There was a corpse leaning against the wall outside the alley. There were fifteen corpses in the alley. There were no obvious signs of fighting. They all died because their necks were cut by a sharp weapon.
Compared to Master Zerath lying outside, the corpses inside the alley were worth pondering.
The third prince paced back and forth in the alley twice, then looked at the dead end deep in the alley with a hint of fear in his eyes.
Being able to cut the necks of fifteen people at the same time in such a narrow alley and achieve a fatal blow, this was something that even the strongest swordsman in the three major countries could not do.
"Is it …"
The third prince slowly raised his head and looked at the light above the alley.
He was the only one in the alley, and no one could hear his whisper.
Outside the alley, more and more onlookers were attracted by the news of Master Zerath's death, but the people who came later could only see the corpse lying under the wall covered by a white cloth.
Amidst the crowd, Milia, who was wearing a hooded robe, quietly left. She knew why the young man had deliberately smashed the clothesline pole on the roof. She was glad that she had escaped a disaster and did not intend to continue staying in this place.
You know, she was also one of the people who made money in Vulture Street, and Master Zerath was not a nobody. If Elba's army insisted on tracking her down, it would be impossible for them to find her.
Even if it turned out that she had nothing to do with Zerath, once she was caught, with the style of Elba's third prince, whether she did it or not, she would definitely be tortured.
At this point, Miriya began to prepare to leave.
.....
Sarge's house, the room on the third floor.
There were only two things in the wooden box. Law picked up the yellowed book, walked to the small round window, and browsed the contents of the diary under the sunlight.
This was the diary left by Sa Ling, Sarge's sister. The book was slightly thick, and the specific year was not written, but judging from the yellowed book, it was at least a few decades old.
The first page made Law want to continue reading. The content of the first page was as follows.
July 18, Yang.
I want to go to the forbidden area of the Kentia Desert!
There was only one short sentence, but he didn't know how old Sa Ling was when she started writing this sentence.
July 19, Yang.
Because of this, I was beaten by my brother.
I couldn't accept it. Wasn't it just three years earlier than me?
Hmph, he's leaving!
July 20th, Yang.
From today onwards, I have to save money seriously!
Even if he couldn't eat the bug pot from the crippled uncle's house, he wouldn't hesitate!
However, eating it once a month shouldn't affect his plan to save money. The insect pot was really too delicious!
Luo looked at the tears on this page, which should be left by Brother Sa.
July 21st, Sun.
Today, Druid told me that he wanted to explore the forbidden zone. I was surprised and asked him why.
He said, "There are a lot of dead people there, so there must be a lot of treasures."
I don't know if this counts as a treasure hunt, but I don't like it.
July 22nd, Sun.
Damn it.
Law turned to this page and stopped. There was only one word in the content, and the handwriting was unusually forceful. He didn't know what had happened.
He flipped to the next page and continued reading. Most of it was about daily trifles. Occasionally, it would mention Vulture Street and antiques. In the beginning, it would only record a page every few days or even a dozen days.
It was not until June 15th of the following year that the plan to go to the Forbidden Zone was officially put forward.
June 15th, Sun.
Today, I finally got the map. I must not let my brother find out. Otherwise, all my efforts will be in vain!
Moreover, I have to prepare a lot of things to go to the Forbidden Zone, but the money I saved is not enough.
I've decided that from today onwards, the plan of saving money will be changed to the plan of making money!
....
From this day onwards, the diary content became Sa Ling's experience of going to Vulture Street from day to night. At first, she was cheated badly, but in the end, she finally made a small profit. It took a whole two years.
This experience not only allowed Sa Ling to master the knack of making money, but through contact with various people, her communication skills also improved, not to mention the increased knowledge from years of exposure to antiques.
Sa Ling seemed to have never regarded herself as a woman. She wanted to do everything better than men, including going to the Forbidden Zone of the Desert. At that time, she was the only woman who wanted to go to the Forbidden Zone of the Desert.
As time passed, Sa Ling became more and more popular in Vulture Street and gradually made a name for herself. Many people deliberately brought antiques to her, so her income was higher and higher, leaving Brother Sa behind.
The house where Law lived was also bought by Sa Ling.
Through collecting appraisal fees and picking up scraps, Sa Ling earned more and more money and was getting closer and closer to the goal she set, but new problems also appeared.
Sa Ling wanted to go to the Forbidden Zone of the Desert. She could make a plan for it and then patiently prepare.
She had spent nearly four years preparing everything. The only thing she lacked was the ability to protect herself, which could also be said to be strength.
If her strength was not enough, not to mention going to the Forbidden Zone of the Desert, she would be killed by the desert bandits halfway.
Therefore, Sa Ling did not impulsively choose to go when she was ready. It was worth mentioning that from the beginning, when she was beaten by Brother Sa, Sa Ling insisted on exercising every day.
Another year passed, and Lin Nie came …
Law finished reading a slightly thick diary, but there was not much important information about the Forbidden Zone of the Desert. On the last page of the diary, only a row of words was written.
"Brother, I'm going!"
The day before writing this page of the diary, Sa Ling defeated Brother Sa. At that time, they all learned telekinesis from Lin Nie and developed their own telekinesis.
Brother Sa wanted to stop Sa Ling, but his sister was not an ordinary person. He was beaten by Sa Ling. And this diary seemed to be specially left by Sa Ling for Brother Sa.
Law turned the diary and felt that Sa Ling was very interesting. He had an impulse to get to know her, but it could only be a thought.
Putting down the diary, he turned to pick up something like a pocket watch. It was very light, and the bronze metal shell was covered with fine scratches.
Opening the cover, to Law's surprise, it was a compass.
Law's mind moved slightly, absorbing the telekinesis on the compass, and then opened the other wooden boxes.
Unlike the wooden boxes containing the diary and the compass, the other two wooden boxes were full of things, all antiques.
Law picked up a few antiques, all of which were inferior fakes.
After checking for a while, Law found that the two boxes of antiques were all worthless fakes. They should have been bought by Sa Ling when she first entered Vulture Street. Even if her reputation had accumulated, she never thought about dealing with these antiques, but kept them as souvenirs.
Compared with Master Zerath, who he had met not long ago, it was a difference between heaven and earth.
A diary made Law understand what kind of person Sa Ling was, and he admired Sa Ling.
Law carefully put everything away, neatly placed them in the corner, and vacated the bed.
