Chapter 729 The Bright Moon in a Foreign Land
"Mr. Fang, there have been a lot of strange things happening in Jiangnan City recently. See if you are free..."
Just when Fang Yu was about to go back to the room, Qi Qi Brother said suddenly.
Fang Yu was slightly startled, thought for a moment, and said.
“I’ll go take a look when I’m free.”
"Okay!"
I wonder if it was because of the previous mistakes that caused Fang Yu to become less enthusiastic about such false rumors.
But it’s just that the priority of processing has been lowered. After the game is stable, he will take time to check it out.
After all, he has really experienced extraordinary events with his own life, and has really seen demons here in Blue Star, so Fang Yu is still willing to have more contact with this kind of thing, just in case.
This side of Blue Star is different from the world of seeking magic.
The people here in Blue Star are used to living a comfortable life, and they are ordinary people. If they really encounter a demon, they actually have no power to fight back. It is quite harmful, and it is normal for them to die.
So even if it is just a rumor, Fang Yu must pay attention to it to avoid causing more casualties and to contain the harm in the cradle.
But before that, he had to go back to the Demon Seeking World to ensure Ding Hui's safety and the condition of the road.
Back in the room, his body decomposed and Fang Yu disappeared into the room.
The mobile phone he placed on the table lit up not long after.
That was the message sent to him by Song Li, who had just added her contact information not long ago.
……
Broken Chongguan.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Fang Yu felt something was wrong.
The carriage is so smooth.
It's nothing like the state he was in when he left the city before.
"Ms. sir, are you awake?"
Ding Hui tilted her head slightly, stopped her work of destroying the sarcoma, and said with a smile.
Fang Yu nodded slightly, and then opened the window curtain doubtfully.
"Did something happen? How..."
Fang Yu discovered it before he finished speaking.
They are lining up.
Yes! Their carriages are actually queuing up!
And there were quite a few teams in front of them, so they only lined up in the middle.
"Master, I just told my wife that we will have to wait at least half an hour before it is our turn."
Quan Yingnan rode over and whispered, his voice steady and calm, as if the scene in front of him was nothing unusual.
But...but, this is the wild!
Fang Yu frowned: "Where did so many people come from?"
As soon as these words came out, Quan Yingnan was stunned.
"Master, this is Suichong Pass. If we want to go to Beijing, we have to cross the wilderness mountains, otherwise we can't bypass Suichong Pass along the official road."
Fang Yu's heart skipped a beat.
It turns out that we have reached the checkpoint. I asked where did so many people come from.
Speaking of which, Ding Hui seemed to have told herself about this place. According to Fang Yu's understanding, it is similar to the ancient expressway toll entrance.
Official roads were spread throughout the Great Xia Dynasty, and personnel from the Yudi Government were regularly maintained, including cleaning up monsters on the roads and ensuring safety. There was no charge for these because the benefits were transferred to local finances. .
In other words, the benefits are given to the Yudi Governments in various places. How the Yudi Governments use these official channels to charge fees and operate them are all the affairs of the Yudi Governments in each place.
Generally speaking, this part of the money is included in the cost of entering the city and is considered part of the tax.
The commission is probably not high, because according to Fang Yu's entry into Leiting City or other towns, he actually doesn't charge much money.
But a little adds up to a lot.
The flow of people in a town directly determines the size of the town. If everyone collects a little money and gathers it together, it can be a huge sum of money.
In addition, if some goods are overweight or something, there will be some additional charges. Unless they are locals who are born and raised, they can get discounts and exemptions. Others have to pay for it when entering and leaving the town.
In addition to the official road, there are actually checkpoints at each key node of the official road.
These checkpoints are not only to ensure the safety of official roads and resist demons, but also to collect high tolls and increase fiscal revenue.
Also, despite the fact that the level is just a thick high wall, there are quite a lot of soldiers stationed on it, and they should all have real materials, so they dare to perform tasks in such a dangerous place.
So there are not many people who dare to cause trouble.
As for the monsters, you have to ask about the various cannon holes, giant crossbows, and even the strength of the monster-killing formations that are all over the level.
Judging from the uneven impact marks on the high wall of the level and the degree of partial fragmentation of the wall, the monsters that came to break through the level were not without them, and they might even be very strong.
However, Suichong Pass is still standing here, which shows that Suichong Pass has withstood the waves of impact.
"Master, you think the team is moving too slowly, are you tired of waiting?"
While Fang Yu and Quan Yingnan were chatting, the top of their head [Mao Xiahan: 999/999. 】The girl with the health bar came over slowly on horseback.
Fang Yu looked at her doubtfully, thinking she had some good ideas, but he didn't expect that Mao Xiahan pulled the horse's head, stopped the horse in place, and then raised his hand and pointed.
"In that carriage, Mr. Xiao, Shanggong Xiao of the Xiao family in Sifang City is sitting! Who knows about the Xiao family in Sifang City! His Xiao family is in front of us. Do you have any objections?"
" And the caravan in front of the Xiao family's carriage, did you see the flags flying on them? Mi! The grain stores in the four cities and eight towns! The food is all provided by Mijia stores! If we offend Mijia, we can’t even get a bite of food in the four cities and eight towns! Are we able to offend such important people? Or is it that the master’s status is so amazing that we can make way for him?”
“Even Mijia stores, which have businesses in four cities and eight towns, have only reached this position. There are people waiting in line in front of them. You don’t need me to remind you what kind of big shot you are, right?” The pawn shop, and the unpretentious little black carriage in front of so many big names...each one is not simple! It’s not easy, sir!”
Mao Xiahan was young, but seemed to have a lot of experience. She talked eloquently to the flags of the houses in front of her, and she became proud as she spoke. , as if these terms came out of her mouth, she was on the same level and of the same generation as these big shots.
In the intoxication, the eyes that glanced slightly from the corner of his eyes seemed to be a bit contemptuous.
Fang Yu looked at her doubtfully, with a confused look on his face.
Does this guy have a familiar personality?
I didn’t even ask her that many questions.
Could it be that... I have been queuing here for too long and am feeling exhausted?
It doesn't look professional at first glance. Look at the other guards accompanying him. They are calm and scattered around the carriage without saying a word. Although they are yawning and looking quite relaxed, they are at least more professional than Mao Xiahan in attitude.
It seemed that Mao Xiahan was afraid that Mao Xiahan's remarks would affect his reputation, mainly Quan Yingnan's personal reputation, Quan Yingnan said quickly.
"Master, don't listen to her nonsense. Those big caravans lined up in front of us just because they came early and lined up early. Master, look at the caravans lined up behind us, don't they also have names? If they don’t wait in line behind us like this big caravan, are we more impressive than this big caravan?”
No, obviously not.
Fang Yu stretched his head out and looked back. There was indeed a large caravan of hundreds of people lined up behind his carriage.
And looking further ahead, after careful identification, in addition to the large teams Mao Xiahan mentioned, there are also many idle and unknown teams interspersed in various positions of the front team.
So, it’s not that those big caravans are so awesome that they are in the front, but that Mao Xiahan recognizes the signboard of the big caravans, so that’s why the caravans in the front are so powerful.
After sorting out the relationship between the two parties, Fang Yu couldn't help but give Mao Xiahan a white look.
Unexpectedly, Mao Xiahan was still not convinced. He sat on the horse, took off the reins, folded his hands around his chest, and muttered.
"Others are just capable! Why line up early... If we want to line up early, we have to give up our seats to those big shots!"
Fang Yu was speechless. This guy has little knowledge and is vain. He is not old or young.
If it weren’t for the trouble at that time, the short guy picked someone up and the tall guy picked someone at random, this guy wouldn’t even be qualified to be a member of the team.
But it doesn’t matter, the strength is there, just do it when it’s time to do it, otherwise you will settle the score with her.
Waving his hands, Fang Yu was too lazy to listen to their continued talk and retracted into the carriage.
As soon as he got back to the carriage, he found Ding Hui staring at him and smiling.
When Fang Yu touched his face, there was nothing dirty on his face.
“What’s wrong?”
Fang Yu asked strangely.
"Nothing, I just feel..."
Ding Hui leaned over.
There is not much space in the carriage, so Ding Hui naturally presses closer to him.
“Should we also put up a flag with the word ‘Diao’ written on it? What do you think, Mr. Xianggong?”
Fang Yu rolled his eyes.
You also write the word Diao, why am I still a Diao family?
"Whatever you like."
Ding Hui likes to toss, so just let her do it. Fang Yu doesn't care about this little thing at all.
"My husband is really boring and tight. I don't know who can bear you except me."
Ding Hui covered her mouth and smiled softly.
Fang Yu suddenly realized that his answer just now was a bit confusing.
But after the words were spoken, he didn't know whether to make amends or not.
And just when he was thinking about such a trivial matter, he suddenly seemed to notice something, and suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Ding Hui tightly.
The next moment...
Boom! ! !
The carriage jolted violently, as if the ground was shaking violently.
Although Ding Hui was a little frightened, her mood was quite stable.
The two looked at each other.
“I’ll go out and take a look.”
Pa.
Ding Hui grabbed Fang Yu's hand with her backhand.
"No! Sir, this is Suichong Pass, which is an important pass of the Great Xia Dynasty. It leads to the central part of the dynasty and to the frontiers of the dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is one of the core passes of the Great Xia Dynasty."
“This place is so tightly defended that no ordinary monster can pass through it. "
"So no matter what happens, there is no need for us to take action. We can just leave it to the people at Suichong Pass, otherwise it will attract attention and cause unnecessary trouble. "
< br>Ding Hui explained carefully, while Fang Yu smiled and patted the back of her hand gently.
“Don’t worry, I’m just looking at the situation and will never take action.”
Can you rest assured... Every time you see a demon, you rush forward as if you saw money.
Ding Hui's expression was a bit complicated, but based on Fang Yu's trust, she nodded slightly and let go of her hand.
"Watch the others and tell them not to cause trouble."
"I know."
Fang Yu got off the carriage and went out.
When he looked up, he saw something being suppressed in the circular pit not far ahead.
Above the circular pit, about one meter high, there was a person floating.
"What a [Nine Level Builder and Heavy Demon]! I have just fallen asleep for a moment, and you came out to disturb my leisure time!"
Wearing a Taoist uniform and a long beard, but giving people He has a sly look, rather than the image of a master with a celestial spirit.
This appearance is far inferior to that of Taoist Qingling from Sunset City.
But unfortunately, their blood volume is the same.
[Zi Guzhi: 1000/1000. 】
“Believer!”
“It’s the ancient wise Taoist! The ancient wise Taoist from Sanyang Taoist Temple!”
“That’s the believer?! Walking in the air , a believer who spreads blood around and moves with spirit!”
The people in the long queue below made an uproar and started discussing in low voices.
In the wild, warriors are common, but demon warriors are not.
As for believers who are similar to demon warriors but more mysterious, you may not be able to see one for several years.
That’s why the appearance of Guzhi Taoist seemed so effective.
"Master, that is a master, a master among masters! None of us in the team can be his opponent."
Quan Yingnan quietly came to Fang Yu and whispered.
Fang Yu glanced at him and said nothing.
Fang Yu knew that this guy was kindly reminding him, but he was somewhat premature.
After seeing Fang Yu's reaction, Quan Yingnan immediately retreated in a sensible manner.
As the leader of the escort team, he has confirmed the general strength of the escort team. Now he comes up to say that the team cannot beat the ancient ancient wisdom Taoist above. Instead, he is a qualified leader who should do what he should do and provide. information intelligence.
But the paying master didn't care, and he couldn't say anything more.
Quan Yingnan retreated, but Mao Xiahan came closer.
I saw her hands clasped together, with a look of yearning and excitement on her face.
"That's it...that's the legendary believer! I wonder if that master has any apprentices. It would be great if he would accept me as his apprentice..."
Mao Xiahan murmured to himself In words and feelings, he didn't notice Fang Yu's existence at all, or in other words, from this position, he could see the grace of Guzhi Taoist more clearly.
Although the rest of the escort team also looked up at Taoist Guzhi, they just looked at him and did not say anything. They were obviously more calm.
Only Mao Xiahan is a bit insignificant.
Fang Yu felt a little funny. He thought Mao Xiahan was a bit reckless before. Now it seems that it is just that he is young and worships the strong. It is not a big problem. When his experience increases, it will be fine. Be more mature.
As for Taoist Guzhi, Fang Yu glanced at him and stopped looking at him.
Because he couldn't tell the details of Guzhi Taoist just from his blood volume.
So, it depends on the opponent.
Look at the big pit.
A demon that seemed to be pressed into a square trap was struggling violently in the pit.
