It was so quiet this evening that it smelled strange.

Locke's steps gradually became slow and cautious, and he seemed to have a premonition of something.

At this time, he should have gone straight home, but curiosity drove him towards the bazaar.

The lights were turned off in every house, which gave Locke good cover that he wouldn't let the lights reveal his location.

Slowly, Locke walked to the market.

All the shops in this long market have closed, except for one place...

Fude Grilled Fish Restaurant.

The bearded man's shop was still open, but it didn't seem like he had voluntarily opened it at night, because there were six people gathered in front of his shop.

The men were shirtless, wearing only a pair of trousers made of animal skins, and the muscles on their bodies were almost swollen and frighteningly swollen. Some of them were bald, some of them had disheveled hair, and they carried all kinds of weapons: hammers, sticks, sickles, axes, as if they had been picked up from the fields during the busy farming period.

And the crescent mark on their chest tells others that they are one of the "Four Great Powers", people of the mountain tribes.

The mountain tribes live in the "western part of the world" on the Pato Plateau. The tribe is strong and strong, and it admires strength. However, the resources of the Pato Plateau are limited, and if they want to feed so many strong men, they naturally have to replenish resources through plunder, and in their eyes, "plunder" is a symbol of strength.

The only compromise they had made was to participate in the Four-Nation Conference and pledge not to invade the Borderlands again, but the presence of such a group of people at the fairs in Kailin was a sign that they had left the agreement behind.

The people of the town were extremely disgusted with them, secretly called them "barbarians", and wanted to exterminate them, but the difference in strength between the two was too great for the residents to compete with them, and the only thing they could do was to quickly go home when they heard any disturbances, and hide in the hidden cellars, no matter what movement was on the ground, they would never come out until dawn.

This time, Uncle Fudd's movements were not so fast.

Locke watched from afar what they were doing in front of Uncle Forde's barbecue stand.

"Generals, I have a lot of grilled fish here, everyone can take it. Uncle Fude was smiling, but his trembling voice spoke of the fear in his heart.

It turned out that they were taking advantage of the fact that it was almost dark to grab food. Uncle Fude runs such a large barbecue stall alone, and he can't clean it up for a while, so he is regarded as a target.

One of the bald brutes took a stick and stepped forward and sniffed it.

"Grilled fish—" The mountain man didn't seem to be able to speak, and he squeezed out a few words, and his voice was as rough as his body.

"That's right, grilled fish, our grilled fish is the most delicious thing in the world!" Uncle Fud, seeing them all staring at the grill, plucked up the courage to emphasize again. In this case, it would be best for them to take only the food.

The bald head put his weapon aside and stretched out his left hand to take the fish on the grill, but he quickly withdrew his hand when he was hot.

"!" he roared like a lion, walked over to Forde, clenched his right fist and slammed him in the face.

Sure enough, it was a "barbarian", who was burned for his ignorance, but he wanted to blame innocent people.

After eating this big punch, Uncle Fude fell to the ground in an instant, covering his face and dragging his body slowly, as if he wanted to crawl away.

"Kill him, Golden!" shouted the bandits behind him at the bald head.

It seems that this bald bandit is called Golden, and he should be the leader of these six people.

Locke watched the group of bandits from a distance, and Uncle Fude lying on the ground, if he didn't do something, the bearded man's life might be gone.

Golden picked up the weapon that had been set aside, the rod wrapped around the rattan, and walked towards Uncle Forde, who had fallen to the ground. It seems that he is going to listen to the words of his other companions and kill Forde.

Locke was bent on saving Uncle Forde, he quickly set up the "Tony" he was carrying on his back and mounted the arrow, this distance is about thirty or forty meters, it should be possible...

With a "bang", the arrow was fired.

"Who! Who's shooting the arrow!"

Locke quickly ducked into the darkness, and he knew that he had missed.

Suddenly, a short arrow flew out of the darkness, hit the big stick in the bald head's hand, and fell to the ground weakly, alerting the six bandits. This is a sign that someone wants to sneak up on them from the darkness.

Six strong men lined up in an arc, carefully searching every corner with their eyes.

The strong men of the mountain tribe will never allow anyone to sneak up on him, and if he is caught, he will definitely be killed.

"Isn't it your help!" the bald head grabbed Fud, who had fallen to the ground, and yelled at him.

The left side of Fud's face was swollen, the corners of his mouth were still bleeding, and his jaw was probably dislocated, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

In fact, seeing this short arrow, Forde knew in his heart who it was, that guy had already come to his stall twice today.

"Get him caught, Golden!" shouted an unkempt brute at the bald head, "bring him over tomorrow and put him to death in public!"

Locke hid in the shadows, and when he heard this, he had a sense of foreboding,

"Can't let them take Uncle Fude away!"

The courage that came from nowhere allowed Locke to run out of the darkness and continue to shoot at the barbarians with an arrow.

"There, ah!"

Another bandit spotted Locke and saw a short arrow flying towards him, unable to dodge and slashed his arm.

The tribesmen simply could not stand this kind of bullying and let out a loud roar:

"Catch him, kill him!"

They threw down Forde and charged at Locke.

Locke didn't have time to catch the third arrow, and he couldn't defeat six with his strength, so he had to run.

Fortunately, this little ghost shuttles through the streets and alleys of Kailin Town all year round, where there is a road, where to hide, and even where there is a dog hole, he knows it clearly.

It's really not easy to catch this little guy in such a big town, and it's at night.

Locke fled back and forth between the house and the courtyard wall, like a nimble loach, but the six mountain people behind him didn't care so much, they went on a rampage, smashing the fragile walls, wooden doors, kicking down the erected bamboo poles... They chased all the way, destroying the town all the way.

"If this continues, the houses in the town will be destroyed by them!"

Locke looked back as he ran, feeling that this was not the way to go, and that if he continued to hide within the limited confines of the town, he would be caught by them sooner or later.

Just, lure them out of town!

Locke changed direction and ran straight out of town.

The sun has completely set, and darkness is gradually eating away at the world.

"Hey, stupids!

Locke stood at the east gate of the bazaar and shot the third arrow with "Tony",

With a "bang", the arrow was fired.

Although he didn't shoot, he showed the bandits a way.

Out of the east gate of this market, you will go out of the entire Kailin town.

Dad reminded that the suburbs at night are the most dangerous, and you must not leave the town at night.

But now, the situation at hand is even more dangerous.

"Here!"

The bandits behind him were chasing after him, and Locke didn't have time to think so much, so he could only run out!

But outside the town, where could he go?

Love Volcano!

Daddy and his hunting area, which is wooded and overgrown, is a great place to hide.

Locke had been hunting there with his father for more than half a year, so he was quite familiar with the dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

It's decided!

Locke ran desperately eastward, and the six bandits behind him chased after him. He knew that if he was caught, his life would be over.

A short distance east of the town is a dense forest that leads to the Love Volcano.

At night, it was a no-man's land, and no one would, or rather, dare to linger in it.

The forest was eerie, and it looked like a monster's mouth, waiting for its prey to come to the door.

Locke was its "prey" tonight, along with the six strong men chasing after him.

Seeing that he was about to catch up with the little ghost in front of him, the bald head threw out the wooden stick in his hand vigorously, trying to hit him, but the crosshairs were not enough, and he smashed on the trunk of the tree next to him.

Soon, they all disappeared into the darkness, and even a few beams of moonlight spilled in, it was difficult to illuminate the road ahead.

"Get out of here!" the bald head couldn't find his way and stopped and yelled at the darkness in front of him.

The other five bandits also stopped, with a strange "bluff" sound from their mouths, which was their warning to the enemy.

suddenly

In the darkness, a bright blue light appeared, floating throughout the dense forest.

"What's that, Golden?" the mountain man was at a loss when he saw something like this for the first time.

"I don't know... Fireflies?"

They keep making sounds, and the light keeps coming closer to them...

"Fire!

These glimmers of light instantly turned into piles of blue ghost fires, igniting the surrounding trees and grass.

Locke hid not far away, and the tree in front of him was on fire.

"There it is!"

By the light of the fire, Locke is discovered by the bandits, and he must run deeper into the forest.

"Chase!"

The bandits behind them chased after them, and the firelight helped them clear their targets.

The deeper you run, the bigger the fire around you, and gradually some bandits are entangled in the ghost fire.

"Ahh

Ghost fire fell on the bandits, burning their hair, pants, and even their skin.

Locke ran through the fire, and the ghostly fire fell on him, extinguishing it instantly. After hearing the wails behind him, he stopped and looked back at the person behind him who had started the fire.

One by one, the bandits struggled, and in this situation, they were going to die in the fire.

"Golden, help me!"

"Golden, why can't they be extinguished!"

The bald head named Golden was always on the lookout for the people around him, preventing them from going crazy and pounced.

He looked ahead, and the curly-haired little ghost was standing in the midst of the fire, looking at him indifferently.

"I'm going to kill you!" Gordon let out a roar of rage, trying to catch up, but the fire was so great that the entire forest was surrounded by blue ghostly fire.

Locke continued to run forward, he didn't know why these strange flames didn't burn when they fell on him, he didn't even feel any burning sensation.

Now, it's time to get rid of them.

There seemed to be calm again, no ghostly fire, no light. So, he jumped into the air, ready to jump out of the fire.

The moment he jumped out of the flames, the world immediately changed.

He turned out...

Jumped into the water!
