Summoner: Recognize Kain as the big brother at the beginning

Lanling Wang quietly found two horses in a corner of Jinting City.

He invited casually: "I will take you to a place where you can make money, as a way of repaying your kindness."

Yuxi thought silently in her heart: "Kain will never come back..."

"I have nowhere to go, maybe this is the best option." Yuxi agreed reluctantly.

So, the two of them mounted their horses together and left the hustle and bustle of Jinting City.

I don’t know how long I galloped, but a vibrant oasis gradually appeared in the vast desert, with nameless small flowers blooming all around.

Yuxi felt dizzy and vomited continuously. It turned out that he had never ridden a horse before, and the bumpy ride made him feel very uncomfortable. However, as time went by, he gradually got used to the discomfort and even got used to vomiting.

He couldn't help asking, "Why did you choose to ride a horse?"

Lanling Wang smiled slyly and said, "Because when you are hungry, you can eat horse meat~"

Yuxi walked side by side with Lanling Wang, and couldn't help wondering: "How long will this take?"

Lanling Wang smiled and replied easily: "We will soon reach Qianku City~"

Yuxi asked curiously, "Is it true that you are looking for mercenaries here?"

Lanling Wang nodded and said affirmatively: "Really."

Yuxi was curious: "What kind of task costs so much money?"

Lanling Wang smiled and explained, "The one who issued the task is the new mayor of Qianku City. He is very rich. As long as you find a book in the ruins of Qianku City, you will get 50 gold coins. It is very easy to make money."

After hearing this, Yuxi couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that you also make a living by being a mercenary..."

Lanling Wang shook his head slightly and said frankly: "Not only mercenaries, but also assassinations and stealing secrets. It's not enough to just be a mercenary. After all, I have to make a living~"

Yuxi's heart moved, and she asked curiously, "Does this mean more money?"

Lanling Wang nodded and admitted frankly: "Of course. But you are not strong enough, so you should just be a mercenary~"

Yuxi smiled and replied: "Of course I am a mercenary. Why would I assassinate others when I have nothing better to do? Who can I defeat..."

At this moment, Lanling Wang pointed ahead and said excitedly: "We're here! This city is quite beautiful..."

Yuxi followed his gaze and saw that the main city of Qianku City was built in the mountains, surrounded by rocks and green trees, like an oasis. Even after being ravaged by the demon army, the city's appearance had not changed much except for the main city.

Lanling Wang led him all the way to the main city area, where some cages were propped up high around him.

Yuxi asked curiously, "What is that?"

Lanling Wang replied calmly: "Put the demon seed out there in the sun until it dies~"

After hearing this, Yuxi couldn't help but feel a little pity: "Why don't you just give me a quick death?"

Lanling Wang shook his head and explained: "The people in Qianku City are all scholars. They think this can deter other demons~"

Yuxi couldn't help but ask: "Are you shocked?"

Lanling Wang shrugged and replied, "Whether it is useful or not, only they themselves know."

Under the guidance of Lanling King, they stopped in front of the bulletin board in the main urban area. Surrounded by a bustling crowd, a woman with outstanding temperament was concentrating on the records on a piece of paper.

The elegant lady said to the person in front of her in a gentle voice, "Four books, a total of 4 gold coins. Take them."

Lanling Wang stepped forward and greeted politely: "Hello~"

He then asked, "Are you here to receive the task of collecting books?"

Jialuo raised her head and responded with a smile: "Yes, I am Jialuo. I am the one who issued this task."

Yuxi whispered: "Jia Luo... the archer with the extremely long arms?"

Jia Luo continued to explain: "The reward for collecting a book is 50 gold coins. Are you willing to accept the task?"

Lanling Wang nodded: "Hmm~"

He turned to Jialuo and Yuxi: "You two, I'm with him."

Jia Luo solemnly informed: "I want to remind you that the task of collecting books is somewhat dangerous. Please consider it carefully."

She paused, then continued, "Or, one of you can go in."

She looked at the two people in front of her curiously: "Are you... a couple?"

Yuxi smiled easily: "Hahaha, I said you look like a beautiful woman."

Lanling Wang was anxious and quickly clarified: "Are you blind? I am a man!"

Jia Luo suddenly realized: "Oh——"

She took out two sapphire-like pass stones from her bosom and handed them to Yuxi: "This is the pass stone for entering."

Yuxi took the passstone and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It looks like a sapphire... is it so rich?"

Yuxi held the gem in his hand and asked softly, "Use the gem as a passstone?"

Lanling Wang smiled slightly and said calmly: "It's just a piece of fluorite, not worth mentioning."

He led Yuxi to the entrance, his tone revealing an unquestionable determination: "Do you choose to follow me, or do you decide to explore alone?"

Yuxi asked curiously: "Have you been here before?"

Lanling Wang shook his head slightly and said, "I have never been there." However, a sly look flashed in his eyes, and he continued, "But I think exploring the way should be easy for me."

Yuxi thought for a moment and decided to follow Lanling King: "Then I will go with you."

Lanling Wang nodded, a smile flashing across his lips: "Since we are traveling together, then we have a deal. I will take half of the reward for the books you find."

Yuxi couldn't help but frown when she heard this: "Why is that?"

Lanling Wang looked at me with a sharp gaze and asked, "I brought you here, shouldn't I give you something in return?"

Yuxi was speechless for a moment and had to compromise: "You once said you would repay my kindness..."

Lanling Wang interrupted him: "I have already repaid you by bringing you here. I have paved the way for you, so you have to give something in return!"

Yuxi took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay."
