Chapter 39: Liuning Village (Ask for Recommendation Votes and Collections!)
Who would go to Jiangyang is thinking about the true meaning of martial arts?
On the surface, he was just an ordinary scholar.
Not to mention what Wen Haobo was going to do, Jiang Yang was trying to visit a nearby bookstore to see if he could find a more detailed map.
He hadn't forgotten that there was also a check-in point in the desert to the north.
After the palace check-in, I don't know if it will refresh the next sign-in point.
According to the rules of the first two times, it should be all signed in, but it is not easy to say.
That being the case, it's also necessary to do some preparation in advance.
He didn't know anything about the deserts of the north, and many dangerous things could have been avoided with sufficient information.
But after walking to several bookstores in a row, he didn't get anything.
"Coffin Book House, this name is really unlucky. ”
In front of a bookstore, the old wooden door creaked when the wind blew, and the crumbling door plaque was crawling with cobwebs, and business was naturally not very good.
He hadn't seen anyone go in yet.
"Anyone?"
Jiang Yang walked into the dark room.
The owner of this place not only closed the windows, but also covered them with curtains, and did not light candles, and the whole house was dark, except for a little light from the door.
With the help of the faint light, Jiang Yang took a look at the situation in the house.
Piles of books were discarded everywhere, and the shelves were disorganized, some with a few books on them, and some of them were empty, so that it was impossible to tell that this was a book house.
"Yes......"
After waiting for a while, an elongated voice came, hoarse like an old tape.
A stooped, gray-haired old man slowly walked out from behind a large pile of books.
The old man's forehead was covered with extremely deep wrinkles, his two eyes were deeply sunken in his sockets, and he walked tremblingly in front of Jiang Yang.
To tell the truth, Jiang Yang was really afraid that he would accidentally fall down and then he wouldn't be able to get up.
"Old man, are there any books or maps about the Northern Desert?"
He asked the same thing in the previous bookstores, but he didn't get the answer he wanted, which looked a bit old, maybe there would be a chance.
"Beimo, think about it, it seems that there is a travelogue, but I can't remember where to put it. The old man touched his head and slowly walked to a table, "The record says that I have recently sold it." ”
"Then who bought it, can you sue me?" Jiang Yang asked eagerly.
"Is this ......," the old man rubbed his hands, whose skin was as rough as tree bark.
Jiang Yang threw a string of copper coins on the table and continued: "Now you can always say it." ”
"Some time ago, a half-grown kid came to me and bought a few books, and he seemed to like them. The old man paused and thought for a moment, "It should be from Liuning Village on the other side of the Kun River." ”
"Liuning Village. Jiang Yang silently remembered the name.
When he went out, he found a few more bookstores, but still found nothing.
"Looks like we have to go to this Liuning Village. ”
Anyway, as long as he takes a look and believes that the money is appropriate, the other party will most likely not refuse.
He also learned about Liuning Village, which is a small village not far from the capital.
On the other side of the Kun River, there are more than a dozen small villages, each built at intervals.
Such villages are the result of special circumstances.
The size of the capital is limited, and the cost of wanting to live in the city is too high for everyone to afford, some people will be willing to stay in the slums, and many will be reluctant.
But those people didn't want to be too far away, so they lived on the other side of the Kun River, and after a long time, they became tribes one by one, usually doing some hard work to earn some hard money, hoping that the next generation could change their fate.
It's just that villages without strong people are not very safe after all.
The capital will not protect them either.
If there are ghosts, there is no pressure to destroy a village overnight.
Jiang Yang came to the ferry, spent money to buy a place, and got on a cruise ship.
Except for him, there are all young ladies on the boat who are here to enjoy the scenery.
They were chattering and noisy on the boat.
He took a ride anyway, and when he reached the other side he left, and stood alone in the bow of the boat, watching the river waves, ignoring them.
"Isn't it too much of a waste of time to isolate the bow of the boat alone, this brother, with such a beautiful day?" said a slightly beautiful long-legged woman on the deck as she walked towards him.
"I'm sorry, I don't like to be lively, so I won't disturb your Yaxing. Jiang Yang arched his hand.
This woman is the second daughter of the patriarch of a small business family in the city, named Luo Ying, since he got on the boat, she always used her spare eyes to sneak a glance at him, she thought that Jiang Yang didn't know, but she didn't know that Jiang Yang knew everything, just pretended not to know.
"Actually, I don't really like the hustle and bustle, and the scenery from the bow of the boat is pretty good. Luo Ying blushed with shame, and even her voice was much quieter.
For her, this is already a very bold act.
"No need, Miss Luo, please go back, Jiang likes to be alone. Jiang Yang's face was expressionless and very indifferent.
"That's me bothering you. Luo Ying's face turned pale, and she turned around, her steps were a little unsteady.
"I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing. Jiang Yang smiled bitterly.
He changed his appearance before getting on the boat, so that he didn't have to hide his martial arts, and it didn't seem strange that the cold temperament of the chivalrous man with a long sword at his waist attracted a few untrained little girls.
It's a pity that Jiang Yang is a ruthless man.
The boat is slowly driving on the water, sparkling and rippling, with the scenery along the way, it is also pleasant. "Almost. ”
Jiang Yang estimated the distance and nodded.
"Hey, what is that person going to do?" Even though Luo Ying returned to the crowd, she couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yang's side a few times.
She saw Jiang Yang take a few more steps forward, completely reaching the edge of the boat.
Rumble!
In an instant, the entire cruise ship shook violently, as if it had been hit by a heavy object of hundreds of catties.
Jiang Yang jumped and jumped directly from the boat to the shore.
"Thank you!" he said to the people on board, and disappeared into the dense woods.
"This man, so fierce......" Luo Ying's heart was shocked.
Not knowing that he had deepened the impression on the little girl again, Jiang Yang rushed through the woods towards Liuning Village.
"It's ...... Liuning Village?!"
When he finally arrived at the location of the village, he was shocked by what he saw.
The village was littered with corpses, and the dark brown ground had lost some blood.
Dozens of people in the whole village, for unknown reasons, were all killed by others!
There were basically only one or two wounds on their bodies, which proved that the perpetrators were very strong, and they had almost no power to resist.
