Chapter 51 The Battle of the Fake Dao Map! (Please follow up!)
After not coming to Fangshi for a few days, when Yang Fang came out again, he obviously saw that Fangshi was much depressed.
There were still many people setting up street stalls here, but after so many days, even the number of street stalls has decreased a lot.
There are more strange faces on the street.
Some gathered in groups of three or four, looked coldly at the street.
Others are alone, with weapons on their backs, their eyes are indifferent, and they feel like they are thousands of miles away from others.
Yang Fang took a general look, secretly awe-inspiring, lowered his head, and rushed all the way to Mipu.
"The price of rice has risen so high?"
He showed surprise.
As soon as I asked, the price of rice rose again, nearly quadrupling.
"Yeah, the current market is more severe than ever before. In the past, when it was winter, at most it was difficult to travel on the commercial roads, but now it is more than difficult to travel. The commercial roads have long been blocked by bandits. There are several chambers of commerce. Being looted, if this continues, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy food."
The treasurer explained.
Although there is an exaggerated charm there, it still made Yang Fang realize the difficulty of the current form.
He bought two hundred catties of rice in one go, and spent nearly eight taels of silver, which made his heart bleed.
Eight taels of silver would still be two taels left when I bought a bottle of Yangqi Pill in the past!
However, the price of rice has risen to such an outrageous level, the price of Yangqi Pill is estimated to be even more expensive.
He pulled the cart and rushed directly to a shop in front of him.
The result was as he had imagined, and he learned the price of Yangqi Pill as soon as he asked.
A bottle of ten taels of silver!
This is an increase of two taels from the previous eight taels.
"The materials for refining the Qi Yang Pill are impossible to get through now. Someone outside the settlement deliberately blocked the road. Even the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce has difficulty getting the materials. It is only ten taels of silver now, and it will definitely be more expensive after a while!"
said the shopkeeper of the pharmacy.
Yang Fang had a toothache.
He immediately suspected that some merchants were hoarding!
There may even be a possibility that shops will join forces with each other and ask for prices indiscriminately.
But with the situation in front of him, what can he say?
"Give me four bottles!"
Yang Fang directly took out forty taels of silver and placed it on the counter.
The shopkeeper immediately took out four bottles of Qi Yang pills and handed them to Yang Fang.
Yang Fang put away the Yangqi Pill, and immediately pulled the cart and walked towards the butcher shop.
Not surprisingly, the price of meat is also rising.
Before the price increase, it was 70 Wen a catty, but now it has been raised to 500 Wen a catty.
Yang Fang bought twenty catties of pork for ten taels of silver.
At this point, his money bottomed out again.
"If this continues, many people are destined to starve to death this winter."
Yang Fang secretly thought.
No, many people may die before winter begins.
After all, who knows if those outsiders will kill blood sacrifices?
Living in this black iron colony now is like living on a powder barrel, which may be detonated at any time.
If he could leave, he would definitely choose to leave.
But the environment outside is extremely dangerous. There are ferocious beasts and evil spirits everywhere. You have to walk thousands of miles to meet the next settlement. It is not easy for one person to pass through.
The whole day passes quickly.
Until the sun goes down.
A group of workers finally dug out the hole Yang Fang needed.
There is a huge living room inside, covering an area of more than ten meters.
In addition, there are three rooms, a storage room, an escape passage, and an air vent.
Yang Fang moved all the rice and meat into the cave.
He threw some wooden planks down and made a simple wooden bed, and lived underground that night.
"Shouldn't you cause trouble now?"
Yang Fang murmured.
Suddenly, he remembered something, climbed out of the ground again, and walked towards another room.
From under the bed in this room, a thick pile of animal skins was quickly dug out.
Each animal skin is engraved with some strange silver characters.
It was a fake Dao map copied by him last night.
Yang Fang thought quickly in his mind, gritted his teeth, took out the mask from under the bed, put it on his face, raised his long sword, and quietly left over the wall.
His body was extremely fast, and he ran all the way to Dongfang.
Seeing no one in the middle of the night, he immediately took out a fake road map and threw it in a remote alley.
After throwing in this alley, I immediately ran to another alley to throw.
Just like that, without exception, the four major cities were all thrown by him.
After finishing all this, he immediately returned to the residence, turned over, and successfully returned to Wanchunpu, took off the mask, and got into the cave.
Yang Fang talked to himself.
But it is also a good thing to let the group of outsiders fight each other.
In this way, some people will save the attention of some people who come to the pharmacy, and the probability of being discovered is even lower. After all, they are all fighting for the Dao map. Who has the time to pay attention to them natives?
Yang Fang took out a qi nourishing pill, swallowed it, and immediately began to practice in the cave.
Unknowingly, several hours passed.
ah!
Suddenly, bursts of miserable screams sounded from outside, and Yang Fang, who was ten meters deep underground, could hear them clearly.
He was startled, stopped practicing, immediately pricked up his ears, and listened outside.
After that scream sounded, other screams came soon.
During this period, there were bursts of sound of weapons colliding, and bursts of vague shouts.
"Daotu has appeared, stop him!"
"Leave the Dao map, spare your life!"
"Dao Tu was taken away by [Quick Knife] Zhang Lan"
"Zhang Lan, don't run away, you think I won't recognize you if you cover your face!"
Shouts came and went.
It seems that his shop is not far away.
Yang was relieved to be secretly startled.
He threw away all the fake road maps in the four major squares.
Beifang was discovered so quickly.
But the shouting soon began to fade away.
Obviously, the people who fought are moving away quickly.
Yang Fang listened again for a while, making sure he couldn't hear any sound, then he was relieved and started to practice.
Just like that, one night's work quickly passed.
Living underground doesn't feel comfortable, it feels unspeakably stuffy.
But Yang Fang thought about it, but still didn't walk out of the burrow.
It was agreed to stay in the ground for a few months, so we must stick to it. How could we give up halfway.
What should I do if I am targeted again when I go out?
"By the way, did I lock the door of the pharmacy last night?"
Yang Fang suddenly remembered something and was startled.
He gritted his teeth, quickly climbed out of the burrow again, and rushed towards the front hall.
Sure enough, the front door was unlocked.
But fortunately, there was no theft from the pharmacy.
He was about to lock the door immediately, when suddenly his heart moved, he opened the door and quietly looked outside.
On the street outside the door, three or four corpses suddenly appeared. The ground was dripping with blood and filled with a stench.
The clothes on the corpse have been stripped long ago, and all the belongings on the body have disappeared.
"There was a battle here last night"
He thought to himself, locked the pharmacy, and hurried back to the crypt again.
Next, five consecutive days passed.
During five days, Yang Fang didn't take a single step except going to the toilet, and his own strength was improving rapidly.
The entire settlement fell into chaos.
People from all major forces fought back and forth, leaving corpses everywhere, and people died every day.
In fact, on the first day, some people discovered that these Dao maps were fake.
But the more this is the more crazy.
Because the false appears, it means that the real must be nearby.
This kind of fake was obviously thrown out to confuse people's attention, so the battle between the major forces not only did not stop, but intensified, not only fighting each other during the day, but also frequent murders at night.
At this moment, they all suspect that there is a real Dao map on the other side.
Even the disciples of the Sword Pagoda, Baiyue Tower, and Heishan Temple, the three major martial arts schools were not spared, and several of them were secretly killed.
Especially the female disciple of the sword tower, who died horribly, naked, and her body was hung on the flagpole, causing countless sensations.
The people in the sword tower turned pale with anger, wanting to chop the murderer into pieces.
Right at this moment, another piece of news reached the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce.
"Something went wrong, someone was fighting at Dongfang, and the real Dao Tu appeared."
A martial artist from the Wanfu Chamber of Commerce screamed in panic.
Hoo!
A burly male disciple of the sword tower with an epee on his back grabbed the martial artist's neck in a flash, lifted his body on the spot, squeezed his neck tightly, and said coldly, "You How do you know it's true?"
"Forgive me, they. They all say it's true, and I'm not sure."
The martial artist frightened and begged for mercy.
