It is undeniable that some faithful believers who strictly follow the doctrine in the Holy Church of Glory all possess the qualities of noble character. Black sheep exists in every group. If the black sheep is regarded as this group, it is undoubtedly a narrow and superficial prejudice.

Xia Lan's prejudice against the Glorious Holy Temple originated from seeing too many dark scandals inside him in the game in his previous life, so he left a deep impression on him. If he eliminated prejudice and carefully considered it, he would have no grudges and no grudges with the Glorious Holy Temple. He was responsible for the consequences today.

The conflict in Sissinia can shirk the tasks arranged by the system. However, from the fact that Port Louis is greedy for the relics in Adelena's body to protect her from the escape, his relationship with the Holy Temple of Glory was truly incompatible. If he had let go of his greed and abandoned Adelena and flew away alone, would he have fallen to this point today?

After the night watchman in the church used the holy light to suppress the toxins in Nina's body for the time being, Xia Lan thanked the other party and directly brought the lost Joanna and her daughter back to the hotel.

Without any sleepiness, he began to reflect.

Then--

He found that he was like the fierce and evil star of the Tiansha, and that everyone who was close to him would almost never have a good end.

From the oldest Aubr family to the current Joanna mother and daughter, they all suffered a disaster because of themselves. If they had not appeared, their fate might have a completely different direction.

For whom does one's own misfortune bring about the misfortune of others?

Looking at the sad moonlight outside the window, how many times have he been watching the moon instead of meditating? He suddenly remembered that he had been in this world for many years, from youth to standing in front of him, he had gradually forgotten how he had spent these years.

Unfortunately, he was about to die before he could take a good look at the world.

It has nothing to do with sentimentality, it just explains a cold fact.

After resting in Linquan Town for three days, Xia Lan repurchased a carriage and prepared to set off for the Mist Forest. After paying some money, he and Joanna and his daughter left the town.

Since I learned that Nina was infected with a strange poison. Joanna, who has always been strong, has completely fallen into a state of mental collapse. She is waiting by Nina who is unconscious at all times, and her body is getting thinner. If it weren't for Xia Lan's careful care, she would have become another serious patient.

The north of the kingdom, which was not affected by the war, was still peaceful. They followed the caravan without any accidents on the way, and the surveillancers in the darkness slowly disappeared. When there was still some distance from the fog forest, Xia Lan and the others parted ways with the caravan, because few businessmen's business touched the fog forest. From this, it can be seen that even merchants who pursue profits and dare to risk hanging were very afraid of the fog forest rumor.

According to ancient documents, the Mist Forest was the earliest primeval forest that appeared after the birth of Elderland. At that time, the Mist Forest had no name at all. It was an ordinary forest until the Silver Age. Until the age of natural disasters, the laws changed. At that time, the most serious tides of monsters broke out in the Mist Forest. The rich fog spread all day long, and even the disorder of the law continued in this mysterious forest full of fog and did not recover.

After the Age of Natural Disasters, a group of powerful lawmakers organized to go to the Mist Forest to investigate the truth, but none of them survived. From then on, the Mist Forest became another forbidden area in the eyes of the people of Elderland.

There are many rumors about the Mist Forest, and generally they are warning people not to get close.

But compared to players in this game, Xia Lan knows the reality and reality of the Mist Forest more than anyone else.

In the past life, the Mist Forest was a map that many players regarded as the top ten must-explored maps. Not having to explore this forest means simply playing this game.

I don’t know what the game developers think. Players have never been able to untie their mysterious veil after breaking into the Mist Forest. Every player who steps into the Mist Forest will feel the suppression of the law. The more they move forward, the more severe the suppression of the law. Especially the fog with a visibility of less than half a meter makes players unable to distinguish between the east, south, west and north at all, and the props that distinguish directions are all invalid and useless. And be careful of unknown monsters that suddenly attack you in the forest at any time.

Despite this, the lucky player in the game successfully went deep into the hinterland of the Mist Forest and found a living wooden house. However, the lucky player was about to investigate the wooden house carefully and died inexplicably. After looking through the system prompts, he found out that he had inhaled a fatal toxin that caused death.

The mysterious atmosphere created by the Mist Forest has made many players exploring unremittingly. In combination with the weird game music, they are finally nicknamed as a map dedicated to practicing courage.

The night watchman of the church asked Xia Lan to go to the Mist Forest to find someone. Someone naturally had a way out. When he recalled the wooden house in the Mist Forest, he thought that the person he was looking for should be the owner of the wooden house.

Now that the token is in hand, coupled with the exploration experience of players in previous lives, he will risk going even if there is only 10% chance.

He did not think about the consequences of failure, because he would never allow himself to fail.

Bailu Town, the closest town in the Mist Forest area, is far less prosperous than other mainland towns. The streets are all depressed. Many shops are locked in their doors, and there are very few pedestrians coming and going.

Perhaps because he had lived on the border of the Mist Forest for a long time, the townspeople here were quite brave. When they saw Xia Lan's weird appearance, they just looked at him curiously, unlike in other places where people were avoided. They found a good hotel to settle down. Out of the habit of knowing a place, he began to wander around Bailu Town and waited until sunset before he could barely return.

The hotel business was very sluggish. The bald middle-aged boss always looked listless. He didn't feel in the mood to scold the lazy guy in the store. Xia Lan sat alone in the lobby to solve the dinner. The one from Joanna and his daughter was sent to the room. I guess he didn't even have a few bites of that dinner at the end.

"Guest, you are the first guest I have received this month. I'm curious why you came to our remote border area?"

Perhaps it was really bored, the bald boss brought a pot of wine to Xia Lan, with a smile on his face and opened the topic without any relevance.

"Do you ask this every time a guest comes here?" Xia Lan took a sip of the water and said.

"Yes!" The bald boss said with a smile: "Because dealing with you outsiders can make my boring life interesting."

"Since you want to make life interesting, you can leave here, and the outside world will be more interesting than you think." Xia Lan said lightly.

"I did have this idea when I was young, but my family refused to let me leave. When I got older and got married and had children, I had no idea of ​​going out for a walk." The bald boss shook his head and sighed. "By the way, guest, have you not told me why I came here? Of course, if you don't want to say it, I won't force it."

"I'm here to find someone." Xia Lan said.

"Looking for someone? Do you have relatives in Bailu Town?" The bald boss said in surprise.

"No, the person I'm looking for is not in Bailu Town." Xia Lan said.

"Since the other party is not in Bailu Town, why are you here?" the bald boss said strangely.

"Because Bailu Town is the only way to find the other party." Xia Lan said.

The only way to go? The bald boss was immediately confused.

"Boss, you have lived in Bailu Town for so many years. Have you ever seen any strange people in your impression?" Xia Lan asked directly without thinking about it.

"Strange person...are you?" The bald boss, who interrupted his thoughts, stared at him and smiled.

"What about other than me?" Xia Lan said without caring about the other party's joke.

"I think about it..." Looking at the other party's solemn appearance, the bald boss no longer showed frivolity. He frowned and thought for a long time, saying: "There is indeed one who wants to say strange people. From what I can remember, every year there will be a weird man wearing a hood to buy a lot of things."

"Can you tell me about that weird person in detail?" Xia Lan's eyes lit up.

"If the guest is interested, I will naturally be willing to speak." The bald boss said: "When it comes to that weirdo, although the other party wears a hood every time, it makes people unable to see their faces clearly, but the sound can roughly tell that she is a woman, her age is unknown, because her voice is very distinctive, and I can't describe it specifically. In short, the kind that people will never forget after hearing it..."

"But this is not the point. The point is that her whereabouts are very mysterious. You will never know when she appeared in the town and when she left, like a ghost born out of thin air." The bald boss poured himself a glass of wine and continued, "Faced with such a mysterious strange man, people in the town have become accustomed to it over time. Moreover, she is very generous every time she comes to the town to shop, and she buys a lot of things, which also makes her the person that merchants in the town look forward to seeing the most every year... However, since the previous year, someone found that her voice has changed, becoming no longer as distinctive as before, but instead exudes a sense of immatureness. Unfortunately, I have not seen the other person in the past few years, so I cannot know the change in the other person's voice."

"Has she been here this year?" Xia Lan asked.

"No." The bald boss took a sip of wine and said, "But it has been almost a year since she arrived last time. If nothing unexpected happens, she will come to the town again in the past few months. I just said that her whereabouts are very mysterious, and no one knows when she will appear."

"Thank you for your advice. I think I have found the person I am looking for." Xia Lan nodded and thanked him.

"What? The person you are looking for is that weird?" The bald boss said in shock.

"Maybe."

"Sure enough, all weird people's friends are weird people." (To be continued.)
