The apocalypse descended, and after enduring numerous hardships, Chu Xi lost all her loved ones, barely surviving.
Fifteen years into the apocalypse, accustomed to being low-key and cautious,...
Looking at the miserable appearance of the mercenaries in the valley below, Chu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Shi Peng's mission this time was considered to be over.
Shi Peng was completely unaware that he was entangled by her powerful friendly force that appeared out of nowhere, simply because the mission report was difficult to write.
Looking at the severely damaged battlefield in the valley, Shi Peng was speechless for a long time.
Such a powerful international mercenary group was completely wiped out. If this uncontrollable force showed signs of treason, the security of this land would be even more dangerous. Wouldn't the people of Guang Province be in dire straits? So he had to stay...
Looking at the marching tent that Shi Peng had set up in the valley, Chu Xi felt helpless. He had originally thought that if he could eliminate this enemy group sooner, Shi Peng would be able to go back earlier, but he didn't expect that he would stay there permanently?
Do I need to explain? Thinking that Shi Peng might look at her as if she were a monster, she couldn't accept it.
But there's really no other way.
Chu Xi, who had followed Shi Peng for two days, became bored watching him search the battlefield bit by bit every day, looking for some traces.
Chu Xi, who was bored but loved to wander around, decided to take a leisurely stroll in this free and unfettered forest...
The mountains and forests at this time had not yet suffered the destructive development that occurred in later generations.
The mountains and rivers are picturesque, birds are singing, and flowers are blooming. The scenery is beautiful, integrating forests, strange peaks, sea of fog, hanging rocks, waterfalls, high gorges and flat water, natural mineral water, as well as cultural landscapes and beautiful myths and legends.
The vast forest is full of towering ancient trees, dense streams and gurgling water. It is rich in animal and plant resources. Forest landscapes such as fir groups, South China five-needle pine groups, alpine boxwood groups, yew groups, and alpine rhododendron groups can be seen everywhere.
Large wild animals such as black bears and wild boars often appear here, and there are also rumors of mysterious wild men.
Guang Province has a mid-subtropical monsoon climate. Now it is spring, and the mountains are full of blooming flowers and the fragrance is everywhere.
The environment is beautiful, the climate is pleasant, and the water quality is pure and natural. If a few villas are built here, it will definitely be a rare place to live in seclusion.
There are also many Miao and Dong villages around the mountains and forests, with strong ethnic minority customs and simple folk customs. There are houses built on rocks, stilt wooden houses, thousands of acres of terraced fields, and lover pines.
Chu Xi also happened to come across a village performing Miao songs and playing Miao flutes, and she visited the scene with great interest. The beautiful and elegant Chu Xi was warmly welcomed and was almost dragged on a "blind date" by the enthusiastic ethnic comrades.
Chu Xi strolled around but didn't run too far. After all, Shi Peng was still nearby, and she couldn't afford to get confused again. She just searched the area to see if there were any other fish that had slipped through the net.
I also took the opportunity to go to my neighbor Yuenan Country to visit and collect some rare fruits, animals and plants. Of course, I couldn't give up some of their valuable items. Anyway, Yuenan Country is an ungrateful person who can never be fed. They always do some shitty things. It seems that the last small-scale war has not been a few years ago.
This is a collection of bronze artifacts from the Dong Son culture, which are said to be the earliest traceable source of Vietnamese civilization officially recognized by the Kingdom of Vietnam, that is, the Hung King period.
Chu Xi also only collected some old objects that interested him, such as bronze drums and some bronze artifacts with decorative patterns, reflecting primitive religious worship, architectural appearance, life scenes, etc.
Most of these treasures are distributed in the northern part of Yuenan Country, so Chu Xi did not hesitate to give them money, and of course did not empty their pockets. At this time, they had not paid enough attention to these national treasures.
That day, Chu Xi traveled almost all over the western mountainous area of Guangdong Province and collected a lot of wild animals. Of course, she only wanted to enrich the species in the space and did not take them all away.
She captured several pairs of slow lorises, black leaf monkeys, white-headed leaf monkeys, and eastern black-crested gibbons. She wanted to try whether the spiritual spring in space could increase their intelligence. Wouldn't that mean there would be more housekeepers?
After touring the country, she began to miss the traditional cultural relics she had seen in Yuenan Country last time.
Buddhist and Taoist temple art is also very popular in Yuenan Country, and there are many Buddhist temples in the country.
Their Buddha statues and deity statues are both stone and wood carvings.
However, most of them have been renovated over the ages and their appearance has changed.
While continuously absorbing Chinese Buddhist art, Yuenan Kingdom also formed its own unique Buddhist art expression form, such as the Nine-Level Lotus Pagoda that imitates the Chakravartin and the Four Dharma Buddha beliefs that integrate shamanistic characteristics.
Chu Xi wandered into a Buddhist temple again. It was bustling with people, and the incense was very prosperous. However, judging by the clothes worn by the believers, most of them were poor people.
Chu Xi, who had some language barriers, did not chat with them.
I just wandered around the temple and appreciated the exotic traditional culture and scenery.
Chu Xi, who had "picked up" a few antiques, left the Buddhist temple feeling somewhat guilty.
But I saw some small vendors shouting and selling things in a small square not far from the Buddhist temple.
Chu Xi walked up with great interest. It turned out to be ancient Chinese copper coins, which might have been brought by those who fled.
An old man in a turban was sitting casually on the ground, with a pile of things that looked like copper coins in front of him. They were mainly too broken and had probably been soaked in water, so they had some rust.
The copper coins were placed in a large earthenware jar, some of which had not been poured out and some mud on top.
Chu Xi pretended to pick up a few and wiped the surface with a handkerchief, revealing a few words faintly, such as "Kangxi Tongbao, Xianfeng Chongbao", with a square hole in the middle.
The copper coins are not in very good condition. Some are scattered, while others are tied together in tubes. The diameters are different, and the thicknesses are also different.
Chu Xi didn't look at it carefully. Since it was an "antique" from China, since he saw it, he should take it back.
But firstly, there was the language barrier. With her second-grade education, communication would definitely be difficult in this remote corner of the world. Secondly, she didn't have the currency of this country, so she could only remain silent...
