257: C257 Freer City

C257 Freer City

Ding Yi stuck close to the horse and the bullets flew past him. His body slightly changed its position. Those bullets seemed to have eyes, as they grazed past Ding Yi's body, but none of them hit him.

Ding Yi was relieved when he heard the sound of wind by his ear. These people could no longer catch up to him, so he rode his horse and galloped away.

After midnight, Ding Yi arrived at a big tree that was cracked by the cold and only the black shell of the horse remained.

Ding Yi had been searching for Si Chenfei and the others for most of the night, but because it was dark and the snow soon covered their tracks, he did not find anything after searching for half the night.

"Forget it, let's take a rest for a while and head straight to the Freer City. We'll definitely be able to find them once we get there." Thinking about that, Ding Yi jumped down from the horse and led it to a big tree.

Although the tree was already withered, its crown was enormous and its branches intertwined with each other. It was barely able to block out the wind and snow.

After tying the horse to the tree trunk, Ding Yi sat cross-legged under the big tree.

The Spiritual Energy in his body revolved, the Jindan in his dantian rotated, a faint light emitted from Ding Yi's body and revolved around his body, strands of spirit energy were sucked out from the air and flew into Ding Yi's body through his pores, becoming a part of the surging river water in his meridians.

The night passed quickly.

When dawn arrived on the second day, the wind died down a bit, but the snow was still falling. Only then did Ding Yi understand why Si Chenfei was so anxious when facing the snow. The wind and snow on the Northern Realm was indeed not ordinary.

Helpless, Ding Yi had no choice but to determine the direction and ride his horse forward through the snow.

In a flash, half a month had passed. It was all thanks to Ding Yi's storage bag, which contained a lot of things. Otherwise, he and the long-haired horse would have starved to death in the snow.

Half a month later, Ding Yi finally arrived at Northern Realm, the landmark of Northern Realm.

Freer City was indeed worthy of being called the landmark city of Northern Realm, and was also one of the only two big cities there, its area was many times larger than any single city in the north of the river.

It was the first line of defense for the Freer City, and the lines on the green brick were filled with legends.

Seeing this strange yet familiar wall, Ding Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He couldn't remember when Ding Yi came to the Freer City, and now that he was here, he couldn't help but sigh and ride his horse towards the city gate.

Ding Yi could not help but feel refreshed as he rode his horse through the city gate. This place was not as rundown as the small villages outside, it was filled with an ancient aura, the entire Freer City Tower was towering, and all kinds of buildings could be seen, it was not one bit inferior to Jiangbei!

However, the people on the streets were mostly horses. There were also some people driving snowmobiles on the streets, but it was obvious that they were no ordinary people since they could drive snowmobiles here.

The entire year was in winter, and there was only a short period of time for people to catch their breath, causing the entire Northern Realm to not only have an extremely low food production rate, but also be not suitable for new types of transportation such as cars. Instead, the long-haired horses had become extremely popular travel tools here.

After all, driving on half a foot of snow really wasn't a pleasant thing.

"Stables?" Leading his horse into the Freer City, Ding Yi couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Perhaps it was to make it convenient for riding, but the streets here were ridiculously wide.

On a plaque, four large words were written crookedly: Safe Stables.

"Hello, are you going to deposit this horse?" Before Ding Yi walked in, a man in coarse clothes walked out and said to Ding Yi with a smile, "Our Safe Stables are the best stables in the area. Not only is the environment clean, we can guarantee that we won't let your horse eat until its stomach breaks."

"Ten dollars a day, and your horse will have twenty-four hours of service." With that, the man opened the stable door.

Suddenly, the unique smell of a long-haired horse hit his face. Normally, he wouldn't be able to detect this smell, but once it reached a certain extreme, it would cause him to feel nauseous.

At that moment, Ding Yi was like that. The strong smell almost made him spit it out.

"Only ten dollars a day?" Ding Yi was stunned.

"That's right, just give me the horse and take this with you to complete the formalities." The man received the rope with a smile. Then he took out a sign from his pocket and stuck it on the horse's ear. He then handed a wooden plate to Ding Yi. It was probably the certificate to store the horse.

After completing the procedures, Ding Yi was still confused. He realized that everything here was very cheap, especially... Someone had been bargaining for a day's worth of horses with this stable for nearly half an hour.

However, Ding Yi didn't think too much about it. After leaving the stable, he found a nearby hotel. After settling down, he was surprised to find that there was a cell phone signal here.2

Not long after, the phone was switched on.

Ding dong, ding-dong …

In an instant, countless missed calls and countless messages bombarded over, directly blowing up Ding Yi's phone to a dead end.

Only after a while did Ding Yi react. Looking at the screen full of red notifications, he felt his head spinning. He quickly opened the text message to see who had contacted him during the past half month.

After opening the message, Ding Yi frowned. The first text message that entered his vision was sent by Han Feirong: "Ding Yi, immediately reply after receiving the text message. Something went wrong with Jinzhou City!"

In less than a month of time, a total of forty to fifty text messages had been sent in. Most of them were from Han Feirong, and some were from Jin Siqi.

However, he didn't mention what the trouble was.

Thinking about it, Ding Yi frowned, he had just left the Jinzhou City, how could there be trouble? Furthermore, thinking about the hardships that he had endured for the past half month, Ding Yi's heart sank. Even if he rushed back now, it would be a waste of time.

Ding Yi took a deep breath and silently prayed that nothing would happen to Han Feirong. At the same time, he dialed Han Feirong's number.

Du, du, du … …

The call went through, but no one answered.

For the third time in a row, Ding Yi's mood became heavier and heavier. He then dialed Jin Siqi's number. He did not expect to be like Han Feirong, with no one answering!

"This is bad!" Ding Yi's heart suddenly thumped. What happened to his Jinzhou City?
