Wu Ming is sizing up Silver Thalle(s) on hand carefully. 吴明仔细打量着手上的银塔勒。 The silver coin is exuding the gloss, because sometime taking care is improper, had covered one slightly black filthy, edge also has the grinding has cut the trace, making it seem like not very symmetrical. 银币本身泛着光泽,又因为有一段时间的保管不当,已经略微蒙上了一层黑垢,边缘处还有磨剪过的痕迹,令它看起来并不是十分匀称。 Center the silver coin, has a head picture, is in the hearsay ‚vanquisher’ the Thalle portrait, he once unified entire Windy Firefly Flatlands, and expansion, founded a kingdom outward, is purest Blue blood. 在银币正中,有着一个头像,乃是传闻中的‘征服者’塔勒的肖像,他曾经统一了整个风萤平原,并且向外扩张,建立了一个王国,是最纯粹的蓝血。 This is also the biggest currency unit that William can have. 这也是威廉所能拥有的最大货币单位。 As for above Gold Delong(s), he can only think in having a dream probably. 至于其上的金德隆,他大概只敢在做梦里才会想想。 „My this may also calculate utterly destitute......” “我这可也算家徒四壁了吧……” Wu Ming looked at the surroundings, somewhat sighed very much speechless. 吴明看了看周围,很是有些无语地叹道。 Unknowingly, night. 不知不觉中,夜已深。 A shadow runs from the William small log cabin, evaded the observation arrow tower extremely cleverly, slipped away outside the town/subdues from the corner. 一道黑影从威廉的小木屋中跑出,极为灵巧地躲过了瞭望箭塔,从角落里溜出了镇外。 „Going hunting is so troublesome, is really......” “打个猎还如此麻烦,实在是……” Wu Ming racing line/traverse in shadow, is thinking reluctantly. 吴明一面在阴影中奔行,一面无奈地想着。 His body or the average person, need the table salt, to need the medicinal herb, cannot the life of eating birds and animals raw. 他这个身体还是普通人,需要食盐、需要药材,不能过茹毛饮血的生活。 But must become outstanding in the small town, even if only slightly out of the ordinary, is not that easy matter. 但要在小镇上出人头地,哪怕只是略微出格一点,也不是那么容易的事情。 Is brandishing the tax collector of tax form, divides minute to teach you to turn over a new leaf. 挥舞着税单的税务官,分分钟就会教你重新做人。 Even if goes hunting, he can also concoct pretexts, collects one pile of hunter taxes, tax on slaughtering animal anything, the government official, this almost is the instinct, because this most income will fall into the middle of his own pocket. 纵然打猎,他也能巧立名目,收一堆猎人税,屠宰税什么的,在官吏而言,这几乎便是本能,因为这大部分收入都将落入他自己的口袋当中。 As for law? 至于法律？ Sorry! Entire Baron lead(er), except for freeman owner-cultivated beside, other belongs to Baron completely all my, the farming such as is, the jungle and prey also such as are! 抱歉！整个男爵领,除了自由民的自耕地之外,其它的全部都归属男爵本人所有,耕地如是,丛林与猎物亦如是！ Baron said that was the law!

Has the opportunity of fulfiling the aspiration!” “此世界平民出头之路实在太狭窄了,必须成为贵族！才有施展抱负的机会！” In Wu Ming pupil none twinkle: „Naturally...... this road is also difficult, must first grasp strength! Most foundation is to recuperate this body! This must eat the salt, to eat the meat!” 吴明眸中精光闪烁:“当然……这条路也非常艰辛,首先得掌握力量！最基础的就是要将这个身体养好！这就必须吃盐、吃肉！” The salt that this world civilians use, did not say seriously, Wu Ming can only buy to purify again one time, only to eat. 这个世界平民所用的盐,当真是不说也罢,吴明只能买来自己再提纯一次,仅供自己食用。 As for trading? Patent? Seeks exorbitant profits? 至于贩卖？专利？牟取暴利？ That really wants is too many, in without becoming Aristocrat, before having own territory, Wu Ming will not have this idea. 那实在是想太多了,在没有成为贵族,拥有自己的领地之前,吴明根本不会打这个主意。 If can take opportunity certainly, gives to Baron anything's Aristocrat this small technology, as the step of reaching, he had thought that was quite cost-effective. 若是能拿准机会,将这个小技术献给男爵什么的贵族,作为晋身之阶,他就已经觉得相当划算了。 Cluck! Cluck! 咕咕！咕咕！ The jungle under dim light of night is quite quiet, the breeze transmits the smell of green grass, not well-known birds cry. 夜色下的丛林相当静谧,微风传来青草的气味,还有不知名的鸟类叫声。 Wu Ming attention all centralized in facial features, really takes possession the brought keen sensation spirit, making him the ability in this aspect outstanding, even if some outstanding scouting and stragglers are unable to compare. 吴明将注意力尽数集中在五官,真灵附体所带来的敏锐感知,令他在这方面的能力出色无比,纵然一些优秀的斥候与游荡者也是无法比拟。 He stops over gently, has not made the a trace sound, the most form hides in the darkness, just like sneaking general. 他落脚轻柔,没有发出一丝声响,大半身影都潜藏在黑暗之中,宛如潜行一般。 Pā! 啪！ The Wu Ming eyebrow selects, in the hand a simple crossbow starts instantly, gravel howls is submerging in the middle of the thick patch of grass, is startled a scream. 吴明眉毛一挑,手上一只简易弹弓刹那开动,一枚石子呼啸着没入草丛当中,惊起一声尖叫。 „Grey feather turtledove?” “灰羽斑鸠？” He opens the thick patch of grass, sees a taking the form of pigeon, the whole body grey feather, the back and nape of the neck brings a blue bird to fall on there, the surroundings have a feather. 他翻开草丛,就见到一只形似鸽子,浑身灰羽,背部与脖颈带着点蓝色的禽类落在那里,周围还有一圈羽毛。 „Had to harvest......” “有收获了……” Wu Ming is looking at the jungle, looks buried treasure that has probably not developed. 吴明望着丛林,就好像看着还未开发的宝藏。 Within a half hour, near brook. 半个小时之后,溪流边上。 One pile of gray feathers and internal organs drew , is also burying carefully. 一堆灰色的羽毛与内脏被收拢起来,又仔细掩埋着。 The original several turtledove washed off cleanly, bound a leaf, spreads the mud again, is simmering in the fire of high-piled firewood slowly. 原本的几只斑鸠被洗剥干净,又裹了一层叶子,再涂上泥巴,在火堆中慢慢煨着。 This is the indigenous method calls the approach of chicken, when without pot brings to help in an emergency just right. 这是土法叫化鸡的做法,没锅时拿来救急正好。 After the meat is ripe, Wu Ming pushes aside the fire of high-piled firewood, takes out the 6-7 mud group, breaks open the outer covering, meat fragrance overflows immediately, cancels a person of greedy saliva. 等到肉熟之后,吴明扒开火堆,取出六七个泥团,又砸开外壳,一层肉香顿时四溢开来,勾人馋涎。 „Good......” “不错……” Although the seasoning only has the salt, but the flavor is very tasty, sliding, but is not greasy, shakes gently, the bird meat and skeleton then naturally separate, bring the stock unusual delicate fragrance. 虽然调料只有盐巴,但味道还很是鲜美,滑而不腻,轻轻一抖,鸟肉与骨架便自然分开,带着股奇特的清香。 Ate the 5-6 only turtledove after continually, Wu Ming sets out, traces the belly, grows satisfiedly breathes a sigh of relief. 一连吃了五六只斑鸠之后,吴明起身,摸了摸肚子,满足地长舒口气。 „Beforehand William, down and out, even the meat rarely eats, although works at farming to exercise muscle, but is consumes the potential and life span must come, at this time should eat food supplements slowly......” “以前的威廉,穷困潦倒,连肉食都很少吃,虽然务农锻炼出一身肌肉,但都是消耗潜力与寿命得来,此时就应该慢慢进补……” After being satiated with food and wine, he starts to collect the specimen of various plant and animal in the jungle. 吃饱喝足之后,他又开始在丛林中采集各种植物与动物的标本。 As one generation of Heavenly Immortal, Grandmaster refining pills (alchemy), the simple medicine mixes naturally cannot baffle him, so long as were familiar with this Universe property, naturally can dispose most foundation medicament. 作为一代天仙,炼丹大师,简单的药物调配自然难不倒他,只要熟悉了本宇宙的药性,自然可以配置出最基础的药剂。 Thinks that in small town the doctor treatment method by the scholar being held concurrent jobs, Wu Ming is somewhat afraid. 一想到小镇上的那位由学者兼职的医生治疗手段,吴明就有些不寒而栗。 Medicine in William mind, only knows four treating an illness methods: Urges to spit, purgation and bloodletting, to have with the Demonic Ghost flower anaesthetizes...... 威廉心目中的医者,只知道四个治病的手段:催吐、催泻、放血、还有用魔鬼花麻醉…… How pit can want to see! 可以想见如何之坑！ Basically, even if others in small town, meet the disease, is firmly resist is in the majority, naturally, Wu Ming guessed that also reason, is they do not have enough money...... 基本上,纵然小镇上的其他人,遇到疾病,也是自己硬抗的居多,当然,吴明猜测还有一个原因,就是他们也没有足够的钱…… „From the beginning, from the most basic place, understands this Universe rule......” “从头开始,从最基本之处,了解这个宇宙的规则……” „Also, exercises this, simultaneously seeks for the unusual strength, is the clue of Universe strength rule......” “还有,锻炼好这个身体,同时寻找超凡之力,也就是本宇宙力量规则的线索……” Wu Ming makes the next later plan to oneself silently. 吴明默默给自己做下以后的规划。 His main body life is in any case long, this matter is not completely anxious, may attempt it greatly slowly. 反正他本体寿元悠长,这点事情完全不急,大可徐徐图之。 ...... …… Spring last fall. 春去秋来。 Quick, several months passes. 很快,数个月的时间过去。 The oats outside small town were harvested, the golden wheat ear was stroked by the breeze, as if the wave disperses generally, brings the harvest the joy. 小镇之外的燕麦大片大片被收割,金黄色的麦穗被微风一拂,仿佛波浪一般散开,带来丰收的喜悦。 When this time, in the small town the only mill started to begin stay up till dawn, the tax collector on town/subdues is staring in side a trace carefully. 每到这个时候,小镇上唯一的磨坊就开始日夜不停地开工,镇上的税务官在旁边一丝不苟地盯着。 He is collecting the mill tax, under the territory law, each lead(er) people uses mill a time, 1/10 wheat flour that produces must take the tax revenue to enter the Baron pocket, this is very big source of wealth. 他在收取磨坊税,按照领地法律,每个领民使用一次磨坊,所磨出的十分之一麦粉都要作为税收进入男爵的口袋,这可是很大一个财源。 Usually silent mill, at this time a lively noise. 平时寂静的磨坊,此时一片热闹喧嚣。 In the William memory, here of idle time, is in the small town all places of unmarried couple best having an affair, does not know that many boy girls, turned into the man and woman here. 在威廉的记忆中,清闲时候的这里,乃是小镇上所有野鸳鸯最好的偷情之地,不知道多少男孩女孩,在这里变成了男人与女人。 Naturally, at this time Wu Ming will not consider these. 当然,此时吴明根本不会考虑这些。 Own after attains collects, he in front of oneself hut, draws out that to break a section of iron sword, starts a trace to train carefully. 将自己的所获收藏好之后,他在自己小屋前面,拔出那柄断了一截的铁剑,开始一丝不苟地训练起来。 „First punctures!” “前刺！” „Divides again!” “重劈！” „Maneuver!” “回旋！” „Standard keeps off!” “格挡！” ...... …… He sweats profusely, every day eats, massive nutrition build, is a taller and straighter height, the capable solid muscle, both eyes none is bright, before is not, that type overdraws the life strength empty strong, strong that but passes from the skeleton. 他挥汗如雨,每日饱餐,还有大量营养堆砌起来的,是越加挺拔的身高,还有精壮结实的肌肉,双目精光炯炯,不是以前那种透支生命力的虚壮,而是从骨骼中透出来的强壮。 Like this is full of the masculine charm William, naturally captured many attention. 这样充满男性魅力的威廉,自然吸引了不少目光。 At least Wu Ming felt that on street, received ‚eye salute’ were more, Aunt Roya Sophia of family/home finds an excuse to his here frequently. 至少吴明就感觉走在街道上,收到的‘注目礼’更加多了,罗亚大婶家的索菲亚更是经常借故到他这里来。 „Hi!
