Time flies, and it has been half a year since Ye Yu came to this world.
At the old man's invitation, Ye Yu successfully moved into the old man's wooden house, but Ye Yu stayed in the living room.
In the past six months of getting along, Ye Yu no longer had the initial wariness of the old man, and Ye Yu also discovered that the old man was also a wonderful person.
Moreover, during the past six months, the old man also taught Ye Yu the common sense and common words of Most Continent.
"Old man, you lost again!"
Ye Yu gently pushed the army on the chessboard next to the general.
The old man's originally calm and complacent expression suddenly turned a little panicked. The hand stroking his beard quickly reached out to the chessboard and pushed Ye Yu's army back.
He looked at Ye Yu with a smile and said, "Boy Ye, judging from our three-month friendship, there is nothing wrong with this move."
Ye Yu looked at the old man with a smile, and said with a little helplessness: "Okay, who asked me to eat and drink from you for these three months!"
Hearing Ye Yu's words, the old man raised his eyebrows and said with a hint of pride: "Let me just say, boy Ye, you are very kind!"
Then he made another move with a smile.
Seeing the old man's regretful move, Ye Yu felt more or less helpless.
This old man is really a bad chess player. He has been playing chess for three months, and the routines he uses are all the ones Ye Yu has used before.
Ye Yu casually pushed his horse and defeated the old man again.
This time, the old man who was still smiling at his regretful chess success suddenly disappeared again. He put one hand on Ye Yu's horse and looked at the current chess game carefully.
He will definitely find a way to come back to life.
While the old man was thinking about the chess game, Ye Yu raised his head, and snowflakes like goose feathers were slowly falling in the sky.
The snowflakes slowly fell ten centimeters above Ye Yu's head, and then slid to the ground.
Although it is already winter, the trees in this place are still green.
It embellishes this quiet and beautiful silver-white world with a touch of warmth.
"No more playing! I can't play with you!"
After studying the chess game for a while, the old man found that he seemed to have no way out. Like a child, he suddenly pushed with both hands and disrupted the entire chess game.
Ye Yu looked dumbfounded at the old man who was acting like a child and shook his head helplessly. This old man was like this again. He started doing this every time he couldn't win against him.
Seeing that the old man didn't want to play at the moment, Ye Yu slowly started to put away the messy chess pieces.
Ye Yu put away the chess pieces and asked, "Old man, wait a minute, want to spar with me?"
As soon as Ye Yu finished speaking, a pair of old hands pressed Ye Yu's hand that was collecting the chess pieces, and the old man's sarcastic laughter came to his ears: "Well, I suddenly feel that I can play two more games."
Ye Yu took the old man's hands and continued to collect the chess pieces. He said without raising his head: "I knew you wouldn't spar with me, so I was very curious. Your fighting spirit is obviously very strong, why don't you use your fighting spirit to spar with me?"
Woolen cloth?"
When he heard that there was no need to spar, the old man took his hands back, sat down and said: "I have a strong fighting spirit! But don't you think you have a murderous intention? I have lived for so long, and I have never seen anyone with a stronger murderous intention than you.
, even the demons coming out of the abyss are not as scary as you!"
Hearing the old man's words, Ye Yu stopped collecting the chess pieces and said angrily: "Old man, be honest, you proposed the competition the day we met, and you asked me to use my full strength!"
The old man's face turned slightly red, and he replied with some embarrassment: "Then I know your murderous intent is so terrifying, and the magic shield I released was cut directly by you like chopping vegetables. Fortunately, old man, I was smart and didn't use weapons.
Otherwise, the weapon will be cut off by you! Then I will suffer a big loss!"
The old man's heart palpitated when he thought of the blood-colored substance covering his hands and the murderous aura that burst out during Ye Yu's sparring session that day.
Ye Yu ignored the old man and continued to pack up the chess pieces.
Seeing that Ye Yu began to ignore him again, the old man stood up and walked to Ye Yu's side. He squatted down half-crouched, put his head next to Ye Yu, and asked, "How is your map drawing going?"
Hearing the old man's question, Ye Yu wanted to punch the old man.
The old man hung a map of Kataze Forest in his room, but he refused to let Ye Yu use it for comparison.
It is also said that it is to help Ye Yu cure his road blindness in other places.
However, even if the old man's map was given to Ye Yu, it would be of absolutely no use, because there were no marks on the map, not even the old man's own residence.
But Ye Yu still had to answer the old man's question. After all, the old man was the only person Ye Yu knew.
"After several months of exploration, I have explored a radius of 4,000 kilometers.
Centered on our residence, 4,000 kilometers to the north, monsters and fighting beasts that can speak human words began to appear. At the same time, an extremely huge tree could be seen, which should be close to the depths of the forest.
To the south and west, there are obviously fewer monsters and fighting beasts, and there are traces of wild beasts. I think we are approaching the edge of the forest.
But the east side is very strange. I can clearly feel the elements in the air converging towards one place.
And from where I feel the elements are converging towards one place, I can’t sense the existence of any flesh-and-blood creatures, so I want to explore along the direction where the elements are converging tomorrow or some time.”
After Ye Yu finished speaking, he also collected all the chess pieces into the chess box.
The old man looked to the east, sighed and said, "Boy Ye, if you really want to explore that place, you must be careful."
"Why?" After hearing the old man's warning, Ye Yu's curiosity was immediately aroused.
The old man pondered for a while and said: "That place is very strange. I remember once before, we detected a demon appearing in the direction you want to explore.
But it was strange that when our people arrived, they found no trace of the devil, as if the devil had never appeared.
Later, we explored that place many times, and we only knew that there was a magic circle there, but we had no idea what the magic circle did.
For security reasons, we contacted the king of Kataze Forest and jointly prohibited the creatures of Kataze Forest from entering there.
So in recent decades, almost no one has gone to that area!”
It was precisely because Ye Yu was strong enough that the old man just warned Ye Yu to be careful.
If Ye Yu is even less powerful, the old man will directly prohibit Ye Yu from exploring that place.
But after hearing what the old man said, Ye Yu's curiosity was completely aroused.
