After crossing over, the demon king rolled in my arms and acted like a spoiled child

"Brother, what do you think is wrong with him?" Bai Jiyue asked.

"Look at his body shape. I didn't notice it before, but today my second sister mentioned it and I realized that he is indeed shorter than most people."

"What's wrong with being short?" Bai Jiyun asked with his head tilted.

"He's short, but he's incredibly strong, which isn't normal. For us humans, strength is usually proportional to our stature, but he's different."

Bai Jiyue caught something from his words: "Brother, do you mean that he...is not a human?"

"Do you still remember the tribe illustration I showed you that day? I flipped through it later and I remember it said that the people of the Artisan tribe are usually short in stature, but very strong, especially in their upper limbs. This is related to their bloodline that is good at forging weapons."

Bai Jiyue opened his eyes wide: "You mean, he is from the craftsman tribe?"

"Very likely. Otherwise, why are the weapons he forged so good?"

"But why would the Artisans come to the Dark Stone Wasteland?" Bai Jiyue was a little confused.

The Dark Stone Wasteland is where humans exile criminals. The craftsmen are more advanced than humans, and it is already a condescension for them to come to the human territory, let alone come to the barren and evil-ridden Dark Stone Wasteland.

Bai Yiri probably couldn't figure it out either and shook his head.

Bai Jiyun said: "If we want to know, can't we just ask him later?"

Bai Jiyue smiled and said, "Little sister, you are right. We will go ask him tomorrow."

The few people were not in a hurry to go back, but went to the market to buy some food, some cloth, and some hairbands, earrings and other items for girls before preparing to go home.

When passing by a restaurant, Bai Jiyun was so shocked by the delicious food that he couldn't walk anymore.

Bai Jiyue asked with a smile: "Why, do you want to eat?"

Bai Jiyun pointed at his finger and said, "When we were in the capital, Dad would take our whole family to Yanxiang Tower for a big meal every few days. But since we came to the Dark Stone Wasteland, let alone Yanxiang Tower, we haven't eaten outside..."

"Then let's go to the restaurant and have dinner before leaving!" Bai Jiyue said generously.

"That mother——" Bai Jiri interrupted.

"Let's pack some food for mom to take back." Bai Jiyue replied with a smile.

Bai Jiyun clapped his hands and jumped high.

This restaurant is the best in the market, but it is not very big, with only four or five large tables.

The truth is that the people in the Dark Stone Wasteland are all poor, and only a few of them can afford to go out to eat in restaurants.

Bai Jiyue and his friends sat at the largest table by the window, and the three siblings studied the menu with a little excitement.

"Hey, I want to eat this stewed pork elbow!" Bai Jiyun pointed and said, his saliva almost flowing out.

Bai Jiyue smiled and said to the waiter, "Then I'd like some stewed pork elbow."

Just as the waiter was about to respond, someone shouted, "Waiter, I want one portion of braised pork elbow, two portions of beef, and twenty large buns to take away!"

Bai Jiyue and the others turned around and saw several men walking in, and it was one of them who was shouting.

They were dressed in black tights, had thin bodies, and did not look like people from the Dark Stone Wasteland.

The waiter replied, "Sir, I'm sorry, there's only one portion of stewed pork elbow left, and the guests at this table just ordered it."

With a "bang", the man slammed a pile of copper coins on the table, "Whoever pays first gets to take it first!"

Bai Jiyue also took out a coin from his pocket and slapped it on the table: "You are not the only ones who have money!"

The man turned his head and gave Bai Jiyue a sharp look, then walked towards them.

He walked to their table, picked up Bai Jiyue's copper coin, squeezed it for a moment, then slapped it on the table and asked, "Is it for you or for us?"

Bai Jiyue lowered his eyes to look at the copper coin and couldn't help but gasp.

The string of copper coins was actually deformed and bent by him, which shows how great his finger strength is!

But she was not someone who could be scared. Just as she was about to retort, Bai Jiri grabbed her arm.

She turned to look at her eldest brother, only to see him smiling and saying to the man, "Okay, I'll give it to you. But I'll have to trouble you to help us restore the copper coins to their original state!"

Bai Jiyue was about to speak indignantly when he felt his elder brother's hand pinching his arm harder, so he kept silent.

The man said proudly: "That's more like it."

As he said this, he took the coin, held it in his hand for a while, and then put it back, and the coin returned to its original shape.

After a while, the waiter packed up the dishes they ordered and handed them over, and the men left.

Bai Jiyue then asked Bai Jiri: "Brother, why should we be afraid of them?"

"Haven't you noticed? They are also short in stature but very strong." Bai Jiri said.

Bai Jiyue's heart trembled, and he immediately understood something.

"Why are the people from the Artisan Clan coming here one after another? Could these people be related to the Chu Craftsman?" Bai Jiri expressed his concerns.

Bai Jiyue said: "How about we go see Chujiang?"

"Okay." Bai Jiri made a gesture to leave.

Bai Jiyue looked at Bai Jiyun's bitter face and held Bai Jiri, "Your legs are not convenient, so pushing you will be slow. You accompany my younger sister and the others to eat here and go home. I will go to Chujiang alone. I am fast, and these people may not be here to see Chujiang."

Bai Jiri thought about it and said, "Okay, go and have a look. Be careful."

Bai Jiyue nodded and stood up.

Just as he was about to take a step, his arm was suddenly grabbed by a small hand.

She lowered her head and stroked Mingyuan's little head: "It's okay, sister will be back soon, just go home and wait for sister obediently."

Ming Yuan didn't answer, but reached out and pulled out the dagger from Bai Jiyun's waist and handed it to her.

Bai Jiyue then realized that he had forgotten to bring the deadly sword when he went out today.

Her heart warmed, and she smiled at Ming Yuan: "Our A Yuan is really careful. He even noticed that my sister didn't bring a weapon."

Ming Yuan: "Fly!"

He only said one word, and Bai Jiyue understood: "You want to put my sister in danger and let the dagger fly, right?"

Ming Yuan nodded heavily: Those people might be easier to fight if you use your ability of controlling weapons.

Bai Jiyue rubbed his head: "Thank you for reminding me!"

Then he put Bai Jiyun's dagger into his waist and left the restaurant.

After she left, Bai Jiri and Bai Jiyun were in no mood to eat slowly, so they ordered a few dishes to be packed up and followed her home.

The sky gradually darkened, and Bai Jiyue walked towards Chujiang's blacksmith shop in the moonlight.

Two or three hundred meters away from the blacksmith shop, she suddenly stopped.

With her keen sense of smell, she smelled blood in the wind!

The wind was coming from the direction of the blacksmith shop!

She thought of something and suddenly quickened her pace, running towards the blacksmith shop.

When she ran outside the blacksmith shop, she found something unusual. A beginner blacksmith always does things in an organized manner, and the shed outside the blacksmith shop is always tidy, but at this moment it is a mess.

The dried vegetables hung out to dry were scattered all over the floor, and the small tea table was also falling apart!
