Chapter 4: A Bad Place
Three days later, most of his injuries had recovered, and although he could not fight again in a violent fight, he was able to walk.
On this day, the two men and the beast finally walked out of the valley and came to a small town.
Although he had only been in the mountains for a few days, when he saw the crowd at this moment, Lei Luo couldn't help but have a feeling that things were wrong, and a burst of unreal thoughts arose in an instant, as if he had stepped into the rolling red dust from outside the world.
"This is the most marginal place in Cloud City, after leaving this town, it will leave the jurisdiction of Cloud City, and the rest of the month will be almost a deserted place, so we must purchase all the things that are used here. Outside the town, Dao Yuan held a map in both hands and looked far ahead.
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up!"
Lei Luo couldn't wait to walk into the town, a pair of small eyes were spinning around, looking a little curious.
"Boss, the people here seem to be very poor! Why don't they even have a decent restaurant! There are even fewer people doing business!"
Dao Yuan looked at the many simple and decaying houses around him, and sighed: "No matter how prosperous a city is, it can't drive its fringe area, which is nearly a thousand miles away from Yunxiao City, located in a remote area, and sparsely populated, how can those businessmen come here to do business! But this is fine, although they live in poverty, but without those who compete for fame and fortune and intrigue and intrigues, presumably life is carefree, and people's hearts must be simple and kind." ”
Hearing this, Lei Luo nodded in agreement.
Finally found a restaurant, the two of them simply ate some things, supplemented some food and water and other applications, and then left the town and went straight to the west.
......
......
Bang!
A dull sound passed, and in the dust and smoke, Lei Luo's thin figure appeared, looking at the huge leopard corpse that had been killed on the ground, he put the soul breaking gun into the space ring, wiped the corners of his mouth, spit out a mouthful of spit mixed with blood, and said with palpitations: "This lightning snake leopard is really powerful! If it weren't for the fact that it was not yet an adult, even if I could defeat it, I would definitely not be able to kill it! And its attack is extremely fast, the move is deadly, there is no waste, it is indeed difficult to deal with!"
Dao Yuan smiled: "It's not like it's dead in your hands yet." ”
Lei Luo grinned, his voice a little hoarse: "If it's the boss, if you make a move, I'm afraid that I won't even break my clothes! And I, if I don't work hard, I won't be its opponent at all!"
Dao Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is already the fourth game of this month, compared to the first time of the blue-clawed wolf, your progress can be described as fast, it seems that these injuries have not been in vain." ”
Lei Luo immediately shook his head and said proudly: "This is true, if I fight the blue-clawed wolf again, even if it is full of energy and unharmed, I am sure that I can get it without being injured!"
In the past month, after several big battles, and more than a dozen ordinary battles, under the guidance of Dao Yuan and Sword Spirit, his strength has simply improved by leaps and bounds, and he has faintly touched the threshold of refining the virtual realm, as soon as this guy of beauty walks into the mountains and forests, he looks for the traces of the beast, although he is scarred every time, but for him it is painful and happy.
Just like he said, this feeling of obvious improvement is really refreshing! As long as it is beneficial to cultivation, what are you afraid of if you are injured!
"It's a pity that we've come to the end of this stretch of mountains, and then we're in a densely populated place. Dao Yuan smiled: "In other words, those fierce beasts that can be used as test opponents are no longer there. ”
"So fast!" Lei Luo was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses: "Yes, we have been walking for more than a month, and we are at least ten thousand miles away from Cloud City." At first, I was a little unaccustomed to it, but now that I've come to like the silence and tranquility of the mountains and forests!
Dao Yuan's gaze looked at a place in the distance, and said lightly: "I am different from you, I have lived in the mountains since I was a child, and I have a natural sense of closeness to this kind of place. And you, just stay in the hustle and bustle of the world for a long time, change the environment, it is like a change of mood, there is no complicated trivial things in the world, only with birds and animals, will make people forget a lot of troubles and unhappiness for a while. But if you keep living in the mountains, with your character, I'm afraid that it will be unbearable to endure the loneliness and boredom. ”
Lei Luo lowered his head and thought about it, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, you are right. If I were to be so bored and lonely all my life, I would definitely go crazy!"
He took a breath, lifted his spirits, and said, "Don't think about those things first, now that the food is present, I will wash and peel this beast first, and then, it depends on your craftsmanship, boss." ”
"Your ...... Wounds"
"It's a little meaning, it's out of the way!"
......
......
When the sun sank into the ground and the sky was only a fiery sunset, the two finally came to a small city.
According to the map, this pitiful place, which is not big or even small, is called Lockdown. Seal, of course, means blockade, but why it is called so is not explained on the map.
Lei Luo raised his eyebrows, squinted his eyes, looked at the dilapidated and mottled tall city wall that had been beaten by wind and rain for I don't know how many years, and said strangely: "This is where people live? How do I feel like a cage......! Looks like this is probably an ominous place......"
Dao Yuan was slightly stunned: "When will you look at Feng Shui?"
"Hehe, guess, guess......" Lei Luo scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
"However, what you said is not unreasonable, there is indeed something wrong with this place. Dao Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "After entering, everything is careful." ”
Lei Luo nodded slightly, and the two separated left and right, and walked side by side to the city gate.
After such a delay, the sky was completely dark, and the city gate was already brightly lit.
As soon as they entered, the two of them were blinded by a bright light. The light was not the light of the lamp, but the light reflected by the sword in the lamp, flashing on the waist or in the hands of their respective masters.
Lei Luo was taken aback by this sudden situation, and said in a low voice: "Are all the people here from the background of buying and selling weapons? How can they all be warriors with swords and swords!
Dao Yuan motioned to him: "You see the expressions of these people, almost all of them are cautious and defensive, most of them have their hands on their weapons all the time, as if a battle will break out at any time. You're right, this place does seem like an ominous place. ”
Lei Luo observed intently, and found that this was indeed the case, and he showed a puzzled look and was very curious.
"You two, stop me!"
Before he had gone far, he heard a muffled voice coming from behind.
As soon as this voice came out, everyone in the street quickened their pace, and soon disappeared, only a few people looked back at this side, but they also glanced at it in a hurry, and then disappeared into the night.
Dao Yuan and Lei Luo turned their heads, only to see a strong man with a full beard, as tall as an iron tower, dressed in a black power suit, walking towards them with an indifferent expression, his face has an extremely long scar, slanted from the bridge of his nose to his ears, under the shaking of the lights, it looks a little scary.
He was followed by two subordinates, the same dress, the same expression, all of them looking arrogant.
"Is there something wrong?" Dao Yuan asked lightly.
The strong man looked at them a few times, and said in a deep voice: "You two are the first time to come to me to seal the city, don't you know the rules here?"
"Please also ask for your advice. ”
"The rules here, everyone who enters the city must pay a fee, otherwise, the light ones will be expelled from the city, and the heavy ones will be killed!"
Lei Luo looked a little uncomfortable when he saw him for the first time, with a big black face, an expression of I am the boss, as if everyone owed him money, and now when he heard that this person was really here to ask for money, he was even more angry, sneered, and mocked: "This deal is cost-effective, empty gloves white wolf, open your mouth and ask for money, but if you want us, we will give it?"
