For Qi Wang, who grew up alone, crossing the jungle is not a big problem, not to mention that this path has always existed, but it is just rugged and winding, three days of thirsty drinking mountain springs, hungry eating dry food, really not picking some wild fruits, or perching on the thick trunk of a tree at night, or lighting a bonfire and curling up in a cave, Qi Wang's rich life experience of growing up with hardships will not make him much confused.

Three days later, he finally walked out of this continuous blue wave mountain range, out of the place where he had lived for fifteen years.

On the way, he ran into a group of people from Lanbo Village, how could they be as fast as Qi Wang, but the latter did not stop, nor did he appear in front of them, but silently bypassed them, he and their destination was different, the Shell City in front of him was just the starting point of Qi Wang, and for them, it was the end.

Wu Er was right, Li Qing was indeed dead.

But Qi Wang felt that there were some things that needed an obsession, Li Qing had described to him the strength of the great magician, and also described the outside world to him, when holding the relic, Qi Wang even felt that this relic was beating, like a human heart.

Even if there is no hope, what is the point of hope?

Qi Wang tightened the burden on his back and walked towards the huge town in the distance that was prostrate on the ground like a black giant beast.

Gounod's geographical location is remote, the water and soil are harsh, and the resources are quite scarce, so a village like Lan Bo can already be regarded as an excellent side of the water and soil, walking in the outer circle of the Shell City, Qi Wang understands what is called poverty, these soft sand soil can't grow crops at all, looking around, even the only well is dry, fortunately, this situation has only improved after gradually approaching the Shell City.

The reason why Guno likes to plunder is also inseparable from their environment, they are actually the same as those tribes on the ancient ice field, they are all for survival, but one side will be satisfied, and the other side will be insatiable.

Qi Wang approached the city gate, the quaint thick gate was open, and there were no guards, where did there be any soldiers guarding this kind of border town, there were only scattered shops on the streets of the city, it was obviously broad daylight, but there were not many people to see.

Occasionally, people in the village come to Shell City, according to their description, Shell City should be a very lively place, not like what is in front of him, but after thinking about it again, Qi Wang will understand why, I am afraid that as the leader of the goods said that day, the arrival of the little corpse made the entire Shell City tremble.

Qi Wang walked into the city gate, he was penniless, he had to find a place to settle down first, and then save a little money, not too much, as long as he could afford a map, some emergency dry food, and could understand the next direction.

Before he could take a few steps, his ears moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at the alley on the side, where the sun did not shine in the dark mouth, and a thin arm reached out and waved at him with difficulty: "Help...... Help me! ”

Qi Wang stood up straight, staring at the ragged man who was moving half of his body exposed to the sun, his body had shrunk due to long-term malnutrition, his whole body was covered with skin and bones, and his skin was sickly yellow.

Qi Wang walked up to the ragged man, took out two red fruits picked on the road from his arms, and put them in the man's palm.

The ragged man who had eaten the two red fruits regained a little strength, and continued to look at Qi Wang pitifully.

Qi Wang sighed lightly, took out the last two red fruits from his arms, bent down and put them down gently: "These are the last two, you can see a big white-shirted tree on the mountain path outside the city for seven or eight miles, and you can find these fruits by walking another mile behind the tree, there are many, many of them." ”

The ragged man hurriedly grabbed the red fruit and swallowed it heavily, not knowing whether he heard it or not.

As soon as Qi Wang wanted to get up, the thin man who was originally swallowing food suddenly showed a fierce look, threw away half of the fruit in his hand, jumped up like a tiger and leopard, and pounced on Qi Wang, and his thin arm wrapped around Qi Wang's neck.

Qi Wang's heart was shocked, and when he reacted, he was already restrained.

This seemingly thin and weak thin man has a lot of strength, coupled with the sudden outburst, even Qi Wang didn't expect it, after being locked up, Qi Wang also began to struggle, don't look at Qi Wang is just a teenager, the strength in the village except Yang Sanjin really no one can wrestle with him, immediately he grabbed the arm on his neck with both hands and pulled it out, the thin man looked panicked, his full strength was not comparable to a teenager? Seeing that his arms were gradually being pulled out, and when he was about to lose his advantage, the thin man couldn't hold back any longer.

"Scar!"

The thin man roared at the top of his throat, and a figure hurriedly ran out of the shadows of the alley, copying the green brick in his hand and slapping it on Qi Wang's head, and the red blood flowed down Qi Wang's head, and this heavy blow also made him lose consciousness, and his body fell to the ground softly.

The thin man kicked off Qi Wang, who was pressed on his body, and staggered to his feet, his face slightly pale.

The man who was called a scar was also unclothed, lean, and looked yellow and thin, except for a centipede-like knife wound on his chin, which was left by the fight with the ruffians in the city when he was young.

The scarred man looked around, the movement here did not attract the attention of others, the only few pairs of eyes heard the movement and lost interest after paying attention for a while, and he was a chick who appeared out of nowhere, and he didn't understand the worldly ways at all.

If you're lucky, maybe tomorrow there will be a poor man in the stinky ditch outside the city gate, and if you're a little unlucky, the next time you see this kid, you should be a dog for someone else.

The two of them each pulled one of Qi Wang's legs and secretly dragged them into the depths of the alley, and soon disappeared, leaving only a blood-stained green brick and a little blood stain exposed to the sun.

Darkness is everywhere.

Qi Wang only felt a headache, he opened his eyes vaguely, there was a flickering firelight, in a trance, he heard the sound of someone talking, the sound became louder and louder, and the three people who were arguing seemed to have found Qi Wang who was slowly waking up.

One palm grabbed Qi Wang's hair and lifted it, it was the scarred man from before, he shouted at the fat man wearing a fox fur scarf on the opposite side: "Captain Qi, you can look carefully, this is a rare young man, don't look at him not very good-looking, but that strength even our brothers almost capsized in the gutter." ”

The thin man chimed in: "That's right, that's right, this kind of kid must be worth a hundred silver coins, right?" ”

The fat man squinted his eyes, carried a pot of oil lamp, illuminated Qi Wang's face, and smacked his lips: "You two damn ruffians and scumbags, just such a little devil with thighs no thicker than my arm, will cost a hundred silver coins?" Why don't you go to the City Lord's Mansion to rob? ”

The man pinched Qi Wang's arm and said coldly: "Forty silver coins!" ”

"Forty?"

The man with the scar screamed as if he had been slashed again.

The fat man snorted coldly: "Love to sell or not, uncle, I want a lot of good slaves, is it possible that there are still two of you missing?" It's all crooked melons and cracked dates. ”

The thin man's face changed, and he dragged the angry scarred man, who took a deep breath and said, "Minimum seventy silver coins!" ”

Seeming to be a little unwilling, the man with the scar let go of Qi Wang's hair and continued towards the fat man: "Captain Qi, the two of us have found no less than twenty for you since the beginning of spring this year, right?" Every business is risky, not to mention the rumors that the little corpse outside has come to the vicinity of Shell City, you see, how can anyone dare to go out to run orders during this time? ”

The fat man sneered, and his fingers stroked the fox fur around his neck: "Okay, for the sake of the little corpse of the gods, fifty silver coins, this is my last concession." ”

The man with the scar clenched his palms, and only after half a sound did he squeeze out a smile: "Deal!" ”

The fat man walked back to the table behind him, picked up a bag full of silver coins from it and threw it to the scar man, and the two quickly left with their heads down, leaving the fat man alone in the gloomy basement.

Qi Wang, who had already sobered up a lot, began to look around.

His arms were shackled and chained to the bronze lion's head on the wall, apparently cast in pure copper that was indestructible, cutting off anyone trapped here from escaping.

The fat man picked up the wine glass in front of him, shook it gently, and a pair of indifferent little eyes swept over Qi Wang, who was sitting with his back against the wall not far away, and he saw Qi Wang's gaze finally stop at a pile of torn clothes on the side.

"Snort."

The fat man let out a sound of disdain from his throat, and the two guys had just begun to search with great interest, but they couldn't find a single hair, and there was nothing in the bag except a pile of torn clothes, and there was even a stack of tattered monk's robes that had become strips of cloth.

The two of them weren't even interested in looking at it, so they hurriedly flipped it over and threw it aside.

The fat man poured red wine into the wine glass, then got up and walked to Qi Wang with small steps, and said: "I didn't expect the two Liu brothers to be so good at tricks, and they have caught at least more than 20 in half a year. ”

The blood in Qi Wang's hair had already coagulated into lumps, and the few coagulated blood marks on his cheeks looked a little terrifying.

The man took a sip of half a cup, then poured the remaining half a cup on top of Qi Wang's head, and said lightly: "Wash yourself, it makes people sick to their stomachs." ”

The crimson red liquid drenched Qi Wang's hair, flowed down his cheeks, and finally burrowed into the clothes under his neck, leaving a lot of it dripping down his sharp chin to the ground, merging into small streams.

The fat man put down the wine glass, clapped his hands, stretched his waist, yawned and left, Qi Wang watched the man's figure disappear into the depths of the deep passage with an expressionless face, and only Qi Wang was left in this basement, and there were those slightly flickering lights.

After a while, Qi Wang moved his body, the iron lock was not long, but it was enough for him to be able to get to the pile of clothes not far away, Qi Wang rummaged through the pieces of broken monk's robes, and finally found the golden beads wrapped in a piece of clothing, the two guys lost interest in these broken clothes after a rough turn, and threw them aside, and it was like this, this bead wrapped in the monk's robe could survive.

Qi Wang grabbed the beads in his hand tightly, the iron lock dragged, rubbing on the ground to make a sound of gold and iron, he chose a comfortable position, shrunk in the corner, wiped the blood and wine stains on his face with his sleeve robe, and was silent.

These iron chains that are the thickness of a thumb may not be able to be cut even if they are cut with a sharp bronze sword, so Qi Wang simply gave up struggling.

The relics flashed with a faint light, and Qi Wang held his hands in the palms of his hands, like holding a heavy treasure, and his eyes were different from usual.

Today's Shell City gave him a blow to the head, and it also made him empathize with Master Li's words again.

Kindness is precious, but if kindness does not grow teeth, it is weak
