The moon waxes and wanes, and people have joys and sorrows. Parting is a fate that every life cannot escape, and reincarnation is endless.
I just said goodbye to Old Man Huang not long ago, and then another NPC who I had only met a few times left. I didn't even know their name. He was holding the relics of the swordsman in his hand. For a moment, he felt inexplicable sadness and left this talented man in the world.
Surrounded by young people, he didn't know who his parents were, and there were no other relatives or elders spreading out. In reality, Chen Fan had never experienced a real separation of life and death, so he couldn't digest these emotions for a while.
Until a rabbit ran past him, interrupting his meditation. Looking at the figure of the rabbit that had run away, Chen Fan no longer allowed his sentimental emotions to brew. He put the fruit of life and the broken handle in his hand into his backpack and looked around.
Around him, Chen Fan saw the familiar flawless jade in the distance, which was where he teleported from Chaoyang Village to Baishui County. Then he could confirm the approximate direction of the south entrance of Baishui County. He wanted to go directly back to Baishui County to resupply, after all, this
The supplies for the first time had been exhausted in the giant tree space, but Chen Fan didn't want to go back to the bustling place at this moment. He wanted to stay quietly for a while, even if he went for a walk.
After making up his mind, he started walking in the woods around Wuxia Jade. In order to prevent him from getting lost again, Chen Fan turned on the map recording function this time. In fact, what Chen Fan didn't know was that he got lost in the western suburbs of the city by mistake.
In the maze of life, even if he opens the map to record, it will not help. However, according to normal logic, for a person who is a bit crazy about the road, the advantages will always outweigh the disadvantages.
The suburbs in the south of the city are more populated than those in the west of the city. There is a straight official road, and cars, horses and pedestrians pass by from time to time. Besides, there are basically no high-level wild monsters in the suburbs in the south of the city, and their number is also much rarer than in the west of the city.
, After walking for a long time, Chen Fan encountered some small wild monsters such as rabbits and pheasants. A slightly higher level one only saw a wild boar, but unfortunately it ran away. After walking for a long time, he finally felt a lot better. Anyway,
To return to life, start taking stock of the benefits of this trip.
It is true that he has received another hidden mission, but judging from the battle he has seen between the swordsman and the giant tree of life, the aftermath of the collision is far beyond what he can bear. I don’t know how long it will be before I can complete it. Although
I got another skill book that seemed to be of infinite value. Not to mention skill learning, I couldn't even move or use it. Otherwise, it would definitely be sold at a sky-high price if I posted it on the forum. After all, there are still a lot of rich people in this society who are willing to spend money.
In short, having a treasure mountain but not being able to get it is like suddenly gaining a huge amount of wealth, but the bank tells you that you can only use it after 20 years.
"It would be nice if the knife didn't break. It looks like an awesome weapon, full of energy, but it's a pity..."
Chen Fan said to himself. In fact, Chen Fan even had the idea of taking the fruit directly, but what is known so far is that the life fruit has miraculous effects on healing. He is alive and kicking, and can be resurrected infinitely. Not to mention that the hidden mission will directly fail, and eating it may
It was of no use, and with the swordsman's instructions, this thought passed away in a flash.
"It would be nice if there was some elixir that could increase one's skill for ten years or one hundred years." Chen Fan was a little regretful. Of course, he came out this time without direct gains. After all, the Raccoon Lord still bought himself two pieces of equipment and successfully reached level 17.
, Level: 15; 7, Wang Lin, Level: 15; 8, Su Chen, Level: 14; 9, Harpoon II, Level: 14; 10, Flowers on the Other Side, Level: 14.
This time the level list has not changed much, and he has reached third place again, but the levels of the people behind the top ten are slowly catching up. The waves behind are pushing the waves ahead, and a sense of crisis makes Chen Fan feel that the competition is fierce, and he must level up quickly.
, and since I had no medicinal materials, I followed the official road back to Baishui County to resupply and then went to the west of the city to practice!
After making up his mind, he went straight to the south gate of Baishui County. Shaoqing finally saw the three simple characters of Baishui County. After experiencing the pain of getting lost, he realized that finding the right direction was also a gratifying thing. Chen Fan felt a little confused.
Surprisingly, there were originally only two gatekeepers at the south gate, one on the left and one on the right, but now there are five. Moreover, there are two face portraits posted on the wall on the right side of the city gate. Compared with the previous relatively loose inspection,
This time it seems to be much stricter. Basically everyone entering and leaving the city must be questioned, and passing cars and horses must also be inspected.
Chen Fan didn't think much and walked straight over. When he got closer, he discovered that there was an old acquaintance in the interrogation team. The young city guard Li Wen on duty at the west gate of the city was currently interrogating the passers-by. Although the flow of people entering and leaving the city was also
It was sparse, but due to the intensity of the interrogation, a team was still formed in and out of the city and slowly moved forward. Following the flow of people entering the city, they walked up to the young city guard. Perhaps it was not long before the city guard also recognized Chen at a glance.
Fan took the initiative to say hello to Chen Fan.
Chen Fan felt warm in his heart, waved his hand enthusiastically in response, and asked, "Brother, is he on duty in the south of the city?"
"Hey, don't mention it. I was on vacation, but recently a store in the south of the city was ransacked by robbers, and several guys were injured. The brothers arrested two, but two of them ran away, and then Liu
"My lord, I'm calling you back." The young city guard's originally overflowing smile turned into a bitter smile.
"Haha, you are miserable too..." Chen Fan, who was a little afraid of society, responded with a haha.
Suddenly, a voice came from beside me: "Fourth brother, what are you doing? Just wait and see. There are people waiting behind you!"
Chen Fan turned around and saw a middle-aged man who was a head shorter than the young city guard, but looked very muscular. His face was covered with a stubble beard and he said angrily.
"Yes, Captain!" Li Wen said seriously, then turned to Chen Fan and said: "You should go quickly, we will talk after you are done."
Chen Fan did not dare to neglect, in case the strong man would anger him, and it might not be good if he was locked up for a few more days. After all, if there was any lesson learned from the past, he waved his hand to the young guard and entered the city. After entering the city, he did nothing.
In addition, he went straight to the medicinal material store and bought fifty pairs of Aifang ointment and fifty health recovery tablets. It could be said that he had enough supplies. Of course, the price of 10 silver coins was enough to make Chen Fan feel heartache, but the troops did not move.
, food and grass come first, and the money that should be spent on body pain lasts will still have to be spent.
After purchasing the medicinal materials, Chen Fan wandered around Baishui County for a while, and then took on the task of collecting antlers, so he no longer delayed and went to the outskirts of the west of the city to level up. Chen Fan arrived at the outskirts of the west of the city in a familiar way, and was speechless all the way.
, it is especially worth mentioning that there are also three guards at the west gate of the city, checking the people coming in and out. "It seems that the matter in Baishui County is quite serious this time, and the intensity is indeed sufficient," Chen Fan thought to himself.
After arriving in the suburbs, I still followed the same old routine, casually swiping wild monsters on the road while using reconnaissance skills to increase my proficiency. I came to the raccoon territory again. I was looking forward to meeting the raccoon lord again and getting a few good things.
It's a pity that I didn't see the lord come out when I was almost numb looking at the raccoon's cute face.
However, so far, Chen Fan has not figured out the rules of the existence and refreshment of lords. Some low-level monster groups also have lords or small bosses, such as the goats and pheasants he encountered, but there are also three or five level monsters.
Lords, there are even super beings like Dark Pheasant in Chaoyang Village. Even Chen Fan has to take a detour when he encounters Twilight Caller after giving birth. There is absolutely no possibility of a duel. However, some wild monsters have reached more than ten levels.
I haven't met a single lord for a long time. It's as if there is no BOSS at all, not even elite monsters. I read the forums before and there were all different opinions, and there was no unsubstantiated opinion.
However, this little doubt disappeared in a moment, "These are all trivial things, why study this thing, just do it!", the stubborn Chen Fan raised his legs and walked deeper into the jungle.
On a mountain thirty miles east of Baishui County, there is a simple cottage. The cottage is very hidden. There is not even a plaque at the gate. Moreover, the cottage is located at a high place, making it difficult to defend and attack.
When you pass the pass, you can feel the terrain is invincible. Suddenly two figures appeared from the hidden mountain road. One of them took out a special instrument in his arms and put it to his mouth and blew a sound. After a while, a head emerged from the gate of the cottage.
After leaning out, as if to confirm the identity of the visitor, a small gap was opened at the door. After the two of them entered, the door was closed tightly.
"Si Qiang, you mean you only brought back ten silver coins this time?"
In the innermost part of a fairly spacious hall, there are three chairs arranged in a mountain shape, with three people sitting on them. The person speaking is the big man sitting on the left, wearing a hanging coat sewn from the skin of a green wolf.
He had a standard Chinese face and short hair, and he was leaning forward to shout at the two people kneeling in front of him.
"When I went back to the second master's house, it was indeed like this. I originally robbed thirty gold coins and ten silver coins from the shop. I took the twenty silver coins, and Xiao Ma took the thirty gold coins, but wasn't he caught by the government?"
The man who was kneeling on the ground and replying was making a loud sound. He was rather fat and had a naive look on his face.
"Then why don't you put all the money on yourself?" the man on the stage continued to ask.
"Second Master, you also know that I am not very agile. Xiao Ma's legs are thin and long and he can run fast. He must get thirty gold coins. This is what Meng Tiezhu said is right. Eggs cannot be put in one basket, so I still
I took ten silver coins, and if I let Brother Ma take them all, I would lose even these ten silver coins." After that, the fat man looked at the man kneeling next to him.
"You two are useless! Thanks to my informant who told us that Sun's shop bought cash from Yecheng, this great opportunity was messed up by you bunch of pigs. Will there be such an opportunity next time?", 2
The master cursed bitterly.
"Are you the new brother who plans to join the gang?" He was sitting at the bottom of the three people speaking this time. He was wearing a yellow Taoist robe and a traditional Taoist bun on his head. He closed his eyes and said lightly, but he did not mention losing gold.
Things.
"If you go back to the third master's house, he is a villain." There was another person kneeling next to the fat man. This person was wearing ordinary linen clothes and had a yellowish complexion, but he looked clean.
"Why do you want to join our village?" the Taoist leader asked.
"For money, even more revenge!"
"What's the grudge?"
"My father died because of a dog officer, and now my younger brother has also been arrested by the government. The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable!"
"Oh?~~" Listening to the Taoist leader's still suspicious tone, the fat man on the side said hurriedly: "Second Master, Brother Tiezhu is fine. I originally brought him and his brother to join us this time.
But both his brother and Xiao Ma were arrested, and if it hadn’t been for him, I would have been arrested by the government, and we would have lost even ten silver coins, which at least can be used by the whole village..."
"Shut up! You are a person who has little success but is more than capable of ruining things." The second master interrupted fiercely, but turned to the leader and said: "Brother, this man has a clear background, and he is stupid and strong enough to vouch for it. Didn't I see it?"
What a big problem."
"Well, that's up to you." The leader also nodded.
"Brother, it's better to be cautious. I thought that because of the second boss's informant, the one vote that had everything ready turned out to be a basket of water," the Taoist priest said.
"Didn't I bring back ten silver coins? Why did I draw water from the bamboo basket? Are you doubting my spy?" The second master's voice gradually became louder.
"Okay, okay, it's all my brothers. Stop arguing. Let's leave this matter as it is." Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, the boss quickly smoothed things over.
Then he said: "In that case, you can go down first."
"Yes, the master." The two kneeling men stood up and then slowly retreated.
