"Thank you..." The woman took it with tears in her eyes. She didn't expect that it was someone from another land who saved the three of them, mother and daughter.
Tang Yue smiled and shook her head, "Just put it on now. From now on, when you see a monster, just ignore it and dodge. The talisman will be fine."
After instructing her not to place the talisman in a dark and damp place, Tang Yue released her mental power around her and eliminated most of the man-eating and aggressive monsters.
After talking to the woman for a few words, he turned and walked towards the road the woman pointed to. The woman stared at Tang Yue's receding back, and she quickly wiped the tears that were about to fall with her sleeves to prevent them from dripping onto the talisman paper.
"Mom, don't cry. When I grow up, I want to be as strong as the older sister just now and protect you." The little girl reached out to wipe away her mother's tears, her eyes revealing a determination.
The woman burst into laughter, reached out and rubbed her hair, "Okay." She agreed gently.
The little girl looked at Tang Yue's gradually disappearing back. One day she would become as strong as her to protect her family and villagers.
After Tang Yue quickly walked away from the woman's sight, she began to speed up and covered a long distance in a few leaps. Yue Lu seemed to be in even worse condition than she had imagined.
The lives of ordinary people are too dangerous. It's a blessing that they can survive in such a harsh environment.
She jumped a few more times, and in the places explored by her mental power, she dealt with all the man-eating and aggressive monsters.
Ordinary people have a hard time. Tang Yue flew far away with a few leaps. She cleaned up almost every place where residents lived. After all, the guilty ones were not these poor people, but Er Ren and the others.
Remembering what the woman said, she couldn't help but jump faster, and soon she reached a gravel road with a tractor-like vehicle in front of her.
This should be what the woman said. Tang Yue did not jump again. If someone saw her and aroused suspicion, it would easily alert the enemy. This place was too close to the border between Xinglu and Canglu.
Tang Yue quickly approached the house where the tractor was parked and found that the small bungalow was surrounded by circles of railings, some of which had been cracked. It looked safer than the woman's.
She looked around and saw that there were mostly plains nearby, with a small forest next to it. There were no harmful monsters in the forest, and most of them were vegetarians.
"Is anyone there? Is anyone home?" Tang Yue shouted inside, but the door was closed and she didn't know if anyone was home.
She looked at the clock in her hand. It was past two in the afternoon and everyone should have finished lunch. She was so hungry that she could only wait until she left the village to eat. There didn't seem to be any places to eat nearby.
At this moment, someone poked his head out of the door. "Who are you? What's the matter?"
A bearded uncle poked his head out from inside. Seeing that it was a little girl, he quickly let her in to prevent her from being eaten by the monster.
"Hurry, hurry, come in and talk." The uncle waved and quickly opened the door to let her in.
Tang Yue walked in without hesitation, "Do you have a car to the nearby town? A town where you can take a bus." She glanced around the uncle's yard, where he had planted some ornamental flowers and plants.
The uncle looked at Tang Yue and said, "Yes, yes, you want to go to town?" The way she was dressed made it clear that she was an outsider. Apart from the mages, no one else in Yuelu could afford such decent clothes.
Tang Yue nodded, "Uncle, do you have time to take me there now?" She didn't know how far it was. If it was far, it would not be safe for him to walk alone at night. She didn't know if it would delay his time if she gave him more money to stay in town for one night and come back early the next morning.
The uncle hesitated for a moment and looked inside to check the time. "It'll take more than two hours to get to town now." It was a bit risky to get home before dark...
Seeing that he was hesitant, Tang Yue said directly, "Uncle, if you have nothing to do, take me to town and stay there for one night. I will pay for dinner and accommodation, and I will give you double the car fare."
She was in a hurry to get to City C. After all, once she got to the town, she didn't know how many buses she would have to take to get to City C, so she wasted a lot of time.
The uncle didn't expect her to be so generous, and hurriedly said that she didn't need to give him so much money, "No need to give me so much money, just give me the amount of transportation fare." He could stay there for one night with accommodation and dinner. After all, he really didn't dare to walk at night. Not to mention that the Moon Land was very chaotic.
"I should pay double, uncle, just accept it." After all, it delayed him for quite a while.
The uncle had no choice but to agree and lowered the fare a bit. Tang Yue knew that the uncle had bargained down the price. He lived such a hard life but was not greedy for external wealth. He was very simple and honest.
But Tang Yue still decided to give him three times the price. He had to pay no less. It was not only hard-earned money, but also a risk to their lives.
"Girl, Yuelu is not safe recently. It's better not to go to those areas in the city center." If you get kidnapped, you won't be able to complain to anyone.
As the uncle spoke, he pushed a three-wheeled electric vehicle out of a small shed. The uncle liked this three-wheeled electric vehicle very much. "My electric vehicle is very useful. It can run for several hours on a single charge."
"It works very well and looks cool too." Tang Yue agreed. It was indeed very cool. The uncle probably took good care of the three-wheeled electric vehicle. Not only did he wipe it clean, he also painted it with a layer of paint, which looked very bright.
When the uncle heard Tang Yue's praise, he looked very proud and said, "Your speed is amazing."
Tang Yue smiled again and got on the back of the tricycle. The uncle drove the car out and closed the door tightly.
He glanced at the cracked railing, sighed, and got on the tricycle, "Ah... These days, there are more and more monsters." It is even more difficult for ordinary people like them to survive.
Tang Yue looked at the cracked railing without saying a word. The monsters nearby had been cleared out, but it was inevitable that some more monsters would break into this small village.
As the uncle started driving, the wind was whistling and it was almost impossible to hear any talking. Fortunately, Tang Yue stopped talking.
As soon as he moved his mouth, the wind rushed into his mouth. The uncle must be very experienced, as he drove without saying a word.
The cars were driving so fast that there was almost no one on the road. Occasionally, one or two people passed by, but they were almost running, not daring to stop for even half a second.
Tang Yue sighed as she watched. Judging from the situation, most of the ordinary people in Yuelu lived like this. Erren and the others spent all their energy on dealing with Xinglu and Canglu, but they didn't care about the lives of ordinary people in their own land.
Otherwise, they are cruel enough, and they will eventually perish if they do too much evil.
The strong wind whistled on her little face, making it difficult for her to open her eyes. After driving for two hours, Tang Yue felt that her face had become numb from the wind, and she touched her hair that was flying uncontrollably.
"We're here. There's a bus not far from this town." The uncle drove to the bus station for fear that Tang Yue wouldn't be able to find it.
Tang Yue looked towards the station with its dirt road. The whole town looked extremely old.
"I understand, uncle. You can stop here." Tang Yue gave him the money she had prepared.
The uncle looked at the huge amount of money and said, "Girl, you..." This is too much! He looked at Tang Yue in surprise.
Tang Yue ignored his surprise and stuffed the money into his hand. Then she stuffed ten talismans into his hand and said, "Stick these talismans wherever you go. Also put one on your door. Remember, don't get them wet so they remain effective."
The uncle was flattered and took the talisman. He had only seen this talisman on TV. "Okay, okay! Thank you so much!" Having this talisman is equivalent to having his life guaranteed.
Tang Yue waved at him and said, "Stay here for one night. Don't save this little money. If you meet a bad person, you will lose both your money and your life." This talisman can protect against beasts but not people. Fortunately, this is a three-wheeled tram and is inconspicuous, so no one is looking at it.
The uncle scratched the back of his head with a smile as if he had been exposed, "You can see it all." He had indeed been thinking that with the talisman paper he wouldn't be afraid to go back before dark, but after being reminded by the little girl, he gave up the idea.
Tang Yue smiled and said, "See you again if we're lucky." Then she turned and walked towards the old station.
The uncle was a little worried about her, a little girl, but he had no choice but to sigh and ride his tricycle to an inn to rent a small room for the night. The owner of the inn was a novice mage, so there was no need to worry about monsters or bad guys.
Tang Yue walked into the station. There were not many people there, just a few people waiting for the bus. They were dressed better than the women and uncles.
When I walked to the ticket office to buy my ticket, the aunt inside was almost falling asleep.
"Hello, how much is the ticket to City C?"
The ticket seller woke up drowsily and shook her head to try to wake herself up. "It's not going to City C. You have to go to City H first and then transfer to City C."
Tang Yue nodded. As expected, she had to change trains. "Please help me book a ticket to H City."
The ticket seller yawned as she waited for the old printer to print out the ticket. "Here you go." When she handed it to her, she looked her up and down with a look of regret.
"Do you really want to go to City C? People are being arrested everywhere in City C right now." The ticket seller looked around and saw that there was no one around before quietly advising her.
Although this place is remote and has many monsters, it is still much better than going to City C. After all, there are monsters everywhere.
Tang Yue handed the money into the window and said, "I will be more careful. Thanks for the reminder." At present, it seems that the ordinary people in Yuelu are still very enthusiastic.
Seeing that she couldn't be persuaded, the ticket seller shook her head helplessly. Such a pretty girl might be arrested, and those people were arresting people without any attack like crazy.
"The bus leaves at 5:30 and will take about five hours to get to H Town. You'd better eat something first." The ticket seller reminded Tang Yue.
Tang Yue didn't expect that it would take five hours to get to H City. She originally thought it would only take about two hours. It seems that she really needs to go to a nearby place to fill her stomach first.
The ticket seller saw that she seemed to have some concerns and thought she was afraid that it would be dangerous if she arrived too late.
"Don't worry, our boss is a beginner mage and is more than capable of dealing with monsters."
Tang Yue nodded and said with some confusion, "Boss?"
"Yes, our boss is driving." The ticket selling lady was not surprised.
Tang Yue: “…” Okay, she didn’t react just now.
After walking out of the station, she randomly found a noodle shop whose signature dish was wonton noodles. Tang Yue had never eaten wonton noodles before, so she sat down at the table in the noodle shop.
The boss was a middle-aged man wearing a clean towel. "What would you like to eat, little girl?"
Tang Yue didn't even look at the menu. "Please order me ten large portions of your signature wonton noodles." She ordered whatever size was available.
"Okay." He looked left and right curiously. There were no more than six people on the road, let alone ten.
Although the boss was puzzled, he moved very efficiently. Soon, two bowls of wonton noodles were taken out of the pot and immediately served to Tang Yue's table. He then hurried to make the other eight servings.
Tang Yue used the wind element to roll up the noodles, which immediately cooled halfway. The temperature was just right when she put it in her mouth. She was already extremely hungry and instantly finished two bowls of noodles.
Tang Yue asked the three beasts in the backpack to eat pills and not show their bodies.
When the boss brought the other three bowls to the table, he said, "Here..." The hand holding the noodles paused and looked at the two empty bowls in front of Tang Yue in surprise.
Tang Yue only had eyes for food. The boss looked at the empty bowl and then looked around. There were a few people walking around just now, but now there was no one on the road.
The boss wanted to ask but was too embarrassed to meddle, so he hurriedly brought three bowls of noodles to the table and turned around slowly to cook the noodles.
When he brought out the noodles, the other three bowls were empty.
Boss: “!???” What the hell is this!
"These...these bowls of noodles were full when I brought them here, weren't they?" the boss looked at the five clean bowls questioningly. Was he hallucinating? Was he bringing empty bowls to the customers' table?
Tang Yue replied nonchalantly, "It's full, I've finished eating." She couldn't wait to bring the noodles down, but the wind blew silently, taking away half of the temperature of the wonton noodles.
Boss: “!” She ate it all?
Before he could be too shocked, the scene before him made him almost unable to close his mouth. He saw the little girl in front of him finish a bowl of noodles very quickly.
Tang Yue ate three more bowls, and had two bowls left to last until the evening. The hunger panic caused by starvation in the end times, coupled with the use of her mental power, made her so hungry that she could swallow a cow, and her eyes were glowing green.
The boss was amazed. She had such a big appetite! He walked in and continued to cook two bowls of noodles.
Tang Yue felt alive again after she had eaten ten bowls of noodles. "Boss, please pay the bill." She placed the money on the table and pressed it with a bowl to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.
The boss was stunned to see her eating so fast that she finished all ten bowls of noodles.
After filling her stomach, she looked at the time. It was not yet five o'clock, so she decided to go back to the station and wait.
After waiting at the station for a while, the 5:20 train soon arrived. The ticket seller shouted to the waiting room, "5:20 train! Those going to H City at 5:20, get on the train!"
The ticket seller waved at Tang Yue, who had already stood up and walked in the direction she pointed.
Behind her were several ordinary people and two women with children, who walked towards the bus with uneasy and cautious expressions.
Tang Yue looked towards the waiting room. It was empty. There were several people following her, and they all seemed to be going to H City.
I got on the bus which still looked very old, but there was no car smell inside the bus. The driver was actually a young man in his twenties.
This surprised Tang Yue. A beginner wizard at such a young age should still have potential for development.
The young man's handsome face was a little cold, and he ignored Tang Yue's surprised look.
Tang Yue thought of Er Ren... She guessed that the young man came to work in a remote area because he was afraid of being used by Er Ren.
Not many people got on the bus. Tang Yue took the seat indicated on her ticket, pulled aside the washed-out curtains and looked out the window.
Tang Yue was carrying a sword on her back, and her posture did not look like that of an ordinary person. For some reason, a mother and daughter felt that this little girl gave them a sense of security, so they chose to sit in the seat in front of Tang Yue.
The young boss seemed to not care whether the passengers were seated according to their seats or not. He drove off as soon as everyone was seated and fastened their seat belts.
Another mother and son sat next to Tang Yue. In times of crisis, a mother's sixth sense is always more accurate.
Tang Yue gave people a feeling of being more at ease. The others were fine, perhaps because they were single and not so afraid of accidents.
The car drove slowly on the mountain road. The bus was quite stable and not very bumpy. The dusk when the sun set in the evening gave people a feeling of loneliness and helplessness.
The two mothers in the car hugged their children tightly, their eyes revealing worry and confusion about the future.
Tang Yue vaguely felt that something was wrong. From the woman with two children to the two mothers with children in the same car, where were their husbands?
Logically speaking, everyone knows how dangerous it is to travel by car on Moonland at night. It is impossible for him to let his wife, daughter and children take the risk alone, right?
