I Have A City In An Alternate World

2463 En route (1)

According to Buttface, this world was extremely vast, so vast that it was boundless.

Because of the existence of some special means of communication, the information in this world was not blocked. Even the unemployed er Gou knew many rumors about the outside world.

After a period of time, the strange news that happened in other places would spread through various ways.

As for whether it was true or not, it was impossible to tell. In fact, not many people cared.

It was unlike many underdeveloped dimensions where even two neighboring villages did not know each other.

Before er Gou came to ghost city, he had heard a lot of rumors about this city and knew that it was very rich and prosperous.

Before coming here, it could be said that he had many dreams, hoping that one day he would be able to return home in glory.

However, when they arrived at their destination, they discovered that the city had been reduced to ruins, and hundreds of thousands of people had lost their souls.

Compared to the caravan members and the mortals who were visiting their relatives and friends, er Gou’s luck was actually pretty good. At the very least, he managed to walk out of ghost city alive.

After leaving the ghost city, the two of them headed towards ergou’s hometown and then to the Heaven’s Wall city.

The road they were on was the main road laid between major cities. The road was constantly tamped with loess, and it was about six feet wide.

To put it bluntly, it was more than two meters wide, barely enough for a car to walk on. Both sides of the road were either overgrown grass or forests.

In a world with low productivity, it was normal for such roads to appear. If one wanted a better road, they had to go to a bigger city.

Perhaps it was because of the recent drought, but the road had become very hard. When the horned beasts stepped on some places, there was a clanging sound of metal and stone colliding.

Tang Zhen, who was used to teleporting, was really not used to riding on the horned beast that was not too fast.

However, there was no use in being anxious. He could only be patient and slowly move forward along the long road.

After he got used to this speed, Tang Zhen suddenly realized that this feeling was actually quite good.

Walking slowly among the mountains and rivers, smiling at the changes of the secular world, letting go of fame and fortune temporarily, learning to be a carefree immortal in the mortal world.

After getting used to fighting and killing, one would realize that a peaceful environment was actually very good when they suddenly calmed down.

At the very least, he didn’t need to be on edge all the time, worried about an enemy attack, and then constantly hover between life and death because of the mission.

The higher one’s strength was, the more obvious this feeling was.

As his super strength was sealed, he always felt that there were many inconveniences, as if he was as weak as a baby.

He no longer had an undying body. Perhaps a ferocious beast from the mountains or a giant venomous snake from the rivers could easily eliminate him.

His originally condescending attitude had suddenly suffered a serious blow, and his reverence for everything in the world slowly reappeared in his heart.

For the powerful cultivators of loucheng, this was a real journey of heart-tempering, allowing them to stabilize their Dao heart again.

Regardless of whether this was the original intention of the cornerstone platform, it did have such an effect. He believed that as long as he persisted, this trip would definitely not be in vain.

On the other hand, Tang Zhen was enjoying himself. However, er Gou was feeling a little uneasy. He would always secretly glance at Tang Zhen with a hint of hesitation on his face.

Tang Zhen clearly knew in his heart that er Gou was eager to learn, but he didn’t know how to start.

He had thoughts in his mind but did not know how to hide it. Tang Zhen saw through it with a glance.

Therefore, when night fell again, Tang Zhen called er Gou over and demonstrated a set of knife skills for him. He practiced it three times.

On one hand, it was to teach ergou, and on the other hand, it was to practice again. Who knew when they would fight the enemy again?

To a beginner like ergou, practicing with a saber was the wisest choice.

This set of saber technique was swift and fierce, and it didn’t need too many fancy twists and turns. As long as one cultivated it diligently, he could obtain good results in a short time.

When used together with a special shield, the power of both attack and defense was amazing. It was definitely a rare and excellent martial technique.

In fact, this was the basic saber technique of the sacred Dragon Warzone. Every young cultivator had to learn it, and they had to practice it to the advanced level.

Tang Zhen didn’t teach ergou half-heartedly because it could be considered a rare technique in this world.

After seeing Tang Zhen’s demonstration, ergou was overjoyed and hurriedly learned to practice.

Although he was illiterate and had a rather slippery personality, he would never be perfunctory about his goals.

He had actually memorized most of the blade technique that Tang Zhen had demonstrated. Such talent was quite good.

Tang Zhen’s interest was piqued. He wanted to see just what kind of person he would be able to learn and kill some time.

This matter was not urgent, so he told ergou to start a fire and cook first. He would talk about other things after he had filled his stomach.

Buttface was obviously too excited. His hands and feet were trembling, and he almost knocked over the pot while cooking.

Tang Zhen shook his head when he saw this. He could tell with a single glance that ergou was not in the mood to cook.

His mind was probably filled with those saber techniques, trying to figure out how to execute them smoothly.

“You can go and sit at the side. I’ll make dinner.”

Tang Zhen said in a soft voice. He took the bag of rice from er Gou’s hands and opened it to take a look.

It was a kind of starch-like thing. After being wet with water, it would be rolled into a ball and then cooked in hot water.

If the taste wasn’t good, he could add other food to make it taste better.

It was obvious that Buttface’s soul had left his body. He didn’t reject Tang Zhen’s request to cook for him.

After passing the bag to Tang Zhen, he picked up the Battle Sword on the side and kept gesturing with it. From time to time, a surprised and confused expression flashed on his face.

Tang Zhen was not in a hurry to cook. Instead, he walked to the bamboo forest beside him and chopped a thin and long bamboo pole.

After splitting the end of the bamboo pole into a fork, Tang Zhen slowly walked to the river in the distance and quietly watched the river flow.

Like a statue, he didn’t move.

After waiting for a few minutes, Tang Zhen suddenly made a move. The slender bamboo pole pierced the grass by the river like lightning.

The sound of water splashing could be heard as the bamboo pole entered the water. The waves rolled and then, Tang Zhen flicked upwards and a big black fish was directly lifted out of the water.

“Pa da!”

The big fish landed on the grass and kept wriggling its body, looking fierce.

Tang Zhen, however, smiled and walked over. He knocked out this large black fish and extended his hand to touch it a few times.

This should be a carnivorous fish. The meat was firm and thick, and it was definitely an ideal ingredient.

He did not know if it was an illusion, but Tang Zhen actually had a feeling of drooling. He could not wait to taste the deliciousness of this river fish.

However, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he picked up some fresh seaweed with a bamboo stick and found some plants by the river. Then, he slowly returned to his resting place.

When they were about to reach the campsite, they discovered that there was another group of people stopping nearby. It was obvious that they were also going to set up camp.

Tang Zhen took a glance but did not pay too much attention to it.

In the wilderness, if they had a choice, it was best to gather in a place with more people. That way, they would not have to worry about being attacked by wild beasts.

Even some bandits would be wary and would not dare to provoke an attack.

Of course, out of basic vigilance, they would maintain a certain distance from each other, and even deploy some vigilance measures.

After those people saw Tang Zhen, they didn’t pay too much attention to him. After all, he and ergou were just two people.

It was the big fish in his hand that attracted the attention of the tourists, and there was a trace of envy in their eyes.

Buttface was sitting on a rock, holding the saber in his arms and staring straight ahead.

He seemed to be on high alert, but in reality, from the moment those people appeared to the moment Tang Zhen returned from fishing, he had not sensed anything.

When Tang Zhen saw this scene, he was a little surprised in his heart. Could it be that this er Gou was a good seedling for cultivation?

This state of his was a natural talent. If his brain was better, then his advantage in comprehending martial arts techniques was almost unparalleled.

It was a pity that he was not born in the Holy Dragon Warzone. Otherwise, with this learning attitude alone, he was destined to not be unknown.
