Chapter 5 Enter the city!(1/2)

arms?

Jiang Shi frowned.

I really haven't thought about this issue before.

But this world is so dangerous, it really deserves a weapon.

Although this place is at the foot of Zhenwuguan Mountain, it will not be peaceful.

You must know that the original owner was a villager at the foot of Zhenwuguan Mountain. Wasn't he bloodbathed by demons and the whole village died miserably?

"Weapons do need to be used, but what kind of weapon is better for me to use?"

Jiang Shi touched his chin and started thinking.

"In my opinion, it is best to fight with a knife. Swordsmen are the most famous in the world!"

"No, it's best to fight with a sword, and a swordsman is strong. The famous inner disciple of our Zhenwu Temple, Wu Yuanshan, the "Meteor from the Sky", uses this sword."

"Not bad, the sword is good, let's play sword fighting!"

A group of rogues spoke one after another.

Jiang Shi suddenly showed disdain.

What sword? What knife?

I am born with divine power, how can anyone with natural divine power use this thing?

Even if I use a knife, it must be a Daguan Dao!

Don’t consider it if it’s less than 100 pounds!

"Okay, don't push me, take me to the city early tomorrow morning, and we'll talk about it after we get there!"

Jiang Shi waved his hand.

He was ready to think carefully about what weapon to use.

A group of rogues nodded.

Then they continued to eat,

After the meal was finished, everyone dispersed.

In the afternoon, Jiang Shi looked at the panel and thought again.

This time the reputation value did not continue to increase, it was still 20.

"Is it because they are not shocked enough, or is it because Liu Si and the others were shocked last time, and if they are shocked this time, they will not continue to provide reputation points?"

Jiang Shi frowned for a while, doubtful in his heart, and finally shook his head slightly and practiced the Dragon Snake Strength again.

The night passed quickly.

Early the next day.

Liu Si, Li San, Wang Wu and others gathered at the gate of Jiangshi again and waited.

After Jiang Shi had breakfast, he cleaned up his property and found that the original owner had been farming for three years and lived frugally. He had only accumulated five taels of silver until now.

It seemed like a lot, but he was not sure whether he could actually produce a decent weapon.

Jiang Shi sighed secretly, put away the money, and walked out.

"Boss, are you okay?"

Liu Si smiled.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Shi opened his mouth.

"Okay!"

A group of ruffians nodded and started on their way.

···

It is about sixty or seventy miles away from the outer gate of Zhenwu Temple to nearby Tieshi City.

It's not far, it's not close, but it's not peaceful at all along the way.

Along the way, you can see desolate villages, cracked land, and dead trees everywhere...

The bark and leaves of each big tree have long been stripped clean.

You can also see some blackened bones lying on the roadside at any time, exuding a strong putrid smell, attracting countless flies, making a buzzing sound.

Jiang Shi held his breath, and his face suddenly became more solemn than ever before.

It's one thing to know the background of this world, but it's another thing to actually see it.

From the time he traveled to the present, he has been staying at the outer gate of Zhenwu Temple and has never seen the outside world. It was only now that he walked out of the outer gate that he felt the desolation of this place.

Those stinky skeletons clearly belong to humans!

"Boss, there will be a lot of bandits along the way, and they often do business of robbing merchants. But don't be afraid. We are wearing the clothes of the outer disciples of Zhenwu Temple. Ordinary bandits don't dare to touch us at all.

So I took the initiative to avoid it.”

Liu Si patted his clothes and said.

"Yeah?"

Jiang Shi opened his mouth, looked forward, and said, "What are those large groups of people in front doing?"

"It seems that they are all refugees, refugees fleeing to Tieshi City."

Liu Si looked far away and said.

A few hundred meters away from them, the crowd was in chaos, and a team of hundreds of people appeared. All of them were in ragged clothes, with loose shawls, and their bodies were as skinny as possible.

Everyone's face has a strong sallow complexion, their cheeks are sunken, and they are unable to walk, as if they have been suffering from malnutrition all year round.

And their height is generally not high.

Basically, they are only about 1.6 meters tall, and their bodies are so swaying that they can be blown over by a gust of wind.

"Do you often see refugees here?"

Jiang Shi asked.

"Yes."

"Then why don't they go to Zhenwu Temple?"

"Hey, Zhenwu Temple doesn't accept everyone. We are all residents near Zhenwu Temple and have a close relationship with Zhenwu Temple, so Zhenwu Temple will temporarily accept us. But these refugees are different. They have nothing to do with Zhenwu Temple.

No, if he is a refugee and Zhenwu Guan takes him in, can Zhenwu Guan support him?"

Liu Si said disdainfully.

"Too."

Jiang Shi nodded

They did not walk with the group of refugees, but walked around Iron Stone City from another direction.

Even though it was a detour, what he saw along the way still greatly refreshed Jiang Shi's understanding.

The land is desolate and endless as far as the eye can see.

Along the way, not even a weed was seen.

Every once in a while, you can see corpses of people who have died of starvation, and groups of refugees, walking and walking, looking desolate.

"If the dynasty of this world does not perish, it will be said that there is no justice..."

Jiang Shi thought to himself.

···

Iron Stone City occupies a vast area, and the city gate is built piece by piece with thick green bricks. The entire city is like a giant beast crawling on the vast plain.

It is in sharp contrast to the desolation and desolation of this plain.

Three large fonts hang high above the city, exuding a sense of vicissitudes of time.

"steamed stuffed bun!"

“Hot soup, hot soup freshly made from the oven!”

"Eggs, pure free-range eggs!"

···

Waves of shouts came over and over again from the not-so-wide street in front of me.

The streets that are several meters wide are full of vendors, pedestrians, and people from all walks of life.

There are also a lot of beggars.

Waves of messy smells mixed together and kept coming to people's nostrils.
To be continued...
