Chapter 656: Entering the City
Mofang accepted the job, and it was a big one. He temporarily served as a bodyguard and coachman of the escort agency. There was no other way. You couldn't expect a rich girl to drive a horse. It would be safer to let the horse walk by itself.
In order to get the villagers out of the entanglement of the evil alliance, Mofang deliberately threw the body beside the official road, and also released nanorobots to decompose all the auras and items related to the evil cultivation of the evil alliance. They had nothing to do with this matter and there was no need to risk their lives for it.
A carriage creaked on the ancient road in the deserted mountains. The horse snorted from time to time. The coarse cloth curtain on the carriage swayed back and forth with the shaking of the carriage. Mofang was helpless with this kind of carriage. There was no shock absorption and the wheels were made of wood. If a stone was pressed, it would make a creaking sound. Mofang was really afraid that the carriage would fall apart before reaching the city.
"Senior Fang..."
"Call me Brother Fang. I was actually born not long ago." Mofang used the word "born", but unfortunately the two brothers and sisters in the carriage did not notice the difference in the word.
"Okay... Brother Fang, we... are out of money." After saying that, Yan Lingwei lowered her head in embarrassment. Yan Lingxiao, who was lying on the quilt in the carriage, also blushed. The money bag he had been chasing and fleeing had long disappeared. He couldn't bring himself to rob it. After all, he usually claimed to be a righteous man. If he really robbed ordinary people, he would be laughed at.
"Money? Don't worry about that. I have plenty. You can pay with rare metals later. Remember to give me a good review."
Gold and silver are primary metals that Rubik's Cube can make as many as he likes. Just synthesize them. It would be great to make a mountain of gold and silver to play with when he is in a good mood. Rubik's Cube sometimes thinks that it can be a modern version of the high-tech God of Wealth.
They moved forward slowly along the way. Fortunately, Yan Lingxiao's injuries were healing faster and faster. If there was really no hope, the Cube would tear up the agreement and continue to go south. During the day, they had to let the horses graze, and at night, they had to sleep on the roadside and provide food. Camping was a good thing to do occasionally, but when you live in the wild every day, you will find that camping is so fucked up. You have to fight off some armed gangs composed of refugees on the road. When you encounter robbery, the Cube will let Yan Lingwei cast some small spells. Sure enough, these small spells are more effective than firing warning shots.
They staggered on the road. On the fourth day, Yan Lingxiao was finally able to stand up and move, and the Cube simply whipped the horse to speed up.
The world is in chaos, with war and banditry everywhere. Even walking on the road, you will encounter stinking corpses. When you get close, green bean flies will take off with a bang. There are so many rotten corpses that even vultures can't handle them. It makes sense to prefer being a dog in peacetime to being a man in troubled times. It is better to die than to live in this era. There is chaos and peace. For example, some big cities still maintain a state of wine and meat.
The high-ranking monks are still running around the world, not to save the world but to search for medicinal materials and cultivation resources. Meditation and cultivation? Stop it, how boring and tedious it is. It's so good to take medicine. You can become a master after taking a pill and adapting for a few days. It saves time. As for the life and death of ordinary people, what does it matter to the monks?
The magic cube driving the carriage was numb. Apart from moral crimes such as humiliating women, he was too lazy to take action. Not only were the adults crazy for food, but the magic cube saw several eleven or twelve-year-old children robbing and even hacking to death a refugee who had nothing...
"Is it like this everywhere in the world?" The magic cube pointed at the refugees outside the carriage and said, those people almost all looked at the horses.
"No, it's like this in several countries that have been hit hard. Part of Liang's territory is in chaos, and many people want to take advantage of the chaos to fight for a hegemony. There are good places, but it takes many days to meet them. Not far ahead should be Luming City. Let's go there to rest for a few days and change a few fast horses to hurry on." Yan Lingxiao gestured the territory of Liang.
"They are all so idle." The magic cube complained.
There are too many people like this. They clamor to conquer the world, but the problem is that in the end, many people have died, and the world is still the same world. The word conquer is meaningless and purely self-hypnosis.
The carriage accelerated. The magic cube didn't need to whip the horse. After seeing the refugees' green eyes, the horse knew that they had bad intentions. It sped up. If it was slower, it might be eaten. What's more, such a fat and strong horse might have its bones chopped into powder and made into soup.
"It's all the zombies. I heard that there are zombies outside the mountains in the southern part of the mainland. I don't know when they will come." Yan Lingwei said fearfully.
"Instead of fighting and killing each other here, it's useless to mobilize troops to deal with zombies. It's really talented that they would rather die than eliminate zombies. Did the ruling class of the mainland grow up eating shit?"
The two brothers and sisters of the Yan family quickly covered the magic cube's mouth and looked around. It looked like the eunuchs of the East Factory were monitoring them.
"Brother Fang, please don't say that! I heard someone mentioned this at a meeting of the immortal cultivation world, and the next day his soul flew away and his family died!"
Mo Fang's mouth twitched. These people are really idle...
…………
Late at night.
At two o'clock in the morning, Mo Fang drove the carriage and finally arrived at the Luming City. Many refugees were lying on the ground sleeping at the gate of the city. The gate was closed at night and opened in the morning. Mo Fang and his two brothers and sisters decided to sneak in. So, Mo Fang removed the harness on the horse's back and shocked the horse's butt. The horse ran away and could not be caught up. Mo Fang believed that this guy could run back to the village. It was really difficult for refugees who were too hungry to catch a horse that could eat grass everywhere.
Yan Lingxiao, whose injuries had mostly healed, and his sister used Qinggong to jump onto the city wall, while Mofang jumped up with all his strength.
There were definitely guards on the city wall, but there was an unwritten rule that those who climbed the city wall during non-wartime periods should be ignored. After all, those who could easily climb the city wall were either martial arts masters or some low-level immortal cultivators, none of whom ordinary soldiers could afford to offend. Only one soldier took a look and continued to sleep.
"Let's go." Mofang jumped off the city wall first, and the three of them slowly walked along the street to find a place to stay.
They didn't find a place to stay, but they encountered something that could help them...
In the dark night, apart from the barking of dogs, there was only the shouting of the night watchman. On the main road, five strong men in black clothes were running quickly with long quilts on their backs. They ran to the entrance of an alley that was bustling during the day and stopped and threw the quilt on the ground. When they opened the quilt, there was actually a long-haired girl wearing luxurious pajamas! The young lady from some wealthy family was motionless, obviously drugged. The five strong men drooled when they saw the young lady's appearance in the moonlight...
