The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 716 The Cloud of War
War is not such a rare thing. Although Lin Xiaogeer has never really seen it, it is only because he doesn't want to get close to it.

Eastern China is one of the few peaceful places in the multiverse world. Disputes between monks are limited to monks, and conquests by mortals are also limited to mortals. Compared with many places where monsters are rampant, natural disasters, man-made disasters and nonsense, Eastern China is indeed peaceful.

However, even in Eastern China, there is never a day when there is no war, especially in the turbulent Leizhou.

The war is actually very close to Lin Tianci, just like the plane of Sevilla.

Brother Lin went to Sevilla twice in a row and didn't encounter war. Unfavorable, the neighboring countries are about to hit Nordhallan as the capital, and the battle situation has indeed improved during the second visit, but it is not out of the worry of extinction.

Mei Li once mentioned to Brother Lin that Seville's world map is like a stained glass plate, with various small countries criss-crossing and messy.

Therefore, it is not uncommon to encounter wars when traveling to other planes. It can even be said that Lin Tianci has only encountered a real war until now, which is considered a great fortune.

Go along the side of the alley to avoid the potholes and muddy puddles, turn around a small bend, and you will see the exit.

After walking a few steps, Lin Tianci came to the street.

The place where he appeared seemed to be a relatively spacious main road in the city. Compared with the mess in the alleys, the streets were much tidier.

Of course, this neatness is right.

Because the field of vision has become wider, Lin Tianci can clearly see the scars left by the war.

The surrounding stone houses are okay, most of them are relatively complete, only a few unlucky ones seem to have been knocked down by rolling stones projected by catapults, while some wooden buildings are still breathing black smoke.

Looking further afield, this is not uncommon.

The surviving people cried and dug up the corpses of their relatives from the ruins. The heart-piercing cry was like maggots on the tarsus bone, and it penetrated into the ears faintly.

Even if you look carefully, you can even find the remains of the dead scattered on both sides of the street. Some of them died from arrows, some were smashed to death by building debris, and some were burned into coke, and they were quietly crushed in the ruins ,Nobody cares.

The smell of blood, burnt smell, and cries are mixed together, as if there is a terrible ghost floating in your ear.

This is the smell of war.

The cruel and fierce battle only revealed the tip of the iceberg to Lin Tianci, and there were more tragedies happening where he couldn't see.

Sai Li once said that you humans like to do big deaths the most.

——I always feel that it is really impossible to refute.

Looking to the left, the line of sight can go straight to the city gate along the spacious street, some damaged city walls and scarred defensive buildings, such as arrow towers.

But what is more, is the black smoke that has not been extinguished rising from all over the city.

If you look further away, at the end of your field of vision, you can see a mountain range across there, the whole body is gray and white like death, but at the top of the mountain range, it is covered with a blue glacier.

It is like an oversized hat, directly buckled on the mountains, and the cool breeze blows from the glacier, which feels a bit refreshing in autumn.

Although it still can't blow away the haze of war.

And look to the right...

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

A group of shouting soldiers dispersed the people who were crying bitterly on the street, and they rode their horses to run wildly on the street, apparently without any scruples about bumping into people. They would remind them loudly, just because if they bumped into people, it would delay time. .

Horseshoes stepped on the stone road, rumbling like thunder and rumbling like torrential rain, Lin Tianci, who had just walked out of the alley, had to retreat again.

Visually, a cavalry team of about 500 people headed towards the city gate with a stream of smoke and dust.

Unfortunately, all signs indicated that Lin Tianci was involved in the war, and the battle might not be over yet.

War is cruel, and Brother Lin does have some compassion for the refugees around him, but he did not travel to be a savior, but to find the fragments of the extremely blue star.

To put it more seriously, if the evil cultivators really make a comeback, the situation in Eastern China will not be much better than it is now, or even worse.

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world.

Brother Lin can't save everyone, he's not that great, nor is he that strong.

After calming down, he began to think about how to start his actions on this plane. Before that, he had to find a suitable foothold.

Finding fragments is definitely not something that can be done in a day or two. There is a big error in the crossing of the Three Realms Gate, at least within the scope of a city, the largest...

Just forget about the biggest things.

Secondly, Brother Lin also needs a stable and reliable source of information, such as whether anyone has seen the 'Meteor from the Sky'. Whether it will open again is another question.

Being involved in the war is very detrimental to the search work, because the soldiers are in turmoil, and it is difficult to collect information. In addition, the fragment of the extremely blue star seems to be a piece of blue crystal with high purity, and it may be regarded as treasure or military. Funds are looted, these are issues that need to be considered.

But before these two things, there is one more imminent thing.

During the war, showing up as a traveler could easily cause unnecessary troubles, and if someone was regarded as a spy, there would be no reason to reason.

After all, how can any traveler go to a place where there is a war?It's usually just to avoid it.He needs a new identity that will not be restricted in his actions, at least he will not be regarded as a spy and grab soap in the prison.

So, is there anyone who will not be restricted in movement in a warring country, but will receive preferential treatment?

Lin Tianci thought for a while and retreated into the alley. When he came out again, he had a medicine box slung across his body.

This thing was custom-made by someone after he returned to Shenfu Mountain. It was filled with regular medicines, as well as gold needle cupping jars for doctors and even sharp knives.

Lin Tianci's medical performance is the worst among several friends, except for Wu Dazhuang, he is the worst.In terms of level, they are not necessarily better than ordinary doctors in Eastern China.

However, the level of medical treatment in Eastern China is already considered excellent in the multiverse world. Many planes are very friendly to doctors. After all, things are rare and expensive.

In addition to the previous successful experience in the country of fairies, Lin Tianci prepared this medicine box. As a traveling doctor, he will at least receive preferential treatment from the common people, and he can also use the name of seeing a doctor to collect information about the extremely blue star , can be counted in one fell swoop.

With a new identity, he can now proceed to the next step, finding a foothold and gathering intelligence.

Not far along the main road, Lin Tianci saw a tavern that was still open.

It was a building on the second floor, and it seemed that board and lodging should be provided. He planned to rent a room and inquire about information in the tavern by the way.

The door of the tavern let out groans from being treated roughly, Lin Tianci walked into the tavern listening to the squeaks in his ears.

Under normal circumstances, the tavern is usually full of people, and the sound of drinking and talking and laughing can make the ears of those who come in for the first time buzz.

However, the tavern that Lin Tianci came in was not as noisy as before, only a mess.

A lot of eaten or uneaten food and dinner plates were thrown on the ground, and the crumbs of various food and drinks were scattered all over the floor, as if a carnival had just been held here.

The person who should be the owner of the bar stood behind the counter, looking at the mess all over the floor, and sighed again and again. When the door made a sound, the owner shivered, and then found that Brother Lin came in, and finally felt relieved.

"Traveler? Don't you see that Greyridge is at war?"

Brother Lin only knew that this place was called Gray Ridge City.

He walked to the bar, casually pretending that he was a doctor, and he traveled all over the world to hone his medical skills.That's why when I saw a war, I took the initiative to come over to see if there were any wounded in need of treatment.

These reasons seem to make sense to the bar owner, or maybe he didn't care much about it.

"any drinks?"

Brother Lin looked at the drink rack behind the bar owner, he didn't know a single word on the label...

So I had to say something casual.

The bar owner casually poured him a glass of amber apple brandy. This wine is fermented with apple juice and is being distilled. It needs to be stored in oak barrels for at least three years.So the bouquet has a hint of oak, and it is a real high wine.

——Is this boss planning to sell a cup at a high price?

Brother Lin didn't pay too much attention, he took a sip and asked:

"How is this going?"

He pointed to the mess all over the place.

The bar owner let out a big sigh:
"It's not those bastards. The city wall was attacked last night, and the enemy army was repulsed only this morning. So these small officers who survived the catastrophe brought people to my place to mess around."

It sounds like the boss doesn't like them very much.

It is normal for soldiers to protect their homes and defend their country. After winning a battle, it is normal for them to go to a tavern to relax. Besides, they are also fighting for the common people in the city.

The bar owner shouldn't dislike them so much, can he?Or did you say no money?

This matter was a little weird, but Lin Tianci didn't ask directly, that seemed too abrupt, but made roundabout remarks, and finally heard the whole picture from the bar owner's mouth intermittently.

It turns out that these soldiers are actually considered 'rebellious troops'.

In other words, they were also soldiers stationed here after capturing the city, and they had already done a lot of bad things.And when another wave of people came to fight, they left only a very small number of troops, and forced a large number of civilians to go up to the city wall, so that the enemy would use their weapons to delay the time.

Not to mention whether the tactics are brilliant or not, the status of these soldiers in the hearts of the local people can be imagined.
