Chapter 1, Him and Him in the Wasteland

The deep winter season is always lifeless, especially here, in the northern part of the Pamir Principality, in the small town of Huangshi.In a typical slum, people suffering from hunger and cold walk aimlessly on the dirt road in the town, but the town with a large number of people is filled with death-like silence.

What kind of people live in this desolate and barren place?Some of them are exiled sinners, some are the aborigines here, they are all pitiful and hateful people.

There is also a kind of people who will come here from time to time. Guys who are scavengers or adventurers will come to this desolate place to find something they want. In the eyes of the locals, this kind of people are waiting to be slaughtered Lamb, or the only hope.

This day is like this, two strange faces came to the town, one is a strong adult man, the other is a thin and small boy.They were noticed the second they came to town.Their appearance is really special. The adult man has silvery white hair, and his eyes will shine in the shadows, making people who are greedy for money think of newly minted silver coins. Judging from the man's aura It's hard to see that this is a powerful guy. There are indeed powerful guys who come to Huangshi Town, but they don't feel as dangerous as this man; there is also that boy with black hair, an angelic face, and a pair of beautiful light blue colored eyes.

The man held the young man's hand, and the height difference between the two grew longer and longer under the setting sun, and more and more residents gathered around them, looking greedily at the clothes and bulging money bags on their bodies.But neither of these two people cared, and no one dared to step forward to stop them.

If adventurers come to this town, they will definitely find someone, the "rich man" in the town - a guide who lives here.The old man lived in the most complete and solid stone house in the town, and he knew where these adventurers were going, and would take them, but for a price worth of money, especially in winter.

But who knows where they're going that's worth spending a cool winter's worth of money to go?Anyway, the old guide didn't know about it, nor had he seen his guests.

He knew that the two poor guys in front of him this time would never come back.But he didn't advise them, nor anyone, that he wouldn't do stupid things to ruin his own fortune.

"Okay, young people, where are you going?" The old guide saw them and took a sip of his wine, thinking that if the price offered was not enough to tempt him, he would give these two guys a good meal.

The white-haired man silently pointed in one direction, north.The deserted stone town is far enough north, but they still have to go further north...

The old guide nodded.To go further north, you need to climb over a big mountain in the northeast of Huangshi Town. That mountain is very difficult to walk, and strangers will lose their way if you are not careful, but it is very simple for the old guide, "It's like going to the toilet at home. Same, leave it to me." He said boldly, patting his chest.And put up a finger, ask the price.

"A silver coin, pure silver."

Now some lions have opened their mouths, and the cunning old guide is ready to talk to this man or boy about the relationship between the price and the season.

"Look, it's already deep winter, I can't even stay outside for a while..."

The old guide was attracted by a ray of silver light, it was a brand new silver coin, flying in front of him.

His sly and funny smile immediately turned into a welcome, he opened the big iron door behind him, made a welcoming gesture, and said, "Come in and rest for a night, guests."

The white-haired man nodded, agreeing, and led the boy inside.

From the beginning to the end, the strange pair didn't say a word. The boy wanted to speak a few times but stopped.

As soon as you enter this hut, you will be enveloped in warmth. The charcoal fire in the room is buzzing. There is a girl squatting beside the charcoal brazier. When a stranger comes in, she knows that her family has a business again. She stands up and picks up the kettle on the stove. He took two bowls and poured water for them.

"This is my daughter Jane, she will go with us tomorrow, I'm sorry, I can't leave my daughter here alone." The old guide closed the door and said with a smile.

The man nodded again, and pulled the boy to the chair to sit down.

"..." The old guide narrowed his eyes, as if he had discovered something, but he didn't say anything.

"Jane, go cook!" he yelled at his daughter, and went into the kitchen himself.

The girl was a little puzzled. Usually, she went to the kitchen alone to work, and then her father and the guests talked and bragged?Could it be that these two guests have any special circumstances?

In the kitchen, the old wizard did nothing but drink wine by the chair by the fire.Jane frowned, and silently added water into the pot to boil without saying anything.

"These two people are not simple, at least they are not ordinary adventurers." The old guide said suddenly, "Go and talk to them tomorrow, maybe we can build a relationship."

The girl did not answer. The reason why his father took her was not because she would be dangerous if she was alone at home. People in the town would not come to harm the guide's daughter. The reason why he took her was because she was a girl and he wanted to use her to go With the relationship of a powerful adventurer, behind a powerful adventurer may be a member of a certain family. The cunning guide cannot miss any chance to climb up. Although he has never succeeded, he is still persisting.

"By the way, pay attention, that kid's blue eyes may be scary, don't tell the truth tomorrow." The old guide reminded again, this is to give his guests a sense of security, so that they can't feel that he is a guide. The possibility of murder and robbery will affect his business.

"How strange, how did a little blind man come back here?" the old guide muttered in a low voice.

Listening to her father's muttering, Zhen dared not say anything, all she could do was to be obedient.

"It's time for dinner, Dad."

Night fell quietly, and on the dirt streets, wandering residents went back to their homes to keep warm alone.These poor people got nothing today, and nothing tomorrow.

Inside the stone house, it was also surprisingly quiet. No matter what the old guide said, the man who gave him a silver coin responded silently, and the old guide gradually lost interest in talking.

"Over the mountain, is it?" Just as the old guide was about to get up to leave, he heard a voice, quiet but full of life, no doubt it was the boy's voice.

The old guide's anger seemed to be much less. He snorted with a smile and said, "It's still a mountain."
