Chapter 61
While the Desolate Wolf Legion was busy with these things, Lin Xuanzhong thought about the problem in front of him repeatedly, and after several changes in his mood, he finally decided to leave the ghost city first, and would not step into the ghost city half a step before his injuries healed.
Next, Lin Xuanzhong also didn't plan to go to Lin Wuwu and them, because it was also unlikely that he would find them. So, Lin Xuanzhong planned to walk along the east side to the Lincheng Wenfeng City in the Hidden City.
Wenfeng City is only two hundred miles away from the ghost city, if you are careful on the road, you should not encounter danger, Lin Xuanzhong plans to go to Wenfeng City while healing his injuries on the road, and when the injury is almost healed, he can almost rush to Wenfeng City.
When he arrived in Wenfeng City, Lin Xuanzhong could inquire about the news about the ghost city, and I believe that all the news about the ghost city would reach Wenfeng City at that time.
After having such a plan, Lin Xuanzhong could only rush to Wenfeng City as soon as possible, but the road to Wenfeng City was not as safe as he imagined. Because there is no safe place in Beiling, since he was a child, Lin Xuanzhong didn't know how many introductions about the situation in Beiling, Lin Xuanzhong knew that it was very likely to meet robbers on the road. Those people specialize in robbing passers-by, and if they don't have a lot of people passing together, they are likely to encounter danger.
In addition, now that he doesn't have a single jade on his body, even if he encounters a post station, he can't buy some food, and now that he thinks about it, Lin Xuanzhong regrets that he didn't bring more food from that camp on his back before. In fact, there is no post station between the two cities, so it doesn't matter if there is jade or not, it's just that Lin Xuanzhong doesn't know.
Now the food on my back can be eaten for two more days at most, and what will I do after two days? With a serious injury, Lin Xuanzhong felt that everything in front of him was a problem. If you don't solve these problems, you'll never get the answers you want.
It had been a long time since the afternoon, and Lin Xuanzhong's injuries showed no signs of deterioration, and of course there was no sign of improvement. While continuing to hurry, Lin Xuanzhong had to think about dealing with his injuries.
According to the book, if you can find a quiet place to stay for a while, heal your injuries with peace of mind and eat more, your injuries will naturally heal. But in this way, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't rush to leave, and he had to find a way to solve the food problem. At the end of the day, the main problem now is food, if there is enough food then everything will be simple, but at the moment the source of food can only come from the outside.
After thinking about it repeatedly, Lin Xuanzhong planned to find a way to solve the food problem first. Looking around, there is a forest ahead, and you may be able to find something to eat from the forest. In addition, it is not early today, so you should find a place to rest. So, coming back to his senses, Lin Xuanzhong quickened his pace and walked towards the forest in front of him.
At the same time, on Lin Wuwu's side, the spies sent out by the two gangs before had returned, and they did not find Lin Xuanzhong, but they brought an aura about the ghost city. To everyone's surprise, they didn't expect the Wild Wolf Mercenary Legion to hide near the Ghost City, and they knew the situation of the Ghost City very well, and they actually attacked the city directly after the battle last night.
There is only one mercenary legion that dares to attack the city in the North Ridge, and it must be the Desolate Wolf Legion, and it would not be surprising if the Desolate Wolf Legion launched an attack when the situation in the ghost city was clear. It is rumored that the number of the Desolate Wolf Legion was as high as 100,000 at its peak, of course, this is likely to be a deliberate rumor from the Desolate Wolf Legion to create a momentum for itself, but in fact, the overall strength of the Desolate Wolf Legion is indeed undoubted.
In addition, according to the report of the spies, the Desolate Wolf Legion dispatched thousands of people this time, and there were two commanders personally led. Thinking that after last night's battle, the overall strength of the three major families in the Hidden City was greatly weakened, and the Desolate Wolf Legion must have taken the Youcheng very smoothly, although Lin Canghai was extremely resentful of the three major families earlier, but now he is even more sad about the Desolate Wolf Siege. I'm afraid that after today, the ghost city of the past will be completely gone.
Thinking about the foundation laid by the Lin family, Lin Canghai hated the behavior of the Wild Wolf Legion. However, no matter which side is attacking the ghost city now, the Lin family does not have the strength to save the ghost city from danger, and Lin Canghai and some high-level officials of the Lin family can only consider the news reported by the spies with mixed emotions.
On the other hand, for Lin Wuwu, judging from the news reported by the spies, Lin Wuwu had already guessed Qinglan's whereabouts, the people of the Desolate Wolf Legion were bound to hide outside Dongming Mountain earlier, and some of them must have taken Qinglan away last night, maybe their brother was also taken away by them, so the information brought back by several subordinates was very valuable, and Lin Wuwu planned to go back to ask for someone from the Desolate Wolf Legion as soon as possible once he arranged a place for the rest of the Lin family.
Now at least take the people of the Lin family to a safer area first, and before asking for someone from the Desolate Wolf Legion, Lin Wuwu felt that he had to be prepared, and even had to return to Youzhou City alone to get something that could prove his identity.
Although the strength of the Desolate Wolf Legion is not bad, it is not worth mentioning at all compared to the army of the Dayou Principality, so in Lin Wuwu's opinion, even if the Dayou Principality is far away from them, they must sell themselves a favor, at most they need to exchange some valuable things for themselves. After planning like this, Lin Wuwu directly approached Lin Canghai to discuss the matter of asking for someone from the Desolate Wolf Legion.
Lin Canghai naturally didn't have any objections, and next, as long as the people of the Lin family arrived in a city, Lin Wuwu could go and prepare for the important things. Since Lin Wuwu naturally went back as soon as possible, now both groups of people had accelerated their march so that they could reach the nearest city as soon as possible.
After Lin Wuwu and Lin Canghai discussed, an hour had passed, and Lin Xuanzhong had already walked from the plain into a forest.
The trees in the forest are not as dense as they seem, but they are just growing luxuriantly. There are many kinds of trees in it, and it is autumn now, so not long after entering the forest, Lin Xuanzhong found many fruit trees with fruits. The bright and attractive fruits directly aroused Lin Xuanzhong's appetite, but unfortunately Lin Xuanzhong didn't know whether those fruits could be eaten or not, so he could only sit under the fruit tree after thinking about it.
Fetch some food from the camp, Lin Xuanzhong chewed dry without water. After Lin Xuanzhong had eaten enough, it was already getting dark, and he couldn't continue to hurry, so Lin Xuanzhong simply rested against the fruit tree.
Along the way, he was physically and mentally exhausted, and when he closed his eyes, Lin Xuanzhong fell into a deep sleep.
It wasn't until the next morning that the gentle and crisp sound kept coming into his ears, Lin Xuanzhong was awakened by the sound of birds, opened his eyes heavily, and then with great effort, Lin Xuanzhong saw that there were several birds pecking at the fruit in the book above.
The idle and cheerful appearance of those birds made Lin Xuanzhong suddenly think that since the birds could eat those fruits, then the fruits on the trees must not be poisonous, and a feeling of hunger and thirst came, Lin Xuanzhong struggled to get up and wanted to pick some fruits to eat.
It was only when he really wanted to stand up that Lin Xuanzhong realized that he was not thirsty and hungry. Now it can be said that I am weak, my limbs are sore, and I have no strength to get up at all. Unexpectedly, after a night, the injuries on his body had deteriorated to such an extent, and under the fright, Lin Xuanzhong hurriedly set up his sitting posture and immediately activated the true qi in his body, wanting to investigate the situation inside his body.
I don't know what the reason is, the meridians that had been dredged yesterday have become blocked again today, and the true qi cannot flow in them at all. Shocked, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't help but lift the clothes near several wounds, and then was surprised to find that the wounds were not scarred, but worsened. Thinking that the injuries at the few wounds had already affected the normal muscles and veins in the flesh and blood, Lin Xuanzhong suddenly thought that he must apply the medicine quickly, and then use the True Qi to heal the wounds as soon as possible.
There was still some ointment left from Lin Wuwu's gift that night, and after taking it out of his sleeve, Lin Xuanzhong wanted to apply it to the wound as soon as possible. However, the wound is too dirty, and it may not be useful to apply it directly, so Lin Xuanzhong feels that he still needs to find some water to wash the wound before applying the medicine. So, next, Lin Xuanzhong planned to find a place with water. Ignoring those problematic veins, after barely running the True Qi for a few weeks, Lin Xuanzhong had already gotten up.
Laboriously picked a few fruits and brought them to his body, and then Lin Xuanzhong walked forward step by step. The forest was very lively, and it didn't take long for Lin Xuanzhong to see some animals running, fortunately there were no large beasts, otherwise he would have died in the mouth of the beasts in his current situation, thinking so in his heart, Lin Xuanzhong carefully observed the surrounding environment.
Half an hour later, a river appeared in front of me, the clear water sparkling in the eyes, and there were some small animals drinking water on the riverbank. After finding a relatively remote location, Lin Xuanzhong scrubbed the piece of cloth wrapped in the long sword in the water, and then took off his upper clothes, and he could see several wound marks hideous, and Lin Xuanzhong didn't dare to look carefully. It seems that because of the continuous walking just now, the wound is still obviously becoming painful, of course, Lin Xuanzhong is only concerned about whether the injury has deteriorated.
Hurriedly wiped a few wounds with a cloth, then opened the ointment and applied it to several wounds, and waited until all the wounds were smeared with ointment, and looked at the remaining ointment, Lin Xuanzhong helplessly found that the remaining ointment seemed to be able to be used only once. Thinking that when the wound was completely healed, he needed more ointment than he had left now, and Lin Xuanzhong reluctantly found that there was another big problem.
Originally, there were enough problems, but now there is another big problem, and Lin Xuanzhong really doesn't know what to do. While thinking about what to do with some headaches, Lin Xuanzhong walked to a stone on the shore and sat down.
As time passed, the temperature began to rise, and even though he was sitting by the river, Lin Xuanzhong could still feel a trace of heat.
Not long after, a wave of hunger rushed in, and Lin Xuanzhong took out the remaining dry food and ate it on the river water. Now that the body needs nutritious food, Lin Xuanzhong knows that relying on dry food alone only has a satiety effect on the body, and it is best to get some meat to eat.
