After a while, Yousi smiled again and said embarrassedly, “Why? Are you interested in me?”

Su Chen just looked at him without having any reaction. Yousi seemed to know that he could not get away with it, so he stood up, turned his back to Su Chen, and answered, “It’s been two years. I’ve answered all your questions. I heard that you’re going to Marhaz. If you want to go there, I’ll remind you to be careful. It’s not so peaceful there anymore.”

After saying that, Yousi left the room. Su Chen sensed that things were not that simple with him.

After eating, Su Chen felt that his whole body had become much more energetic and full of strength. Therefore, he planned to go out for a walk. When he reached the door, he bumped into Youli who was running to him with a set of clothes.

“Brother Su Chen, these are my brother’s clothes. You two are about the same size so you can make do with it.”

Taking the clothes, it looked like a western-style shirt vest and a brown suit.

“Thank you, I’ll give you the money for the clothes when the time comes,” Su Chen answered casually and changed into the clothes that fit much better than he expected. Youli looked at him with a satisfied expression.

“Brother Su Chen, don’t listen to my brother’s nonsense. It’s a piece of cake to help you.”

Looking at Youli’s smile, Su Chen suddenly felt his face turn red. He turned around and walked out the door.

When he walked outside, some of the aunties and uncles who were working turned around to look at him and greeted him, “Young man, are you feeling better?”

Su Chen answered each and every one of them politely. As expected of a small village, small matters could be spread immediately.

In a short while, Su Chen had already visited the entire village. He found that the terrain of this village was simple and close to the sea. Although it was only a small village, it had everything that it should have—tailors, blacksmiths, and so on. It could be said that it had everything.

After taking a walk around the village, he found that the main problem was that he did not have money. Without money, he could not buy the things that he needed, and he also could not go to Marhaz from here. After all, the distance was long, and if he did not rely on some form of transportation, he would not be able to reach Marhaz even in 10 days to half a month.

At this moment, an old woman suddenly came over and said, “Young man, I heard that you were rescued by the Uy’s family at sea. You crossed the sea alone, so you can be considered to be a warrior of the sea. I have a job for you but I don’t know if you’re willing to help me. If you are, I’m willing to pay you one thousand BR coins.”

After the old woman finished speaking, the AI figurine that had not appeared for a long time suddenly appeared.

“Master, hello. You’ve triggered a side mission in Haiping Village. The reward for completing the mission is one thousand BR coins. The difficulty of the mission is simple. Are you willing to accept it?”

At this moment, a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ option appeared on the interface. Su Chen hesitated for a moment. The difficulty of the mission was simple? That should not be a problem. After all, he still had his secret weapon, a pistol. Although he only had five bullets, this mission was the only way to quickly get a large sum of money.

In the end, Su Chen decided to accept the mission.

The old woman continued, “Young man, thank you for your courage. The thing is, there’s a dense forest in the depths of Haiping Village. Since two years ago, the dense forest would often emit blue light in the middle of the night, so no one dared to approach the forest. My grandson, Alpha, didn’t return home after playing outside one day. We searched everywhere but we couldn’t find him.

“However, I found the slingshot that he often wore by his waist at the entrance of the forest. I suspect that he ran into it and got lost. As an old woman, I really don’t have the courage to go and find my grandson by myself, so I can only trouble you.”

When Su Chen heard that it was a simple task of finding someone, he assumed there should not be any danger. Thus, he accepted the task and returned to Youli’s residence.

Just as he walked into the house, a huge monster pounced on him. When he looked closely, he saw that it was the white wolf, looking at him with its tongue sticking out. It looked very much like a puppy without an ounce of aggression.

“Oh, sure enough, pets follow their owners. Its recovery ability’s quite fast. Now, it can even jump around.”

Yousi watched this scene with a strange expression on his face. On the other hand, Youli took out a large plate of freshly made pastries and invited everyone to have dinner. However, at this moment, Yousi waved his hand and said, “I have something to do today, so I won’t eat. I’m going out for a while and will be back later. Youli, if you’re tired, go to sleep first. There’s no need to wait for me.”

After giving her instructions, Yousi left just like that. Su Chen felt very puzzled. It was already late at night, what could be wrong?

Youli pushed Yousi’s portion to Su Chen and said, “Brother’s really… He always goes out to work in the middle of the night. Maybe some lady has kittens and puppies at home. Brother Su Chen, eat brother’s portion. Don’t waste it.”

After hearing that, he did not think any further. After eating, he had some serious things to do.

In the middle of the meal, Youli started to yawn non-stop. She even started to yawn bit by bit, as if she was going to fall asleep at any moment. Su Chen looked at her and said hurriedly, “Youli, are you too tired today? Why don’t I help you to bed?”

Youli was in a daze as she said a few words, “But… Plate… Brother… You… Me…”

Su Chen really could not understand what she meant. He stood up and helped her up, leading her to her room. The most eye-catching thing in Youli’s room was a photo of her and her brother. At that time, it was obvious that they were still very young. Su Chen carried Youli to bed and covered her with the blanket, and just like that, she fell into a deep sleep.

After leaving the room, Su Chen put away the utensils and returned to his room. He brought his ax and was ready to leave for the jungle.

The moment he left, the white wolf followed him. Su Chen smiled and led the white wolf to the jungle.

It was already very late, and since it was a small village, everyone usually went to bed early. Therefore, the lights outside were very dim. Only a few households were still lit up.

The closer they got to the dense forest, the darker it became. Very soon, he could not see his own fingers.

Su Chen raised his vigilance and observed the surroundings as they entered the dense forest. Then, he took the slingshot given to him by the old woman and let the white wolf sniff it. Then, the white wolf began to run crazily as if it had a direction. When he saw the white wolf taking off, he reacted by running to catch up with it.

He kept running until the white wolf suddenly stopped, indicating that the target was right in front of him. Su Chen looked through the bushes and saw a familiar figure.

Yousi?!
