It was the first time he left the core area of the village and saw a prosperous town similar to ancient times. He was not very interested in the prosperous people's livelihood economy and unique humanistic features. He was more interested in the bookstores on the bustling streets of the town he passed.
.
Books have always been the best information carrier to understand the outside world!
, every town he goes to, he will take the initiative to look for bookstores, and then join them to become the "free ticket" party that the bookstore owners hate.
It's a pity that there are many books in the bookstores in the bustling town, but there are no history books that he wants to see most.
In addition to authentic classics, the most popular ones are various novels and miscellaneous books.
Perhaps due to the influence of the prosperity of martial arts in this world, the novels and miscellaneous books in the bookstore, many of which feature chivalrous and righteous stories, are quite reminiscent of some online novels in previous lives.
To his surprise, there were actually some books on martial arts in the bookstore.
For example, he has practiced the Diwaquan and Diwadao to the point of proficiency, as well as a lot of external boxing and palm skills, and more of them are equipment, such as moves and routines such as swords, guns, and sticks.
Time was tight, and the waiter at the bookstore was always watching eagerly. Even with his almost photographic memory, the content he could remember was very limited.
He really wanted to take down all the books that he saw recording various martial arts, as well as the classics and classics that he had not read.
He was short of time and didn't see much. He wanted to buy a book and read it slowly, maybe he could get an introduction to the world here.
In addition, learning more external martial arts will be of great help to improve his actual combat ability.
Also, there were several medical classics mixed in the miscellaneous books. Although they may only have basic contents, they were different from what he learned in the outer hall of his village. He also wanted to buy them and study them slowly.
It's just a pity that I don't have much money, and the price of books is not ordinary expensive.
Although he was itching in his heart, this was the area controlled by the Shanzhai. As an outside disciple of the Shanzhai, it was really hard for him to act recklessly, so he had to reluctantly give up some of his ideas.
In other words, Wu Dong is an out-and-out pauper. The little inheritance left by his deceased parents has long been consumed by him in exchange for food and daily necessities.
The village didn't pay any "departure fee", it just allowed him to eat, drink and stay at very low prices at the bases along the way. He really didn't have much money in his pocket at the moment.
Maybe he was poorer than the five handyman disciples who were traveling with him. Who knows, these guys basically have family members to support them.
He was not so low-ranking that he tried to blackmail the five handyman disciples who were traveling with him to raise funds, so he could only temporarily give up the idea of buying books on a large scale.
I just don’t know if there is a bookstore in Linjiang Town, my destination?
If so, given his status, the "white ticket" will never be disturbed by the store there.
With some expectation, I walked smoothly through the bustling plain towns and plunged into the endless mountains and forests.
Following the guide's introduction, the group walked through hundreds of miles of rugged and difficult mountain forests to reach their destination, Linjiang Town.
It's just that this dense mountain forest, which is hundreds of miles wide, is not that easy to walk.
The roads in the mountains and forests are rugged and difficult to navigate, with many ups and downs and thorns, but the most frightening thing is the jackals, tigers, leopards, poisonous insects and poisonous snakes in the mountains and forests.
According to the guide, the tigers and leopards in the mountain forest have amazing fighting power, and if they encounter the team, they are likely to suffer heavy casualties.
Roar!
A tiger's roar shook the forest, and instantly all the birds and beasts were frightened.
There seemed to be a moment of silence in the mountains and forests for miles around.
Wu Dong and his companions were trekking through the rugged trails in the mountains and forests.
A sudden and astonishing tiger roar made his heart tremble, his hands and feet weak, and boundless fear surged in his heart.
It's not that they are really afraid, but a physical instinct, a reverence for the being at the top of the food chain.
drink!
Hearing the sound of wind approaching quickly in the forest, Wu Dong's eyes turned cold, his chest suddenly bulged and he shouted loudly.
This drink is like thunder on the ground!
The guide and the five handyman disciples, who were originally in a state of shock, immediately woke up and looked at Wu Dong who made the sound.
"What are you doing standing still? Get ready for battle!"
Wu Dong shouted angrily, rushed to a big tree with his hands clasped in a few steps, and climbed up to the crown of the tree, which was more than three feet high.
Looking back, I saw that the guide and the five handyman disciples had dispersed, and they were all hiding behind the wide tree trunks, looking carefully towards the direction from which the whistling wind was approaching rapidly.
Their movement speed and strength are obviously a notch behind Wu Dong!
There was no time to climb up a tree to escape, so I could only rely on the wide trees in the forest for cover.
Including Wu Dong, the group was both nervous and depressed at the moment...
Needless to say, they were nervous. The roar of a tiger that shook the mountains and fields could scare them to the point where their minds went blank for a moment and their hands and feet became weak. This revealed the identity of the visitor - the tiger, the king of the mountains and forests!
According to the guide, the tigers in the mountains and forests they were traveling in were quite powerful, and if an average expert were not on guard, they would most likely be killed directly by the tiger's mouth.
The general experts mentioned by the guide are basically the best among the disciples of the outer sect of the village, or they are the disciples of the inner sect who have just entered the village.
Except for Wu Dong, whose strength was unknown to anyone present, the other five servant disciples and the guide did not have such strength.
But Wu Dong couldn't even enter the inner door...
Once they encounter the unique tigers in the mountains and forests here, it will definitely be extremely dangerous for the group.
What was depressing was that their journey after entering the mountains was too bumpy.
Not long after entering the forest, the group encountered venomous snakes and venomous insects from time to time.
Fortunately, the guide has a certain ability to survive in the wild, and the leader Wu Dong also has good survival skills in the wild. At least the group did not suffer from poisonous insects and snakes, and there was no non-combat attrition.
But after traveling hundreds of miles into the rugged mountains and forests, the group began to encounter attacks by wild beasts.
Not long ago, they were besieged by a group of about a dozen mountain wolves. Fortunately, the mountain wolves were not big in size and had average combat capabilities. They relied on stalking and group attacks to annihilate the enemy.
Although their martial arts skills were average, under Wu Dong's coordination, they not only withstood the attack of a small group of mountain wolves, but also killed half of them to scare them away.
During the battle, Wu Dong's performance of killing two mountain wolves with one kick and two kicks shocked the five servant disciples who were accompanying him. They no longer dared to doubt Wu Dong's strength in private. At least the five of them combined
You may not be able to beat this guy.
The mountain leopards and wild boars encountered later were all injured and frightened away by Wu Dong, who commanded five servant disciples and the guide.
It's not that I don't have the idea of taking down these sneak attack beasts, it's just that my strength doesn't allow it.
