By the time I got back to the city, it was completely dark.

When he approached the boundary of Shanshui City, Chen Yiming collected the Giant Tailed Manta Dragon, and then quickly returned to the city boundary with the Explosive Demon with his telekinetic ability.

Since there were no lights, people thought of a new and old way.

Bonfire.

Oil candles.

The oil is extracted from plants and animals and then processed to make candles.

It's just that food is already scarce now, and there are very few people who are willing to use the fat from animals to make oil candles.

And the candle has a limited illumination distance.

In contrast, campfires are the simplest, and the wood from the forest is inexhaustible.

A single tree is enough to burn for days.

After drying the branches, cut them into small sections, and a large bonfire is raised.

Bright firelight burned in the street, illuminating the whole street, and the firelight became a guiding light in the night.

In the forest, if you get lost at night, you can climb a tree and find your way home from the treetops according to the light of the fire.

Someone is specifically giving firewood to the fire, and this live calculation is a sought-after job.

Basically, people who come out of the forest, as long as they have a good harvest, basically will not be stingy with a little food as a reward for adding to the fire.

This position was very sought-after, and after several battles, it was finally occupied by the university students in the northern suburbs.

Because there are many college students, and they are grouped together by the school.

It's not that they are cohesive, but there are a lot of boarding students in the university, and these residents are basically out of town and can't go home, so they can only hold together.

At this stage, it is rare to have such a cohesive group of tens of thousands of people, except for universities.

The company is largely disintegrated, with each employee having their own family and living in different parts of the city.

The car is out of gas, how to keep in touch with each other so far away, and many people don't know where their colleagues' homes are, except for those who have a good relationship.

Junior high school and high school are all home from school, and there are still adults at home, and children rarely have the right to speak.

Universities are different, they live in only one place at this stage - student dormitories.

A school with thousands of students living next to each other in a dozen or so dormitories.

Classes, dormitories, student unions, clubs, couples, and fellow villagers are inextricably linked to these independent college students.

Compared with the reality of adults, college students are also mixed with the blood and "friendship" that are not deeply involved in the world.

It can also be said that this is a coincidental factor born in the environment.

......

Coming out of the forest, Chen Yiming was followed by the Blaster Demon, and the appearance of the Blaster Demon's unique demon caused countless people to exclaim.

Isn't this the legendary demon!

A pair of bat wings, and a humanoid body.

Sensing the gazes of others around him, the Blaster Demon's eyes were a little impatient.

This is also the first time that Chen Yiming has let the explosive demon appear in public.

Head down the fork in the road next to the campfire, which and the parking lot in the fork have been turned into a stall market.

Compared with the previous days, the goods on these stalls are undoubtedly much richer.

Chen Yiming even saw a food seller, and the stall was written on cardboard - "30 catties of wild boar, trade a kobold (live only)"

Food is still expensive, but in a sense it's not very scarce.

The strong do not lack food, and the weak are still struggling on the line of life and death.

"A wild boar has hundreds of catties of meat, and you want to exchange thirty catties of meat for a live kobold, you are too greedy. Someone said.

"It's not expensive, where is it expensive, have you ever eaten pork?"

"You're right...... Who hasn't eaten the same!"

"Have you eaten in the last week? The man sitting in front of the sign sneered.

"Kobolds are one-star monsters, and most kobolds live in groups, which weigh at least 100 catties, and you only have 30 catties of meat......"

"Then you go eat kobolds and goblins, can you eat them, there are wild boar meat delicious?"

“......”

Kobolds and goblins have certainly been eaten, and people eat anything when they are hungry.

It's just humanoids.

It's just that the meat of kobolds and goblins is not delicious, and their meat is not weird, but really hard to eat.

The meat is woody, bitter and sour, and many heavy spices are added to mask their meaty taste.

Therefore, the price of spices is also rising, and the price will not come down in the short term until new spice substitutes appear.

"Boss, what do you want?" Many people saw the unfamiliar explosive demon behind Chen Yiming, although they had never seen this kind of monster, but the appearance of its demon was too recognizable.

Especially standing with the surrounding goblin goblin slimes is completely standing out from the crowd.

There were more than a dozen bags of salt on the stall in front of me.

Chen Yiming picked up the salt and checked it, but he hadn't unpacked it yet.

"How did you sell it?"

"Hey, then it's up to you to come up with what you can trade. Said the man sitting behind the stall.

"Then exchange a pound of meat for a bag of salt. Chen Yiming said.

The bag of salt at the stall is 500g.

"This ......" The boss was a little embarrassed, he glanced at the demon behind Chen Yiming, folded his hands and said cautiously: "Is it okay to exchange two catties of meat for a bag of salt? ”

Chen Yiming glanced at it, and there were a total of twelve bags of salt and two bags of monosodium glutamate on the stall.

This vendor used to run a grocery store, right?

"I asked for it all, 20 pounds of meat. Chen Yiming said.

"Okay, no problem. The vendor directly agreed.

Chen Yiming asked the Blaster Demon to go back to the farm to get the meat, he remembered that there seemed to be goblin meat in the farm, and the goblin meat was not delicious, so it happened to be traded.

These modern condiments may never be tasted again, so simply buy more.

What Chen Yiming didn't know was that the news of a person with a demonic summoning beast appearing in the bazaar spread.

Some people with ulterior motives rushed to the bazaar.

......

Chen Yiming was followed by the Blaster Demon, who was like a bodyguard, with several large pockets hanging from the sharp horns on his wings, and several large pockets on his left and right hands.

There are also some snacks like chips, cookies, seaweed, etc.

"Eh, this brother wait, wait, wait. "As soon as I came out of the market street, a group of more than a dozen people walked briskly not far away.

The group was dressed in black clothes and black pants, and although the style was different, the color was the same.

The leader was a man in his thirties, with a slightly dark lips, and two inconspicuous crow's feet at the corners of his eyes when he smiled.

After walking in, he directly handed over the handbag in his hand to Chen Yiming's palm.

It's heavy, I don't know what's inside, but I can vaguely see that there seems to be a smoke......

"Brother, you are so powerful, you can actually get such a powerful monster, this is the most powerful under your hands. ”

“......”

Chen Yiming's face was delicate.

"Well, of course it took a lot of effort to subdue it. ”

Chen Yiming returned the things in his hand to him.

"It's all about making friends, don't get me wrong. The man's face straightened.

He didn't directly say that the purpose of his trip was to invite Chen Yiming to join, but changed his painting style. "In that case, are you free tonight, let's have dinner together?"

Chen Yiming smiled and shook his head, he was not in a hurry.

There was a commotion in the distance, and someone else was approaching.

Chen Yiming thought silently in his heart, he finally came, and it was not in vain that he deliberately exposed the explosive energy demon.
