Mu Chen woke up very early, lying on the ground and recalling the location of the nearby village, he knew in his heart that Luo Crocodile had already deceived himself once and was no longer trustworthy, but he remembered the old love and gave them another chance. He planned to go to the nearby village to ask for help in person after going to the black market, and he must have something to gain today.

After thinking for a while, he got up and walked out of the woods, looked south, looking for the direction of the village in his impression, and just saw a wisp of green smoke in the distance rising into the sky, it was the smoke and dust from the houses that were burned down last night in Shanling Village, although the fire had been extinguished overnight, but the charred wood was still smoking, which was clearly visible from Mu Chen's location.

"Is there a fire over there?" asked Katsuki, standing behind him.

"You're up, I'm arguing with you?"

"I heard the sound of you moving and got up, what's the matter over there, is it on fire?"

"I think there's a village over there, you go and check on the situation, I'll go to the black market, and I'll look for you when I'm done." ”

"What are you doing with me?"

"Don't you want to see those two liars? Do you want to listen to all the excuses they make up? If you don't want to, why do you have to force yourself, I'll go alone. You better go to that village to check on the situation, and if there's anything you can do to help, take the initiative, maybe it will come in handy later. ”

"What do you mean, I can still do them any good?"

"To be honest, I'm not sure if Luo Crocodile and Li Jackal will continue to lie to us, but... Anyway, you just go, you help these villagers so that we can beg them to go into the mountains to find people. ”

"Since you can directly ask the villagers for help, why are you going to the black market?"

"There are some things I have to confirm, so don't ask. ”

"Okay, but they're just going to smoke a cigarette, and if it's not a fire, what can I do to help?"

"You see, although the smoke is light, it floats very high, it must have been burning for a long time, and the scale is not caused by a bonfire, it should be a fire, you can see it. ”

The division of labor between the two was clear, Mu Chen summoned the griffin and the black flame horse, he rode the griffin to the black market, and Jia Yue rode the horse to the mountain spirit village.

Luo Crocodile and Li Jackal sat on the chair of the sundeck and fell asleep, they have been waiting here since last night, because the drunkard sent out yesterday did not return overnight, they did not know Mu Chen's movements, and they were not sure when Mu Chen would come to the door, so they had to wait passively, not daring to rest, fortunately, in the middle of the night, the hunter who followed Chunyue came back to report the news, otherwise this night would be in vain.

"Let's sleep for a while, we've been waiting all night, and I can't stand it. ”

"Brother Jackal, it's dawn, what are you sleeping, wait a little longer. ”

Although the two of them said this, neither of them resisted the sleepiness, and fell asleep after a while.

Mu Chen, like yesterday, landed on the periphery of the black market, and after coming down, he went straight to the tulou, and as soon as he reached the fourth floor, he saw Luo Crocodile and Li Jackal, who were paralyzed, sitting there and sleeping peacefully, snoring like thunder. He grabbed Li Jackal's neck from behind, and at the same time slapped Luo Crocodile on the back of the head.

"Pain, pain, who is this?" Li Jackal grabbed Mu Chen's hand and tried to break free.

"Ah, who?" Luo Crocodile, who was beaten, also woke up, looked left and right, and hurriedly greeted Mu Chen with a smile after seeing him.

"I ask you, was it intentional yesterday?"

"Mu Chen, Mu Chen, you let go of Brother Jackal first, I can explain what happened yesterday. ”

"Let go, didn't people find it for you, what is it deliberately or not?" Li Jackal's attitude was arrogant.

Mu Chen let go of his hand and slapped him on the right cheek, and the stall owners who were about to come out of the stall downstairs were stunned when they heard the sound, looking for the source of the sound. Li Jackal's body went limp, and he fell to the ground, his right face was red and swollen, and dark red blood flowed down his cochlea.

Mu Chen kicked the fainted Li Jackal away with his foot, pulled out a chair and sat down, Luo Crocodile jumped up from his seat in fright, and stood in front of him honestly.

"I really have something unspeakable, now the villagers on the border are..."

"Why did you lie to me, and you didn't give you less money, why did you tease me?" Mu Chen interrupted him.

"No, I didn't lie to you, how dare I tease you, that's..."

"Don't talk nonsense, you give me a solid answer, I promise you won't die. Mu Chen interrupted him again, not wanting to hear him make up reasons there.

"I really didn't lie to you, this is the spirit stone you gave, return it to you, you can let me go. Luo Crocodile trembled and took out the spirit stone from his arms and put it on the table.

"I've never treated you badly, I've never felt sorry for you, why lie to me? From now on, if you can't give me a convincing answer, I'll cut off one of your fingers every ten seconds, then your arms and legs, and finally your neck. With that, Mu Chen pressed Luo Crocodile on the table and grabbed his left index finger.

"Mu Chen, you let me go, I'm really... Yes... Ahh

"Mu Chen, I... The middle finger was also broken, and the people downstairs gathered more and more, although they couldn't see the situation upstairs, they still looked up.

"I know the whereabouts of that wasteland woman, I know, I really know. Luo Crocodile spoke at an astonishing speed, and he didn't speak clearly.

"Say what you say, say it again. ”

"I know the whereabouts of the woman you are looking for, she came to the black market yesterday, and I sent someone to follow her and know where she is. Seeing that Mu Chen's hand holding his ring finger loosened, he immediately repeated it clearly.

"In Shanling Village, I can find someone to take you there, please let me go first. ”

"Is that the village on the map to the south of my location?"

"Yes, yes, more than ten kilometers south of where you are looking for someone, is that village. Luo Crocodile couldn't take care of his previous plan, what to take responsibility, win trust, and what to sing double reed to cheat money, he had long been forgotten, and now he just wanted to save his life.

Mu Chen raised his hand and held him, Luo Crocodile slowly got up, his face flushed with pain, and looked at him pleadingly, hoping that he could also let go of the ring finger he was holding.

"If I don't find anyone, I'm sure you know what the consequences are, and this is an advance payment. With that, he broke his ring finger, threw a spirit stone on the table, turned around and went downstairs, Luo Crocodile knelt on the ground with his left hand, and shouted heartbreakingly.

The stall owners saw that someone was going downstairs and hurriedly retreated, everyone didn't dare to look at Mu Chen, and no one dared to ask about the situation, so they waited for him to go away before calling out to the two supervisors, but still no one was willing to go up.

On the other side, when Jiayue arrived at the entrance of Shanling Village, she found the corpse covered by a straw mat, so she dismounted to check, the gate that was usually closed, in order to facilitate the handling last night, Jiayue entered the village along the road after checking the body, looked around and didn't see a person, she walked towards the place where it was still smoking, and heard a noisy sound on the way and followed, just happened to meet the villagers who were about to drive away Chunyue, everything that happened behind was seen by her, and she was extremely angry, summoning skeleton soldiers, to seek justice for Chunyue.

"Sister, why are you here?" Chunyue was incredulous, rubbing her eyes and looking at Jiayue in surprise.

"Fence them off. When the skeleton soldier received the order, he gathered around the villagers with his sword in hand.

"Ah, run, the monster is here again. ”

"Don't, don't kill me. ”

"What's going on, what's going on, who is that woman?"

"It's over, it's over. ”

The villagers were so frightened when they saw such a large number of skeleton soldiers walking towards them that their lives were shortly gone, some immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, some were at a loss, and some were crying out for heaven and earth, making a mess. The skeletons, on the other hand, just surrounded them in the middle and didn't do anything.

"Sister, why are you here, aren't you..."Junyue still couldn't believe it, and asked again.

"What's wrong with your hand?"

"I, I..." Seeing Jiayue's response, Chunyue immediately stepped forward to hug her and cried aggrievedly.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm here, and I won't let anyone bully you. Jiayue touched her head and comforted her in a low voice.

"Sister, they... They..."

"It's okay, say it slowly, don't rush. ”

The two sisters finally met, Chunyue had something to rely on, no longer as desperate as before, Jiayue finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the heart that had been hanging was also put down, and the sisters hugged each other tightly.

The besieged villagers saw that the skeleton soldiers did not move for a long time, and they were not coming to kill them, so some people mustered up the courage to shout: "What are you going to do, this is the human continent." ”

When Jiayue heard this, she slowly let go of Junyue, motioned for her to wait here, and then walked towards the villagers, and the skeleton soldiers immediately made a way, and when she entered, they stood back in place.

"Who was calling just now?"

"Who are you, did you summon these skeleton soldiers? You are a wasteland man..."Before he could finish speaking, Jiayue kicked him in the face, blood and teeth flew out of his mouth, and the villagers who asked him fell unconscious.

"When they call again, they will break all my teeth. Jiayue turned around and went out, and the rest of the villagers all held their mouths, their eyes trembled, and they didn't dare to say anything.

She returned to Junyue's side, carefully checked her shoulder, and asked again, "How did you get this?"

Chunyue recounted how she and the black dragon were attacked in the wasteland, how they came here, how they were stolen and slandered in the black market, how they were injured, and so on.

Jiayue was furious when she heard this, and wanted to kill these shameless villagers immediately, but remembering Mu Chen's words last night, she held back her emotions and held back her anger to appease Chunyue.

"Sister, how did you find me?"

Jia Yue also told her about her experience, and the two of them all came here because of Mu Chen, but one out of curiosity and the other out of concern.

"I didn't expect you to come with Mu Chen, and there is such a coincidence, what about others?"

"He's going to the black market, he'll be here in a minute. ”

"What happened to the black dragon, can't he show up yet?"

"I don't know about this, but I haven't seen him summon him in the past few days, so I guess the injury hasn't healed yet. ”

"When it's ready, I'm going to thank it, if it hadn't done everything to protect me, I'm sure..."

"Why don't you say that if you weren't too easy to trust people, you wouldn't have made it like this?"

"Sister, Mu Chen is not a bad person. ”

"Yes, yes. ”

After the two sisters met, Chunyue became obviously cheerful, swept away the previous pessimism, talked more, and enriched her expressions, and now she was about to meet Mu Chen, this border experience that made everyone painful was finally coming to an end.
