As he gradually approached Babei Town, a towering city wall appeared in front of him. Yang Yuyao looked at the city wall and the guarded city gate and felt a little surprised. In this world, only cities are basically surrounded by city walls, while these towns are Only an archway will be set up so that visitors can know where they are. But Babei Town is so unusual. Although it is called a town, it has built a city wall. In such a hierarchical country, why does it dare to do this?

"Xiao Yao thinks it's incredible that Babei Town has a city wall?" He Qianqing, who noticed Yang Yuyao's expression, asked. Tu Shan, who had been driving the carriage for a long time, was allowed to enter the carriage to rest. He Qianqing was driving now, but Yang Yuyao was also sitting in the carriage. Looking at the surrounding scenery from the side. But currently, Yang Yuyao's attention was completely attracted by the high city wall.

"Yes. I thought that city walls can only be built at the city level." Yang Yuyao nodded.

"You are not wrong. Babei Town actually belongs to the city in terms of size and registered level. After all, it has such a good geographical environment and it once developed quite prosperously." He Qianqing explained, "It's just that it is said that there was an expert After calculation, this place can enjoy the specifications of a city, but it must not be called a city, otherwise it will threaten the royal power of Wei Wu State. Therefore, it is actually a city, but it is called a town."

"I see." After listening to He Qianqing's explanation, Yang Yuyao understood. This kind of fortune-telling and divination seemed very mysterious to him, but in a world where monks are everywhere, the accuracy of this skill is terrifying. , since there are experts who have calculated it, it is natural that the monarch of Wei Wu State cannot not take it to heart. "Huh? There are a lot of people outside the city."

"Those should be people who escaped from the land that was transferred to the Sixi Kingdom." He Qianqing said, "Xiao Yao, when we go in later, don't speak no matter what those people say."

"Huh? Okay." Yang Yuyao immediately figured out that He Qianqing was reminding him not to get involved in the affairs of those who entered Babei Town and outside the city wall.

"Fellow officers and soldiers, please let me in! I finally got here and I haven't eaten for several days!"

"Masters, please take pity on us and let us in!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Mom, I'm so cold and hungry!"

"No, no, the city lord has an order not to allow deserters to come in!"

Outside the city wall of Babei Town, people were shouting, pleading, and children crying. Being about to approach a place with so many people made Yang Yuyao's heart tense, and his face turned slightly pale with panic. Soon he gave up and hid back in the carriage. He Qianqing smiled, this was actually a good thing. If Yang Yuyao becomes soft-hearted and wants to help the refugees outside the city wall, things will become quite troublesome.

Even if the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate reluctantly allow these people to enter because they are monks, no matter how wealthy Babei Town is, there may not be enough food to help these refugees. Judging from the current situation of Babei Daze, Today's Babei Town is not going very well either. If they help let the refugees in, those who pay for their soft-heartedness will become the city lord here and all the residents in the city. Even if they exchange gold and silver spiritual stones for food with these people, in the case of food shortage, inedible money is far less important than food. If there is sufficient surplus food, the city lord of Babei Town will not make this decision.

"Hey!" He Qianqing asked Red Comet to stop the carriage. These people who had fled back blocked the road into the city gate, making it impossible for the carriage to move forward. Just as He Qianqing was thinking about whether to give up entering the city and find another place to meet his subordinates from Ningcheng, the soldiers patrolling on the city wall noticed him and the carriage, and quickly sent someone to notify the guarding soldiers. Under the forcible expulsion of these soldiers, a road was finally cleared in front, allowing He Qianqing to drive his carriage slowly to the city gate. The soldiers guarding the city nervously stared at the people who wanted to enter the city, guarding against them rushing in desperately. The heavy city gate slowly opened, and amid the respectful welcomes of these officers and soldiers, He Qianqing drove his carriage into Babei Town.

The carriage had just driven completely through the gate, and the noise outside the gate escalated further. People who wanted to rush into the city gate were stopped by officers and soldiers with long guns. The city gate that was only halfway open for He Qianqing to drive the carriage in quickly closed, stirring up thick smoke and dust. . These poor people looked desperately at the city gate that was closed again, their hope of life was cut off, and they all sobbed in pain.

After entering the city gate, He Qianqing only drove the carriage for a short distance before stopping. Then he sighed softly and looked at Yang Yuyao, who had opened the felt curtain after entering the city but kept looking towards the city gate. .

"Xiao Yao, if you really can't bear it, then just do it." He Qianqing said, "But you have to know that we can't help everyone."

"I understand." Yang Yuyao replied. Even a monk, even at the stage of transcending tribulation, cannot conjure food out of thin air. "I was just thinking that since they have come here, those people must fight with the defenders. Are the officers and soldiers in need? If they are just anxious for food, it does not necessarily mean food."

"Huh? Xiaoyao, do you mean Babei Daze?" He Qianqing seemed to understand what Yang Yuyao meant. Daze, which used to be rich in water and grass, had abundant food resources even under water in winter. Although the area has shrunk significantly now, because of this, the fish in the lake will be forced to be more concentrated. If we could get those fish, it would be enough to fill the bellies of the refugees outside the city.

"Well, yes, but we have to confirm it first." Yang Yuyao nodded. In his memory of the original world, winter fishing in the north was a major event worthy of being celebrated on the news. There is such a building outside Babei Town. Daze, I think there will be no shortage of fish resources. "Although there may be some people who don't eat fish...but if you're still picky when you're starving to death, then there's no need to help."

"If there are such people, don't ignore them. They will starve to death on their own. Xiaoyao, what do you want to do specifically? I'll go with you." He Qianqing said, the fish in Daze can save the lives of those people, but there may be some People may be ungrateful when they learn that food is not given directly to their hands and can be eaten, so He Qianqing naturally accompanied Yang Yuyao to protect him. He Qianqing does not object to Yang Yuyao's kindness, but he has seen too much. Disasters will expose people's nature, including selfishness, greed and cruelty. No matter how much you do, there will always be people who feel that you have not done enough. Well, why don't you favor him and feel comfortable serving him? And He Qianqing doesn't want Yang Yuyao to be harmed because of this.

"Let's go take a look on the ice first." Yang Yuyao thought for a while and replied. He had also seen scenes on TV of refugees snatching relief supplies and even beating staff, so he knew that this was indeed not easy to do. But if he could help but chose not to, he really couldn't bear it.

Perhaps because he had more contact with people in the garrison in his original world, Yang Yuyao was also influenced by them unknowingly. Even in this world, although according to the place where this body was born, he should probably be from the Xia Kingdom, but in the countries he has traveled to so far, from the Xia Kingdom to the Wei Wu Kingdom, the people's appearance is not much different, and the customs and habits are also similar. , so Yang Yuyao always had the illusion that he was actually walking in the same country. No matter which country the people are from, they are all his compatriots. Of course, speaking magnified, no matter which country they are, they are indeed the same human race.

The real reason why Yang Yuyao was hesitant and entangled was that he was worried about whether he would cause trouble to He Qianqing if he messed up. After all, everything he did in Tongling Town can be inferred to be He Qianqing's doing. Although it is impossible for people to make no mistakes, he is particularly afraid of making mistakes. So going to Babei Daze first is also a buffer. If there are not enough resources, then it will be natural for this plan to be terminated.

"Okay, let's go then." He Qianqing left the carriage to Tu Shan to take care of him, and left the city with Yang Yuyao, arriving on the ice of Babei Daze. Although they have stepped on the ice, they are very close to Babei Town. If they look up, they can see the towering city walls of Babei Town.

Yang Yuyao did not use his spiritual sense to detect whether there were fish schools under the ice. After all, if he was not an experienced player, there would be no way to determine the location of the fish schools. Yang Yuyao directly followed the method he remembered from the video, opened a circular hole in the ice, and took out an ice core nearly thirty centimeters thick. When Yang Yuyao used his spiritual power to suspend the taken out ice in mid-air, he remembered that he could just dig a hole. This method was for collecting samples, but he got confused. Fortunately, the hole he opened was big enough, and after a while, he saw a fish swimming over.

"You can indeed fish here..." Before He Qianqing could finish his words, the situation changed drastically. Countless fish rushed to swim to the entrance of the hole, squeezing hard and smashing their big mouths. It was still so cold. The water surface seemed to be boiling, and a silver carp more than one meter long jumped directly out of the water and onto the ice.

He Qianqing looked at the scene in front of him in shock. Although he had lived for more than two hundred years, he rarely stayed in this far north country for a long time. What's more, since I started eating grains early, eating is no longer necessary and I no longer pay attention to how to obtain food in nature. Although I have heard in the past that when the ice is cut in winter, fish come out in spurts. But I was still shocked when I saw it with my own eyes.

He Qianqing looked at Yang Yuyao and found that all the fish that jumped out of the water were picked up by Yang Yuyao with his spiritual power. Yang Yuyao, who was obviously happy and his eyes were shining, even whispered, "Thank you for the gift of nature." After paying attention, After catching He Qianqing's gaze, Yang Yuyao stuffed the ice core he took out back into the hole, but had no intention of putting the fish back.

"When you return to Babei Town, find a restaurant to cook these fish for you. First, go to the refugees outside the city?" He Qianqing said with some humor. Of course, he knew that his disciple always liked to eat fish, including fish. All kinds of aquatic products, just opening a hole in the ice to get these fat and big fish, Yang Yuyao is obviously a little greedy.

"Well, okay." Yang Yuyao quickly put a few fish into the space ring, then took out the mirage and turned himself into Gu Yuan's ordinary face. Then he looked at He Qianqing, thinking about what role He Qianqing should play in his plan.

"Xiao Yao, just go ahead and do it when you think about it. I will be by your side." He Qianqing cast the Selfless Technique on himself, leaving Yang Yuyao alone to detect his existence. He hugged Yang Yuyao, He patted his shoulder lightly. "There is no need to be afraid of making mistakes, and there is no need to worry that it may cause trouble for my teacher. Because what you want to do is the right thing. We monks are the strong ones in this world, and there is nothing wrong with protecting the weak. When we enter the world of mortals, Only then can we find the true path.”

"Master..." Although he knew that He Qianqing was encouraging him, Yang Yuyao inexplicably heard He Qianqing's entanglement. He thought for a moment, took He Qianqing's hand, and decided to return to the gate of Babei Town first. It only took a short time for them to get off the carriage and go to the ice of Babei Daze to confirm whether there were any fish in the reduced area of ​​Daze. When Yang Yuyao arrived outside the gate of Babei Town, he was still crying. From time to time, I also saw people slowly leaving with disheartened hearts and unsteady steps.

Hiding in the carriage before, Yang Yuyao only heard their voices. Now he was about to face these people directly. Yang Yuyao was so nervous that his throat was a little tight, but when he remembered that what he was using now was not the original one, He Qianqing also accompanied him. After being around, he relaxed a little. He let himself float above the gate to the city, looking down at the people standing on the ground with a condescending attitude.

The appearance of a monk in such an attitude immediately attracted the attention of the fleeing people and the officers and soldiers guarding the city. Even though this place is under the jurisdiction of the Lanling Sect, the relationship between Babei Town and the Lanling Sect is similar to Regarding the relationship between Lin Tiancheng and Zhengren Sect, Babei Town is not directly managed by the Lanling Sect, but Babei Town pays a large fee every year in exchange for the Lanling Sect's protection.

There are not even monks from the Lanling Sect stationed in Babei Town for a long time, so even for the officers and soldiers in Babei Town, every monk who comes here is a being that cannot be easily offended. Therefore, they also stared nervously at Yang Yuyao floating in mid-air, wondering what his plan was.

"Do you want to enter Babei Town to get enough food or do you want to settle down here?" Yang Yuyao asked with a full aura, although he still suppressed his cultivation to It was the foundation building stage, but for these mortals present, the sense of oppression was enough. "If you want food to satisfy your hunger, I have a method. If you want to know this method, you can come with me."

After Yang Yuyao finished speaking, these eyes that were originally covered by haze lit up again. Some people who were far away began to gather towards Yang Yuyao, fearing that they would be missed.

"This method focuses on human effort. If you are no longer able to work, there is no need to follow." After Yang Yuyao finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and turned around and flew forward without waiting for these people to raise objections. The initial appearance was enough of a deterrent. The people who fled here were stunned and then tried to follow them. However, there were also some who hesitated and finally chose to stay. But these people left behind are no longer the ones Yang Yuyao wants to help.

The long hours of hunger and trekking made these mortals who were trying to keep up with Yang Yuyao weak and exhausted. Although they were slow, they were really trying to keep up. Even if they didn't look back, Yang Yuyao could feel their desire for life. . He sent a message to ask He Qianqing, who was accompanying him, if he should give them a little help.

"Yes, letting them feel your power will just make them respect you more. Even if some of them find that the results are not as they expected, they will not dare to make mistakes." He Qianqing agreed, so these efforts kept up. Yang Yuyao's people suddenly felt their footsteps lighten, and a breeze seemed to surround them, which saved them a lot of energy.

"It's the Immortal Master, the divine power of the Immortal Master!" these people said excitedly. Their light footsteps allowed them to gain faster speed. Soon, they arrived at the shore of Babei Daze without even hesitating. He followed Yang Yuyao onto the ice. Yang Yuyao randomly chose a position, pinched his sword finger with his hand, and pointed towards the ice. The snow-white sword energy instantly created a big hole, and the fish sulking at the bottom of the water felt fresh oxygen again. Just like when Yang Yuyao tried it not long ago, everyone rushed to the hole impatiently, only to be squeezed out of the water by the subsequent fish and fell on the ice.

"Fish! Lots of fish! We have something to eat!"

"Thank you, Master Immortal! Thank you, Master Immortal!"

"Thank you, Master Immortal, for your gift!"

People cheered excitedly, but they did not dare to step forward to pick up the fish rashly. Instead, they thought of asking Yang Yuyao for permission first. Even though their hearts were full of gratitude, the intimidation just now made them worried that if they accidentally angered this person, they cheered excitedly. I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat this meal. However, when people raised their heads to look for him, they found that Yang Yuyao's figure had disappeared.

"It's so exciting to just run away after pretending!" Yang Yuyao, who pulled He Qianqing back to the carriage, thought happily to himself. Not having to face so many people anymore allowed him to relax his tense nerves. Yang Yuyao turned around and hugged He Qianqing, "Master, thank you."
