Chapter 673

In the middle of the night, Su Bai walked down the river alone. He did not walk very fast because he was injured. After walking for more than three hours, his injuries had basically healed, but this had also drained almost all his strength. Finally, he could not walk anymore and sat down against a stone by the river. "What a pity!" Su Bai thought to himself. "What a pity!"

There were more mosquitoes by the river at night. However, Su Bai didn't attract mosquitoes. Because of this, he didn't even get disturbed by mosquitoes. Instead, he seemed to be particularly lonely.

Su Bai wasn't afraid of loneliness. He had long been used to it.

Ever since his parents left, he had been enduring and getting used to this feeling.

He scooped up some river water and brought it to his dry and cracked mouth. The river water had a bit of an earthy smell. After drinking a few mouthfuls, Su Bai opened his arms and stretched. He was about to stand up, but he didn't succeed because he was weak.

The fight with Gyatso had almost drained all of Su Bai's strength. However, Su Bai didn't regret it. He didn't even think about whether he was still in the stage of the disease. In fact, a long time ago, when he first started the Assassin Club and killed someone, Su Bai clearly realized that when he killed someone, he might be the real him.

He took a deep breath and exhaled heavily.

Su Bai didn't know where the little guy had drifted down to. He also didn't know if he could find it again.

Forget it, I won't look for it. The little guy could swim comfortably in the water tank on the first day of its birth. It definitely won't drown.

Su Bai closed his eyes and directly began to rest.

That night, Su Bai lay down by the river and fell asleep. When dawn broke and the dew condensed, it felt a little misty. A fishing boat broke the silence here.

During the Qing Dynasty, the population hadn't reached the explosive period of the future. Moreover, this was not an important city in ancient times. The population was not very dense. Basically, there were only a few scattered villages outside the county.

Therefore, that night, Su Bai slept very peacefully.

"Hey, young man, what's wrong?" An old man stood on the fishing boat. The old man's hair and beard were all white. He held onto a long pole and shouted at Su Bai, who was lying on the shore with half of his body soaked in the rising river water.

Su Bai opened his eyes. What followed was an extreme feeling of hunger. However, he didn't directly grab the old fisherman and suck his blood to replenish himself.

He only waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. He then got up from the ground, looked around, and chose to walk in the direction of the county.

In fact, Su Bai knew in his heart that he could not go any further. The horror broadcast would not allow him to be too far away from the place where the story took place, let alone travel around the world. Once he insisted on staying far away from the county, various unexpected punishments might appear. This was a tacit understanding between the listeners and the broadcast.

However, at that moment, a child's cry came from the old man's boat.

Su Bai's body. "Su Bai's body's body," Thunder "," Bai "of" of. "

The old man hurriedly leaned into the fishing boat and carried the child out. He coaxed him at the bow.

"Oh, oh, oh, be good. Don't make a fuss. Oh, oh, oh, don't cry, don't cry."

The moment Su Bai saw the child, he knew that it was the little fellow that the fox gave birth to. The little fellow seemed to have sensed that Su Bai was nearby. He struggled to get out of the old man's embrace. He turned his head and saw Su Bai standing by the river. He spread his arms and asked for a hug.

Su Bai pursed his lips and didn't say anything.

The old man wrapped the child in a cloth dotingly. "Don't move, don't move. Be a good boy. Don't catch a cold, poor child."

"Sir, can you give me a ride?" Su Bai asked.

The old man looked at Su Bai's blood-stained and torn clothes. He didn't hesitate and nodded. "Sure, come on up."

After saying that, the old man held the child in one hand and held the pole with the other hand. He pulled the small fishing boat closer to the shore.

Su Bai jumped on the boat. The little fellow was overjoyed. He jumped out of the old man's embrace and was caught by Su Bai.

"Hehe, he likes you." The old man smiled kindly when he saw this scene.

Su Bai held the little fellow in his arms. The little fellow kept rubbing his forehead against Su Bai intimately. Even Su Bai himself didn't know why the little fellow was so close to him.

Perhaps, the ones who were even more confused were the monk and the others. They didn't understand why Su Bai was so desperate to protect the child since he didn't want to eat him.

When the child was born, his innocent heart hadn't been tainted by the world, so his instincts were sometimes very sensitive.

"Where are you going, young man?"

Su Bai smiled. "Aren't you going to ask me why I'm so close to this child? Aren't you going to ask me about the clothes I'm wearing? "

The old man nodded silently. Then, he carefully looked at Su Bai and confirmed, "There's nothing to ask.

I picked this child up from the river. You should be the one who took care of him before. This child is smart and has a good memory. This is a good thing. "The old man avoided the topic and dwelled on the trivial.

"So, you're not going to return him to me?"

"Young man, I think you're destined … Ahem …" The old man seemed to feel that what he was going to say was too direct. He changed the topic and asked, "Young man, may I ask if your parents are safe?"

"I know what you're going to say."

Su Bai naturally knew what the old man was trying to say. It was nothing more than that he was destined to be alone. The death of his parents was a good explanation, and he could not bring this child out of this story world. If he continued to stay by his side, he would be directly teleported away by the horror broadcast after his mission was completed. At that time, the child would be alone again.

"Mm." The old man responded and looked at Su Bai. "So, this child is the best ending for this old man. I'll take good care of him."

"Old man, how many years do you think you have left?" Su Bai scolded jokingly.

The old man wasn't angry. He counted with his fingers and replied, "I don't know how many years I have left. I only know that I'm already more than 120 years old this year."

Hearing this, Su Bai was stunned. He originally thought that the old man was just a layman Taoist who knew how to read faces and knew some martial arts. He didn't expect the old man to be a Taoist Master.

He was really hiding his strength.

Su Bai reached out to grab the old man's neck. The old man didn't move and let Su Bai grab his neck.

"What do you have to prove your age?"

Su Bai didn't exert any force with his fingers. He just looked at the old man calmly.

The old man shook his head. "I don't know either. I've lived most of my life like a dog's."

Su Bai let go of his hand. "If you can't prove it, I can't give this child to you."

Although the old man picked up the child from the river and didn't eat him directly, it might be because he was kind, or it might be because he couldn't see through the child's background and the benefits of eating him. But what if the child met someone who really knew how to do things in the future?

Su Bai didn't know why he deliberately thought about the child's future safety. The child's connection with this world would only be severed after the mission ended. This world would never have anything to do with him. Moreover, in his previous experiences, Su Bai only treated the people in this world as NPCs. He didn't have much feelings for them, nor did he see them as people.

The old man pondered for a while and said, "Actually, there's a way to prove it.

"Actually, it's not that there's no way to prove it. For example, the mottled aura on your body is clearly that of a zombie. But there are other auras, such as those of a living person, and some that this old man has never seen before."

Su Bai glanced at the old man but didn't say anything.

The old man stretched out his hand and placed it on Su Bai's shoulder.

"Young man, you should be someone from the demonic path, right? Your cultivation method is too overbearing. It can easily squeeze out your life's potential. It doesn't match this old man's philosophy. "

"Spit it out." Su Bai seemed a little impatient.

The old man took out a brocade box and handed it to Su Bai. "This old man has a Longevity Pill that I refined myself. It can harmonize the body's aura. I'll give it to you."

Su Bai opened the box and saw a light blue pill. He wasn't afraid that the old man had poisoned the pill. After all, with his physique, it would be very difficult to poison himself. Have you ever heard of a zombie being poisoned to death?

Picking up the pill, Su Bai put it in his mouth. The pill melted in his mouth like cotton candy. This surprised Su Bai. Then, Su Bai felt a neutral and peaceful aura flow into his body. His vampire and zombie bloodlines suddenly became quiet, like docile kittens. This was very helpful for him in nurturing his bloodlines and switching bloodlines.

When Su Bai raised his head to look at the old man again, he found that he was already standing by the river. The fishing boat was gradually moving away, and there seemed to be a child on the boat calling out to him.

Su Bai looked down at his feet. It was the place where he had just slept. Did he not get on the boat at all?

"Main Mission 1 has been completed. Now releasing Main Mission 2 …"

The voice of a horror broadcast sounded in his mind. Su Bai suddenly laughed silently.

"You're really old-fashioned. You came up with the idea of getting the old grandpa to give you a pill as a reward after completing the mission. Is the storyline you're pursuing and wanting this kind of melodramatic? This is too boring. "

However, soon, Su Bai couldn't laugh anymore because the content of Main Mission 2 had been announced:

"Main Mission 2: Bring the baby back to the demon's lair!

Mission Period: 30 days.

Mission reward will be announced after the mission is completed!

If the mission fails, 3000 story points will be deducted. Those who don't have enough story points will be erased immediately! "

Standing by the river, Su Bai looked at the fishing boat that had disappeared in front of him.

In the wind,

It was a little messy.
