"So the two of you knew each other before?" Sitting at the wooden table in the tavern, he asked the two people opposite.

"Not really, we only met a few days ago." Lai Ruoxue grunted and poured a big sip of wine and said.

"Meet me, my name is Yi Shuihan, the one who is Xiao Xiao and Yi Shuihan." The handsome man in a white robe sitting next to Lai Ruoxue stretched out his right hand to the high pillow.

Gao Zuo reached out and shook him. He remembered that this person was the "artistic" poet he had met in the Drunken Man's Pavilion before, dancing swords, drinking, and reciting poems.

"I heard you're also good at writing poetry? The drunkard doesn't mean to drink, but to care about the mountains and rivers? What a poem, the Ouyang boss of the Drunkard Pavilion has engraved your poems on the board and hung them in the store. Yi Shuihan looked at Gao Zhen and smiled, picked up the wine jug on the table, and poured the wine into his wine gourd.

"Actually, I didn't write it, it was written by our sages in this world, and I just used it for reading." Gao Zhen said slightly embarrassed.

"There are a lot of talented and beautiful people in the world!" Yi Shuihan said, raised his eyes, and looked at Gao Zhen with very strange eyes, and saw that he was numb.

Hey, this guy doesn't have any bad habits, okay, I'd better stay away from him. He and Lai Ruoxue are so close, don't they also treat her as a man. Gao Zhen thought so in his heart, and still drank silently in his movements.

He happened to bump into these two guys who were talking in front of the bookshelf in the stone recording platform, and he didn't want to disturb the people in the platform who were seriously consulting the information, so he brought Lai Ruoxue and Yi Shuihan out and had lunch together in this tavern.

Of course, the cost of this lunch is AA, and there is no money for a high pillow.

"Why did you go to the stone recording platform to check the information? Didn't you go back to Yunyanmen to take care of your sister? Lai Ruoxue knocked on the table in front of Gao Zhen and asked.

"I asked the people from Yunyanmen to take care of her, and I went outside to find medicine for her myself." Gao replied briefly, remembering what his sister looked like.

"What medicine? Did you find the relevant information in the stone recording platform? Lai Ruoxue asked.

"I haven't even thought about looking for it, I've heard that the herb is going to be found in the south. I'm not at the third order yet, so it's dangerous to go there. Gao Zhen shook the flask in his hand and said.

"I didn't expect you to not even have a third order, so you just went to find information about the promotion materials?" Lai Ruoxue raised her eyelashes.

What does it mean to "not even have a third order"? Gao Zhen was a little angry when he heard her words, and glanced at her. didn't answer her question, picked up the food with chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth, and decided not to pay her back.

"Brother Pillow, Ruoxue and I are going to take on a mission, I wonder if you are interested in joining?" Yi Shuihan suddenly said to Gao Zhen.

"Huh! Didn't you say you wouldn't tell anyone about it? Originally, the task reward for two people is pitiful, and if three people share it, even one meal is not enough! Lai Ruoxue jumped up violently and punched Yi Shuihan.

Gao Zhen thought that his materials had not been collected yet, and he originally wanted to refuse Yi Shuihan's invitation, but seeing that Lai Ruoxue's reaction was so big, he suddenly became a little interested in the task they were talking about.

"What is the task that Brother Yi is talking about? I would like to hear about it. Gao Zhen asked.

"Eh, good pillow! My sister made a lot of money with you last time, and you don't know the return, and now you want to rob your sister's job? You don't want to die? Okay, I'll shoot a chess piece through your head? Lai Ruoxue threatened loudly.

"That's the task, let's see for myself." Yi Shuihan took out a task card from his arms and handed it to Gao Zhen's hand.

Gao Zhen took the task card, and under Lai Ruoxue's murderous eyes, he looked at the front and back.

The front of the sign reads: "Mission: Destroy the Fire Beast, Difficulty: 3-4 stars, Posted by: Pray for the Rain Village Chief, Reward: 6 Silver Dollars." ”

The reverse side of the sign reads: "Strange beasts have recently appeared in Qiyu Village, and according to eyewitnesses, it is a monster covered in flames, extremely ferocious, burning buildings, and eating people." It is not known exactly what kind of creature this fire beast is. It has appeared three times, causing property and personal damage to three villagers. Now we are looking for brave people to help Pray for Rain Village get rid of strange beasts and restore peace to the villagers! Thank you very much! Note: The three times the Fire Beast haunted was at night, and blackened footprints were found afterwards. ”

Gao Zhen glanced at Lai Ruoxue with slanted eyes, it was clearly written that it was 6 silver dollars, even if the three of them divided it equally, each person could get 2 silver dollars, which was not as exaggerated as she said at all. Has this gambling guy been called for money recently? Gao Zhen thought she was just a little greedy before, but I didn't expect the real her to be so greedy.

"Brother Pillow, I'll tell you the truth, I took this task in the Chihiro Tower. As a result, I was bumped into by this girl and insisted on cooperating with me, but she was dead-faced, and in the end I had to agree. Who knew that she was such an unreliable person. It's been three days, and she's been in the gambling house every day. I can say that she only agreed to come to this stone recording station with me today to check the information of the strange beast, and it turned out that she was still talking to me in such a serious place. I've always been reluctant to work with uneducated people. ”

"I have to meet Brother Pillow today, it is very fate, if Brother Pillow is willing, I will drive this girl who does not learn and have no skills, and go to this rain village with Brother Pillow to save the common people. You can also talk about poetry on the way, so happy! Yi Shuihan once again stretched out his right hand to Gao Zhen.

A chill rose up his back, and he thought to himself, this Yi Shuihan can't really have that kind of fetish, right? He found out that Lai Ruoxue was actually a woman, so now he turned his target to me! What else do you say talking about poetry on the road, vomit, no, it's a little disgusting.

"You dead dog, my mother won't kill you today!" Lai Ruoxue stepped on the bench with a snap, picked up the wine jug on the table and was about to smash it towards Yi Shuihan's head.

"This female guest officer! If you break the flask, you will lose money! Seeing this, the shopkeeper on the side hurriedly shouted.

"Cut!" Hearing the word loss, Lai Ruoxue softened and threw the wine jug back on the table angrily.

"Brother Yi, may I ask where is this 'Prayer for Rain Village'?" I want to ask about the general location of the mission so that I can arrange my itinerary.

"This rain village is right next to a forest near the Blazing Yuan Mountains. If you take a horse-drawn carriage, you can get there in about a day. Yi Shuihan told Gao Zhen.

"Next to the forest near the Blazing Yuan Mountains?" Sit back and be shocked, isn't that the location where you collect the iron ore? A strange beast of fire appeared in the village of Prayer Rain, and charred footprints were found? Could it be that all of this has something to do with the thing that the Blazing Yuan Sect sent the horse team out to find?

Gao Ji remembered that when he returned to the forest after mining, he found a row of charred black footprints with the smell of blood on the ground. The trail of footprints stretched in a certain direction, and the horse team sent by the Blazing Yuan Sect followed suit. Thinking about it in the light of the map, he realized that the direction of the footprints was the edge of the forest.

He suddenly became intrigued by the task.

"Brother Yi, after you checked the information today, did you find anything? Are there any references to this creature in the sources about the beast? Gao asked as he pointed to the description of "Fire Beast" on the quest board.

"It's a pity that we haven't found any beasts that fit these conditions perfectly. I think it could be a scorching wolf or a scorching bear or something like that, but scorching wolves and scorching bears are generally found during the day, and humans don't attack humans unless they enter their territory. Yi Shuihan said with a frown.

It seems that this matter may really have something to do with the Blazing Yuan Sect. The Blazing Yuan Sect is also related to the Demon Sect, and the Demon Sect is related to the "Plum Blossom", and the "Plum Blossom" is related to the younger sister. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this task might be the key for him to understand the whole thing, find a breakthrough, and sort out his head.

"Brother Yi, if you don't dislike it, I will cooperate with you, but ......" Gao Zhen looked at Lai Ruoxue, who was sitting on the side and was a little deflated, "Let's take her with you!" ”

When Lai Ruoxue heard Gao Zhen say this, her eyes suddenly glowed with infinite brilliance.

"She?" Yi Shuihan turned his head to look at the man beside him, who was not a man, a woman or a woman, and found that she had already run to the side of the high pillow.

"I knew it was best to sit on my brother's back. Pillow brother, come, sister kiss one~" Lai Ruoxue pulled the sleeve of the pillow and swung it around, wanting to put her lips up and kiss him.

Gao Zhen looked at her, and his stomach churned.

Vomit!

He pushed hard and pushed Lai Ruoxue from the stool to the ground.
