Let's suffer a little longer, fellow Blue Star folks.

Because the environment was too dark and there was an echo, and the scene was indeed a bit scary at the beginning, he didn't hear clearly where the sound came from.

But now he seems to know.

"Are you from Yunhe Town?" the female voice asked.

"Yes."

As Alps spoke, he walked up to the wall and knocked twice.

"Are you on the other side?"

"Yes." The female voice came immediately.

Because the distance was much closer, the sound could be heard more clearly, and Alps felt that the sound was inexplicably familiar.

"When you came from Yunhe Town, did you see a man who looked dull but had a good appearance?" the female voice asked.

"Forehead……"

Is this description a bit too abstract?

"It seems not." Ah Tui also walked to the wall and said.

Ever since he knew that the female voice was an NPC and not a female ghost, Ah Tui's courage instantly revived.

My hands and legs stopped shaking, and even my voice became louder.

"His name is Gu Yu, and he's our comrade," the female voice continued. "He was released by the soldiers to raise a ransom. He should be heading towards Yunhe Town."

Hearing this, Alps immediately raised his eyebrows.

Gu Yu?

This name sounds so familiar.

Among those three merchants from Yuanfu Town, one of them was called Gu Yu.

And he does look good, but he speaks and acts a little dully.

"You... aren't you Fang Xin?" Alps thought for a moment and then asked directly.

Then the other side fell silent.

After a while, the female voice sounded again.

"Who are you? How do you know my name?"

Chapter 243 There is only one truth!

"I'm Alps."

After hearing Fang Xin indirectly acknowledge his identity, Alps' tone became more cheerful.

I never thought that I could meet acquaintances even in jail in this game.

It's really monkey shit!

"Alps?"

Fang Xin, who was sitting on the other side of the wall, was also stunned.

The name was so rare that she couldn't think of anyone else.

"How will you be here?"

She remembered that the Yunshan River gathering place was quite far from Yangwei Village.

One is to the east of Yunhe Town, and the other is to the west of Yunhe Town. Even if you drive back and forth, it will take two or three days.

Not to mention that you may encounter a series of strange things on the road, such as demons, bandits, refugees, etc.

In this world, no normal person would run so far.

"Hey, we came here to investigate, but we were inexplicably arrested by these people at the checkpoint."

Alps sighed, but didn't tell the whole story. Instead, he changed the subject and asked back.

"What about you? What's going on with you?"

"Our situation..." Fang Xin's tone instantly turned melancholy when talking about this topic. "That's a long story."

"It's okay, just talk slowly and we'll listen slowly."

As Alps spoke, he sat down in the corner, obviously ready to listen to the story.

"Okay, then I'll start from the beginning." Fang Xin organized his words and began to recall.

"After leaving your place, the three of us headed east..."

Favorite black stockings and beautiful legs: To put it simply, these three people from Yuanfu Town were caught red-handed by the Jiaoqiu Army when they were sneaking across the border. They were caught red-handed and thrown into prison.

Favorite black stockings and beautiful legs: Then a few days ago, the man named Gu Yu was released to collect the ransom, but he has not returned yet.

Conan and Ai's life: Huh? They are so unlucky.

Dabai: What's so unlucky about this? These people are smugglers. They deserve to be caught.

Lemon: Actually, I was a bit unlucky. The border is so long and there are mountains everywhere, but I still got caught. It's just a pure eyebrow pencil.

Sugar-roasted chestnuts are the most delicious: If you ask me, they might as well go through customs normally. It’s just a matter of paying some tariffs. At least they can avoid all these problems.

Phosphorus Pentoxide: Um, is there a possibility that the three of them are actually selling contraband?

Sugar-roasted chestnuts are the best: Huh? Contraband? What are they selling?

Maimen Yongcun: Fake medicine... Oh my god! Fang Xin and the others went to Jiaoqiu Town to sell fake medicine!

Mai Men Yongcun: Then they were caught at the border, and the fake drugs on them fell into the hands of the Jiaoqiu Army, right?

Mai Menyongcun's eyes lit up instantly, and the glasses she wore seemed to begin to reflect light, and an exciting BGM seemed to sound in her ears immediately.

'Thump, thump, thump. Thump, thump, thump...'

Maimen Yongcun: "There is only one truth!"

"Those fake medicines in Yangwei Village were sold by the Jiaoqiu Army! In order to sell the stolen goods, they directly pretended to be the Yunzhong Chamber of Commerce!"

"That way, even if something goes wrong with the fake medicine, they can stay out of it!"

"That also explains why they arrested Alps and A-Tui as well. They smelled the potion and thought they could make another fortune by selling another batch!"

A complete chain of evidence seemed to be formed in an instant, and the three parties involved in the incident were completely connected by Mai Men Yongcun.

All that’s missing is the leader of the Jiaoqiu Army kneeling down to repent, and then we’ll be done with flowers…

Phosphorus Pentoxide: That's not right. Aren't Fang Xin and his team's fake medicines defective products? That stuff can't kill people.

Mai Menyongcun's smug expression froze in an instant.

Maimen Yongcun: Uh... it seems like a roar.

Conan and Ai's lifelong promotion: So it turns out that the last person Mami COS is Kogoro Mouri?

……

At this time, Gu Yu, who was released by the Jiaoqiu Army to prepare the ransom, was looking at the trading point in the distance and fell into deep thought.

When did a gathering place appear here?

Moreover, this gathering place didn't even have a wall, and it had such a striking feature, there was no way he could forget it.

Shit, did he take the wrong path?!

Just as Gu Yu was standing there carefully recalling the map in his mind, the sun slowly peeked out from behind the mountains in the east.

There was also a bustling flow of people outside the trading point.

Then Gu Yu observed carefully again and found that there were no soldiers patrolling with guns near the gathering place, and there were no heavy weapons such as cannons and machine guns on the watchtowers.

How about going over and taking a look?

If it doesn't work, just run away immediately.

It doesn't look dangerous anyway.

And regardless of whether he can enter this gathering place or not, he should at least figure out what this place is.

It has been almost a week since he was released by the Jiaoqiu Army. If he doesn't rush to Yunhe Town to ask Bu Dan for the ransom, Fang Xin and Uncle Wang's bodies will probably be rotten.

Thinking of this, he immediately walked towards the trading point.

Not long after walking, Gu Yu saw a resident holding an axe and humming a little tune walking towards him, and he immediately went to meet him.

"Excuse me, fellow villager! Where is this place?"

The resident was startled by Gu Yu's sudden appearance, and instantly brought the axe in front of him.

However, after he saw Gu Yu's appearance clearly, he felt a little relieved.

The young man had messy hair, looked tired, his clothes were covered in mud, and he had no weapon in his hands.

He looked like a refugee fleeing alone.

However, he still silently took two steps back and kept a suitable distance from Gu Yu.

Basic caution is still necessary.

"This is the Yunshanhe trading point. If you are a refugee, you can find some work here. At least you will have enough food to eat." said the resident.

"Trading point?" Gu Yu blinked.

Oh no, he really had never heard of this place.

"How far is this place from Yunhe Town?" he immediately asked.

"Yunhe Town?"

The resident chewed on these three words for a while, then shook his head very decisively.

"I don't know. I came from Shaling. If you want to go to Yunhe Town, you might want to ask those who have weapons. They are the locals."

"Okay, thank you, big brother."

Seeing that the other party kept looking away and obviously didn't want to continue chatting, Gu Yu decisively ended the topic.

"It's okay." The resident waved his hand. "The people here are pretty nice. If you have nowhere else to go, it's not bad to stay here for a while."

After saying that, he picked up the axe and walked in another direction.

It looks like they are going to cut down trees.

So, there are indeed a lot of fresh wood piles in the distance, so this gathering place is newly built?

"Well, let's go take a look. I hope this place isn't far from Yunhe Town."

Gu Yu started walking again, and soon he walked out of the woods.

When he walked out of the woods, he found that there were more people here than he had imagined, and judging from their expressions, this did not seem like a problematic gathering place.

He has traveled all over the country for so many years, so he still has some insight.

Just when he was about to find someone else to ask about the situation, an urgent voice sounded from his side.

"Little brother over there! Wait a moment!"

Gu Yu immediately turned his head and saw a middle-aged man and a young man running towards him.

Neither of them had any weapons in their hands, so they probably had no malicious intent.

Seeing that Gu Yu stopped, the middle-aged man also slowed down, and the two finally stopped about five or six meters in front of Gu Yu.

"We are the people who are responsible for receiving outsiders at the trading point. My name is Li Si, and this is Li Ji. May I ask what are you doing here, little brother?"

Chapter 244 It’s You

"I……"

Gu Yu paused, and finally nodded firmly.

"I went to Yunhe Town to seek refuge with my relatives."

"Going to live with relatives?" Li Si first looked at Gu Yu's makeup and clothes, then nodded with a smile.

"Then you're lucky. Our trading point often has cars going to Yunhe Town."
