Chapter 2 Waiting for the Rabbit
Chapter 2: Waiting for the Rabbit
In recent years, the war between humans and soul beasts has become more and more tense, so naturally more orphans have been born, either after the heroes who defended the territory, or the lonely children whose parents were taken away by the soul beasts in the city.
Wind Whisper Town, originally it was not called Wind Whisper Town, and it has been a matter of recent years to change to Wind Whisper Town, and it is said that it was changed to commemorate a female soul pet master who died to protect the town.
It was a stunningly beautiful woman, so beautiful that the people in the town didn't know what words to use to describe it, of course, this was not the point, the point was that she saved 100,000 lives in a town with her life!
No one knows her name, and no one knows where she came from, but when the overwhelming insect tide hit, when the people in the town were desperate, she appeared out of thin air, harnessed the extremely powerful wind whispering beast, and defeated the insect tide with her own strength, but unfortunately the manpower was sometimes poor, and the woman also fought and died at the last moment.
I don't know her name and origin, so in honor of her, the people of the town named the town after one of her most powerful soul pets, the Wind Whispering Beast, which is also the origin of the Wind Whispering Town.
And a group of little beggars in Xia Yang are one of the few orphans after the insect tide.
It's another sunny day, and it's a rare day of good weather for most people in Windwhisper.
But not everyone likes such good weather, such as flowing winds.
Walking on the streets of Xiyang, feeling the strong care of the midsummer sun, the flowing wind changed into an expression of bitterness and hatred, and he felt that he was about to melt.
"Man, you don't like this kind of ghost weather either, do you?" Wiping his sweat and watching at the petrified bats that had somehow moved from his shoulders to the placket of his clothes, Flowing Wind pulled his collar again, trying to make his combat companion as comfortable as possible.
"Squeak~~" The petrified bat in its arms responded listlessly, and shrunk at the same time, it is not afraid of heat, but it really doesn't like such bright daylight.
"Hold on a little longer, and when I find my goal, we'll find a place to cool off. With a word of comfort, Liufeng walked away, frowning and looking at the passers-by.
Liufeng is just a code name, as for the name, it has not been used for more than twenty years, and even he himself can't remember it clearly. After more than 20 years of hard work, he is just a third-level silver killer in Rakshasa Mountain. King gold, silver, bronze and iron, there are gold medal killers above him, there are ace killers, there are four levels, and there are five levels.
However, he is extremely satisfied with his current situation, the status of copper and iron is too low, and the silver medal is just right, as for the gold medal and even the trump card, it is to fight with his life, Liufeng does not have this awareness, with his strength, in the current position, he feels just right.
You don't have to face high-risk tasks, you have a little power in your hands, although you are a killer, but your life is quite nourishing. Of course, after more than 20 years of hard work, he can be regarded as a little qualified, so in a certain sense, he is not a pure killer now, and the organization will occasionally give him some tasks that are not difficult but require qualifications, such as this time.
As the largest underground organization in the whole continent, Rakshasa Mountain undertakes businesses including but not limited to assassination, protection, treasure hunting, hunting and even selling high-quality soul pet masters.
So how to replenish talents? As an underground organization, they naturally can't recruit members openly, so they will target those orphans who no one cares about, although the quality is really not good, but as long as the base is large enough, there will always be some outstanding talents, in the soul pet continent, which is not a peaceful place, the most important thing is orphans, especially in a border place like Fengyu Town, which is rich in orphans, quality and quantity.
And Liufeng's mission this time is to sweep the entire Guangling City area, collect a hundred orphans and send them to a special training camp in Rakshasa Mountain. With such a large base, it is naturally impossible to transport it at one time, and he has submitted more than ninety people one after another in the previous half month, and Fengyu Town is his last stop.
"When this mission is completed, I may be able to apply to be transferred to the rear as a steward. Liufeng thought like this, he was already thirty-seven years old, it was difficult for his strength to improve, and he was tired of the life of a killer, so it was time to make plans early.
"Yo, I've found it!" was thinking, when Liufeng's eyes lit up and he spotted his target at the door of a remote tailor's shop.
"Aunt Zhang, the silver is for you, Xiaozhuang and I will trouble you with their clothes, thank you again. Xia Yang raised his head, handed the silver in his hand to Aunt Zhang, and bowed politely.
Aunt Zhang is an ordinary person, an ordinary tailor, and occasionally helps Xia Yang and others in their lives on weekdays, and this time she promised to make a set of clothes for Xia Yang and others at cost price, so Xia Yang's heart is full of gratitude.
"It's easy to say, the little ones have grown up. Aunt Zhang took the silver with a smile and touched Xia Yang's head lovingly.
"When the clothes are ready, let your Uncle Zhang send them to you. ”
"How can you trouble Uncle Zhang, I'll take it myself. Xia Yang enjoyed Aunt Zhang's touch, and sensibly refused.
"We'll talk about that then. Aunt Zhang's tone was very pleased. If the bear child in his own house can be so sensible, he can save a lot of worry about himself.
"Thank you, Aunt Zhang, then I'll go back first. ”
"Go, go, go. Aunt Zhang sent Xia Yang away with a smile, but she didn't know that there would be no goodbye for this time.
In a place where no one is paying attention, Liufeng fell leisurely behind Xia Yang, he can directly find Xia Yang, but he doesn't plan to expose it too early, according to his experience, the little beggar in front of him must have accomplices, if he asks so directly, the other party may betray his companion, but it may not be, in case he encounters the master of righteousness, it will take more effort at that time, but as long as he hangs far away, the little beggar will naturally turn with his companion and abduct and sell children, Liufeng is professional.
It was indeed as he expected, Xia Yang didn't know that he had been targeted, but happily returned to his small stronghold, a dilapidated courtyard, this courtyard is actually the courtyard of the Da Zhuang family, but Da Zhuang's parents died in a beast tide, and Da Zhuang has become an orphan since then, and then it is a small group such as Xia Yang, and then the Da Zhuang family has naturally become the stronghold of the little beggars, but because the little beggars don't know how to repair and take care of it, so in a few years, the small courtyard has become more and more dilapidated.
At this time, Da Zhuang and other little beggars were not at home, and Xia Yang continued to go out after drinking the well water, and they had to run around for a living. Under the leadership of Xia Yang, the current little beggars rarely go out to beg, the geographical location of Fengyu Town is important, there are often soul pet masters in and out of the Flying Insect Mountains, with the flow of people, it will naturally drive economic growth, the little beggars either guide people and run errands, or cheat to get sympathy, in short, they can barely maintain food and clothing, if they are lucky enough to meet the young lady of the rich and noble family, they are generous, and sometimes they give a little reward, which is enough for them to use for a long time.
However, not everyone is so good-natured, so it's normal to get beaten up once in a while.
And the silver medal killer Liufeng glanced thoughtfully at the back of Xia Yang leaving. Quietly entered the courtyard of the little beggars, and after inspecting the circle, he had already determined that this was indeed the stronghold of a small beggar, and according to various signs, he learned that there were seven little beggars living in the yard.
"It didn't take much effort!" nodded with satisfaction, and found a shady place in the yard to sleep, this time he planned to wait for the rabbit!
