In the dungeon game, I influence all monsters with my strength

Chapter 70 70. Mute old man
"People from Hongshi Town next door," Jiang Yingbai replied.

When the townspeople heard Jiang Yingbai's words, they couldn't help but turn their eyes back, "What's the matter with you?"

During this period, he met many people who had fled, and it was the first time he saw such a beautiful place. It seemed that the earthquake did not cause any inconvenience to them.

Jiang Yingbai didn't explain much, he just said casually, "I have something to do with him. Do you know where the mute old man went?"

The townsman leaned close to Jiang Yingbai and whispered, "He didn't go out, he was just inside the house."

Jiang Yingbai asked, "Since he is in the house, why is there no answer when he knocks on the door?"

The townsman swallowed, glanced at the small building and immediately retracted, "He never communicates with outsiders."

Jiang Yingbai was a little curious. The townspeople seemed a little afraid of the mute old man. He just had a weird temper and wouldn't make people around him fearful. There must be other reasons.

Jiang Yingbai took out two copper free coins from his pocket and quietly stuffed them into the hands of the townspeople.

The copper free coin is twice the denomination of the free coin. 1 copper free coin is converted into RMB about 6 yuan.

The fear on the faces of the townspeople was swept away, and they put the free coins back into their pockets with a smile on their faces, and patted their chests.

"If you want to know anything, just ask, I know everything, up to whose wife ran away with someone, down to where the extra dogs on the side of the road come from."

When the townspeople behind him saw Jiang Yingbai paying, their eyes widened, and they loudly expressed that they were the best informed.

He waved his hand to drive away the other townspeople behind him, "Go, go, go."

Jiang Yingbai asked, "Do you know why the dumb old man lives here?"

The townspeople approached Jiang Yingbai, and led Jiang Yingbai and the others to a remote place with a fixed face, "This..."

Several townspeople behind him chattered and expressed their dissatisfaction with his mysterious behavior.

He touched the back of his head, "Actually, I don't know either."

Lota gave a dissatisfied "tsk", "I don't know what, what money do you charge?"

The townsman covered the money in his pocket and took a step back, "Give it to me, it's mine."

Jiang Yingbai ignored the conversation between the two, "How about the dumb old man?"

The townspeople subconsciously want to go back, which is not good.

But when the words came to his mouth, he realized that the mute old man had never done anything bad. It was better to be more rigorous when doing things with money, so he said.

"The mute old man doesn't like to talk and has no friends. In fact, he is nothing special. He is a very ordinary person."

That would be strange, what caused him to suddenly occupy the abandoned small building.

"Has he done anything to hurt anyone?"

The townspeople shook their heads.

"Did anything special happen in town a few days before he moved here?"

After careful reflection by the townspeople, he told a lot of things.

For example, on that day, child A was caught stealing fruit from family B. He dropped the toy in his pocket while escaping in a hurry. The adult from family B gave the toy to child B.

On the second day, child b put the toy on his head and swaggered around child a.

C had a missing chicken, and C suspected that D had stolen it. The two quarreled, and the quarrel reached the mayor. They asked the mayor to comment, but the mayor scolded them and kicked them out.

The two townspeople began to scold each other because of the 1 Liberty Coin, and they scolded each other for several days. From day to night, the people nearby couldn't sleep because of the noise.

……

Jiang Yingbai and Luota listened carefully at first, thinking they could hear useful news, but the more they listened, the more they became speechless.

Under the cold eyes of the two, the townsman frantically thought about it, and finally he remembered something.

"Don't be angry, young people, don't be too impatient, too impatient..."

Lotta interrupted him impatiently, "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll kill you."

Seeing this, the townsman immediately said, "Didn't I remember something? A few days ago, the dumb old man did some handyman for others, repairing tables, doing coolies and so on."

Jiang Yingbai asked, "Don't he just want food?"

The townspeople shook their heads, "No, that's all nonsense that others don't understand. The mute old man is not a beggar at all. He never goes to other people's homes to beg for food."

"The mute old man likes to sit on the street, so he is thought to be a beggar. He never yells when he sits on the street, and he will not accept money from others."

Jiang Yingbai and Luota did not speak and continued to listen.

"His income comes from doing odd jobs for the people in the town. 1 free coin can let him do a coolie for a day, and if he is not satisfied, he can change it, and he will not say anything."

The dumb old man didn't steal or rob, never had any quarrel with anyone, and worked hard. He was obviously an honest and responsible person. Even if his personality was a bit strange, he wouldn't scare the people around him.

Jiang Yingbai asked, "According to what you said, isn't it normal for him to work as a handyman for others?"

"Well, I know, mainly because he has been doing handyman for those few days, and I heard someone say that he went to the Perkodo wizard's house."

Lotta, who originally looked dissatisfied and wanted to hit someone, suddenly changed his expression when he heard this.

The mute old man actually got involved with Percodo. What happened between them? Did they reach some kind of agreement?So the mute moved here.

Maybe the mute old man abducted those people, Lotta thought wildly.

"Do you know what he's going to do?"

"do not know."

Jiang Yingbai asked his most curious question, "Why are you afraid of him?"

The faces of the townspeople froze, and they took a quick look at the abandoned building, only to find that there was nothing, so he spoke.

"His face is terrifying! You don't know that!"

The townspeople stretched out their hands and gestured in the air, about 10 centimeters long, and said with a sigh, "There is a big wound on his face. It looks scary to death."

Staring at his gestures, Jiang Yingbai imagined it in his mind. The scar almost ran through his entire face. It was hard not to make people suspect that he was a bandit before.

Without a story, there is no way there would be such a long scar on his face.

Without some background, it is impossible to deal with the scars on the face.

No wonder the townspeople are afraid of him. With looks like this, even if he has a particularly good temper, it's hard to leave a good impression on others.

Jiang Yingbai asked some more questions. Among the townspeople pushing nonsense, she only found some useful things. She didn't let the townspeople go back until there was nothing more to ask.

After seeing the townspeople leave, Lota asked, "What should we do next?"

Jiang Yingbai walked ahead, "Keep knocking."

After the three knocked continuously for 1 minute, the door finally opened from the inside.

The moment the door opened, the townspeople on the street went home one after another, and soon everyone on the street disappeared.

A fierce face appeared in the gap. His eyebrows were thick and thick, and he had a cold expression. The corners of his mouth and eyes were drooped down, giving him the feeling that he was very angry.

Of course, the most important thing is the scar that runs through his entire face.
