Longevity: God of War

Chapter 7 Refugees enter the city
Many refugees are penniless. In order to survive in the city, they will choose to sell themselves to wealthy families. In this event, some rich local players will also take advantage of this to buy some refugees as servants.

However, vagrants are almost useless to players. Firstly, the price to buy vagrants is not low, and vagrants' roots and understanding are almost not high, and they don't have much value for cultivation.

Second, after buying a refugee as a servant, the player needs to bear the food and shelter of the refugee, and in many cases the gain outweighs the loss.

But even so, there are still many local rich players who are willing to pay high prices to buy some refugees. The reason is that "Flying Immortal" is an extremely real world, and each NPC has its own wisdom and soul. Even gender exchanges are possible.

Coincidentally, some young girls among the refugees either sold themselves to bury their fathers, or had to sell themselves for money in order to subsidize their families.

The targets of many players are these girls.

In addition, some refugees would set up street stalls in open spaces outside the city, and sell their properties in exchange for money.

Players may pick up leaks on these stalls, buy some valuable jewelry, jade or metal ore, or buy swords in the hands of some blacksmith refugees.

Lu Yang's current goal is naturally the superior secret martial art in the hands of the beggar - [White Ape Forging Sutra].

But to get the [White Ape Training Sutra], he must first get a token, and that token is now on the body of a certain refugee.

……

The next day, the sky gradually brightened and the red sun rose.

The government finally ordered that Kaesong accept refugees from various villages in the west of the city, but out of hundreds of refugees, less than [-]% poured into the city.

These [-]% of the refugees are those who have a little savings, or have skills, and are confident that they can make a living in Luoyan City.

As for the remaining [-]%, some set up street vendors outside the city to sell some miscellaneous goods, and some simply wrote down the signs of selling themselves, waiting for those who were willing to bid to buy themselves.

The usually peaceful outside of the city suddenly became lively. Many wealthy families in the city planned to buy some refugees as servants, and some civilians wanted to pick up leaks on the street stalls.

Lu Yang mixed in with the crowd and came outside the city.

Looking around, these refugees who set up stalls are all ragged and disheveled.

Lu Yang didn't know who owned the token, so he had to search the stalls one by one.

There are not many things on the stall, but they are all small, portable and practical, and the prices are very affordable.

After all, these people are just refugees, so what valuable items can they have?
As Lu Yang was walking, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

Then, his eyes fell on the booth in front of him.

The stall owner is a father and son, and the son seems to be about the same age as Lu Yang.

In their stalls, there are pots and pans, as well as some farm tools and clothing.

Lu Yang glanced around and his heart skipped a beat, but on the surface he remained calm and reached out to pick up something from the booth.

"How do you sell this?" Lu Yang asked.

This is a piece of tortoise shell with a simple texture and a yellow-green surface. The middle of the tortoise shell is hollowed out. It looks like a tool for fortune-telling and divination.

Seeing Lu Yang's question, the father at the booth smiled enthusiastically, stretched out three fingers and said, "If you really want it, little brother, you can just give me three dollars."

This tortoise shell was originally a miscellaneous item with no value, now that Lu Yang wanted to buy it, he was naturally overjoyed.

Only Lu Yang knew that the origin of this tortoise shell was not simple.

More than [-] years ago, a knight with extraordinary skill was hunted down by the enemy and was seriously injured.

In order to avoid being chased and killed, the knight-errant fell into a turbulent river, went down the river and was finally rescued by a blind fortune-teller outside Luoyan City.

The blind fortune-teller was very kind. He not only took in the knight, but also took good care of him and bought medicinal materials to heal his wounds.

Under the careful care of the blind man, the knight finally recovered from his injuries.

In order to thank the blind man for saving his life, he not only gave the blind man a large sum of money as a reward, but also bought a brand new tortoise shell for the blind man to use for fortune-telling after learning that the blind man liked to tell fortunes.

Moreover, he made a special mark on the tortoise shell, and made an agreement with the blind man: If there is any difficulty in the future, he can use the tortoise shell as a token to contact him, but he will do whatever he can.

Even if the blind man dies, anyone else holding the tortoise shell will be equally effective.

But the world is impermanent. Not long after the knight left, the blind man fell seriously ill. When he was dying, he wrote to the knight, wanting to see the knight for the last time.

It's a pity that the knight is far away in Qingshi City, which is hundreds of miles away from Luoyan City. When the knight received the letter and rushed over, the blind man had already passed away.

The blind man had no heirs, and after his death, his belongings were divided among the neighbors and some beggars who heard the news. The tortoise shell was lost to nowhere. The knight searched for a long time, but could not find it.

However, the knight is also alone. After his parents passed away, he came to Luoyan City to be a beggar. On the one hand, he enjoys this kind of free life. Tortoiseshell news.

The turning point of the matter happened after the refugees entered the city this time. The two father and son entered the city with a pile of sundries, accidentally dropped the tortoise shell, and were seen on the spot by a knight-errant who was a beggar on the street.

The knight was overwhelmed with joy and surprise. After confirming that the tortoise shell was correct, he explained the situation to the two father and son and asked if there was any need for help. He would definitely do his best.

The young man was very clever, and when he learned that the chivalrous man had extraordinary skills, he asked the chivalrous man to teach him his martial arts.

Since then, the young man has been accepted as a closed disciple by the knight, and he has learned the true biography of the knight, making him famous.

This is a special plot in the previous life "Flying Immortal". Although it was not triggered by the player, it is widely known.

After the first version update, princes from all over the country began to rise, and chaos broke out everywhere. The young man who had already become famous finally chose to join the army. He was a quite famous NPC.

Some players learned about this past after carefully studying his biography. Many players thought that if someone could buy this tortoise shell from the young man in the early days of "Flying Immortal", they would be able to cut off the beard. Teenager's chance.

Lu Yang had seen this on the forum, and only then did today's scene happen.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang nodded, took out three copper coins from his pocket and handed them to the stall owner, picked up the tortoise shell, turned around and was about to leave.

But at this moment, a voice from a booth not far away attracted his attention.

"I'll buy your daughter for five taels of silver, don't you want?" A well-dressed young man was standing proudly in front of a booth, and behind him stood two tall guards.

On the booth in front of the young man, there was a middle-aged man with his two daughters, one of whom was about the same age as Lu Yang, and the other looked less than ten years old.

Facing the young man's persecution, although the man was terrified, he still said: "Young master, I'm really sorry, my daughter just wants to sell herself as a slave, not a concubine, so I ask the young master to hold her high."

In just a few words, Lu Yang roughly understood the reason of the matter.
