Leaving the Niutou Town Yamen, Li Yu and Zhining headed towards the county town with heavy and depressing mood. They didn't know what the tens of thousands of people in the gathering place would have evolved in the face of food shortage.

Li Yu didn't know where the gathering place was, but I heard from Boss Liu and the others that he was in a valley a few miles outside the county town. Li Yu had been to the county town, and I think it would be not difficult to find that place.

More than an hour later, the two of them walked along the faint official road, and the outline of Sanyang County was vaguely visible.

As a county town, Sanyang County once lived with more than 200,000 people, but now it has become a paradise for zombies.

The Daning Dynasty has suffered internal and external troubles in recent decades. The bandits and green forests of Hang Seng were also protected by Sanyang County. The city walls were not high, only five meters, and were built with earth and stone structures.

It is probably because the gentry and wealthy families in the county were afraid of death. They also invested a lot of money to build the city wall. Because the city wall is quite solid, it has now passed a few months and no one has taken care of it and it still stands tall.

"It's a pity that the county has now become a monster paradise. Otherwise, people would have lived in the city, and I think life would be much better." Zhining looked at the direction of Sanyang County and spoke.

Her emotions have not changed much, after all, the bad living environment has become a certain fact.

"We are close to the county town, and it's only a matter of time before we find a gathering place," Li Yu said with a look around.

The world is covered with heavy snow, and Sanyang County is just a vague outline. It really takes some effort to find a gathering place in the vast world.

"My husband, let's eat something first and then find a gathering place," Zhining suggested.

They set out from the cave, and several hours passed, and it was already afternoon, and neither of them had anything to eat during the period.

"Okay," Li Yu nodded.

Then the two of them came to a big tree on the side of the road. Because there were big trees covering it, there was not much snow under the tree. After cleaning it a little, they took some time to find the firewood and raise the fire.

They carried dry food with them, mainly steamed buns and jerky meat, but they were frozen hard and needed to be roasted and soft before they could swallow it.

There was no accident in the process of eating, and after that, they put out the fire and continued to move forward.

Soon after, they stood a few hundred meters away from the gate of Sanyang County.

Half-squatting in the snow, Li Yu looked around and said, "Although it is covered with heavy snow, this place should be a road leading to the county town. There are many footprints that people have walked through in the snow. We follow these footprints and we should be able to find a gathering place."

Zhining nodded, followed the footprints and spoke in the opposite direction of Sanyang County, saying, "My husband, look, there is a valley over there, and smoke is rising. You said that the gathering place was built in a valley, and I think it should be there!"

"Well, it's not far anyway. Let's go over and see if it's or not." Li Yu stood up and nodded.

The valley Zhining mentioned was only a few miles away from them, and smoke was indeed rising. With the footprints in that direction, Li Yu was already 80% sure that the gathering place was in that place.

It is not surprising that there are footprints in the snow. They all came here from a cave dozens of miles away. I think there are experts in the gathering place. It is not impossible for them to leave the gathering place and enter the county town to find supplies.

Follow the footprints all the way. The closer you get to the valley, the more footprints there are in the snow. When they are almost five hundred meters away from the entrance of the valley, the white snow on the ground has turned into mud.

"The gathering place is indeed here." Li Yu looked ahead and smiled.

He thought it would take some time to find this place, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

Looking ahead, the valley was between two mountains, with a depth of about a few, but the entrance of the valley was less than a hundred meters wide. A ten-meter-high wall made of logs blocked the entrance of the valley. There were people patrolling the wall, the door was opened, and there were people on duty.

It was cold and even though a fire rose at the gate, the people on duty were still trembling with coldness.

"My husband, the situation here does not seem to be as bad as we imagined." Zhining looked at Shan Gu and said thoughtfully.

There are people on duty, and there is no chaos. There should be good order here. No matter how bad the situation is, it will not be much worse.

Li Yu nodded and said, "Yes, I'm afraid I'll see the killing scenes of zombies. Let's go and see what the specific situation is."

As he said that, Li Yu couldn't wait to head towards the valley gate.

Zhining opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end she smiled and followed Li Yu's pace.

She is older than Li Yu, and as a woman, she is much more delicate in her mind, and she does not look at problems as one-sidedly as Li Yu.

"If my husband comes alone, there may not be too much trouble, but if I am with him, right and wrong will probably be indispensable. Well, with my second-rate warrior, I am not a soft persimmon, and some troubles are not enough to worry about. If there are those who don't have eyes, I can't kill the chicken to warn the monkey!" Zhining, who was following Li Yu, shook his hand and said to himself.

Zhining knew how great her appearance was to men, especially in the current environment of great changes and order collapse. When she went to the gathering place, there must be people who were blindly eye-opening to covet her appearance and came to cause trouble. She was mentally prepared.

As she thought in her mind, they were not soft persimmons, and some trouble was not enough to worry about.

In fact, this kind of thing cannot be avoided. Not to mention the current environment, even before the great changes in the world, Zhining's appearance was the source of trouble.

After all, no matter when, strong strength is the foundation for controlling one's own destiny, otherwise one can only be bullied and unable to resist.

Hundreds of meters away quietly passed by at feet, and soon Li Yu and the others arrived outside the valley gate.

There were a total of ten people guarding the gate, wearing thick fur coats surrounding the fire. At first, they didn't want to pay attention to the arrival of Li Yu and the others, but when they saw Zhi Ning following Li Yu, their eyes were straight.

They have seen beautiful women before, but this is the first time that Zhining is so beautiful.

Usually people who enter and exit the valley to guard the gate are ignored. Their gatekeeper is just a form, and it plays a warning role to prevent zombies and beasts from attacking.

However, seeing such a beautiful Zhining, one of them couldn't help but straighten his chest and stepped forward and said, "What are you two doing?"

This is just a matter of having nothing to say, just to look at Zhining a few more times.

Seeing that the other party's eyes kept floating towards Zhining, Li Yu frowned and said in a deep voice: "Look for someone!"

The guy wanted to say something else, but someone pulled him around and smiled at Li Yu and the others, "Since that's the case, you can go in."

That's so simple?

Li Yu looked at them, nodded without saying anything, and took Zhining to pass by the gate and stepped into the valley.

After Li Yu and the others entered, the first person who spoke was dissatisfied with the guy who pulled him, saying, "What did you do to pull me? Also, why did you let them go in so easily? I haven't seen enough of such a beautiful woman yet. It's a loss to look at her less. If you can kiss her, you will have no regrets to die."

After these words, the others nodded, looking at the person who stopped them, looking unhappy.

The person who was complained curled his lips and said, "You want to die? I am saving you!"

"What do you say?" the person who started to complain frowned and asked in a deep voice.

Shaking his head, the person who asked Li Yu and the others to go in said in a deep voice: "Are you all shit in your heads? You don't think about whether the other party can afford to provoke us. Not to mention anything else, in this weather, who can come back from outside is not a master?"

"But we have never seen them at all. Why do you judge that they are masters? Just because they hold weapons? This is not the basis at all, okay?" the guy said unconvinced.

He laughed and the man said again, "So what if they are not masters? Think about it, how can such a beautiful woman be coveted by someone after coming here? Once you are valued by a big man, how can you have a chance to survive if you tease her? So, save money, women are a disaster, especially beautiful women. I have seen through it. If a beautiful woman is capable, it will be a disaster for others. If she is not capable, it will be a disaster for herself."

After hearing what he said, the people around him reacted, and they were shocked, realizing that they almost caused disaster to themselves.

Women, it's just a problem.

As everyone was afraid, the man walked towards the valley.

"Hey, I'm still guarding the gate. Where are you going?" someone couldn't help asking.

The man said without looking back: "I have a stomachache, can I go shit..."
