Chapter 71 Forced Enlistment
If it's external, there may be a way to find the data.

After this idea popped up, he couldn't hold it back anymore. Tang An knew that he had to find the engineer's 'golden finger' left in the plot world as soon as possible. No matter what the so-called 'golden finger' was, at least, it was now This thing gave Tang An the motivation to move forward.

Also, what serious accident happened on the Earth-[-] spacecraft?

Why do engineers die tragically?
These are also huge questions.

The time given for this mission was 10 days, and now 2 days have passed. Tang An and Yang Baoguang dared not waste the remaining time and kept rushing.

Fortunately, there was a map to guide them, otherwise the two would get lost in all likelihood.

The benefits of 'players' are also revealed at this moment.

Of course, we also encountered all kinds of dangers along the way, the wild beasts being the second most dangerous. The most dangerous ones were the wild centaurs. These half-man, half-horse creatures were brutal and bloodthirsty and extremely difficult to deal with. Fortunately, Tang An and Yang Baoguang experienced it before. After the battle with the ogre, it was actually much easier to deal with the centaur.

Three days later, Tang An and Yang Baoguang were very close to their destination.

But at this moment, both of them were full of dust and dust. Tang An had used up all the ammunition he was carrying, so he just used the butcher's bone-breaking ax and the long sword he picked up to defend himself.

Naturally, he suffered a lot during this journey. The food and water he had brought with him had long been used up, so he could only search for streams, pick fruits, and hunt some small animals to serve as food.On the contrary, Qingtian got to know the two of them a lot, she cried at first, and then she giggled. Of course, compared to Yang Baoguang, Qingtian prefers to stay with Tang An, and often sleeps on Tang An's back all the way.

At this moment, the place they were in was out of the wilderness, with greenery and lush vegetation, so Tang An and the others felt better.

Because according to the current location, compared with the map, they can reach the place drawn by the old orc in half a day at most, which is the human territory.

In fact, starting today, the two have met some travelers, either traveling alone, or carrying packages and riding in a carriage.

It's a pity that neither Tang An nor Yang Baoguang understands the human language in the No. 8 plot world, so even if they want to ask for directions or learn about the customs here, they can't do it.

At this time, Tang An saw the dust flying on the small road ahead, and after that, he could vaguely hear the ground shaking.

"There are cavalry."

Obviously, if there are only one or two horses, it is impossible to have such momentum, at least more than a dozen or more.

Sure enough, not long after, a group of cavalry appeared in front.

This is the first time Tang An has seen human cavalry in the No. 8 plot world, with exquisite armor, strong horses, and a chilling aura.

The two immediately retreated to the side of the road to avoid being hit by this group of cavalry, but this group of cavalry did not just pass by and leave directly as Tang An thought, but slowed down, and then sent Tang An and Yang Baoguang together surround.

This is obviously not a good thing.

There is a language barrier right now, and things are likely to happen.

So both Tang An and Yang Baoguang were very nervous. Tang An hugged Xiao Qingtian and touched the hilt of the sword behind him with his other hand.

Yang Baoguang also grasped the handle of the ax tightly and prepared for the attack.

The leading knight looked proud, as if looking at ants. He glanced at Tang An and Yang Baoguang, said a few words to a knight next to him, and then shook the reins, and the armored horse immediately let out a long cry , leading the other knights away.

The remaining knight said something to Tang An and Yang Baoguang. They didn't understand anything this time, but they felt that nothing good happened.

"It seems that the other party wants us to follow him." Tang An can see the general meaning. Right now they have no way to resist. Firstly, they are not familiar with this place, and secondly, the opponent is difficult to deal with. The defensive power of the armor is definitely not weak. On Tang An's side, he was still hugging Xiao Qingtian, and there was a real conflict. Tang An and Yang Baoguang were absolutely intimidated.

"Follow the past to see the situation." Tang An made a quick decision, Yang Baoguang nodded, the knight drove Tang An and Yang Baoguang for a while, Tang An saw a stone tower in front of him, at least ten meters high, built with rocks There is a three-meter-high wall around the tower, which looks like a small stronghold

At the moment, Tang An saw a lot of graves, many of which were just buried. Obviously, many people died here, and there were many people moving around in the high tower stronghold. A man who looked like a guard saw When the cavalry came over, they immediately stepped forward to salute. The latter said a few words, and the guard looked at Tang An and Yang Baoguang and nodded.

Afterwards, the cavalry rode away, and the guards let Tang An and Yang Baoguang enter the stronghold.

"What do you mean?" Yang Baoguang asked in a low voice before he could react. Tang An saw that there were many young and middle-aged men who looked like civilians in the stronghold, as well as the posture at the scene and the many bulging graves outside. After turning around, he said: "I still can't see it, let's catch the strong man."

The situation is the same as Tang An said.

They and many civilians around them were forcibly recruited. At this time, the language barrier between Tang An and Yang Baoguang emerged. They could only pretend to be deaf and dumb. Care, let alone pay attention.

In addition to men, there are also women here. Qingtian was forced to be taken care of by a middle-aged peasant woman, while Tang An and Yang Baoguang were given simple infantry armor and infantry swords because of their strong bodies to practice chopping.

Along with them were a dozen other civilians, all of whom had been dragged onto the shelves.

Originally there were more than 20 guards here, and besides that, there were bows and crossbows in hand. It was not suitable to escape at this time, let alone resisting.

Tang An told Yang Baoguang, wait until it gets dark, and find a chance to slip away with a sunny day.

Yang Baoguang nodded and started training.

Naturally, all their weapons were taken away by a guard captain. Tang An and Yang Baoguang were a little worried about this matter. After all, they were obviously not ordinary civilians with so many weapons, but the guard captain did not become suspicious. , or in other words, the other party has other plans.

Soon, Tang An figured it out, because the guard captain later specially called Tang An and Yang Baoguang over, pointed at the flintlock gun, bone-breaking knife, and two axes, and asked a lot of questions.

Unfortunately, neither Tang An nor Yang Baoguang understood it.

Impatient and murderous looks began to appear in the eyes of the captain of the guards, and Tang An also felt bad. Sure enough, several guards locked their hands with iron shackles, connected them with an iron chain, and locked them up.

In the dungeon, both Tang An and Yang Baoguang looked anxious, not for themselves, but for Xiao Qingtian.

"The people here are too domineering. If I knew it, I should have resisted when I had a weapon in my hand." Yang Baoguang looked at the shackles on his wrists with an angry face.

Relatively speaking, Tang An next to him was much calmer, and of course Tang An was also anxious.

"If you resist, you may be killed at that time. These human soldiers are not easy. If they really fight, they are numerous and powerful. We have no chance of winning."

"Then what should we do now? We're locked up here and can't do anything. Could it be that we've been waiting here until the task time runs out?" Yang Baoguang asked.

This is also a way, but it will obviously suffer a lot. Most of Tang An and Yang Baoguang's belongings were confiscated, including Tang An's nautical compass, such an important prop, it is impossible for Tang An to throw it here.

What's more, what about sunny days?
