Chapter 034 Peaceful City
According to Tai Lisuo's instructions.
Xu Sanduo concentrated on practicing the second-level magic.
In addition, Wang Jiu often took time out to accompany Xu Sanduo in practical training.
There are no years in the mountains, and the cold ends without knowing the years.
Summer goes and autumn comes, the autumn leaves fall and the cold wind blows.
In the blink of an eye, another year is about to pass.
The three people who had been busy practicing, except Xu Sanduo, did not notice that the annual Tianlong Festival was approaching.
During the actual combat training in recent days, Wang Jiu discovered that Xu Sanduo was distracted several times during the actual combat sparring.
This kind of situation has never happened to Xu Sanduo before.
Although Xu Sanduo is stubborn, people who are stubborn tend to be more focused when they concentrate on doing things.
However, Xu Sanduo became distracted during sparring for several days in a row.
Wang Jiu asked Xu Sanduo: "Sanduo! Are you anxious to break through and feel psychologically stressed?"
Xu Sanduo said: "No, no pressure. The teacher said not to be anxious, so I am not anxious."
Wang Jiu said, "Then why did you lose focus several times during the sparring these past few days? You have to understand that being distracted in a fight is a big taboo. If you are not careful, you may lose your life! Do you understand?"
Xu Sanduo said: "Uncle Wang, I understand. I just miss home."
Wang Jiu said, "It's normal to miss home. If you miss home, then tell your master and go back home to visit. Your family must miss you after you've been away for such a long time. You should go home to reunite with your family. Let's go find your master."
Xu Sanduo said: "Okay, thank you Uncle Wang."
Wang Jiu led Xu Sanduo to the place where Taili Suo was practicing and told Taili Suo about the situation.
Tai Lisuo said: "Yes, if you miss home, then go back and visit. This is a very normal thing, what is there to be ashamed of?"
Xu Sanduo said: "But, but, I can't bear to leave you, teachers."
Tai Lisuo said: "Why are you reluctant to leave? You are just going home for a trip, it's not like you will never come back."
Wang Jiu asked, "By the way, Sanduo, where is your home? Is it far?"
Xu Sanduo said: "My home is in Anning County, not far from here."
Wang Jiu said, "Anning County is only about 500 to 600 kilometers away from here. It's not far! It only takes two days to go back and forth. Go home and see your master. If you miss him, why don't you come back?"
Tai Lisuo asked, "Old Wang, is it safe to go to Anning County from here?"
Wang Jiu said: "I actually forgot about this. Whether it is safe or not depends on the person. Sanduo is only a second-level magician. It would definitely be unsafe for him to go back alone! How about this, I send Sanduo back?"
Tai Lisuo said: "If you want to go, let's go together. Just think of it as a change of place for cultivation."
Xu Sanduo said happily: "That's great, the teacher and Uncle Wang are coming to my house, my father will definitely be very happy."
Wang Jiu said: "Okay, the annual Tianlong Festival is coming soon, and we are both alone. I will send Sanduo home and go to Sanduo's house to celebrate the festival. The Tianlong Festival is the most important festival in the Tianlong Continent every year.
It would be more lively in Anning County. It would be too quiet for the two of us in this small valley."
Tai Lisuo said, "Okay, let's go to An Ning City together. After the Tianlong Festival, we will be in An Ning City. We can find a place to practice and we don't have to come back to Ping An Town."
Wang Jiu said: "Well, that's fine. An Ning City is not far from the Warcraft Mountains."
Xu Sanduo was extremely happy and said to the two of them, "That's great. Thank you, teacher, and thank you, Uncle Wang."
Wang Jiu said: "You're welcome. When we go to your house, you will have to entertain us. We will have to thank you then."
Xu Sanduo said: "My father will definitely be very happy to entertain the teacher and Uncle Wang. It's great."
Tai Lisuo asked: "By the way, Sanduo, can you tell us who else is in your family besides your parents?"
I heard Tai Lisuo ask who else was at home.
Xu Sanduo said somewhat sadly: "There are only my father and I in my family, the old housekeeper Wu Bo and two servants. I have never seen my mother. My father said that my mother had a difficult delivery and died when I was born!"
Wang Jiu comforted him, "Sanduo, don't be sad. My parents have passed away a long time ago. You still have your father. At least he is much better than me."
Tai Lisuo smiled bitterly and said, "You two still have parents, but I'm even more miserable. I don't even know who my parents are!"
After hearing what the two said, Xu Sanduo didn't know how to comfort them.
Seeing Xu Sanduo hesitated to speak, Tai Lisuo said, "Okay, Sanduo, remember to be filial to your father. As for Lao Wang and I, we are all alone, and we have already gotten used to it."
Wang Jiu said: "Okay, let's not practice today. We will set off early tomorrow morning and arrive at Anning City tomorrow afternoon."
Tai Lisuo said: "Okay, let's set off early tomorrow morning and go to Anning City to take a look. I haven't been to the county town yet, haha..."
Xu Sanduo said: "When we get to Anning City, I will take you and Uncle Wang to have a look around. There are many delicious foods in Anning City. I will take you to taste the delicacies of Anning City."
Tai Lisuo said, "Okay, let's go and try the food in Anning City. Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. The same goes for cultivation. It's not a good idea to just stay in this small valley and cultivate. It's a good opportunity to go out and walk around and see more."
Wang Jiu continued, "It is better to meet countless people than to travel thousands of miles. In this world, human hearts are more dangerous than monsters. It is good to go out more and gain more experience."
Tai Lisuo said, "Old Wang, how much level 5 and 6 monster meat do you have? We can't just go to Sanduo's house empty-handed, right? We don't have anything else, how about taking some monster meat with us?"
Wang Jiu said: "Don't worry, brother. I still have several complete level 5 and level 6 monsters in my storage ring."
Xu Sanduo said: "Uncle Wang, teacher, you don't have to be polite. My father and I are already very happy that you can come to my home."
Wang Jiu smiled and said, "Sanduo, you don't need to say more about this. This is our adult's business, so children shouldn't worry about it."
The three of them agreed to go to Anning City. They went downstairs early the next morning and did some simple exercises without practicing.
The three of them packed up quickly and set off for Anning City, northwest of Ping'an Town.
Not only did Wang Jiu break through and become a level 8 warrior, but he also ate monster meat and practiced every day.
Wang Jiu's physique is about to break through to the fourth level.
Xu Sanduo, who has the weakest physique, has also reached the strength of the first level physique, while Tai Lisuo is stronger than Xu Sanduo and is currently at the second level physique.
Xu Sanduo, who had the weakest physique among the three, had a physique comparable to that of a first-level magical beast, so the three of them did not need to hurry and their speed was very fast.
On the road, from time to time you will encounter groups of people riding various forms of magical beasts on their way.
There are no weaklings among these people on the road. Most of them have the strength of level 3 or even level 4 warriors.
Moreover, each of them had a fierce look and didn't seem like a good person.
Tai Lisuo asked Xu Sanduo curiously: "Sanduo, how did you get from Anning City to Ping'an Town alone?"
Xu Sanduo replied: "My father went around asking people to take me in as an apprentice, but no one was willing to take me in. So I ran away from home secretly, wanting to go out and walk around on my own to see if I could meet a master who was willing to teach me.
After leaving Anning City, I didn't have any destination in mind, so I just picked a road and walked along it until I arrived at Ping'an Town."
Wang Jiu said, "You are quite courageous. You can't even use level one magic skillfully, yet you dare to run around alone."
Xu Sanduo smiled bitterly and said, "I just came out to try my luck. I didn't want to see my father going around asking for help. I didn't expect that I was so lucky. I met the teacher not long after I arrived in Ping'an Town."
Wang Jiu said: "Of course you are lucky. If you were unlucky, you wouldn't even be able to reach Ping'an Town and you would be dead."
Xu Sanduo said: "In fact, I didn't dare to take the main road. I walked along the direction of the main road in the mountains and forests beside the main road."
Wang Jiu laughed and said, "Haha, you are quite smart, aren't you? I was wondering how you managed to get to Ping'an Town by yourself.
That's how it is! If you walk along the road in the mountains and woods on both sides of the road, people will think you are a spy for robbers.
In this way, unless you encounter a real robber, others will not dare to attack you easily. They will just try to get away from your sight as soon as possible to avoid being targeted by the robber."
Xu Sanduo said: "Actually, I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just didn't dare to take the main road because I was afraid that the road was unsafe."
Tai Lisuo smiled and said, "This may be what the saying goes, fools have good fortune."
Wang Jiu said: "Look at the caravans and pedestrians we met along the way. They were all in a hurry. Except for staying in the city, it is not safe anywhere outside the city. Sanduo is really a lucky man."
Tai Lisuo asked: "Caravan? Have we ever encountered a caravan?"
Wang Jiu said, "We have already encountered quite a few. Those who are in groups of three or five, riding their mounts in a hurry, are mostly caravans . As for the goods, they are all placed in the storage rings. Who would set up a caravan to deliver goods?"
Tai Lisuo smiled and said, "I forgot about the storage ring. It is convenient to have a storage ring. It will be much faster and safer to deliver goods this way."
Wang Jiu said: "Of course, more importantly, others don't know what the goods are. Unless there is special intelligence, we can know whether the goods sent by others are valuable."
Tai Lisuo asked, "Isn't there a county town closer to Ping'an Town? Why are there so many people delivering goods from Anning City to Ping'an Town?"
Wang Jiu said: "Don't underestimate a small place like Ping'an Town. It is located on the edge of the Monster Mountain Range. It is frequented by adventurers, so the profits are still considerable.
In fact, places like Ping'an Town are controlled by forces of all sizes.
The Magic Beast Mountain Range produces a large number of magic cores and various materials, and the prices are much lower than those in other towns. How can one not be tempted by the profits here?"
Xu Sanduo said, "Yes, the business in various places is controlled by others. Many caravans are actually helping those forces that control the business in various places, transporting goods and earning some hard work fees."
Wang Jiu said: "Sanduo is right, you know a lot. Transporting goods takes time and there are certain dangers on the road. Therefore, many forces entrust the task of transporting goods to specialized people."
Xu Sanduo said: "Actually, I don't really understand it. I know this because my father also has a caravan that specializes in transporting goods for others."
Tai Lisuo said: "Sanduo, your father is also very capable. He can form his own caravan."
Xu Sanduo said: "My father is a fourth-level warrior, and he formed a caravan with several uncles. If it weren't for my father, he would have spent all the money he earned on me.
Father must have been able to rent a shop in Anning City and open his own shop. In that case, he wouldn't have to make such a hard and dangerous delivery!"
Wang Jiu said: "Parents are so kind. Your father bought you so many magic secrets. Even though they are just ordinary magic secrets, he must have spent a lot of money on them."
Xu Sanduo said: "My father asked someone to buy it for me from the capital. He didn't tell me how much it cost. But I also know that those things must not be cheap."
