"Um... I'm sorry, I was rude." Xiao Yao realized something was wrong as soon as he said the words. He directly asked a beautiful girl if she was blind... It was too offensive. If she had a bad temper, she might give her a slap. Fan came over.

"It's okay, there's nothing to be ashamed of." Xiao Lian waved her hand magnanimously, but the look she looked at Xiao Yao seemed to have the meaning of "sincere and seductive", "We are almost the same kind of people. , I used to... couldn't see anything."

"But your eyes are very beautiful now." Xiao Yao saw the girl's eyes reflecting the sunset, and it seemed hard to imagine that these eyes were without sparkle.

Xiao Lian smiled slightly and pointed to her eyes: "Thank you for the compliment, but my eyes were not like this when I was born... Can you believe it? When I was born - I only had the whites of my eyes and no pupils."

Xiao Yao was silent for a moment, and he quickly understood the meaning of Xiao Lian's words - he was born with only the whites of his eyes, which meant that Xiao Lian definitely had a congenital genetic defect, and it was very possible that he could not even determine whether the lens and retina were intact. It’s certain. There is no possibility of curing Xiao Lian’s eyes when he was born. As for eyeball transplantation, not even the technology on earth can reach it, let alone the world of Koro a hundred years ago.

"If that's the case..." Xiao Yao hesitated for a moment and then spoke, "It should have been impossible to cure."

"Doctors can't save me, but wizards can." Xiao Lian said seriously. The moment the word "wizard" was spoken, the last ray of sunset disappeared from the distant mountains, and night fell completely.

This...should be a coincidence, right?

"Wizard?" Xiao Yao frowned. This word was undoubtedly the first word related to extraordinary power since he came into contact with this strange city.

…

"I thought you took advantage of Elizabeth and Luo Mengyun's absence to seize the opportunity to deal with this little girl! I was ready to snitch." Dong Bin said jokingly.

Xiao Yao's face turned dark: "Can we talk about business first? When will I do such a scumbag thing?"

Xiao Yao didn't stay with Xiao Lian for too long. He sent Xiao Lian home before it got completely dark. He returned to the hotel where the group lived as quickly as possible, and then told everyone what he had found out.

"Okay, okay, let's get down to business, get down to business." Dong Bin said seriously, "I think the so-called 'wizard' must be a key figure."

"In this weird city where everyone pretends to be normal, that is the only supernatural force we know about so far." Qi Rui agreed, "We need to meet him."

"It's too late, Xiao Lian didn't tell me in detail, but the wizard is quite capable of restoring sight to a girl who was blind due to congenital defects. Xiao Lian said that he would find an opportunity to take me to see him in a day or two. Wizard, that girl still stubbornly thinks that there is something wrong with my eyes that needs help from a wizard..." Mentioning this misunderstanding, Xiao Yao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Can't we go now?" Ye Ruoxue, who had always maintained a cold face, suddenly asked.

"Well... Xiao Lian said that the wizard's whereabouts are unpredictable. He only appears in a fixed place every seven days, and the next time the wizard appears is the day after tomorrow. However, I will go to that place in advance to take a look." Xiao Yao He patted his chest and said, "The plan remains unchanged. I will investigate this matter clearly."

Ye Ruoxue nodded, she seemed a little tired: "Okay, everyone, let's go to bed early. Let's complete our respective tasks as soon as possible tomorrow."

…

The second day in Wudu came quickly. For the aborigines of Wudu, it was an ordinary time like the many days before.

The four outsiders also started their own investigations.

Ye Ruoxue went alone to the place where they met Xiao Lian, which was the hillside filled with thin mist. There they took one step and left the terrifying black mist and entered directly.

This weird Wudu.

The slope of the hillside is very gentle, with knee-high grassland at the foot of the hill, and a few small pine trees growing here and there on the top of the hill. Obviously, the soil here is not suitable for the growth of forests.

Ye Ruoxue bent down and pinched off a few grass leaves with her hands, and her fingernails touched the tender green juice. It was cool, sticky, and very real to the touch. The soil was very moist, as if it had just rained a few days ago, and some plants were still growing in some places.

Some small mushrooms - these mushrooms were probably the reason why Xiao Lian came here that day.

Slowly walking up the mountain as if taking a walk, Ye Ruoxue squinted her eyes, her hair swaying in the wind. Compared with vision, hearing and touch, Ye Ruoxue relied more on her black hair. Highly sensitive detection through her black hair often allowed her to obtain

Know a lot of things hidden under the surface.

The breeze brought the breath of spring. This time, Ye Ruoxue still didn't notice anything strange. Everything was so "real".

Ye Ruoxue sat on the old root of a pine tree, dragging her cheeks and thinking. Although from the outside, this hillside is no different from any ordinary hillside, but... there must be loopholes, there must be loopholes.

Something I didn't notice...

But what could it be?

Ye Ruoxue thought for a while, and then she realized something. The countless black hair behind her suddenly penetrated deeply into the ground - if she couldn't find any loopholes on the surface... then what about the underground?

Ten meters...fifty meters...one hundred meters...

Countless black hairs spread unhindered underground like earthworms. The black hairs have the ability to perceive the texture of the soil more sensitively than any detector, the crawling of small insects in the soil, the flow of air and underground water...

…Everything is within Ye Ruoxue’s range of perception.

Below a hundred meters, there is still nothing unusual.

But the moment Ye Ruoxue tried to push the black hair deeper, the obstacles caused by the soil and rocks disappeared instantly. Then the next moment, the spreading black hair tips were all out of control, making further perception impossible.

It was as if there was some power that swallowed up the part of the black hair that spread out.

Interesting, the corners of Ye Ruoxue's mouth raised slightly, the boundary, she had found the boundary of this hypocritical city.

…

"Come on! Cheers!" In the tavern, Dong Bin cheerfully raised his glass.

"Brother Dong is so refreshing! We love making friends like you!" The boss of the Wudu caravan happily toasted to Dong Bin.

Yes, Dong Bin's affinity is not that strong. In just half a day, he successfully got along with the people in the caravan with the help of alcohol and the help of alcohol.

The team boss is just about to bow to him.

"Hahahahaha, Brother Zhao is also a cheerful person! We will all be friends from now on. If Brother Zhao wants to open a bigger and more prosperous business, I can introduce you to routes and acquaintances. Look at Jiu'an and Jiang Luo.

How about this place?" Dong Bin raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. His ability to drink was not bad, and coupled with his extraordinary physique, he was quite confident that he could drink down the entire caravan single-handedly.

After all, you can only speak the truth after drinking.

Expand business, make transactions bigger, and connect more good markets - no normal businessman will refuse this temptation. Dong Bin wants to see if the boss of this caravan will fall under this temptation.

There is something wrong with this place.

"Okay, okay... burp!" the caravan leader drunkenly agreed, "Then I really have to thank Brother Dong... It's such a hit-or-miss relationship, let's have another drink!"

Dong Bin suddenly regretted giving this guy so much wine. If this guy got drunk like this, he would be in trouble if he wanted to ask questions... So he calmly poured the next bucket of wine into the wine.

Use ordinary water.

"Bah... this wine is so weak... hiccup..."

Sure enough this

The drunkard had something wrong after drinking, but he was so drunk that he probably didn't have the heart to find fault. Dong Bin secretly praised his actions, and then continued to pretend not to care: "Brother Zhao, are you sure?

?Those two cities are far away from here. Although it will definitely be very profitable, will this trip take too much time..."

"Bah! What's this distance?" The caravan boss patted his chest a little excitedly, "I... hiccup... I've even been to the seaside, but I can't open the market if I don't know anyone on the road there.

...Hiccup, brothers, we are going to the beach in two days. Have you been to the beach...Hiccup, let me tell you, the waves rolling over are spectacular! If you are so inclined, you can follow us

Let’s go on a trip with the caravan…”

"Good idea, thank you Brother Zhao!" Dong Bin raised his cup to cover his somewhat disappointed expression. Sure enough, after testing so many times yesterday and today, all the caravans seemed not to resist going out, and according to their

It's like he often leaves the dock and goes out to do business.

This would be a bit troublesome.

Then there are two possibilities. One is that the mastermind behind the creation of this hypocritical city has some mature methods that can perfectly handle the special situation of going out of the city; the other is... I and my group were wrong from the beginning.

This...is a real world.

Dong Bin smiled bitterly. He instinctively felt that the situation was really not good.

…

The climate in Wudu is very mild. It is not too cold in winter and not too hot in summer. As spring is the most suitable climate in all seasons of the year, the warm time in the afternoon makes people feel comfortable and at ease from the bottom of their hearts.

The houses in Wudu are still mainly old square-meter buildings with a maximum of two or three floors. Since urban planning has not yet been put on the agenda, the streets and alleys are full of cobwebs. If you are not familiar with them, it is very likely that you will accidentally fall into them.

Lost on a similar street corner.

At this time, the elderly who are always basking in the sun on the street corner are often needed to guide the way, and most of the kind grandparents will be happy to point the way for the younger generations. And if there happens to be no one at that street corner, then

I can only choose a random direction and walk blindly.

This was the situation Qi Rui was facing. He was very embarrassed... He was completely lost on a street where no old man could ask for directions.

He originally planned to walk around the city alone, reading the thoughts of passers-by if he had the chance, and maybe he could find some valuable clues. As a result, the clues didn't find anything, and he was involved in it.

"It seems... I can only choose one path." Qi Rui murmured to himself, looking at the streets extending in all directions, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.

"Fortunately, I'm not helpless at all." Perhaps it's because the time when Qirui was blocked by Dengying Lushan was a hundred years ago - in other words, he originally lived more than a hundred years ago.

People - for this reason, he is somewhat inexplicably familiar with the layout of this city.

"Then let's guess a route." Qi Rui grasped that familiar feeling, casually found a road, and walked on - he successfully found the direction and the original road.

It's just...it seems a little too smooth.

Qi Rui frowned, hesitated for a moment, then randomly chose a direction and walked for a while, and then repeated similar operations several times.

Every time, he was able to find his way back by relying solely on that inexplicable sense of familiarity, and he didn't even need to cooperate with his extraordinary abilities to do it.

Qi Rui clenched his fists subconsciously. This...cannot be explained simply by the fact that he was familiar with the world a hundred years ago, because he was so familiar with it that he could find the way even with his eyes closed.

It's almost like... I have wandered here countless times.
