survival in the wilderness

Lin Yan inquired about the prices in Fengcheng and also knew about the price of salt.In fact, salt is a necessity everywhere and can also be used as hard currency.Use it as a reference for comparison.

She said directly: "In Ningcheng, you can buy good refined salt for just two cents."

After saying this, everyone looked at her with wide eyes.

There is no more intuitive comparison than this number.Although they are poor now, they still have some money in their hands.

As long as you take it to Ningcheng, you can live a good life.

Er Ming swallowed his saliva and said nervously: "Whoever brings silver can exchange it for sun coins?"

He was used to seeing the privileges of noble people. It was absolutely impossible for everyone in Fengcheng to enjoy such a good thing.It is inevitable to worry that the same will happen if you go to Ningcheng.

Wouldn't it be even worse if the silver couldn't be exchanged for money?When the time comes, it will be difficult to live in an unfamiliar place.

Lin Yan nodded affirmatively, "The Sun Alliance advocates equality for everyone. There is no exploitation, no oppression, and no nobles. Everyone's life is supreme. As long as you abide by the law, the alliance's laws will protect the rights and interests of all citizens and will never allow Someone is above the law. To put it bluntly, in Ningcheng, as long as you catch evidence that the city lord has violated the law, you can go to the court, the Supervisory Yuan or the public security department to file a complaint. After verification, you will be rewarded. City lords who break the law will be punished.”

Niu Dashan and others looked stupid. Although they saw the good things in Ning Cheng, they had not been exposed to them in depth and had not seen the essence of the alliance.

Anyone who dares to say such bold words in Fengcheng will be beheaded.Arguing against the nobles and lords of the city will lead to death.

Seeing their frightened expressions, Lin Yan smiled and continued: "Don't think it's incredible, everything I said is true. What you hear now may not be true for you, but you will understand after you go to Ningcheng and experience it for yourself. ”

Someone with a longer reflection arc asked at this moment: "Then I have five taels of silver. I can exchange it for five yuan in Ningcheng, which is five hundred cents, and I can buy 250 kilograms of refined salt. In other words, in Fengcheng I can exchange The money you spend to buy one kilogram of refined salt can buy 250 kilograms in Ningcheng. Is that what you mean?"

When several pairs of eyes stared at him, he said nervously: "Did I make a mistake in my calculation?"

Niu Dashan patted him on the shoulder: "No, you are right."

The man chuckled, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's pack up and leave. I don't want to stay any longer."

Everyone burst into laughter. They had already said that they would move away in five days.

The purpose of gathering here now is to ask Miss Mihua some more questions, so as to avoid Ning Cheng being caught blind.

Lin Yan did not stay long, leaving time for them to discuss with their families.

They are all bringing their families with them, so it is not easy to move the whole family.

Returning to the inn with Mi Yang, she said: "The cold season is coming, and we may have to spend it here. You prepare some supplies for the winter, wait for Niu Dashan and others to move out, and store them in his house."

"Are we going to live at Dashan's house?" Mi Yang seemed not to have expected her to plan like this.

"The cold season is long, so living in an inn is not a long-term solution. It just so happens that the house over there is vacant. It will be easier to move there without people around, and it will be more convenient to do things. In addition, I will write a letter and give it to the receptionist when you send Niu Dashan and the others out of the city. Man, please send the letter back to Sun City."

Mi Yang advised: "It's better to go back in the cold season, everyone is waiting for you."

The annual general meeting will be held at the end of the year. After the alliance has expanded its territory, there are many things to do. As the chairman, she cannot stay away for a long time.

"Let's do this for now. We'll talk about it later." Lin Yan knew he was right, but she still felt unwilling to come all the way and return without success.

Recently, due to the incident involving Qicheng's envoys, Fengcheng had become more strictly interrogated, so Lin Yan was temporarily on hold.

After Niu Dashan and the others left smoothly, she and Mi Yang moved to Niu Dashan's house. The public explanation was that Niu Dashan's family was going to stay with relatives outside the city for the winter, and they were helping to take care of the house.

Life is difficult for everyone these days, so you are very lucky to have relatives who can help you.

People near Niu Dashan's house had seen them several times before and didn't find it strange.But someone who was interested noticed it and secretly inquired about the whereabouts of Niu Dashan's relatives.

Lin Yan and Mi Yang lived in isolation, and as the cold season was approaching, everyone was busy preparing supplies for the winter. Their own lives were hard, and they had no time to care about other people's families.The two of them settled in peacefully.

In fact, the two people who didn't go out secretly sneaked out and wandered around Fengcheng, collecting all kinds of information.

They focused their attention on Fengcheng's military strength. After all, the two cities were adjacent to each other, but they belonged to different camps. They were both tigers on the other side of the bed.

There are many aristocratic families in Fengcheng, and the biggest among them is undoubtedly the Ling family.Here, aristocratic families have privileges and are allowed to support private soldiers.The private soldiers belonging to this family formed Fengcheng's military strength.

Among them, the Ling family has the largest number of private soldiers. It is the largest family with one hundred thousand private soldiers.This is also the reason why the Ling family has a superior status in Fengcheng.

The total number of private soldiers from the remaining large and small families totaled more than [-]. Their military strength and population made Fengcheng one of the three giants in Tianduan Mountain.

In addition to private soldiers, the family also kept a large number of slaves to farm and work for the family.This group is no less numerous than private soldiers.

"What an evil family. They live by sucking the blood of others but don't treat them as human beings." Lin Yan complained.

At this time, the two of them were staying at Niu Dashan's house. The blood and cruelty they had just seen made them feel very uncomfortable.

Back in the house, Lin Yan couldn't bear it anymore.

"Living human lives are not even as good as ferocious beasts in the eyes of the powerful. They use people as bait and let ferocious beasts chase them for fun. It is too perverted."

Mi Yang's face turned pale. What he had just seen was indeed beyond imagination. He never imagined that the way the rich and powerful enjoyed themselves was so cruel.

It was just dark when they followed an elder of the Ling family into a village. More and more people entered, originally thinking they were spying on a secret.

Who would have thought that a group of people were standing on a high platform, looking down at the specially built Colosseum below.

Then, a group of people were driven in and a wild wolf was released.

The unarmed and ragged people ran as fast as they could under the pursuit of wild wolves, trying to survive.

The result can be imagined, how could they resist the ferocity of the wild wolf.In just a few minutes, the fresh life withered and was torn into stumps and scraps of flesh.

The people on the high platform laughed wildly, wildly and harshly, and their faces were distorted.

That scene was deeply imprinted in Lin Yan's mind, and she wanted to kill those people at that time.

Mi Yang held her tightly and returned to the house, his emotions no longer hidden.

"Those people are worse than animals, and life is a waste. It is better to reach bliss early, and save food, so that more people can have a new life."

Mi Yang couldn't help but want to kill someone, "You're right. When they are alone, I will deal with them one by one." He had never killed anyone before, and his hands were not stained with human blood, but Mi Yang had no murderous intention at all. Don't hide it, those people are a disaster if they live, but if they die early, they can benefit one party.

There were too many people at that time, and it was not impossible for the two of them to kill them quickly, but the consequences would be too great and would easily attract the attention of the powerful.

They were lurking in Fengcheng, just wanting to keep a low profile, figure out the situation secretly, and wait for the time to deliver a fatal blow to Fengcheng.

"No one knows how to kill. It's too cheap to let them die quietly. Don't do anything."

Mi Yang looked at her in surprise. Just now he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone with a knife. Why did he change so quickly?

"Those people's crimes are heinous and they should live worse than death. I would like to see one day, they personally experience the chase and killing in the Colosseum. It is most satisfying to treat others in their own way. It's too cheap to die now. them."

Originally, she thought that killing was just a nod and the torture should not be delayed, but at this moment, Lin Yan changed her mind. Some people did not deserve to die neatly, so they should endure inhuman torture and suffer in a life worse than death.

"Let's be patient for now. When we find the right opportunity, I will let them taste it for themselves. Since they see it so happily, they must like it very much."

Lin Yan smiled playfully, "The rich and powerful families in Fengcheng are really eye-opening. Compared with here, Pingcheng and Yuncheng are just small things. No wonder they can't catch the attention of big cities. Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. Presumably Qicheng and Yongcheng, who are good friends with Fengcheng, will not be too generous, after all, they are a den of snakes and rats."

"We have learned a lot today. The rich and powerful have various ways of enjoying themselves. Later, let them all have a taste of it. These days, we will make a list of people and indicate their favorite ways. Later, we will try it ourselves. ."

Mi Yang looked at her in horror, "Are you serious?"

She looked a little evil at this time. In his eyes, Lin Yan had always been a good leader who was fair, strict, and law-abiding. He was as dazzling as the sun and could not be looked directly at.

But now there is a crack in her image, and a hint of the darkness inside is revealed.

"What, are you scared?" Lin Yan knew what he was thinking. She didn't intend to kill anyone. It would be better to live in peace, but some people didn't deserve it.

Mi Yang shook his head, "I support whatever you want to do."

"I hope you can keep your word. Some people don't deserve to be human, and they shouldn't be treated as the same kind of people."

That night, Lin Yan lay on the bed, tossing and turning.After entering Fengcheng, the scenes I saw kept flashing in my mind.

The next day, during breakfast, Lin Yan told Mi Yang, "You stay here and the person in charge of us will contact you."

"What about you?" Mi Yang stopped chewing. Has this changed again overnight?
Lin Yan smiled and said, "You do your own thing. I will be away for a while. I will come to you if I need anything."

"No, my duty is to protect you."

Lin Yan's smile faded, "Mi Yang, I know you do your duty, but sometimes you have to be flexible. There are almost no people who can hurt me here. What are you worried about?"

"Listen to me, don't worry, I won't mess around. I know the responsibility I shoulder, and I won't take risks. I'm just doing one thing."

"where to?"

"I can't tell you for the time being." Lin Yan felt helpless, "You are not as strong as me, so why don't you worry? After following me for so many days, you have seen when I acted impulsively and never acted randomly. You should rest assured about this. That’s it.”

She patted Mi Yang's shoulder and picked up the prepared baggage, "Stay here, don't follow me. I'll be back if something happens."

Looking at the walking figure, Mi Yang pursed his lips and did not catch up.She had already made her decision and couldn't change it.Even if you catch up, you will be driven back.

After getting in touch with her over the past few days, Mi Yang found that Lin Yan looked kind and easy to talk to, and smiled at everyone without any airs. However, she had made a decision and was not allowed to change it.

As the chairman of the alliance, she has a supreme status, so she should stick to her word and not be influenced by others.

Seeing that Mi Yang didn't come after him, Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief.The guy was dull and taciturn, and it was difficult to change what he was determined to do. If she wanted to stick to it, she had to find another way.

According to the information obtained by Xu Hui, Hades has a ghost king staying in each of Fengcheng, Qicheng and Yongcheng. As long as this ghost king is found, everything will be solved.

Xu Hui has an idea of ​​the ghost king in Qicheng, but Fengcheng has to rely on her.

Hades acts without traces and is extremely cautious, but it is not absolutely without traces.

The person standing behind the Colosseum last night was not the Ling family, nor any other aristocratic family. The background was mysterious and unpredictable, and the aristocratic family kept it secret.

Lin Yan smelled it, and she planned to get to the bottom of it.

In Fengcheng, the forces that can be feared by the nobles of various aristocratic families will never be unknown people.

She squatted in the Colosseum for two days and found nothing. On the third day, the Colosseum suddenly became lively.

The noble people I met that night came together, talking and laughing, and looking sanctimonious.Lin Yan, who was hiding in the dark, clenched his back molars as he looked at the familiar faces.

I really didn't expect to see each other again so soon. It was broad daylight, and a group of people were smiling and chatting, and they were polite. It seemed like that was the case.

In Lin Yan's eyes, there was only hypocrisy and filth.

What is the purpose of a group of rat-like monsters and people with evil thoughts gathered here during the day?
She suppressed the rising flames in her heart and placed her hand on the handle of the knife, ready to go.

The leader is Ling Shouze, the elder of the Ling family. Even the bright silk and satin cannot cover his fat body. His big face is even worse. His crowded facial features cannot be seen clearly. His cloudy old eyes are disgusting no matter how you look at them. .

But the group of luxuriously dressed people seemed unable to see this, smiling brightly, flattering, and saying flattering words as if they were free of charge.

After looking at it for a while, Lin Yan turned his attention to the person opposite Ling Shouze. This person looked to be in his fifties and was He Zhangyin, the head of the He family.

This man was the same generation as the city lord Ling Shansong, and was a generation younger than Ling Shouze.

The two of them had just been chatting and joking for a while when Zhuangzi's steward approached and said with a smile: "Keep your nobles waiting, today's excitement is ready, please move on."

"Manager Lu, what is it about that makes it so mysterious?"

Ling Shouze also smiled and said: "Manager Lu, you invited us here. You have no reputation for inviting us here. But today you didn't say anything and only asked people to come. You also said that you would regret it if you missed it. The more this happens, the more it makes people feel unbearable. .”

Manager Lu smiled flatteringly and said: "This is my master's intention. It is a worthwhile trip for the noble custodians to return home today."

The more he said this, the more interesting it became.

"My nobles, please move here. My master is treating you kindly. You will know when you get to the place."
