Chapter 124: Inner Confusion

Chu Kun, who couldn't find any clue in his heart, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and relaxed, and quietly half lay on the wooden chair. During this period of time on the periphery of the Everfree Forest, I have been nervous, and I dare not be careless, and even when I rest at night, I wake up every half an hour to change the resting place. Now that I was completely relaxed, I felt sleepiness in my brain for a while, and I fell asleep after a while......

Li Yan and her sister Li Ran glanced at each other, looked at Chu Kun's tired face, and suddenly sighed lightly. After taking a cloak made of white mutant fox fur and putting it on Chu Kun's body, the two women walked out of the room with gentle steps......

When he woke up again, it was already approaching evening, looking at the fox cloak that exuded a faint fragrance, Chu Kun smiled warmly! Stretching his waist, he only felt that he was comfortable after this sleep, the time in the periphery of the Endless Forest was too draining, there were awakened level monsters and various other dangers everywhere, that is, Chu Kun's willpower was high, and the rest of the people would have already been buried in it!

Pushing open the door, the Yanran sisters outside were bringing the prepared meal to the table, and when they saw Chu Kun coming out, Li Ran smiled, and in an instant, it was like a cherry blossom blooming, and it was impossible to do anything: "Brother Chu, you are awake, it just so happens that the meal has been prepared, go wash your hands and eat!" ”

Smiling slightly at Li Ran, Chu Kun nodded and then went to wash his face and sober up the residual sleepiness. The fragrance of rice porridge wafted on the tip of his nose, and he didn't know when he started drinking porridge, especially for morning and evening meals, and he always felt a little bored with those greasy mutant beast meats. Maybe it's because I eat it regularly, so I'm a little tired!

After dinner, the sky has been slightly darker, and the current season is when the days are short and the nights are long, and it is summer and autumn, and I am afraid that the sun is still slightly slanting to the west at this time. After thinking about it, Chu Kun left Mozhuyuan and went to the Wutong Auction House. He didn't get involved in many matters of the auction house at all, he was just a shopkeeper.

And he didn't care too much about the usual profits. Even some of the taxes in Wutong Village are directly collected by Wu Lianying. He didn't know how much wealth he had! Now he doesn't need a lot of money anywhere, but puts it in the auction house to better collect some rare equipment, props and other items for himself.

After chatting about some non-nutritious topics at the dance shadow office, without taking the carriage, Chu Kun slowly paced towards Mozhu Garden. It was already completely dark. The pedestrians on the road are also sparse and much less than during the day. No more than before the end times. Night-time entertainment is scarce these days.

In some of the roadside dwellings, there are some scantily dressed women scratching their heads in front of the door, and from time to time there are some men dressed in various occupations coming in and out. This is a place for many male professionals to relieve stress after returning from an adventure in the wilderness, similar to the ancient Qinglou, but in a small area of residential places, it seems a little less elegant than the Qinglou, or more like the pre-apocalyptic red light district!

Chu Kun walked on the street alone, slowly, it seemed that there was no sound around him, as if he was a person's world, full of silence and loneliness. The cold wind blowing at night made Chu Kun's thoughts more and more sober, and unconsciously, it had been not a short time since he was reborn, but only now did he find out what his goal was.

Right? Wealth? Or a woman? Or maybe it's strength! When he was first reborn, he was arrogant, but now he is a little confused, and he suddenly realizes that he does not have a strong enough reason to push himself. Is it because of the resentment of the person who was inexplicably attacked to death? But in fact, Chu Kun didn't have any exaggerated thoughts in his heart, he was killed by a sneak attack, he could only say that he was not capable enough, not to mention that he didn't even know who the sneak attack was, even if he was really full of resentment, what could he do!

As for power and wealth, it can be seen from Chu Kun's performance that he is not very enthusiastic about these things, and he can even be said to be uninterested, otherwise he would not have even had a shadow of the formation of power by now. The same is true for wealth, the original intention of obtaining the Wutong Auction House is for those rare items, and becoming the executor of Wutong Village is to have a place to live......

From HF City all the way to Wutong Village, Chu Kun seemed to be extremely greedy for money along the way, but was this really the case, otherwise how would he let the taxes of the auction house and Wutong Village go unattended in the hands of Wutong Shadow. So...... The rest ...... It's strength...... Chu Kun's right hand was slightly raised in front of his eyes, slightly clenched into a fist, but his eyes still revealed confusion......

Early the next morning, Chu Kun took the teleportation array and came to the main city again, it was already the last day of the exploration mission, and if he hadn't informed the city lord's mansion of the anomaly on the periphery of the Endless Forest today, he would have been extremely wronged and judged to have failed the mission, so Chu Kun came to the main city of Huaxia District early in the morning!

All the way through, after a while, they came to the city lord's mansion again. The milky white bead as a token had been temporarily borrowed from Dance Shadow when I went to the Sycamore Auction House yesterday evening. Although the enforcers guarding the gates of the inner and outer cities were still the two guards who had seen Chu Kun last time, they still couldn't enter the inner city without taking out the bead!

After the report, the guards in front of the City Lord's Mansion came to the study room last time again. Pushing the door in lightly, the figure in a trance was the same as last time, standing behind the bookcase with his hands behind his back, as if it had never changed!

"Mission accomplished?" The figure sounded plainly, but it reached Chu Kun's ears with a sense of majesty and calmness, thinking that this is the temperament of a person who has been in the top position for a long time, immersed in his bones with the passage of time.

"Hmm!" Chu Kun replied softly, he found that he had a faint sense of depression in front of that figure, and even spoke with a little caution. It's not about willpower or inner strength, it's like an ant standing in front of a dormant dragon, and the difference in strength makes him dare not cross it at all! Although there is no way to know how strong the figure is, it is undoubtedly like a bottomless abyss for the current Chu Kun, untouchable!

I don't know what's going on, he suddenly remembered those pre-apocalyptic online novels, in which the protagonist is still very fearless in the face of an existence countless times stronger than himself, chatting and farting with it, and from time to time shouting that my life is up to me. Then you will be appreciated by that powerful existence, and it will become a relationship between old friends and good friends. (To be continued......)
