Chapter 130 Poor Town

After walking for about ten minutes, a quaint small town came into view.

It is said to be a small town, but it is actually a village formed by connecting some houses together.

At the entrance, there were ancient wooden watchtowers on both sides, and on top of them stood two men in coarse linen clothes.

Both men held some simple iron machetes in their hands.

This scene reminds Qiangu Wuji of those bandit base camps in anti-Japanese dramas that dominate the mountains.

"This place is really backward."

Qiangu Wuji said with emotion.

It is rare that such a place still exists in a society like Douluo San that has become completely modernized.

"Let's go."

Gu Yue didn't think too much, she said casually and walked ahead.

Seeing this, Qiangu Wuji hurriedly followed.

The two arrived at the entrance of the town, and just as they were about to enter, a guard above the watchtower asked them with a smile.

"Are you the foreigners from the west who just moved here? Are you here to buy things?"

Qiangu Wuji raised his eyes and looked at him, and saw a big man with an unshaven beard. He had a very ferocious appearance, but his smile gave people a very friendly feeling.

He was also polite, nodded and responded to the other party.

"Yeah, I'm just curious, come and take a look."

"Heh, what's so good about this crappy place? It's a place where birds don't poop."

"You foreigners must be from a prosperous big city, right? Can you tell me about it? What is the outside world like?"

The middle-aged man seemed to be very curious about the two of them, so he turned over and jumped down from the watchtower.

When the other party stood forward, Qiangu Wuji realized how tall and tall this guy was.

He has grown a bit taller now, almost 150cm tall, but he can only reach the opponent's armpit.

He was slightly shocked, and then he said with a smile.

"What else can we do? Aren't they all the same?"

"Hey, is that true? I thought the big cities outside must be very powerful, but it turns out they are no different from ours."

"If you say that, then I'm not interested anymore."

Qiangu Wuji listened silently and did not interrupt.

In fact, there is a reason why he didn't tell the other party. The people here will definitely not be able to leave in their lifetime.

Instead of telling him how good the outside world is and letting him dream about it but be unable to do anything about it, it is better to tell him a white lie.

"By the way, uncle, can I ask out of curiosity? It doesn't seem like outsiders will come to this place, so who are you guys guarding against?"

Qiangu Wuji looked at the big knife in the opponent's hand with some curiosity.

This place is so backward and isolated from the world. It doesn't look like anyone will come in. So is a guard still necessary?
"Oh, you said that."

The big man glanced at the big knife in his hand, then spit on the ground.

"This is not to guard against those beasts. Those beasts will come here every year. My little daughter was picked up by those beasts."

Speaking of this, there was a little more hatred in his eyes.

Qiangu Wuji was a little surprised when he heard this?
Animals?

What does this mean?
He thought of a plot in the original work, in which Tang Wulin encountered some soul beasts in the desert.

Could it be those things that this big man was talking about?
Speaking of which, this is a desert, could it be the territory of that military region?
"Anyway, girls, if you are fine, go back early. Those beasts are really powerful and they like to eat your tender skin and tender meat."

The big man reminded kindly.

"Well, thank you uncle, let's buy some things and go back."

Qiangu Wuji nodded gratefully, then waved and entered the town with Gu Yue.In the small town, the first thing you can feel when you enter is a kind of dilapidation and depression. The streets are paved with gravel slabs, and potholes can be seen everywhere.

On both sides of the street, there are some simple merchant houses, but most of them sell camels, sheep, and the like.

In addition, there are some selling leather.

Gu Yue was obviously not here for the first time. After coming in, he led the way in a familiar manner.

"Let's buy you some clothes. You don't seem to have anything to change."

"Ah."

Qiangu Wuji didn't refuse and nodded.

In this way, the two of them walked towards the center of the town, and soon came to a leather shop.

But just as the two were about to enter, there was a sudden argument from the side.

"Old woman, didn't I tell you yesterday? You are not allowed to set up a stall here, why are you still here today?"

"Ah? Boss, aren't I far away from the entrance of your store? Can't I do it here as well?"

"Stop talking nonsense, take your stuff and get out of here right away. It makes the entrance of my store stink. Is there anyone here to buy anything? It's because of you, an old woman, that I don't have any business."

Hearing the argument, Qiangu Wuji frowned, because among the voices, there was someone he was familiar with, the woman who came to deliver food to Gu Yue in the morning.

Gu Yue obviously heard it too, and walked towards the place where the dispute occurred without saying a word.

It was about 20 meters away next to this leather shop.

At this time, a fat man wearing a mirror coat was glaring fiercely at the old woman who fell on the ground in front of him.

In front of the old woman, a vegetable stall was set up, but now the vegetables on the stall had been knocked over by the fat man and were scattered all over the floor.

The old woman obviously had difficulty with her legs and feet. At this time, she fell weakly on the ground, looking at her vegetables, and she was so anxious that she cried.

"You, how could you do this? This is the vegetable I have worked hard to grow for a year. If you knock it over, what else will I eat?"

"Hmph, I don't care about you! Who asked you to sell things in front of my store?"

Looking at this scene, Qiangu Wuji frowned.

At this time, Gu Yue also came to the old woman's side. She didn't say anything, she just bent over and helped the old woman up from the ground, and then stared at the fat man coldly.

"Apologize!"

"It's you?"

The old woman glanced at Qiangu Wuji, her eyes full of surprise.

Gu Yue nodded and said nothing.

At this time, Qiangu Wuji walked up to the old woman, gently patted the dust off her body, and asked with concern.

"Grandma, are you okay?"

The old woman looked at him, the surprise in her eyes even more intense.

"Ah, are you awake?"

Qiangu Wuji nodded.

When the old woman heard this, she looked like she was crying with joy. She held his wrist tightly and hummed.

"Just wake up, just wake up, but you don't know how much your sister has cared about you this year and hopes that you will wake up soon."

As she spoke, she thought of something, tightened Qiangu Wuji's wrist again, and said nervously.

"By the way, hurry up and persuade your sister. I'll be fine. She can't afford to offend this boss."

"nothing."

Qiangu Wuji shook his head, indicating to the other party not to worry.

After all, Gu Yue was also the Silver Dragon King, so how could he suffer in front of such an ordinary person?
