Of course, it was impossible for Jia Zhengjin to sleep again, because there was not much time before dawn. And soon, those forgotten people quickly returned here under the leadership of the village chief.
Now everyone no longer needs to sleep. All the Forsaken people entered the village chief's house, making the place instantly crowded.
"Lord Keen, thank you for breaking the blockade in our village!" The village chief held his hand excitedly, "From now on, we no longer have to worry about being trapped here and can go anywhere freely."
"Thank you Lord Keen!!" The other villagers also expressed their thanks in unison.
"It's nothing!" Jia Zhengjin said, "I'm just passing by. The most important thing is for my own curiosity."
"No matter what, I still have to thank Mr. Keen!" the village chief said gratefully, "If it weren't for you, we would never have the chance to leave this small area."
"Then what are your plans next?" Jia Zhengjin asked, "Where are you going to move the village?"
"We have lived here for thousands of years, and we are reluctant to leave." The village chief looked back at the others, and then said seriously, "But from today on, you don't have to stay in the village every day. You can walk around when you are bored.
Go shopping, and then return to the village to rest. This kind of life should be much better and more meaningful than before! Of course, if we find a more suitable place to live, we do not rule out the possibility of moving, but I still won’t give up here.”
"Really?" Jia Zhengjin nodded, "As long as you are happy. However, your tribe is really similar to the undead, and they can only move at night. So it is better to avoid other tribes as much as possible and not get too close.
.Otherwise, it will be easy to be mistaken for the undead and be killed.”
"We know this well, thank you Lord Keen for your concern." The village chief nodded hurriedly, "By the way! This time, thanks to Lord Keen, we were able to free all the villagers. To express my gratitude, I have a small gift to give you.
Here it is, I hope you don’t dislike it.”
"Forget it as a gift, right? I'm not trying to repay you." Jia Zhengjin shook his head and said, "I just did it casually."
"Lord Keen did it casually, which is indeed a great kindness to us!" The village chief stood up, "We don't have any good things, but where we settled thousands of years ago, there are treasures left by our ancestors.
There are a lot of gold, silver and jewelry that we got unexpectedly. Our tribe basically has no need for those things. It may only be a small amount of money for Lord Keen, but after all, it represents the wishes of all of us. I hope
Don’t refuse!”
"Treasure? Gold and silver treasure?" After hearing these two words, Jia Zhengjin, who had no interest before, immediately sat up straight, "You're welcome, you're welcome... I really don't do it for reward, it's not necessary... By the way, I probably have
How much is it? Well~ I’m just curious!”
"Not many. If all were converted into gold coins, it would be about 10 million, right?" the village chief replied.
Ten million gold coins is a lot! For Jia Zhengjin, who never has enough gold coins, it is very important!
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and pretended to be calm: "You are too polite! This is just a piece of cake, it doesn't need to be so troublesome~"
"You want what you want!" the village chief said quickly, "Gold and silver treasures are meaningless to us, Lord Keen should just accept them! Although the amount is not much, it also expresses our gratitude..."
"But..." Jia Zhengjin wanted it very much in his heart, but he was still polite, "Isn't this good?"
"If Lord Keen doesn't want it, why not donate it to our Church of Light?" At this moment, the Pope suddenly interrupted, "This money can be used in our church to help countless people in need."
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhengjin immediately turned around, stared directly at the Pope with murderous eyes, and said word by word: "I didn't say no!"
"Uh~" The pope was stunned by his eyes, thinking that your previous statements were obviously refusals.
"I just said it's not good!" Jia Zhengjin glared at him and said.
What's the difference? The Pope was quite speechless. But he also knew that Jia Zhengjin couldn't give up this gold and silver treasure to him, so he withdrew again.
Seeing this scene, everyone else couldn't help laughing, even the Forsaken Village Chief and the villagers behind him were happy.
Jia Zhengjin was a little embarrassed, but he still pretended not to say anything and coughed lightly: "Since it's hard to refuse such kindness, I'll accept it reluctantly! After all, it's your kindness, so I can't refuse it."
"Thank you, Mr. Keen!" The village chief also cooperated. "Then I will go find the map first, and then mark the location. It is almost dawn, and we will fall asleep soon, so we must hurry up."
"Okay, hurry up!" Jia Zhengjin waved his hand and asked them to get the map immediately.
When the Forgotten One left the room to look for the map, he heard bursts of laughter from behind. Jia Zhengjin turned around suddenly and saw that everyone was trying hard not to laugh, probably because they were amused by what he had just done.
What's wrong with liking money? Everything requires money, especially my system that consumes more gold coins. Can you understand how I feel about trying to earn money to become stronger?
At this time, Connie directly changed the subject and pointed to his shoulder: "Speaking of Keen, you didn't seem to bring such a little person with you when you went out, right? Is this your pet?"
"You just noticed it now?" Jia Zhengjin rolled his eyes, "What kind of observation skills?"
"Everyone should have discovered it when we came back," Connie said with a smile, "It's just that you have too many weird things, so if a little pet suddenly appears, we won't be surprised."
"That's what I'm saying..." Seeing that everyone else nodded in agreement with Connie's statement, Jia Zhengjin no longer dwelled on it, "He is not a pet, but a magical creature I created. Seamus, say hello to everyone.
"
"Hello, my name is Seamus!" Seamus immediately stood up on Jia Zhengjin's shoulders and saluted everyone politely, "I am a magical creature created by the master, although it is just an incorporeal existence.
, but he has a very smart mind! I hope I can be friends with you all.”
"Hello Seamus!!" It seems that the strong men present are not very interested in him. They have probably seen magical creatures, so they are not that surprised?
After greeting each other, Connie looked at Jia Zhengjin and asked: "By the way! What did you encounter when you went to the Deepest Place? What is the situation below? How did you help the Forgotten solve their problems?"
Before Jia Zhengjin came back, he actually thought about it a lot. In the end, he would never tell them the truth, otherwise the affairs of the Demon Altar and Demon Lord Singer, as well as the affairs of Seamus's former master, would be exposed.
So I responded directly with the answer I had thought of: "There is actually only a strange magic circle in the deepest place, and I don't know what it is used for. The magic circle was originally damaged, and it was probably something left over thousands or tens of thousands of years ago. I
After destroying the magic circle, the problem of the forgotten people will disappear! It is this magic circle that imprisons them."
"You've been there for so long, does it seem like this deep place is really deep?" Connie asked doubtfully.
