Chapter 384: Han Feng returns home, new regulations for travel permits, Xia City street vendors, blocking

If Hong Sect is the busiest area in the entire Mo'ao Jiuzhen, then Dongling Village, located in the far west of Beishuo Town, is the most desolate area.

Beishuo is the northernmost town at the southern foot of the entire Mo'ao Mountain, and the Beining Mountain area where Dongling Village is located belongs to the most remote Jingxi District of Beishuo. In the entire Jingxi District, it is the village closest to the Shuanglong Mountain cliff in the west. Using the word "desolate" to describe it is definitely not an exaggeration.

To give the simplest example, take the news about Does Does Da Xia Town that has been spreading among the Eight Towns recently; it didn't reach the Beining Mountain area until mid-July, and by the time the people in Dongling Village received the news, it was almost August.

There is no other way!

The more desolate and remote the place, the slower the news naturally spreads.

Does Does Da Xia Year 8, August 4th, late night.

Qingshi Road, north of Dongling Village.

A middle-aged man in his thirties, carrying a long blade on his back, holding two four or five-year-old boys in his arms, and leading a young woman in gray cotton clothes, was walking rapidly toward Dongling Village.

This was clearly a family of four.

The young woman had been sullen all along and was already unhappy. Seeing her husband speed up his pace again, she finally couldn't help but speak.

"It would have been so good to stay in Gutan Village. Why did we have to travel such a long distance? I asked along the way, this Jingxi District is the most remote district in Beishuo Town. What kind of good place can it be?"

"You were already a deputy leader in Gutan Village. Wouldn't it have been comfortable for the three of us to stay there and live safely?"

"You went on a long trip at the end of last year, saying you were going to see your sister. When you came back, you were like a different person, refusing to tell me anything."

"How good is the place where your two sisters live? Did we really have to leave our hometown and go there to live?"

"Han Feng, are you deaf? Answer me quickly!"

"Why did we leave Gutan Village?"

"Han Feng, if you don't tell me the truth, you can go by yourself. I'm taking Ming'er and Rui'er back to Gutan Village!"

Having traveled for two days, Tan Rou was already unhappy. Seeing her husband turn a deaf ear to what she said, her emotions flared up immediately. She snatched the two children from his arms and turned to walk back.

Han Feng naturally wouldn't let his wife turn back. He blocked her path, lowered his head to think for a moment, then looked up and said in a deep voice: "Rou'er, there are only two kilometers left to Dongling Village. I don't actually have to hide it from you anymore, but everything is a long story, and I can't explain it clearly for a moment. You just have to follow me, and you will understand when we get there. I wouldn't bring you away from our hometown for no reason. I want to give you, Ming'er, and Rui'er a better life. We have been married for six years; can't you trust me?"

Hearing her husband say this, Tan Rou's heart softened instantly.

Seeing his wife's expression soften, Han Feng took the opportunity to take the two sons back into his arms and asked in a low voice: "Ming'er, Rui'er, are you tired?"

"Dad, we are men, we are not tired."

"Mom should be more tired than us. Dad, you carry her! We can walk ourselves."

Although the two children were only four or five years old, they were unusually sensible. Knowing that their parents had just quarreled, they were afraid of adding to the trouble and both said they were not tired.

The younger one, Han Ming, couldn't help but say a thoughtful word.

But this sentence made Tan Rou laugh uncontrollably.

"Haha, you're going to laugh me to death."

Tan Rou's resentment was dissolved by her younger son's unintentional remark. After laughing for a long time, she couldn't help but walk up and pinch her younger son's chubby face, then glared at Han Feng and said: "Let's go! I want to see what kind of good place your two sisters live in, that you had to bring us there, hmph!"

Her wife's mood improved, and Han Feng felt much more relaxed. While continuing to hurry, he gave a thumbs up to his two sons and smiled: "You two are smarter than Dad. When we get to Xia City, your two aunts will definitely like you."

Hearing their father mention the word "aunt," curiosity rose in the eyes of the two little guys, Han Ming and Han Rui.

Ever since their father went on a long trip at the end of last year and came back, he would mention their two aunts from time to time. Before this, they didn't even know they had two aunts.

The family continued to walk south and soon saw the campfire of Dongling Village from afar.

"You are not from our village, are you?"

All villages have people patrolling nearby at night, and Dongling Village is no exception.

When the four of them were one mile away from the village, they were discovered by the patrol.

This configuration of a family of four was clearly not bad people, and their goal was obviously Dongling Village, so the patrol team appeared directly.

Han Feng had long noticed them and was not surprised. He bowed and smiled at them: "I am Han Feng, and I have an appointment with Village Leader Lu. Please report for me, brother. Village Leader Lu will know when he hears my name."

The two captains of the patrol team tonight happened to be Lu Yang's two disciples, Zhu Bai Xu and Wan Qingyu. Hearing that Han Feng was looking for their master, Lu Yang, Zhu Bai Xu frowned. He could perceive that Han Feng was very strong, likely Cold-Resisting Grade, and didn't dare to be negligent, so he bowed and responded: "You came at a bad time, my master is not in the village recently!"

Not in the village?

Han Feng had come from so far away and wouldn't just turn back. He immediately continued: "Then may I ask if the three adults Lin Fan, Wang Tao, and Zhu Shun are here? They also know me."

Hearing Han Feng say these three names directly, Zhu Bai Xu immediately let go of his guard and nodded: "Then you wait at the entrance of the village first, I will go and notify the three adults."

Han Feng nodded, and took his wife and children to wait beside the village.

"Brother Han, finally here!"

Soon, a middle-aged man walked out of the village with a smile.

"Brother Wang!"

Seeing that the person was Wang Tao, a smile appeared on Han Feng's face.

Wang Tao was from the original Longshan camp, and Han Feng was no stranger to him.

"Village Leader Lu went out to handle business recently, so I will receive you. These three are Brother Han's wife and children. What handsome boys, follow me to the main building!"

Wang Tao clearly knew that Han Feng was coming. He praised Han Feng's two sons, extended an invitation immediately, and led the four of them toward the main building.

"Can enter the main building? Is this Han Feng from the master's previous camp again?"

"Must be, that Han Feng has Cold-Resisting Grade cultivation."

"The strength of the Village Leader's previous camp is really strong. Anyone who comes is basically Cold-Resisting Grade cultivation, tsk tsk..."

Seeing Wang Tao directly invite Han Feng and his family into the main building, Zhu Bai Xu and the other showed surprise on their faces.

Wan Qingyu on the side thought of something and whispered to Zhu Bai Xu: "Brother, have you heard? The Does Does Da Xia Town that has been spreading among the Eight Towns recently, their camp regulations are actually the same as ours in Dongling. They also divide into eight departments, and the names of the eight departments are exactly the same as ours, called Camp Needs, Hunting, Logging, Jurisdiction, Craftsman, Civil Affairs, Prison, and Military..."

Wan Qingyu's voice became smaller and smaller, and by the end, it was almost inaudible.

But hearing this, Zhu Bai Xu still turned to look at him, and in their pupils, there was clearly deep excitement.

They had been in Dongling for almost a year. They were very strange before why Dongling was different from other villages in Beining Mountain, using the eight-department regulations. It wasn't until the end of last month that quite a bit of news about Does Does Da Xia Town gradually spread to Beining Mountain. Hearing about the eight departments of Does Does Da Xia, they instantly had some guesses in their minds.

The eight departments of Does Does Da Xia and the eight departments of Dongling had exactly the same names, the only difference being the suffix—one is department, one is department.

How could there be such a coincidence in the world?

If it was just a guess at that time, then later, as the news spread, Lu Yang immediately abolished the eight departments of Dongling and changed it to the same management mode as other stations in Beining Mountain, they could basically be sure.

Their master Lu Yang, or rather, this group of people in Dongling, definitely had a connection with that Does Does Da Xia Town. Even if they were bolder, it was very likely that their master was a person who came out of that Does Does Da Xia Town.

Currently, they are not the only two who have this guess. Lu Yun and the rest of the disciples basically have an idea in their hearts.

The disciples all tacitly did not discuss this matter.

But as Does Does Da Xia Town became more and more famous, and more and more news about Does Does Da Xia spread to Beining Mountain, the mood of these people became more excited day by day.

"When the master comes back from handling business this time, everything will be clear. He will definitely take the initiative to tell us!"

At the Hong Sect Banquet, Does Does Da Xia Lord Xia Hong struck with a casual blow, startling Chuishan Town Lord Duan Hong and Town Head Mu Longhe away. Among the remaining Lords of the Seven Towns, no one dared to say a word for Chuishan Town.

Zhu Bai Xu's mind floated with this news, clenching his fists, his eyes full of yearning for Does Does Da Xia Town.

"Brother Han, go down directly from the secret passage. Lu Shouzheng has been staying in your hometown during this period. You should be able to see him when you come out from the secret passage."

Bringing Han Feng's family of four into the main building, Wang Tao didn't talk nonsense, directly opened the secret passage entrance behind the main seat in the main hall, and signaled the four to go down directly.

Unlike his wife Tan Rou, this was Han Feng's second time here, and there was no surprise on his face. After bowing to Wang Tao, he took his wife and children down the secret passage directly and walked toward the Hanjiong station under the mountain wall.

The Hanjiong secret passage was opened in August of Does Does Da Xia Year 3. It has been a full five years now, and the secret passage has naturally changed its appearance.

Entering the secret passage, the four saw an iron-cast runway, and many simple flatbed carts were piled up on the side of the runway. Seeing the flatbed carts, Han Feng understood immediately. After taking his wife and children up, he pushed hard backward, and the flatbed cart slid all the way along the runway.

"Dad, this cart is so fun!"

"It's too fast, no need to walk at all."

"What a big wind, hahaha!"

Children are the most playful. The flatbed cart slid rapidly along the runway. With their father protecting them, they were not afraid and kept saying it was fun. Tan Rou, who had sat on such a thing for the first time, also felt convenient and comfortable, and couldn't help but laugh along with her sons.

Unlike his wife and children, Han Feng had been observing since entering the secret passage.

He walked out of this secret passage six years ago. When he left, he used brute force to shake down a long section. Now the secret passage has long changed its appearance, and it is not just as simple as being cleaned up.

The width of the entire secret passage has increased several times. It is five meters high and more than three meters wide. The entire secret passage is reinforced with wood and iron, and some key structures use a large amount of pure iron for support. During the rapid sliding of the flatbed cart, one cannot perceive a trace of trembling, which shows the stability of the secret passage.

"It is already very difficult to shake down this secret passage on a large scale again. Unless a large number of Cold-Resisting Grade soldiers stronger than me take action at the same time, it is impossible. Does Does Da Xia has infiltrated Beining Town for four years and has reinforced this secret passage so tirelessly. It seems..."

Withdrawing his gaze from the secret passage ramparts, Han Feng's face was full of shock. At the end of last year, the Jiuzhen Allied Forces were defeated at Hongguan. He returned directly to Jin Shan Town. A few days after returning, he came to Beining to find Lu Yang.

Before, seeing Lu Yang and the 31 people at Hongguan, Han Feng had a vague feeling that Does Does Da Xia had long been different from the past, and its strength must far exceed his imagination.

But at the end of the year, arriving at Dongling Village, he was still stunned.

The entire Dongling Village actually has over a hundred Cold-Resisting Grade soldiers and hundreds of Earth-Digging Realm limits.

Just this strength is enough to crush the Gutan Village where he is.

The key is that Han Feng knows very well that Lu Yang is just a subordinate of Xia Hong.

Then how strong must Does Does Da Xia be?

The subsequent trip to Does Does Da Xia naturally set off monstrous waves in Han Feng's heart.

Later, seeing his two sisters, Han Yue and Han Yue, in Xia City, seeing their Cold-Resisting Grade cultivation, understanding what kind of life they are living now, and then returning to Gutan Village from Xia City, Han Feng has never stopped thinking about it.

He has been planning for the past half year to send his wife and children to live in Xia City. Of course, besides this, there is also his own personal future.

Han Feng is not a person willing to be ordinary. Six years ago, he led people to leave Longyou from the secret passage and arrived at the Jiuzhen territory. Because he was unfamiliar with the environment, he mistakenly broke into the Jin Shan Town territory. Along the way, many died or were injured, and finally only three hundred-plus people remained, who were taken in by Gutan Village leader Tan Yuan.

In just six short years, Han Feng not only broke through to the peak of the Frigid Realm with a strength reaching 17 bristles, but also married Tan Yuan's niece, Tan Rou. Relying on the support of that group of Cold-Jade elders from back then, he became the deputy leader of Gutan Village.

Theoretically, his status in Gutan Village is not low, and he could live well if he continued to live in Gutan Village with his wife and children. But people who have seen the Heavenly Palace, how can they be willing to live an ordinary life?

Don't even talk about comparing Gutan Village with Xia City. He has been to Jin Shan City, and based on his observation, even Jin Shan City is not as good as Xia City.

Just to mention one point, he saw children of the same age as his two sons in Xia City last year, and they were basically a circle stronger than his own two children. Just this point alone gave him sufficient reason to bring his wife and children to Xia City.

Of course, there is also his own cultivation problem.

Han Feng is only thirty-four years old this year, and he is unwilling to stop at a strength of 17 bristles for the rest of his life, but the problem is that it is too difficult to improve strength after the peak of the Frigid Realm.

Jin Shan Town's Tiger Power Pill costs 100,000 taels of silver per pill.

This price, Han Feng simply cannot afford.

He is the deputy leader of Gutan Village, his authority and treatment are naturally not low, and he has some silver income on weekdays. Moreover, his strength is not weak, and he occasionally accepts the conscription of Jin Shan City or goes to help other villages, which can earn a little extra, but the speed is too slow.

He saves at most 6,000 taels of silver a year on average. Calculated at this speed, it will take at least fifteen years to save enough money to buy a Tiger Power Pill. By the time he is seventy or eighty, he can only buy two or three Tiger Power Pills.

How can Han Feng endure this?

In his heart, there is a Manifestation dream!

Last year, the Great Awakening Temple caused trouble, and Jin Shan Town conscripted Cold-Resisting Grade soldiers from all villages to help. As a deputy leader, he could actually not come at all. The reason he had to come was to earn more silver.

This can also be considered fate. A risky trip to Hongguan allowed him to accidentally meet Lu Yang and others again and learn about the recent situation of Does Does Da Xia.

"Last year, Han Shuang took me to Does Does Da Xia's Camp Needs Department to see. The Dragon Carp Pill and Green Cod Pill there only need 30,000 contribution points per pill for internal exchange. Let's not mention the way to get contribution points. The Camp Needs Department exchanges 80 points for 1 jin of silver. Converted, 30,000 contribution points is 3,750 taels of silver. The silver I have on me now is enough to buy five pills at once, so I must join Does Does Da Xia!"

Han Feng pondered slightly in his heart, his eyes full of determination. Joining Does Does Da Xia can not only bring a better life to his family, but he can also continue to improve his strength, and even realize his Manifestation dream in the future is not impossible.

"Moreover, just looking at the news that has been spreading recently, even if half of it is true, it is enough to prove that the things I saw in Xia City last year are not the full picture of Does Does Da Xia. Does Does Da Xia's true strength is probably far more terrifying than I imagined!"

Thinking of the news about Does Does Da Xia that spread to Jin Shan Town last month, Han Feng's eyes gradually became hot, and his expression began to get excited.

In his mind, he inexplicably recalled the person he had met once six years ago when he led people to leave Longyou from the Hanjiong secret passage. Thinking that he had once launched a sneak attack on the other side, and the other side had personally invited him to join Does Does Da Xia, he shook his head repeatedly, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

The entire Hanjiong secret passage is 45 kilometers long. If walking, Han Feng would take at least two hours with his wife and children. But by sliding rapidly along the runway with the flatbed cart, the four of them only took less than a quarter of an hour to get down.

Clang...

"Brother Han has finally arrived!"

Lu Yang was actually waiting for him at the end of the passage.

Han Feng guessed instantly that Wang Tao had sent the news down in advance. He hurriedly took his wife and two children and jumped off the flatbed cart, bowed to Lu Yang and said: "Han Feng pays respects to Lord Lu!"

He is already very familiar with Does Does Da Xia and also knows Lu Yang's official position. He came this time to join Does Does Da Xia, so naturally, he cannot call him casually as before.

Hearing Han Feng's address, Lu Yang immediately understood and smiled, leading the family of four out of the secret passage.

Like six years ago, the exit of the secret passage was the main building of the original Hanjiong camp.

Of course, it has now become the office building of the Hanjiong station of Does Does Da Xia.

Although it was his second time here, returning to this place where he grew up since childhood, even if things were different, Han Feng still felt very warm in his heart.

"Kill!"

"Drink!"

"All soft, no strength? Use more strength."

"Kill!!!"

"Drink!!!"

Before walking out of the office building, several unison roars suddenly came from the Hanjiong Gourd Valley, which sounded a bit like training soldiers. A trace of curiosity appeared in Han Feng's eyes.

"By the way, Lu has been busy leading troops recently and has no time to take care of Dongling. Recently, Lord Wang has been in charge there. Brother Han, please forgive me."

"Lord Lu is too polite to Han!"

Seeing Lu Yang specifically bow and explain to him, Han Feng hurriedly bowed back, shook his head repeatedly, and then walked out of the building with him.

"Kill!"

Walking out of the building, a thousand-man army clad in light golden hundred-forged battle armor suddenly came into Han Feng's eyes, making his expression shake violently.

The army was divided into ten phalanxes, each with a hundred people. In the front phalanx, the soldiers' weapons were varied, and their cultivation levels were all Cold-Resisting Grade; the remaining nine phalanxes, three held a kind of giant saber with a somewhat strange shape, and the remaining six were all equipped with long swords. ===== CHAPTER 385 =====
