Floor-to-ceiling mirrors, candlesticks, dim candlelight.

The little maid who led the way for Chen Yin was saying something:

“…… It's a strange person, he doesn't seem to have much of a fight, but a word, a look can scare Taaff into fidgeting. The little maid grinned.

"And that person is so funny, he understands a lot of things he understands casually, and there are many things I haven't heard before......"

"So insightful? It can't be made up, right...... Or is he a bard? Barana relaxed in the chaise longue, gently rocking the back of the chair, fingers fiddling with her tulle shawl, seemingly dismissive of the description of the little maid.

"It's not like ...... No, I don't know. The little maid suddenly remembered something, "By the way, he will also sing that song, and he will sing it differently than Sister Nana......"

"Oh? What's the difference? ”

"Yes......"

As she spoke, the little maid recalled Chen Yin's tune and repeated it.

"Huh?" Barana sat up.

"What's wrong? Sister Nana? Am I not singing correctly? ”

"No...... You're right. Barana, who was originally tired, suddenly came to her senses and licked her lips unconsciously.

"This way of singing...... Doesn't anyone know about it except over there? Oh roar roar roar ...... The black, white, and troublemakers are all here...... Maybe something interesting is about to happen! There's a good show to watch now. ”

"Hehehe......" The little maid also smirked on the side, although she didn't know what Barana was thinking, but that didn't prevent her from being happy with Barana.

……

Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths.

Some fluctuations under the surface of the water are difficult to perceive in advance on the official surface, but for people like Taaffe, who are themselves mixed in the deep water, they can be prescient. After all, people who are immersed in the water all over their bodies can feel the turbulent undercurrents under the surface of the water more than those officials who stand on the shore.

"Talk about it, you won't lose a piece of meat, what are you afraid of, people are so bold but so small." Chen Yin leaned on the bed, his arms naturally drooping, and his hands crossed on his knees.

This gesture minimizes his aggression, and the gesture of listening seems to impress the timid strong man of Taaffe.

“…… There's no way, the most important thing to come out of the mix is to know your catties, otherwise someone would have killed you a long time ago......" Taaffe touched his head with a humble expression.

"Hurry up." Chen Yin urged expressionlessly.

"Yes, yes...... That's right, almost half a year ago, some people who did dirty work for the Shadow Church came to us to inquire about the whereabouts of a woman, and then somehow they stopped, but a while ago the gang came again, this time not only to inquire about the woman, but also to investigate the dwarves......"

"Your Excellency, that's all I know...... What do you think ......? A flattering smile was piled up on Taaffe's face.

"What does the woman they're looking for look like?"

"I don't know, I didn't see the portrait, but I heard that he was a tall, long-haired black man, probably 18 or 9 years old...... Oh yes, he seems to be a pretty good vow-bearer. Taff thought about it and poured out everything he knew.

"It's better if what you're saying is true." Chen Yin waved his hand, "Let's go." ”

"Thank you, Your Excellency! Thank you! Taff happily made a big salute, turned around and wanted to leave, his hand touched the armrest, and he heard Chen Yin's voice behind him:

"Come here tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock and wait, if you don't come, you will be responsible for the consequences."

"I'm ......" The expression on Taffe's face fell again when he heard this, and he looked at Chen Yin with a sad face and wanted to say something.

"What? Want to stay here? Chen Yin raised his eyebrows.

"I didn't ...... No, I'll be here tomorrow morning at eight o'clock. Taff shrunk his neck, opened the door and slipped out.

Listening to the voices in the corridor getting farther and farther away, Chen Yin lay down on the bed and asked as if talking to himself, "Hmm...... Shadow Church ...... What do you think? ”

"I haven't heard of it."

“…… Is there any difference between asking you and asking about stones? ”

"Your uncle, I am more handsome than a stone."

"Hehe, I just want to know something." Chen Yin suddenly had a little spirit, and made the fat crow on the windowsill: "Why were you thrown by your former owner on this planet where birds don't?" ”

"Hmph." When it comes to similar issues, the noisy crow will keep silent and will not reveal a word.

"Actually, it's because you're too noisy, right? If you are annoyed by people, why don't you leave you here with a reason like, 'I see that you are gifted and intelligent, and your bones are strange, and the task of protecting the world will be entrusted to you', right? Chen Yin smiled evilly.

"......" the crow was still silent.

"Alas, it's boring, no reaction at all." Chen Yin found a loose pants to change into, and went out naked, carrying a handkerchief and soap.

He had already inquired before, and the so-called 24-hour hot water here was actually a bathhouse that was only open to the interior of the hotel. Although there is no independent small bathroom, Chen Yin, who has not taken a good bath for a long time, still feels more satisfied.

After breaking away from modern times, although there are no traffic jams, smog, and junk food, there are also no mobile phones, wifi, air conditioning, running water and countless other modern conveniences.

And not only have these details of life become very inconvenient, but even the most important hygiene conditions are not enough for modern people - even if this place is already so luxurious, all kinds of buzzing mosquitoes are inevitable.

Fortunately, there is no technology here, but at least there are cards, but they are a little more expensive.

The road to the bathhouse had been confirmed before, and there was an oil lamp burning every few steps in the hallway, so there was no worry about getting lost.

Clinton, the crow, is still hanging from the window to eat, and I don't know if he will turn the food out of his mouth if he hangs upside down......

However, there are many mysteries about this inexplicable crow, such as the strange thing he asked Chen Yin to help it find this time: a wooden stick buried in the depths of the desert. If it hadn't said that it knew the whereabouts of the Divine Power Crystal and was willing to tell Chen Yin, he would have quit a long time ago.

Joke? Traveling thousands of miles to the most dangerous place where insects sleep just to find a stick? But Clinton did pay half of the pay, which was the composition of the Divine Power Crystal: "A crystal containing the fragments of the soul of a god." ”

As for how to find it and where to find it, whenever Chen Yin asked about it, Clinton was silent. Even when Chen Yin asked it what the "god" was, it only told Chen Yin in a flickering voice, "You'll know when the time comes." ”

I don't know how many years have passed since Crow Clinton fell into a long sleep, and such a long period of vicissitudes has also made Clinton completely unaware of the geographical distribution of this world, and in the end it only provides a very vague clue like "a desert full of bugs".

In fact, Chen Yin heard the name "Worm Sleeping Land" in the taverns full of sailors, and then followed the clues of "Worm Sleeping Land" all the way to the largest port in the Federation: Golden Port.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to this place, he heard the news of the "Shadow Church" again, which made Chen Yin sigh a little.

Following the road in his memory, Chen Yin walked around this palace-like stone building for a long time, and finally smelled the smell of water vapor.

"It should ...... Is this it? Chen Yin looked up and saw a water basin logo carved above the stone door frame.

When night fell, the surrounding scenery was a little different from the daytime, so that Chen Yin was a little confused whether it was here or not.

Knocked lightly on the door, and after listening to no reaction inside, Chen Yin gently pushed open the wooden door......

A steam came to his face, and sure enough, it was the smell of the bathhouse, Chen Yin didn't think much about it, and walked in with his feet raised.

The wooden floor creaked when stepped on, making people suspect that it was about to break off in the next moment. On either side of the wall, there is a row of wooden shelves that resemble bookshelves, and there are some fabrics piled on them, which look like bath towels and other things, and it seems that this is the place to put clothes.

Finally, in the space of the shelves without fabrics, there are also pairs of wooden planks wearing hemp rope, which should be similar in size to clogs or slippers.

“…… It's pretty complete. Chen Yin stripped off his clothes, put a handkerchief on his shoulder, and stepped on the wooden slippers "Taratara" and walked into the steaming place inside.

The bath inside is neither large nor small, about half the size of a standard pool. The pool was empty, which made Chen Yin feel like he was taking a private bath.

"I'm really not used to ......," muttered a few words, Chen Yin casually threw off his wooden slippers and stretched out his feet into the pool.

The water temperature is just right.

Higher than body temperature but not hot, feeling the hot water slowly soaking his body, Chen Yin couldn't help but hum comfortably: "...... Cool ......"

"Who?"

A voice suddenly came from the shore, which startled Chen Yin, who was lying on his stomach softly! You must know that he has not felt anyone since just now, and now someone suddenly comes to such a voice, saying that he is not afraid that it is a lie.

“…… Who are you? Chen Yin secretly began to charge the card ring.

When he threatened Taffe before, Chen Yin once kept the card ring in a state where the 5 soul crystals were fully bright. But after such a long time, because Chen Yin has not replenished it, the soul energy on his card ring has escaped, and now if he wants to recharge, he can only start from zero.

"Oh roar roar roar ~ it turned out to be you, little one." A coquettish laugh came from the vapor, and Barana, dressed in a golden bath towel, floated lightly to the edge of the pool and stood still.

From Chen Yin's point of view, although she couldn't see anything clearly, the playful purple nail polish on her toes was very conspicuous in the white vapor.

“…… I didn't expect it to be you. Chen Yin was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little unnatural, "Do you also come to this kind of service in person?" ”

"What kind of service?" Barana crouched sideways, then sat directly on the shore, dipped her calves in the hot water, then raised her head, ran her hair back with her hands along her cheeks, and gently pulled her hair up at the bow of her slender neck.

The expression is natural and not pretentious, as if Chen Yin is just one of her best friends, and he doesn't care at all about his gaze on his chest.

“…… Chat? Chen Yin raised his eyebrows.

"Huh...... Now I'm sure you didn't mean to. Barana gave Chen Yin a wink, then turned her head and said, "Let's disperse." ”

"Yes, Sister Nana."

Behind the white vapor, the voices of countless girls sounded in unison, and Chen Yin even heard the sound of the bowstring relaxing......

“…… Archer? Chen Yin was taken aback.

"No, it's a crossbowman." Barana coiled her hair and slid it slightly, and her whole body entered the water.

“…… Is there some misunderstanding? Chen Yin's face was a little ugly.

“…… It's pretty complete. Chen Yin stripped off his clothes, put a handkerchief on his shoulder, and stepped on the wooden slippers "Taratara" and walked into the steaming place inside.

The bath inside is neither large nor small, about half the size of a standard pool. The pool was empty, which made Chen Yin feel like he was taking a private bath.
