Cheng Yu and the other two followed the dark-skinned young man named Rexy out of the city.

On the way, Cheng Yu bought Rexy some dry and hard bread as a reward for leading the way.

While chewing the bread, Rexy saw Cheng Yu wearing a black magic cloak with a first-level magician badge on his chest, and asked with a smile, "Boss, are you a first-level magician?"

"I just took the first-level magician test yesterday and passed with 81 points."

"Boss is awesome."

Rexy flattered, "There is a relatively large cemetery in the east of Snow City. I'll take you to see it."

"Let's go."

The few people left the city from the east gate of Snow City and walked east along the wide avenue.

After walking about two or three miles, a quiet and solemn cemetery appeared in front of them, with a large area.

The cemetery was symbolically surrounded by a half-meter-high wooden fence, and there were tall tombstones inside.

Magicians who study necromancy like cemeteries the most.

Some necromancers come to the cemetery to steal corpses and refine them into puppets for combat.

Some necromancers simply like the atmosphere of the cemetery.

Standing at the entrance of the cemetery, Cheng Yu took out the "Encyclopedia of Plants and Animals on the Celsis Continent" from the system warehouse, turned to the page of the corpse flower, and showed the illustration of the corpse flower to Mina, Ivennie, and Lexi.

"I want to find this plant, you three help me find it."

"No problem, boss." Lexi smiled enthusiastically.

Ivennie and Mina nodded slightly.

The four began to search in the cemetery.

The corpse flower, a plant, exudes a strong stench that can be smelled from a long distance. It is relatively easy to find it as long as you smell the smell in the air.

No one usually comes to a place like a cemetery to hang out.

Cheng Yu walked among the tall tombstones. The surrounding environment was so quiet that it seemed as if you could hear your heartbeat, and it was even a little gloomy.

When Cheng Yu walked between two tall tombstones, he suddenly saw a person sitting there, and his nerves tensed.

Between the two tall white stone tombstones, there was a small table and a small bench. An old man with white hair and beard was sitting in front of the table. There were books and tea sets on the table. He was reading and drinking tea leisurely.

"Old man, are you a human or a ghost?" Cheng Yu asked the old man who was drinking tea and reading.

Normal people would not drink tea and read books in a cemetery. This old man might be a deceased ghost.

Putting down the teacup and book in his hand, the white-haired old man glanced at Cheng Yu and said lightly, "Of course I am a human."

"So, what are you doing here?"

The white-haired old man sat upright and turned the pages of the book gracefully, "As you can see, drinking tea and reading books cultivates sentiments."

Cheng Yu was confused, "Come to a ghost place like the cemetery to drink tea and read books?"

Hearing Cheng Yu's disrespect for the cemetery, the white-haired old man showed a trace of displeasure on his old face, waved his fist, and cursed angrily, "The cemetery is the resting place of the end of human life. It is the most wonderful place in the world. Anyone who slanders the cemetery will go to hell."

Cheng Yu looked at the book on the old man's table, "Self-cultivation of an Elegant Necromancer".

It seems that this old man should be a necromancer.

Rumor has it that in the eyes of necromancers, cemeteries are more wonderful places than brothels.

It seems that the rumor seems to be true.

"Excuse me."

Cheng Yu ignored the old man and continued to look for the corpse flower.

Half an hour later, he searched the entire cemetery, but there was no trace of the corpse flower.

"Boss, there is a smaller cemetery in the south." Lexi said to Cheng Yu.

"Take me there."

The special recipe [pickled earthworms] can not only heal injuries, but also restore physical strength, so it must be prepared.

"I can take you to the cemetery in the south, but you have to pay a little." Lexi said, "I'm not blackmailing you, you can pay as much as you want."

Thinking that Lexi had helped find the corpse flower just now, Cheng Yu didn't say much, and took out a silver coin and threw it to Lexi.

"Thank you, boss." Lexi bowed and thanked him.

"Let's go."

Lexi took Cheng Yu and the other two to the cemetery in the south.

The cemetery in the south is smaller than the previous one. It is located in a dense forest. It is quiet all around, and the leaves block the sunlight, making it eerie and hidden.

The four of them walked into the cemetery and started looking for corpse-scented flowers.

Not long after walking into this small cemetery, Cheng Yu heard a strange rustling sound coming from underground.

Frowning slightly, Cheng Yu felt a little worried.

Could the corpse here be resurrected?

Following the strange sound, they came to a tombstone more than two meters high. The strange sound came from behind the tombstone.

After walking around the tombstone, Cheng Yu saw a one-meter-diameter robbery hole behind the tombstone. A middle-aged man with a scar on his face was lying beside the robbery hole and dragged out the body of a young girl from the robbery hole.

The female corpse was stiff and pale, but not rotten, and should have been buried not long ago.

The scarred man dragged the girl's corpse out of the tunnel and was startled to see Cheng Yu standing next to him staring at him, "You... who are you?"

"Uh... I'm just passing by." Cheng Yu said, "What are you doing?"

It turned out that he was just passing by.

The panting scarred man breathed a sigh of relief, "I am a necromancy magician, and I have been watching near this cemetery for a long time. A beautiful noble lady was buried here yesterday. I took her back to be my wife, hehe~"

The scarred man grinned, his eyes curved into crescents, and a funny smile appeared on his face.

ヽ(ﾟДﾟ)ﾉ

Cheng Yu stared with eyes wide open, his face full of shock, "Brother, wouldn't it be nice to find a living person as a wife?"

"Living people are not as good as dead people."

The scarred man hugged the cold body of the girl and kissed the pale face of the corpse with an intoxicated expression on his face.

This is too abstract!

Thinking of the old man who cultivated his sentiments in the cemetery just now, Cheng Yu seriously doubted the mental state of the group of people who learned necromancy.

Did these guys learn necromancy and their brains were damaged.

The scarred man carried the girl's body on his shoulders and showed off to Cheng Yu, "Look, my wife is cold and stable, isn't she much cuter than a living person?"

Cheng Yu clasped his fists in admiration, "Great, great, I lost."

"Please don't spread this matter."

After saying that, the scarred man prepared to leave the cemetery.

Seeing the middle-aged man was about to leave, Cheng Yu hurriedly called out, "Brother, please stay."

"Anything else?"

The scarred man turned around.

"Do you know where there are corpse flowers?" Cheng Yu asked.

Necromancers often deal with the dead, so they might know where there are corpse flowers.

"Corpse flowers? I remember there was a pile of corpses in the valley southeast of this cemetery, and there was a large area of ​​corpse flowers there. However, there are undead monsters nearby, so it's a bit dangerous." The scarred man said.

"Thank you."

Cheng Yu thanked the scarred man.

Then, he walked to Mina and the others, "Don't look for it here, there are no corpse flowers here, let's go to the valley in the southeast to look for it."

"Oh."

Ivennie and Mina didn't look for it anymore.

Rexy came over and asked, "Boss, aren't you looking for the Corpse Flower?"

"We are going to the valley in the southeast, you don't have to follow."

Rexy is just an ordinary person, and following is a burden.

"Boss, I'm leaving. You can come to the Mercenary Guild to find me next time you need to lead the way."

Rexy left the cemetery alone.

Cheng Yu took Mina and Ivennie out of the cemetery and walked southeast.

The three of them walked about five or six miles, and a hill of four or five hundred meters high appeared in front of them. The hill was covered with a large area of ​​green plants.

Walking to the top of the hill, you can see a low-lying area between this hill and another hill.

In the middle of the depression, there is a large area of ​​green plants, and the top of the plants blooms with deep red flowers, shaped like trumpets, which is exactly the Corpse Flower that Cheng Yu is looking for.
