Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

In a valley fifteen miles southeast of Heyuan Village, smoke was rising from cooking fires and more than twenty people were sitting together.

"Brother! The food and wine you brought back are not enough!"

A big man in a red jacket with tight wrists complained.

Upon hearing this, the one-eyed man sealed the wine bag in his hand and threw it over.

"There are only eight of us going to Qingshi Town this time, and we don't have much money with us, so you can just make do with what you have to fill your stomach."

"Eat well and have a good rest to get enough energy. Let's go into the city tomorrow!"

"You can eat whatever you want then!"

Hearing the one-eyed man's words, everyone around him burst into laughter and cheered.

And behind the ridge fifty meters away, two branches swayed slightly and slowly disappeared behind the bluestone.

"You know what, these two sparse branches really don't arouse suspicion!"

Lying on the ground, Zuo Yunfeng looked at the branch in his hand with interest and said.

"That's natural!"

Lu You threw the branch aside and said with a smile.

"According to the plot in the TV series, as long as you hold the branches in front of you, the other party will never be able to detect you even if they are within five meters."

"TV series? Five meters?" Zuo Yunfeng looked at Lu You in confusion: "What does that mean?"

amount……

Lu You hesitated for a moment, then changed the subject.

"I just counted and there are 25 in total. Are you sure?"

"It's hard to say!" Zuo Yunfeng replied casually.

Ok?

Lu You stared at Zuo Yunfeng with eyes wide open.

"Aren't you a martial artist? You always look so cool every time you appear on stage. I thought you were so powerful!"

"If you can't even beat these 25 people, what kind of hero are you?"

Hearing Lu You's words, Zuo Yunfeng's face suddenly turned red.

"It's true that I'm a martial artist, but this is my first time escaping from home, and I've never killed anyone before!"

Lu You: “…”

Looking at Zuo Yunfeng's indignant expression, Lu You felt a headache coming on.

After receiving the mission that might get him killed, Lu You started to plot against the 'young hero' in front of him.

Who would have thought that this guy is actually a novice like me!

What the hell is this?

"No... Young Master Zuo..."

"Don't you, the children of a big family, have any bottom line when you go out to make a living?" Lu You asked speechlessly.

"Of course!" Zuo Yunfeng said as a matter of course: "Generally, one must follow the elders of the family for two years and become familiar with the world before being able to venture out on one's own."

"Then why did you run out alone?"

"I feel that being protected by elders is meaningless..."

As Zuo Yunfeng was speaking, he suddenly turned around and looked at Lu You.

"Eh? How do you know I'm a disciple of a big clan?"

Facing Zuo Yunfeng's clear eyes that looked like a college student, Lu You held his forehead with his hand.

He knew for sure that Zuo Yunfeng was a scion of a prominent family because when he was fighting with Wu Quanwen, the other party recognized that he was copying the Zuo family boxing style from Liangzhou.

Wu Quanwen is a prince, and the Zuo family is obviously extraordinary since he recognized them.

But these still cannot be said!

He casually pointed at the clothes and shoes on Zuo Yunfeng.

"Master Zuo, you are dressed so ostentatiously. Not to mention me, even a three-year-old child on the street can tell at a glance that you are from a wealthy family, right?"

Zuo Yunfeng looked down at the finely embroidered brocade clothes on his body and wanted to refute but finally remained silent.

The two were silent for a long time, and finally Lu You broke the silence.

"How many can you hit?"

"what?"

Zuo Yunfeng replied subconsciously, turned around and lay on the ridge, then stuck his head out to check again.

"My second uncle said that my internal energy is now perfect. As long as I don't meet a master of internal energy, there should be few people who can beat me."

Hearing Zuo Yunfeng's words, Lu You frowned.

"Then what are you afraid of?"

As for the classification of martial arts, Lu You had also seen it in the Zuojiaquan style that he copied.

The classification of martial artists in this world is not as complicated as in the novels I have read before.

From bottom to top, it is divided into only five major realms: external strength, internal strength, transforming strength, innate, and heaven.

The barriers between these realms are also very vague. You can't tell any difference just from the outside, and you need to fight to be sure.

However, Zuo Yunfeng was able to perfect his internal strength at such a young age, which clearly shows his talent in martial arts.

"Those soldiers and bandits all practiced external martial arts, and at most they cultivated internal strength. You are one level stronger than them, so can't you kill them easily?"

Looking at Zuo Yunfeng's conflicted look, Lu You couldn't help but ask again.

But Zuo Yunfeng frowned and shook his head again.

"Those people below are all wearing red coats, with a piece of black iron mail thrown on the ground. From their clothing, we can basically confirm that they are border troops who defected from Xijiang Prefecture."

"If I pick out three or five of them, I can definitely kill them easily."

"But now there are more than 20 people equipped with bows and crossbows. In addition, they have been fighting on the line of life and death for many years, so they are very good at cooperation."

"Even if I am one realm higher than them, if I am surrounded by them, I am not sure if I can defeat them!"

After hearing what Zuo Yunfeng said, Lu You was also in a dilemma.

Although he copied the essence of Zuo family boxing, it was just a copy after all, and he did not practice it for many years.

Even with the help of the Da Li Pill, he could at best be considered an external force martial artist.

It can be said that it is of no help at all in this battle against bandits.

Looking at the blue light screen in front of him, Lu You asked himself again.

'Is this mission just to avenge Lu Dejin and kill the murderer?'

'Or do we need to eliminate all the soldiers and bandits?'

The system is still silent...

Looking at the word "Eliminate" at the end of the mission, Lu You covered his face with his hands.

She knew that the system would not allow her to find any loopholes in this mission.

After completing the mission, you will obtain your own space, completely merge with your original body, and officially start your journey to another world.

Mission failed, die!

If the judgment rules are unclear, it means that if you want to save your life, you have no choice but to kill all the soldiers and bandits.

No other choice?

"What if I help you lead them away?"

Lu You took a deep breath, turned around and said to Zuo Yunfeng beside him.

"I'll help you lead them away and disperse them. How confident are you that you can kill them all?"

Zuo Yunfeng stared intently at the skinny Luyou in front of him.

"As long as they can't surround me, I'm sure I can kill them all!"

Hearing Zuo Yunfeng's words, Lu You felt a little relieved.

"In that case, I will be the bait and lead them away. You find the opportunity to take action."

Having said that, Lu You was about to get up and leave, but Zuo Yunfeng reached out and grabbed his arm.

"That's not necessary, is it?"

Zuo Yunfeng said in a low voice.

"I'll watch them here, and you go back to Qingshi Town to report to the police. Isn't that safer than this method?"

But Lu You shook his head slightly.

"What if they run away after eating? I can't afford the risk!"
