Chapter 4: Strange Stories in the City

The boys left the inn in twos and threes and came to the street.

At noon, the city looks particularly bright in the sun, and the streets of the city are full of delicate flowers, making people feel like they are in a garden.

Qi Song was very surprised when he met the child he had met in the spirit vein detection in the corridor of the inn. After chatting for a while, they went out of the inn with him.

"My name is Qi Song, I don't know what your name is," Qi Song asked.

"My name is Yi Baisheng, you can call me Xiaobai" Xiaobai lowered his head and smiled weakly.

"Oh, hello" Qi Song looked at Xiao Bai's weak expression, and knew that this kid must have said a fake name.

In this street, the crowds of people coming and going are almost all walking quickly, and almost no one is leisurely watching around. It's a fast-paced town, but strangely enough, the shops on both sides of the street are rarely entered, and I don't know how they survived here.

"Let's go to the trading hall to have a look, I've heard that there are a lot of good things there, not only can you exchange things with currency, you can also exchange your own items" Xiao Bai suddenly raised his head and looked at Qi Song with bright eyes.

"Then let's go, let's go and see where there are any good things" Qi Song suddenly became interested.

By asking the beggar on the corner of the street, Qi Song and Xiaobai came to a crossroads. After walking a few hundred meters to the west of the intersection, under a steep slope of a staircase, a dense crowd of people, like ants. Qi Song and Xiaobai glanced at each other, and they both felt the shock in each other's eyes.

At the foot of the stairs, there are stalls of all sizes. There are even small monster sellers, and the stall owners and sellers are bargaining fiercely. Struggled to move through the crowd, following the flow of people and watching the items on the roadside stalls.

"What," Xiaobai suddenly looked at a stall in front of him on the right with a shocked expression, and said in surprise.

"What's wrong" Qi Song followed Xiaobai's line of sight and saw a grass, the grass had three leaves, each leaf was glowing with a different color.

I saw Xiaobai walking quickly to the stall in front of the right and saying to the stall owner, "How much is this grass, I want it." “

I saw the stall owner proudly said, "This little brother, you are really knowledgeable, it has the effect of warming the soul, it is extremely difficult to get, this grass is difficult for me to get at the risk of my life on the barren grassland, see if you are sincere, sell four hundred spirit stones."

The crowd of onlookers around them all gasped, isn't it cheap to exchange these four hundred spirit stones for a grass? The passage of currency in the other side city is not as common as spirit stones, but spirit stones can be exchanged for currency currency can also be exchanged for spirit stones. One spirit stone is equivalent to fifty taels of silver.

"Here, you count" Xiao Bai took out a bag of spirit stones from the storage ring he carried.

"Childe, no, don't count, look at Childe's appearance, I believe in your character" The stall owner saw a large bag of spirit stones and suddenly smiled on his face. Then he looked at Xiaobai and said, "Childe, I have a lot of good things here, you look at what else, I will sell you cheaply"

"No need" After taking the grass, Xiaobai turned around and left the stall. came to Qi Song's side and said, "Let's go"

Qi Song saw that Xiao Bai's face was sad, and he walked out of the trading floor with Xiao Bai without asking anything.

Qi Song saw that Xiaobai was depressed, as if his soul had been drained. Suddenly, the carriage in front of him rushed towards the street on Qi Song's side as if out of control. Seeing Xiao Bai who was about to be run over by the carriage, Qi Song grabbed Xiao Bai's collar with one hand and retreated to the side.

Xiao Bai, who was placed on the ground, came back to his senses and smiled apologetically at Qi Song

"I'm sorry, I just got distracted"

"What's wrong with you, just now you almost turned into a meatloaf under the wheel" Qi Song saw that Xiaobai was still full of indifference, with a sad look on his face.

Xiaobai shook the dust off his body, stood up and said to Qi Song, "It's nothing, I just thought of someone."

Qi Song saw that Xiao Bai didn't want to speak, so he had to say, "Okay, let's go, it's almost time for us to gather."

......

After reporting the names of the elders, returning to their respective assigned rooms, Qi Song lay on the bed and imagined the appearance of the Death Forest. His heart was full of anticipation and curiosity about the unknown, but there was no fear, because Qi Song believed that with his own strength, he could survive in the forest of death.

When Qi Song felt sleepy, a blue figure suddenly appeared in sight. All of a sudden, Qi Song's drowsiness woke up, got up and did it on the bed. Seeing a young man in blue come in, Qi Song smiled and nodded to the other party. The man did not speak, as if he did not like to be spoken to him. I saw that the other party still had no expression, but nodded slightly to Qi Song, then sat down on the bed opposite Qi Song, closed his eyes and recuperated.

Although Qi Song didn't know much about the three major families in the town, he knew that this was from the Han family when he looked at the color of the headband.

It was time to pack up and go, but for some reason the elders told them that they couldn't leave yet.

Qi Song walked out of the door and came to the corridor of the inn, and saw the elders coming out of a room, all with solemn faces. Qi Song felt very strange, because whether he was on the way or when he first arrived at the inn, he had never seen all the escort elders get together.

Qi Song came to the room where Xiaobai was with this full of doubts, and knocked on them.

"Please come in"

"Qi Song, come on, how about the dagger I just sold next to the inn" As he spoke, Xiao Bai took out a dagger inlaid with gems, and there seemed to be a glowing bead at the end of the dagger.

"Forehead, it's very beautiful" Qi Song saw the gorgeous dagger and replied perfunctorily.

"I know that you don't know the uniqueness of this dagger, and then I will let you see its power in the Death Forest," Xiaobai Chong Qi Song said proudly.

Qi Song looked at this cumbersome dagger, and after looking at it for a while, he didn't find its uniqueness.

"Oh, by the way, do you know what happened, I just saw that the elders' expressions were wrong," Qi Song looked at Xiao Bai and said suspiciously.

"Don't you know, it is said that two of the people who went out this time are missing, and someone was sent to find them shortly after we returned," Xiaobai said in a low voice.

"Isn't that normal?" Qi Song asked suspiciously.

"Normal, it's a corpse that was recovered. It is said that other experienced people were stunned when they saw it, and they really didn't know why they were so evil," Xiaobai said and shuddered.

"So, no wonder we didn't set off today"

"In that case, I'll go rest first, and you can go to bed early," Qi Song walked to the door and said.

"Good"

......

The elders came to a room at the back of the inn, where the two missing teenagers were placed.
