Chapter 298: Walking Together
"Don't do it yet!"
Liu Qinghe suddenly shouted, making the clansmen who had just become nervous stunned.
Although the Empire is explicitly stated in the law, all the rules and regulations of the Empire apply in the wilderness.
Violations of the laws of the Empire in all cities are not normally allowed in the wilderness.
However, due to the special nature of the wilderness, no matter what happens, it is too difficult to investigate and collect evidence.
Coupled with the lack of access to communication guides in the wilderness, this makes the wilderness a paradise for some daring people to commit crimes!
Robbery, assault, and even rape, abuse, and other heinous incidents occur in the wilderness.
Except for a very small number of people who escaped by chance, or left evidence, who were able to report to the imperial authorities afterwards and bring the perpetrators to justice, the vast majority of the perpetrators could get away with it.
This is the most blatant manifestation of the law of the jungle, a paradise where many murderers can do evil.
Therefore, many people are very cautious when hunting in the wilderness.
For the most part, humans are even more dangerous to them than fairies.
Therefore, it is understandable that the four unfamiliar figures that suddenly appeared made these people in the Liu family become so nervous all of a sudden.
However, when the figures of the four people became clear, and everyone saw the four strangers clearly, the tension that had just been brought up was relieved a little.
Because the four people in front of them look very young, very much like students who have not yet graduated from school.
Since you are a student, of course, you can't be very strong, and at the same time, your mind is basically not as complex as that of an adult.
At least according to common sense.
"Who are you?"
Liu Qinghe frowned and looked at the four people who had already walked in front of him.
Three men and one woman, the only girl who seemed to be in poor health, was supported by one of the boys.
"Don't worry, we're just a few students, but we have a companion who has been poisoned and is physically handicap, so we want to borrow a transport, do you have any extra horses? β
Ye Ning said with a smile.
The strength of these people in front of them is average, and in the display of the combat power detector, except for one person whose combat strength has reached more than 2,900 and can be regarded as a two-star apprentice spiritual cultivator, all the rest of them have not reached the standard of spiritual cultivation.
That's why Ye Ning decided to show up and borrow transportation from these people.
After all, even if these people had bad intentions, with the strength of him, Du Fei and Tang Shu, they would be enough to deal with it.
"You're going to that city? Maybe we're not on the way. β
Liu Qinghe didn't completely relax his vigilance because of the age of Ye Ning and the others, and asked with a frown.
"The closest city to here should be Shanglin City, right? Of course, if you don't get along with you, we can also buy a horse directly. β
Ye Ning replied very gently.
"It's such a coincidence, we are also back to Shanglin, since this is the case, let's go together, anyway, by the way. β
Without waiting for Liu Qinghe to speak, Liu Feifei couldn't wait to say.
"Fei Fei!"
Liu Qinghe reprimanded Liu Feifei.
Then under Liu Feifei's aggrieved pout, she looked at Ye Ning and said, "Since you are also going to Shanglin, let's go together, you don't need rent or anything, and if you go out, everyone will have an inconvenient time." But the ugly thing is that you must not move around freely, and on the way back, you must always be under our supervision, and it is best not to do anything that could easily cause us to misunderstand. β
"Of course, this uncle, please rest assured, we know the rules. β
Ye Ning smiled and nodded in agreement.
Liu Qinghe didn't say much, just waved his hand and signaled a clansman to let a horse out, watched Ye Ning help Lin Chuxia onto the horse, and put Ye Ning and the four of them in the middle of the team, Liu Qinghe personally walked beside Ye Ning as a guard, and then ordered the team to return.
The Gaoyang horse, a specialty of the empire, is only a second-level immortal in terms of rank.
docile, domesticated, herbivorous, excellent stamina, average speed, and at the same time able to carry considerable weight of prey, ideal for use as an auxiliary vehicle in the wilderness,
Although the wilderness areas adjacent to the city can generally be reached by shuttle, most of the wilderness areas do not meet the requirements of the shuttle for the terrain environment.
Therefore, once you need to leave the city for a long distance, then Gaoyang horse is often the first choice for most people.
Of course, the really powerful nobles will also have better choices, but for the poor or ordinary people, the low-cost Gaoyang horse is the most cost-effective.
Liu Feifei's personality is very lively, and as the team embarked on the way back, they came to Lin Chuxia's side, chatting with Lin Chuxia in a chattering voice, as if they wanted to inquire about the origin of Ye Ning and the four of them.
It's just that the way of inquiring is a little simple and straightforward, so that it didn't succeed, but was asked by Lin Chuxia seemingly casually, and a lot of news related to the Liu family was revealed.
Liu Qinghe, who was on the side, wanted to take this opportunity to exercise Liu Feifei at first, but after a while, he really couldn't listen to it.
couldn't help but roll her eyes, dragged Liu Feifei away from Lin Chuxia's side, and was embarrassed to teach Liu Feifei in front of Ye Ning and the four of them, just dragged Liu Feifei to the front of the team, and then reprimanded a few words in a low voice.
Ye Ning didn't hear Liu Qinghe's reprimand for Liu Feifei, but looking at Liu Feifei's appearance, he was obviously not very convinced.
After a while, Liu Qinghe came back with Liu Feifei, who was still full of grievances.
smiled and said: "Let a few people laugh, Fei Fei has just finished her second year of high school, and she will be in her third year of high school after school starts in a few days, she has no social experience, and she is a little naΓ―ve in doing things and talking." β
"Uncle is serious, Miss Feifei is innocent, and she is really likable. β
Ye Ning said with a smile.
"Don't you hear me! I'm liked!"
Liu Feifei took the opportunity to answer.
"Nonsense! If I want to ask someone about something, I like you to be heartless!"
Liu Qinghe's eyes widened, and he reprimanded again.
Friendly laughter suddenly sounded around them, and the other clansmen of the Liu family obviously liked Liu Feifei's character very much.
Along the way, Ye Ning and the four of them didn't hide their origins too much.
The four of them had just graduated from high school and planned to sharpen themselves in the wilderness before the start of school, and they all talked to Liu Qinghe.
It's just that when it comes to Ye Ning's identity as the top student in the college entrance examination, and the results of the college entrance examination for the four of them, they have covered it up.
It's not because of anything else, it's just that I don't want to cause trouble.
The distance of more than 600 miles takes more than a day when there are Gaoyang horses to ride.
Therefore, the Liu family and his party also carried simple camping tools with them.
At night, more than a dozen simple tents were quickly set up, and Liu Qinghe specially left one for Lin Chuxia, so that Lin Chuxia, who looked very weak, could get a better rest.
As for Ye Ning and the others, they took the initiative to take on the work of vigil.
After all, you can't always take advantage of it along the way.
