2599 Cleansing wind city is actively moving forward (1)
He followed the patrol team and met several groups of cultivators on the way, all of whom were heading in the direction of the ruins.
Seeing their hurried appearance, something must have happened, otherwise they wouldn’t be in this state.
The patrolmen discussed animatedly. After they went around a forest, cleansing wind city finally appeared in front of them.
The city wall was nearly 15 meters high, and it was covered with all kinds of city defense weapons. From the looks of it, they were the handiwork of the cultivators in loucheng city.
As for the guards on the city wall, one-tenth of them were cultivators, and they were in charge of controlling the city defense weapons.
Unlike the Heaven’s Wall city, which had natural barriers, cleansing wind city’s surroundings were all flat plains, and there was no danger to rely on.
Just like other cities, the trees around cleansing wind city had been cleared, leaving behind only fields of crops.
The square at the city gate was very lively. Many residents set up stalls here to sell food and daily necessities.
There were residents going in and out of the city gate, most of whom were ordinary residents. They packed their daily supplies in bamboo baskets and hurried home.
Such a large-scale market naturally could not be formed by the citizens, but a temporary trading place set up by the government.
The purpose of this was to better control the city. If they lost the supply of food, the entire city would immediately collapse.
Therefore, they decided to unify the management and control the sales price to prevent people from taking the opportunity to raise the price.
What made Tang Zhen curious was that other than food like grains and fruits, there was actually a rather large slaughterhouse at the edge of this market.
The ferocious monsters were dragged here and then skinned, boned, and further detoxified.
The so-called ” detoxification ” was actually the demonic Qi contained in the monster’s flesh. Once it entered the body, it would cause serious damage.
Cleansing wind city used a special runic magic circle to get rid of the demonic Qi in the monster’s flesh. Then, the meat was cooked and sold to the residents.
This kind of high-quality and delicious food was very popular, but not everyone could get it. Only cultivators at home could get it.
It wasn’t just the processed meat. There were also many daily necessities that were sold to cultivators and their families at a discounted price.
It was for this reason that the residents of cleansing wind city were very enthusiastic about becoming cultivators. Many residents were waiting in line, hoping to get the opportunity to go to the ruins as soon as possible.
The cultivators in loucheng had made the residents of cleansing wind city take the initiative and work hard to become stronger. Then, they would enjoy a safer and better life.
In addition, there was a series of measures that were smoothly implemented in cleansing wind city, all of which were done by the cultivators in the fourth battle area.
After Tang Zhen understood this, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. The 4th battle area really had talents.
The more outstanding the other party’s performance was, the higher the threat they would pose to the fifth battle area. Cultivators like them would become Tang Zhen’s primary hunting targets.
Just as they were about to enter the city, Tang Zhen was led by the big-bearded man to the recording officer to register his personal information and receive his identity card.
After a simple registration, Zhen Tang became a member of cleansing wind city. He had to regularly complete patrol and monster clearing missions.
At the same time, he could also use his identity card to get a residence in cleansing wind city, receive free food and so on every day, and there were more than a dozen benefits in total.
Tang Zhen wasn’t interested in these benefits. He just wanted to find the target as soon as possible, complete the assassination, and leave cleansing wind city.
However, this kind of thing couldn’t be rushed. In a situation where he didn’t know anything about the target, he still needed to be patient and wait.
Not to mention that the enemy he was facing was an elite cultivator from the fourth battle area. If he thought that he could do whatever he wanted with his level advantage, he would definitely reap what he sowed.
Tang Zhen’s current situation was as though his bound hands had been released. After which, he killed a group of strong men with their hands bound.
It seemed that they had the advantage, but in fact, if they really fought with their lives, this group of strong men with their hands tied could still kill him in many ways!
He was a master of creation, so his target might not be weak. In fact, his level might even be far higher than his.
He might even be like you Jiu, a genuine nine-star divine general, just one step away from becoming a Divine King.
It was better to be safe than sorry. In the face of an unknown enemy, it was better to be as cautious as possible.
After Tang Zhen applied for the identity card, the big bearded man led him to see the house, appearing very enthusiastic.
No matter what the other party’s purpose was, Tang Zhen did not refuse. Hence, he followed the big-bearded man and strolled around cleansing wind city.
Because of the monster outbreak, the streets of the city were a little deserted, but there was no panic.
Perhaps it was because the merchants were gathered outside the city, but the streets of the city were very clean. Other than a few residents, there were only the occasional patrol.
As for livestock, they were raised in a concentrated manner at the edge of the city.
Firstly, it was to improve the efficiency of breeding, and secondly, it was to prevent these things from being infected by the demon Qi and causing chaos in the city.
If there was a mutation, the cultivators would immediately kill it so that it would not threaten the safety of the city.
From time to time, there were signs and pictures on the walls of the street. There were words of encouragement on them, as well as some knowledge about self-rescue.
In some of the more spacious areas on the side of the street, wooden targets and strawmen had been set up. There were also swords, Spears, bows, and arrows.
With a professional in charge of guiding them, the residents could learn and train at any time, thus obtaining a certain level of self-protection ability.
In these training grounds, there were also some introductions about monsters. Not only were there images of monsters drawn on the large animal skins, but there were also some fatal vital areas.
According to the trainer, these monsters weren’t actually scary. They were the pass for mortals to become cultivators and delicious food.
Regardless of whether this statement was correct or not, at least in the hearts of the residents of cleansing wind city, monsters that could be killed and treated as food were not that scary.
To be able to do this was actually very brilliant.
Because they weren’t affected by fear, the residents of cleansing wind city were in a good mental state and always had a positive attitude.
Whether it was the ordinary Housewives or the young children, they all had a faint smile on their faces.
After walking on the streets for about 20 minutes, the two arrived at the city center and entered a three-story building.
Tang Zhen showed his identity card and quickly chose a residence at the edge of the city.
As for the residences in the central area, they had already been chosen by other cultivators. Basically, they were all foreign cultivators like Tang Zhen.
After Tang Zhen finished his selection, the official in charge of registration took the initiative to ask Tang Zhen if he needed to renovate the house. They could provide a full set of services.
It even provided a number of decoration plans, from simple to luxurious decoration styles, a total of more than a dozen options.
At the same time, Butler, servants, Coachmen, gardeners, and other service personnel could all be hired from them.
As for the funds needed for the renovation, the city Lord’s mansion could pay for it. Tang Zhen only needed to slowly repay the debt after killing the monsters.
Looking at the map that the official took out, Tang Zhen’s face was full of surprise. He secretly thought that this cultivator Lou Cheng of the 4th battle area was really a talent.
If it was a cultivator who had not seen much of the world and suddenly had extraordinary power, he would probably not be able to resist these temptations.
He had just joined cleansing wind city, and he already owed a large sum of money. In the following days, he would have to continuously earn money to pay off his debts.
