Chapter Ninety-Six: Searching

The team continued to advance towards Juzhang County, believing that after this incident, no bandits would dare to attack them easily.

The next two days passed in peace, and just when they finally entered the territory of Juzhang County, a system prompt sounded in Ye Feng's ears:

"Congratulations, the news of your victory over Yan Hu has spread widely in Huiji County, and you have been rewarded with +1 Force and +200 Reputation."

He was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that the battle in front of him would have such a big impact, it seemed that it had rubbed Yan Hu's light.

Moreover, you can also get rewards for defeating famous people, and you must not miss the opportunity in the future.

Of course, all this requires strength, otherwise someone will be killed in one hit, and he will become a clown who jumps off the beam.

This kind of unexpected joy was quickly left behind by Ye Feng, although it was a good way to improve his strength, but it was not the path that suited him for him.

Defeated by the public in public, the open-minded may laugh at it, and the small-minded will definitely become mortal enemies, which is not in line with the development plan.

However, if there is a chance in the future, I don't mind using the enemy to brush up on fame and attributes.

The next day, let the soldiers stay outside the city, Ye Feng and Tian Bo took the child into the county seat of Juzhang together, and it was most effective to inquire about the news or the county seat.

After entering the city, Tian Bo and Xiao Tong were separated from Ye Feng, they had to inquire about the disaster, although they saw a large number of refugees along the way, but they still needed to understand in detail.

It happened to be noon at this time, Ye Feng randomly chose a restaurant on the side of the road and walked straight in.

The restaurant has only two floors, and it is open in a civilian area, so most of the consumption here is civilians, and the private rooms on the second floor are at most the small rich.

The hall on the first floor is extremely deserted now, with only two tables of guests, and Xiao Er is napping against the counter.

As soon as Ye Feng entered, Xiao Er greeted him warmly, and quickly began to wipe the table and serve tea, this level of enthusiasm had never been encountered.

It seems that the business of this restaurant has been very bad recently, Ye Feng sat down and ordered a few signature dishes at random.

Xiao Er went to the back kitchen to finish the order, and waited enthusiastically to the side.

Ye Feng chatted with Xiao Er casually, knowing that now because of the sharp rise in food prices, there is no business in the restaurant.

And now he has to add money to eat, a bowl of rice costs 3 copper coins, which is the same as the price of a unit of meat, but he doesn't care about it.

However, now the price of grain has risen to 2 copper coins a unit, which is indeed an exaggeration, and the reason for this is not only the monopoly of the family, but also the people who have a little extra money are desperately hoarding food.

It's like in reality, due to a large number of people hoarding, even the price of salt has doubled, which is a short-term hunger phenomenon in the market.

However, the price of food in the game has become inevitable, and other prices will soon follow.

Later, Ye Feng inquired a little more about the news of Mengjia Village, but there was no harvest as expected.

It's just a shopkeeper, although you can hear all kinds of miscellaneous news every day, but there won't be any hidden news.

After eating, Ye Feng walked around the county, wanting to know the news of Mengjia Village needed to rely on luck, and he couldn't force it.

Juzhang County is a border county, and it is close to the area occupied by bandits, and there are many bandits in the territory, which is very active.

However, the bandits were also affected by natural disasters, and the amount of money dropped has shrunk significantly, but their exploits have not changed.

Many players who want to earn merit come here, and now the number of players in the city far exceeds that of the average county town.

Moreover, Ye Feng found that most of these players were scattered players, and their strength was good, and there might not be any guild that dared to risk the world's condemnation to occupy this place.

As there are more combat players, there will also be more professional players, so the city is very lively, and there are two streets for players to set up their stalls.

Looking at these busy players, Ye Feng suddenly felt a distance, and it was completely difficult to integrate into their lives.

In just over half a year, he has embarked on a different path, with a hermit mask, and the players around him regard him as an ordinary NPC, as long as he doesn't speak, basically no one can see it.

Suddenly, Ye Feng had an inspiration.

Since Mengjia Village is not hiding from the world, it must be transformed, and no one knows which village they are now.

But Meng Tian's bloodline should not be mediocre, not to mention that there may be Meng Tian's inheritance, and it is very normal to produce a few outstanding talents.

In addition, more than a thousand years have passed, and the Han Dynasty's encirclement and suppression of the remnants of the previous dynasty has also decreased a lot, so they dared to deliberately spread the news decades ago.

No matter how much they try to hide, they will leave a clue that can eliminate most of the villages.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng immediately started to act, asking some NPCs about the situation in some villages in Juzhang County.

Under the money opening, a lot of information was collected in a few hours, and after a little tidying up, he identified five goals.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, when it was time to make an appointment with Tian Bo, Ye Feng came to the city gate to wait.

Soon after, he saw Tian Bo coming over with a pensive face, and it seemed that he had learned a lot about the situation after the natural disaster.

Walking on the road with the soldiers, looking at the refugees who appeared in his field of vision, Ye Feng suddenly said to Tian Bo: "What do you think they need most now?"

"Food, of course." Tian Bo replied without thinking.

Ye Feng shook his head and said, "No, what they need most now is hope, hope to live."

"At most, only 10 percent will actually die of hunger. If the natural disaster will eventually end, it will not take more than half a month at most, and this kind of weather should end. He was sure that the system couldn't have let ordinary NPCs die too much.

"But now a lot of people have lost hope of living, and some people will break through the bottom line and cause a lot of additional deaths."

"But even those who survive the disaster will become very weak, they will easily get sick, and if they don't get timely treatment, more people will die." Ye Feng went around in a circle before he said what he wanted to say.

Tian Bo nodded thoughtfully.

Soon they reached their first target, Erwan Village, not far from the county seat, where the surname Li was all in the village, named after the two streams at the edge of the village.

This village has a history of nearly 100 years, and there have always been some talents, but they have not entered the officialdom, which is the biggest doubt.

All officials in the Han Dynasty needed to find out their identity background, so people with sensitive identities did not dare to be officials.

The situation in this village should be good, the people in the village have not moved away, the grass on the edge of the village has not been dug up, and it seems that the village has some surplus food and can barely survive.

This is why most of the people in ancient villages were from the same family, because they could support each other when they were in trouble.

There is no activity in the village, it is like a ghost village, it is supposed to save food.

When Ye Feng and his party arrived, only a middle-aged man with a pale face walked out, and he introduced himself as the head of this village.

There are nearly 500 people in Erwan Village, and Ye Feng checked every household under the banner of searching.

I found that most of them were ordinary people, and there were only three fighters, and the highest was the 3rd order, although it was not bad.

But he immediately ruled out this village, the strength of the Mengjia Village with Meng Tian's bloodline should not be so weak.

As for why no one in this village wants to be an official, maybe there is some enemy, this kind of thing is very common, and Ye Feng doesn't care.
