Lu Xi took a step back, took a deep breath, and his messy mind became clear.

She wants to meet the human who left a trace, but she can't appear directly in front of the other party, at least she has to find out what kind of person that human is and whether there is a threat to her.

In case the other party was a robber who killed people without blinking an eye or something, Lu Xi didn't feel that he had any ability to resist.

Even with Xiao Yuan, it is just a pup wolf that looks about the size of a medium-sized dog, and they don't have enough strength to protect themselves against a human who may be an adult man.

Finding a suitable place to hide his luggage, Lu Xi easily returned to the place where the footprints had just been found, and followed the direction of the footprints, approaching the past extremely carefully.

She hadn't learned to track, and she hadn't done anything like that before, but she always knew a little bit about the basics, and she used them here decently.

Xiaoyuan is simpler than Lu Xi, it has a natural instinct to lurk close to its prey, and it has become proficient in dozens of bird flutters.

It didn't take long to track the target, and the target quickly caught Lu Xi's eye.

is indeed an adult man, which proves that Lu Xi's vigilance and caution are correct, he is wearing a dress that has been repaired many times, only simple short sleeves and shorts with trouser legs rolled up, Lu Xi can't see the clothing characteristics of the clothes on it, he can only see that his family is probably not rich, and it can even be said to be poor.

The man was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, in the prime of life, and his slightly thinner figure was a little taller, holding an axe that had been used for a long time with various traces, and was concentrating on chopping a tree.

The body of the tree had begun to tilt and shake, it looked like he had been cutting here for a long time, and it was about to end, no wonder Lu Xi caught up with him so easily following the footprints, it turned out that he had never moved his position.

Lu Xi doesn't know anything like psychological analysis, and can judge whether the person in front of her is credible through various details, she can only rely on her intuition to make a gamble-like choice.

"Whoa" Lu Xi was just about to get up, but accidentally touched a branch next to him, causing a loud noise.

The sound was not loud, but the man who was cutting the tree heard it, and quickly turned around and raised his axe in the direction where the sound was made.

Lu Xi had no choice but to change his initial expectations, slowly walked out from behind the tree, and opened his mouth tentatively, "Hello?" ”

She was also unsure if her language would be understood.

"Who are you?" The man opened his mouth vigilantly, and Lu Xi was not as vigilant as he was a woman.

Thankfully, the language is universal.

Lu Xi exhaled deeply, her mind spinning rapidly, judging from the details she could observe, this man should be "safe", a resident of a human settlement, not one of those dangerous bandits.

Of course, the inhabitants of the human gathering place do not necessarily represent their credibility, but Lu Xi has no more choices.

Lu Xi is full of strangeness to this world, and she urgently needs to go to a place where human beings live, to learn all the information about this other world, and to decide how she should survive in the future.

She couldn't have lived in the forest for the rest of her life.

So in just a moment, almost as soon as the idea was decided, Lu Xi's face showed a weak expression, his eyes were red, and his appearance was extremely pitiful.

"I accidentally had an accident and was left alone in the wild, I've been here for a long time, you're the first person I've ever met, can you take me back to a place where there are human beings?"

She didn't answer her name directly, nor did she let Xiao Yuan come out of the hiding place, once the man had a little bad intentions, Xiao Yuan could catch him off guard and fight for her a chance to escape.

Lu Xi was lucky enough, the man didn't have any bad intentions, after looking at Lu Xi's sewn tattered clothes, he seemed to believe Lu Xi, and said to Lu Xi very plainly and honestly, "That's right, I can take you back to my village, but you have to wait until I finish cutting down the tree, my house is broken, and I need to replace it with new wood." ”

After saying that, the man really turned around directly, cut down the tree again, and completely ignored the poor Lu Xi.

Lu Xi just prepared a few miserable lines, but he suddenly got stuck in his mouth and couldn't say it, stared at the man's back for a while, and after making sure that the other party was really cutting down the tree seriously, his brain turned and he tentatively spoke, "Okay, but when I just came over, I left something over there, can I go and get it now?" ”

The man just turned his back to Lu Xi and waved his hand honestly, "Okay, you can go quickly." ”

Lu Xi took a few steps back, and found that the man really didn't react otherwise, and motioned for Xiao Yuan to stay and look at the other party, Lu Xi really went back to get his luggage.

The location of the luggage is a bit remote, and more than half an hour has passed back and forth.

By the time Lu Xi reappeared, the man had already cut down the bowl-thick tree and tied it behind him, and the branches and leaves had been simply cleaned up, leaving only a tree that was about three meters long.

Seeing Lu Xi coming over with a lot of things on his back, the man breathed a sigh of relief first, "You're back, we can go, my village is a little far from here, it's going to take a long time, you're okay." ”

Lu Xi shook her head, what she was most used to now was probably going a long way.

The man didn't say anything more, and he didn't even notice that Lu Xi didn't pretend to be pitiful anymore at this time, he dragged up the whole tree he was carrying on his shoulders and took the initiative to walk in front.

Lu Xi hesitated for a moment, glanced at Xiao Yuan, who was still hiding in the shadows, and decided to continue to let Xiao Yuan hide and quietly follow behind them to prevent anything from happening.

First, it was because she didn't dare to fully trust the human man in front of her, and secondly, Lu Xi didn't dare to guarantee what the attitude of this human man would be after seeing Xiao Yuan.

She didn't want Xiao Yuan to be hurt because of this.

"Can you tell me your name?" Lu Xi followed the man's footsteps and tentatively asked.

The man was carrying a tree on his back and was not walking fast, so Lu Xi could easily follow behind and keep a safe distance.

"What about you, Vallen?" Valren is not a man of few words, and most of the questions Lu Xi asks can be answered.

"Lu Xi." Lu Xi thought for a while before saying her name, she wanted to see if the other party could understand.

"Lucy? Very nice name. Valren thought for a moment and praised the name very seriously, Lu Xi obviously felt that they didn't seem to be talking about the same name, but he couldn't tell the difference.

"You...... Do you believe me like that? Lu Xi was very skeptical, but her common sense was pitiful, and she was worried that she would expose her ignorance if she was tentative, so she asked directly.

"You have a lot of wounds on your body, and you look used to it." Valren replied, in a sincere tone.

Lu Xi actually doesn't have many wounds on her body, after all, her body is refreshed every day, and she has been surviving in the wild for nearly a month, and she has long known how to reduce injuries.

But the traces on the clothes will not disappear, those scratched cuts are sewn with a rudimentary method, the patches are more attractive than Lu Xi's gray face, and the decorative column on the personal panel has long since become "the broken clothes of the wanderer".

Anyone who saw Lu Xi could see that she had left so many traces after struggling to survive in this forest for a long time, and she was used to these changes.

Valren didn't know much, but he could sense that Lu Xi really needed help.

Lu Xi opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say for a while, in the face of such a sincere person, her defensive heart seemed despicable, but she understood very clearly that what she did was not wrong.

She is so strange to this world.

"Can you tell me about your village?" Abandoning superfluous emotions, Lu Xi used the conversation to talk to Wallen.

Valren didn't mean to guard against Lu Xi, and it may be that the content of Lu Xi's questions was not very important, so he answered them all.

Lu Xi learned that the village where Valren was located was called Kuva Village, which was next to the Prohetic Forest, that is, the forest where Lu Xi had survived for more than ten days, and the people in the village lived by hunting ordinary monsters in the Prohei Forest.

"Ordinary monsters?" Lu Xi was shocked, no matter how you heard the word monster, it didn't seem to be able to be linked to ordinary.

"Yes, low-level monsters generally don't get too close to the edge of the forest, so as long as you are careful, you won't encounter danger." Val Ethics said of course.

After tapping on the side, Lu Xi realized that the word monster is actually equivalent to animals on the earth, and it is a very generalized word.

What makes the distinction is their level, such as the round rabbit that Lu Xi met before, the snake caught by Xiao Yuan, and the little bird, all of which are ordinary monsters that basically have no special abilities and can be easily hunted by humans.

Above this are low-level monsters, low-level monsters are huge, usually a few meters, or even more than ten meters tall, and their physical strength will be stronger, it is difficult for ordinary cold weapons to break through the defense, and most importantly, they will master magic.

That's right, it's magic, that kind of fireball, wind blade, frozen and the like, but the magic mastered by low-level monsters is relatively simple, usually no more than three, and most of them are magic with the same elemental attribute.

With the right response, a dozen armed adult men could hunt them.

There are also middle-level monsters and high-level monsters on top, but after Lu Xi asked, Valren shook his head, "I don't know, middle-level monsters are very dangerous, if there are middle-level monsters appearing, the patrol team will notify us, and the village chief of Luli will take us to Viguli Town to hide." ”

The town of Viguri is the upper town of the village of Kuva, which is more than fifty kilometers away, and the town of Viguli belongs to the kingdom of Trumini, but in fact belongs to the Grant Domain...... Warren said.

Lu Xi was confused about this, and none of the several place names she could figure out.

Fortunately, Valren only knew a few place names and didn't know more about it, so Lu Xi wouldn't expose his ignorance.

The village of Kuva arrived very quickly, and after leaving the Problack Forest, a path appeared on the ground, which was much easier to walk, and it was clear that the people of Kuva village often traveled back and forth to the Problack Forest.

"Walren, you're back, and it looks like you've found good wood...... She was? A middle-aged uncle with a tool greeted Vallen, looked over the tree, and quickly fell on Lu Xi behind Walren.

"Uncle Ama, I met her in the Problack Forest, and she said she was in trouble and was abandoned alone in the forest." Walren scratched his head and replied.

"What a pathetic man." Uncle Amai sighed, and then instructed Vallen, "Then you go back quickly, put your things down, and then take her to the village chief of Luli." Those mercenaries have broken the table again, I'm going to fix it for them, I really don't know what they're doing, this is the fourth time they've broken the table......"

Valren replied and continued walking towards the village, meeting many villagers along the way, and it seemed that the relationship in the village was very harmonious, and they were all able to talk a few words.

Of course, the topic of these few sentences must be indispensable to Lu Xi, who suddenly appeared, almost everyone has to ask again, and Valren is not annoyed, he said the same set of words more than ten times, until he returned to his home, and then quieted down for a short time.

Lu Xi lowered her gaze, and when those people asked, she just listened silently, analyzing some of the information revealed in the villagers' conversations, she didn't interject, and she didn't open her mouth to ask Vallen again, when she didn't understand too much, she had to learn to be silent.

The village chief Luli is the most frequently mentioned figure in the mouths of the villagers, and all the villagers are very convinced of him, and they like to let the village chief Luli decide everything.

Including Lu Xi, a person of unknown origin, the consensus of the villagers is also to let the village chief Luli decide whether she will stay or not.

For a while, Lu Xi was full of vigilance against the village chief Luli who he had never met, and he was very worried about what he would expose in front of such a person.

Unlike Lu Xi's nervousness, the villagers only had a natural curiosity and gossip about Lu Xi's sudden appearance.

"Even though her face was covered in dirt and she couldn't see her face clearly, I bet she would be a pretty girl."

"Do you see her hair? It's so rare to see that it's black, and her eyes are also black. ”

"Hey, did you notice, her clothes...... Vallen won't pick up a noble lady, will he? ”

"Looks like I'm going to tell the village chief of Luli that Vallen has picked up a noble lady back, it's a big deal!"

"What? Valren picked up a wandering aristocratic lady in the Problack Forest?! ”

"Oh my God, Walren is really lucky, will he become a knight master because of this? We're going to call him Lord Vallen in the future. ”

"What's her name? Lucy? Oh, it's Miss Lucy, that's a nice name. ”

……

The village of Kuwa is like a pond where a fish has accidentally jumped into it, and the tranquility of the water and bottom is broken, and the ripples spread farther away.
