Chapter 202

"Brother, you can't go any further!"

Near the ice field, two small figures were in a stalemate.

The older one is a boy, wearing clothes made of animal skins, carrying a bamboo basket, and the straw sandals on his feet have already had several big holes. If you get enough medicinal materials to treat Dad, you still have to pay the city lord's offering?"

"It's too dangerous there. It's an uncultivated habitat. Poisonous insects and beasts will kill you!"

A little girl held his arm tightly, and there were tears in her big watery eyes.

"You let go!"

The boy had made up his mind and pursed his lips.

"I won't let go!"

The little girl persisted, and the two entangled for a while. The boy finally got impatient and raised his hand. The girl staggered and fell to the ground.

"Of course I know the dangers deep in the ice valley, but if we can't pay the offering, how can our family have the nerve to stay in the village?!"

The young man said grimly: "And if we don't have the protection of the formation in the village, we will all die!"

"Woooo..."

The little girl naturally knew this too, and sat on the ground crying.

"Axian, don't worry, I still have some understanding of the wasteland of death, and I have also practiced martial arts, so I still have a certain degree of confidence!"

The young man said comfortingly, his face straightened, and he was about to embark on an unknown journey of life-threatening.

But at this moment, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

Because in the line of sight, a huge black shadow gradually walked out from the wasteland.

It was a huge white tiger like a hill, and the black markings on its body were like chains, carrying a mysterious flavor.

"Ho Ho!"

It took a tiger step and glanced at it casually. The young girl couldn't move at once, and she lost her mind due to the shock of the tiger.

'Too...too powerful...'

The boy's legs kept shaking, but there was a voice roaring in his heart: "It's just at the border, there are such fierce beasts that I can't resist. Is this the horror of the ice field? No wonder the village has never let us get dark Going out, handing over to the city lord every year for offerings, maintaining the formation..."

Tread! Tread!

As the giant tiger continued to approach, the cold sweat on the boy's forehead became more and more concentrated, his teeth were clenched, but he couldn't say a word.

cluck!

He could barely stand, but the little girl next to him, Axian, had her teeth trembling, and a smell of urine came from her crotch.

At this time, the white tiger who looked like a demon god lowered his head, revealing the figure behind him, and opened his mouth to say a strange word.

Although he didn't understand, after the other party spoke, the original dignified atmosphere suddenly disappeared.

It was as if the surroundings had turned from cold winter to spring in an instant, and the palpitating tiger prestige disappeared without a trace.

"grown ups!"

Anyone who can subdue such a ferocious beast must be a great warrior. The young man quickly saluted with a respectful demeanor.

"Huh? Who are you?"

Hearing the young man's previous words, Fang Yuan's eyelids twitched.

The language spoken by the other party is not the official language of the original mainland, but is very similar to the common language of Dagan!

As for why he talks so much?

In Yang Fan's dream before, he had already practiced this skill.

But it doesn't matter even if you don't have one. For a dream master, to quickly learn a foreign language is just a one-time dream.

"The villain is a villager from the nearby Panshi Village, Yu Jian, this is my sister, Axian!"

Yu Jian hastily saluted and stammered.

"Panshi Village?"

The adult on the back of the tiger became more and more confused: "Are there many people here? Where are they all?"

Yu Jian became nervous for a moment, and his speech suddenly became more stuttering.

After his stumbling explanation, Fang Yuan finally understood.

‘In this vicinity, there are actually human settlements, and they are divided into a large number of villages, and the core is Starfall City! '

'Besides, this style of speaking, as well as etiquette, all have the shadow of Dagan. Could it be the remnants of Dagan? '

Under the seat of the white tiger, the young Yu Jian was also secretly looking at the lord.

‘Dressing so luxuriously, it must be from the nobles in the city! '

From the perspective of a young boy, the only world he usually comes into contact with is his own village, and Xingluo City is the center of the entire world. It is impossible to imagine how vast the outside world is.

"Take me to your village!"

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment, and spoke directly.

Seeing the young man's hesitation, he couldn't help but said again: "You are carrying a bamboo basket medicine hoe, are you going to collect medicine? I hire you as my guide, and this is the reward!"

As he said that, with a wave of his hand, a different flower the size of a bowl with pure white petals and bright red stamens floated down.

"Snow lotus and red pistil?"

Yu Jian let out an exclamation, stepped forward hastily, picked it up carefully, and was almost speechless.

Although this is something Fang Yuan picked at random, to him, it is the hope of the whole family!

"Obey, my lord, I will take you there immediately!"

He wiped away his tears, put away the herbs, pulled up his younger sister Axian, and bowed down respectfully.

The little girl was still sluggish, but her brother didn't need to take risks, but he was sure. He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and with big black eyes, he looked at the giant tiger curiously.

"Thank you, let's go!"

Fang Yuan took out a piece of barbecue, stuffed it into the Frost Saber Toothed Tiger, and sent it away.

For him now, a spirit beast that has failed to break through the realm of Juyuan is indeed only used as a means of transportation.

Moreover, this beast is too ostentatious, now that it has come to a human settlement, it is better to let it go free.

"Woohoo!"

The Frost Saber-toothed Tiger swallowed the roast meat in one gulp, rubbed its head against Fang Yuan's palm reluctantly, finally, under his urging, roared, returned to the ice field, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"My lord, is this your spirit beast?"

Yu Jian looked at this scene with envy in his eyes.

"Spiritual beasts? It's barely counted, but I don't raise them, they just get what they need..."

Fang Yuan smiled and shook his head, looking at the skin boy.

Although this person is not well-informed, his martial arts has actually reached the internal breath level of the five levels, which is very good.

"Lead the way ahead!"

Thinking of this, he ordered unceremoniously, and seemed to be chatting casually, using the words of a teenager.

After all, the other party has no grievances or enmities with him. If he wants to search his memory directly for no reason, he really can't do it.

Moreover, with this young man's knowledge, he may not be able to know more.

Yu Jian led the way, and not long after, a simple village appeared in front of him.

It's really quite crude!

Fang Yuan was speechless for a moment. The so-called village was just a piece of flat land, with dozens of buildings clustered like round steamed buns. They were built extremely firmly, and half of the space went deep into the ground.

Such a structure can not only resist wind and cold, but is also very strong enough to resist general hazards.

Of course, in terms of aesthetics, you can't expect too much.

In fact, for most villagers, struggling on the line of life and death is the norm, and there is no mood to think about it.

But around the village, Fang Yuan's eyes flashed, and he found the difference again: "Spirit pattern? No... this is... a spirit formation! Although it is very crude, it is indeed a formation! Unexpectedly, there is a formation here. A formation master!"

"grown ups?"

Xu was paying attention for too long, and Yu Jian next to him suddenly asked anxiously: "But what's wrong with the village protection formation in this village?"

"Who arranged this formation?"

Fang Yuan asked directly.

"Of course it's the formation master of Starfall City!"

Although it felt a little strange, Yu Jian still answered without thinking: "Every year, our village will offer a large amount of food, elixir, and animal skins to Xingluo City in exchange for the formation master to come and maintain this rock formation. It is enough to resist fierce beasts, and it can also protect against severe cold. If the offerings are not paid in full, the whole village will fall into disaster..."

When he said this, he clenched his fists tightly, apparently making up his mind: "I must become a citizen of the city, and take my father and sister to the city to enjoy life!"

"Starfall City?"

Fang Yuan rubbed his chin: "I really want to see that place!"

At this time, they were also found in Panshi Village. After a commotion, a trembling old man came out holding a smoking pot.

"Yu Jian, don't go home, don't go hysterical, go to the ice field to die!"

The old man was kind-hearted. Seeing that Yu Jian and Axian were safe and sound, he was very relieved, and persuaded gently: "Isn't it just a poisonous injury? It can always be cured, and you don't have to worry about this year's offering. Let's get together. always!"

"village head……"

Yu Jian's eyes turned red immediately, and he quickly took out the snow lotus and red pistil flower: "This is what this lord gave me, this year my share is already enough..."

"Tsk tsk!"

The old village head looked at it, but he was shocked: "This year, I'm afraid you can only find it on the ice field? Just take a petal, and your father will be saved!"

He held the cigarette pot tightly, and hurriedly bowed to Fang Yuan: "Thank you for saving my life, my lord, Shishi. As the village head of this small village, my lord is from Xingluo City?"

"Starfall City? No..."

Fang Yuan shook his head.

He now also understands that this Xingluo City is the core of the entire region.

The surrounding Hengsha-like villages have to rely on it to barely survive. Of course, they are also exploited.

Due to the protection of the giant city, the security in the city is naturally the highest, and it is also the goal of all the people in the village to strive for in their lives.

Seeing the suspicious look in the old village head's eyes, Fang Yuan smiled inwardly, and casually made up a story of wandering on the ice field with his master since childhood, and wandering around indefinitely.

"My lord wants to go to Starfall City?"

After hearing Fang Yuan's request, Village Chief Shi relaxed his vigilance, and smiled happily: "It's nothing... It just so happens that tomorrow we will form a caravan in the village to head to Starfall City, and it's a good way to go!"

In fact, his wishful thinking was very shrewd.

Since Fang Yuan is unfathomable, and even he can't see the depth, the strength must be extremely strong.

My own village is just leading the way, but I can get shelter on the road, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone, benefit both public and private, and it is a matter of huge profits!
