Chapter 412: Chui Nan City



Chuinan City is a small city in the southeast of the Tiandou Empire.

This place is some distance away from Hanhai City. The area around the city is barren and there are not many people living here.

When the carriage reached the top of a bare mountain, the outline of Chuinan City could be clearly seen from afar.

"This city is actually located in a valley. How are they going to communicate with the outside world?" Bai Chenxiang flew out of the car, looked at the city in the distance, and couldn't help muttering.

Qi Tian and others got off the carriage.

"For ordinary people, they may not leave the place where they were born in their entire lives, so your worries are unnecessary." Qi Tian responded.

Just like the villagers of Holy Soul Village, over the years, except for him and Tang San and his son who left Holy Soul Village, the other villagers at most went to Notting City near the village to do some business. Cities that were a little further away were not something they could enter.

After all, ordinary people need to pay a toll of one gold soul coin to enter the city.

One gold soul coin is enough for a family of three to eat for several months, so how could it be spent easily? In cities near the place of birth, as long as the corresponding household registration certificate is presented, there will be no charge.

"Except for soul masters, ordinary people who go to visit relatives in a farther city need a pass from the City Lord's Mansion, otherwise they cannot leave their registered place of residence." A Fei added.

Feng Xiaotian, who had been silent the whole time, could not help but say at this moment: "I can sense a faint smell of blood in the air. Someone must have died nearby."

"Wolf Thieves are soul beasts that hide during the day and come out at night. Xiaotian, do you smell a strong bloody smell?" Qi Tian couldn't help but ask.

Feng Xiaotian shook his head. "It's too far away. I can't sense it. But do you think that this Chuinan City is too quiet?"

Qi Tian raised his eyebrows, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and his gaze turned towards the distant Southern City.

Although no buildings in the city were damaged, there were almost no people walking on the streets. On the city walls, there were guards holding weapons and laborers holding various farm tools.

"It seems that the Wolf Bandits have already carried out an attack near Chuinan City. The city has entered a state of emergency, and many of them are guarding the city walls."

Feng Xiaotian curled his lips, "Isn't this attracting wolf thieves?"

"According to the family's records, wolf bandits rarely attack sparsely populated areas. They only attack densely populated areas. These people are standing on the city wall. Once the wolf bandits discover them, they will definitely come here to attack."

Qi Tian and the others looked at each other and said, "We have to hurry into the city."

If we don't enter the city now, I'm afraid the entire Chuinan City will fall after dark.

……

There are steep slopes and dangerous areas everywhere near the mountains and forests, and horse-drawn carriages can no longer pass through here.

Qi Tian and his group got off the car and walked, but they did not head towards Chuinan City first. Instead, they followed Feng Xiaotian and came to a village.

This is an unnamed village. The facilities within the village have been severely damaged, and the wooden and thatched houses are dilapidated and collapsed.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

"This village was attacked not long ago." Qi Tian walked to a collapsed house and saw that there was not much dust on the ruins, so he couldn't help but analyze.

Dried bloodstains were everywhere on the ground in the village, and apart from some broken limbs, no complete bodies were found.

"The bodies should have been taken away by wolf bandits, and these villagers were treated as food by them." Feng Xiaotian said with a grim expression.

"Damn these guys." Ah Fei angrily punched the broken wall beside him.

There are more than one hundred houses in this village. Assuming there are three people in each household, there are more than five hundred people in the village.

How can Qi Tian and his group remain calm when so many people died?

"Look around, maybe there are survivors." Qi Tian said in a deep voice.

Then, he continued to overturn the collapsed houses, trying to find a survivor.

But after half an hour, they didn't find a single living person. However, they found the footprints of the wolf bandits on the ground, and judging from the number, they quickly determined the size of this group of wolf bandits.

"It's a team of a hundred wolf bandits. I don't know if this is just one of their forces, or all of them." Qi Tian murmured.

If there were only a few hundred wolf bandits, it would be much easier to clear them out; but if they were just a small force within the wolf bandit group, it would be a big trouble.

"There are no survivors on my side." Huo Wushuang said regretfully.

"I don't have one here either."

The entire village was searched, but no survivors were found.

Qi Tian and his companions were in a bad mood. They left the village and headed towards Chuinan City.

……

The guards on Chuinan City were in low spirits, and their arms holding their weapons could not help but tremble.

"Captain, there's someone there."

When the captain of the guard heard the sound, he quickly looked into the distance.

The people who came were Qi Tian and his group, but because the distance was too far, he could not see their appearance clearly.

"I heard that wolf thieves are extremely intelligent, and some of them even wear human skins to commit crimes." Muttering softly, the captain of the guard looked into the distance.

The sun was setting at this time, and as the Wolf Bandits were soul beasts that hibernate during the day and come out at night, now was the time for them to wake up.

The captain of the guards was nervous and quickly ordered: "Everyone be on guard. Once they enter the range of the bows and arrows, shoot them immediately."

After guarding Chuinan City for a long time, everyone's nerves were on high alert. When a stranger appeared at this time, the guard captain and many guards instinctively thought that they were wolf thieves in human skins.

For a moment, the guards on the entire city wall were so nervous that their hearts were in their throats.

The laborers they conscripted stood behind the city gate, holding their own farm tools.

Once the wolf bandits break through the city gate, they will be the city’s first line of defense and also cannon fodder.

Although the truth is cruel, there is no other way to deal with it in order to prevent the city from falling.

The city's guards were definitely stronger than the conscripted civilians. Only when the civilians consumed the wolf bandits' strength would the guards have a chance to kill them.

……

As Qi Tian and others approached, they gradually discovered clues.

"What are these city guards doing? They hid when they saw us coming." Ah Fei couldn't help but feel curious.

Qi Tian slowed down his pace, "No, they are not afraid of us, but they are wary of us."

Before the battle, having people patrolling the city walls would deter the enemy.

But in wartime, every guard had to return to his post. If they all stayed on the city wall, it would be a mess.

"So, they regard us as enemies?"

Before anyone could figure out what was going on, the guards on the city wall drew their bows and strung them.

A round of arrows were fired at once, and a rain of arrows came towards Qi Tian and his group.

"Damn, you guessed it right." Feng Xiaotian complained and quickly opened the Gale Field.
