Chapter 37: Heading to the Displaced Quarters
The little girl is gone.
Looking at her back, Lu Ming received the first main quest.
[Main quest (1): Go to the homeless area (You should go to see the life of the people at the bottom, go down and take a walk, it's best not to wear this gorgeous clothes.] οΌγ
I want to go to the homeless area, but I don't know the way...
Lu Ming looked around, but there was no longer a little girl, so he had to ask passers-by.
"Displaced areas? You can't go to that place, it's dirty and messy, and people die every day. The man looked Lu Ming up and down: "You look quite decent, why would you want to go to that kind of place?" If you're looking for a woman, I have a few places to recommend. β
"Boring." Lu Ming said.
I don't know if I'm saying that I'm idle, or if I'm talking too much.
Points can be exchanged for the currency of the current world, and the ratio is very cost-effective, one point can be exchanged for a lot.
Lu Ming didn't know the currency situation here, so he gave the other party all the money he exchanged.
"It's... All right. The man wanted to persuade Lu Ming again, but no one would have trouble with money.
After learning the specific location, Lu Ming quickly set off to go.
It's only been half an hour since he left the door, and now he has enough time to go to the homeless area, Lu Ming turned around and walked into an alley.
Suddenly, a deep voice sounded: "Dude, you're also a player, right?" β
Lu Ming turned his head, and one hand was on his shoulder, a bald head with a stubble face, and he held a knife in his hand, with uncleaned fish scales on it.
"Borrow some points?" The bald head said, "I really don't have any points." β
Lu Ming felt a little interesting and asked, "How much do you want to borrow?" β
The bald head thought for a moment and sneered: "It's almost enough for you to keep 20 points for yourself." β
It looks like it's been robbed.
Lu Ming didn't talk nonsense with him, grabbed the bald hand, and punched him in the face.
The bald head was stunned by this punch, covering his nose, scolding in his mouth, he didn't expect that the other party was not afraid of knives.
But he was clearly a repeat offender, and immediately after being struck, he swung his knife and slashed at him.
"There are only 2 points for killing players... I didn't want to kill you! β
But the next second, he was stunned.
I saw that the young man in front of him directly blocked the machete with his bare hands, and the blade had completely cut into his arm, dripping with blood, but he had a calm face, as if he didn't feel pain at all.
"You... You..."
The bald head let go of his hand and gradually stepped back.
After suffering this kind of injury, he can still keep his face from changing his color, what kind of person is this?
Lu Ming pulled out the knife, and the crimson liquid burst out instantly, and the next moment, the wound recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Mom!"
The bald head was so frightened that he turned and ran, but before he could take a few steps, his body froze, and a difficult hoarse sound came out of his throat.
The machete was stuck in his neck.
What skills does this person have? Can you actually treat wounds instantly?
Does the player have this skill?!
The bald head fell to the ground with a pop, and his pupils gradually dilated.

No matter what damage the shadow receives, it can be healed in a short time.
The only weakness of the 'Shadow' is the Shadow, and no one would think of attacking the Shadow on the ground in order to damage it.
Moreover, the shadow does not have a live perspective, and no one will see this scene.
Lu Ming shook off the blood in his hands, but there were still some stains on his sleeves.
After this episode, he continued to the homeless area.
On the way, Lu Ming saw many people huddled in dark corners, they were enduring hunger and wanted to relieve their pain by sleeping.
When many homeless people noticed Lu Ming, they all cast puzzled glances, but more of them were afraid.

[Hint: Players are invited to move around this area and look for clues!] γ
Lu Ming looked around and saw that this place was indeed very dilapidated, and there were also street vendors here.
"Old thing! This fish is the price, do you love it or not! β
Not far away, a vendor pushed the old man in front of him away, and the old man's center of gravity was unstable and he fell to the ground, but he still crawled over.
"I haven't eaten in three days... Okay, okay..."
The vendor waved his hand impatiently: "Go, go, don't disturb my business." β
The vendors here and the vendors in the city are not the same attitude.
The rest of the people around me seemed to be surprised, and it was not uncommon in places where people starved to death every day.
Lu Ming was thinking about it, when a thin figure suddenly rushed out, and before Lu Ming could take a closer look, he saw that the vendor had already covered his nose and squatted down, wailing in his mouth.
"You bullying bastards!"
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, it was actually the girl he met on the street just now.
"You... You lowly outcast, how dare you beat me?! The vendor opened his eyes and stood up with a grim face.
Several vendors around also surrounded them.
In the crowd, the girl was grabbed by the collar and her fist fell her face.
"Ahem... You scum, damn it! The girl continued to beat the vendor with both hands, but her resistance was only met with more severe beatings.
"I'll let you die now!"
The vendor raised his fist again, but this time it stopped in mid-air, unable to fight any longer, and turned his head to see a young man standing behind him, his hand being clutched by the young man.
The vendor was about to scold, but when he saw the gorgeous clothes on the young man's body, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Let go." Lu Ming spoke slowly.
The vendor seemed to have a breath in his throat, holding back all the words.
This is the official of the city, and he can't afford to mess with it.
The vendor let go of his hand, and the girl fell to the ground with a thud, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"My lord, is there anything wrong with you?" The vendor smiled flatteringly, and the few vendors who had just gathered around followed suit.
Lu Ming only felt disgusted.
"How much can it be solved?" Lu Ming asked.
The vendor was stunned, and even a discerning person could see who he was protecting, and hurriedly said: "It's all a misunderstanding, don't want money..."
Lu Ming didn't even want to talk nonsense with them, he gave all the rest of the money to the vendor, and then looked at the old man on the ground.
"Take the fish away."
The old man was stunned for a long time before he reacted, took the fish, bowed his head and thanked him repeatedly, and then got up and quickly left the crowd.
"You can go too." Lu Ming glanced at the vendor and said.
The vendor was very knowledgeable, and he left quickly after getting the money, after all, he didn't want to provoke the official.
The other vendors around were scattered.
After being quiet for a while, Lu Ming walked up to the girl: "Are you still alive?" β
The girl did not speak, still with her head bowed, and sat on her knees on the ground.
"You're all the same, you're all the same, damn it," the little girl stood up, wiped her hands on her face, and walked away without looking back.
Lu Ming was a little helpless, and looked at the fish behind him in a blink of an eye, so he had to wrap them all up and keep up.
He needs a guide so that he can easily find clues in the homeless area.
