During the next hour and a half of driving, we didn't encounter any monsters blocking the road, and the car was still peaceful.
Outside the car, which was originally pitch black, dots of light gradually appeared. Tang Yue looked at the rows of houses and the sparse tall buildings.
This must be H City. It looks like there is some human presence here, but there is no one on the streets. Maybe it's because it's too late.
Finally, they were almost there. Her butt was sore from sitting so long. The car slowly pulled into a small station.
There was no one in the station and it was completely silent. If it weren't for the lights on in some residential buildings, it would have seemed like a deserted city.
"We've arrived at H City." The young boss reminded all the passengers in the car.
Tang Yue was the first to stand up. The other passengers did not relax their vigilance after arriving in H City. They all planned to find a hotel to stay in first.
The young boss looked at Tang Yue with his handsome face, hesitated for a moment, and then walked over. All the other passengers had already got off the bus.
Tang Yue originally wanted to get off the car, but the boss seemed to have something to ask her, and she also wanted to find someone to ask.
The two women got out of the car with their children, but did not walk far. Instead, they chose to wait for Tang Yue under the car, wanting to see if she also needed accommodation. It would be safer to stay with her.
"Are you from out of town?" The young boss could probably guess by looking at her attire.
Tang Yue did not deny it. "Yes, I am from Canglu."
The young boss did not doubt Tang Yue's words, "Cang Lu..." his tone was full of yearning, and he quickly came back to his senses.
"What's that sword behind you?" Her sword looked so powerful that it could kill the monster with just one strike.
Tang Yue glanced at the invisible sword disapprovingly, "It's a toy sword." Used to fight monsters.
Young boss: “…”Okay.
After seeing all the passengers get off the bus, Tang Yue asked, "How far is it from here to City C?" Just so she could find out more and catch the bus early tomorrow.
"It will take about four hours. Are you going to City C?" The young boss's handsome brows frowned. City C is not peaceful now.
"Yes, I want to go to City C. Is there a bus to City C here?" She remembered what the ticket seller said.
The young boss didn't seem to support her going to City C. He said hesitantly, "Yes, there is, but... City C has been arresting people quite a lot lately. You have to be careful if you go there."
She is beautiful and easily attracts people's attention, so she is more dangerous.
Tang Yue nodded. "As long as there's a car to City C, it's fine. I have something to ask you. Why do I see so many women with children alone? Where are their husbands?"
The young boss didn't expect her to ask this question. He closed the car door and then told her with confidence, "Yuelu will capture some people from all over Yuelu every once in a while..."
As for why they were taken away, I'm afraid only the person in charge of Yuelu knows. Few of the men who were taken away can return home.
"Sometimes they arrest women, sometimes they arrest men, but this time they arrest everyone, regardless of gender."
His words were filled with disappointment and despair towards Yuelu. His hometown had become a hell on earth, and even his hope of survival was fading bit by bit.
Tang Yue frowned as she listened, and she could imagine what these people were being captured for.
Both of them fell silent. "Thank you for telling me this."
Tang Yue could see that the people here were very cautious. The young boss in front of her was very bold to say these words to a outsider like her.
The young boss's ears turned red. "Speaking of thank you, I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn't dealt with the high-level monster, I'm afraid everyone in the car would have died."
Tang Yue smiled and said, "You can't drive the car unless you get rid of it."
The young boss was amazed by Tang Yue's smile and was a little stunned. He didn't come to his senses until Tang Yue greeted him and got out of the car.
Tang Yue had just gotten off the car when two women with their children looked at her eagerly. She seemed to have forgotten something and forgot to give him the talisman.
It can be seen that he must love this hometown so he stays here. Tang Yue got into the car again and saw him looking at her with some confusion.
"Here are ten talismans for you. Don't get them wet and they will be effective forever." This can save you a lot of trouble.
The young boss looked at the talisman in her hand and was shocked as soon as his eyes touched it. "This is a top-grade talisman!"
She took several at once! The young boss turned his gaze to Tang Yue in surprise and took the talisman from her hand blankly.
I looked at her stupidly as she got out of the car, unable to recover from the shock.
After Tang Yue got off the car, two women with their children seemed to be hesitant to speak, so Tang Yue walked over.
"What's wrong?" All the passengers had left, and only they were still there.
A woman asked Tang Yue in a somewhat embarrassed tone, "Miss, do you want to go home or stay here temporarily?"
The two children looked up at Tang Yue with admiration in their eyes.
Tang Yue looked around and saw only one relatively large hotel, which was relatively safe.
"I'm staying in that hotel." She pointed to the hotel with lights on not far away.
The two women's eyes immediately dimmed. They couldn't afford to stay in that hotel, so they decided to stay in the small hotel next to Tang Yue.
Seeing that they seemed to be very shy, Tang Yue sighed secretly and took out some talisman paper and stuffed it into each of them, and told them some precautions when using it.
The two women didn't expect Tang Yue to be so kind to them, two strangers, and they kept thanking her.
She also gave them such a precious talisman, and the two women felt embarrassed to disturb Tang Yue again.
After watching Tang Yue enter the hotel, the two women took their limited money and ran to a small hotel to book a room for the two of them to stay in.
"Six...six hundred!" The woman holding the little boy took a step back in shock at the price.
It was obvious that the hotel owner was taking the opportunity to rip them off. After all, it was so late and it was dangerous outside, so they had no choice but to stay no matter how much money they offered.
"Six hundred, not a cent less. I'm a beginner mage, so my safety is no problem. If you want to stay, stay. If not, just leave now." He was too lazy to talk to them.
The two women only had 600 yuan left in total, and they still had to pay for half a month's living expenses.
"Boss, can you give me less?" the woman asked him cautiously.
The hotel owner didn't even look at them and said, "Go away, go away." Don't get in his way.
It was impossible for the two women to spend all the remaining 300 yuan, otherwise they would have nothing to eat for the rest of the month.
The two distraught women had not yet left the hotel when their two children spoke out to comfort their mother, saying that they were not afraid and that it was no big deal to stay outside for a night.
The two women smiled bitterly and held their children tightly, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of their eyes.
The hotel owner continued to lie down and rest with his eyes closed, but at this moment a staff member from the big hotel next door came over with a smile.
"Ladies, the guest rooms are ready for you."
The two women: "?" Their faces were full of confusion.
"But...we didn't book a hotel..." she said, blushing. They couldn't afford to stay...
The staff member smiled and continued, "A lady has already paid and is waiting for you to check in."
The two women thought of Tang Yue... The little boy happily tugged at the woman's sleeve, "Mom, it's the sister from before."
The woman covered her mouth and choked with sobs in disbelief. No one could understand how touched and grateful she was when a kind-hearted person came to her aid when she was most helpless.
The staff knew that their lives were not easy, and they probably left H City to hide so that their children would not be targeted.
The two women and their child went to the hotel front desk to get their room cards, and the staff also gave them four buckets of instant noodles.
"This room card includes breakfast. You can go down to the buffet restaurant on the second floor for breakfast tomorrow." The staff's attitude was very gentle and there was always a smile on his face.
The two women kept expressing their gratitude, and waves of warmth surged in their hearts. It turned out that there really is warmth in this world.
Tang Yue had already opened her backpack in the guest room. The three beasts were all suffocating. "The air in Moon Land doesn't smell as good as the air in Star Land."
Moondramon really doesn't like Moonlu, but Little Whitetuan is still as carefree as ever.
The blood dragon was curious. The human world was not just Star Land. It thought there was only Star Land.
Tang Yue came out with them to chat and get some fresh air, answering them from time to time. Her stomach was rumbling and she was very hungry, but she had just looked around and found no restaurant was open.
So she took ten buckets of instant noodles to prepare for cooking. She originally wanted to take twenty buckets, but only fourteen were left, and she left four buckets for the women.
