Chapter 208 The Mercenary's Story

Bear paws are not precious, so naturally there won't be a situation where customers fight over them and the stall owner benefits.

Seeing that Qinghuan chose the bear paw, the woman gave up simply, stood up and left, taking a few steps and disappearing into the crowd.

Qinghuan felt a little regretful. He paid the money, put the bear paw into Bilan, and walked around a few more times, but didn't find anything that interested him.

Looking at the sky, Qinghuan decided to stay here for a few days. He was just wandering around without any purpose anyway.

After finding an inn and booking a room, Qing Huan followed his instinct and found a restaurant along the way.

After sniffing, Qing Huan walked straight to the counter and asked, "What kind of wine aroma is this? It smells good!"

The town was small, so any news could spread quickly, so the shop owner was particularly respectful and proud, saying, "Master Alchemist, this wine is brewed by me. It's not special, but it's strong enough!"

Qing Huan immediately said, "Give me a small jar and some of your best dishes."

The shop owner smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, Master Alchemist. I will prepare it for you right away!"

There were quite a few people in the store, most of them were mercenaries, gathered in twos and threes, talking in low voices. Occasionally someone would look at Qinghuan with respect and envy in their eyes.

Qinghuan chose a seat and sat down. He glanced around and was stunned for a moment.

The woman was sitting by the window. Her expression could not be seen clearly under the mask, but she gave people a comfortable and lazy feeling.

In such a crowded environment, she can still maintain her leisure, and is not affected by the surrounding environment at all.

It feels like seeing a touch of fresh green in the desert, indescribably comfortable and alternative.

The dishes she ordered had not come yet. There was only a cup of tea on the table, with wisps of hot steam rising from it from time to time. It had basically cooled down, but from her expression she didn't seem to be in a hurry to eat. It was as if she was just sitting there enjoying herself.

Being able to adapt to any circumstances is difficult for ordinary people to achieve unless they have reached a transcendent state of mind.

It was precisely this indifference that made the diners and mercenaries around her only dare to glance at her secretly, but not dare to approach her to chat... and there were no fools who would risk their lives for the sake of beauty.

They are not idiots. A woman like this is obviously not easy to mess with.

Do you want to go say hello?

Qinghuan hesitated for a moment, then gave up. It would be bad if she disturbed that leisurely mood.

Even though the woman wasn't looking over here, Qinghuan still poured a cup of tea and raised it in the woman's direction.

……

Although they had only been together for a short time, Qinghuan did not deny that he felt very comfortable with this woman.

He also enjoyed that feeling... There is no need for people to know too much about each other.

He only needed to know that the woman was a good griller and had a good alcohol tolerance. As for her identity, background, strength, and whether she could speak, these were not important.

After the ordered dishes were served, Qinghuan couldn't wait to taste them. What could she say?

Not too spectacular...but edible.

The wine was pretty good, although not as good as the one from Shanghai Bodong, but it was already better than the one Qinghuan bought along the way.

When the taste of food is not enough to impress people, its only function is to satisfy hunger.

Qinghuan wasn't hungry, so he only ate a few bites and then stopped, sipping his wine while listening to the people around him talking.

Perhaps in order to show off in front of the beauty, or trying to attract the interest of the alchemist, the diners and mercenaries around were talking a lot.

Talk about what you have seen, what you have experienced, Warcraft, and interesting things...

Qing Huan was listening with great interest, but suddenly his expression changed slightly. At a table three or four tables away from him, three mercenaries were discussing a strange story.

The story goes that a group of mercenaries had finally defeated the target monster during a mission and were about to deal with the corpse when suddenly the sky above them darkened.
When they looked up, the group of mercenaries were stunned. A lion head that occupied the entire sky was looking down at them. Its two eyes were like two suns hanging in the sky.

The lion was over a thousand meters tall, and a hundred people couldn't wrap their arms around just one of its legs. But it just snorted, and the mercenaries were dizzy from the loud noise and couldn't stand.

How could the mercenaries dare to be an enemy of such a terrifying monster?
After coming to his senses, he fled back in panic. Strangely, the lion did not chase him.

The mission naturally failed, but when the mercenaries described what they had seen, they were laughed at by everyone... because the forest they went to was very small, and there were very few trees over a hundred meters tall.

How could a thousand-meter-tall lion hide in a forest like this without being discovered?
Everyone said that this team of mercenaries made up this story as an excuse because they were unable to complete the mission... and because of this incident, the credibility of this mercenary team collapsed, and they were unable to sustain themselves and were disbanded.

After hearing this story, Qinghuan stood up with interest. He glanced at the woman by the window and saw that she was also about to stand up. However, after seeing Qinghuan stand up, she sat down again.

It seems that women are also interested in this story.

Qing Huan carried the wine jar and went straight to the table, smiling and said, "It's a good story, can you tell me in detail?"

The people at that table were somewhat flattered, and they quickly made room for them, saying, "Of course, of course... Master Alchemist, please take a seat!"

Others cast envious glances.

……

After finding out the information he needed, Qing Huan left two first-grade medicinal pills and got a few jars of wine from the counter and threw them into Bi Lan.

Then he returned to the inn leisurely, as if he had just listened to a story.

Early the next morning, before daybreak, Qinghuan got up and checked out of the hotel. He didn't even bother to buy supplies and left the town directly.

The forest the mercenaries were talking about was on the edge of the Warcraft Mountains.

The Warcraft Mountains are a mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles, and the forest is a small section of the forest that extends from the mountain range and is close to human towns.

The story happened three months ago. If Qinghuan had managed to arrive in time and had good luck, the monster might not have left the forest and gone deep into the Monster Mountain Range.

Unfortunately, at the entrance of the town, Qinghuan saw the woman again.

He was wearing a red dress and a mask, and he stood there quietly, looking towards Qinghuan.

Although no one spoke, Qinghuan could clearly feel the other party's dissatisfaction in those eyes that were like stars.

"cough!"

Qinghuan was also a little embarrassed. After all, they had eaten barbecue together, and it was really hard to justify his behavior of deliberately avoiding her.

But since he was knocked away, Qing Huan had no choice but to walk over and said, "You've thought of it, right? That monster is very special. The so-called thousand-meter monster should be the projection of its own soul onto the mercenary's mind.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, this monster can freely control the size of its body... We have to find this monster to know the details.

In short, this monster interests me very much!"

The woman didn't say anything, she just turned around and walked away, heading in the same direction as Qinghuan, which was the Warcraft Mountains.

Qing Huan hesitated for a moment, but finally followed the woman. He didn't know why, but subconsciously wanted to explain.

Unexpectedly, as the woman walked, she ended up in the sky.

Stepping into the void, she is Dou Zong!
Qing Huan looked at the woman who was moving away rapidly in the air, and smiled bitterly.

"Blue" expanded silently, and Qinghuan's figure also flew into the air, quickly chasing after it.
