Zhuang Wuming walked as if nothing had happened, and the fifteen-year-old boy in the distance had already followed him.
There was alertness in his eyes, "What a good thing."
"This is an invisibility cloak, a magical item."
"If you get it, it will be a great harvest."
"But be careful, this person is definitely very powerful."
"First check where he lives. Then steal him out in the middle of the night."
The young man was so excited that he followed Zhuang Wuming around for a long time, but he didn't see Zhuang Wuming showing any intention of finding a place to live.
Gradually, he felt a little anxious.
At night, the crowds on the street gradually became sparse. Zhuang Wuming looked at the sky and began to think about how he should solve the accommodation problem.
At this time, on the street not far from him, the young man was already looking anxious, "Why haven't you found a place to stay?"
"How can I steal if you don't stay here?"
The anxious young man had a look of helplessness on his face, and then he was suddenly startled.
He saw Zhuang Wuming walking in his direction.
The young man was startled. He looked around and saw a familiar alley. He quickly hid in it and hid behind a raised low wall.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer. The young man was not worried that Zhuang Wuming would find him. His tracking skills were absolutely superb.
When Zhuang Wuming's footsteps came to the entrance of this alley and stopped, the young man suddenly felt a thump in his heart.
"Did he find me? No way."
"No, why are there footsteps? There are obviously none."
A gust of cold air rushed to the top of his head, and the young man turned around and rushed deeper into the alley.
He was familiar with the border cities and thought he could escape capture.
A gust of wind flashed, and a figure stood in front of him.
Putting his palm on his shoulder, the young man's body sank and he sat on the ground, looking at Zhuang Wuming with a horrified expression.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me."
Seeing the fear in the young man's eyes, Zhuang Wuming said calmly, "Don't worry, I don't want to kill you, I just want to ask you something."
The young man looked at Zhuang Wuming with anxiety and fear in his eyes.
He didn't know whether Zhuang Wuming was telling the truth or lies.
"What's your name?" Zhuang Wuming spoke first.
"My name is Allen," a trace of fear flashed in the boy's eyes.
"Your bloodline is very special. You can actually see through the effect of my invisibility cloak."
"This is my ability to eat. Without this ability, I would have starved to death."
It seems that the young man is very proud of his bloodline.
"Really, you don't have to worry, I'm looking for you to ask you to do me a favor."
"If you do well, I will have something good for you."
When the young man heard this, there was a trace of doubt on his face, but more importantly, he was afraid.
Many times he couldn't believe what these big shots said.
He lives at the bottom of the city, has seen too much of the dark world, and has too many so-called big shots who use them when needed.
Throw them away like garbage when they are no longer needed.
Looking at Zhuang Wuming carefully, young Allen asked, "What do you want me to do, sir?"
"My abilities are low and I can actually do very little."
Zhuang Wuming smiled slightly, "Don't worry, the help I ask you must be within your ability."
"First of all, I don't want others to find me, so I put on this invisibility cloak."
"Second, I hope to find a safe place to hide in this border city for a while."
"You should have no shortage of places to hide."
"As a local snake, there should be no one who is more familiar with this city than you."
When the young Allen heard this, he was slightly relieved. If this was the case, it would be easy to handle.
"Sir, I can do this."
"Okay, then lead the way."
Young Allen nodded, "Sir, please come with me."
After saying that, he walked deeper into the alley, and Zhuang Wuming followed him and disappeared into the dark alley.
The night is filled with darkness, but there are many stars in the starry sky and the universe, and countless starlight shines down, covering the earth.
Although the whole world is dark, it is filled with boundless silver.
The world is silvery, like a mysterious and beautiful quiet country.
Soon Zhuang Wuming and Allen came to a large river that ran through this border city.
This river is more than ten meters wide and flows from the swamp forest.
Dams were built on both sides of the river to consolidate the foundation of the entire river embankment.
Zhuang Wuming and Allen walked closer to the city wall and came to an alley.
Allen looked around and came to the corner of the alley. The roads here were paved with stone slabs.
He groped on the ground for a while and slowly lifted a stone slab.
After opening the slate, Allen looked at Zhuang Wuming and said, "Sir, come with me, this is my secret room."
Under the stone slab was a hole with a ladder leading all the way down. Allen went down first, followed by Zhuang Wuming.
What you see is a dark passage.
Sizzling
With a soft sound, a torch appeared in the cave.
After Allen lit the torch, he stuck it aside.
He climbed up the ladder again, moved the stone slab above to cover the entrance, then quickly came to Zhuang Wuming, picked up the torch and started to lead the way.
This was obviously a sewer. The smell was not very good, but there was no water flowing on the ground. It looked like an abandoned sewer. Zhuang Wuming frowned.
They only walked a dozen meters before reaching the end of the passage.
Allen stood at the end and pushed hard on a wall, revealing a room.
Then he and Zhuang Wuming quickly walked in.
Under the lighting of the torch, Zhuang Wuming was surprised to see that this place was actually a cave of about ten square meters.
There is a bed covered with thick quilts, a table, and a sofa in front of the table, covered with animal skins.
There is a teapot on the table, a wooden box and a water tank in the corner. I don't know what is inside.
Sticking the torch in the corner, young Allen looked at Zhuang Wuming in awe and said, "Sir, this is my home. No one knows this place except me."
Zhuang Wuming nodded when he heard this and looked around. He felt that the air here was circulating very quickly. A breeze blew in from one wall and disappeared on another wall.
"How is the ventilation here?"
Young Allen said, "I used special tools to dig this and created ventilation holes on both sides of the wall."
"The ground is very close to the ground, so it is very easy to create a vent. Just pay attention to the location and protect the indoor fire from leaking out."
Zhuang Wuming nodded when he heard this, "This place is very nice. You can sleep on the sofa. This bed is mine."
As he spoke, he took out a few gold coins from his arms, squeezed them hard, and turned them into a ball of gold nuggets.
"This is considered as reward, as accommodation fee, and then I can get some food."
He threw it to the young Allen, and he took the gold with a look of surprise on his face. (To be continued)
