This location is too broad, at least it can be specific to which province or city!
Chen Dong realized that he and the old man were talking to each other like a fool. Neither of them could understand the other's words, and they thought the other was as stupid as a pig.
Chen Dong said helplessly: "Uncle, tell me, where is the nearest city from here?"
The old man finally understood this sentence and finally said: "Shuangyang City is a hundred miles away from here."
Shuangyang City?
Chen Dong carefully searched for this place name in his mind, but he really didn't have any memory at all. He didn't even know which province it belonged to.
However, it is impossible to have heard of every one of the hundreds of cities in Yanxia Continent. Once you get to Shuangyang City, are you still afraid that you don’t know which province it is, and that you won’t be able to get to Beijing?
Chen Dong immediately cupped his hands and thanked him, and then said: "Uncle, which direction should I go?"
"Continue going north..." The old man looked at Chen Dong up and down: "You are not going to travel all night, are you?"
"Yes, I have to travel all night."
Chen Dong couldn't wait to go to Beijing. The day of execution had passed and he didn't know whether his father was dead or alive.
"You're crazy!" the old man shouted: "At this point, there are so many wild beasts moving outside, and there are countless ravines and cliffs in the mountains. If you are not careful, you can be shattered to pieces!"
"Yes, and it's easy to get lost at such a late hour. You might wander around in circles and be still in the same place after a night. Why not wait until tomorrow morning to go into the city with me." A little girl suddenly walked out, looking like a little girl.
He was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he was also wearing animal skin clothing.
"Xiaoya, why did you come out?" the old man asked.
"Grandpa, I heard someone talking to you." The little girl replied, and then said to Chen Dong: "And brother, you are in tatters and bleeding a lot, so you should take a rest and recuperate.
Let’s leave again tomorrow.”
Chen Dong is not afraid of wild beasts or cliffs. Now that he is at the level of a psychic, walking in this place feels like walking on flat ground.
However, getting lost is indeed a problem.
Chen Dong raised his head and looked at the sky. It was pitch black, not even a single star.
It would be nice to have a mobile phone with a compass.
Chen Dong originally wanted to borrow a mobile phone to use, but it seemed that the other party didn't even have decent clothes, and he couldn't see any electrical appliances at home, and he didn't know what they were on the plane, so he probably didn't have a mobile phone.
Chen Dong looked at the little girl: "Are you going to the city tomorrow?"
Xiaoya said: "Yes, grandpa and I just killed two wolves today and skinned them to sell in the city tomorrow. You can go with me then."
Chen Dong had no choice but to say: "Then I'll excuse you."
Although the old man's previous attitude was not good, he did not stop Chen Dong from entering the house to rest.
Chen Dong entered the house and found two wolves paralyzed on the ground. The wolf skins had been almost peeled off, and there were two hunting knives lying next to them.
It seems that the grandfather and grandson have been skinning the wolf all night long and have not rested until now.
Xiaoya brought water and asked Chen Dong to clean his body, and also brought an animal skin for him to wear.
As a modern person, Chen Dong hated wearing this kind of thing, but his clothes were in tatters, so he could only make do with them for the time being.
After cleaning and putting on the animal skin, Xiaoya said with a smile: "I didn't expect that my brother is quite handsome."
The old man said coldly next to him: "What's the use of being handsome? Can you support me?"
The old man never listened to what he said, and Chen Dong didn't argue with him. After all, the other party took him in.
Chen Dong said: "Uncle, Xiaoya, thank you. It's a pity that I don't have any money with me, otherwise I would give you more."
Since the advent of mobile payment, I am now too lazy to carry money when I go out.
Chen Dong added: "When I enter the city tomorrow, I will find a bank to withdraw some money for you."
The old man and Xiaoya looked at each other in confusion, as if they didn't understand Chen Dong's words.
Xiaoya said: "Brother, are you talking about the bank?"
Bank?!
It's really an ancient name. No matter how isolated the grandfather and grandson are, they should go to the city often. Why do they call the bank a money bank?
Chen Dong said helplessly: "Yes, I will find a bank tomorrow."
Xiaoya smiled and said: "No need, I'm just taking you in for one night, and that animal skin isn't very valuable."
But the old man took advantage of the opportunity and said: "He has money, what can we do?"
Then he said: "I will go to the city with you tomorrow."
It seems that he has to personally guard Chen Dong to collect the money.
Xiaoya glanced at Chen Dong helplessly, but Chen Dong smiled indifferently. The most important thing he lacked now was money.
That night, Chen Dong slept at the old man's house.
Lying on the bed, Chen Dong tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. His mind was filled with thoughts of his father, and he didn't know how his father was doing now.
After finally staying up until dawn, Chen Dong jumped up.
However, seeing that Xiaoya and the old man were motionless, I could only sit cross-legged and meditate for a while to practice Qi.
After being dyed overnight, the Ruyi Pei turned dark green and even faintly black. This was a phenomenon that had never happened before.
Chen Dong then absorbed the spiritual energy that Ruyi wore.
The aura of the Black Wind Mountain Range is already rich, no less than that of the Qi Training Tower of Qingyun Temple. After the transformation and storage of Ruyi Pei, the purity has been increased many times.
An hour later, Chen Dong absorbed all the spiritual energy stored in Ruyi's belt and clearly felt that the internal energy in his Dantian had increased a lot.
I tried to condense the Qi Sword, and it was more than twice as big as before.
Good guy, if you practice Qi here, you can survive at least ten days in one day!
After you rescue your father, you might as well return here to practice, or even move the Feixing Tower here.
With sufficient spiritual energy and his ability to refine medicine, why worry that Feixing Tower cannot become the number one sect in the world?
At this moment, the old man and Xiaoya also got up.
After the two briefly freshened up, they carried the wolf skin and went out with Chen Dong.
Only then did Chen Dong notice Xiaoya's appearance. Although she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, her features were delicate and graceful. She was already a beauty. She would be even more beautiful when she got older.
The three of them were all dressed in animal skins and looked like three primitive people.
There were more than ten families living here, and they all came out one after another at this time, also wearing animal skins, some carrying bows and arrows, and holding animal traps.
"Old Li, let's go to the city!" someone said hello.
"Yes, enter the city!" the old man said gruffly, obviously he had this attitude towards everyone.
Others didn't care and continued to ask: "Old Li, who is this man? The grandson-in-law you recruited?"
"I'll recruit your mother!" the old man scolded fiercely: "You're an idiot who got lost in the mountains, and now he wants to follow us into the city!"
More than a dozen households burst into laughter.
Wearing animal skins, Chen Dong was not used to it at first, but after seeing so many people wearing animal skins, he gradually adapted to this environment.
"Let's change clothes after we get into the city."
Chen Dong thought so.
Chen Dong followed Lao Li and Xiaoya and walked forward. As expected, there were many wild animals and ravines along the way.
One of them was quite old, the other was quite young, and they were carrying dozens of kilograms of wolf skins on their backs. They walked as fast as they could without breathing.
Sometimes when they encounter a lone beast, the two of them can work together to get rid of it, and then draw a circle around the dead beast to show that the beast already has an owner and other hunters cannot touch it.
Of course, if they encounter a more powerful beast, the two of them will hide for a while.
The three of them walked a hundred miles of mountain road in only two hours.
Chen Dong alone would definitely be faster, but Lao Li and Xiaoya are just ordinary people!
Chen Dong couldn't help but sigh, this Black Wind Mountain Range is indeed a good place to raise people. Living here, everyone will probably live a hundred years, and their life span will be longer than that in Nanshan Mountain.
"Brother, Shuangyang City is ahead." Xiaoya said.
Chen Dong nodded and couldn't help but feel excited.
We finally arrived in the city and could take a plane to Beijing!
——Even if the city is too small, there should always be high-speed rail, trains, and buses. Just go to a slightly larger city.
Chen Dong raised his head and looked forward, and what he saw was a simple and thick city wall. There were many guards in armor standing on top of the city wall, patrolling back and forth.
what the hell?!
Could it be that Shuangyang City is still an ancient city, and the local city owner deliberately arranged it like this in order to develop tourism resources?
——There are many ancient cities doing this in hot summer.
Although Chen Dong was surprised, he didn't take it seriously and continued to follow Lao Li and Xiaoya forward.
But when he reached the bottom of the city gate, Chen Dong was completely stunned.
There are indeed many people coming and going, and Shuangyang City looks very lively.
But they all wore ancient clothes, some wore silk and satin, some wore burlap, and many like Lao Li, Xiaoya, and Chen Dong wore animal skins.
What...what's going on?
Chen Dong was really in a daze. He knew that in order to enhance the local culture, some ancient cities would dress vendors and staff in ancient costumes to create an immersive feeling for tourists.
Some tourists enjoy it and wear similar clothes to play in the city.
But no matter what, it’s impossible for everyone to put on ancient costumes!
There are always a few people wearing modern clothes.
When I look around now, I see that they are all in ancient costumes, with no one even using a mobile phone.
"Brother, let's go. Why are you so dazed?" Xiaoya looked back at Chen Dong.
"Oh..." Chen Dong quickly followed, still extremely horrified in his heart.
Entering the city, Chen Dong kept looking around.
There is no trace of modernity, not even a bit.
Even if the ancient city is perfectly restored, there will still be telephone poles, street lamps, manhole covers and other items on the streets.
But there is nothing here, nothing.
Even under the feet, there are only bluestone slabs, no asphalt or cement.
"This...this..." Chen Dong looked pale and sweating profusely, as if he was in a dream.
"Boy, the bank is here, please withdraw money for us!" Lao Li suddenly grabbed Chen Dong and pointed to a shop next to him.
Chen Dong turned around and looked around. The four big characters "Crescent Bank" were clearly visible.
"Where...is this place?" Chen Dong asked in a trembling voice.
