Chapter 631 Life is not easy
There was such a big commotion at the city gate that the people and tourists in the city all came to watch the fun.
It’s just that the lively time is too short. It stops abruptly when people are having a great time, which is really disappointing.
Those who have been in Yi City for a long time were the most surprised and shocked, as if they had just truly understood the four major slave farms for the first time and found them to be so incompetent.
The scene was so grand and fierce, but in the end they couldn't even hold out for one round. The four main masters even used Yicheng's trump card, but they still couldn't stop the enemy and had to watch him leave.
The people who left were not even hurt.
Just like what the old man with messy hair shouted, it was really hilarious.
The noise at the city gate died down, and the people watching in the dark quietly retreated.
The waiter at the inn followed the shopkeeper, sighing softly, "Shopkeeper, those guys are too powerful! No wonder everyone from the four fields had to avoid them at first... Shuangdiyi's timing was perfect this time, and he got really lucky."
"He escaped successfully, and the people in the capital are going to panic." Even when the shopkeeper was walking on the road, he habitually folded his hands in front of him and clasped them together. His expression could not be seen clearly in the dark.
"That's not necessarily true. The Shuangdi clan fell into decline over a decade ago, with many of their former followers dead or scattered. Shuangdi was thrown into the slave fighting arena for seven years before he managed to escape. Given his current situation, it won't be easy to restore the Shuangdi clan to its former glory. The Khan will definitely wipe out the entire clan this time."
"Why are you talking so much? You've made such a clear analysis. Are you really capable?"
"Yeah, we're already back at the store, hahaha. Now, let me get back to work! Boss, you've been tired all day, take a good rest! I'll be watching over the store, and I'll be responsible for closing it down when we get back!"
The shopkeeper glanced at the waiter quietly and went back to the backyard.
The backyard was quiet. A carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew out from the darkness. It circled in the air and flew away into the distance, soon disappearing into the night.
The shopkeeper stood in the yard, looking up at the moonlight.
The wind and snow stopped quietly at some point, and a half moon hung in the dark blue night sky, as soft as water.
He raised his lips in a faint smile and let out a long sigh.
The young master successfully escaped from the city.
It was worth it that he had been lurking here for many years.
It was worth it that he had given valuable gifts to his colleagues in the city a few days ago and explained the pros and cons to them, allowing the six people who had "no place to stay" to move into the small inn.
After his mind calmed down again, the shopkeeper returned to the front hall from the backyard and closed the shop door himself.
The waiter, still diligently wiping the tables and chairs with a wooden bucket and rag, was puzzled when he saw this and said, "Boss, I'll take care of these things. You can go and take a rest!"
"No need to bother." After closing the shop, the shopkeeper came forward, took the rag from the waiter's hand and threw it aside, patting him on the shoulder. "This little inn is closed. I will leave at dawn. If you want to stay, find another place. If you don't want to stay, you can come with me."
"Where are you going, boss?"
"Open an inn in the royal capital."
"Then I'll follow the shopkeeper and be your waiter!"
The shopkeeper studied him for a moment and chuckled, "Quite clever."
The waiter grinned foolishly.
How can you not be smart? This Yicheng is not a easy place to live.
Shuangdiyi escaped right after the shopkeeper left. He must have done something and was afraid that the people from the four major places would come looking for him to settle the score after they woke up.
He can't leave even if he doesn't want to.
Since the people from the four major places couldn't catch the shopkeeper, it was not impossible for them to take their anger out on him, a waiter.
For the sake of your life, you must escape while the chaos is going on.
Life is not easy.
…
On the other side, on the main road outside Yicheng, six people were walking slowly in the snow, talking and laughing.
The Yi city behind me was getting farther and farther away, and there were people and corpses standing inside and outside the city walls.
In the night sky, warning flares were still being launched one after another, and the sharp sounds could be heard far away in the darkness.
"The owner of the South Field is really a wonderful man. His men really didn't stop us. That guy must be worshipping a different master from the one who runs the slave fighting field." Su Wu fought a battle with someone on his back and walked all the way, his steps still steady and relaxed.
"The four slave farms in Yicheng are staffed by the Khan's men, as well as those of the royal capital's nobles. Both sides have stationed forces within the city to maintain a check and balance." Shuangdiyi's voice was as hoarse as a broken gong, but his eyes shone brightly. "The one who feared my escape the most was Chile. Jinbo secretly let us pass. His master must be a noble from the royal capital."
"No matter if it's the Xiongnu or the Central Plains countries, the royal family is always so restless. All everyone thinks about is how to fight for power, as if they will suffer a great loss if they don't fight for it." Little Wheat Ear curled her lips and said so, but she actually knew in her heart that in a place like the royal family, sometimes you don't want to fight, but you have to.
It's a vicious circle that keeps repeating itself over and over again.
She took two quick steps and squeezed between the two people walking in front. She pushed Bai Yu aside and hugged her sister's arm coquettishly, "Sister, it's a good thing you are not from the royal family. The world is so big, and we have traveled to so many places, but I still think Tubei Village is the best."
"Yeah." Tian Bao smiled and looked at the endless night ahead. "After this trip, we will go back to Tubei Village and won't come out again."
"good!"
Bai Yu was pushed aside and pretended to be helpless, "Su Wu, take care of your wife. She is so tactless. She always sticks to my wife and takes my place."
Su Wu, "I can't control it, I'll just wish you the best, hahahaha!"
He smiled, causing the person on his back to cough lightly.
Bai Xiaofeng reached out and grabbed the old man who was walking in a serpentine manner, "How long will it take for his injury to heal?"
"No matter how good the old man's medical skills are, he can't make someone injured today jump back into shape tomorrow. Recovery definitely takes time, not to mention that his injuries are not ordinary. Broken Blade has fought for decades, and he doesn't have as many hidden ailments as he does." The old man didn't care. After all, he wasn't the one carrying the person. "If he uses good medicine, this kid should be able to walk on his own in a few days."
"We are going to the royal capital this time. Boy, what are your plans next?" Bai Xiaofeng turned to ask Shuang Diyi.
Shuangdiyi's expression calmed down, and he looked up to meet the man's gaze. "Sir, everyone, rest assured. I know your purpose and will not hinder you. Two miles ahead, there's an old thatched hut on the side of the road. Someone will meet me there. Once you reach the royal city, someone will help you with your business."
"Just take care of yourself." After making sure that the other party would not drag him down, Bai Xiaofeng stopped asking questions.
He doesn't care about what others do, he only cares about the people he cares about.
And there are only a few people he cares about, and they can be counted on one hand.
"Godfather, this is the farthest you've ever walked in your life, right? I'll buy you a carriage when we get to the next town." The boy in front teased loudly.
"Buy it for me? If you have the guts, don't get in the car." Bai Xiaofeng curled his lips, and kicked the snow foam with his toes towards the young man's back, causing the young man to laugh.
