Chapter 71 71. Should you come or not? If you shouldn’t come, just post it.
A brown scar bisected his face in two.

Although the dumb old man was called an old man, he didn't look old at all. He straightened his back and wore a mess of blond hair. It seemed that he hadn't combed it for a long time, but it was not oily or stained.

It is better to see it in person than to listen to it hundreds of times.

I don't know how other people's comments came from, but Jiang Yingbai's impression of the dumb old man is pretty good.

A low, dry, calm voice sounded above the head, "What's the matter?"

The mute old man was very tall, nearly two heads taller than Jiang Yingbai, and he felt very oppressive.

Jiang Yingbai raised his head, his tone neither humble nor arrogant, still unchanged, "Hello, I want to know something from you."

The dumb old man looked at the three of them with a cold face, "You are not allowed to enter here, go to another place to play."

"We're not here to play."

The mute old man closed the door and said, "Then what do you want to do?"

"We want to investigate with you the missing persons in the town."

The dumb old man looked the three of them up and down again, "Don't investigate, be careful to tune yourself out, go back and play."

Jiang Yingbai stretched out his hand to stop the door that the mute old man was about to close, "I can pay."

After hearing this, the mute old man did not let them into the house, but laughed disdainfully, "How much money do you kids have?"

Jiang Yingbai casually took out a handful of free coins from his pocket.

The mute old man's expression condensed and he immediately returned to normal, "It doesn't matter if you have money. It's getting late. You kids should go back early."

After saying that, he closed the door mercilessly, so fast that Jiang Yingbai didn't react.

Upon seeing this, Luota wanted to step forward and continue to knock on the door, but was stopped by Jiang Yingbai, "If he doesn't want to say it, forget it. We'll come find him next time."

Lotta glared at the abandoned building unwillingly and kicked away the stones next to her, "Humph, what are you pretending to be?"

Jiang Yingbai pulled him back, "Okay, let's go back first."

The three of them walked towards the tavern and passed by Percodo, who was still distributing food to the homeless.

The three didn't pay much attention to him, but he stopped them, "The three in front."

Jiang Yingbai turned around with doubts, "Are you okay?"

Percodo smiled kindly, and walked up to the three of them, "You guys are so unfamiliar, did you come to Pingyu Town recently?"

Lotus pulled Xia and lowered her head, hiding behind Jiang Yingbai, avoiding his probing eyes.

Jiang Yingbai replied, "Yes."

Percodo took out a pure black wand from his pocket, which seemed to be made of black magic crystal. He showed it to the three of them, with imperceptible pride in his eyes.

"Where are you from? What are you doing in Pingyu Town? If you have any difficulties, please tell me. Maybe I can help you."

Jiang Yingbai smiled at him, clenched his hands into fists, looked up at him, and said excitedly, "Really? Thank you for your kindness. You are really a great magician."

Percodo smiled, and reached out to rub Jiang Yingbai's head.

Jiang Yingbai lowered her head to avoid it, and she reached out to get the wand in his hand. Seeing this, Pokodo immediately took a step back, squinting at Jiang Yingbai.

Jiang Yingbai raised his head, blinked, and looked at him innocently, "Mr. Great Magician, can't you let me see your wand?"

The corner of Percodo's mouth moved slightly, realizing that his reaction was too big.

Percordo took out the magic wand and handed it to Jiang Yingbai, "Of course."

Jiang Yingbai took it, hehe, he giggled twice, "Thank you, great magician."

Jiang Yingbai pretended to be a fool, raised the magic wand in the air, looked closer, looked far away, and touched it back and forth. It took a while for her to return the wand to Perkodo.

She sincerely thanked you, "Thank you, great magician. If it weren't for you, I would never have seen a magic wand in my life. Thank you so much."

Percordo enjoyed her admiration very much, and he nodded with satisfaction.

It turned out to be just a country kid who didn't understand anything, what a pity for such a good skin.

Jiang Yingbai waved goodbye to him vigorously, "Then I'll go first, great magician."

However, Percodo grabbed him by the collar and said, "Wait a minute, you haven't said what you do yet."

Jiang Yingbai turned around speechlessly.

With a smile on his face, he said to Percodo, "I'm here to play."

Percodo thought about the word, "Play?"

"correct."

Just when Jiang Yingbai was thinking about making up an excuse, she felt the corner of her clothes being pulled by someone. She looked back and saw that it was Luota who had always lowered her head.

He said softly, "Sister, I'm hungry, I want to go home for dinner, let's go back, I'm still a little sleepy..."

Jiang Yingbai received the call immediately, "Okay, let's go back now."

But Pokodo stopped Jiang Yingbai again, and he took out a piece of meat wrapped in leaves from the basket he carried with him, and put it in Jiang Yingbai's hands.

"Hungry? I have something to eat here."

Jiang Yingbai pretended to be surprised and said, "Thank you very much."

Jiang Yingbai weighed it, and it weighed about a catty. It was amazing that such a large piece of meat did not spill a little oil.

Jiang Yingbai handed the meat to Luota, but Luota didn't take it. He just listened to him say, "Humph, sister, why didn't you listen to my last words! I even said I was sleepy!"

After finishing speaking, Luota threw Jiang Yingbai's sleeve angrily, turned around with his hips akimbo, and left alone.

Jiang Yingbai smiled apologetically at Perco, "I'm very sorry. My brother has a bad temper. I'll talk to you another day."

After saying that, Jiang Yingbai pulled Xia and caught up with Luota.

Percodo stared at the three figures until their backs completely disappeared from the street. He touched his chin in deep thought.

Although the girl just now showed that she admired Percodo very much, she didn't say anything about what Percodo wanted to know.

Is it intentional or is it really stupid?
Percodo hates accidents very much, especially under his own eyes. He hopes that he can secretly control everything around him, and that all people and things should operate step by step under his control.

No surprises or outliers can occur.

Crises never appear suddenly, nor do they overthrow the king's rebel forces, nor do they suddenly rebel overnight. Everything is foreshadowed.

Therefore, he will not tolerate things that do not know the bottom line, enter his territory, and nip anything uncontrollable in the cradle.

Pokodo, who was thinking with his head down, didn't realize that someone nearby was staring at him.

Of course, Jiang Yingbai and the others didn't notice either.

After confirming that he was the only one following Jiang Yingbai, the mute old man turned around and walked back to the abandoned building.

……

Lotta turned around frequently to look behind her.

Jiang Yingbai said, "I guess I didn't catch up."

Lotta rolled her eyes and got rid of him, "Is he targeting us?"

Jiang Yingbai also thought so, "It should be."
