"Goro, this is..."
On the day before the winter solstice, Wang Lan was looking at the makeup on her face in the mirror. Wang Wu walked to her dressing table and placed a box on her dressing table that she had never seen before.
Wang Lan stopped, looked at the box in front of him, and asked curiously.
"Something that can help you cultivate your true energy." Wang Wu replied, and then looked at Wang Lan's face.
Wang Lan had never put on makeup before, but these days she put on makeup every day for the first time. She always asked the maid to help her put it on, and she didn't know how to do it herself.
"Okay, does it look good?" Wang Lan noticed Wang Wu's gaze and lowered her head shyly and asked.
As for Wang Wu's words about 'something that will allow her to cultivate her true energy', her priority is obviously not as high as whether Wang Wu thinks she is good-looking or not.
"You look good." Wang Wu nodded, "But you look better without makeup." As he said that, he touched the scar that was obviously faded by makeup.
"If you don't like Lan'er and become a true warrior in the future, this scar will naturally disappear. But to me, this scar does not make you ugly at all."
"I like it very much." After caressing it for a while, Wang Wu put his mouth on it and pressed it.
Wang Lan was obviously confused by this. He almost fainted and his face was so red that it almost steamed up. This is what Wang Lan can't stand the most.
"Then, then I'll unload it now..." With his head spinning, Wang Lan finally came to his senses when he said this.
Then she suddenly looked at the medicine box on the table with disbelief in her eyes: "This, this..."
"Yes, after eating this, your true veins will be broadened, giving you the qualifications to enter the true realm." Wang Wu nodded.
The effect of this thing must be there, and it is very good, because Wang Wu himself is also taking it. The master bought two boxes for Wang Wu, saying that he also needed to use them.
Because Wang Wu's cultivation speed was a bit slow, he felt that as a monster, Wang Wu's physical fitness must be stronger than that of humans. It was impossible for Wang Wu's cultivation speed to be at the same level as ordinary people.
So he mailed a copy to Wang Wuye.
Wang Wu started eating it the day before yesterday. He originally had the mentality of giving it a try, thinking that for a box of more than 50 yuan, he would not suffer any loss.
But what he didn't expect was that this box of medicine, which cost more than fifty yuan, gave him a huge surprise.
Because he could clearly feel the widening of the meridians in his body, the flow and movement of the true energy was much faster than before.
As for why this medicine has an effect on monsters like myself and humans from other worlds, the answer given by the master is also very consistent with the style of their world:
[Bo Shenggui forced your mother to die: What nonsense are you talking about? Medicine is just for people, can you take it even if you are an animal? The medicine that animals take only needs to ensure that they do not die, but the medicine that humans take is not as good as that. 】
[Bosheng Turtle forced your mother to die: Or are you a monster in the form of Hajimi, then you may not be able to eat it, and you may die if you eat it, I have to change your medicine]
[Bosheng Turtle forced your mother to die: But your human friend must be edible]
[Bo Shenggui forced your mother to die: Oh, yes, if you want to love other Hajimi to compete for territory and spouse rights, General Ban Pianmai will do]
[Stop Cave Monster: ...Thank you, Master]
[Bo Shenggui forced your mother to die: By the way, what kind of monster are you? 】
【Stop Cave Monster:...】
Apparently his master, Qin Xiang, or Tian Xin, had some unknown abstract hobbies, but Wang Wu did not comment on this.
As for what kind of monster he is, Wang Wu thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out how to answer it. He couldn't say he was a human... ah no, a monster. So he returned to the 'insect demon'.
This lie was not exposed by the master, because he did not reply to the message later.
Returning to reality, looking at Wang Lan in front of her, she found that her eyes were red now, and she shed tears immediately afterwards.
"What's wrong, why are you crying?" Wang Wu hugged her gently and kissed the tears on her face.
"I, I, I..." Wang Lan buried her head in Wang Wu's arms, "Wulang, I..."
"Okay, okay, don't cry." Wang Wu gently patted Wang Lan's back and comforted him for a while before Wang Lan's mood stabilized.
Wang Wu picked up the packaging box on the table, opened it, and took out three tablets of medicine inside.
"Take one tablet a day, with water each time. Until these three tablets are eaten, a total of ninety days." As he spoke, Wang Wu squeezed out a tablet and brought it to Wang Lan's mouth: "Here."
After Wang Lan took it, Wang Wu went to bring Wang Lan a glass of water and fed her to drink it.
"No, just take it." Seeing Wang Lan trying to use his energy to refine the medicine in his belly, Wang Wu said with a smile, "You don't need to deliberately refine it, just do whatever you need to do."
"Wu Lang, I..." Seeing Wang Lan looking at her, as if she wanted to say something, Wang Wu interrupted her with a smile: "You and I shouldn't talk about repayments or anything like that, right?"
After saying that, he lowered his eyes and said jokingly: "But, it's okay..."
Hearing this, Wang Lan lowered her head shyly, "Well, then I'll put on my clothes and shoes and go to the martial arts field to practice for a while..."
"It's okay." Wang Wu stepped forward and hugged her gently, "I have a lot of time today, so I might as well..."

In the afternoon, Wang Wu was about to go out to buy something. There was no one on the street, and he happened to meet Li Yuan, who looked a little melancholy.
After the two chatted for a while, Li Yuan asked Wang Wu to have dinner together. Wang Wu naturally would not refuse such a good thing, and went directly to the fixed hotel Fangyi Pavilion with Li Yuan.
The monk is indeed rich. My family spends all day making high-end ingredients at Fangyi Pavilion, and the meal alone costs only a few thousand to ten thousand yuan a day.
Although the accounts cannot be calculated in this way, because the consumption of Fangyi Pavilion is already very high. Under normal circumstances, a monk only spends a few hundred to a thousand yuan on food for a day.
"I didn't expect that Brother Wang would already have entered the real realm after not seeing him for such a short period of time." At the dinner table, Li Yuan looked at Wang Wu in front of him and sighed with envy.
"Haha, after all, I am a true warrior." Wang Wu smiled, "Speaking of which, have you found someone to take over Brother Li's sect mission?"
After hearing Wang Wu's words, Li Yuan glanced at Wang Wu with a wry smile on his face.
Then, he picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. After chewing it, he sighed and shook his head: "I've been worrying about this these days."
Hearing that the other party's shipping task had not yet been taken over by a commercial bank, and thinking of the high remuneration for that order, Wang Wu couldn't help but feel excited: "Then... why not leave this matter to me?"
Li Yuan stopped his chopsticks and looked at Wang Wu: "Brother Wang, this..."
"If no one takes this order, I can take it." Wang Wu nodded.
"But that's a big batch, Brother Wang." Li Yuan hesitated for a while, "And it's already the beginning of winter, and there's not even half an hour of daylight..."
"It doesn't matter." Wang Wu raised his hand to interrupt him, "You don't have to worry about me. Since I dare to take it, I am sure of it."
"This..." Li Yuan could see obvious emotion in his eyes, but he still hesitated, "But this is indeed a bit too dangerous, and besides worldly gold and silver, I don't have much..."
"This is what I want." Wang Wu interrupted him again, "Brother Li, if you feel sorry for yourself, you can give me more."
Li Yuan did not refuse again. He looked at Wang Wu gratefully and bowed his hands solemnly to him:
"Brother Wang is loyal! Li Yuan will definitely repay Brother Wang if he has the opportunity in the future!!"
"You should first tell me how much my remuneration can be increased." Wang Wu said with a smile.
After hearing this, Li Yuan smiled, then took out five emerald green gold ingots from Qiankun's sleeves and placed them on the table: "This is fifteen gold, so I will make a deposit for Brother Wang first."
"Whether it succeeds or not, these fifteen pieces of gold belong to Brother Wang." He said solemnly.
"And if the goods are successfully delivered, I will pay Brother Wang ten more gold later." As he said that, Li Yuan also showed a look of shame on his face, "I am also ashamed. I, Li Yuan, am not from a farmer's family, so I can't give much. Worldly gold and silver..."
"Good brother!!"
But before Li Yuan could finish his words, Wang Wu held his hand with a look of emotion on his face.
"Brother, don't say much." Wang Wu said: "Let's finish our meal quickly, and I will treat you to this meal. The sooner the delivery is done, the better, but we can't delay it!"
Li Yuan looked at the excited Wang Wu and didn't know what to say, but he was still very moved.
Then, he nodded:
"Okay!"
The time soon came to half past eight in the evening.
After some preparations, Wang Wuye and Li Yuan came to the east gate of Hedong County, preparing to pack the goods into boxes and then go out to deliver the goods.
"That's quite a lot." Wang Wu sighed as he looked at the ten carriages of goods in front of him.
Wang Wu didn't know what was inside, and he didn't even care. If you do the math, this is almost the same amount as two heavy-duty trucks back home.
Considering the situation here, if you want to use monks, you will need more than a dozen people. If you want to use the Qiankun Ring, you will have to wear a large space ring equivalent to nearly one million in hometown currency, and one is not enough.
The destination of this batch of goods is the Qingping Sect's residence in Yuanqing Lake. A large amount of supplements needs to be sent to the monks there. It also has to pass through Sanhe County, Yuchuan County, and Tianbin County on the way, where new goods have to be loaded.
Qingpingzong's request is to deliver the goods before Xiaohan. After Xiaohan, half of the reward will be deducted for one day overtime, all will be deducted in two days, and the reward will be deducted starting from three days.
When the time comes, the sect’s debt will be repaid.
"That's all?" Wang Wu turned his head and looked at Li Yuan beside him, who nodded.
"That's all." He said, and then advised Wang Wu:
"But there's no need to rush for time, right? Even if Brother Wang is already a real master, walking at night is probably a bit dangerous. Why not wait until tomorrow? Even if there is no daylight during the day, it will be better than late at night... ”
"Don't worry." Wang Wu smiled and patted Li Yuan on the shoulder, then walked to the container unloaded from the carriage and put his hand on it.
A large iron container, five meters long and 1.5 meters high, contains the goods Wang Wu will deliver today.
Wang Wu is sometimes very curious. If you say this world is developed, then it must be developed, such as air battleships and intercontinental missiles with the speed of the fourth universe.
Judging from the power of the intercontinental missile, it may not be a big problem to directly destroy Hedong County with one missile.
Not to mention there are a bunch of superhumans who can fly at supersonic speeds. The three monks he saw at Dead Soul Mountain that day impressed him deeply.
For a civilization of this level, even if it just moved the country of Zhou Dynasty there, it would probably be more than enough to defeat the whole earth.
Sometimes, especially now, when looking at the combination of the carriage and the iron container, Wang Wu would feel a very strange feeling in his heart.
Not just now, but also in daily life.
Behind? Clearly not behind. Advanced? Apparently very advanced too. But is it weird? It's really strange.
Ten carriages, each with two iron containers. After loading everything into the storage room of the spherical fortress, Wang Wu clapped his hands.
Yes, the spherical fortress can directly transmit the things it touches from the outside into the cargo hold, and the cargo hold of the spherical fortress is quite large.
The volume is about two hundred cubic meters, which is quite enough.
"It's done." After everything was loaded into the fortress, Wang Wu clapped his hands and rode on the horse given to him by the Wang family for travel. This is Wang Lan's beloved horse, which is said to be very spiritual.
I opened the map and took a look. It was also a gift from the Wang family. Li Yuan also gave a copy, but it was not as detailed as the one given by the Wang family.
Wang Lan, like Li Yuan, also advised Wang Wu to leave tomorrow, but Wang Wu suppressed him severely and could not utter a word of rebuttal.
The city gate slowly opened. Wang Wu put away the map, took out a jade slip and showed it to the soldiers guarding the city.
The latter took the jade slip respectfully, went through a simple process, returned the things to Wang Wu, and came to the door to see Wang Wu off.
"Brother Wang! Have a nice trip!!"
Li Yuan waved his hand behind and watched Wang Wu leave. Wang Wu did not look back, but he also waved his hand. He rode his horse slowly into the darkness outside the city, but at this moment, a noisy sound came from the city gate behind him:
"We also have permission to leave the city! Master Jun! Look, this is what the county captain Zhang Fei signed for us..."
"Get away, get away! Lord Situ has already said that except for special circumstances, Hedong County has been closed to entry and exit since a few days ago. If you want to go out of town, go find Lord Situ of the Demon Suppression Army!" The soldier said no. A patient voice sounded.
"Yes, yes... Captain Zhang..."
"Fuck, do you want to die?! Back off! Let go!!"
There was a quarrel behind him, and Wang Wu turned around to look into the city. He had long thought that he had heard the voice behind him somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
So I turned around and took a look, and sure enough.
Not an acquaintance, but we did meet once. When Wang Wu came to Hedong County for the first time, he met a caravan outside the city, which seemed to be the Lei Family Trading Company.
There was a big man in the caravan who held him and talked for a long time. He seemed to be named Lei... Lei...
Wang Wu thought for a while, and then remembered the name: Lei Yuan.
At this moment, the man named Lei Yuan was clutching the hand of the soldier who had inspected his jade slips with a look of pleading.
"Please! Master Bing!! I really have to deliver this batch of goods to Lindong County before tomorrow, Master Bing!!! If I can't, if I can't deliver it, then our Lei family will It’s over!”
Lindong County is the nearest town after leaving the east gate of Hedong County, only fifty kilometers away.
There are many mines in the Bone Forest opposite it, and many people in the county rely on the work in the mines to make a living. That area is also the place where human traces can be seen most often in the Bone Forest.
The monsters won't go there because the defense is very tight, and the owners of the mine organize monks to sweep the area every year.
Wang Wu looked back for a while and then turned back, not intending to pay attention to what was happening behind him.
After Lindong County is Sanhe County, which is Wang Wu's first destination for this delivery. He needs to pick up another batch of goods there.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Continuing forward, the speed is not fast, and the horse underneath him walks slowly on the road, very leisurely.
Wang Wu was not in a hurry because he was checking Moments in his mind.
He also changed his phone card some time ago, and it still has the same number, but now the Internet is no longer stuck, and it is smooth most of the time.
The monthly traffic is 15G, the fee is 50 yuan, and the free call package is... Well, this is not important.
The money in his bank card was getting less and less, and Wang Wu also began to think, is there any way to make some money? In other words, can you recharge the world's silver into your card?
But if he directly deposited money, Wang Wu could not find the corresponding button in his wallet. But if you deposit it in a bank...
There is no such thing as a bank card here...wait.
Wang Wu suddenly thought of a commercial institution he had seen while shopping in Hedong County.
‘Qianzhuang’
Although the historical results are not ideal, Wang Wu also vaguely remembers... It seems that ancient money banks are almost equivalent to banks, right?
What if you deposit the money in a bank, and then enter the bank's order number into the bank card interface...
When he thought of this, Wang Wu's heart suddenly became hot. He quickly urged his horse to get off, and the horse named "Rouge" immediately started galloping on the official road.
Under the cover of night, the official roads of the Great Zhou Dynasty also glowed with a faint fluorescence, but they were not as bright as the avenue in Dead Soul Mountain.
Its light is dimmer, and perhaps less effective.
But even so, it was enough to make certain things wandering on both sides of the official road dare not approach.
The speed reached sixty, and Wang Wu started galloping on the official road on his horse. He didn't plan to run for long, he was just doing it for a show. After about an hour, he would take the horse back to the ball-shaped fortress.
But at this moment, behind Wang Wu, there was the sound of horse hooves.
Wang Wu turned around and found that it was Lei Yuan who had argued with the soldiers at the city gate before.
There was a look of joy on his face, but at the same time there was also deep fear.
There was a group of people behind him, many of whom were monks. There were three carriages in the cavalry, with three large boxes on them. Wang Wu didn't know exactly what was inside.
"There's someone watching from above, Goro."
Zi Yuan's voice rang in his mind. Wang Wu kept looking back at the group of people behind him. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and found that they were five monks he didn't recognize.
They are all very powerful, each one is at the same level as Yu Xin beside Situ Jin, and there is one who is far superior to Yu Xin.
Wang Wu didn't know what realm it was. It was obviously different from the aura in the bodies of the other four monks, but it still had the same aura, just very little.
Just like Situ Jin to those True Realm monks.
He turned around and continued forward, ignoring the group of people behind him.
"Quick, keep up with the person in front!"
After running all the way and finding Wang Wu who was not far from the cavalry in front, Lei Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief. Then he gave instructions to the people behind him.
Lei Wu was already in despair at the city gate. At the same time, I also regretted that I should not have accepted this order, let alone bet with that beast for the sake of my status in the family.
Now it seems that I have simply fallen into the opponent's trap.
Now he is already riding a tiger, and if he doesn't leave the city, his end will be worse than if he did. The other party made it clear that they were going to kill him and his whole family.
Originally, the bet was for the order after next spring, but due to inexplicable circumstances, it was moved forward to before tomorrow.
Although Lei Yuan has been thinking of various ways to see if it can be canceled or postponed in the past few days, it is obvious that it makes no sense.
He sighed and glanced at the guys behind him. Lei Yuan's mouth twitched and he wanted to cry.
These are all good brothers who have followed him for more than ten years. This trip out of the city is unlucky, but the brothers are still willing to accompany him, who has failed in the clan's internal fight, to die.
"Alas."
He turned around and sighed, looking at a figure that had been running in front of him, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
He heard about this today, so he temporarily ordered some people to go out with him to see if he could give it a try.
Lei Yuan, a young man with a heavenly appearance, was naturally impressed. After all, you would not see many people with such looks in your life. Monsters are another story.
If you meet a caravan going out to deliver goods on the road, if you happen to be on the road, most of them will choose to go together. This is not an unspoken rule, it is basically common sense.
After all, the more people there are, the stronger the armed force will be, and naturally the safer it will be.
Of course, bandits and robbers will also disguise themselves as delivery caravans and lurk in the caravans waiting for people, so there are risks.
He dared to go out of the city alone late at night, and he was still a true warrior with extraordinary strength. Not to mention, this guy definitely has all kinds of magic weapons.
Therefore, following the other party may be the only way to survive for this group of people.
As for taking the initiative to get close to the opponent to see if the opponent can join their team, Lei Yuan would never dare to think about such a thing.
The last time I dared to go up was because the opponent was obviously not that strong and was dressed simply.
Thinking so, Lei Yuan also accelerated the speed of his mount. But he and his cavalry did not dare to get too close, and kept a few hundred meters away from the man in front.
Wang Wu didn't care about this, they could just follow if they wanted to. I originally planned to run back for a while, but now I can run for a while longer until this group of people arrives in Lindong County.
Fifty kilometers, less than an hour's journey.
Continue running, maintaining the speed at sixty-five kilometers. About ten minutes later, Wang Wu noticed that more and more things were wandering on both sides of the official road.
Wang Wu didn't pay attention, but he suddenly turned his horse's head and rushed towards the group of people behind him.
At this moment, behind Wang Wu, Lei Yuan, who was closely observing the people in front and the surrounding environment, looked at the man who suddenly rode towards him, and his heart suddenly trembled.
While the opponent was charging this way, he raised his right hand and waved it this way. After seeing the other party's gesture clearly, Lei Yuan immediately raised his hand and ordered:
"Stop! Stop everyone!!"
The cavalry stopped instantly, and the man came to the front of the cavalry at this moment. He turned over and dismounted, ignoring Lei Yuan who was about to say hello, but walked straight to the carriage in the cavalry team.
Then, he stood there, looking straight at the box in front of him.
Lei Yuan rode over at this moment and was about to speak again, but the next moment, the other party slammed his hand on the box.
'boom--! ’
The iron box exploded instantly, and a figure rushed out from it. The flying iron pieces were like bullets, instantly hitting several warriors who could not react and knocking them off their horses.
But fortunately, neither the people nor the horses were harmed because of the equipment.
"Haha, sure enough!"
At this time, a sneer sounded in the sky above everyone's heads.
Before anyone could raise their heads, an overwhelming pressure came over them in an instant, pressing down on everyone present and suffocating them.
The escaping figure also froze in an instant, fell from the air, and fell to the ground unable to move.
Five figures slowly fell from the sky. The most powerful monk came to Wang Wu, smiled and cupped his hands, "Your Excellency is indeed extraordinary. If that boy of mine could be half as capable as you, I would never dream of it." Have to wake up with a smile.”
"Haha." Wang Wu smiled and said, "The Immortal Chief is over-praised, over-praised. The Immortal Chief is so powerful, I believe that your son is naturally one of the best among men, and he will become a great person in the future."
"Hahaha." The monk who might have reached the realm of Pohuan was obviously very impressed by Wang Wu's compliment. He smiled and offered his hand to Wang Wuzi again: "I wonder if you have found anything wrong in this caravan?" Where? ”
As he spoke, he glanced at this group of people, and instantly, the blood in everyone's bodies stopped flowing.
They are only one step away from death.
"Those boxes are all full of people." Wang Wu pointed to a few boxes, "As for the others, you have to ask."
After saying that, he looked at Lei Yuan, a man he had met once before.
"Okay."
The monk nodded, and the dull look on Lei Yuan's face in front of Wang Wu suddenly disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, his eyes immediately turned to Wang Wu, and at the same time he fell off the horse, knelt down in front of Wang Wu and kowtowed crazily, as if pounding garlic:
"My lord! My lord! I really don't know anything about this, this, this, this! My lord!!!"
When begging, Lei Yuan's voice was filled with tears, and tears were streaming down his face. He kowtowed to Wang Wu vigorously, hitting his head on the hard stone pavement, causing it to bleed.
Wang Wu didn't speak, just looked at him quietly for a while, and then said:
"I don't see that you are lying, but this kind of thing cannot be solved by just begging me for mercy."
After saying that, Wang Wu looked at the monk in the late stage of breaking the delusion and tilted his head, "Except for the person hidden in the box, as for the scene..."
He glanced around and said, "I don't see anything wrong. This Lei... Lei Yuan, right?" Wang Wu looked at the man on the ground again.
The latter banged his head louder, and the skin on his forehead had been smoothed away, and the white bones below could be seen.
If he wasn't a warrior, he would have passed out by now.
"Lei Yuan's words don't seem to be false." Wang Wu said, "My suggestion is to take them back and check everyone in their family and all the people who handled this batch of goods."
"Yes." The monk nodded.
"I still have something to do, so I'm leaving." Wang Wu said goodbye, and finally looked at Lei Yuan on the ground, said a few words, and turned around to leave.
"Whether your Lei family is innocent or not, you will know when the time comes to find out. If you kowtow here, even if you kowtow to death, what is the point of it?"
He mounted his horse again, turned around and continued forward, never looking back on the road.
"Sir, this cavalry team..."
After Wang Wu left, a monk came to the late-stage monk and asked.
"Take it back and check. According to what Wang Wu said, check every place." The man responded and was about to leave, but he glanced at Lei Yuan who was still kowtowing on the ground and ordered:
"Tell him to stop kowtowing."
"Yes."
