In the course of three days, Ling Ze and the seven of them had only walked a distance of about seventy kilometers, which was much worse than Ling Ze had expected at the beginning.

One of the biggest reasons is the geographical location, the area around the "Jiforora Tree Sea" is really inaccessible.

Ling Ze and the others walked nearly thirty kilometers on the first day, and only then did they really get away from the influence of the "Jifonora Tree Sea".

In the intervening thirty kilometers, they did not see any formed human towns, only a few small settlements and small villages.

Some of these scattered residents have lived in the outer radiation circle of this "Jifonora Tree Sea" for generations, and some have chosen to enter the influence area of the "Jifonora Tree Sea" to escape the distractions of the world.

If it is in the prosperous world, this is unimaginable, but in this troubled world, perhaps for them, some people in the outside world may be more terrifying than the dangerous species.

However, the good thing is that the outer forest circle of the "Jifonora Tree Sea" is not like the inner circle, in the huge outer forest circle, there are more wild beasts, but the dangerous species are not infrequent, otherwise those people will not be able to live for a long time.

Ling Ze and his group of seven people stopped and walked on the road, but they also encountered a few hungry beasts, and they reluctantly helped them replenish their stomachs.

In this outer forest circle, they are not bothered by the problem of food and water, and both herbivores and carnivores are on their diets.

As long as there are people living and settlements, there must be fresh water resources, and although they can't get transportation such as horse-drawn carriages from those hidden settlements, there is no problem if they just fetch some water.

On the first day, they were able to walk more than 30 kilometers and really leave the sphere of influence of the "Jiforora Tree Sea", thanks to the existence of those hidden settlements.

However, when it came to the next day, Ling Ze and Guy's bodies began to protest, after all, their physical fitness was there, and the journey of thirty kilometers a day was still a little too reluctant after all.

On the first day, they were all relying on tenacity, and although Ling Ze had done enough muscle relaxation work before going to bed, after waking up the next day, he still felt as heavy as his legs as if they had been filled with lead.

This kind of thing is actually very difficult to avoid, after all, they have not undergone systematic training, and there are no good accommodation and rest conditions.

After leaving the outer forest circle of the "Giforora Tree Sea", because they were penniless, their march not only did not become easy, but became more difficult.

After all, after breaking away from the "Jifonora Tree Sea", it means breaking away from primitiveness and barbarism and entering a civilized society.

It is basically impossible for them to simply get food, after all, the people of the north have never been rich, and no one will be kind enough to help their seven street children who don't know where they came from.

Fortunately, Ling Ze had expected this before leaving the "Jifonora Tree Sea", and he had saved them from starvation and thirst by hunting wild beasts and exchanging some easy-to-preserve food and plenty of water with the people of the hermit settlement in advance.

Because of physical exhaustion, they traveled less and less on the second and third days, and the two days together were not much different from the first day.

This situation lasted until the afternoon of the third day, when they finally entered Shanggu County and arrived at Fuyang City, the seat of Shanggu County.

This truly northern metropolis was the first city they encountered, and it came just in time.

If there is no such big city, Ling Ze will really have to take risks and do something less moral.

With big cities comes slums, which may sound like nonsense, but in today's empires, it's a normal thing.

And there are slums, which means that there must be those gangsters and scum who don't do anything here, and these people are Ling Ze's saviors.

For Ling Ze, who is crawling around in the slums of a big city, returning to the slums is basically like coming home, although they are not in the same city, but everyone's situation is similar.

"Sure enough, no matter where the slums are, they are all the same, there are always some scum who grovel in the face of the strong, but are vicious and cruel in the face of the weak."

In the slums of Fuyang City, Ling Ze held a money bag in his hand, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

With this money, they no longer have to travel on their own legs, but can sit comfortably in the carriage, and it is really possible for them to arrive in seven days.

"Do this... Is it really good? ”

Looking at the thugs in the alley, lying in the garbage heap with a short sword in their lap, Cornelia hesitated, she always felt that this was a bit excessive.

"What's so bad? This kind of scum, if he is still alive, even if his life is great, if he dies, then no one else can be blamed, he can only be blamed for himself. ”

Ling Ze was very unimpressed by this, he was even thinking about whether to catch a few more scumbags like this, this scumbag didn't have much money in his hands, and this money was not necessarily enough to support them to rent two carriages directly to Longxi County.

Ling Ze can be said to have no burden on robbing these gangsters and scum of money, and he is familiar with the road, when he was in Liaodong County, he was able to mix more nourishingly, all thanks to these gangsters who were not eyeing him for a long time.

Because in a one-on-one situation, Ling Ze has an absolute advantage, the illusion of the emperor's [Five-Vision Universal Observer] is not something that anyone can see through, Ling Ze uses the ability of illusion, but he doesn't clean up those little gangsters.

But unlike Ling Ze, the other children had never done this kind of thing, although they knew how to resist, but no one would rob those gangsters in turn, they often taught a lesson.

At first, Ling Ze asked Tsukushi to go out and hang out in the slums alone, which also made the children very confused, they didn't know what Ling Ze's intentions were.

And after discovering that someone was eyeing Tsukushi, they even became nervous, and only Ling Ze laughed directly.

When Ling Ze used illusion to control the thug who was following Tsukushi, and stabbed a dagger on the thug's leg, everyone gradually understood Ling Ze's thoughts.

First of all, Ling Ze asked Nahaxiu to go up and knock out the wailing little gangster, and if he directly used the emperor's tool [Romantic Fort Pumpkin], Ling Ze was afraid of attracting too many people's attention.

Looking at Ling Ze's blindfolded and one hand searching for the property of the little thug who was knocked out by Nahaxiu, the expressions of the children were complicated.

They all had the same thought in their minds, that is, "Why are you so skilled!?" ”

In fact, Ling Ze is not only very skilled in collecting money, he is also ruthless enough for these little gangsters, because he has seen too many cruel things in the slums, Ling Ze has no good impression of these scumbags at all.

This scum who was lying on the garbage heap, he followed Tsukushi definitely not to see Tsukushi pitiful, and wanted to help Tsukushi, which Ling Ze knew very well, because he saw through this scumbag's thoughts at a glance.

A girl like Tsukushi, whether sold to a brothel or to a nobleman, will bring a lot of "intermediary fees" to this scumbag, this guy is estimated to have done this kind of human trafficking, and in Ling Ze's eyes, human traffickers are all goods who die a hundred times and don't get rid of their hatred.
