Volume 1 The Twelve Holy Cities Chapter 196 Do You Want to Be a Hero to Save Beauty?
Seeing Bai Zhenlong's confident appearance, Mu Xuelan also felt that the day had come, and responded briskly: "Okay"
But in the end, Mu Xuelan still asked: "However, our current food is still insufficient, and at most we will last until the beginning of next year, and we will run out of food again." ”
Bai Zhenlong didn't worry, but said easily:
"Of course I know this, but this Northern Plain is not the only grain capital in Shanggu City, in addition to the grain capital, there are also towns as large and small as Qianxun Town, which is enough for us to purchase enough grain."
Saying that, Bai Zhenlong continued:
"The surrounding mountains and rocks have been almost cleared, and we will leave for Shanggu, the grain capital, tomorrow, and let Ding Fangqiu's first team, Leng Meiyue's third team, go to find other grain capitals or food-rich towns like Qianxun Town."
"What about Wu Yuanming and Lelina?" Mu Xuelan asked.
"Tell them that they don't need to worry about the food anymore, feel at ease to inquire about the news of Jingtian City, and when we arrive, I need them to have the exact news of Jingtian City."
…………
"Inquire about the news of Quiet Sky City?" In an ordinary hotel in Shanggu, the grain capital, Xian Renxing couldn't help but ask when he heard the order of Xicheng conveyed by Lelina.
"Yes, the matter of purchasing grain said that when Principal Bai arrives, he will personally visit the city lord of Shanggu City." Lelina said.
Xian Renxing glanced at Zhu Yuan, and when he saw Zhu Yuan listening carefully, he asked again, "Principal Bai is dissatisfied with us?" ”
"I don't think so." Lelina carefully recalled that Mu Xuelan conveyed the order, and felt that it was indeed not.
"That's good," Xian Renxing patted his chest and continued with a sigh of relief: "Speaking of the news of the investigation of Jingtian City, I think there is a place where I can not wait to be fruitful. ”
"Oh, where?"
Lelina was interested, of course, not only Lelina, everyone else looked at Xian Renxing seriously. I saw Xian Renxing shaking his head and saying:
"The taverns in the slums, where dragons and snakes are mixed, there are all kinds of gossip, where we may get the news we want."
"Slums?" Lelina said.
"Just like the temporary rental area of our Xicheng at the beginning, Zhu Yuan should know where he lived."
Xian Renxing said, but Zhu Yuan shook his head and said:
"I don't know very well, I haven't lived for a long time, and I rarely intersect with other people except for purchasing."
"Ah......h
Xian Renxing opened his mouth wide, he couldn't believe that Zhu Yuan was still an otaku, but fortunately, someone helped him out, so he only heard Zhou Guangyuan nod:
"I know more about the temporary rental area, Deputy Xian is right, there are a mix of dragons and snakes, all kinds of gossip are constant, and we may indeed be able to get the news we want from there."
Even after hearing Zhou Guangyuan say this, Leilina still had some doubts that there could be any news in the kind of place where the low-level people gathered, but Lailina did not object, but said:
"In this case, Xian Renxing, you and Zhu Yuan are in a group, Zhou Guangyuan, you are in a group with Xu Fei, and you and Xu Fei are in a group to investigate the situation, and the others will follow me to other places where we are established to see if we can find useful information."
…………
The slums of the grain capital of Shanggu are even worse than the temporary tenements of Xicheng, and the superficial prosperity hides countless filth, and the streets of the slums are full of filth, beggars who are not clothed, cold corpses in dark corners, bloody violence, and even unbearable pictures between men and women. There is no shame, no sympathy, just indifference.
The more Zhu Yuan walked, the more chill on his face grew, and he couldn't help but want to make a move several times, but was stopped by Xian Renxing.
"It's useless, you can't change anything." Xian Renxing shook his head and stopped Zhu Yuan's move again.
Zhu Yuan stared at the scene in the corner with a cold face, and said in a deep voice: "We don't care? ”
"I can't help it, this is not our Xicheng." Xian Renxing persuaded.
Zhu Yuan's voice was still cold: "But we won't have these in Xicheng." ”
"Therefore, to look at the quality of a city, it is not to look at its superficial prosperity, but how much dirt it has behind it, and the dirtier it is, the more rotten the city has been. We'd better get out of here as soon as possible, the grain capital Shanggu is no longer the grain capital Shanggu it used to be. ”
Xian Renxing stopped Zhu Yuan tighter, but he couldn't help the other party to die.
After the leading gangster kicked the woman who fell to the ground hard, he staggered towards Zhu Yuan with a stick:
"Boy, do you want to be a hero to save the beauty? Don't look where this is? ”
As he spoke, the stick in his hand smashed his head and face at Zhu Yuan.
Xian Renxing sighed and withdrew the arm that was holding Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan didn't seem to see the stick that smashed into his head, and raised his leg and kicked at the other party. Then I heard an oops, and the gangster leader had risen and fallen heavily in front of the others.
There were six of the remaining thugs, punching and kicking the woman, and one of them even pulled out the guy under him and was about to pee on the woman.
At this time, seeing that his head suddenly fell in front of him, he immediately rushed towards Zhu Yuan with a whimper, but the result can be imagined, they are not martial artists, and in less than a second, they are like their heads, lying on the ground and wailing.
The woman lying on the ground holding her head, seeing someone helping, hurriedly endured the pain, stood up and thanked her repeatedly.
Xian Renxing saw that the woman was of medium stature, and although her clothes were not gorgeous, she was not like those women in the slum who were dressed in tatters, and thought that she was a woman who had strayed into the slum, so she kindly reminded:
"Let's go, the ghetto is not the place for you."
"Thank you." The woman bared her teeth in pain but thanked her before turning into the corner and disappearing into the alley.
"Hey...... You...... Never mind. Xian Renxing kindly reminded that when he saw that the woman didn't appreciate it, he had no choice but to give up.
"Let's go, there's a tavern not far ahead, let's go in and have a look."
The tavern Xian Renxing said was on the street more than ten meters away, and there were several drunks lying outside the tavern, most of whom were thrown out by the bartender.
The tavern, like the rest of the place, was in tatters, built haphazardly with wood and stone, and the shouting and scolding could be heard outside the tavern, and there were brief fights from time to time.
Entering the tavern, a smell mixed with alcohol, urine, and corruption penetrated into Zhu Yuan's nostrils, and the irritated Zhu Yuan couldn't help coughing a few times.
The tavern, which was noisy just now, suddenly quieted down, and all eyes suddenly focused on Zhu Yuan's face.
"Ha, where did the chicks come from, has your ass been cleaned?"
"I'm afraid it's not the eldest young master of any family who has gone the wrong way."
"How do you know he's not here to have fun, the girls on the bed in the back of the house are nice."
"Hahaha, eighth, with you, let the flower girl come out to say hello."
In the tavern, all kinds of unbearable voices sounded together in an instant.
