Luoying Town is under the jurisdiction of Luofeng City. It is located to the east of Luofeng City, more than 30 miles away.
Outside the town, pedestrians entered the town in a disorderly manner.
The guard at the town gate leaned lazily on the low wall that served as the town gate, not even looking at the passers-by.
This is just a small town, and the guards are mostly townspeople, some of whom are not even warriors.
This place is adjacent to Luofeng City, where the Embroidered Uniform Guards are stationed. No one would think that anyone would dare to come here to cause trouble.
In order to save money, the garrison hired ordinary people to guard the gate and did not recruit warriors to be stationed there.
Among the crowd, Lin Fan was wearing a coarse cloth shirt, with a long sword wrapped in cloth strips and carried on his back, and a tattered bamboo hat on his head.
Lin Fan got this outfit from a commoner in exchange for his big horse when he was about to reach the town.
After getting over the initial impulse, Lin Fan calmed down.
I can't just enter Luoying Town like this.
Both the man and the horse were covered in blood, and they were too big a target. If Xu Bashan came to kill him, it would be fine, but if he received the news and fled with his sister, then his clues would be completely cut off.
Lin Fan actually knew Xu Bashan very well.
This man is obsessed with fame and fortune, but not with women. Lin Fan still doesn't understand why Xu Bashan took Lin Yao away.
Where is he taking Lin Yao?
If it was just for revenge, there was no need to take Lin Yao away from Luofeng City.
But no matter what, I must find my sister as soon as possible. She is my only relative and I must not let her come to any harm.
After entering the town, Lin Fan asked for directions and headed straight towards the garrison.
…
Inside the garrison.
Xu Bashan sipped his fragrant tea. Beside him, a middle-aged man in a low-rank official robe said with a flattering expression, "Congratulations, Captain! This time, the one who has come is a trusted confidant of that person. Since he said that person will definitely be satisfied, then Captain... you are not far from the position of Thousand Household Member!"
"hehe."
Xu Bashan grinned, and slowly, it turned into a loud laugh: "Haha..."
Thousand households.
The Captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard is a real figure.
A centurion like him is actually still on the fringe of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards were, after all, the emperor's personal guards.
He should have been guarding the emperor or supervising the officials in the imperial city, but he could only guard a small city like Luofeng City.
But now, there is a chance to be transferred to the royal city.
Although it was not an imperial city, but just a prince's capital, Xu Bashan was still extremely happy.
That person controls the entire Eastern Region.
In the Eastern Region, he is the sky.
Except for those hidden immortal sects, the entire Eastern Region is shrouded in his power.
The Eastern Region is actually not very big compared to the Southern Wilderness.
But compared to the small Luofeng City, it is like a sesame-covered pancake.
Xu Bashan is only at the third level of Bone Tempering, and is not considered a strong warrior, but he is already the best master in Luofeng City.
As long as he went to the royal city, he would have the opportunity to continue on the path of martial arts. As long as he could catch that person's eye, being innate was not a dream at all.
"It's a pity that we have to wait two or three years..."
Xu Bashan suddenly sighed, with helplessness in his eyes.
The middle-aged man standing by knew what Xu Bashan was talking about. He curled his lips, feeling a deep sense of jealousy in his heart.
Still not satisfied?
Do you still want to show the value of that little girl as soon as possible?
It's really like a snake swallowing an elephant.
"My lord, too much is too much!"
Despite cursing inwardly, the middle-aged man maintained a smile on his face and bowed, saying, "The little girl is only twelve years old, yet she's already so exquisite. Won't she be even more charming when she's fourteen and a half?"
"Once you satisfy that satisfied person with a feast, your status will only rise! Think about it, things that are easily obtained are not cherished. Only when a certain price is paid will they become more valuable. Waiting is necessary."
Xu Bashan nodded, with a smile on his face.
You are right.
That person has some unique hobby. If he is allowed to wait for two years, he might cherish it more, and by then, his contribution will be greater.
The middle-aged man also saw the joy in Xu Bashan's heart. He rolled his eyes and said softly, "Captain, since Lin Fan's position as a captain has been stripped, why not..."
Xu Bashan narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "Wang Huancheng, what's the matter? You want to be on equal footing with me so soon?"
Plop.
Wang Huancheng immediately knelt on the ground and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, sir, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant! I just thought that Lin Fan's position as a centurion would be watched by many generals. I just want to leave this run-down place, Luoying Town, and go to Luofeng City to be a general."
Xu Bashan stared straight at Wang Huancheng.
Wang Huancheng had a flattering look on his face, but he was already nervous inside.
Could it be that... Xu Bashan doesn't even want to give such a small benefit?
Damn it!
"A general flag is not impossible!"
After a moment, Xu Bashan said in a deep voice: "If you hadn't informed that lord in time to look for someone nearby for His Highness, I wouldn't have been able to achieve this achievement..."
"How about this? Zhou Xuanyi's bone forging ability was abolished by Lin Fan, so he can no longer serve as the general flag bearer. Once you get a reply from above, you will take his position..."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you very much, sir!"
Wang Huancheng looked overjoyed and kowtowed in thanks.
"who?"
At this moment, Xu Bashan's face suddenly changed and he shouted at the outside of the door.
Wang Huancheng jumped up and rushed out instantly.
Buzz!
Light shone on his arms, and a powerful bone-strengthening force emerged.
The guardian of Luoying Town is actually a warrior of the second level of bone forging.
Swish.
The sword flashed, and a hint of cold murderous intent emerged.
Wang Huancheng quickly withdrew and retreated to Xu Bashan's side.
The sword light made him feel a strong sense of crisis.
Xu Bashan had also stood up from his chair, his face solemn as he shouted in a low voice, "Lin Fan?!"
Snap!
Footsteps were heard and a young man walked in.
The young man held a sword in his right hand, his eyes were covered with black cloth, and his face was covered with frost.
"Xu Bashan, Yao'er, where are you?"
Lin Fan turned towards Xu Bashan, his voice filled with coldness.
Judging from the time the carriage took to go back and forth, it is not difficult to determine that Xu Bashan's destination is Luoying Town.
He had intended to ask the town guard about this matter, but unexpectedly, he ran into the two of them discussing their dirty deeds...
