Chapter 91: Miscellaneous Fish

  After turning several corners, Wu Ye Yu and Liang Xiao Tao walked through the streets and alleys of Lin Bo City, constantly devouring snacks in their hands. Although their mouths were stuffed with food, they couldn't stop the strange musical tunes coming from their mouths.

  Again, I turned into a street corner. This street had few pedestrians and there was a small river running through the middle of it, parallel to the direction of the street. Along both banks of the river were residential houses with weeping willows planted on the shore, their branches swaying gently in the breeze.

  Occasionally, there are exquisite stone bridges spanning the river, and in the middle of the river, several small boats float with wafting tea fragrance and instrumental music coming from inside. It seems that those boats are also special places for tasting tea. Unfortunately, Wu Ye and Yu did not find any empty small boats, which was a bit regrettable. However, strolling leisurely on this quiet little path was also exceptionally relaxing.

  Lincheng City is very large, and the inn where Wu Yeru and others stayed was located in the southern part of Lincheng City. Even the streets they had visited before were also located in the south of the city. This area is home to most of the large businesses in Lincheng City and a small number of residents' homes, making it very prosperous commercially.

  The east of the city is mainly a military base, with about two-thirds of the garrison troops stationed there. Of course, there are also merchants and residents on that side. However, most of the so-called businesses are places that operate eating, drinking, and prostitution, and the legendary brothels are concentrated in that area, with a whole street dedicated to this business. There are also scattered gambling dens and pawnshops.

  The north of the city is where the administrative organs of Linbo City are located and where the large households in the city are mainly concentrated. Of course, there are also shops, but most of them are high-end luxury goods stores. The security is also the best in the entire city, and you can see a team of police officers patrolling the streets about every half hour.

  Those who like to steal and rob are not very willing to go there, although the people living there are rich, as long as they do one job, they can get a lot of gains, but the risk is also very high, if caught, it will be a big prison sentence, for pickpockets, it's really not a good idea.

  The central part of Linbo Castle is a continuous range of small hills, with pavilions and towers on top, surrounded by green trees, fake mountains and clear streams. The scenery is very beautiful. On the other side, there are temples and pagodas, and the flowers are blooming profusely, making it a great place for leisure activities.

  Surrounding the mountains is a large open square, which also occupies most of the central area of the city. A large number of transportation vehicles are parked there, including the civilian war kites mentioned earlier, with a considerable number, making it the most important passenger transfer station in Linbo City. The route of the war kite includes all the major and minor cities in Nanjing Province, making it a very important place. The surrounding square is also surrounded by city walls to protect this place, which is guarded by many soldiers in sections.

  However, on that side, as long as you buy a ticket at the outer circle, you can enter, whether it's to visit the small hill in the middle or take a war kite or other transportation to travel, it's all very convenient.

  Wu Ye Yu and Liang Xiao Tao's destination, the slave market, was located in the west of the city. There were also merchants and residents there, mostly common people, but the main purpose of the western city was to trade slaves. There was a medium-sized square there, which was specifically for slave trading. Compared to other places, it was more chaotic, with all sorts of people mixed together.

  But as most slave traders have a large number of mercenaries and professional henchmen, they are mostly ruthless people. Although there are occasional cases of violence, they will never target the buyers. And some petty thieves would not dare to come here, once caught, they would generally not be handed over to the authorities for handling, but rather disappear quietly in most cases. So compared to the security situation in the north of the city, although it is slightly inferior, it is absolutely better than other places, and there are very few buyers or pedestrians who go to the government office to complain.

  Wu Ye Yu and the other person were strolling leisurely, at this time it was just noon, not yet time to eat, besides both of them had eaten a bellyful of snacks and junk food, so they wouldn't feel hungry at all, on the contrary there was a tendency to feel bloated, especially Xiao Tao, whose little belly was already slightly bulging.

  "No! I'm full, Master, so please don't tempt Xiaotao with more delicious food, okay? My stomach really can't fit anything else."

  At this time, Liang Xiaotao was staring at the mango that Wu Yeru took out of his pocket. Although he had never seen such an orange fruit before, judging from the fragrance emitted when Wu Yeru took a bite, it was definitely something that could stimulate his appetite. However, since he had already eaten too many snacks earlier, Xiaotao could only stare at it with envy, secretly swallowing his saliva and struggling to shift his gaze elsewhere.

  "Hmm! Ah~! The taste is not bad, Little Peach. Don't you want to have one? There's still a lot left here, hehehe, humhum! Now do you know your mistake? You used to complain about being tired when practicing with Third Brother, but you didn't know the many benefits of being a cultivator. Look! Now I can circulate my Qi to help digest the food and continue eating, while you... Hehehe, by the time you finish digesting what's in your stomach, I'll have already eaten all this fruit! Hahahaha!"

  Wu Yeyu finished speaking, then burst out laughing proudly, strutting forward with her head held high, causing Liang Xiaotao to feel disheartened and secretly resentful behind her. She silently made up her mind that from now on, she would definitely work harder to practice and cultivate herself, striving to reach the realm where she could eat delicious food without any scruples as soon as possible!

  ……

  Just as the two were strolling leisurely in the quiet alley, the pickpocket gang also quietly followed up and blocked the road at both ends of the alley. There were about a dozen people, all thin and wiry, with pointed mouths and monkey-like faces, not a single one looked decent. However, their hands and feet were exceptionally agile, with a hint of slyness in their eyes, under the leadership of a middle-aged skinny monkey, they had already formed a pincer movement, trapping Wu Ye and Yu in the middle.

  Wu Yeru and Liang Xiaotao also discovered that something was wrong, because the alley was very narrow, only about three meters wide, but it was very long. When Wu Yeru and the other person walked to the middle, they were blocked from both ends.

  Seeing trouble, Wu Ye Yu's heart was eager to try, a flash of excitement in his eyes, the corners of his mouth had risen to his ears, revealing a row of white teeth. His heart had been itching for some time due to the recent calmness, and it was just right to use these ten or so troublemakers to have some fun!

  Liang Xiaotao, on the other hand, had a subtle look of worry on her face. She unconsciously moved to stand in front of Wu Yeru, shielding him with her body as she leaned against the wall. Although she knew that her young master was a cultivator, she still diligently protected him from behind, slowly moving forward while harboring a glimmer of hope in her heart, thinking that these two groups would engage in a fierce battle...

  "Hey, you two little brats! Hand over all the money and valuables on you right now! We've been eyeing you for a long time! Be smart and we'll just give you a good beating. If you don't comply... well, don't say we didn't warn you! You might end up with broken arms or legs, so don't come crying to us later!"

  "Big brother! Let me go break their legs!..."

  "Big brother! Why don't we just put these two bear kids in a sack and throw them into the water, and no one will ever know!"

  "That girl is quite good-looking, a beauty! Big brother, why not sell her to Qingyuelou? You're familiar with the madam there, aren't you? Hehehe, you can make some money from it. As for that boy... hmm, he's also quite good-looking, throw him into Qingyuelou as well! I heard those high-ranking officials have a taste for this sort of thing! Hahahaha!"

  "Hahaha..."

  Listening to a group of subordinates speaking nonsense, the leader was very pleased and thought to himself that these two kids should be scared out of their wits by now. Hmm, look at that little girl in front, she's almost crying already. She's indeed a beautiful young thing, heh heh, we'll have some fun with her later!

  At this time, Liang Xiaotao was really scared. As an eleven-year-old girl, she had never seen such a scene before. Her eyes were already filled with tears, and she bit her lip tightly to prevent herself from crying out loud. Even Wu Yeru felt some sympathy for her, so he stopped giving those rascals the opportunity to speak, and even his desire to have some fun was greatly reduced.

  He abruptly reached into his bosom and pulled out a black object, next to which was a metal ring. He yanked the shiny ring and casually tossed it onto the ground. Then he gently threw the black object at the crowd in front of him. Next, he pulled out several more and flung them out, while the others cooperated by catching them.

  He pulled Liang Xiaotao into his arms, pressed her small head against his chest, and activated the power of water to protect them in the middle, watching quietly.

  Those who subconsciously caught the hand grenade obviously didn't know what the kid threw over, just thought it was exquisite and hurriedly gathered together to study it.

  However, the leader of the hemp pole discovered that something was wrong. The little guy in front of him actually used water to wrap himself and his companion around, although he didn't know what kind of skill this was, but this kid must be a cultivator, and if he was a cultivator, then he wasn't someone they could afford to provoke. He whispered to himself, "Not good!"

  He hastily kicked his subordinate beside him, wanting to remind him to run away, but it was already too late.

  "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"... Several loud explosions.

  All the hemp in front of Wu Ye had been scattered on the ground, with broken limbs and brain fragments splattered everywhere, but because they had protected themselves with water early on, their bodies didn't get stained.

  As his cultivation increased, he had long since mastered the control of primary water force to the extreme. Not to mention defending against some shrapnel from hand grenades, even defending against bombs at close range was effortless.

  Gently pressing down the little peach's head in her bosom, Wu Ye Yu softly comforted, "It's alright, it's alright. These thugs have all been taken care of by me, there's nothing to worry about. The scene is a bit unpleasant, so don't lift your head, I'll take you to a safe place right away."

  Then, Wu Ye Yu's body flashed with a ray of light and disappeared instantly. After a few flashes, he reappeared in another deserted alley several streets away, sitting under the shade of a tree with Xiao Tao in his arms.

  Stroking Xiaotao's chin, he lifted her head up and looked into her eyes which were still misty with tears. Wu Yeran had a hint of teasing on his face as he said, "How about it? Now you know the importance of cultivation, right? If I hadn't been here today, you little girl might have been sold to a brothel, what would you do then?" After speaking, he continued to gently stroke Xiaotao's back to comfort her.

  "After we get back, Xiaotao you can follow me to cultivate, at that time I will buy many little companions to accompany you in cultivation."

  "Uh-huh."
