Most of the books about that legendary figure were recycled at high prices, but because they were not banned books, you could still find them if you really looked for them. Xu Huo passed through a small city, randomly picked an old bookstore, and found two books in the corner of the bookshelf.

The owner of the store was relatively young. When he saw the book in his hand, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Almost no one reads this old-fashioned hero biography nowadays."

It took too long for Zone 001 to enter the game, and in recent years, the peace has become too much, especially in small cities where no one visits. Therefore, many people have forgotten the period when they first entered the game, without being reminded, or even There will be young people who specialize in understanding that tragic history, and the cultural classes in Area 001 do not teach this. Therefore, even though the book contains a lot of information about the experiences of Area 001 at the beginning of the game, it cannot resonate with many people. Many people just pass it by. brain.

"Then what's popular now?" Xu Huo asked casually.

The boss pointed to the bookshelf next to the checkout counter, "The doomsday type usually starts with the devastating attack on Area 001. Do you want to read it?"

Xu Huo expressed no interest.

The boss is also a senior enthusiast. He took out a book of the same type from the bag at his feet, "This is self-published by me. I give it to you. After reading it, remember to leave me a review on the letter collection terminal. The address is printed on the book." It’s in.”

After speaking, he enthusiastically gave him a few fruits and sent him out with a smile on his face.

Xu Huo was forced to accept the buy one, get two free, get back on the aircraft and continue moving forward, arriving in the city where the dealer lived in the afternoon.

Different from the excessive excitement of Card City and the extreme depression of Flower City, Xiangshan City is a quite free city. Judging from the shops and pedestrians on the street, the pace of life here is also very slow. It is also an agricultural planting city, with the name " People doing business can be seen everywhere with signs saying “pick your own food” and “pick it now and sell it now”.

Correspondingly, the number of flight monitors is also much smaller, but they can basically take care of the main parts of the city.

But the first thing Xu Huo felt was the rays released by different spiritual powers scattered throughout the city.

He was wearing a cube space, so when he stepped into the city boundary, he naturally saw rays in the distance. Of course, the rays of spiritual power are different from space rays. What he saw was actually an instrument. After discovering the instrument, he used his spiritual power to look at it again. After checking it once, I discovered that there were traces of spiritual power on those instruments.

There are props that can contain spiritual power, but they are all actually operated by players. Xu Huo has never seen such an instrument that does not require human control before.

At the same time, he also knew that those instruments detected his spiritual power, so he took back his power after just touching it.

"Young man, would you like some fresh vegetables?" A red-faced old lady came over to talk to her, "It's absolutely fresh and has no pesticides. Just take it out and wash it before eating."

Xu Huo sold two white melons that could be eaten raw, tasted them and nodded, "It's indeed more delicious than other places. Do you have any tips?"

"What's the secret? This place is good." The old lady said with a smile: "Look at the mountains and rivers around us. They are all unpolluted. Weapons factories, craft workshops, and mining companies are all far away. Our place is far away, and even the air is better than other places."

District 001 already has a very large air purifier that can purify the air in a city in a very short time. However, it costs a lot and only a few cities with good economies can afford it.

Xu Huo looked in the direction pointed by the old lady and said, "It is indeed a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters."

"The welfare is good, and he takes good care of us old people. If I hadn't been busy, I wouldn't have to do business!" The old lady seemed to like him very much, and she wanted to chat for a long time while holding his hand.

Xu Huo listened to her for a while before asking about the banker.

"So you came here for the book," the old lady slapped her leg. "You're late. The person who wrote the book has been dead for several years. I heard that his son is also a writer. You can do the same with him."

"You follow this road to the end, and then turn right. The houses at the foot of the mountain belong to their families, and there is an orchard inside. Now is the season for the fruit harvest. You are in good time!"

The banker is easy to find, and it only takes ten minutes to walk there. You can see the roof from a distance through a fruit forest.

There is no anti-theft fence in the orchard. Many children passing by will get in and pick two fruits to eat. When Xu Huo walked into the orchard, a child with a shaved head was directing a group of "little brothers" to pick fruits, and he kept teaching them the experience of picking fruits. The two met. , the bald child glared at Xu Huo, and quickly ran away with the other children.

Xu Huo smiled, picked up the fruit they accidentally dropped on the ground and threw it over, "Your stuff fell."

He didn't use any force, but the overgrown fruit was a bit heavy. When the bald child caught it, he leaned back, stumbled, and sat firmly on his butt.

The children around him all laughed, and the little bald man turned red with anger. He stared at Xu Huo with feigned ferocity and cursed: "You bald man!"

Xu Huo touched his thick hair and said funnyly: "You are balder than me."

"Fool, I'm not bald!" The little bald man jumped up, "I shaved it off, but you are the bald one! Thieves will be bald sooner or later!"

"I'm not here to pick fruit." Xu Huo took out the book in his backpack, "I'm here to visit the author of this book. Do you know him?"

There was a photo of the author at the end of the book. The little bald man took one look at it and ran away, followed by a group of children of the same age. They ran and shouted, and the fruits in their arms dropped, causing the adults passing by to chase and scold him.

After the children ran away, Xu Huo put away his books and walked deeper into the orchard.

This is not an ordinary fruit forest. From the outside, the area of ​​the fruit forest is not large, but he walked inside for at least ten minutes, but still did not reach the dealer's residence. Looking from the same place, the house still seemed so far away.

This fruit forest has special interference, props, characteristics, and evolutionary powers are all possible.

Xu Huo ventured out into the spiritual world, and after opening the spiritual portal several times, he successfully moved forward a certain distance. However, this did not mean that he could reach the destination in one step, or walk straight across, because this fruit forest was under the interference of spiritual power. , what the eyes see may not be real, so he may not be walking in the right direction just now.

However, there is a relatively obvious contrast between the strength and weakness of the interference force, and the weak areas of Anxi seem to be connected into a channel.

It didn't seem like a long distance, but he walked for nearly half an hour.

Going out from the orchard is the banker's residence. In a small connected yard, a man in his thirties was cleaning fallen leaves. When he saw him, he was a little surprised.
