Soon, Lu Yuan arrived at the south gate of the city.
Normally, gatekeepers only inspected those entering, not those leaving, so he didn’t encounter any problems and easily left the city.
The sun above was still scorching hot, and it was around one or two in the afternoon, the hottest part of the day.
But Lu Yuan could no longer care about that.
Being hot was far better than staying in the city and facing troubles.
“The Black Wolf Gang members were killed, and this gang that controls all the trade in Dayu County will not let it go.”
And the County government office too.
Under broad daylight, someone killing in the city streets, even if the Master of the Government Office is corrupt and incompetent, he absolutely won’t allow such a blatant challenge to the imperial authority to happen.
So, the joint search and elimination by the Black Wolf Gang and the officials will most likely happen soon.”
Lu Yuan tightened the luggage on his back, and his pace quickened on the flat official road.
The reason he did not want to stay in the city was to avoid these problems.
The swordsman in blue, named Ma Jiqing, might belong to some unknown sect, but his sword techniques were indeed sharp and extraordinary.
If the Black Wolf Gang members and the government officials were at the same level as those like Zhang Biao, then even if they had more people, they still might not be able to defeat the enemy.
Against these martial arts swordsmen who risk their lives, Lu Yuan did not think that the gang members and the greedy government officials would honestly pursue them to the death.
“The upper-class people have to consider their dignity and maintain their rule, so they will absolutely not let Ma Jiqing off. But those people at the bottom, why risk their lives to pursue such a dangerous person?”
Lu Yuan had seen many TV shows and novels about such matters in his previous life, so he had some shallow understanding of the dirty tricks played: “In the end, it is the common people who will suffer.”
“Sigh, this wicked feudal society.”
Lu Yuan sighed and looked back at the city gate, seemingly able to see the miserable scenes that were about to happen in the city.
“Hurry up and seal off the city gates immediately, no one is allowed to enter or leave,”
Just at that moment, a team of officials and a group of men dressed in black rushed out from the city and quickly sealed off the city gate.
In the mountains, he only had to deal with the cunning but not too smart wild beasts.
Could the wild beasts ever be more dangerous than humans?
“Once I return to the mountain, I’ll immediately begin closed-door cultivation. I won’t leave until I’ve maxed out both my Crude Archery and Crude Knife Technique skills, and have enough strength to protect myself,” Lu Yuan thought to himself.
This time, he had bought a whole ten pounds of salt, enough for a grown man to eat for two or three years.
He had originally thought it was just in case, but now it seemed like a wise move.
There are endless wild beasts in the mountains, as well as plenty of fruits and vegetables, all of which can sustain a person’s needs.
For a hunter, as long as they aren’t restrained by salt, they can continue to survive.
“Anyway, I have an infinite life span. Even if I stay in the mountains for a few years, it would just feel like the blink of an eye for a normal person.”
The conditions in the mountains might be harsh, requiring him to endure a few more years of hardship.
However, when compared to the alternative, suffering a little is much better than losing his life for no reason.”
…
Lu Yuan’s physical condition was still quite strong.
Walking along the official road for more than ten miles to the south while carrying more than thirty pounds of weight only took him a little over an hour.
Even after walking so far with such a heavy load, he only felt slightly tired but not unbearable.
The easy-to-walk official road soon reached its end.
At a small village, Lu Yuan looked at the rugged and steep mountain road that branched out from the official road and felt a sense of familiarity.
Reaching this point marked the area of Dayu Mountain.
Finally, he had returned to his own territory.
“But before I return to the mountain, I need to go to the village to buy some rice first.”
Lu Yuan tightened the luggage on his back and followed a fork in the road towards the village.
Although he had just said that there were wild beasts and fruits and vegetables in the mountains, people could not eat these things all the time.
When it was time to eat rice, he still had to eat rice; otherwise, he would be too hard on himself.
