo had the ability to teleport, but it was mostly used to fetch takeaways in the past... Today, it is obviously different.
"Where are you going?" Huaxi walked over expertly, holding onto.
In the sun, Lin Tuo pulled his hood and pulled away the hair that was blocking his vision: "Go to another world."
...
...
The center of the Mang Continent, the place where the human races gather, and the vast land belong to the realm of the Great Ding Dynasty.
In the southwest, it was the territory of the vassal "sheng" country.
There is a mountain range in the south of the prosperous country, which is called Dahuangshan because of its barrenness.
There are villages at the foot of the mountain, but they are unknown.
At this moment, it was the evening, and the clouds on the western horizon seemed to freeze, and the bright sun was slowly falling towards the horizon.
The sun shines through the clouds, dimly, on the faces of the crowd gathered at the entrance of the village, like an oil painting.
However, the simple eyebrows and eyes of the villagers gathered here only became more anxious.
Almost all the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, close together, looking at the direction of the mountain, as if waiting for something.
suddenly.
"Uncle Tie and they are back!" A sharp-eyed doll shouted first among the crowd.
Then, other people also saw a group of people running out of the dense forest in the distance.
The whole silent picture seemed to be broken, and everyone was obviously relieved, as if a hanging heart fell to the ground.
The village chief headed by the crowd yelled in a hurry before the people came over.
"How is it? Has the mountain received it?"
On the opposite side, six or seven men ran out of the forest. They were still wearing some bright ribbons, and some were carrying poles in their hands.
At this moment, panting and running to the entrance of the village, a tall man in the lead shook his head, nodded, and said in the anxious expressions of the others:
"I didn't see it, we left the offering in the temple and came back."
Everyone looked at each other, the answer was good or bad, and finally the village chief said:
"Anyway, it's fine if you all come back. The rest is up to God's will. I hope that the mountain will not enter the village for the sake of offerings. Go back, go back."
While they were talking, the people guarding the entrance of the village turned their heads worriedly and slowly, they were about to walk back, but the kid just couldn't help but said, "What mountain is clearly a demon..."
"What nonsense?!" Next to him, the child's father was anxious, and quickly kicked him, turned his head and looked at the mountain in the distance, and cursed in a low voice, "You have nothing to eat at night!"
"Forget it, Tong Yan Wuji." A tall man named Wang Tie walked over and persuaded the leader.
In his eyes, there was a moment of sorrow.
Demon.
Yes, what mountain is just a demon at all.
There are demons in the heavens and the earth. This is something that everyone who grows up in this world has known since childhood. They often appear in stories and dreams. When they grow up, they know that demons really exist.
They are scarce in number, but far more powerful than ordinary beasts and humans. They can only be dealt with by military formations wearing armor. They stray on this land and invade villages and towns from time to time.
In the long period of time, humans and monsters gradually reached a strange "tacit understanding".
Once the demon comes to a certain area and reveals its whereabouts, someone will send cattle, cattle and sheep as offerings. Some demon accept the offerings and leave, while others swallow them together...
Of course, there are also a few demons who have received offerings and will use their abilities to give some rewards...
But no one would bet.
Not long ago, when someone in the village went to a nearby town, they heard that a demon had entered the surrounding area and killed people. Right now, I don't know where it went.
When I returned, I was stunned to find the traces of the monster walking in the mountains, and the whole village suddenly became nervous.
It is not a town, and there are no officers and soldiers stationed, so there is no one to protect it.
The village hurriedly slaughtered the livestock, collected some offerings, and sent them to the temple on the mountain, but never thought that when they arrived there, they did not meet the Lord.
Seeing the sky darkened, everyone did not dare to stay longer, and then returned in a hurry.
Thinking of this, Wang Tie, who had been in the city for several years, couldn't help but sink.
If the demon does come, can they stop it?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help stopping, turning his head and looking behind him.
At the junction of the mountain and the flat land, the sun has fallen by a half.
But at this moment, suddenly, a weird wind blew up, swaying everyone's clothes, hair, and the entire mountain forest. The wind was blowing on the earth, and the birds were flying.
"Ah, there is someone on the official road!" The kid next to him shouted again, and Wang Tie and others looked eagerly.
I saw that on the relatively "wide" and "level" official road between the village and the forest, two travelers in black cloaks, one large and one small, were walking side by side.
Behind them, there is the red warm sun, in a trance, the two seem to be walking from the sun.
...
"It's dark and the road is far away. Is it convenient to stay overnight?"
In a daze, when everyone came back to their senses, they saw that the two strangers had already arrived at the entrance of the village. The first one pulled down his hood, revealing a face that was exceptionally white and had a different temperament from the village.
Alongside, Huaxi also learned to pull off his hat, so the surprise in the eyes of the villagers became more intense.
Compared with the poor Shengguo villagers, Lin Tuo and Huaxi are very different from this world in terms of appearance, temperament, and dress.
Looking at...like a "city man" far away.
"Inconvenience?" Seeing no one answered, Lin Tuo frowned insignificantly, thinking that he had to change the place.
"No, it's just... we are not in peace here."
The village chief looked at the two of them for a while, and kindly persuaded them. Seeing the two of them looked at him, he pointed to the mountain not far away with emphasis, and lowered his voice to remind him: "Here, there is a monster."
Immediately, I saw a smile in Lin Tuo's eyes: "That's great."
