Chapter 2239: Beheading at Night(2/2)

Zilan's eyes gradually turned from curiosity to disgust.

"Did you find anything?" Zi Chen looked at Zi Lan.

Zilan said: "They all have murderous intent, and they seem to want to kill everyone around them, but they hide it well, like demons in human skin, deliberately pretending, and they are not good people at first glance.

"

Zilan has never seen a demon, this is just a metaphor.

Her voice was not suppressed, and many people nearby heard her words.

Suddenly, these people stopped and stared at Zilan, their eyes gradually becoming cold.

The lively atmosphere turned gloomy, Zi Chen cheered up, his expression solemn and vigilant.

These people did not take action, and even smiled kindly at Zi Lan and continued to work.

"Let's take a walk first."

The four of them passed by a tavern and heard a voice coming from the window, "Damn it, there are more and more people. There are so many competitors. We must chop off a few more heads to store them at night."

"Hehe, it depends on what tasks the Yamen will give tonight."

Wu Haoqi took the opportunity to enter the tavern and obtained important information with a bottle of wine.

These people are all here for the mantra, but if they want to obtain the mantra, they must complete a series of tasks. The person who issues the tasks is the yamen, and the tasks will be issued an hour before dark.

"Where's Zi Chen?"

After inquiring about the news, there was no trace of Zi Chen.

"Go find that kid."

The little boy is a pickpocket, and he moves very quickly, but the people here are also smart.

The first time he took action, he was caught in action. He kept begging for mercy and had one of his arms broken.

After that, he still didn't give up. He stole and grabbed with his left hand, and this time he broke another leg.

After stumbling, I tried for the third time and finally succeeded in taking away a storage bag.

He just came in today, so he lacks vigilance.

But before the little boy could be happy, an older child appeared, snatched away the storage bag, and then beat the little boy again.

The little boy was covered in blood and moved away step by step.

From beginning to end, he did not fight back, but kept kneeling down to beg for mercy.

Zi Chen watched silently from behind without making any move to stop him, just like a spectator, quietly watching other people's lives.

The little boy finally moved to a dilapidated building, where many people gathered, including children, adults, and the tall boy who snatched his storage bag.

The little boy got nothing today. Before he could explain the reason, he was kicked out by the tall boy, and then a group of people came up to beat him.

Until the little boy was dying.

"Don't kill anyone!"

One person said: "Save his head to make up the numbers at night."

The little boy was thrown into a drafty room. He was covered in blood and the wounds on his body were still bleeding.

If the bleeding is not stopped in time, he may not be able to survive tonight.

Suddenly, a cool feeling came, and the wound on the little boy's body was quickly stopping bleeding.

The little boy opened his eyes with difficulty, and what he saw was a piece of dried meat.

He was stunned for a moment, then continued to raise his head, and saw the person in front of him through the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Why did you save me?"

After a cup of tea, the little boy gnawed the dried meat with difficulty, and all the wounds on his body had stopped bleeding.

Zi Chen didn't answer and asked, "Can you tell me where exactly this place is?"

The little boy couldn't understand that if he wanted to know something like this, he could just ask anyone.

But he was saved, and this kindness is still there.

This is a remote town based in the desert, and few outsiders come here.

Although life in the small town is poor, everyone is happy.

Until one day, a group of adventurers came here and it was said that they found a treasure here.

More adventurers came later.

There were more and more adventurers, and there was a risk of losing control, so the Yamen came up with a way to reduce the risk by issuing tasks.

The little boy can already walk, and his broken arms and legs have been healed by Zi Chen.

He took Zi Chen outside the Yamen, where many people had already gathered.

Wu Haoqi and three others have been waiting here for a long time.

"Why did you bring him here?" Wu Hao looked at the little boy angrily.

The little boy was stared at by Wu Haoqi. Recalling the previous scene, he was so frightened that his body was trembling.

"He brought me here." Zi Chen said, "Has the mission been released?"

"Not yet, it should be about time."

As soon as he finished speaking, three government officials came out with notices and posted them.

Today’s mission: Kill one head at night!

After seeing the above content, there was an uproar all around.

These are all new today.

There were also people laughing, all of whom were old residents.

"What does this mean?" Zi Chen asked.
