The brownish-brown scar slanted to split his face in two.

The mute old man, though called Old Man, did not look old at all, he had a straight back, and his hair was a mess of blonde hair, as if he had not combed it for a long time, but it was not oily and there were no stains.

It's better to hear people tell it hundreds of times, than to see it for yourself.

I don't know how other people's comments came from, Jiang Yingbai's impression of the mute old man is quite good.

A low, dry, calm voice sounded overhead, "What's the matter?" ”

The mute old man was very tall, nearly two heads taller than Jiang Yingbai, and he was very oppressive.

Jiang Yingbai raised his head, his tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was still no change, "Hello, I want to know something from you." ”

The mute old man looked at the three of them with a cold face, "You are not allowed to enter here, you can go somewhere else to play." ”

"We're not here to play."

The mute old man closed the door with his hand, "Then what do you want to do?" ”

"We want to investigate with you about the disappearance of people in the town."

The mute old man looked the three of them up and down again, "Don't investigate, be careful of transferring yourself, go back to playing." ”

Jiang Yingbai stretched out his hand to stop the door that the dumb old man was about to close, "I can pay." ”

The mute old man didn't let them into the house, but laughed disdainfully, "What money can you children have?" ”

Jiang Yingbai casually took out a handful of free coins from his pocket.

The mute old man's expression froze, and he immediately returned to normal, "It's not okay to have money, it's not early, you children should go back early." ”

After speaking, he closed the door mercilessly, so fast that Jiang Yingbai didn't react.

Seeing this, Lotta wanted to step forward and continue to knock on the door, but was stopped by Jiang Yingbai, "If he doesn't want to say it, forget it, we'll come to him next time." ”

Lotta glared at the abandoned small building unwillingly, and kicked the pebbles next to her, "Hmph, what are you pretending." ”

Jiang Yingbai pulled him back, "Okay, let's go back first." ”

The three of them made their way to the tavern, passing by Pocodo, who was still handing out food to the homeless.

The three didn't pay much attention to him, but he stopped them, "Those three people in front." ”

Jiang Yingbai turned back with doubts, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

Pocodo smiled kindly, and walked to the three of them, "You guys are so good-looking, did you come to Pingyu Town recently?" ”

Lota pulled Xia to lower her head and hid behind Jiang Yingbai, avoiding his exploratory gaze.

Jiang Yingbai replied, "Yes." ”

Pocodo took out a pure black wand from his pocket, which seemed to be made of black magic crystal, and he showed it like the three of them, his eyes flashing with imperceptible pride.

"Where are you from? What are you doing in Pingyu Town, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me, maybe I can help you. ”

Jiang Yingbai smiled at him, clenched his hands into fists, looked up at him, and said with some excitement, "Really? Thank you for your kindness, you are such a great magician. ”

Pocodo smiled and reached out to rub Jiang Yingbai's head.

was dodged by Jiang Yingbai with his head down, she reached out to take the wand in his hand, and when Pocodo saw this, he immediately took a step back and squinted at Jiang Yingbai.

Jiang Yingbai raised his head, blinked, and looked at him innocently, "Great Mr. Magician, can't you let me see your wand?" ”

The corners of Pocodo's mouth twitched, realizing that he had overreacted.

Pocodo took out his magic wand and handed it to Jiang Yingbai, "Of course you can." ”

Jiang Yingbai took it, hehe, and smirked twice, "Thank you, great magician." ”

Jiang Yingbai pretended to be a fool, raised the magic wand into the air, looked closer, looked at it from a distance, touched it back and forth, and it took a while before she returned the magic wand to Pecdo.

She thanked sincerely, "Thank you, great magician, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have seen a magic wand in my life, thank you so much." ”

Pocodo enjoyed her adoration so much that he nodded in satisfaction.

It turned out to be just a country kid who didn't know anything, but it's a pity that this good skin.

Jiang Yingbai waved goodbye to him vigorously, "Then I'll go first, great magician." ”

But he was grabbed by the back collar by Pocodo, "Wait, you haven't said what you do." ”

Jiang Yingbai turned his head a little speechlessly.

With a smile on his face, he said to Peccodo, "I'm here to play." ”

Percodo pondered the word, "Play? ”

"That's right."

Just as Jiang Yingbai was thinking about what reason to make up, she felt that the corner of her clothes was being ripped off, and when she looked back, it was Luo Ta, who had been keeping her head down.

He said in a soft voice, "Sister, I'm hungry, I want to go home for dinner, let's go back, I'm still a little sleepy......"

Jiang Yingbai immediately received it, "Okay, let's go back now." ”

But Pocodo stopped Jiang Yingbai again, he took out a piece of meat wrapped in leaves from the basket he carried with him, and put it in Jiang Yingbai's hand.

"Hungry? I've got something to eat here. ”

Jiang Yingbai pretended to be surprised and said, "Thank you so much." ”

Jiang Yingbai weighed it, it weighed about a catty, and the magic was that such a large piece of meat did not spill a little oil.

Jiang Yingbai handed the meat to Lotta, but Lota didn't answer, only heard him say, "Hmph, sister, why don't you listen to my last word!" I also said I was sleepy! ”

After speaking, Lotta angrily threw Jiang Yingbai's sleeve, crossed his waist and turned around and left alone.

Jiang Yingbai smiled apologetically at Pocodo, "I'm very sorry, my brother has a bad temper, I'll talk to you another day." ”

After speaking, Jiang Yingbai pulled Xia to catch up with Luota.

Percodo stared at the figures of the three until their backs completely disappeared into the street, and he touched his chin thoughtfully.

Although the girl just showed that she admired Pecco very much, she didn't say anything about what Pecco wanted to know.

Is it intentional or is it really stupid?

Pocodo hates accidents very much, especially under his nose, he wants to secretly control everything around him, and all people and things should run according to his own control.

There can be no accidents and no strangeness.

Crises never come out of nowhere, bringing down the king's rebels, or revolting overnight, everything is foreshadowed.

Therefore, he will not tolerate things that do not know the bottom line, enter his territory, and strangle everything uncontrollable in the cradle.

Pocodo, who was looking down and thinking, didn't notice that someone nearby was staring at him.

Of course, Jiang Yingbai and the others didn't find out.

After confirming that he was the only one following Jiang Yingbai, the mute old man turned around and walked back to the abandoned small building.

……

Lotta frequently looked behind her.

Jiang Yingbai said, "I shouldn't have followed." ”

Lotta rolled her eyes, but she could be regarded as getting rid of him, "Is he eyeing us?" ”

Jiang Yingbai also thought so, "It should be." ”
