With An Cheng joining them, there was no quiet time for the four of them as they walked on the road.

Lin Yan looked at An Cheng, who was enthusiastic and thoughtful, and felt a lot of pressure. He must have regarded her as an ancestor.

I didn't expect that he, a tough guy, could be so careful and considerate.

Huo Yang and Lu Yu thought that they were really inferior. They also liked to respect Lin Yan, but they would never be able to do what An Cheng did.

Lu Yu glared at An Cheng, "Please hold back. Lin Yan's brows furrowed even if he didn't look at it."

An Cheng said nonchalantly: "What do you know? It's rare to see Lin Yan, and I really can't help it."

Lin Yan looked around as he walked, "Ancheng, do you know what's different here?"

"It really does exist." As an avid fan, An Cheng also knew that Lin Yan was interested in all new things, so he strongly recommended: "I heard from people in Daban Village that if you go straight over the mountains and through the depressions, there is a place outside the world.

.It is said that the people there have no worries about food and drink, they are well-dressed, and everyone lives a good life. It seems to be called the Kingdom of Wu."

"Is it true? How do the people in Daban Village know?" Lin Yan suddenly became more energetic. This was the first time he heard about the existence of other countries. If it is true, he must go and see it.

An Cheng scratched his head, "I don't know if it's true or not. This is passed down from our ancestors in Daban Village. I don't know how many generations it has been passed down. I heard that a man from Wu State came to Daban Village a long time ago.

, and finally died in the village."

"Have people from Daban Village really seen people from Wu State?"

"should be."

Lin Yan nodded and asked, "How many days will it take to get to Daban Village?" She couldn't wait, this information was too important.

"Seven or eight days. According to our schedule, we can get there in seven days." An Cheng looked at Lin Yan, who was a little excited, and his heart moved slightly, "Do you want to go to Wu Kingdom?"

"Of course, a place that can be called a country must be more prosperous and lively than our barren mountains and mountains." Lin Yan's eyes flashed, "There must be things we need there."

Lu Yu was puzzled, "We have everything now. We don't have to worry about food and drink. We are living a good life. What else are we missing?"

The three of them all looked at Lin Yan, wondering why she was so excited.

Lin Yan: "...you don't understand, you will understand when you see it. Our current life is still far from enough, and material is still too scarce. If we want to change, it will take time. Maybe we can do it on our own, but

It’s too long. Since there is something ready-made, why don’t we learn from it.”

The three of them seem to understand, and they are very satisfied with their current lives. They all came from the savage era, and the changes over the years have made them extremely happy.

It is not easy to walk from the coal mine to Daban Village. It is all a mountain trail. In some places there is even no road, so you have to feel your way around.

Fortunately, people from Daban Village often walk here and have left marks along the way, otherwise we would really not be able to find the place.

While walking and stopping along the way, ferocious beasts appeared frequently in the mountains and fields. As long as they did not actively hurt anyone, they would ignore them. If they encountered ferocious ones, they would need to work together to strangle them.

There were many dangers. When taking a break, Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh: "The people in Daban Village really risk their lives to make money."

"That's right. Most of them are in groups, and they don't dare to move around when there are less people." An Cheng shared the same sentiment, "I heard that Daban Village is too poor, and some people are planning to settle next to the coal mine. This way they don't have to run back and forth.

, it’s also close to Mingcheng, and some people even want to settle down directly in Mingcheng.”

Huo Yang agreed: "These people have good ideas. Mingcheng will definitely get better and better in the future, and moving out of the mountains will only be better. This road is too difficult to walk, and it is very inconvenient to go back and forth."

Lu Yu: "Yes, whether it's in Mingcheng or the coal mine, it's better than in the mountains."

When Lin Yan remained silent, An Cheng asked, "You don't want them to move?"

Lin Yan shook his head, "No, of course they want to move. I'm thinking about Wu Kingdom. How many days until we arrive?"

"It's almost there, we'll be there in two days." An Cheng thought of Daban Village, "Actually, the people in Daban Village are only a little better off than we were at that time. They live in caves, wrapped in leaves, and

They eat wild fruits and meat in the mountains, and some people still eat raw meat."

Thinking of what he saw when he went to Daban Village, An Cheng couldn't bear it, "It would be great if they could all move out. All the young and middle-aged people came out to dig coal, and the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled had an even harder time. When we first recruited people,

, those people are all vying to come, but looking at their thin appearance, how dare they want them."

They were both people who came from poverty. Huo Yang and Lu Yu could imagine what An Cheng said. It would be best if they could move out.

Mingcheng is under construction. If they can move in, they will be able to catch up with the good times. Adults will have more opportunities to make money, children will have the opportunity to go to school, and the fate of the family will completely change.

Two days later in the evening, Lin Yan and others arrived at Daban Village.

Sure enough, it was as dilapidated and poor as An Cheng said. An Cheng came here once, knew the people, and found a cave to repair it for a night.

They brought three plump gray rabbits into the village, gave two away as gifts, and kept the remaining one for themselves.

The next day, Lin Yan asked An Cheng to take her to find someone to learn about Wu Kingdom early in the morning.

There are very few outsiders coming to Daban Village. As soon as I step out, I am surrounded by villagers.

The villagers were extremely envious as they pointed around them, especially their clothes.

The skinny children had curiosity and envy in their big eyes, and Lin Yan felt a little uncomfortable looking at them. They were still very small, with dark bodies wrapped in big leaves, and some were naked, which made people unbearable to look at.

Most of the young and middle-aged people in Daban Village went to the coal mines, and the rest had to go out early in the morning and come back late to hunt, leaving only a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people in the village.

I met several old people and they were very sure about the visitors from the Wu Kingdom. They also took out the relics left by the visitors from the Wu Kingdom and confirmed that it was a parchment scroll.

Lin Yan opened the parchment with trembling hands. It was about twenty centimeters long and ten centimeters wide. It was a small piece with ink lines and a few lines of unknown handwriting.

It looked like a map, and the handwriting was unknown, but Lin Yan was sure that it indeed proved the existence of the Wu Kingdom.

The person in the rumor really visited Daban Village and left behind a parchment, which may be a map from the Kingdom of Wu.

No matter what, the Wu Kingdom is real. This made Lin Yan extremely excited. After more than ten years in this world, he finally got news about the outside world.

No matter how far away she is from Wu Kingdom, she will definitely find it.

Lin Yan asked An Cheng to tell the villagers about the outside world and encourage them to move away.

Whether they are old people or children, they are really excited. But the long journey, many crises, and the unknown future make them worried.

An Cheng received Lin Yan's permission and promised the villagers that he would find a place for them to settle down.

After visiting the valley where sugar cane grows, Lin Yan prepared for transplanting according to the methods provided by the Science and Technology Museum.
