2006 Recruiting soldiers and buying horses Part 1
Tang Zhen was about to turn around and leave after keeping the ten over certificates. He did not wish to stay any longer in such a filthy environment.
When desire was magnified and released, it would become extremely ugly. Everything in this room was proof of this.
When he turned around, he saw a group of people standing behind him. They were the women who had been imprisoned.
They were wearing the clothes that Tang Zhen had given them. There was a trace of gratitude on their faces. Although there was still fear in their eyes, it was not as obvious as it was earlier.
“I said you can leave, so why are you still here?”
Tang Zhen’s eyes swept over those women as he asked in a faint tone.
When the women heard this, they looked at each other and finally looked at the woman in the lead.
since you’ve appeared here, I’m sure the evil people who imprisoned us have been killed. You’ve helped us escape from this sea of suffering, so please accept our respects!
The leading woman said. As soon as she finished speaking, the other women around her knelt down and saluted.
“You’re welcome. Saving you was just something I did in passing. You don’t deserve such a big gift.”
Tang Zhen shook his head. At the same time, he turned around and walked out.
“Your Excellency, please wait a moment!”
Tang Zhen stopped his footsteps when he heard the greeting behind him. He turned his head and looked at the lady who was talking to him.
Her appearance was somewhat similar to Xiao Wu’s, clearly of the same race.
“What else did you call me for?”
Seeing that Tang Zhen had stopped, the woman in the lead once again bowed to him. After which, she used a clear and cold voice to say,”To be honest, we really have nowhere to go in the city of despair.
If you don’t mind us, can you take us in? whether it’s warming our beds or going to war, we can do whatever others can do!”
All the women looked at Tang Zhen at the same time. Their miserable faces were filled with a trace of anticipation.
Entering the city of despair meant that he was in a desperate situation. If he wanted to live, he had to force himself to do something that he couldn’t do before.
These women were very clear that it was very difficult for them to survive in the harsh environment of the city of despair alone. Therefore, they took the initiative to ask to seek shelter with Tang Zhen.
This was also forced by the situation. Even if he did not know what kind of person Tang Zhen was, he could only take a gamble.
Tang Zhen’s eyes swept over the faces. All he saw were misery and loss. It was as though he did not know where the path was.
Their current appearance was the most common posture of the weak, appearing weak and easy to bully.
Tang Zhen didn’t look down on the thoughts of these women. Among the cultivators he knew, there were many outstanding women. They weren’t inferior to men in all aspects.
After thinking for a while, he said,”after following me, fighting is inevitable. You might lose your life at any time.”
I need you to tell me, under such circumstances, will you still choose to follow me?”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the woman in the lead revealed a miserable smile and sighed softly,”In the city of despair, death is a common thing. It’s unavoidable.
However, if he struggled, he might be able to live longer.
Since there’s a possibility of survival, no one is willing to die, so we will definitely follow you.
Even if I have to go through fire and water, I won’t hesitate!”
Since the other party had said so, Tang Zhen did not have any reason to refuse. Moreover, he had already planned to recruit and buy troops.
“Since that’s the case, come out with me,”
Tang Zhen turned around and walked out. A group of women followed behind him and quickly arrived at the middle of the street.
What they saw was a sea of blood and corpses all over the ground. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
They had heard the sounds of fighting earlier and knew that a great battle was happening outside. However, they did not expect the scene to be so tragic.
Tang Zhen saw Xiao Wu standing to the side and waved his hand at her, indicating for the other party to come over.
When Xiao Wu, who was currently helping to treat the injured, saw this, she immediately ran over and asked Tang Zhen what instructions he had.
I’ll leave these people to you. Teach them how to use the magically modified pistol. It might be useful in the future.
Of course, your main task is to be responsible for logistics and treating the wounded. You may not really go to the battlefield to fight.”
Xiao Wu nodded her head in agreement. She turned her head to look at the women behind Tang Zhen. When her gaze fell on the woman who had been conversing with Tang Zhen earlier, her brows suddenly furrowed slightly.
That woman similarly looked unblinkingly at Xiao Wu, her eyes showing a trace of surprise, but even more confusion.
“May I ask if I’ve seen you before?”
Xiao Wu asked after seriously looking at the woman a few times, her eyes filled with anticipation.
The woman opposite her shook her head, indicating she had never seen Xiao Wu before, but why did she always have a feeling of deja vu?
Tang Zhen, who was standing at the side, suddenly opened his mouth and asked, you’ve never seen each other here, but there’s a sense of deja vu. The only explanation is that you’ve already known each other before you entered the city of despair.
When Xiao Wu and the woman heard this, they revealed a look of realization. It seemed that this was the case.
However, it was also because of this that they were even more troubled.
It seemed very familiar, but he couldn’t remember who it was. This feeling really made him feel helpless.
Tang Zhen, however, had an epiphany in his heart. At this moment, he was also pondering whether he had entered the city of despair alone.
Or did he enter with his companions, but an accident happened midway and he was separated in different places?
Tang Zhen was very clear that it was impossible for him to think of anything useful just by thinking hard.
Only meeting familiar people like Xiao Wu could trigger the relevant memories. If they never met, then they couldn’t remember.
Although Tang Zhen had to figure out why he had come to the city of despair, he also understood that he could not force things.
Everything had to be done naturally. When it was time to know, he would naturally know.
According to the dwarf, the street he was in was only the most basic starting point.
The real secret was hidden in the high-class block ahead. Perhaps after entering there, the things he wanted to know would naturally appear.
After handing these women over to Xiao Wu to arrange, Tang Zhen ordered people to bring the injured into the room to rest. Soon after, he called over a despairing person.
“Take a few people with you and spread the news around the street. Tell those despairing people that we’re recruiting.
As long as you follow us, you won’t have to go hungry, and you’ll have a chance to get armor and weapons. At the same time, you’ll have the right to live in a house at night.”
At this moment, the dwarf’s subordinates had all begun to follow Tang Zhen’s lead, so they immediately nodded in agreement after hearing his orders.
After calling for more than a dozen of their companions, they immediately shouted along the street they came from, trying to make the surrounding despairing people hear it.
The big battle earlier had long attracted many onlookers. Their hearts were extremely shocked when they saw the one-sided massacre by Tang Zhen’s group.
This was the first time they had seen such a bloody and cruel scene in the city of despair. The terrifying destructive power of the magically modified pistol made them wonder if there was any meaning in close combat.
If Tang Zhen and the others could continue to use their magically modified pistols, then there might not be any gang that could be their match in this Street.
If he could become their partner, it would be something to be envious of. At least he wouldn’t have to worry about being bullied again.
Just as they were pondering how they could join Tang Zhen’s group, they suddenly heard shouts coming from the street.
Joy immediately appeared on the faces of these despairing people when they heard this. Soon after, they rushed out from the streets without any hesitation and headed straight towards the location of Tang Zhen and the others.
If they continued to hesitate after encountering such an opportunity, they would deserve to be eliminated.
