Chapter 159: A Chance Encounter with a Fellow Townsman
One of the soldiers rolled over and dismounted, came to Scarface's side, motioned for him to mount his warhorse, and whispered in his ear, "General, I have indeed heard about this in the past two days. There are also two disciples in Dalan City who are cultivating in Lushen, and they have indeed returned to Dalan through the military teleportation array in the past two days, and I have also heard some things about Lushen Island through them. ”
Hearing this, Scarface turned to Yu Feng and the others, "Did you also come back from Lushen Island, are you a native of Darlan, how did you come here?"
This time, Yu Feng told the truth, "General Hui, I am a native of Pingsang, a subordinate village of Dalan, and Lushen Island is now being rebuilt, so we have been approved to return to our hometown." By the way, General, the last time I left Pingsang was in the Sky from the sky, so now I don't know the way back, I wonder if the General knows where Pingsang Village is going?"
"Pingsang Village?" General Scarface thought for a moment, "I seem to have heard City Lord Tan mention it once when he was dealing with government affairs, but I didn't have any impression. I haven't been to Pingsang Village either, so I don't know about this road, but I heard that it's in the easternmost part, so you can look for it in the east. Since these two people have teleportation stones issued by the military and can use them, and they also know that the most inconspicuous small village in the Dahran region, it seems that they should not be Zhong Zhaoqi and their accomplices, Scarface relaxed his vigilance, and trusted the two of them a little more.
His reply was just the same as not saying anything, Yu Feng thought so in his heart, but he couldn't say that, he thanked Scarface, "Thank you General, since the general doesn't know the specific route, then we'll go and find it ourselves." ”
Scarface nodded, "Okay, then you guys be careful all the way, if you meet those two people just now, don't act rashly, you can go to Lancheng and report to me." The two of them are meticulous works sent by the demons, and their strength should not be underestimated, so you should be careful. So saying, he turned on his horse and shouted to the soldiers around him, "Brothers, they must not go far, let's go over there and look for it." ”
Under the leadership of General Scarface, everyone chased out in the direction where Zhong Zhaoqi and his son left just now.
Watching everyone leave, Yu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Bai Ya sighed on the side, "I really hope they can't catch up, if you force those two people to be in a hurry, they are not opponents." ”
"Now that we're all gone, let's hurry up, it's already so dark, let's find a place to rest quickly." Seeing that everyone left and the surroundings became deserted again, Yu Feng motioned for Bai Ya to leave here, "I said why do you always ask us about some things along the way, and I came to inquire about information for a long time, but fortunately I don't know anything, so naturally they can't ask." This is the first time I've seen a foreigner, and it looks like we're no different!"
"People in the world are the same. It's just that different races live in different places, and there are some changes due to environmental factors, and there are mostly differences in adaptability, physique, etc., but they can't be seen with the naked eye. Bai Ya began to explain to Yu Feng, "When I left Xilu City, it had already fallen, and there were demon army commanders at all entrances and exits and some important places in the city, and they looked no different from us, but their physique was much stronger than ours. This alone gave them a lot of advantages when the two armies clashed. ”
"Not good!" Yu Feng suddenly exclaimed, his face worried, "The demons have risen up and Xilu, but now they have spread to the vicinity of Dalan. If this situation continues, won't it soon spread to Pingsang Village? The village is full of unarmed people, defenseless, how can this be good?"
"Don't worry, the army of the demon clan hasn't arrived here yet, and it's still far from here, and the two people just now are just here to find out information. Didn't we hear on the way here a few days ago that the Green Spirit Legion had begun to march, and the Wind Spirit Legion was about to advance westward. When the main army comes to Xiling, the attack of the demon clan will inevitably be blocked, and it will not affect here. Bai Ya saw that Yu Feng was very worried, and immediately comforted her.
It didn't take long for the two of them to be in the town. This town is not big, there is no more decent hotel, I asked someone to inquire, only to know that there is only one private house in the town with relatively many houses, so I accepted visitors from all over the world and started to buy and sell inns. According to other people's instructions, the two found this so-called inn, which was really just a private house, a little bigger than the other houses......
The two knocked on the door, and a middle-aged woman came out of it, and took a look, "The two of you knocked on the door in the middle of the night, I don't know what happened?"
"The journey is tired, it is late, I want to spend the night in this town, I heard that this is the inn of the town, I came to stay. Bai Ya stepped forward to reply.
The woman smiled slightly, "I'm really sorry, it's true that this is an inn, but the two of you came a little late, we have limited space here, there are not many houses for us, and now it is full!"
Yu Feng stepped forward, "One ...... One room is fine, can it be convenient?" he glanced at Bai Ya as he spoke, and seemed a little embarrassed.
The woman shook her head, "No, it's already full of travelers by the end of the evening." Although it is a little remote, it is one of the towns that connects Dhahran City to the towns to the east, and there are many people passing by every day. Again...... We really don't have that many rooms here, so let's find another place. ”
The other party said it so clearly, the two of them couldn't say anything more, so they had to say goodbye and leave. Walking on the deserted street, Yu Feng looked around looking for a place to rest, and complained bitterly, "I didn't expect that the further east you go, the more difficult it will be." How can this place be so remote, there is not even a big inn and hostel, are we really going to sleep on the streets today?"
"You still say, it's me who should complain the most now. If I had known this, I might as well have stayed on Lushen Island by myself. Bai Ya said casually.
Hearing this, Yu Feng was stuffed and had nothing to say, he brought others out, mixed up to such a point, what kind of face did he have to say anything else, people just scolded him, and he had to suffer honestly.
After a few more walks, they suddenly heard a voice from under the corner of a nearby house. A teenager's voice came first, "Dad, we can only spend the night here tonight, it's too trendy here." ”
I don't know why, Yu Feng only felt that this voice seemed to be a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it for a while.
At this time, another voice came, "Huzi, you can just stay here, there is really no place to live tonight." Here, put this piece of leather under your body, so that it can be warmer. ”
Huzi, this name sounds more familiar. In Pingsang Village, there was such a person among his childhood playmates. Now that I think about it, although the voice just now is a little different from what I remembered, it is also a little similar, it is really him.
"Huzi, is it the little Huzi of Pingsang Village?" Yu Feng asked as he moved closer to the corner of the wall.
"Who, who's where, how do you know me?" the boy's voice came again.
"It's really you, great, I'm Yu Feng, I'm back. Yu Feng exclaimed, and it was not difficult to hear the joy in his heart from his tone.
"Yu Feng?" a figure flickered, and the young man named Huzi stood up from the corner of the wall and took two steps out. His face was soon seen by Yu Feng, who was his playmate in Pingsang Village.
Huzi saw him at the same time, and said in the same surprise, "It's really Yu Feng, why are you here." ”
At this time, another person sitting in the corner, Huzi's father also walked out, and he was also taken aback when he saw Yu Feng. "Yu Feng, weren't you picked up by that Fu Shaoxia, why are you here?" As he spoke, he looked behind and around Yu Feng again, he should have been looking for Xing Xuan's figure, but he only saw Bai Ya except for Yu Feng. "What about Xing Xuan, didn't the two of you go out together, why are you alone now? and who is this girl?"
Yu Feng hurriedly stepped forward, "This is a long story...... Yu Feng roughly told Huzi and his son why he came back, why Xing Xuan didn't come back, and Bai Ya was his friend, and then asked, "We've been walking for a day today, I don't know how to go back to Pingsang Village, since you came out of the village, you must know the way back, right?"
"Of course," Huzi's father thought for a moment, "Well, since you met here, why don't you let Huzi take you back to the village tomorrow." The road is a little remote, and if it were to be given to you, you would not find it. ”
"Let Huzi take us away, won't you go back together?" Yu Feng continued to ask.
"We only came out of the village in the past two days, and we were supposed to go to Dharan City, but we haven't arrived yet, so of course we can't go back. ”
"It's so far from the village to Dalancheng, what are you going to do there?
"Of course I'm going to sell something. Huzi's father said as he pointed to the corner of the wall where the two of them were sitting, and there were two baskets, one large and one small, and the baskets were full of things. Yu Feng then thought that there were often people in the village who went out of the village to sell some prey or wood, and this tiger father often went out, and he took a general look, and there were some more precious wood and some animal skins in the mountains in the basket.
Huzi's father continued, "If it's just some ordinary wood, we can find the nearest town and sell it, so there's no need to go so far. But these are the better things that have been obtained by a few families in the village who have recently gone up the mountain, and they cannot be sold for a good price in the nearest towns, so they are gathered together to be sold in the city of Dharan. Speaking of which, there is also your father's prey here!" Hearing this last sentence, Yu Feng couldn't help but glance at the basket again, as if he wanted to see the fruits of his father's labor.
"I brought Huzi here this time, firstly, because there are a lot of these things, and I have some difficulty with them, so I asked him to help. Second, because I am not young, I will not be able to walk one day in the future, so I took Huzi out to see the world and recognize the way out of the village. ”
Yu Feng thought to himself that he should admit it, he didn't know it, so he could only look around here, "Then why did you spend the night here today, it's so ...... here" Before he finished speaking, he already knew the answer, where is there a place to live, otherwise he wouldn't have wandered around at night. But as it happens, if you weren't wandering around like this, you wouldn't have been able to touch the tigers!
Huzi's father smiled bitterly, "Alas, it's not easy to make money every time I go out, and I can't live in a hostel, but this time it's different, I took Huzi out and wanted to live in a hostel, but there was no place." So I can only ......"
