The wolf cavalry formed a conical formation and ran in front. Zong Shen rode Bajie and followed a hundred meters behind.
After a rain yesterday, the pasture was finally no longer dusty when running, and Zong Shen no longer had to eat dirt behind the wolf cavalry.
Encountering small-scale crypt monsters blocking the road along the way, the wolf cavalry directly and aggressively dispersed them, and their sharp sabers could always pick up a piece of stump.
Basically, after each charge, 70% to 80% of the crypt monsters in the monster group can be killed in one go. If there is a large group of crypt monsters, they will take a detour.
As Zong Shen and the others gradually moved away from their territory, they could always see large areas of cave monsters slowly gathering outside the territory of nearby lords.
You can also see the lords working very hard to kill the crypt monsters.
Even along the way, Zong Shen saw with his own eyes a large underground monster tide numbering in the thousands, breaking through a territory that was not very large.
All buildings in the territory, including the lord's courtyard, were destroyed, and all soldiers, farmers and lords were torn apart.
Zong Shen originally wanted to lend a helping hand, but in the end it was a step too late. It was difficult for just one wolf cavalry squad to completely break through the strange tide and break through the blockade.
Faced with this group-like strange trend, Zong Shen decisively ordered a detour. Without taking advantage of the geographical location and military strength, it was unwise to act forcefully.
As more and more monsters emerge from the caves, the pressure faced by the lords every day is gradually increasing. Under such circumstances, the only ones who can continue to explore like Zong Shen are definitely some fairy lords.
Zong Shen was a little sad. Faced with the setting of the lord system, all the lords were unable to resist and could only passively endure it. This was a kind of training that seemed extremely cruel to Zong Shen.
Because the lords are all scattered, this sense of blood and cruelty has been eliminated a lot, and the real cruelty far exceeds that of war.
The reverence for life has been completely lost in the rules. Before the arrival of the new order, only strength is the real order.
Zong Shen followed the wolf cavalry to bypass the giant monster groups and break through the small monster groups. After spending more than an hour, they arrived at Xitano Village.
Due to the influence of the rules, no wandering cave monsters were seen near Sitano Village.
This time, Zong Shen and the others took a detour and entered the village from the other side.
There is a large pasture here with more than a dozen cowsheds. Some of the cows are grazing leisurely nearby, while others are lazily basking in the sun in the pens.
When Zong Shen followed the wolf cavalry to the village entrance on this side, they slowed down, otherwise they would be as menacing as bandits.
Immediately, a group of armed militiamen patrolling nearby walked up quickly and blocked the entrance to the village.
Prepare for the indispensable torture before entering the village. There are many bandits outside the wilderness and they often rob the village.
The small bandits only robbed some cattle, sheep and supplies, while the rampant bandits and bandits directly attacked the village.
Powerful bandits and bandits often have hundreds or even hundreds of people, enough to overpower the village guards.
Like the gangster Carlisle whom Zong Shen eliminated last time, they were just a group of gangsters with average strength.
They were encircled and suppressed by Bosbon's army and suffered heavy losses before they fled to the vicinity of Citano Village. Therefore, every time they saw a menacing person, the guards would be very nervous.
Zong Shen waved the wolf cavalry to stop and rode the tall Bajie in front of the guards. The guards patrolling the entrance of the village were different from the ones last time, so they did not recognize Zong Shen.
"No need to interrogate, this is a friend of our village, Lord Zong Shen!"
"The ruthless bandit Carlisle was annihilated by him!"
At this time, a middle-aged man with a big belly and wearing fine cloth walked out of the village and said to the soldiers patrolling the village entrance.
The person who came was none other than Mr. Mars.
His mansion is at this end of the village, and you can directly see the pasture from the second-floor window.
"Master Mars."
Zong Shen waved and greeted him.
When the armed militiamen heard what Mr. Mars said, they gave way to the road without hesitation.
Mr. Mars is a big family in the village, and he owns the largest pasture in Citano Village. He has a high reputation in the village, so these armed militiamen naturally recognize him.
Zong Shen led the wolf cavalry into the village entrance, and Master Mars also took the initiative to greet him.
"Sir, what a coincidence!"
"You must come to my house with your men later and let me entertain you well."
"What are you doing in the village this time? Maybe I can help."
Mr. Mars greeted him warmly, and Zong Shen rolled off Bajie's back and came to Mr. Mars.
When he heard the local snake from Xitano Village asking for help, Zong Shen didn't show any pretense and directly told Mr. Mars the main purpose of his trip.
"This time I came to the village mainly to buy a batch of grain. I need some from wheat to finished bread, dried meat, sausages, and vegetables. It's best to bring live chickens for me to take back and raise."
"A total of enough food is needed to feed a hundred people for half a month, all of which are traded in dinars, which are commonly used in mainland China."
Zong Shen smiled slightly and talked eloquently.
When Mr. Mars heard this, he immediately patted his chest.
"Sir, please leave this matter to me."
“Grain, vegetables, and meat are not expensive in the village.”
"If the main purchase is food, it will cost about seven to eight hundred dinars."
"Pair it with a certain proportion of dried meat, sausages, and vegetables, and the total amount will be more than two thousand dinars at most."
Mr. Mars calculated with his fingers. As a landlord in the village, he was extremely sensitive to the prices in the village and quickly estimated a price.
The price of food is actually not expensive, especially in Sitano Village, which is surrounded by fertile soil. The villagers have also opened up a lot of farmland, and businessmen from Bangcheng come to buy it every year.
Not to mention meat.
Apart from all kinds of bandit harassment, it is quite peaceful.
"You can take your subordinates to sit at my house first, and I will let my subordinates go and buy them."
"Let's have dinner together. You are Mariel's savior and the benefactor of our whole family."
Mr. Mars said with an eager face, "There are not many people who can make a landowner so enthusiastic."
Zong Shen speculated in his mind and wanted to refuse, but he thought of the convenience brought by working in Xitano Village after establishing a good relationship with Mr. Mars and his daughter Mariel.
He decided to go to the appointment to have a look because Mariel was a green-level hero.
Although this qualification is not very high among heroes, it is still a talent for Zong Shen.
Now that the population of the territory has increased exponentially, it is urgent to solve the problems of logistics and management.
