Really New Village, Farmhouse Tavern.
Ye Cang's group of three arrived at the tavern and found North at a simple square table. Sitting with him was a bearded man drinking ale.
"Uncle, we've dealt with 100 slimes." Ye Cang got straight to the point.
"Young lads, thanks. Here's your reward ~ ~ Burp ~" North burped and gave Ye Cang a silver coin.
"Congratulations, you've completed 'The Cause of North's Headache'. Received 100 experience and a random normal weapon."
"Congratulations, you've received a willow bow (Normal)." Ye Cang received a system message and a short bow appeared in her bag.
Willow Bow (Normal)
Category: Short Bow
Requirements: 8 Strength
Damage: 2 – 4
Similarly, Chang Zhengxiong received a thick iron hand axe with damage of 2 – 5. Lele received a crude longsword with damage of 3 – 4.
"You can leave now ~ Burp ~" North saw Ye Cang's expectant expression and waved his hand impatiently.
Ye Cang's group of three saw that the two drunkards probably didn't have any more quests, so they slowly walked out of the tavern.
"I feel like I've lost out …" Chang Zhengxiong looked at the starry sky.
Ye Cang nodded, then shook her head. "Right now, currency is very valuable and useful. I just looked at the black market's price. 1 copper is already worth 100 federal dollars (100 federal dollars is equivalent to 10 RMB). This quest only gave us 1 silver. There aren't any monsters on the forums that drop money, aside from slimes that occasionally drop 1 copper."
"Then what do we do now?" Lin Le asked, not really understanding.
"Let's go. I want to buy some arrows. Let's go to that granny's general store. Oh right, Lele, give me your longsword …" Ye Cang said, then took Lin Le's longsword and sheathed it at her waist. She carried her short bow and brought the two of them to the crude general store.
The three of them entered the grocery store. The dim light from the oil lamp barely provided them with a view of the interior of the store.
"Bro, the old granny suddenly has a quest face …" Chang Zhengxiong looked at the old woman called Rica, who was full of worry and restlessness.
"Granny, is something wrong?" Ye Cang nodded and asked with concern. Her concerned expression didn't seem to be fake.
"My grandson Jesse still hasn't come back yet. I'm so afraid that something might have happened to him. Young lads, can you help me look for him?" Rica saw the concern in Ye Cang's eyes and asked in a choked voice.
Ye Cang nodded. "Then can you tell me where your grandson went?"
"I don't know either, but he said he was going to give me a surprise today." Old Lady Rica said in a panic.
"He couldn't have gone to the forest in the north, could he? Boohoo, it's all my fault! It's all my fault! I was the one who told him that there was a mysterious ancient tree there, and that as long as he made a wish to it, good things would happen. Jesse and I depend on each other for survival, if something were to happen to him, I don't want to live anymore!! "The old woman, Rica, cried in grief and self-blame." I beg you, can you help me find Jesse? I beg you!! "
The old lady's pleas were very sorrowful. Ye Cang looked at her wrinkled face, which was full of concern and worry. A kind and amiable face full of wrinkles appeared in his mind.
"Granny! Granny! They all call me a White Hair Monster and throw stones at me. Am I really a monster? "
"Little Cang, you're not a monster. You're granny's little darling. Remember, no matter what others think of you, no matter what they say about you, you'll always be granny's most obedient little darling ~ ~"
"Granny, I passed the test this time. I even put your favorite carnation in. You'll definitely get better! You'll definitely get better! I want to be with granny forever! "
"Little Cang, granny has to leave. I'm sorry that I won't be able to see you get married and have children. Don't cry. A real man can't cry! Granny is old. This is life and death. No one can escape it. So don't be sad, little darling ~ "
Ye Cang stopped reminiscing and took a deep breath. His eyes were filled with determination as he slowly said, "Granny, I'll definitely help you find your grandson … I'll definitely …"
"Bro …" Chang Zhengxiong looked at Ye Cang's face and remembered the picture of him and an old lady. "Mm, leave it to us!"
Lin Le couldn't help but nod.
"I need some arrows …" Ye Cang took out some coins. Rica refused. "Take whatever you need. I just want to see Jesse as soon as possible …"
Ye Cang took a leather quiver with 30 arrows and loaded it onto his back. He took several torches and matches, then hurriedly brought the two of them out of the general store. He looked back at the old lady, Rica, who had been standing at the door for a long time, and headed towards the forest in the north.
Night was the playground of wild beasts. Most players didn't dare to go too deep into the forest. The gains wouldn't make up for the losses, let alone the fact that they were only level 3-4. The farm was still very lively. There was an endless stream of people exploring the edges. The forest in the north that Ye Cang's group headed towards was abnormally quiet.
Lighting torches, the three of them shuttled through the forest.
"Bro, do you think the old tree that the old lady mentioned really exists?" Chang Zhengxiong looked around vigilantly.
"I don't know, but there were some child's footprints when we entered the forest. It should be in this direction. Our mission is to find Jesse and bring him back to that old granny. Everything else can wait …" Ye Cang used the light of the torches to carefully observe their surroundings.
"Little White, the surroundings feel strange. It's a bit scary …" Lin Le, who was walking at the back, said weakly.
"Wait, there's movement!" Zhang ZhengXiong felt something approaching.
The three of them slowly stopped. A few pairs of eyes flickering with blood red light gradually approached. Three black furred wolves appeared before their eyes. They were larger than normal wolves by more than half. They let out a low growl. Ye Cang slowly drew his longsword. "Lil 'Xiong, you distract two of them. Lele and I will focus on the one on the left. Then we'll support you!"
"I got it, bro …" Chang Zhengxiong nodded without hesitation.
"Lele! Go!! " Ye Cang lowered her body and rushed towards the wolf on the left. Lin Le followed behind, dragging his axe behind him. Chang Zhengxiong directly attacked, blocking the two that pounced at him. He single-handedly blocked one with his axe and dodged the other's attack. Instead of retreating, he threw a heavy punch at the wolf's waist. Over 50% additional damage appeared. The wolf howled and fell to the ground. Chang Zhengxiong shouted, "Bro, it's the waist!"
On the other side, Ye Cang used a low slide to dodge the wolf's attack. Suddenly, she turned and slashed at its waist. Lin Le had also received Chang Zhengxiong's message. He directly swept at the wolf in midair, causing it to fall to the ground. Ye Cang didn't give up. She strode over and fiercely stabbed her sword into the wolf's head. She shouted, "Lele! Go help Lil 'Xiong!! "The dying wolf's sharp claws slashed at Ye Cang's chest, causing blood to spurt out.
Chang Zhengxiong, who was somewhat outnumbered, received two claw attacks and lost almost half of his health. The chill on his back made his heart sink. He was already too busy to deal with the wolf in front of him.
"Awoo!" With a wail, Chang Zhengxiong slightly tilted his head. From the light of the torch on the ground, he saw Lele's axe cut through the wolf's waist. He let out a sigh of relief.
