NO.0039 SECLUSION
When Yang Long stood in front of the dilapidated house at the edge of the village, the sun had completely sunk into the western horizon, most of the villagers had rested, and the whole village was silent without the slightest sound. In front of him is the home that has lived in this world for nearly a year, and behind him, the forest that has become like a man-eating monster due to the darkness of the night is about to become Yang Long's home.
It didn't take much effort for Yang Long to get everything he wanted to know, and at the same time, he knew Lin's final destination, which was beyond his expectations. Looking up at the sky, which was completely different from the earth in his previous life, and there were few stars, Yang Long couldn't help but sigh at Lin's luck.
To be able to marry the only son of a marquis, whether it is material conditions or spiritual life, must be the wife and concubine of a gentleman in this small town of Carlin. Although Yang Long didn't regard Lin as a relative, this ending still made him feel relieved, because he knew that the moment Beilu tried to kill him, Beilu's head was already in Yang Long's pocket.
Yang Long will never have the slightest mercy on those who dare to offend him, and the reason why he has accumulated a great reputation in his previous life is because of the people who have offended him, each of whom has suffered cruel and inhumane revenge. If Lin really married Beilu, then when Yang Long cut off Beilu's head, Lin would naturally not be spared, and if that happened, Yang Long would feel very regretful.
However, if you want to take revenge, you must first have the strength, and this small village obviously can't stay for a long time, when Beilu finds that the four of them haven't gone back, maybe there will be more troubles to find themselves, and under the premise that he doesn't have the strength to fight to the death with Beilu, Yang Long chose to leave this place and live in seclusion. And killing a few people to get weapons and equipment is enough for Yang Long to live alone in the forest.
The map found in the loot was the most valuable of them all, and this one, no more than the size of A4 paper, depicted a brief topography of the entire Viscount of Carlin-Rip. As you can see from the map, this territory is actually just over 1,200 square kilometers, which is almost similar to an irregular rectangular area 40 kilometers long and 30 kilometers wide.
In addition to the town of Carlin, which is about to become a city, there is also the town of "Bem", which is second only to the town of Carlin, and the town of "Jos", which has just developed from a village to a town, and these three towns form an irregular triangle, with the town of Carlin in the center of the entire territory and the other two towns at each end.
The location of the small village on the map is the southeast corner of the territory of Viscount Karin-Rip, this large forest has many cliffs, cliffs, caves and rivers, which is enough to support Yang Long to live safely here and quickly improve his strength in a short period of time.
It was almost impossible to find a deliberately hidden person from this dense forest, which would require the dispatch of thousands of heavily armed first-order warriors, and it was impossible for the entire territory of Viscount Carlin-Rip to gather so many subordinates at present. And by torturing Crane, Yang Long came to the conclusion that all this was the result of Beilu's private instructions, but for the sake of safety, he still had to hide it.
Early the next morning, Yang Long went out to find a suitable place to live, and with the help of the map, it didn't take long to find a relatively safe cliff, which was 34 meters deep and had a good view. The cliff is located at the top of a large hill and above it is a small lake formed by a natural fountain, and a mountain stream flows from the southeast of the lake to form a waterfall more than ten meters wide.
Over the years, several caves of various sizes have formed on the cliffs, some of which are unfathomably deep, and some of which are shallow for only a few meters. The cliff is extremely steep, and every time Yang Long climbs through here, it is thrilling, and naturally he will not be afraid that a wild beast will enter when he is unconscious and loses his resistance.
The slight shortcomings of this new residence are that the cave will become very dry after the lake freezes in winter, and the cave is very humid after the lake thaws in summer, although there is such a small flaw, but Yang Long is still very satisfied, and took a little time to choose a cave about ten meters deep and two meters high to become his new home.
After finding a settlement, it took Yang Long three or four days to remove all the daily necessities that could be used in the broken house, during which no one noticed his abnormal behavior, and Beilu did not send anyone else to kill Yang Long, and Yang Long successfully completed the troublesome move.
By the time the villagers stumbled upon it, Yang Long had already gone to the empty building, and no one knew where he had gone, and no one cared where he had gone. When Beilu, who didn't see Andy and the others reinstated, sent personnel to investigate again, the small dilapidated house left by Yang Long had already moved into new villagers, and Belu, who didn't know it, took it for granted that Yang Long was dead, although he didn't understand the reason for Andy and the others' disappearance, but it didn't take long for this matter to be left behind by him.
So, Yang Long survived in the forest so quietly, he had almost no danger in this forest with weapons, and when he was hungry, he went to hunt the silver wolf pheasant and spotted deer, and when he was thirsty, he drank mountain springs and streams. At the same time, with a safe place to live and abundant food to rely on, Yang Long's strange refining body was also implemented according to the plan.
That's it, Yang Long is constantly polishing himself under people's noses, without any entertainment and no partners, in addition to cultivation in life, cultivation is cultivation, and the soul from the other world is slowly accumulating energy in this ten-year-old body, waiting for the moment when the success breaks out.
On the other side, Steinbled, a highland city under the Alterac Mountains nearly 10,000 kilometers away.
There is no sign of the yet complete arrival of spring, and the snowflakes in the sky are completely unable to stop the fires raging in a city more than ten times the size of Carlin Town, and thousands of soldiers in standard armor are hurrying around, mixed with hundreds of ragged citizens trying their best to put out the fire.
Not far from the south gate of the city, a little blonde boy who was only five or six years old had eyes full of worship, and he looked intently at the tall and handsome young man in front of him who had been rescued from the catastrophe, and the cold made his immature voice a little hoarse: "Your Royal Highness, what about the villagers who were captured by the orcs? You will go and save them, right?"
Hearing the little boy's hopeful inquiry, Prince Arthas-Minethir, the only heir of the Lordaeron Kingdom and a paladin who had reached the middle rank of the ninth order at this moment, knelt down on one knee. After several days and nights of fighting, he did not close his eyes, and a sincere smile appeared on his somewhat haggard face, and he gently took off his expensive thick fur cloak and gently wrapped the little boy.
"Yes, little Timmy, I'm going to save them!" The bitter cold wind instantly blew the armor that had lost its cloak like ice, and even so, Arthas's face still carried endless tenderness, and gently touched Timmy's little head, and the young prince added loudly: "I will protect you!"
