Chapter 620 Dumo Province

"They really did stay here and bought a lot of dry food and fresh water. But it seems that one of them was injured because when they went to the market to buy elixirs, they were recognized by someone. This attracted the attention of the Chixia Sect!"

Pu Yanlan was both happy and worried. She was happy because there was news from the Tianyi Sect, but she was worried because she didn't know who was injured and how serious the injury was.

Gu Shi said,
"It's good to have news, but they are about 20 days ahead of us. As long as our ship is fast enough, we may be able to catch up with them when they enter the Far North!"

Pu Yanlan nodded. The people from Tianyi Sect had to hide, but they didn’t. Maybe they could really catch up?

So on the second day, they left Giant Rock Island and set off again. After another three days of travel, they met another group of monks, but this time they did not get any news about Tianyi Sect. After another five days of travel, they met another group of monks. After another ten days of travel, they bypassed Wangnan Province and entered Dumo Province. Here was the territory of the Monk Alliance, but they were charged silver again. Gu Shiyi looked at the bitter faces of Gu and Zhang and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"If they continue like this, I'm afraid that when the medicinal materials reach the Far North, they will have to be sold at sky-high prices to recover the cost. This is killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Not only are they destroying this secular world, but the foundation of the cultivation world will also be destroyed in their hands sooner or later."

Now, the monks on both sides are fighting each other red-eyed. Many people on both sides have died. The monks have not reached the realm of eating wind and drinking dew. They need food, clothing, defecation and sleep. It is good for a dozen mortals to serve one adult. There are also exaggerated ones that require dozens or even hundreds of people to serve. In addition, they need to mine spirit stone mines. Now all their monks are used to fight and occupy territory. They have no manpower to mine spirit stones. They can only hire folk craftsmen, especially those foreign invaders who are mining spirit stones even more crazily. The migrant workers in their territory work day and night in the spirit stone mines. Some die of exhaustion, some die of starvation, and some die of illness. People are thrown into the mountains and another group is recruited into the mountains. Now, in the past few years, all the strong laborers in the folk have been requisitioned to open mines. No one grows crops and food. The price of food has been rising again and again, not to mention the war between the two sides. There are many things like destroyed mountains, cities and fields. Now there is no such thing as Qingling Guard in this world. The cultivators go to war without scruples, making life even more difficult for the people!
Ugh!
It’s all tears if I say too much. We are all struggling to survive in troubled times!

When the merchant ship met the monks of the alliance, it was guided to a port in Dumo Province, where they had to pay silver again before they could turn into the inland river and go to the far north. Dumo Province is adjacent to the north, and the inland river is only navigable in summer throughout the year. However, because the monks' alliance used their great magical powers to melt the ice and snow on the river, the people's merchant ships can travel all year round. Therefore, Gu Shiyi and his friends were willing to pay this sum of silver!

"Brother Gu, we have to take the land route to Tianliang City. I wonder where Brother Gu's wife's family home is?"

Gu Shiyi's eyes turned when he heard this and he replied,
"Oh... that's a coincidence. My wife's family is not far from Tianliang City. It's in Wenxing City, three hundred miles away..."

The two nodded when they heard this.

"That's it. We will first go to Tianliang City to unload the goods, and then look for a land escort agency. After that, we will wait for Brother Gu in Tianliang City!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"it is good!"

The merchant ship did not need to change boats after entering the inland river, because the river was very wide, which was dug out by the monks with great magical powers. Large merchant ships like Gu Shiyi's could sail four abreast. Gu Shiyi said to Pu Yanlan,
"After all, he is a local monk, and he still knows how to do some good things for the people!"

Pu Yanlan sighed,
"I hope the Monks' Alliance can repel these invaders and allow the people to return to their normal lives!"

Gu Shiyi shook his head and smiled, thinking to himself,
"Although Yan'er has changed her body and has lived in this world for many years, she is still the person who lived in the original peaceful world. If the other party discovers this paradise, then this place will never be able to return to the past. The disputes will only increase and become more intense!"

Gu Shiyi has been in the world since he was a child. He has seen a lot of things like this and has long seen through human nature!

In order to cover up the lie, their ship unloaded the cargo in Tianliang City and actually turned to Wenxing City. At this time, they had already gone deep into the hinterland of Modu Province, and the weather was already very cold. Although everyone on the ship, except the boatmen, was not afraid of the cold, they still changed into thick winter clothes to follow the local customs. Gu Shiyi's mischievous taste made all the little fur balls wear bright red and green flowered jackets, running around on the ship. The entire deck was really full of flowers, which made Gu Shiyi laugh for several days!

During the 300-mile journey by water, Gu Shiyi rescued several civilians who had frozen to death on the riverbank. With Pu Yanlan's medicine, their illnesses were cured immediately. He also gave them silver to send them home. Due to the delay, it was already ten days later when they arrived in Wenxing City.

Gu Shiyi found a house outside Wenxing City. The owner of the house was a country squire with only one son and one daughter. The son was doing business in another place, and the daughter was also married to another place. The fox used a little magic to make the country squire and his wife think that it was their daughter who had married far away and came back to visit with her husband and children. Even the child who kept chanting "Amitabha" thought it was their son who was doing business outside and their grandson who was raised by their daughter. They were very happy at the moment, and Gu Shiyi took the opportunity to ask his fake father-in-law about the news in the city.

Wenxing City is a small city, and the fake father-in-law is a permanent resident, so he is well-informed. After thinking for a while, he said,

"As for whether there are any foreigners in the city recently, there is indeed a caravan that settled in the city. However, although it is called a caravan, it did not bring any goods. I heard that they encountered a storm on the sea and all the goods on the ship were lost. They stayed for two days and then left..."

The innkeeper was familiar with the fake father-in-law and complained to him afterwards.

"It seems that these people are not good citizens. Later, the leaders of the alliance came to question them and said that these people are traitors of the alliance. If you see them again in the future, you must report them to the leaders immediately!" "Traitor?"

Gu Shiyi frowned upon hearing this.

"What did Tianyi Sect do to become a traitor to the alliance?"

The fake father-in-law seemed not to have heard what Gu Shiyi said, and continued to talk to himself.

"The world has become increasingly chaotic these years. There are no traitors or non-traitors. We ordinary people just hope that there will be no fighting and that we can live in peace!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"Don't worry, I will leave you some money. You can hire some guards to look after the house. We will be safe and sound in the future!"

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan only stayed in Wenxing City for two days before setting off for Tianliang City. This time, they left Fox, the King, Old Horse and the fur balls in Wenxing City, and asked them to pretend to be Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan and live in a house outside the city. The two of them only took Dragon Soul to Tianliang City!

When Gu and Zhang saw the couple, they were a little surprised.

"Even ordinary people can't stand the extremely cold place. Are you going there too, Madam?"

This woman looks gentle and pretty, but she is thin. I wonder if she can't stand the weather there?
Gu Shiyi smiled and said,

"Don't worry, my wife has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and her physique is much stronger than that of ordinary people!"

Upon hearing this, the two stopped asking questions and set out from Tianliang City the next day without further ado, heading for the snowfield. The snowfields here were not much different from the ones Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan had seen before. They were both places so cold that one's chin could be frozen off. Moreover, the wind and snow here were even stronger and more violent. There were also occasional spiritual storms. This kind of storm had no effect on ordinary people, but once it blew on a cultivator, it would immediately resonate with the spiritual energy in the cultivator's body, causing the spiritual energy to surge. A cultivator with shallow cultivation would die from a burst of dantian after just one blow!

Gu Shiyi and Pu Yanlan, one is a true spiritual body and is not afraid at all, while Pu Yanlan has two golden cores in her body. The two golden cores in her dantian were originally circling around the light left by the demon fetus. When they encountered the spiritual energy storm, they immediately accelerated their rotation, forming a small vortex in her dantian. The spiritual energy from the outside world rushed into her body and was immediately sucked into it!
The spiritual energy on this snowy field is extremely violent. After entering the body, it would disrupt the cultivator's Dantian. Gu Shiyi has a strong body and tough meridians so he is not afraid at all. Pu Yanlan uses these two golden pills to calm the spiritual energy down little by little, and then meditates and cultivates quietly, which can increase her spiritual power. However, Pu Yanlan has flipped through all the ancient books she knows, but has not found out what the demon fetus left in her Dantian, and she is very confused!
Gu Shiyi, on the other hand, understood clearly.

"Don't worry about what it is. As long as it doesn't mean to harm you, just keep it for now. Maybe you can even have a son with it!"

Pu Yanlan felt the hair on the back of her neck stand up when she heard this. She glared at her and said,
"Don't scare me!"

Gu Shiyi laughed and patted his slightly protruding belly.

"What's there to be afraid of? I'm pregnant with a baby too. Why don't you give birth to one too and we can become relatives!"

Can that be the same?

Pu Yanlan rolled her eyes at her. The baby in Eleven's belly was born through normal pregnancy. What does the baby in my belly compare to?

This is something left behind by the demon fetus. If it were really born, we wouldn’t know what kind of monster it would be!
don't want!don't want!
The tall figure suddenly appeared in Pu Yanlan's mind.
"I don't know...how is he now?"

After the escort team entered the snowy plain, they saw many people going to Nuanhu Lake along the way. Many of them came up to ask if they could go with the caravan, but they were flatly rejected by Gu and Zhang.
"The most terrifying thing in this snowy plain is not the ice and snow, but the people... None of the people who come here are easy to deal with. On the surface, they say they are traveling with the caravan, but in fact they are secretly spying on the truth and luring people from outside to attack together. This happens every day. Brother Gu, you must not be soft-hearted!"

Gu Shiyi nodded after hearing this. She was naturally not afraid, but it was better to have less trouble than more. Why get herself into trouble!
