Heroes of the Fantasy World

"There are only four copper coins left, and we are finally one step closer to regaining our freedom." She should have planned this way.

According to her past habits, in order to find a little comfort from the hard days with no end in sight, Yu Ke would often encourage herself in her heart.

Yes, Yu Ke recalled being locked up in a small dark room countless times when he was a child, and in that narrow and dark place, he had delusional "freedom" countless times.But now, she no longer has such thoughts.

She clutched the remaining four copper coins and pressed them to her chest as if she was caring for some treasure. She really felt the fact that although she was under the same control before and now, the person she obeyed now was not simply a general. She treats her like a maid, and Yu Ke can often see things in that young swordsman that others don't have.

Sometimes, he will ruthlessly nibble at the enemy's body like an eagle, accurate and fierce; sometimes he will spread his wings to shade others, warm and reliable.It seems that the temperament is repetitive, but in fact it is consistent.

"I don't understand many things, but the only thing I know is that I voluntarily stayed by his side. One day, I will become his sharpest 'sword'."

The voice in my heart kept echoing, calling out rhythmically with my breathing.Soon, another voice called her.

"Ake, how are you? Your head is so hot!"

Yu Ke opened his eyes in a daze, and seeing Ayu waiting anxiously, said, "I don't know, I always feel top-heavy."

"I called Mr. Bai to come over and take a look."

After a while, Bai Feng came to touch her forehead and the palm of her hand, and said: "It seems that she has suffered from excessive convulsions and contracted a cold."

Ayu said: "Then shall we set off today?"

Yu Ke reacted quickly at this time, before Bai Feng could speak first, she said affirmatively: "Brother Yi, I'm fine, let's go as soon as possible!"

"I didn't intend to take the time to let you rest." Bai Feng sneered and said, "We'll leave after we get the reward."

"Yeah!" Yu Ke immediately put on her shoes and socks and returned to Bai Feng, expressing that she was ready to leave at any time.

Several people packed up their luggage, exchanged some pleasantries with the innkeeper, and then left to go to the government to receive the reward.

Coincidentally, today happened to be the No. 15 day when they came to town.

The town officer Lin Qi set up a posture to receive the guests early in the morning, and the hundred taels of reward silver was padded with exquisite cloth and plates to form a hill.When people saw Bai Feng coming, they greeted him warmly, and they all shouted the prestige of "General Bai Feng".

Bai Feng didn't pay any attention to this, just went to take the reward silver, turned around and left.Unexpectedly, the people in the town, old and young, came here without knowing when, and they blocked the gate of the official mansion completely.

"General Baifeng, thank you for eliminating banditry for the villagers."

"Yesterday, I really had a great time killing it!"

"Thanks to General Baifeng, we have the opportunity to stand up and be human!"

These people all took the most valuable things in their homes and wanted to give them to General Baifeng to express their gratitude, but Baifeng said: "Everyone has contributed manpower and material resources to suppress the bandits, and many people have died or injured. What? Only this bounty is justified. I have eradicated the 'bear disease' for the town, and now it is time to leave."

Ayu looked helplessly at so many good things passing by under his nose, and felt entangled in his heart: he hated that Baifeng for not knowing good and bad, and at the same time, he felt ashamed to accept so many gifts.

There was nowhere to release her resentment, so she vented her anger on Fu Wentao and said, "Wen Tao, do you think we want these?"

"How do I know?" Fu Wentao didn't know why, so he pushed the other party, and said with a smile: "If you want it, then go and ask for it yourself!"

"You!" Ayu was ashamed to let strangers see his petty gain, so he drove Fu Wentao to another place, treated him in his own way, and pushed him, and replied: "Of course I want to." Yes, but 'that person' refuses to take..."

Seeing this, Lin Qi, the town official, walked to the crowd with a smile, and said to everyone: "Fathers and elders, General Baifeng is right. Everyone has contributed to the suppression of the bandits, whether they went to the battlefield or were in the army. Everyone in the town has contributed to protecting our house for us! Therefore, everyone does not owe General Baifeng any kindness, but our government owes General Baifeng a kindness. Therefore, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver as agreed, and Baifeng The general is also happy to accept it, everyone should leave now!"

After everyone listened, they all nodded and said they were reasonable, and gradually left.

Lynch turned to Bai Feng and continued to ask: "General Bai Feng, do you really want to stay for a few more days?"

"The next journey is urgent, so I dare not delay."

Lynch expressed a little regret, and continued: "I wanted you to stay in the town, but I am willing to find a full-time job for the general. I believe that with your ability, you will be reused soon."

"Thank you Lord Lin for your kindness, please forgive me for refusing, because there are more important things waiting for me to do." Bai Feng said: "By the way, why didn't I see Liu Mo today, where are others?"

Lin Qi was a little disappointed, and replied: "Liu Mo didn't come back, he said that he would never come back again."

"Is that so?" Bai Feng shook her head, looked at Yu Ke beside her, as if she could still feel her guilt. "It's fine if you don't come back," he continued, "I just hope Master Lin can listen to my advice. If you really want to protect the people of one side, you can't abide by too many rules and regulations-train your soldiers when you should train them, and take in your followers when you need them." .This troubled world is not what we want, but we can only be forced to bear it. Being a 'good person' cannot protect others."

Lynch silently agreed, and then saw off the distinguished guests all the way, and walked to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the town before giving up.

With this travel expenses, the trip of Bai Feng and his group of four became much easier. There was no longer the embarrassment of sleeping with a horse because of insufficient money. The day was almost healed.

After eradicating the "bear infestation", they encountered significantly more tourists than before.People in the vicinity heard that the bear problem had been eliminated, so they all chose to change their way.

That is to say, Baifeng and the others don’t have to move forward carefully like looking for the road with hazelnuts. Every morning is happy, and every night will not be cold; Ayu is very willing to take this opportunity to earn a small amount of money as a bodyguard by traveling together.

On this small half way to the capital, they walked very fast, as fast as they arrived in the blink of an eye, but they did walk for a long time.

Yu Ke is the person who can best prove this. She has never stopped practicing swords along the way. Her arms and legs are getting stronger day by day, and her swordsmanship has improved rapidly. The reason for practicing martial arts is because she has an extraordinary attachment to the "sword" in her heart.

"I think she is very similar to me." Fu Wentao often sighs to Ayu in private.

From Cangzhou to the west, they walked for about two months. From the heavy snow to the spring, they finally arrived at their destination, Jinyang City.
