Chapter 720: Wilderness
The young woman with a cold appearance, who didn't know for what purpose, would look at Jiang Xun from time to time.
And Jiang Xun looked at it for a while, and after thinking that he really couldn't remember, he didn't give up and continued to look for the other party's identity, but turned around and began to pay attention to the surrounding environment.
The closer you are to the city gates, the fewer shops there are.
It's like stepping from a bustling big city to the countryside in an instant.
And this span is getting bigger and bigger.
When he was about to arrive at the city gate, Jiang Xun even had a feeling of returning to ancient times.
Because there really stands a magnificent wall fifty or sixty meters high.
It's like the kind of wall in the ancient battlefield, and it's even more exaggerated than that, it's a modern version of the Great Wall.
"I originally thought it was an exaggeration on the Internet, but I didn't expect there to be such a thing."
Jiang Xun, who saw the city wall, couldn't help but sigh.
The function of this city wall is also very simple, it is a demon beast that is constantly cleaned in the low-grade wilderness.
With the strength of human beings, they should be able to understand the wilderness, but there is such a strange situation now, and most places are still within the range of demon beasts.
Although the human population is tens of billions, the area under their control is only 13 of the continent.
Many cities are isolated in the wilderness, and to reach other cities you need to traverse dangerous wilderness.
"I'm afraid there are some unknown secrets in this world."
This peculiar environment is clearly due to certain forces.
Otherwise, it would not have been possible to live together for so many years.
Humans will expand their territory, and monsters also need more living space.
Not to mention that there are other races that are also competing for living space.
It is obviously inconceivable that there should be a scene of peace and prosperity in such a situation that is on the verge of breaking out.
According to the logic of normal thinking, there is no way to understand.
However, this kind of matter involves hundreds of billions of people on several continents, and Jiang Xun's current strength is obviously meaningless to find these answers.
He shakes off this thought and observes his surroundings to see if he can find something in his favor.
When approaching the city gates, there are no regular shops, but there are quite a few stalls.
Some of these stalls sell food, some sell weapons, and some sell pills for bruises.
However, it is more about selling some items that are not too precious in the wilderness, but have some value.
For example, some low-priced herbs, special ingredients, and low-grade monster meat.
Although it is close to the city gate, the price of these things is not cheap.
These things are bought and sold by scavengers, and scavengers are all people who go into the wilderness to do their work.
They all made a fortune from these things, so they couldn't sell cheaply.
The main thing is that there are a lot of fakes in it.
One of them is close to the city gates, the regulations are not too strict, and the government is deliberately relaxed.
So it has caused a lot of fakes to circulate.
Some herbs look the same, but they may be a useless poisonous weed.
So if you want to pick up the leaks, you still need to have some professional knowledge.
When you go to the city gate, there are not only them, but there are also many people who are similar to playing or buying things.
Jiang Xun has the taste of rushing to the countryside market.
The situation here is indeed similar to that of a country market, with a lively crowd constantly shouting and dressing in different costumes.
There were even some people wearing armor who looked like ancient generals.
On the road, I also saw cross-knives and guns from time to time. Scavengers with baggage, like scavengers who want to venture into the wilderness or find something.
There are also some powerful cultivators, but they rarely look down at the vendors along the road, these things are too low-level for them.
Most of the people who buy things are fledgling children or ordinary people.
A true high-level cultivator would never buy this garbage at a roadside stall.
However, that Miss Ye Xuan is estimated to rarely come to this kind of place, and she is very interested in all kinds of strange things sold along the road.
So it wasn't a long way, and they claimed to have walked for more than half an hour.
Jiang Xun didn't care, but the woman who followed him was obviously a little bored.
"Xiao Xuan, we're short on time, let's hurry into the wilderness to find something."
Hearing the words of the cold woman, Ye Xuan reluctantly put down a doll made of clay in his hand and walked quickly to the city gate.
At the gates of the city there were a large number of guards, dressed in neat uniforms with swords and strong bows.
Although there are thermal weapons in this world, their power is limited, but these monster beast materials are made into strong bows, which are more powerful.
However, there are some powerful thermal weapons on the towers above the city gates.
It's just that these powerful thermal weapons are also huge, and they will only be used when large-scale monsters are attacking the city.
The guards from the gate must conduct strict screening of scavengers or adventurous cultivators who enter and exit.
Because some special monsters or monsters, if they sneak into the city, they may cause a large area of death.
The monsters in the wilderness are not all big guys with rough skin and thick flesh, and there are also some very evil existences.
However, these special monsters are very rare, but every time they appear, they will cause terrifying events.
If it can be detected and solved early, major losses can be avoided.
Jiang Xun entered the wilderness for the first time, but he had read some information on the Internet, so he had already prepared.
And Ye Xuan and the three people behind her who protected her were not ordinary, and they would not be stopped.
After a round of investigation, the five of them entered the wilderness smoothly, but when they went out, the guards reminded them.
"Try not to leave the range of ten miles, otherwise it is likely to be dangerous."
Such words can only be regarded as a kind reminder, and they will only say it when they see a weak adventurer.
The reason why he said such a thing was naturally because of Jiang Xun.
Because his strength is the weakest among the five, he can be called extremely weak.
In addition, he is relatively young, and the other party can be regarded as caring for weak children.
That Miss Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel a little disdain for her.
"If I didn't need your help to deal with the medicinal herbs, I really didn't want to take your oil bottle with me."
Ye Xuan obviously had a big opinion about Jiang Xun's constant peeking at the cold and glamorous beauties just now.
This kind of big pervert is obviously very unpleasing to girls.
Jiang Xun smiled indifferently, anyway, he didn't care what kind of senses the other party had for him.
Once you've completed this mission, all you have to do is pay your reward.
Ye Wanan told me when he set off that he only needed him to help complete the task smoothly. When he went back, the other party would give him a bottle of energy pill condensed by the flesh and blood of demon beasts.
