Romance of Gods

Chapter 140 Tramp II
"Sir, I really do."

Li stood up and was about to walk towards Chen Yan, when he suddenly noticed the wary look from the other party and stopped immediately.

He was trembling in his heart. He didn't know when he had offended this person, and the other person's hostility was not concealed at all.

Lee, the homeless man.

Last time today, Chen Yan met him twice.

Once in an alley, he asked for two gold coins, but he refused.

The second time, it was at Lakes Manor.

At that time, Lee, masked, led a group of people into the castle and killed David and Bob.

But Chen Yan believed that after activating the church system, he would have no contact with Lex anymore, so he didn't think deeply about it.

And today, I met him again.

Moreover, the opponent seemed to hold important clues about the devil's mission, which made him think more.

Then he began to think about the inconspicuous gunshot just now...it seemed to have sounded near Tavern Street.

Yesterday at this time, someone also opened fire.

At this time, he noticed that Li Zheng was looking at him very fearfully.

Chen Yan understood that he had overreacted.

He relaxed and smiled, "There are actually people who have heard of demons... Could you be lying to me?"

Li Wenyan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the other party thought he was teasing him.

Someone introduced: "Sir, this is Li, a rare gentleman among tramps. He is well-informed and will never lie."

Li walked up to the steps and waved modestly, "It's not that exaggerated. I just lived a few more years."

Chen Yan first suppressed his doubts. If Li Zhen knew the news about the devil, then the rest was not important.

"Tell me what this demon looks like."

"If you are interested, sir, I am willing to take you to see it...but you must be prepared to encounter misfortune."

Although Li's tone was mysterious, he had never actually seen the devil and only heard everything from White.

But he has been at the bottom for so many years and understands a truth.

If you want to achieve your goals with the help of a powerful person, you must not appear small or incompetent in front of the other party.

"So I want to ask, what is the reason why sir is looking for the devil?"

Seeing him pretending to be a ghost, Chen Yan ignored him and said nonsense: "As I said, I am a demon hunter, and hunting demons is my bounden duty."

Li was very happy when he heard this. With the help of professionals, the treasure far away was not so illusory.

"In that case, we will take you to see it."

The homeless people nearby were shocked when they heard this and refused.

"Li, you said that you will encounter misfortune when you encounter a demon. This is not a good thing. Why are you taking us there?"

Li Xindao said that the white-haired man was the strongest among them, but he was still killed by Chen Yan with one move.

He is older, so naturally he is no match.

If you don’t have a few friends around to help you, what should you do if the other party takes advantage of the money and kills someone to silence you?
"Sir, could you move a little bit? I have something to say to them."

Just like other homeless people said, it's not a good thing to go to the devil. This Li is too concerned about it.

He would definitely not tell the truth in front of himself.

Chen Yan stood up silently, walked straight to a dozen meters away, then turned on the sound poison and eavesdropped on the conversations of several people.

After waking up today, he found that the cooldown time of all skills had expired, which was probably related to the restart of time.

That's good news for him and will ensure he's ready to fight every night.

But when he saw him walking away, Li felt relieved, raised his hand to stop the quarrel among the wanderers, and lowered his voice: "Let me tell you, where we are going this time, not only do demons exist, but there are also a lot of treasures buried there."

"Treasure!"

"Shh!"

Li Bi made a silent gesture.

"what happened?"

Li couldn't help but smile, "A friend I once met in prison told me that he often went to that place and lived a happy life relying on the property there.

But a few years ago, that place was occupied by the devil. The last time he went in, he almost lost his life... He came to me two days ago and asked me to get a gun and go in together to take a look.

But since I don't have the ability, this plan fell through. But now that this Eastern man has come to our door, we can just rely on him to seize that batch of treasures!
I have heard that in that ancient eastern country, there were many magicians who could cast down demons.This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Do you want to be a mouse for the rest of your life, or must you have the courage to fight the devil! "

After everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel excited. When they looked at the body of the white-haired man, the last hesitation was eliminated.

As a tramp, no matter how miserably you die, no one cares about you, why not risk your life and try to get rich!
Of course, the most important reason is that Li never lies.

Chen Yan was far away, listening to everyone's conversation.

Treasure, devil... Based on last night's scene, is this Li going to take him to Clays Manor?

Li led the homeless people over and said in an excited tone, "Sir, I have convinced them. These brothers are willing to help you kill the demon."

Chen Yan turned around and smiled, "There is strength in numbers, so we might as well go together... But I want to know where the devil is."

Li hesitated for a moment. He definitely couldn't tell the other party the location now.

What if he finds out and dumps people like himself?
"In a cemetery, sorry, that's all I can say for now."

It's a cemetery, not Clayton Manor.

Chen Yan's mind raced and an interesting thought came to his mind.

Yesterday, Li and others showed up at Lakes Manor in that costume, probably going to rob.

But now, because of his appearance, they changed their plans and chose to go treasure hunting in the cemetery.So, he changed their future?

Destiny is really magical...

After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Understood."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, each with their own agenda.

"By the way, don't you know your surname?"

"The last name is Chen."

"Mr. Chen, let's leave as soon as possible while the time is still early. By night, the devil's power will increase."

"Walk."

Under the leadership of Li, everyone crossed London Bridge and headed north of the city.

In the meantime, Chen Yan wanted to visit the place where the gunshot was fired, but quickly gave up the idea.

If Zhang Bulu shot himself in front of him, he wanted to lure himself to Clays Manor.

Then his goal has been achieved. There is no reason for him to be here today. The gunfire must be a coincidence.

Under the cover of thick black fog, no one noticed that the moment they arrived at the north bank of the Thames River, today's time pressed the fast forward button again.

At the same time, at the crossroads, the corpse collector picked up the violet musket that fell on the ground, wiped it with his clothes excitedly, and then carried the young man who committed suicide to the car;

In the Nightingale Tavern, there were violent sounds of fighting and yelling. The bank clerk who hurried to the tavern was anxious and read the newspaper in his hand over and over again;
"Welcome, let me get the gifts for you." Maggie opened the door and greeted the new tenants with a smile...

The gears turned again and everything fell into place.

After a long time, I suddenly heard someone whispering and gnashing their teeth behind the thick fog.

"Kill Kress! Today, no matter how late it is, it will be too late!"

……

London, northern suburbs, sycamore forest, heavy fog.

After two or three hours of walking, the homeless people left the urban area like Dyeingfang and came to the quiet north of the city.

"It's getting dark so fast today..."

Not sure whether it was a psychological effect or a sign of danger, Li Zhou looked at the strange sky and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

He looked up, and behind the sycamore branches that rustled like ghostly shadows, the billowing black mist was cut into pieces.

He shuddered and turned to look at Chen Yan, who was standing motionless on the gravel road, "Let's go, Mr. Chen, we don't have much time."

Chen Yan looked at the deep forest road in front of him with solemn eyes. At the end of this road was Clays Manor.

Something's wrong, why are you back in this damn place again?
Thinking of the series of strange encounters that happened around Clays Manor, Chen Yan still feels a little hairy.

Li urged: "It's not this way, let's go east."

Hearing this, he came to his senses, and Li and others had already started to take action, tiptoeing towards the northeast.

Seeing that his destination had deviated from the road to the manor, he suppressed his doubts and followed them with strides.

Not long after they left, a carriage came quickly from the south.

Four ferocious pirates sat on the cart and whipped the horses pulling the cart mercilessly.

The fat man driving the car asked curiously: "Captain, why did you come up with the idea of ​​​​Cress Manor?"

The middle-aged man with a beard wearing an eye patch was furious when he heard this and kicked him on the back.

"It's not you trash that caused this! I started a conflict with the people from the Chimney Gathering. I can't stay in London any longer. Once this is done, we'll find a way to escape!"

Hearing this, the other three people remained silent and did not dare to speak any more.

The man with the eyepatch breathed heavily, remembering the bizarre encounter this morning.

A young man ran up to him inexplicably, shouted that there was a treasure in Clays Manor, and shot himself in the head.

He was startled at that time and fled the scene of the incident in a hurry.

But thinking about it afterwards, maybe this was a messenger sent by God to let him make this windfall.

Ten minutes later, the carriage arrived deep in the forest, and a huge manor loomed in the mist.

The pirates got out of the car and were about to climb up the railing and wall when a hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind the door.

"You guys, what are you doing?"

The old face that appeared behind the railing startled everyone.

The man with the eye patch was the first to calm down. He inserted the saber into the gap and aimed it at the old woman's throat.

"What are you doing! Robbery! Open the door for me!"

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the old woman opened the door without thinking, "Four of you, please come in, but you have to think carefully, if you go in, you won't be able to get out."

"I, come from the east, my ancestors have stopped singing this empty city plan!" The man with the eyepatch smiled coldly, "But I guess you are wise, I will spare your life, wine barrel, don't you like this? ?give it to you."

"Good! Good!"

The fat man was so excited that he couldn't speak coherently. He stepped forward and carefully held her hand.

Afterwards, everyone swaggered into Clays Manor.

A pair of eyes hidden not far away had a panoramic view of this scene.

"Oh my god! Fortunately...I didn't rush to blackmail..."

White swallowed a big mouthful of saliva and leaned his back against the tree trunk, still feeling frightened.

After calming down for a while, he rushed into the depths of the jungle.
