Chapter 5 Departure

Baishi City, Shangcheng District.

At No. 112, Triumph Street, the Bauhinia Caravan's residence, Su Ming rejected the maid sent by Morton and temporarily lived in the house. In the next time, he planned to continue collecting information about the world while waiting for the Bauhinia Caravan to settle the final payment of the spoils.

Although Baishi City has a prosperous trade, it is located on the edge of the desert and the surrounding environment is average, so the population is only about 50,000. The Bauhinia Caravan will not stay here for too long. After selling some goods and paying off Su Ming's final payment, they set off again.

Su Ming did not travel with the caravan. After all, as he had just arrived in this world, he would easily find abnormalities after staying with these people for a long time. There is a library in Baishi City that contains a lot of books, but it is only open to the nobles. Su Ming spent a lot of effort and paid 200 pieces to obtain a certificate from a down-and-out noble.

The library is located near the central square in the Shangcheng District, and next to it is the city hall. It seems that the people who built this library at the beginning still attached great importance to it, but now, few nobles come to the library to read books.

When Su Ming came here, there was only one administrator and two servants in charge of cleaning in the entire library. After showing the certificates in his hand, Su Ming successfully entered the library.

The library is not small in size and is built with unique rocks in the local area. Due to fire protection and other reasons, there is no light in the library, only natural light, and it looks a little dim, but this is not a problem for Su Ming.

There is no papermaking technique in this world. All the books stored here are made of parchment paper, with a total of about four or five thousand volumes. Although it looks a lot, there is not much content. With the help of tower spirit and constant body knowledge of writing spells, Su Ming recorded all these books in just two days.

With these books, Su Ming has a clearer understanding of the world. In these books, Su Ming discovered that there are also spellcasters in this world, but the number is very small. According to the information recorded in the books, spellcasters often occur in the south of the mainland.

This is undoubtedly good news for Su Ming. Since there are spellcasters, he can trade some magic materials or materials from these spellcasters. The growth of a wizard requires a lot of materials. If he wants to restore his strength, he naturally needs a lot of materials. He only depends on him to collect it alone. So the best way is to go to places with many wizards.

Since he had decided to look for a wizard, Su Ming also began to prepare, first of all kinds of daily necessities. Fortunately, although his equipment had been completely damaged by the Void Storm, the half plane was still retained, but the things inside had been consumed to resist the Void Storm, so it was good to use them to hold things.

A week later, Su Ming left Baishi City with two strong travel horses. One horse was riding and the other horse carried some supplies. Of course, this was just for others to see, and most of the supplies were stored in his half plane.

This world is not safe. Few people go on the road alone. Those who dare to do this are either fools or demon hunters. After Su Ming was mistakenly considered a demon hunter, he directly applied this identity. After learning some information about the demon hunter in the library, he went to the blacksmith shop to build a silver sword.

The most obvious sign of the witch hunter is the silver sword. Usually, the witch hunter will wear two swords, a steel sword and a silver sword. The silver sword is used to deal with those monsters, and the steel sword is used to deal with humans.

A simple map was purchased from the merchant at a high price. Sulun left Baishi City and headed southeast along the simple business road.

A lot of farmland has been reclaimed near Baishi City, and many farmers are working in the farmland. The cultivation technology here is pretty good. At least they know how to use manure, there are many horse-drawn carts carrying cargo on the road, and small merchants passing by will transport various goods to the city.

As the distance from Baishi City became farther and farther away, the number of farmland began to become sparse, and large areas of bushes began to appear in the experiment. Occasionally, some small villages appeared. All of these villages had walls built, which were not high, only about two or three meters, and there were thorny thorns on it.

The farther away from the city, the higher the danger. These villages basically rely on militias of their own organization for protection. The troops of Baishi City rarely come here to clean up nearby monsters.

Of course, although survival here is more dangerous, it is not without any benefits. Living in such a place has a tax rate of half that of the city.

You should know that this is a considerable wealth for farmers. In addition to this reason, another reason is that there are more people who cannot live near the city.

The roads on the ground have become narrower and narrower, from the beginning more than ten meters wide to only two carriages passing side by side, and the road surface has become uneven. Fortunately, this has not had much impact on Su Lun.

The weather is a bit hot, and rushing alone in the wilderness is also a test of human will. Fortunately, when Su Ming left, he specially bought two popular knight novels in White Rock City, "The Countess" and "The Retirement Career of the Sergeant" to pass on some boring journeys.

Riding a horse, looking at the book, he walked forward staggeringly. Finally, before dark, Su Ming came to a nearby town.

The town is not big, but because it is located on a business road, it seems a bit prosperous. Sulun found a hotel to stay in, saying it was a hotel, but it was actually a combination of a pub and a hotel. There was a house in the backyard and a pub in the front hall.

This is also the most lively place in the town. Merchants from all over the country will come here to have a drink. It is also a good place to collect information.

He handed the horse over to the hotel servants and brought it to the backyard to feed, while Su Ming came to the tavern for dinner and asked for some news.

The tavern was almost full, with quarrels, clinking cups, and scolding from maids. Su Ming came to the bar, knocked on the table, and said, "Is there anything to eat?"

"Of course!" The middle-aged man turned to look at Su Ming and said, "What do you want to eat? We have grilled lamb chops, beef stewed with potatoes, mushroom soup, and baked muffins are all very good!"

"Beef stewed with potatoes, and another baked muffin!"

“Do you need wine?”

"Give me a glass of beer!" After saying that, Su Ming flicked his finger and fell steadily on the bar.

"Please hurry!"
