The market in Muqiao Town is bustling with activity, and people from nearby villages come here to trade. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The market is still relatively primitive, except for some large merchants with fixed stalls, many of them are small retail investors like Lao Li, who temporarily get some goods to sell here, which is somewhat similar to setting up stalls.

Lao Li's stall lizard bear skin can be used to make high-end leather clothing, lizard bear meat has a tonic effect, and lizard bear bone can be used as medicine, aphrodisiac and kidney, is the best tonic for men, so not long after setting up the stall, several people came to see his goods.

Lizard bears are not easy to hunt, old Li Qi is a good place to live, and the price is very high, so although there are many people watching, most of them shook their heads and left after hearing the price.

Lao Li didn't seem to be in a hurry, he negotiated with that person when someone came to see the goods, and chatted casually with Lu Yang when no one looked at the goods, Lu Yang pretended to be a foreigner far away from here, so he took this opportunity to learn from Lao Li about some customs and habits of Muqiao Town and Lihua Village.

There is not much difference between this world and the world where Lu Yang is located, if there is a difference, it is that the types of actions are not the same, and then the social development here is still very backward, about the system of Chinese feudal society, but the country is not so big, according to Lao Li's description, the Crescent Country where they are now is equivalent to the size of a Chinese province in that world.

When the two were chatting, two men walked to Lao Li's stall, saying that it was Longbao's people, and asked Lao Li for 'protection money', Lao Li took out the silver bag and gave them some silver money, and did not bargain, it seems that this rule has been set a long time ago.

An hour passed, Lao Li sold two pieces of bear meat and collected a lot of money, seeing his happy face, Lu Yang knew that he must be very satisfied with this deal.

Lao Li and Lu Yang continued to chat, perhaps too elated, and turned their backs to the entrance of the market. Lao Li didn't notice that dozens of people suddenly rushed into the market.

These people after entering the market. Immediately dispersed, groups of two or three came to the front of each merchant, claiming that this market now belonged to Jingwu, and that the protection money would be handed over to their Jingwu people in the future.

Among them, a small man came to Lao Li's stall, reached out and picked up Lao Li's half of a bear skin, and said that this was Lao Li's protection money for Jingwu.

Lu Yang recognized this little man, he had come to Lao Li's stall in another dress before, and he was very interested in this half of the bear skin at that time, and now he took the opportunity of Jingwu to come in to collect protection money. I want to rob this half of the bearskin.

"This market has always been Longbao's, we also paid the protection fee to Longbao just now, how can we pay another one?" Lao Li stretched out his hand and grabbed the half of the bear skin, this is the most valuable thing he harvested this time, how can it be paid as a protection fee like this?

Dozens of people from Jingwu rushed into the market, obviously robbing them, not only here in Lao Li, but also in other merchants. There were some verbal altercations. Obviously, the merchant paid the protection fee to Longbao, and was unwilling to pay a second protection fee.

The five people who were patrolling the market in Long Bao rushed over after hearing the dispute here, but they were not the opponents of dozens of Jingwu people at all, and as soon as the five people appeared, they were surrounded and beaten by Jingwu who had been prepared for a while, and they were all injured and fell to the ground after a while.

It seems that Jingwu is ready to rob the market in Muqiao Town.

After the person who saw Long Bao was knocked over. The little man who robbed Lao Li of half of the bear skin was even more arrogant, he kicked Lao Li in the stomach, Lao Li screamed and fell to the ground, the little man took half of the bear skin, and went to grab the bear bones of the stall in front of Lao Li.

"Put everything down!" Lu Yang stepped on the bear bone. looked coldly at the little man.

Speaking of which, he and Lao Li have only known each other for a day, and they can't talk about any friendship, but fortunately, he now lives in the old house of Lao Li's family, and Lao Li was beaten in front of him, so it seems a little unreasonable not to take care of it.

"You don't want to live, do you? dare to provoke our elite martial artists?" Although the little man was a little jealous of Lu Yang's big man, they acted in a group this time, so they did not show weakness in their words.

"Say it again, put things down!" Lu Yang's two bowl-sized fists were already clenched.

The little man obviously had no fear, and he didn't take Lu Yang's words seriously at all, but kicked Lu Yang's leg that stepped on the bear bone with his foot......

How could Lu Yang let him succeed? As soon as he let his feet go, an old fist was smashed out, slamming heavily on the face door of the little man, directly knocking the little man out, and after the little man landed on the ground, he was like a dead dog, and he didn't move, obviously under Lu Yang's heavy punch, he was not dead but also seriously injured.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Lao Li hurriedly put away the stall and pulled Lu Yang to escape from the market while the chaos was in place, but he didn't expect that the fight here had already attracted the attention of the others in Jingwu, and two strong men immediately moved over to this side, blocking the way for Lao Li and Lu Yang.

"Dare to hurt our elite martial artists, don't want to live! Put down the goods, kneel on the ground and tie your hands! Otherwise, you will die without a place to be buried!" One of the two strong men pointed at Lu Yang's nose and threatened Lu Yang.

Lu Yang didn't talk nonsense, his body suddenly became short, and a powerful punch went straight to the side of the strong man's rib socket chest, only to hear a 'click' sound of rib breaking, and the strong man who threatened Lu Yang was broken by broken ribs and punctured his heart, and died on the spot in an instant.

Another strong man realized that something was wrong, and pulled out a machete more than a foot long from behind him, and slashed at Lu Yang......

Lu Yang's body shape changed, and he easily dodged the knife in front of one side, and bullied the side of the strong man with the knife, taking advantage of the moment when the strong man slashed out, he stiffened instantly, and smashed a punch on the side of his neck, this punch hit the strong man's cervical vertebrae, directly knocked several of his cervical vertebrae into dislocation, and the nerve roots protected in the spine were broken, and the strong man fell to the ground without saying a word, even if he didn't die, he was already a high paraplegic in the second half of his life.

Lu Yang put away the machete in the hand of the strong man, and continued to rush towards the entrance of the market with Lao Li, and quickly killed Jingwu and these people, just to protect the safety of himself and Lao Li, Lu Yang did not have the intention of fighting, and there was no need to expose his strength too much in this place.

However, Lu Yang didn't know that the two strong men just now belonged to a relatively high status among the dozens of people who came to smash the field in Jingwu, and the two of them were killed by Lu Yang in an instant, causing the attention of other Jingwu people to focus on Lu Yang. They whistled and sent out secret messages. rushed up, and surrounded Lu Yang and Lao Li.

Lu Yang sighed, he originally wanted to be low-key, but in today's situation, it is obvious that he can't keep a low profile.

However, these people who came up from Jingwu were also jealous of Lu Yang after seeing Lu Yang kill the two strong men in an instant, and although they surrounded them, no one was stupid enough to rush forward first. This caused a sudden and brief stalemate between the two sides of the battle.

Lu Yang didn't hesitate too much, after pulling Lao Li, he roared and rushed directly in front of him, and the few people standing in front of him, hearing this roar, saw him alone but rushed over with a knife like a mountain, and couldn't help but feel a little cowardly in his heart, plus Lu Yang's skills had long been extremely agile. The knife is ruthless and accurate. In just a moment's effort, three more people lay down on the ground, and the Jingwu people who surrounded them were actually cut out of a gap by him.

"Let's all go together! Don't let them run away!" Some people in Jingwu couldn't help but feel a little timid when they saw Lu Yang so brave, and now they obviously wanted to use group dog tactics to keep Lu Yang and Lao Li behind.

At this moment, more than a dozen people rushed in from the gate of the market, and as soon as this group of people entered, they brandished the clubs and machetes in their hands and rushed towards the Jingwu people. Obviously, they were from Longbao, and they rushed over to support after hearing that something was going on in the market.

Originally, Long Bao's dozens of people couldn't deal with the dozens of people in Jingwu, but the current momentum of dozens of people in Jingwu was completely suppressed by Lu Yang's might, and when Long Bao's people rushed in violently, with the power of Lu Yang's previous killing of several people in a row, they unstoppably rushed into the crowd of people who had already frustrated Jingwu's sharp spirit. Immediately, the elite warriors fled in all directions.

After quelling Jingwu's rebellion in the market, a leading strong man who came over from Long Bao this time came to Lu Yang and Lao Li and saluted Lu Yang.

His name is Long Yan, and he is the sixth master of Long Bao, obviously he has heard from others about Lu Yang violently killing several masters of Jingwu with the power of one person, and came to express his gratitude to Lu Yang, and also has the intention of making friends and pulling him into the gang.

Lu Yang declined Long Yan's invitation, packed up his things and prepared to leave the market with Lao Li, Long Yan couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw that Lu Yang couldn't stay, he called Lu Yang and Lao Li, bought Lao Li's goods at a suitable price, and gave Lu Yang a token, saying that if he had the opportunity to go to Seven Dragon City in the future, he could enter their Longbao headquarters to find him at any time with this token.

Lu Yang accepted the token, hugged his fist with Long Yan and left with Lao Li.

It's not that Lu Yang doesn't want to join Long Bao, it's just that he hasn't had the opportunity to ask Lao Li carefully about these organizations similar to the underworld, and deciding which side to join at will will likely affect the results of this trick assessment, so it's not too late to delay it for the time being, and it's not too late to make a decision after understanding and inspecting.

……

After returning to Lihua Village, Lao Li's attitude towards Lu Yang was obviously very different from before, he asked Li Xiaohua to clean up the 'upper room' at home, invited Lu Yang into the upper room to live, and personally went to buy wine and food, and entertained Lu Yang.

After a few glasses of wine, Lao Li took the initiative to talk to Lu Yang about some things about Long Bao and Jingwu, and told Lu Yang that Long Bao used to be the largest guild in the vicinity, and the sphere of influence and the number of guilds were at least three or four times that of Jingwu.

Muqiao Town belongs to Longbao's sphere of influence, but half a month ago, Jingwu came to a mysterious woman, replacing the previous president of Jingwu, and became the new president of Jingwu.

The mysterious woman that Lao Li said made Lu Yang immediately think of the swerves who entered this world like him......

If it weren't for the Fallac, it would be impossible for a guild that was originally backward in strength to suddenly rise in just half a month, and challenge the guild that was originally the most powerful.

Today's matter, if it weren't for Lu Yang's presence and accidental action, it is estimated that the 'right to protect' the Muqiao Town Market would definitely fall into the hands of Jingwu.

Hearing Lao Li say this, analyzing the existence of another sorcerer and inadvertently forming a feud with her, Lu Yang's heart suddenly sank......

It seems that it is better to keep a low profile, but once you can't hold back and suddenly raise your profile, you will accidentally expose yourself to your opponent, which is not a good thing.

"It's not early, so let's get a good night's sleep after drinking. Xiaohua has already made up the room. "Eaten. Lao Li saw that Lu Yang was in a bad mood, so he persuaded him.

"It's not quite dark yet...... I want to walk around the village. Lu Yang was not sleepy at the moment, he had a bad premonition, if today's things were not done well, it would alarm the new female president of Jingwu, and she should be able to guess his identity easily, if it was not good, someone would come over to find trouble today.

This world still seems to be in the era of cold weapons, and for ordinary people in this world, Lu Yang has nothing to worry about, but if the new president of Jingwu is really a sorcerer. It's not that simple.

Therefore, Lu Yang must make some preparations, at least familiarize himself with the terrain near Lihua Village, so that once the other party kills and runs, it is better to react in time, even if he doesn't want to fight and chooses to escape, he must find a good escape route as soon as possible.

"You're not familiar with the terrain here. I'll let Xiaohua show you around. Lao Li mentioned it to Lu Yang.

"This ......"

Lu Yang was about to say something. Lao Li had already called Li Xiaohua over, told her to take Lu Yang around, and told her that Lu Yang was a distinguished guest at home, and she must treat him well.

Of course, Xiaohua listened to Lao Li's words very much, and would glance at Lu Yang from time to time, her expression was a little shy, but she still had a little excitement that she couldn't hide.

……

Ewha Village is not big, and the terrain nearby is not complicated. One side is against a hill, the other three are plains, and of course, there is a river passing by the village.

Now is the season of pear blossoms, of course, this pear blossom is not the pear blossom of Lu Yang's world, it is just a translation of the trick system according to Lu Yang's feelings.

The hill is full of these white pear blossoms. The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and with an eighteen-year-old girl by his side, Lu Yang is naturally in a good mood.

It's just that before the two of them climbed the hill, it was already dark...... Maybe he felt that Lu Yang didn't look like a bad person, and Lao Li had always praised him, so Li Xiaohua didn't feel scared when he stayed with Lu Yang after dark, but proposed to take Lu Yang to the top of the hill to see the stars.

After staying in this world for a few days, Lu Yang already knew that although there are often two suns during the day, there is no moon at night, so the sky is particularly dark, Lu Yang originally thought that it would be very dark on the hill, but what he didn't expect was that there were many fluorite rocks on the hill, and after absorbing the sunlight during the day, the night was bright, just like a street lamp, so that the hill was not as dark as imagined.

After going to the top of the hill, the two of them were naturally very bored looking at the stars, even if Lu Yang wanted to do something else now, when Li Xiaohua didn't show anything, it was too abrupt, so he could only continue to sit on the grass on the top of the mountain and say some nonsense while looking at the stars with Li Xiaohua.

"Let's climb to the top of the big tree...... Heard...... At the top of the tree, you can hear the stars talking......" Li Xiaohua proposed to Lu Yang.

She used to climb to the top of the tree during the day, but never at night, because she had heard a legend in the village that when she climbed to the top of the tree at night, she would hear the stars talking.

If you hear the stars talking, you can ask the stars about your fate...... It's about love, but only one chance.

Li Xiaohua was not mentally prepared for this before, so she never thought about climbing this big tree at night.

But today......

Of course, Lu Yang doesn't know this legend, and he doesn't believe that the stars can talk and other nonsense things, but the tree that Li Xiaohua said is the highest tree on the mountain at first glance, and the place where Lu Yang is standing now has a good view, and after climbing the tree, the field of vision is much broader, and it is a good place to observe the nearby terrain during the day.

In addition, there was an eighteen-year-old girl as a companion, so of course Lu Yang would not refuse, and followed Li Xiaohua and climbed up the big tree.

Li Xiaohua is above, Lu Yang is below, with the light of the fluorescent rocks on the mountain, as soon as Lu Yang looks up, he can clearly see Li Xiaohua's fart~ strands that are taut by cotton cloth, which is very elastic, making him, a guy who is easy to get into the brain, can't help but be a little confused.

Of course, just thinking about it, a kind person like Lu Yang would not casually reach out and touch it without permission, at most he would just look at it a few more times.

Li Xiaohua was born in Orion, and climbing trees is one of her most common entertainment, so she quickly climbed on a branch at the top of the tree and sat down, her skills were very athletic, but it was not difficult for Lu Yang to follow her, and after a short time, the two climbed to the top of the tree together.

This tree is very different from the trees Lu Yang saw in his world, there is a very thick branch growing at the top of the tree, like a platform, and the leaves grow under this canopy branch, so after the two of them sit on the 'platform' at the top of the tree, the view is very good, and they don't have to worry about being blocked by leaves or something.
