As Boro walked back to the Peony Pavilion, he kept thinking back to the scene he had just seen.

"Chloe knelt down to me for the outcasts of the kingdom, but that's all I could do to help them," Boro began to feel a little guilty.

Although what happened to that group of people had nothing to do with them, and the person who caused them was not themselves, I don't know why I felt deep self-blame.

Standing on the edge of a bustling street, behind you is a quiet, dark residential area.

The faces of these people here seem to be filled with happiness and joy, but what is really hidden under this mask

Returning straight to the Peony Pavilion, looking at the various noisy scenes on the first floor at this time, Boro couldn't help but start to feel a little heartache.

"Boro" Sister Peony saw him in front of the door, and enthusiastically walked up and took his arm and walked inside.

"Why did it take so long to come back, did you encounter any troublesome tasks?"

Boro collected his emotions and shook his head, "No, I spent a little more time today to complete all the remaining tasks in the East End." ”

"It's all done. Peony's face showed surprise, "Then you are really amazing, Master Xue Ren has been waiting here for a long time." ”

"Xue Ren," Boro asked repeatedly, he might be able to clear his mind or "where are the others now?"

"It's in the flower gallery where you guys drank the day before yesterday, go quickly. Peony pushed him forward, and she smelled some inexplicable smell from Boro's body, some like blood, more like a foul smell.

"Maybe he's back so late today because he's gone to that place again. ”

She had also heard about the events that had taken place in the Exorcist Guild's stronghold during the day.

Boro walked to the shore of the drunken lake, and Xue Ren was sitting there alone, drinking, with an impatient look on his face.

"Friend Xue Ren, I'm sorry to keep you waiting here for so long. Boro smiled apologetically and walked briskly.

"I've just arrived, and you can see that the bottle is still full. Xue Ren picked up the wine bottle on the table and approached Boro

"I'm afraid this isn't the first bottle of wine. ”

Xue Ren listened to Boro's words and laughed, "In the past two days, my father has asked me to deal with some family affairs, so I don't have much opportunity to accompany you." I was also in a hurry, so I rushed back as soon as possible. ”

Saying that, Xue Ren poured a glass of wine for Boro: "Brother, don't blame me." ”

"I can't say that, I'm afraid that even if you come to me during this time, I won't have time to drink with you, and I happen to complete dozens of entrusted tasks in the Eastern District today. ”

"So, it's still the providence of heaven that we can gather here to drink tonight" Xue Ren smiled in surprise and raised the wine glass in his hand, "Cheers to this providence." ”

"Cheers"

The two raised their heads and drank the wine in the glass, and Xue Ren helped Boro fill it again. "You said you completed dozens of commissioned tasks in two days"

"It's just the little things. Boro didn't even think about hiding it, after all, catching rats and collecting debts could be done even if he didn't need to be an ordinary person.

"It's a trivial ......," Xue Ren muttered meaningfully, he knew Boro's hidden identity, the deacon of the city. How could he not know about the outland city that was invaded by blood demons and winter ghosts.

And more importantly, the exorcists in the locked city, he thought they were all killed by the blood demons in the northern battlefield, if it weren't for the fact that Boro was drunk a few days ago, he wouldn't have known that Boro was the only survivor of that war.

"Forget it, what are you going to do in this good time to talk about these bad topics. I'm really ...... too" Xue Ren punished himself with a cup "I don't know if Boro will have time tomorrow"

"Tomorrow," Boro thought for a moment, "I've just finished my mission in the East Side, and I'm going to go to the outer city to complete the remaining tasks. ”

"Is there a mission in the wilderness of the outer city?" Xue Ren was a little curious, how could those peasants still have people who wanted to take their lives

"Yes, and the pay is even better than those in the East End. Just by dispelling the Yellow Worm Spirit, you will be rewarded with 4,000 coins. Boro replied, he didn't expect what Xue Ren thought the tasks would be at this time.

Xue Ren felt a little embarrassed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, "This kind of trivial matter is not in a hurry for the time being." Why don't you come with me tomorrow to see a dance show? ”

"Dance Performance"

"It's like the last time the flower girl performed in front of you. ”

Boro naturally remembers the dance of the flower girl, a moon-stepping song as if he wants to take his soul away directly, and the bright moon in the sky is the final place where all souls belong.

"But the peasant uncle ...... over there."

"Don't worry, yellow bug spirits don't appear every day. Xue Ren blocked Boluo's hesitation, "That's it, I'll come to the Peony Pavilion to pick you up early tomorrow morning, don't miss the appointment." ”

"Oh well. Boro nodded in agreement, and to be honest, he really wanted to see the white moon again. The last time I couldn't really see what was on it, this time I had to go to the moon and find what was hidden on it.

"If you have had any fun experiences in the past two days, you may as well tell me, I can tell you that I have been running for the past two days, but I have not had any fun at all. Xue Ren seemed to be a little disgusted by what he had done before, "It's a pity, as the future heir of the family, I have to do this again, and I have to watch them die with my own eyes......"

"Dead" Boro heard only this one keyword.

"Ah, it's just a little thing. Xue Ren laughed, and it seemed that he didn't mean to continue talking about the topic with Boro.

Boro didn't ask any more questions: "My tasks for the past two days are also very boring, just like I told you that they are all small things, and anyone can do it." Such as collecting debts and catching rats. ”

"Debt collection and catching mice" Xue Ren was a little dazed, isn't it murder?

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I didn't expect the Exorcist Guild to have such a small thing. ”

"But the rewards for these missions are quite good, and they are much better than those dangerous missions in the Outlands. Boro hesitated to discuss with Xue Ren about the outcasts outside the city, as he seemed to have mentioned death just now. I vaguely felt that it was probably related to those poor people.

The two drank until late at night, and they didn't break up until the short and thin man brought someone to the Peony Pavilion to greet Xue Ren.

"Don't forget, tomorrow...... I'll bring someone to pick you up. Xue Ren was a little drunk, and he had to be supported by others when he walked, and even so, he still didn't forget to remind Boro.
