Chapter 201 The Old Man
The distance on the radar showed that it was not very far, but after walking for a long time, Xiao Ye discovered that his position and the position of the material on the radar were actually only a small distance closer.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Ye couldn't help but patted his head. This was a miniature radar, and the distance was completely different from reality. Moreover, this radar was extremely crude and did not even have an actual scale, which led to Xiao Ye's first I didn't recognize the reality for a while.
Xiao Ye sighed. At this speed, he estimated that he would have to walk for several hours to reach his destination. This was still calculated based on the straight-line distance. If there were any obstacles on the road or there was no road, he would have to go around. Several laps.
Xiao Ye patted his stomach and felt a hint of hunger.
…
In a high-end hotel in Deyun County, two women were leaning on the sofa and discussing something. If Xiao Ye were here, he would definitely recognize that one of the women was the woman who slapped her before.
Perhaps because they were in the hotel, both of them were dressed casually, showing off their flawless bodies to the fullest.
"Sister Xi, if I read it correctly just now, you gave away your contact information. Could it be that your love is in turmoil?" Another woman said.
"Don't talk nonsense." Xiyao glared at her best friend: "It's just some misunderstanding."
As he spoke, he recounted what happened on the train.
"Hey, I don't believe it. It's not your style to give away your contact information for just such a thing." Ouyang Qi teased.
"Believe it or not." Xiyao rolled her eyes angrily: "Let's get down to business!"
Ouyang Qi casually walked to the sofa, put her long legs on the table, and said nonchalantly: "Sister, we are here to be examiners, not candidates. What are you worried about!"
Xiyao smiled awkwardly. In front of her best friends, she no longer maintained her aloof look, saying, "This isn't our first time. We have to be nervous."
"Alas." Ouyang Qi sighed and said, "Actually, we are just here to go through the motions. We are not the ones who can really decide the outcome."
Xiyao was stunned for a moment, not understanding why she said that.
Seeing the look of her best friend, Ouyang Qi couldn't help but shook her head: "Sister Xiyao, please don't be so naive. For an assessment like this, the result has already been decided before it even starts. The assessment is just a formality. "
"As for us, we are just here to go through the motions and add some experience to our resume. Otherwise, why do you think the academy would let us come? We have no need at all for this kind of thing, okay?"
Xiyao was stunned. Fortunately, she was still confident. She had been preparing for a long time. She thought she could have a big fight, but she didn't expect it was just a formality.
"Actually, this is not the real purpose of our coming here." Ouyang Qi hesitated and did not speak immediately.
Originally, the college did not intend for Xiyao to participate in this matter, but seeing her best friend looking so shocked, Ouyang Qi couldn't bear it.
"What's the matter?" Xiyao asked.
"During this period, the east side has merged into several strange worlds. I heard that someone ran away over there. According to the clues, his last appearance was here, so the college asked me to check." Ouyang Qi said. .
"You mean those weird worlds that couldn't be cultivated and were directly integrated into the main world?" Xiyao frowned and asked, "Since it's an investigation, why didn't you inform me?"
Ouyang Qi shrugged: "My eldest lady, who are you? If something happens to you, how will you explain it to your family? The college does not dare to take this risk!"
Xiyao couldn't help but look blank at her, and said with a snort: "If you hide something from me in the future, I will reveal your identity and make you the same as me!"
…
After a lot of hard work, Xiao Ye finally filled his stomach, but the process was a bit hard to describe. Not only that, he also got some of the world's common currency. As for how he got it, he didn't break the law, and he didn't do anything to good people. .
There is no need to say more about the process.
After getting the money, Xiao Ye also found out the destination he was going to, which was the holy place for trainers in the world - the Trainer Center.
After finding out more about it, Xiao Ye couldn't help but sigh. In his current state, it would be even more difficult to get something from a place like this and escape unscathed than to reach the sky.
Xiao Ye called a taxi from the roadside and went to the trainer center. He had already learned that the trainer center would start the assessment tomorrow. If he wanted to get what the system needed, let alone other things, at least he had to get it first. Let's get into it later.
Xiao Ye found a dark hotel nearby, and after some bargaining, he rented a room for one night at a very low price.
Because of the trainer's assessment tomorrow, the surrounding hotels are already full of guests. Even this kind of informal hotel is almost full.
As night fell, Xiao Ye turned off the lights in the room, turned off a set of night clothes he borrowed from a kind person, and quietly walked out of the back door of the hotel. He planned to explore the surrounding area first.
It was already around ten o'clock in the evening, and there were still many pedestrians on the street. In order not to attract attention, Xiao Ye specifically chose a road with few pedestrians. Because of the system radar, it was equivalent to Xiao Ye having a miniature map, so he was naturally not afraid. get lost.
The hotel at the Breeder Center was already full of people. The hotel where Xiao Ye stayed was not far from the Breeder Center. Even if Xiao Ye chose the nearest road, he took several detours because of the large number of people.
When Xiao Ye walked into a certain alley, only two streets away from the training center, an old man suddenly walked in front of him.
"Ahem." The old man kept coughing as he walked towards Xiao Ye.
The old man had his back bent, and Xiao Ye couldn't see his appearance clearly. He could only see that he was covering his mouth with one hand and clasped his chest with the other.
Xiao Ye didn't pay attention at first and continued to walk forward. When he approached the old man, he gave way to the side. However, the moment the old man passed by, Xiao Ye felt a familiar breath.
It belongs to the aura of professionals in the Wanyu World, but this aura is very light, so light that it is almost impossible to feel it, and it seems that it is about to be assimilated into this world.
"Ahem." The old man had already coughed up blood, and there was quite a lot of it. It dripped from the cracks in his hands and fell to the ground.
"Old man, are you okay?" Xiao Ye couldn't help but turn around and ask. If it were normal, Xiao Ye would not want to cause such trouble, but now this old man has the aura of the world of all realms, so he can't sit back and watch. reason.
"Plop!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as Xiao Ye opened his mouth, the old man fell to the ground.
Xiao Ye was startled and quickly went over to help the old man up.
The old man's face was frighteningly pale, and his breath was vague. He sat on the ground and couldn't get up for a while. He said feebly: "It's okay, it's all old and sick. As I get older, my body is not as strong as before."
Xiao Ye was silent. The moment his hand touched the old man, he knew that the old man definitely didn't have much time. His body was so serious that he was about to die. It could even be said that his body was already dead. His is just the thought in his heart.
"Let me help you sit next to him." Xiao Ye stretched out his hand towards the old man.
The old man nodded and held Xiao Ye's outstretched hand. His hand was as cold as a dry bone, and like the roots of an old tree without any nutrition.
Xiao Ye helped the old man lean against the wall.
Under the dim light, Xiao Ye looked at the old man. Whether a person is beautiful or not, the skin is actually secondary, but the bones are the thing that best reflects a person's beauty.
Beauty is in the bones, not the skin, and this saying is actually the same when applied to men.
Although the old man's skin is very wrinkled, judging from the distribution of his facial bones, the old man must have been a very handsome man when he was young.
"Young man, are you in your hometown now?" The old man asked after kicking for a few times.
Xiao Ye shook his head.
"Actually, I also know that you are not. There is something about you that is incompatible with this world. I could tell at first glance that you are not from here." The old man said with a smile, and then coughed a few more times.
Xiao Ye was stunned. Can you see this?
"Old man, you'd better say less." Xiao Ye looked at the blood on the corner of his mouth and said with some worry. His body had reached the edge of collapse, and coughing up blood was a sign of it.
"I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say anything if I don't say more," the old man said.
"How could it be? Old man, take a good rest and talk as much as you want in the future." Xiao Ye comforted him.
The old man sighed, shook his head, and said calmly: "I know my body better than anyone else. It's a miracle that I can survive until now."
Xiao Ye didn't know what to say for a while. After contact, he already knew that the old man was indeed a professional in the Wanyu World, but the power in his body had all dissipated like him. The old man wanted to forcibly retain this power, so this resulted in The body cannot bear it and something goes wrong.
"I really want to go back to my hometown, but it's a pity that it's too far away." The old man sighed, took out something from his arms, and handed it to Xiao Ye: "Young man, we are destined to meet each other. You are kind-hearted, and Regarding my temper, I don’t think you have any strength in you, so just think of this book as your reward for accompanying me on the last journey.”
Xiao Ye waved his hand and said quickly: "Old man, I have no merit and no reward. I haven't done anything. I can't have this thing."
The old man glared at Xiao Ye: "Take it, I picked this thing up from somewhere. Although it is not a good thing, it is not comparable to ordinary things. In this world, there is no power at all. How can you Can you survive?"
