Chapter 199: There are two days in the sky

Chen Laowu said this politely, but his meaning was very clear.

——Young man, it’s time to say goodbye.

Shen Bai understood this approach very well. The Ningwu Escort Bureau was about to leave the Blood Flag Town for an escort trip. There were many dangers on the road. Bringing a guy like himself who appeared out of nowhere would increase the risk for nothing. It was better to get together and part ways.

He nodded, cupped his fists and smiled:

"Fifth uncle, you're welcome. Thanks to your care along the way, I didn't starve to death in the desert. Shen Bai, a great benefactor, will definitely remember it in his heart." He paused, took out the bright crystal from his arms, and held it in the sun. After some display, he put it in Chen Laowu’s hands:

"This is a kind of gem. If someone knowledgeable sees it, it can be exchanged for some silver."

Chen Laowu played with this transparent and hard gadget in surprise and thanked him repeatedly.

This is the product of Shen Bai using golden flames to burn sand under high temperature and pressure. It is similar to glass and is quite beautiful. It should be considered a rarity here.

After bidding farewell to Chen Laowu, Shen Bai went to bid farewell to Xiaoling. The girl shuddered a little, but she called herself a "child of the world" and forced herself to cheer up. She pouted and said to Shen Bai:

"My name is Chen Ling. Next time we meet, I will become the heroine with the best swordsmanship in the world."

Shen Bai touched her head and left the cavalry.

He did not go far, but hid in a small alley full of shadows. After watching Chen Laowu and other leaders of the Ningwu Escort Bureau enter the largest mansion in Blood Flag Town, he carefully stared at the plaque hanging above, and then quietly walked away.

Shen Bai planned to quietly follow Ningwu Escort, leave this yellow sand along the official road in Xiaolingkou, and go see the outside world.

Since there was still enough time, Shen Bai wandered around the market, searching for available information. Unfortunately, after wandering for most of the day, there was nothing worth noting. He even got a local chronicle "Blood Flag Scenery" at the bookstore. "A Brief Introduction", but after reading it, I gained nothing.

There is no First Stone, no mutated beasts and aberrations, and no precious few words left over from the technological era.

It seems as if Blood Flag Town is really just a big town in distant ancient times.

——This is of course extremely unreasonable.

The year the Darkest Age ended was the first year of the Rebellion Era. At that time, martial arts had not yet been developed, and the Apocalypse had not been born. The main weapons of the established resistance army were still firearms and simple detonators.

Even in the lost era, people will never forget the great invention of "technology".

Walking in Blood Flag Town, Shen Bai kept speculating on various possibilities. When the sky turned dark, he repeated his old trick, heating and compressing the sand into a transparent crystal, and then took it to a pawn shop to mortgage some silver coins of this era. Rented a room in an inn facing the street.

Because he had plenty of money, and he was not from this era, there was no need to be frugal, so he spent money lavishly. He gave the shopkeeper a large silver ingot and asked the cook to "select something tasty and send it up."

With the moon above the treetops, the waiter came in with a ceramic tray, placed it on the table, and bowed out of the room.

Shen Bai took out a few exquisite side dishes on the tray and started to eat dinner with the low-alcohol fruit wine unique to Blood Flag Town. The delicacies from who knows how many years ago rushed to his brain along his tongue, and the fruity aroma in the wine instantly The explosion gave him a strange feeling, as if two time and space were connected together because of the delicious food and wine.

He drank a lot, but because of his strong physical condition, he didn't feel much discomfort. He just felt that his sleep was surprisingly sweet.

On the second day, before he woke up naturally, Shen Bai had already sat up from the bed.

In the vast and infinite sky, two suns hang high, they are exactly the same size, and they both emit blazing light.

——At this time, it is already "Yi year".

Unlike the scorching hell you imagined, the temperature on the yellow sand did not rise very high. If there is a breeze blowing, you can even feel a warm and comfortable feeling.

The residents of Blood Flag Town have become accustomed to it, just like people in the Federation era "March turns into April". An extra sun in the sky is just a trivial matter.

What's more, the temperature and humidity only changed slightly and did not have any impact on the production and life of the residents on Huangsha.

Shen Bai was silent, just staring at the sun and silently estimating the time.

Tomorrow, the large force of the Ningwu Escort Bureau will set off for escort. Then follow them, walk out of the yellow sand, and go to the outside world.

Look at what this era is really like.



Chen Laowu had an unforgettable night last night.

Delicious food that I have never seen before, bright and decent clothes, beautifully carved courtyards, and the maids who come and go wearing close-fitting blouses, showing off their curves, but not at all ashamed, they just cover their mouths and look at themselves with a smile, their eyes seem to have hook.

The family in charge of Blood Flag Town is named Huang. It is said that the Huang family has been here since the birth of this boundless yellow sand.

They are in charge of the life and death of countless people on the Yellow Sand, and have law enforcement, legislative, and taxation powers... every word they speak is a law.

Above the yellow sand, the Huang family is the sky.

Rights that are too lofty will naturally give birth to many unworthy children.

In the past many years, the Huang family has indeed produced many beasts that do not take human life seriously. They enjoy killing and insulting people, and even created a "red power". As long as the people above the yellow sand have The handsome yellow-flowered girl must be sent to the Huang Mansion when she reaches the age of hair. She will be released home a few days later, euphemistically called "Master Huang's Blessing".

With such beastly behavior, the people on Huangsha would naturally start a riot. They once united with the people from all over the country and the sufferers in Blood Flag Town to form an army with strong combat effectiveness, and together they attacked the Huang Mansion.

But in the end, without exception, they were all brutally suppressed by the Huang family.

However, after several big troubles, the Huang family no longer dared to make the endless yellow sand angry. They restrained their descendants and often gave rice and porridge, and their reputation gradually improved.

In Chen Laowu's more than 40 years of memory, it is true that he has never heard of any crime committed by the Huang family. The arrogance and privilege still exist, but they are far more restrained than before.

However, no matter how low-key it is, as a family with the power of life and death above Huangsha, the Huang family's mansion is extremely luxurious. Chen Laowu was almost dazzled by it last night.

But after all, he is one of the leaders of the Ningwu Escort Bureau. He travels all over the country and has much more knowledge than ordinary villagers. He naturally knows the principle of being cautious in his words and actions.

He refused the young maid's request to stay in bed, and he did not dare to drink too much. He only had a few drinks to stay awake at all times.

When the Huang family summoned him this morning, Chen Laowu washed his face with water, cheered up and walked towards the side hall ahead.

At the door, he met several of his brothers with different surnames.

The other people who started from scratch with Chen Laowu are also well aware of the principle of "saying less is better". They didn't lose their composure last night. They glanced at each other, and after the guard passed the news, they walked in together.
