Standing on Lingyuan's back and looking down, he found that there were already many monsters scattered in the Dapan Forest, including one-star, two-star, and three-star beasts. The number was three or four times more than when they came!

These monsters don't fight when they encounter each other, but run in the same direction!

General Zhao had a heavy expression on his face, "Has the beast tide in the gathering place already started?"

Otherwise, why would there be so many monsters in Dapan Forest?

Not only General Zhao, but others also feel this way.

Rong Yao stroked Ling Yuan's back with her hand, "Senior Ling Yuan, can you please hurry up? When we get to the gathering place, we will definitely reward you!"

Lingyuan, which was spreading its wings and flying, glanced back at Rong Yao. The next moment, its wings vibrated faster, forming a natural barrier above them. This barrier could isolate the airflow in the air.

When the barrier stabilized, Ling Yuan's speed suddenly accelerated. They could clearly feel that the current speed was about twice as fast as before!

After the elite team of the city defense army and family alliance went to the forest to explore.

In the gathering place, the city defense army and the family alliance are still secretly hoarding food.

Five or six days later, the city defense army quickly stocked up on food because they had cellars and the smoking and drying methods provided by Rong Yao.

It's the same here with the Shan family.

After Rong Yao and Xiao Mohan left, the five brothers of the Shan family went to the city defense army to test. Finally, the eldest brother of the Shan family, Shan Jing'an, and the second brother Shan Jingju, both entered the city defense army.

The remaining three brothers are not strong enough.

However, the three of them are not discouraged. The City Defense Force recruits people every year and retests them every year. They believe that after one year of hard training, they will still have a chance next year.

The eldest and second brothers of the Shan family all live in the city defense army camp and only have one day off per month to go home.

The Shan family's courtyard now houses the Shan family's old couple, three Shan family brothers and three cubs.

Every day, Little Xingxing gets up and exercises with her brothers, then has breakfast, practices calligraphy and reads.

In the afternoon, Xuanjing and Xuanhan went out with their grandfather or uncle, while Little Xingxing followed Fang Lanhua, looking after the house at home or going to the furniture shop to look at the store. Sometimes, Adjutant Zhao of the City Defense Army would come to pick up Little Xingxing and go to the City Defense Army to play for half a day.

In short, wherever the little star is, there seems to be more luck.

Every time Adjutant Zhao takes Little Xingxing out to hunt, he always gains something.

Fang Lanhua takes Little Xingxing to Shan's furniture shop, and the furniture shop's business will be particularly good that day.

During this period, the Shan family not only filled up the cellars in several of their own properties, but also filled up the small cellars in the homes of Sun Tianshuo and Yue Renhui.

After the city defense army and the family alliance stocked up for a period of time, they began to focus on spending manpower and material resources on strengthening the city wall.

Originally, the city wall had to be reinforced before winter every year, but this year the city defense army and the family alliance were particularly different.

After the city wall was reinforced for one layer, the two major forces were not satisfied and reinforced another layer. Not only that, they also raised the city wall and dug various traps and trenches not far from the city wall.

With such a commotion, even many ordinary orcs noticed the clues.

It is impossible for the city defense army and the family alliance to do this for no reason. This is a thankless task, but since it has been done, it only means that the crisis is coming!

Some orc families quickly began to stock up on more supplies. Not only did they stock up on materials, they also stocked up on weapons and herbs.

These are the orcs who live in the gathering place.

And the orcs living around the gathering place began to think of ways to buy houses in the gathering place.

The large, remote yard originally bought by a single family at a low price, in just a few days, the price doubled several times!

Just like that, there is still a price but no market.

Fang Lanhua sighed with her husband at home, "Fortunately, we couldn't let go of our daughter at that time and settled down in the gathering place. Otherwise, how could we afford the yard of the gathering place."

Everything is in order on the Shan family's side, but it's different on the Rong family's side.

Rong Jin and Rong Kun left the gathering place with the family alliance.

Rong Bingqian, his wife and their youngest son Rong Yu are the only ones left in the family.

The food and vegetables I brought to Daohua Village were all lost, so now I can only buy them with coins.

But they missed the best buying opportunity, and they didn't expect to go to the surrounding villages to buy cheap vegetables. During this period, even the best hunters in the gathering area couldn't catch prey, let alone Rong Bingqian and Rong Yu.

So, after ten days, the Rong family only had a sack of vegetables and a few rabbits that they finally shot.

In the end, Mrs. Rong had no choice but to shamelessly go to Xiao's house and ask for a few bags of vegetables and some dried meat.

The Rong family, who used to be extravagant in the past, suddenly cut back on food and clothing, and both Rong Bingqian and Mrs. Rong's faces turned sallow.

In order to reduce the family's expenses and food loss, the Rong family sent all their relatives and old servants back to their old house in Daohua Village. Only a pair of middle-aged servants were left to look after the entire yard.

On this day, Rong Bingqian was thinking about where to get more meat, when suddenly a servant came to report that someone was visiting.

Rong Bingqian frowned, he really couldn't think of anyone else coming to the Rong family at this time.

Because Mrs. Rong went to the Xiao family to get vegetables and dried meat, the Xiao family was not very willing to deal with the Rong family at the moment. There were really no familiar people in the Rong family in the gathering place.

When the servant brought the person into the hall, Rong Bingqian's already frowning frown became even tighter at this moment.

The person who came was not a stranger, but the village chief Yuan of Daohua Village.

Village Chief Yuan was leaning on a cane, followed by his two sons.

Rong Bingqian adjusted his expression and greeted him, "Village Chief Yuan, why are you here in person? Come on, sit down!"

Village Chief Yuan was helped by his two sons and sat aside.

Seeing Village Chief Yuan's gloomy expression, Rong Bingqian said: "Village Chief, Yuan Lin's ending is his own choice. I can't control it, and you can't blame me for this. Do you think so?"

Village Chief Yuan raised his head and looked at Rong Bingqian, and said in a cold voice, "Master Rong, I'm not here this time because of Yuan Lin's business."

"Then you..."

Village Chief Yuan looked at Rong Bingqian with his old eyes, "I'm here to make a deal with you."

Village Chief Yuan's words were beyond Rong Bingqian's expectation, "What kind of deal is this? Village Chief, please tell me directly."

Village Chief Yuan looked Rong Bingqian up and down and found that Rong Bingqian was even more embarrassed now than when he was in Daohua Village. He curled his lips and said, "I heard that Mr. Rong is short of vegetables and dried meat. I can provide these."

For Master Rong, just..."

Hearing what Village Chief Yuan said, Rong Bingqian's eyes were full of surprise. The food they had stored now was only enough for half a month, let alone to survive the beast tide. He asked anxiously: "What's the matter?"

?”

Seeing how anxious he was, Village Chief Yuan felt even more confident, "It's just that you have to give half of the yard where you live now to our Yuan family!"

Rong Bingqian was stunned.

For the Rong family who had rented a house in the gathering place before, it was very difficult to have such a yard to stay, especially before the beast tide came.

Now Village Chief Yuan easily wants to take over half of it, how is that possible!
