Amid the vast mountains, a team of barefoot refugees in Mai-coat slowly advanced.

Thick calluses had long been formed under their feet, and they stepped directly on the soil, rocks and shrubs. Although they were only wearing a thin linen dress, there was a bit of hope and longing on their pale faces in the sun.

At the front of the team, under the long gown, there was a short knife hanging on the belt, holding "Dragon Roar No. 1" in one hand, and the thumb in the other hand scratched the void, which was naturally Li Yu.

"This speed will take at least half a day."

Li Yu looked back at the team behind him. These rescued ordinary people were old and young, men and women. Not to mention that someone exploded the thorns while on the way, they didn't even complain. It can be said that they were very cooperative... or they could see the situation clearly. After all, in this wilderness, there was no price for the strong to kill people.

“Stay a break in front.”

If it weren't for the locals, they would be 100% lost in these primitive mountains.

However, Li Yu's mobile phone navigation has proved its reliability many times, and even thoughtfully marked various creatures, terrain, and water sources...

"There is a stream ahead, you can replenish some water first."

Li Yu pointed to the quiet flowing in the mountain stream ahead, which could be crossed in one step, and then waved to the blond little loli sitting on the trunk next to him gnawing on the spicy strips.

"Flying squirrels, give them half of the dry food we carry."

"Okay~~Young Master,"

Flying down from the big tree, the flying squirrel opened his mouth and reached out to take out several large food boxes from it.

"I can't use it, sir..."

As the flying squirrel opened the food box, there were a wide variety of cooked foods inside: roasted chicken, rice balls, pork, corn... The pale-faced refugees swallowed their saliva with all their eyes, but no one dared to take a step forward. Instead, the leading old man refused in fear.

"It's enough for us ordinary people to have some bran and add wild vegetables. We dare not let the young master spend so much money."

"If you want to eat, I'll go there to get bran and wild vegetables?"

Li Yu waved his hand impatiently, and his attitude made the leader relieved the old man. He called several young men with pale faces to come forward and distributed the food to everyone: If someone fainted from hunger and his words and deeds hit the noble man, they would be afraid that they would be in a dilemma immediately!

Although the 'Young Master Li Yu' seems to have a good temper, who can tell the story of the strong?

In the stories of storytellers, heroes and heroes like to slaughter cities and destroy countries while chatting and laughing. In reality, it is normal to draw swords to face each other when they are disagreeing with each other.

Just as these rescued refugees started to eat, drink and rest, a wolf demon hiding in the bushes could not help but lick his lips in the mountains and forests next to him.

So much bloody food!

It is easy to meet mountain spirits and wild monsters in this vast mountain, but it is difficult to meet a few people. Moreover, those who dare to act alone in this deep mountain forest are either warriors who practice the "hunting scriptures", or all kinds of extremely vicious evil cultivators and thieves. It is not easy to eat humans.

No, you can't give up this opportunity!

After observing all the way, although there was a warrior and the demon he raised to protect, the half-human and half-wolf monster still made up his mind and slowly sneaked towards the resting team.

At his speed, if he just caught a man from the outside and rushed into the mountains and forests, he would be somewhat sure.

He just lost a similar type, so the warrior probably wouldn't care?

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, a white and tender palm stretched out from behind and suddenly covered the wolf demon's long mouth.

?

Before the wolf demon could react, a strange force rushed into his body in his palm, causing the wolf demon to sting all over his body, and his limbs and muscles twitched. He was originally going to raise his claws to fight back, but there was no way to talk about it.

It's a curse...

As soon as this thought flashed through the wolf demon's mind, the palm behind him pulled his head back and revealed his fragile neck. At the same time, the short knife in his other hand stabbed upward quietly and penetrated the wolf demon's jaw!

A short knife pierces the mouth, cerebellum, and brain from the lower jaw... and then the blade is twisted.

The body trembled a few times, and the light in the eyes disappeared, and the life of the wolf demon had disappeared.

He pulled out the short knife and rubbed the blade on the other party's fur. Winnie lifted the corpse of this extraordinary creature and prepared to hand it over to the "Flying Squirrel" with storage ability to take it back.

The extraordinary creature itself is the material of the potion: if there is an extraordinary person who takes the "prisoner" path, using the corpse of this wolf demon, perhaps he can configure the "werewolf" potion in Sequence 7. Of course, in addition to the witch path, Winnie doesn't know the formula of other extraordinary paths, and doesn't care.

———

There were Li Yu and Fei Shi on the surface, and Winnie was escorted in secret. Hundreds of refugees in Mai clothes walked away for most of the day without any danger. The ever-changing mountains and forests on both sides were gradually replaced by circles of terraced fields. The cornfield swaying in the wind shocked these people and their faces showed joy.

Having land means getting close to human villages and towns, while having villages means being able to obtain shelter from the court!

The days that will be used as medicinal materials and alchemy at any time will be unforgettable as long as you experience them once, and you will never want to meet them again.

"Next, will we continue to save people?"

"right,"

"To be precise, gather the population while hunting extraordinary creatures."

Considering that Winnie is from other mainlanders, Li Yu patiently explained to her.

"I'm not doing charity, but preparing for future plans. After all, I'm following the 'craftsmanship', and it's both a craftsman-type approach."

Once the cannon fires, there are ten thousand taels of gold!

Although Li Yu's "Dragon Roar No. 1" is not a cannon, it is amazingly powerful. Being able to easily knock down most of the C-levels is also a huge consumption. With the sad local method of Leyuan County, the output of nitrogen refining is not enough for him to shoot a few shots.

Besides, ordinary people in Leyuan County are still farmers and need to go to the ground to farm.

so:

“I need staff,”

"And, Leyuan County also needs manpower."

Turning over a mountain, Li Yu looked at the foot of the opposite mountain that extended to the mountainside. Because of the previous ghost troubles, this ancient county town with a population of nearly 1,000 is now only less than a hundred people left, and it is just when a large population is needed to fill it.

At the beginning of the journey, Li Yu's plan was to take advantage of the large population here and he has now exceeded his goal.

"If Leyuan County wants to recover, it will definitely require a large population. Even if the court can move people from other places, it is definitely not easy to use the transportation of Qianzhong Road."

Therefore, the most troublesome thing about the "County Magistrate Li" now is to get rid of the manpower gap: no matter how much you encourage childbirth, you will have to wait for more than ten years to achieve results at the earliest. The manpower brought by Li Yu is a real "timely help" for the county magistrate.

There is another reason Li Yu didn't say it.

City God!

According to Feishi, the bigger the city, the stronger the city god is. For example, the largest cities in the Central Plains: Chang'an, Luoyang, and Yangzhou, the city gods are even more said to be invincible by all laws and evil spirits. No monk or warrior dares to be presumptuous in the city. They are truly places where dragons even come.

So Li Yu speculated that the strength of the City God was directly related to the population sheltered!

So for Li Yu, who can bring a large population, the government...

"Brother Li, Brother Li Yu!"

A stack of sounds interrupted Li Yu's thoughts. County Magistrate Li, who was wearing a green official robe, was approaching him quickly, with a book boy holding the corner of his clothes behind him.

He brought so many people to Leyuan County, which would have been strange if the county town had no response. If it weren't for the leader Li Yu, it would have sounded the alarm. Even so, the few villagers working in the fields could not help but stop the farm work in their hands and look at this strange team.

"Brother Li Yu, these people are..."

County Magistrate Li, who was walking quickly, glanced at the refugees in mahjong behind Li Yu. In fact, he had already guessed in his heart, and he could not hide the joy on his face.

"I killed the evil cultivator Qingyang Taoist Priest, these people are ordinary people imprisoned by him: Unfortunately, the head of the Taoist Priest Qingyang was not brought back. In short, these people were handed over to you. - Or should I take them to Ligao County next door?"

"No, no, just stay in this county!"

Just kidding, the people in Leyuan County are now in decline and everything is in trouble. County Magistrate Li wanted to use one person as two people. How could Li Yu send these refugees to other county towns?

If a large number of refugees were influx in normal times, it might be a burden to the local government, but now: County Magistrate Li only regrets that he is short of manpower.

"Then I'll leave it to you, the county magistrate."

"Please rest assured,"

The young Qingyi County Magistrate patted his chest and emphasized again:

"You and I are of the same age as the same surname, and they are the same kind brothers. Why do you have to be so disgusted?"

···

"So, Brother Li, after I have replenished my weapons, I will continue to hunt: If I encounter imprisoned people, I will send them back and hand them over to you to arrange?"

"Sure, certain!"

———

"It is necessary to establish good relations with the government departments here,"

Without the drag of ordinary people, with the strength of Li Yu and the other two, they could run and advance in the mountains and forests: in fact, the slowest one was Li Yu! Winnie, who was floating next to Li Yu, only needed a little under her feet, and she floated forward like a feather and more than ten meters. Such "light skills" made Li Yu envious.

As for flying squirrels?

She was a squirrel. She really returned home in the mountains and forests. She was able to speed up and even get rid of Winnie.

"The government controls most of the continent, whether it is materials, manpower, or intelligence, it is the strongest force."

While rushing to the road, Li Yu explained to Winnie.

"It is necessary to make good friends with the government. After our relationship with the County Magistrate Li reaches a certain level, we can ask him to help him deliver all the necessary materials to the door. My job is a craftsman, and many things require collective strength."

If it weren't for the people from Leyuan County to mobilize everyone to make the nitrate soil, even if Li Yu could rub the guns and cannons with his hands, would he have to boil manure and make nitrate by himself?

Moreover, there are many materials in Leyuan County at all, but if you use the power of the government, you can easily get it.

"By the way, your potion materials can also be collected through the government."

He looked down at his phone, and Li Yu spoke as he moved forward:
To be continued...
