Chapter 156 Arrival
After Longjiao City was disbanded, the deputy captain and his men moved forward slowly on the road. Luckily, the weather was great the next day.
They encountered wild monsters on the way, but they were able to deal with them, and they encountered them less frequently, sometimes less than once a day, and at most twice.
We kept walking like this and finally arrived at our destination, Xuantian City.
Seeing the crowds outside the city, the ordinary residents following the deputy captain were almost in tears. They hadn't felt such a peaceful day for a long time.
The group supported each other and slowly walked into Xuantian City. As soon as they entered, they saw the system prompting them to fill in basic information.
There are also two city regulations set by the city lord.
The deputy captain didn't object and said to the others, "Fill it out. We're just asking about your previous occupations."
Everyone else listened to him, filled out the information, and went to stay at the hotel.
While walking on the road, I saw people sweeping the ground. Although there hasn't been much snow in the past few days, the people shoveling snow are still working diligently, checking back and forth in the area they are responsible for.
"There are people shoveling snow here." A middle-aged woman sighed.
Before, no one in Longjiao City cared about the snow-covered roads. Later, when they escaped, they felt like they couldn't step on solid ground when walking on the streets.
"It means we made the right choice to come here."
Hearing this, the other ordinary residents nodded. Professional residents can have a place wherever they go, but ordinary residents have to rely on the city-state lifestyle.
A group of strangers came to the city-state, but the residents did not pay much attention to them. A week ago, people from other city-states moved here one after another.
In the past two weeks, more than ten city-states in Jinjiang District have been dissolved for various reasons, mainly because the conflicts within the city could not be resolved.
Originally, there were four or five city-states close to Xuantian City, but now there are only two left, and the others are all gone, so more people flocked into the city a week ago.
When she came here, Yao Bing'an had already received an email from the deputy captain. She happened to be going out of town, so she went to check it out when they were registering.
After watching the group finish registering and start going upstairs, the deputy captain's family had already gone to their rooms. He saw Yao Bing'an coming and immediately stepped forward.
The two men met and shook hands in a friendly manner. "Thank you so much for your help. Otherwise, we don't know if our journey here would have been smooth."
While on the road, the deputy captain also traded with Yao Bing'an and bought some potions.
Yao Bingan just shook his head. "It's okay. We've played together before. Now that we're here, we should get familiar with this place."
The deputy captain lowered his head. A grown man with a wife and children, he was on the verge of tears. "You don't know, while we were on the road, my child was cold and had a fever. He was confused. I was really scared at the time. Fortunately, the medicine I bought from you worked. He was fine after drinking it for a few hours."
Seeing that he was about to cry, Yao Bing'an just sighed, "I'm glad the child is okay. Xuantian City has a lot of healing potions, almost everyone has a bottle. However, the temperature in the city is suitable, and there is no food to gather outside. Except for us ordinary residents who don't go out, no one has fallen ill so far."
"It's good that no one is sick. My child got sick probably because we were traveling for too long. He suddenly had a fever. My wife was so worried that she almost forgot that we still have medicine for treating typhoid fever." The deputy captain began to tell her what his child looked like when he was sick.
At this time, he was glad that it was a game world, and any disease could be cured immediately with a bottle of medicine. Otherwise, there would be no hospital here and they would be worried to death.
Children are the apple of their parents' eyes. Yao Bing'an understood his feelings. "Alright, you're finally here. A city-state near Xuantian City disbanded a while ago, and many people have flocked here. The city has been quite lively recently. Once you're settled in, go find out more about it. Consider whether to form your own team or join someone else's."
Yao Bing'an had no plan to let the deputy captain follow him. When a person is in a place, the most important thing is to rely on himself to establish roots.
The deputy captain wiped his face and nodded, "Okay, I'll go out and take a look when the time comes. I've been here before."
Yao Bing'an reminded him, "This is already a third-level city-state. You should go check out the new shops that have opened. They're all pretty good, especially the training rooms. You can go there to train yourself without leaving the city."
The deputy captain didn't expect Xuantian City to upgrade so quickly. The last time he came here, it was still a level two city-state, but now it is already level three. He heard that there are not many level three city-states in Jinghe District, just a few scattered around.
"Thank you very much. Once I'm settled, I'll treat you to a good meal."
Yao Bingan didn't refuse. After all, it wouldn't hurt to have more friends in the city. "Okay, I'm going to leave the city with the other teammates. You can go do your thing."
The deputy captain went to his room, where his wife and parents were already decorating it. Because the room in the hostel was too small, they chose two adjacent rooms.
"How is it? Have you thanked City Lord Yao properly?" The deputy captain's mother still couldn't change her way of calling Yao Bing'an City Lord.
"Well, I have to go out and get busy now. I promised to treat her to a meal."
The deputy captain's children were playing in the room. After two weeks of traveling, the children were very happy to be able to settle down.
"I'll take the kids out for a look. Let's go to a restaurant in the city for dinner today."
In the past, when I was on the road, I ate instant food. Although it was not cold, it was still not as good as freshly cooked hot food.
After Yao Bing'an separated from the deputy captain, he gathered with his teammates and left the city.
Li Aoting saw her and asked, "Are they okay?"
It is not as easy to travel from Jinghe District to Jinjiang District this season as in other seasons.
Yao Bing'an nodded. "It's nothing. The deputy captain's child contracted typhoid fever on the road. He recovered in a few hours after taking medicine."
Li Aoting heard that no one had any accidents on the road, so she asked the others, "I didn't expect that someone would actually get sick. We've been out there hunting for a long time and haven't gotten sick before."
Yao Bing'an quickly fanned the air in front of her, "Don't say that. Don't you know you can't set a flag? But we should be fine. Our physical condition is better than that of ordinary residents."
For example, when the deputy captain and his crew were on their way, his child fell ill, and the others were a little listless.
Li Aoting smiled and said, "Okay, I get it. There have been a lot of professional players coming to the city recently, so we have to expand the area we clear the jungle."
Nearly half of the new residents who have recently flocked to Xuantian City are professional players. They did not expect that this place has such a high status in the minds of other professional players.
"Of course. The equipment and items here are so cheap. Instead of coming here to buy things, we might as well take this opportunity to settle down here. After all, anyone who knows a little bit should know that the number of people that can settle in a city-state is limited. Otherwise, why would we come here?"
In addition to paying attention to the rewards for killing wild monsters, professional players also want their own equipment and props, which naturally want to be of high quality and not too expensive.
Li Aoting: "So I recently bought some extra things to stock up, in case there are too many people and the shops in the city don't have enough to sell."
