Chapter 17 Worship You as a Teacher?
I don't know how long it took, the vague consciousness gradually woke up in a faint way, and Ye Chen, who opened his eyes slightly, only felt that there seemed to be a figure dangling in front of him: It looks like an old man?
At the same time, a hoarse voice echoed in his ears, like a withered fallen leaf: "Stinky boy, I'm already awake, do you still want to pretend to sleep under my nose?" ”
After speaking, he was not verbose at all, but he saw that the old man who was wearing a tattered robe and had thick hair actually kicked Ye Chen who was lying on the ground directly with his foot, and it seemed that his strength should not be light!
On the other side, accompanied by a heart-rending wail, and then hurriedly rubbed his sore waist with his hands, Ye Chen, who had just woken up, couldn't help but scold: "Do you have any quality?" Lao Tzu is obviously injured, and you are still..."
However, his words had just come to his heart, and Ye Chen, who only felt pain in his flesh, seemed to realize something, so he hurriedly checked his physical injuries and muttered, "How did my injuries recover..."
You must know that although Ye Chen looked like he was jumping around before, in fact, only he knew in his heart how real the pain in his chest was: Gan, who can bear this?
In the next second, he took out a mud-stained wine jug out of nowhere, and saw the old man who was leaning against a dusty statue grinning: "Isn't this nonsense? If your kid dies now, won't the old man lose money? ”
"I mastered the summoning technique at a young age, although I don't dare to say that you are a genius compared to those monsters, but at least you are not stupid, so the old man reluctantly waded into this troubled water..."
Between the words, looking at this guy's triumphant and slightly crazy appearance, Ye Chen couldn't help but swallow nervously, after all, judging from his first instinct, this person is definitely not simple!
Moreover, according to the novels he once read, the protagonist basically meets an old man with great strength, and then gradually reaches the peak of his life with his help: but do I have this kind of ghost luck?
Don't think about it, looking at the dilapidated temple where he is now, Ye Chen, who has nowhere to escape anyway, simply found a place with straw to sit down, and asked indifferently: "Since the seniors are willing to save me, I'm afraid there are other intentions, right?" ”
"I don't believe anyone in these days would be kind enough to save people for free and without any pay, unless, of course, that guy is a fool himself..."
Hearing this, the old man, who was looking up and drinking the last few drops of the liquor in the jug into his throat, couldn't help but shake his head, and sneered: "Stinky boy, this is your fault, you can't think of this world so dark at a young age..."
"Although I admit that I did have selfish intentions to save you at the beginning, it doesn't mean that the old man is a bad person, understand? Don't judge people by their appearance! ”
Slowly stood up, only to see that the old man suddenly came to Ye Chen and stared at him with his right eye, and this sudden move couldn't help but startle Ye Chen: This person can't be a madman, right?
"And that companion of yours, it's just a typical wooden fish head, obviously he is already so conspicuous, and he dares to run around outside with Hitanas, this guy is simply looking for death!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Chen, who was still doubting whether this guy's spirit was normal, couldn't help but be stunned, and then hurriedly asked, "It means that Sias and they were also arrested by you?" Tell me, where are they now? ”
However, even if Ye Chen asked himself so eagerly, the indifferent old man did not look anxious at all, but took the lead in putting up a fight: "Don't worry, they are safe now, just in case, I also specially separated him from Hitanas..."
"But it's you, you still have the leisure to care about the safety of others, and you don't even care about your own life or death, to tell you the truth, it's not necessarily whether you are safe now!"
took out a piece of bacon from his inventory that exuded an inexplicable stench, and the corners of the old man's mouth raised a strange arc, which inevitably aroused suspicion: Could it be human flesh?
Seeing this situation, Ye Chen, who had a faint sense of foreboding, didn't say anything, just stood up silently, and then said: "If you want to kill or kill you, I'm going to find them now anyway!" ”
But as soon as the words fell, before Ye Chen could walk to the door of the broken temple, he was suddenly repelled by an invisible force, and this sudden strangeness suddenly made him frown: It seems that you don't plan to let me go?
"Are you stupid, you stinky boy? Now that the entire Shadow City is in chaos, there is no safe place at all, and besides, you seem to have provoked an existence that you can't afford to provoke, is it possible that you still want to live? ”
Tearing off the shredded bacon with his teeth that were about to fall out, I saw that the old man actually showed a very happy look at this time, which couldn't help but make Ye Chen on the side feel faintly disgusted: Anyway, this thing shouldn't have deteriorated, right?
"To tell you the truth, in fact, from the moment you are ready to flee with Hitanas, your future is already destined to be unpeaceful, so if you want to survive, it is best to listen to the old man's arrangement!"
To be honest, if someone usually dared to talk to him in such an arrogant tone, I'm afraid Ye Chen would have grabbed the other party's collar and served with a heavy punch: Good guy, dare to be so crazy?
But judging from the situation in front of him, Ye Chen obviously didn't have the courage to do so, after all, the old man in front of him would inexplicably give him an invisible pressure, and even a little faintly out of breath.
"I only have a total of thirty gold coins on me now, if you want these, you can take them directly, but I just ask you to let me and my companion live, okay?"
Between the words, although Ye Chen looked very honest on the surface, he was actually frantically trying to open the god-level summoning system behind his back, but it was a pity that this system didn't seem to intend to give him face...
"Stinky boy, you're only going to buy me for thirty gold coins? I think that when the old man was traveling around the major empires, even the emperor had to come to me in person to discuss important matters, and the conditions offered were comparable in money? ”
Hearing this, although he didn't know if the other party was deceiving himself, in order to find a way to get out of here, Ye Chen had no choice but to compliment: "Senior, even if you were brilliant before, aren't you still gnawing carrion here?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm still in a hurry, hurry up and tell me the way to get out of here, otherwise don't blame me for being rude, even if I can't beat you, at least I can hurt you, right?"
However, allowing Ye Chen to threaten himself so intimidatingly, the old man who was still gobbling it up shook his head calmly, and then grinned: "It's actually very easy to leave here..."
"As long as you promise me a condition, I can lift this barrier immediately, and by the way, I don't mind helping you bring your friends over, what do you think? Interested? ”
As soon as he heard this, although he felt that the other party seemed to be planning to trap himself, Ye Chen, who was forced by the situation, had no choice but to respond: "You tell me what the conditions are first, I can think about it..."
In the next second, he came to Ye Chen's eyes in an instant, only to see that the old man actually revealed his left eye hidden under his hair, and muttered: "It's very simple, worship me as a teacher!" ”
