I Have A City In An Alternate World - Chapter 969
969 The strange village (1)
With the arrival of the Empire’s special envoy, the atmosphere in Snow City immediately became tense.
Teams of armed brawny men could be seen everywhere on the streets. They hurried out of the city gates and headed to the various investigations in the snow-covered territory.
The land area of the snow Hill was not small, and the mountains were high and the forest was dense. It was not easy to find a group of people hiding there.
!!
In addition to sending out search personnel, balguv also issued an order to all the villages and towns in the area under his control. Once an unidentified person was found, they must immediately report it, and if anyone sheltered them, they would be severely punished.
For a moment, everyone was in a state of panic, and it was as if dark clouds had filled the sky above Snow City.
The hidden forces in the city, big and small, also smelled something unusual from this tense atmosphere. One by one, they jumped up and down, trying to find an opportunity to make a profit.
War was a disaster for ordinary people, but for some special people, it was an opportunity to make a fortune.
If someone with a big plan succeeded, it was not impossible for them to be conferred the title of Marquis!
There was never a lack of people who had such thoughts.
Just as they were trying to figure out the cause of the incident and formulate corresponding countermeasures, a group of soldiers were also moving along the rugged road in the direction of hewang village.
There were less than twenty soldiers in this group. They were wearing worn-out leather armors and had a dispirited look on their faces. They were hurrying on with their heads down under the lead of a cultivator.
They had been traveling for three days since they set off from Snow City. At this moment, all of them looked exhausted.
In times of turmoil, the defense of the territory could not be taken lightly, so after careful consideration, balguv decided to send 1000 soldiers to the various towns and villages in the territory to guard against any accidents.
After arriving at the various villages and towns, the local villagers must be responsible for supplying daily consumption, receive training, and fight together in the event of battle.
Although bargov wanted to send more men, the defense of Snow City could not be relaxed. At the same time, he had to keep a sufficient number of soldiers to prevent any accidents, so his troops were very tight.
Moreover, the soldiers that were sent out were at most a ragtag Army with limited combat power. Their greatest use was probably to send a timely warning to Snow City when danger came!
These soldiers were all veterans. Although their combat power was not strong, they had a lot of tricks up their sleeves. They had guessed their role, so they were all listless and had no fighting spirit.
It was definitely boring and depressing to be stationed in a remote village far away from the bustling Snow City.
However, since the order had been given, they didn’t dare to dawdle. Even though their legs were weak, they couldn’t stop to rest. They could only continue to move forward under the urging of the cultivator leader.
If he didn’t have any complaints in his heart, that would be absolutely nonsense!
The warrior cursed the cultivator in his heart, but he didn’t dare to slow down his pace. Before he knew it, hewang village was already in front of him.
A group of wooden houses appeared. They were surrounded by towering ancient trees, and smoke was rising from the kitchen.
A group of children stood at the entrance of the village, curiously looking at the group of soldiers. When they got close, they immediately ran into the village.
The exhausted soldiers couldn’t help but cheer and Quicken their pace. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the village entrance.
he had long heard that river view village wasn’t small and that there were shops like taverns in it, so there was no shortage of places to drink.
The past few days of travel had been exhausting. If he could drink a large glass of ale later, it would definitely be an indescribable enjoyment!
With a trace of desire in their hearts, the Warriors walked into the village and kept looking around.
These ruffian soldiers often used their status to do things like snatching chickens, ducks, and wine. At this moment, their eyes were fixed on the fat chickens foraging in the grass, and they couldn’t help drooling.
However, just as these soldiers were thinking about the roast chicken, the cultivator leading the team frowned and kept looking around.
Ever since he had entered River View Village, he had felt that something was wrong. The deserted streets and the expressionless villagers made him feel like there were thorns on his back.
By right, the villagers should be busy at this time of the day, but why was it so quiet?
“Where is your village chief? I have something to see him about.”
The cultivators leading the team did not need to reveal their identity, because the standard leather armor they wore was the best proof of identity. In a place like the snow-covered territory, only soldiers would dress like this.
The villager who was stopped looked up at the leader and raised his eyebrows. He replied impatiently, ” the village chief isn’t home. Tell me what you want to say!
The leading cultivator was furious. This villager was so rude that he had to teach him a lesson.
At the same time, it was also to show these villagers that he was intimidating them, so that they would not dare to deal with the matter when they were providing supplies.
At this thought, the leading cultivator suddenly whipped the villager’s face.
If this leather whip were to hit the face, the skin would definitely split open. If it touched the eyes, the eyeballs would definitely explode!
It was obvious that the leading cultivator didn’t treat the villagers as human beings and had dealt them such a heavy blow as a mere punishment.
The soldiers were watching with a smile, imagining the villager rolling on the ground after being whipped. It was obvious that they had experienced this more than once.
However, just as the whip was about to land on the villager’s face, he nimbly dodged to the side. However, it seemed that his legs were not flexible enough, causing the whip to hit his shoulder.
The horsewhip easily tore the villager’s coarse clothes apart, but what was revealed was not his skinny body, but his armor that shone with a dark light.
When the leading cultivator saw this scene, he was surprised. Just as he was about to turn around and draw his sword, he saw the villager sneer and pull out a short sword shining with cold light from under his robe.
At the same time, the villagers who were watching the show picked up all kinds of items around them and quickly approached the soldiers.
“Are you guys trying to rebel?”
All the soldiers raised their weapons nervously. The leader of the cultivators shouted with a gloomy face.
These murderous people in front of him were not ordinary villagers at all!
The leading cultivator finally realized what was wrong. The villagers ‘eyes were too calm, without the fear and respect that ordinary villagers had when they saw them.
“Could it be that Qianqian?”
A terrifying thought suddenly flashed through the leader’s mind. At the same time, a trace of fear appeared on his face. Without any hesitation, he reached into his clothes and took out a scroll-like item.
Just as he was about to tear it open, the crippled villager suddenly rushed up and grabbed the magic scroll at a speed that shocked the leading cultivator.
“You want to call the police? hehe, dream on!”
The villager sneered and punched the leader of the cultivators to the ground. Then, he took the leader’s whip and whipped him.
The villager was still cursing under the crisp sound of the whip.
damn b * stard, do you still want to slap your Grandpa Downey as you please like before? you’re tired of living!
The leading cultivator kept dodging and trying to fight back, but every time he did, Donnie would hit him with the electric baton and make him Twitch.
Tang Zhen only fiercely spat out a mouthful of saliva after continuously whipping them dozens of times. He turned his head and looked at the soldiers who had been beaten until their heads were bleeding. They were tied up with hemp ropes and thrown to the side.
send them to the temple. The city Lord is in need of hard labor to move stones!
Donnie looked at the soldiers who were all scared and sneered.
