It was more than 200 kilometers from the Great Wall of the Northern Border to the Protectorate. The roads in this area had become dilapidated due to years of disrepair. Along the way, many dilapidated and collapsed houses could be seen, as well as the ghastly white bones exposed by the wind in the mounds.
The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no cock crowing for thousands of miles.
These two sentences were definitely not an exaggeration in the border areas. Even the merchants were not willing to move in the direction of the northern border.
As they went further south, the weather gradually became more pleasant. The number of pedestrians and tourists gradually increased, and they could even see many caravans.
Whether it was the transportation of silk, brocade, porcelain, paintings, and so on from the Great Tang to the Cloudy Desert or to the various parts of the Western Regions.
Or to transport good horses, furs, demon seeds, and demon cores from the west to the Great Tang. These were all extremely profitable transactions, enough to make a windfall.
Of course.
The border was also in chaos. There were bandits and bandits, corruption at the checkpoints, and so on. The merchants who could really successfully make a sale were not many. Only some powerful merchant forces could do it. Most of them would just lose their lives.
Dressed in white. Jiang Yu, who was wearing a wolf-skinned cloth vest, a wolf tooth pendant hanging from his neck, and a straw in his mouth, was lying on a slowly moving ox cart. He looked up at the blue sky and white clouds of the King's Continent.
There were a total of ten ox-carts. The outside was covered by a haystack, and inside were a large number of materials such as demon seed fur and demon cores that were tightly tied up. Accompanying them were a few experienced cooks and old soldiers. They were dressed like ordinary merchants, and they looked quite ordinary in the midst of these rumbling carriages.
"Uncle White, do you think our things are worth anything?”
Turning his head, Jiang Yu smiled at Uncle Bai, the old soldier driving the carriage.
"It's valuable, how can it not be valuable? The fur produced by our Northern Borderline is of the highest quality, but it depends on whether there are buyers who know the goods. Speaking of which, the fur of the Stormwind Demon Wolf on your body is the real good thing.”
The old soldier said with a smile, his eyes filled with love.
"Shouyue…lied to me again!”
Jiang Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Before he left, Shouyue personally gave him this wolf skin vest, telling him to pay attention to safety on the long journey. Jiang Yu said why he felt that this fur was a little familiar.
It turned out that this fellow and a few old cooks had rushed to make this wolf skin cloth armor vest with good defense for him. They had even made the two fangs of the silver boss, the Gale Demon Wolf, into a pendant for Jiang Yu.
This was no ordinary pendant.

This world could actually produce some special items that were different from the system store!
Jiang Yu was very surprised.
He had also looked at his system store. Level 2 items had not been released yet, but the prices inside…were so expensive that he almost vomited blood. Even a Level 2 yellow fork (Berserk Blade) cost more than 20,000 gold coins…
It seemed that it was far from enough for him to earn gold coins by killing magic seeds alone. He could only consider selling more skin cards.
"Hey, my lord, there's movement ahead! It's a flying type demonic seed!"
Uncle White, who was driving the bullock-cart, suddenly tightened his grip on the reins, causing the black yak, which was a specialty of the northern border, to stop in its tracks. The merchants not far ahead were also in quite a commotion.
" Guards! Guards!"
"Protect the goods!"
"Quickly go to the protectorate headquarters and request reinforcements!!”
"Everyone, don't panic. This place is only thirty li away from the protectorate headquarters. Reinforcements will arrive soon!”
……
Panic and berating continued. The sparse guards and rangers surrounded the merchants with worn-out weapons in their hands. All of them looked nervous and even a little terrified.
" Flying Demon Seed?!"
Jiang Yu could not help but frown.
If there was anything that the guards of the Northern Borderline hated the most, it would undoubtedly be the flying demon seeds, followed by the crawling berserk demon seeds.
In this era, the lethality of ordinary human bows and arrows was extremely limited, and very few warhorses could catch up with flying magic seeds. In the past, as long as merchants encountered flying magic seeds on the road, they would basically be wiped out or abandon all their goods to escape.
However, for these demon seeds, fresh and delicious food was the real temptation for humans. Puzzled.
Before Jiang Yu's convoy arrived, they had already sprinkled powder to drive away flying demon seeds. They were not the focus of attention, but the few rich merchants in front were unlucky.
Screech--
The sound of a golden chime that could pierce through the clouds and crack rocks came from the sky.
The huge bird demon seed, which had a wingspan of nearly three meters, swooped down. Its pitch-black, iron-like feathers glistened under the sunlight, and its sharp claws flickered with a cold light.
With just a dive, he had already scratched the brains of a guard who was following him.
The fresh blood made the flying Demon Seeds in the sky even more excited.
"It's the Ironfeather Demonic Eagle! Sir, let's retreat quickly!"
The faces of Uncle White and the others changed drastically upon seeing this. Only the well-prepared and armed Petal Scaled Flower Guards would dare to face the Ironfeather Falcons head-on. There were only a few of them, and they were completely useless.
Jiang Yu's expression also changed slightly. The Iron-Feathered Demonic Eagle could fly at an altitude of more than 300 meters. Unless the other party swooped down and attacked, his sword qi would not be able to reach such a high flying demonic seed. As for ordinary human bows and arrows, they would only leave a white mark on the other party's feathers.
"Help! Hurry up and run!"
" It's the Demon Hawk!!"
"Heavens, why would such a monster be lured here!”
……
The resistance of the guards quickly fell apart. All the merchants and travelers on the entire road joined the fleeing army, like a flood that poured down against the current, fleeing in all directions like birds and beasts.
However, such a method would only make these flying demon seeds hunt for food more unscrupulously. They would swoop down again and again to casually take the lives of those fleeing humans.
"It would be great if I could awaken an archer hero.”
Jiang Yu gritted his teeth. He couldn't buy or equip the bow and arrow type equipment in the store, including magic equipment. There were strict template restrictions. Sword Saint Ge Nia was a martial arts type existence, so he could only buy melee weapons, defensive equipment, and so on.
Whoosh!
Just as he was thinking, a purple beam of light shot through the sky with a piercing sound. It was like a shooting star in the night, smashing an Iron Feather Demonic Eagle that was about to attack Jiang Yu's convoy into pieces.
Blood rained down.
