…… There was no ambiguity between him and Olivia, and it felt like he couldn't bear her when he asked this.

But Olivia's smile before he left gave him an ominous premonition.

She must have had some bad intentions.

In fact, Abel and Olivia are not very close, but they joined the dark shadow at the same time, so they are more familiar with each other. But at most, it's just a word, and even the word friend feels a bit exaggerated when used on them.

Anyway, whatever her bad intentions are. He joined the Black Shadow because he had nowhere to live after defecting from the family, so he went to the Black Shadow to seek refuge. Otherwise, he would have been arrested and sealed by the special department for violating the peace regulations, where would there be such a leisurely life.

The peace treaty was a treaty between humans and non-humans in order to live together peacefully, but in fact this treaty is not very fair, it is more biased towards human beings. Because humans are more fragile than non-humans, there are some powerful youkai races that can kill a human by accidentally sneezing, but in the treaty, this is also a crime of murder and must be sealed. There is only one circumstance in which a non-human being is not responsible for killing a human being, and that is when a human intrudes into a non-human living area, he or she is responsible for life and death. In mixed settlements, non-humans are going to give way to humans.

The strong protect the weak, this is an official document in a peace treaty. But in the eyes of many youkai, the strong should rule the weak.

As a result, many youkai have left their families and joined the Dark Shadow, which has nothing to do with this treaty.

Forget it, what does this have to do with him?

If you can't stay here in the future, just go back.

"Eli......" the dark-skinned girl said with a wistful wink, yawning, "you called me early in the morning just so that I could help find a fox?" ”

Eli nodded.

"Your own work, find it yourself." Serena said disdainfully, "You also have wolf blood." ”

"The chain of elven zuò belongs to you." Eli Road.

"Where did the fox lose it?" Serena immediately cheered up and said.

Xu Ning flipped out the map and drew a line on the road above.

"Disappeared in this area a month ago." Xu Ning said, "How is it, did you find it so long ago?" ”

"Are you kidding?" Serena smiled confidently, "Wolves are the best hunters, let alone a month, I can find them in three months." ”

"Then please." Eli took Xu Ning's hand and said to Serina, "Then let's go on the next mission, and you find the fox and then contact us." ”

"Huh? Aren't you with me? ”

"So much work." Eli patted the dictionary-thick book and said, "We're busy. ”

Serena silently looked at the backs of the two and snorted: "There are men and no sisters!" Brother Scum! After saying that, he disappeared in a flash.

"What's next?" Xu Ning asked. As long as the fox can be found, the first task is completed.

"Next...... I don't understand. Eli handed the 'dictionary' to Xu Ning.

Xu Ning opened it suspiciously, and a drop of sweat dripped from his face when he saw the introduction.

"Rush, drive, chase the corpse?" Xu Ning was stunned.

Wait, the style of painting is wrong! This world is a demon...... Yes...... Ghosts.

As soon as Xu Ning's hand was released, the bound book in his hand fell to the ground with a click.

Eli picked up the notebook and read it again.

There is an ancient profession in the countryside that has been passed down for thousands of years, and that is to drive corpses.

Legend has it that the corpse chaser is a sorcerer who uses witchcraft to make the corpse follow him, so as to achieve the purpose of bringing the corpse home. But that's not the case, people in this world who have a little witchcraft skills don't like to do such tasks, let alone waste their spiritual power on driving away corpses. Because the corpse needs to be walked step by step, usually bring people who died in a different place, the distance is far away, a few days and more than a month, and although the money received after being sent home is a lot, compared to the time and energy spent, this is definitely hard money. Besides, this job is heavy and unpleasant. Therefore, the people who do this work are ordinary people.

As for what many people say about letting the corpse jump, it's also because it looks like it's jumping from a distance.

The two use two long bamboo poles to pass through the armpits of all the corpses, and tie the arms and bamboo poles of the corpse with a rope, and then the person in front of them knocks the gong to open the way, while preventing the animal from biting, while letting the living avoid it, and the bamboo pole is tough, so it is not difficult to understand that the corpse is "jumping" with its arms straightened, which is the most commonly used method of carrying the corpse.

Nowadays, peace treaties have been signed between the races, and technology has gradually developed. There are ordinary energy-saving and environmentally friendly cars in the places where humans live, and there are monster buses in mixed areas, and the transportation of corpses has long been done without the need to drive corpses, so this industry has gradually disappeared from people's sight. But in poor and remote places where there are no monster buses, and in villages where cars can't reach them and can only walk on foot, driving out corpses is still the only way to get people who have left their hometowns to return to their roots, and the only way they can afford to get up.

And now the person who reported the strange incident was a corpse chaser, who was walking in a misty valley deep in the mountains with his apprentice when he and his apprentice were driving the three corpses back, and the corpse was lost......

That's right, lost! I don't even know how and when I lost it. By the time they came out of the fog, the bamboo poles were empty.

The corpse chaser and his apprentice were sure that they had tied the corpse well, and that the two of them were carrying bamboo poles one after the other, and it was impossible for them to slip off.

And before they were bound, they had also used a compass with spiritual power to test these bodies...... There is nothing wrong with that.

So, the corpse itself is fine, the question is whether there is something in that fog.

The corpse chaser has been in this business for decades, and he is absolutely bold, but he does not have the courage to enter that misty valley for the second time. He believed that it was the fog's problem, that place he had been there before, but it was the first time he encountered the fog. It stands to reason that there shouldn't be fog in the weather over there.

In short, it's weird.

That's why it's reported to the special department.

Now it is assigned to Xu Ning and Eli as a mission.

Eli read it a few times, probably understood the meaning, and was about to close the book when his eyes swept to a red stamp marked below, about a centimeter in size.

"What is this?" Eli asked.

Xu Ning raised his head, leaned over and took a look, "This is the meaning that the mission may be dangerous, so we should be cautious." ”
