Although it was only a few days of acquaintance, Bai Chen still helped the old man named 'Li' to bury him, as well as his little pet Xiaoxi.

Then Bai Chen rebuilt the castle and occupied it, and Li collected many books in his castle.

Bai Chen stayed here, mainly to read books, Li only taught Bai Chen a few words, so Bai Chen's reading speed was too slow in the early days, because most of the words were not recognized.

This made Bai Chen very distressed, because Li didn't have a book to teach people to read and write, and if there was no systematic learning process, even Bai Chen would not be able to make something out of nothing.

Woo woo -

The fat man arched the door outside the door, the fat man was the wild boar, Bai Chen frowned, and opened the door: "What are you doing?"

The fat man ran to his trough, and then looked at Bai Chen bitterly.

There was nothing to eat, Bai Chen pinched his brows.

"Foodie. Bai Chen scolded, but after all, the fat man is only flesh and blood, and it is impossible to eat nothing like himself.

"Forget it, you take this to satisfy your hunger first. Bai Chen threw the fat man a Bigu Dan.

With the body shape of a fat man, one Bigu Dan is enough for it not to eat for half a month.

The fat man sniffed Bigu Dan, swallowed it in one gulp, and then returned to his little nest satisfied.

Looking at the fat man's stinky pig nest, Bai Chen frowned, and dragged the fat man out of the pig nest in the air, followed by a water balloon smashed on the fat man's head, washing it all over his body, from head to toe, as for its pig nest, Bai Chen directly dismantled the pig nest, and then reshaped a pig nest, a clean and tidy pig nest.

"Since you are my pet, give me a little hygiene, and if you treat yourself as a wild boar again, I will roast you as food. Bai Chen said coldly: "It is convenient for you to dig a hole next to the forest." When you're done, bury it with soil and don't let me see anything unclean. ”

The fat man was so frightened that he went back to his new home and hid in the pig's nest shivering.

"It seems that you have to find a housekeeper, but you can't do it without a housekeeper. ”

Except for the housekeeper, the most important thing is that no one taught Bai Chen to read and write. It's also inconvenient to read a book.

Bai Chen patted the pig's nest, the fat man stuck out his head from it, and Bai Chen directly dragged the fat man out: "Go out." ”

Bai Chen rode the fat man out of the house, Bai Chen had explored, three hundred kilometers away, there was a small town nearby, and Bai Chen planned to go there to hire a housekeeper.

The surroundings are relatively desolate, similar to deserts, with occasional green plants. Struggling to survive in this desolate place.

Until the evening, Bai Chen finally came to the outside of the town, and there was a stone tablet standing at the gate of the town, which was estimated to be the name of the town, but Bai Chen didn't know it.

Bai Chen was dressed like a little beggar, and even his mount, the fat man, looked much brighter than Bai Chen.

There weren't many people in the town, Bai Chen found out. These passers-by all have one thing in common, they are all accompanied by a strange beast. Big or small, some fierce, some docile, so Bai Chen rode the fat man, but it didn't seem too abrupt.

Just then, a team appeared directly ahead. Everyone in that team was riding a majestic strange horse, and Bai Chen saw that those strange horses actually relied on the fangs of carnivorous beasts, led by a woman, a very beautiful kind.

Bai Chen has always had a special interest in mature women. So I couldn't help but look at it twice.

The woman couldn't help but glance at Bai Chen, and she didn't know where to find a coin and bounce it into Bai Chen's hand.

"You're rewarded. The woman obviously regarded Bai Chen as a beggar, and looked at Bai Chen with a condescending gaze.

"Mistress, there is no inn in the town, so we can only go to the wilderness for one night tonight. ”

"Then go to the wilderness for a night, I've come all this far, anyway, it's not the first time I've slept in the wilderness. ”

This group of people hurriedly passed by Bai Chen's side, and apart from the coin, there was no intersection between the two sides.

Bai Chen looked at the coin in his hand: "What a strange substance, what kind of material is this?" ”

But what is this coin, and what can it do?

From a distance, Cangmi looked back at the boy's back, and the guard beside him asked, "Mastermother, why did you give that child a reward?"

"I don't know, my prophet quail told me to give the boy a bounty. Cangmi said indifferently.

The guards stopped talking, the phantom beast of their own master mother was a very special bird phantom beast, which did not have any combat effectiveness in itself, but occasionally it could provide a guiding suggestion to the master, and this guiding suggestion must be right.

However, for both parties, it seems that this little matter is not taken to heart.

Bai Chen walked from the front of the town to the end of the town, and suddenly found that the lights were bright in front of him, and there were many people gathered there.

Bai Chen asked the fat man to take him over to see, it turned out to be a slave market.

"Hey boy, are you here to sell yourself?" A big man stood on the side of the road and looked at Bai Chen, behind him there were several slaves chained, male and female, dressed in tattered clothes even more tattered than Bai Chen.

Bai Chen jumped off the fat man's back and leaned in front of the big man: "How do these people sell?"

The big man looked Bai Chen up and down: "You, you want to buy slaves?"

Bai Chen took out the coin: "What kind of slave can this buy for this?"

"Yo, I can't see it, you kid is really rich. Dahan took the coin and looked at Bai Chen playfully: "The golden coin of the Great Austrian Country, boy, you stole it?"

"You don't care where I got my money. ”

"Snort-" The big man laughed, and few of the people here were clean, so of course he didn't care where the customer's money came from: "How many do you have?"

"That's it. ”

"Of these, pick any one. The big man pointed to the five slaves behind him.

It seems that this coin is more than enough to buy any of them, otherwise the big man will not let him pick any one.

Bai Chen glanced at the slaves, an old man, three prime-aged people, and a young girl.

"Who is literate?" Bai Chen asked.

The old man and the girl both looked at Bai Chen, and then lowered their heads, but the three strong men and slaves did not react, and the five slaves were all lifeless, as if they had despaired of their future.

"Whoever can teach me to read, then I can be free. Bai Chen said again.

The girl raised her head and looked at Bai Chen with a hopeful look in her eyes: "Are you serious?"

"That's right, when you can let me finish a book, you'll be free. ”

"Buy me, I will. The girl said wistfully.

"Then she. Bai Chen pointed at the girl and said.

"Boy, I'm sure it's her. ”

After getting Bai Chen's affirmation, the big man stepped forward, and a small snake wound down from his arm, biting the girl's wrist, and then the girl screamed, there was a strange pattern on the hand, and the little snake spit out a pebble, and there was also a line on the back of the girl's hand.

Dahan threw the pebble to Bai Chen: "She's yours." ”

Bai Chen left with the girl, and the girl followed Bai Chen's side unhurriedly.

"What's your name?"

"Hime-no. The girl looked at Bai Chen: "Master, you were deceived by the slave trader just now, and your golden coin can buy all five slaves." ”

"It doesn't matter, I only need one. ”

Ji looked at Bai Chen without doubt, this child's dress did not look like a rich man at all, but his tone and style were very similar to that of a child of a rich family.

And this riding pet of his is too unpopular, who will catch a wild boar as a riding pet, it is difficult to tame and difficult to ride.

Even if it is a poor family, if you want to ride a pet, most of them will buy a slow howl, although it is slow, but at least it is docile and easy to raise.

"Master, what is your phantom beast?"

"Phantom beasts, what phantom beasts?"

"You don't know the phantom beast?" Ji Wu looked at Bai Chen suspiciously, even if it was the poorest family, it was impossible not to know the phantom beast, and even if he was poor, he would get a phantom beast as a helper, the child in front of him looked at least six or seven years old, and he didn't know the phantom beast.

Bai Chen glanced at Ji Wu: "Tell me about the phantom beast." ”

"Master, look at them. Ji Wu pointed to the passers-by around him, everyone did have a phantom beast: "Those are their phantom beasts, and the slave trader just now, his snake is called a prison slave, which can brand ordinary people as slaves, and the types and abilities of phantom beasts are strange, and ordinary people will go to get a phantom beast." ”

"It's okay if you don't, right?"

"It's really okay, but there are still benefits to having a phantom beast, after signing the phantom beast contract, some of the abilities of the phantom beast will be passed on to the owner, the average ordinary person will find an Ishida turtle as a phantom beast, no need to raise as long as they are released in the river to fend for themselves, the effect is that the Ishida turtle will increase the owner's lifespan, or it is a more mountain beast, increase the strength of the master, and the most on the battlefield is the storm beast and the iron flail beast. ”

"And what if the phantom beast dies?"

"If the phantom beast dies, it will cause some damage to the master, and according to the strength of the phantom beast, if the master dies, the phantom beast will definitely die. ”

"How many phantom beasts can one person make a contract with?"

"Not necessarily, everyone's situation is different, the number is fixed, but the higher it is, the less it is, I read a book, the book said that three thousand years ago there was a hero with nine phantom beasts, and that should be the person with the most phantom beasts. ”

"What do heroes do?"

"Because a powerful phantom beast needs to be controlled by mental power, so as long as the phantom beast is on the grade, it needs strong mental power control, the phantom beast is divided into five grades: God, heaven, earth, Xuan, and Huang, even if it is a person who has a yellow-grade phantom beast, he can be called a hero, and the spiritual power of people is limited, in addition to its own food, the phantom beast also needs to absorb the master's spiritual power to evolve, so even if more phantom beasts can be controlled, not everyone can withstand the consumption of phantom beasts, in a word, do what they can. ”

"What grade is it?" Bai Chen asked, pointing at the fat man.

"Wild boars have no grade, no special abilities, no strong physique, no growth, and timidity, no other use than riding, and a bad character. ”

Ji Wu didn't understand how this child tamed this wild boar into obedience. (To be continued.) )
