"By the way, there's something I want to ask you."

On the way back, Li Shanren suddenly thought of something, lowered his head and asked the little guide:

"I saw many extraordinary beings sitting in the rest area in the hall before, holding a yellow square piece of paper filled with words in their hands. What is that?"

"Are you talking about the Kingdom's Southern Monthly?" After thinking for a moment, the little guide gestured with his hands and said, "It records major events that happen in the South every month. I heard that the Kingdom's intelligence station issues one every month. .”

"Monthly? Newspaper?" Li Shanren was a little surprised. When he was in Farm City, he had never seen anyone publishing such a thing.

The city on the edge of the kingdom was so remote that even newspapers couldn't be sent there.

"If you want, I can buy one for you." The little guide raised his head and said proactively.

Li Shanren smiled and said, "How much does a monthly report cost?"

"Hmm...probably..." the little guide held up three fingers, but after seeing Li Shanren's gentle smile, he slowly put down two more, "One copper ruso is enough. .”

"Then go and buy one for me. I can walk back to the hotel by myself."

"I'll be back soon!"

Li Shanren gave the little guide five copper rupees, and then watched the little figure walk away happily in the lane.

A few minutes later, Li Shanren returned to the hotel.

The boss who was sitting on the chair frowned slightly when he saw that Li Shanren was the only one coming back, but didn't say anything.

"I asked him to help me buy something." Li Shanren took the initiative to explain, and then walked towards the nearby stairs.

Returning to the door of his room, Li Shanren unlocked the door with the key and pushed the door open.

"You are finally back."

As soon as he entered the door, the genderless voice flew into his ears.

Li Shanren was stunned for a moment and looked at Wei Luo, who was leaning against the window of the room with his arms crossed.

"Why are you here?"

"Um...uh..."

A whimpering sound came from below, and Li Shanren looked down.

The two tightly tied men were struggling on the ground like loaches, with a piece of rag stuffed in their mouths.

What's going on? !

"Sir Wei Luo, I think you should give me an explanation as to why you appeared in my room and who are these two people on the ground?" Li Shanren pinched his eyebrows, feeling that he might be in trouble again.

"When we entered the city before, these two people were following us." Wei Luo explained calmly, "Maybe there may be more than these two, but I only caught them."

"Is someone following you?"

Li Shanren frowned.

They had just arrived in this city for less than half a day, and now they were being targeted?

This is not a good sign.

"Well, on the way here, the two of them followed closely. I caught them as soon as I had the opportunity. I wanted to discuss it with you, but you didn't know when you went out, so I could only I'll wait for you to come back here." Wei Luo nodded and said.

"So, you still don't know why we are being followed?"

"Yes, are you going to torture me next?"

"We must know why we are being followed."

Li Shanren casually drew out the King's Army Straight Sword, squatted beside the two of them, and stared at them, trying to show as cold and ruthless a gaze as possible.

"I will take the things out of your mouths later and then ask you questions respectively. If the answer satisfies me, you can leave safely. If it does not satisfy me, you will stay here forever. Do you understand? "

Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, the two of them struggled harder, as if they were completely unaware of the threat in Li Shanren's words.

"It's useless. They are slaves and have been given a silence order. Under normal circumstances, you don't want to learn anything useful from them." Wei Luo reminded.

Li Shanren heard this and pulled off the collar of one of them.

Sure enough, a slave mark tattoo was burned deeply into the man's back.

"Ugh......"

Li Shanren held his forehead and put the sword back.

Although these two people were unwilling in their hearts, under the orders of their "master", they could not reveal any valid information.

Therefore, after being caught, they were considered "abandoned".

It is precisely because they know that they have almost no use value that they struggle desperately.

After all, the next fate is either permanent imprisonment or being killed.

As long as the orders are given in advance, slaves are the best soldiers to die.

"But maybe I can find out something."

Wei Luo stepped forward, stretched out his right hand, pointed his palm at the two people on the ground, and closed his eyes slightly.

"Axxi!"

Light green light emerged from the palm of his hand and shone on the foreheads of the two slaves.

The two people who were struggling desperately gradually calmed down, and their eyes gradually became empty, as if they had lost their subjective consciousness.

"The power of the witcher's sigil?"

Li Shanren looked at a magic mark consisting of only a few lines emerging from the palm of Wei Luo's hand, and silently guessed in his heart.

In order to facilitate Wei Luo's questioning, he pulled off the rags stuffed in their mouths in advance.

"What is the purpose of your tracking?" Wei Luo asked calmly.

After the transformation of the seal, the sound reached the ears of the two slaves, as deafening as a morning bell, grand and sacred.

"For...the bell."

The two said in unison, their eyes blurred.

"Bell?"

Li Shanren subconsciously touched the soul-summoning bell on his waist.

No, you're coming towards me?

"Who sent you here?" Wei Luo continued to ask solemnly.

"Yes......"

The two slaves suddenly had painful and ferocious expressions on their faces, and then they turned over and banged their heads against the brown-red wooden floor, making a loud "bang bang" sound.

"It seems that the answer to this question is much more important in their minds than the previous one, and they can't ask anything more."

After Wei Luo removed the seal, the two people continued to bump into each other. Judging from their uncomfortable looks, they seemed to have a splitting headache and wanted another kind of pain to suppress the current pain.

"What should we do with them now?" Li Shanren asked with a frown.

"There is no other way, we can't let them go back." Wei Luo slowly pulled out the steel sword from behind.

At this time, rapid footsteps sounded outside the door.

After a while, the boss knocked on the door vigorously, "What are you doing in there? Don't make it so loud, it will disturb other customers!"

"Okay, but don't let them die here, it will leave traces."

Li Shanren nodded and agreed to Wei Luo's proposal.

No matter what status these two people have following them, they can only be treated as enemies at this moment, and dead enemies are the best enemies.

Then Li Shanren loudly responded to the boss outside the door: "Sorry, we will handle it soon!"

Wei Luo silently put the half-drawn steel sword back into its scabbard, leaned over and picked up the two people on the ground, and then climbed out through the window in Li Shanren's room.

He probably entered the room from here before.

After a while, Wei Luo turned back from the window, with a faint smell of blood remaining on his body.

The boss outside the door also quietly left after hearing that there was no movement inside.

"It looks like we have to move to another place to live." Li Shanren scratched his hair in frustration, "Did you say before that there might be others following us?"

"Well, if there are others, it doesn't matter whether we change places or not." Wei Luo replied, "They must have sent people nearby to keep an eye on us. No matter where we go, they will follow us. I can’t necessarily catch everyone.”

Wei Luo has quite a lot of experience in this kind of thing.

As an elf hanging around in the human world, even though he is a male, he is not constantly targeted and coveted by interested people.

And male elves may be more in demand, because both men and women are in demand...

Therefore, Wei Luo will encounter similar things every now and then, so he is very aware of the methods of these people.

"So we are helpless?" Li Shanren lowered his head slightly and fell into thought.

"No, I mean, there's no need to leave, just let them come to you."

Wei Luo said in a deep tone.

"As many as come, they will be solved. If this continues, maybe they will quit in spite of the difficulties. If they persist in harassing us..."

Speaking of this, Wei Luo's voice became a little colder.

"Then sooner or later we can find out the person behind the scenes and kill him directly!"

If you can't solve the problem, solve the problem!

In these days of experience in the human world, this has always been Wei Luo's code of conduct.

This was taught to him by his human demon hunter teacher, and was regarded as a guideline by Wei Luo.
