Volume II, Chapter 177

"You mean, this village has been abandoned for at least fifty years?" said Shrayin looked at Mette with black lines on his head, the boy who crawled up to him and thanked him for saving his life.

From Mette's account, Shi Leiyin knew that his true body had not been discovered by the teenager. So I was happy to let the boy misunderstand that he was a strong hunter - in the eyes of this boy, it seemed that the hunter was the only synonym for strength.

"Yes, dear sir, judging by the level of decay of the items here, it has been at least fifty years. Some of the collapsed houses contain items made from Athlon bones, and they will only slowly decay if they have been in existence for more than fifty years."

"That doesn't prove that the village has been abandoned for that long," Shi Leiyin frowned, but his face was completely hidden in the cloak, and he didn't let the boy see it.

"Yes, my dear sir, but the bones are unfinished, indicating that they were only beginning to be made when the village was abandoned. Don't look at my age, I've been a waste picker for more than three years. It seemed that he heard Shi Leiyin's dissatisfaction, the young man couldn't help but want to explain his ability, but after saying that, the young man regretted it, he was facing a powerful hunter, but he didn't think about it and said that he was dissatisfied with the other party's contempt for himself, thinking of the hunters in the village who had no one in their eyes and wantonly bullied him, the young man glanced at Shi Leiyin in fear, and found that he couldn't see the expression under the cloak at all, so he could only bow his head deeply, thinking about how to escape if the other party was angry and angry.

"Uh, okay. I don't know what a scavenger is, but it sounds like you're experienced. Shi Leiyin didn't care about the dissatisfaction in the young man's tone at all, seeing that the young man's chin was about to touch his chest, Shi Leiyin thought that the other party felt aggrieved because he didn't believe him. "Well, what do I want to say? Yes, we won't discuss when the village will be abandoned, it doesn't matter if it's fifty or a hundred years anyway, it's all the fault of the old fool who told me that there was a village here. Shi Leiyin thought silently in his heart, Mo Mo'anbi, old man, don't blame me for using you as a shield.

"Okay, didn't you say that you want to repay me for saving my life? Are you going to repay me with your head down like this?" Seeing that Mette still didn't have a tendency to raise his head, Shi Leiyin had no choice but to take what the young man had just said to come out and threaten the other party.

"No, no, I just thought you'd be angry," Mette also heard that Shi Leiyin was not angry at what he was talking about, and quickly raised his head to explain.

"Angry, me, why?" Shi Leiyin's head almost turned into a question mark, in fact, under the cloak that the young man couldn't see, Shi Leiyin's face had already appeared a question mark because of his thinking, replacing the original facial features.

"Because the hunters in the village will ...... when they encounter such a situation You are such a great hunter" Mette didn't continue, but praised Shi Leiyin, in the young man's heart, a great hunter is probably a strong strength, and a kind heart that can tolerate others.

"Uh, is this a good person's card?" Shi Leiyin muttered, "Don't talk about that, since you want to repay me, then tell me about the situation around here, ah, and better show me a route from the south out of the mountains." Since Shui Jing and the three of them were still waiting outside the valley, Shi Leiyin still decided to bring the topic to the point as soon as possible.

"Yes sir" Mette also knew that there was nothing else on his body that the other party might look at except for the pair of double knives he had just found, and if he wanted to repay the other party for saving his life, this ancient pair of double knives should not be enough, so since the other party wants to ask himself, he must tell the other party everything he knows in as much detail as possible.

Because of Mette's hard work, Shi Leiyin also has a general understanding of his current position and situation.

First of all, Shi Leiyin knew that after more than four months, he had indeed come to the easternmost point of the Extremely Cold Mountain Range, and he had also successfully entered the southeast near the exit of the mountain range. At the same time, this is the largest human gathering area in the southeast mountain range, and there are about a thousand human villages of different sizes in the large area from the exit to the northern peak, and most of the village chiefs are hunter villages that make a living by hunting ancient dragons or low-level demonic beasts on the extremely cold mountain range, just like the village chief where Mette is. When recounting this paragraph, Mette also deliberately explained the specific meaning of the abandoned village and the scavengers, so that Shi Leiyin understood why Mette appeared in this place.

Secondly, Shi Leiyin also got a specific route on how to leave the Southeast Mountain Range. Although Mette has always lived in the Hunter Village, the farthest time he has ever gone out is the distance he has found the ruins of the abandoned village. However, as a more curious teenager, Mette could learn the exact route out of the mountains from the hunters who wanted to show off their experiences.

Starting from the foot of the mountain where the current abandoned village chief is located, about a day's walk to the south, you can see a mountain road with artificial traces, and you can walk along the mountain road for another three days to reach a large hunter village called Gangba Village. There will be carriages leading directly to the south, and if you don't want or don't have the money to take them, you can follow the route of the carriage for about a week, and you can also leave the mountains, but you are responsible for the safety of the way.

"It turns out that the carriage shop also has a point set up here" Speaking of the carriage shop, Shi Leiyin immediately thought of the Salante carriage shop, and the lily of the valley that he had almost forgotten. Although Shi Leiyin did not see any traces of the carriage during the four-month journey through the mountains, presumably, the carriage of the Salant carriage that Lily of the Valley rode should have also passed through the post station in Jiangbo Village.

After answering Shi Leiyin's question in detail, Mette struggled for a moment, but still took out the pair of double knives found in the house.

"Sir, this is what I found in the house, although I don't know what kind of material it is made of, but it has been left for so long without any damage, it must have been made from the body of a powerful creature. This is the only one I can use to repay you for saving your life, and I believe that they can only play a real role in the hands of a powerful hunter like you."

"Huh, this thing is!" Shi Leiyin was still thinking about what this teenager was going to do when he saw Mette take out the double knives, but when he focused his mind on the double knife blades handed over by the young man, Shi Leiyin immediately became calm. Almost snatching it, Shi Leiyin took the double knives from the young man's hands and put them in front of him to look at them carefully.
