After leaving the town,

Yang Dong and his party continued to advance towards Jiaocheng.

It's just that they have left the old prince's sphere of influence and stepped into the territory of the White Lotus Sect.

Compared with the old prince's sphere of influence, the territory of the White Lotus Sect is obviously much more miserable.

Many villages are abandoned, and few decent towns are in sight.

Fortunately, Yang Dong and his party learned from the residents of another small town that twenty miles southwest of the city, there was a refuge established by the White Lotus Sect.

This is a place specially used to take in the homeless victims and provide food, and there is also a market next to it, so that the surrounding people can barter.

Yang Dong and they need supplies, so they can't get around here.

"Sixth, what do you think?"

Yang Dong turned sideways to ask Hong Laoliu's opinion, but who knew that in exchange for Hong Laoliu's big eyes.

Since this old thing, after seeing Yan Bingyue's generous moves, he ignored Yang Dongai.

It wasn't until Yang Dong agreed, and after starting with two cents each time he helped in the future, he barely paid attention to a few words occasionally.

"Boy, it's a little bit of a thing, you decide for yourself."

"Ask the old man about everything, you have such a little money, it is difficult for the old man to do it for you!"

"After all, the old man only took the money from your guards, and confiscated other ......"

"Okay, that's what you said!"

Yang Dong glared at Hong Laoliu fiercely, and immediately decided to take a detour to the shelter first.

There is no way, the town that was planned to be replenished before departure has already been destroyed in the war.

If they don't want to sleep on the streets, they have to take a detour.

Fortunately, Yang Dong had the token given by Yan Bingyue in his hand, so he didn't have to worry too much.

Looking at the sky, Yang Dong immediately decided to move forward at full speed.

In a short time, the sun had already set.

Fortunately, the group of them arrived at the location of the shelter before dark.

Tucked away in the middle of the mountains, there is a relatively flat path that is not wide, but it is getting late and there are no pedestrians on the road.

On both sides of the path, there are towering ancient trees more than ten meters high, lush and green, covering the sky and the sun. From time to time, birds flew by, making a few hisses.

The deeper you go, the quieter it becomes. There is only the song of unknown birds, which is contrasted with the chirping of insects in the forest.

From time to time, a few squirrels and rabbits will fly over the path, leaving a series of shallow footprints on the dirt road.

But for some reason, Yang Dong always felt that something was wrong.

On the carriage, Yao Jia was already curled up in Yang Dong's arms at this moment.

She hugged her knees and lay on her side on Yang Dong's knees.

There was a slight tremor in his voice.

"Yang Gong, will we make a mistake?"

"It's eerie and a little scary."

Yang Dong glanced at the road in front of him through the window, and then shook his head slightly.

"There should be no mistake, this trail is so smooth, someone should have deliberately repaired it. And on both sides of the road, there is still new soil, indicating that this trail has just been opened up. ”

As soon as these words came out, even Hong Lao Liu, who was driving the carriage in front, couldn't help but turn his head slightly.

"You kid, you seem to be stupid, but you have some eyesight."

"Yes, it's true that this road has only recently been opened."

When Yao Jia heard this, her pure and lovely face was instantly filled with worship.

She stared at Yang Dong, and her eyes lit up instantly.

"I knew that Yang Gong was witty and talented!"

"Yang Gong is the most powerful man in the world!"

As soon as these words came out, Hong Lao Liu immediately turned his head with disdain.

He had a dogtail in his mouth, and said disdainfully in his heart:

What is the most powerful man in the world, little girl, don't you know that he is a eunuch?

was complaining in his heart, and suddenly a vague smell of blood interrupted Hong Lao Liu's thoughts.

Strange, how can there be a smell of blood here?

His expression was slightly grim, and he immediately raised his hand to stop the carriage that was hurrying away.

"Wait, stop for now."

The troika stopped, Yang Dong patted Yao Jia's soft jade back, got up and stepped out of the carriage and asked:

"Senior Hong, what's wrong?"

Hong Laoliu frowned slightly, his eyes looked far away, but he was blocked by the forest that covered the sky.

"Do you smell blood?"

"The smell of blood?"

Yang Dong's face sank, and then a solemnity appeared on his face.

The White Lotus Sect's refuge, why does it smell of blood?

Could it be that there is also a battle here?

But soon, he dismissed this idea. Now in the central part of Luozhou, it is basically the Blue Lotus Sect and the White Lotus Sect that divide the world.

And the location of this refuge is located in the hinterland of the White Lotus Sect's territory. Even if the Qinglian Sect had the heart to attack, it could only have more than enough heart and not enough strength.

But if it wasn't for the Qinglian Sect, why would there be a smell of blood?

He pondered for a moment, then said to his men:

"You wait here, if the situation is not right, take Yao Jia and leave immediately."

"Senior Hong and I, go ahead to explore the way."

After Yang Dong finished speaking, he got up and walked forward. But just after walking out a few steps, he unexpectedly found that Hong Lao Liu didn't follow, so he asked puzzledly:

"Senior Hong, what are you thinking?"

On Hong Laoliu's cheeks, a rare look of thought appeared.

After a moment, he spoke earnestly:

"Boy, I find you to be really special."

"When there is nothing to do, one bite is a sixth; I was really in trouble, but I immediately changed my name to Senior Hong. ”

"How can you be so shameless?"

Ah, I was discovered......

Yang Dong's expression stiffened slightly, and then immediately showed a harmless smile from humans and animals.

"Why did Senior Hong say this, I, Yang Dong, have only respect for my seniors."

"The sixth child is also familiar with the title of a friend. If you don't like it, I can change it. ”

"Whatever you want."

Hong Laoliu's tone was flat, and he suddenly stretched out his palm with a cold face.

"It's a very troublesome matter today, and it will take at least 10 taels of silver."

"Three copper coins, what's the matter?"

"Deal!"

……

lockdown,

The old prince leaned on the soft collapse and looked at the secret report from the letter.

After a moment, a look of doubt appeared on his face.

"No, judging from Yang Dong's performance that day, this son is by no means an unknown person."

"In that case, why can't this king find out about his other information......

"I can't say that I can't find it at all, it's just that it's too common......"

The old prince closed his eyes slightly, and suddenly asked softly:

"Have you saved enough of this king's merit book?"

The next moment, a shadow flashed from the darkness.

"Tell the prince, there is still some credit missing, but it will soon accumulate enough."

"But...... Lin Luo seemed to have another move. There have been a few times when your subordinates have been obstructed by his obstruction when they carry out your orders. ”

"Is that so? This kid also has a bit of his father's old fox character. The king knows this, and you should pay more attention to him in the future. ”

"And ...... Since he, Lin Luo, dares to obstruct you, won't you talk to Hu Weijun? Don't forget, there is still a Lei Qiang in Luozhou. ”
