Chapter 679: Familiar but not familiar
“…”
Silence.
Still silent.
The businessmen and people who witnessed this scene all fell into silence.
Only Fang Yu turned around and left calmly, heading towards the tent, leaving behind a message.
"Pack up and get ready to go."
The casual attitude was as if he had just killed a wild dog on the roadside, as lightly as possible.
Dazed, confused, and frightened.
Looking at the Lin family’s daughter who had become a corpse, no one dared to say anything.
This secret is destined to rot in everyone's stomach.
Otherwise if the news gets out, no one will be able to live with it!
Different from powerful warriors, he has the ability to travel.
Most ordinary people just live in their hometown throughout their lives.
At the moment, the hometown of Thunder City is experiencing great changes and is forced to flee.
It was also because of the strong leadership that we had this opportunity to travel across the wilderness to other towns.
If they find a new place to live and settle down, they will basically never leave the town where they live again.
With such poor liquidity, if the news of killing the daughter of the Lin family spreads out today, and they are hunted down by the Lin family for thousands of miles, they will be dead!
Everyone knows that this news must not be spread out.
The daughter of the Lin family died in the wild, died from demons, died from being chased by killers, etc. It had nothing to do with them.
But if word spreads and he dies in their team, then everything will be over.
Everyone knows this, and I believe everyone hopes that this news will be buried in their hearts forever.
But...who can say for sure?
There are too many people.
There are too many people who witnessed this scene, saw this scene, and knew about it.
There were so many people at the scene, and if one person leaked the news, everyone would be implicated!
The faces of the businessmen were ugly, it could be said that they were extremely gloomy.
They followed Fang Yu to seek shelter.
As a result, he got into trouble instead.
It is absolutely impossible to fall out with Fang Yu now.
Without the protection of a strong person, it is unknown whether they can reach the next town safely.
However, after safely entering the town...
The merchants' minds were filled with thoughts and their brains were running rapidly.
They cannot do it themselves.
But when it comes to playing with their brains and leveraging their strength, they are quite good at it.
If things are unavoidable, then just pass the blame on others.
If an ordinary person were to do this kind of thing, they might do it in a hurry and not know how to start.
But these businessmen are very good at spreading rumors and spreading news.
After going through the thoughts in my mind, many businessmen present had their expressions relaxed.
Only the ignorant and powerless refugees are still chattering and arguing about this matter.
With such undisciplined and chaotic behavior, it is basically impossible to get them to shut their mouths firmly.
The leakage of the news is destined to be inevitable.
Businessmen think a lot and think far ahead.
But looking at Fang Yu, it was much simpler.
The business was settled, the casualties were briefly confirmed, and then the team started to set off.
"Daliang City? I heard that Daliang City is rich in a secret medicine called [Blood Cooling Pill]. This pill can unleash its potential, curb pain, and make the blood cold. When used in a desperate fight, it can make the person who takes the pill A person ignores pain and turns into a cold-blooded warrior. To me, the effect of this elixir is actually mediocre, but the special medicinal material used to refine this elixir is quite special. It is uniquely cultivated by the Lin family of Daliang City and is called Ku. The special medicine that makes people feel cold! This thing is quite effective in treating Song Xi."
In Ding Hui's eyes, the people in the team are just burdens and the most worthless things. It doesn't matter to her if he dies.
Her focus lies on other things.
Fang Yu frowned slightly.
“Do you want to go to Daliang City to buy Ku Xinliang?”
"What do you mean I want it?"
Ding Hui rolled his eyes and took out a radish leaf-like thing. Both the leaf body and the rhizome were all gray and white, as if they would break if touched.
“We have it ourselves!”
Fang Yu suddenly looked a little confused.
"Ah? We have Ku Xinliang? Didn't you say that this thing was exclusively cultivated by the Lin family in Daliang City..."
"Of course, this thing can only be cultivated by the Lin family in Daliang City. But I didn't say that this thing was only developed by the Lin family recently."
"What do you mean?"
< br>Ding Hui shook his hand and his heart felt as dry as a leaf.
"The Lin family produces quite a lot of this stuff every year. After the Lin family successfully cultivated it, they have never stopped selling it to the outside world. After so many years, not to mention the surrounding towns, even the capital, there is probably a lot of stock. . Otherwise, how do you think the Lin family has developed so quickly and become the overlord of Daliang City?"
In the beginning, it was indeed a rare place to live.
But if you can't hold back the sales, the price will drop, and the rarity will also be greatly reduced.
Anything, as long as it is not a wild non-renewable resource, can be considered to be able to slowly increase its output after cultivation.
The Lin family in Daliang City still hopes to rely on this only pillar industry to support their status as 'city lord'. Naturally, the more you sell, the more enthusiastic you become.
"That Blood Cooling Pill..."
Fang Yu immediately thought of something.
"Xue Liang Pill, those incompetent doctors of the Lin family can't make any success even with good things. They finally found an exclusive pill, just to recreate the grand occasion of Ku Xin Liang's past."
< br>"But it's a pity that the only people who buy the Blood Liang Pill are the local forces in Daliang City. Almost no one outside buys this thing."
Ding Hui spread her hands. She couldn't say anything else, but in In this regard, she still has information channels.
"Theoretically speaking, if my husband skips Daliang City and goes to a nearby town, I can still buy Kuxinliang medicinal materials, at most the price will be slightly higher."
Even if Fang Yu is not good at managing money, it is not difficult to make money by becoming the leader of a team, managing so many people, and deciding the life and death of so many people.
Moreover, Fang Yu just didn't care. Ding Hui directly asked people to send messages to those merchants when he wanted any medicinal materials or had any needs.
After a while, a businessman will obediently offer the medicinal materials in his inventory.
The same is true now.
If you are short of money to buy medicinal materials, just ask the merchants to pay some life money in advance.
As long as they don’t go too far, these businessmen can only be angry but dare not speak out.
"Then skip Daliang City?"
Fang Yu suggested.
Ding Hui smiled sweetly.
"Of course I don't care, but my husband must be prepared to suffer the torture of conscience. Most of the team members are close to running out of ammunition and food, and are mentally and physically exhausted to the extreme. If they don't find a place, It’s hard to say how many people will die if we replenish ourselves.”
“…”
The forced march greatly improved the forward efficiency of the team, but the price was naturally that everyone in the team was in very poor condition.
Otherwise, when attacked by men in black, the casualties might be reduced.
In addition to the most basic issue of food, most people also look bad.
Not everyone in the team is in the prime of life. There are a large proportion of old, weak, sick and disabled people. Long-term fatigue will sooner or later cause the outbreak of underlying diseases, and a number of people will die.
When Fang Yu thought of this, the advancing team suddenly stopped slowly. Fang Yu looked forward in confusion and saw that Song Zhenrong, who was at the front of the team and was responsible for opening the way, was already riding towards this side.
"My lord."
The body of the daughter of the Lin family had been left behind for a long distance by them.
Perhaps because they were worried about being implicated, everyone in the team speeded up their pace tacitly, and the marching speed, which was not slow in the first place, improved again.
But now, this action has been stopped by Song Zhenrong.
"What's going on?"
Fang Yu asked confused.
“There is someone blocking the road ahead.”
Song Zhenrong’s words were concise and to the point.
Fang Yu's heart skipped a beat.
The direction their team is heading towards is the official road.
They have always been on the official road.
If someone is blocking the road ahead, it is the official road.
“From the Lin family?” Fang Yu asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, Song Zhenrong shook his head.
"I don't know, I can't tell. I walked in front of the team and was responsible for opening and exploring the road. I was able to find out in time. I retreated in time and asked the team to stop immediately and come over to report to the adults. Even so, I can't say. Have our team been discovered by them?”
Song Zhenrong’s idea is right.
The team has too many people and is too bloated.
When you are on the road, there is a lot of movement.
Even if Song Zhenrong takes countermeasures in time, it may be too late.
Fang Yu frowned.
With his current strength, as long as he doesn't meet someone too outrageous, he can basically walk sideways.
But the problem is... after killing someone, the rising evil spirit will most likely kill him.
Even if it didn't kill him, others in the team would not escape death.
He alone cannot hold off the demons that gathered crazily because of the evil spirit.
"Detour."
Fang Yu made a decisive decision.
Tap tap tap tap tap!
As soon as Fang Yu finished speaking, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves approaching.
Quantity...a lot!
Song Zhenrong's reaction was a beat slower, or his sensing ability was not as strong as Fang Yu's. Only then did he realize something and suddenly looked towards the front of the team.
Like a nomadic group, like a large cavalry troop, a group of strong men on horseback rushed towards this side.
“What?!”
“People! So many people! What do they want to do!”
“Robbery??”
"Sir! Master Song! Help!!"
The crowd immediately fell into panic. The escort team, which had been training for some time, immediately cooperated and guarded the outside of the team, staring nervously at the menacing cavalry team.
Fang Yu is the strongest among the team, so he can see it most clearly.
These people, well-equipped and uniformly dressed, are surprisingly...
"Foolish Underworld?!"
Fang Yu looked stunned.
At this time, the cavalry of Yudi Mansion had spread out with Fang Yu's team as the center, forming a simple encirclement.
Tap!
The woman wearing a red cloak, with one arm holding the handle of a knife at her waist, scanned the group of strange visitors like an eagle.
"The Yudi Mansion in Daliang City is handling the case! In the name of the leader of the Yudi Mansion, I order you, everyone, to stop moving forward immediately and accept our interrogation! Otherwise, you will be punished as a demon!"
< br>
The one-armed woman glanced around with an indifferent expression.
Fang Yu thought for a while and pursed his lips to Song Zhenrong.
Song Zhenrong suddenly understood.
To be honest, he was surprised when he found out that the other party's identity was revealed.
A strange yet familiar feeling came to my heart, and I had mixed feelings for a while.
But when he came to his senses, he already knew what to do without Fang Yu's prompting.
"Lord Master! I am Song Zhenrong, the captain of Thunder City's Yudi Mansion, and I have met the Lord Hall Master!"
When I saw someone riding a horse from the opposite team, the one-armed woman was a little wary.
When the other party revealed his identity, the identity of the one-armed woman immediately relaxed.
Thunder City is a big city.
Much larger than Daliang City.
It can be said to be the largest town in this generation.
As for the Yudi Mansion in Thunder City, not to mention everyone, at least famous people will spread some rumors.
This Song Zhenrong was someone she had somewhat heard of.
"Song Zhenrong? But Captain Song, who has a great reputation in Thunder City?"
The one-armed woman asked hesitantly, alert and careful.
"Stop! Don't come any closer!"
She kept Song Zhenrong at a certain safe distance, keeping her hand tightly on the handle of the knife, and she might unsheath it at any time.
"If there is no second Song Zhenrong in Thunder City, then I should be the one you are talking about."
At this time, Song Zhenrong no longer cares about being modest.
The refugees in the team were surrounded by so many people, and he was also extremely stressed.
Although Yudifu and Yudifu are both in the same system, because there is little circulation between towns and cities, the relationship between them is more based on the annual needs internal processes to contact.
Like Thunder City, it basically only has a lot of contact with the Yudifu in the superior Guanghan City. As for the surrounding towns, most of the Yudifu from these towns come to Thunder City for study and exchange. Few people from Thunder City travel down to these towns.
Therefore, the Yudi Mansion personnel in Daliang City may know Song Zhenrong, but Song Zhenrong does not know these guys.
"My lord, please ask others to put away their weapons. We have no ill intentions and do not want to conflict with the Yudi Mansion in Daliang City."
The one-armed woman pondered for a moment, then waved her hand and asked her men to put away their weapons.
She looked at Song Zhenrong.
"Captain Song, if we meet by chance like this on weekdays, it would only be a matter of one sentence for you to pass through this place, but the situation is a little different now."
"First, Captain Song He did not appear here alone. Captain Song is moving with so many people. If I don't interrogate him, I won't be able to explain it to the superiors."
"Secondly, something happened to us recently."
"So in matters of emotion and reason, in matters of public and private matters, I am afraid that Captain Song needs to cooperate and explain some things."
Hearing this, Song Zhenrong had a vague feeling in his heart, and his eyes subconsciously He glanced at Fang Yu.
At this glance, it was natural that he could not escape the attention of the one-armed woman.
She frowned in confusion and looked in the direction where Song Zhenrong was looking. She saw a man and woman over there, riding horses and standing in the team. Their status seemed to be slightly different from the people around them.
Who are they?
Judging from their appearance, the two seem to be siblings.
Why does Captain Song Zhenrong care so much about the two of them?
