The man bowed and thanked Luo Xiu, his words mumbled indistinctly.
"I don't know your name yet."
"My name is……"
Luo Xiu thought for a moment, then smiled and said:
"My name is White."
"Thank you, Mr. White."
The man kept bowing and thanking them:
"My name is Hughes. If there's anything I can do to help you in the future, please let me know."
"Yes, Hughes."
Luo Xiu nodded.
Hughes left.
He needed to hurry and find his companion.
He was careless before, which is why he ended up like this.
Now that the chance to turn things around has finally fallen into his hands, he must seize it!
Of course, Luo Xiu knew none of this.
He glanced around the room; it looked like an ordinary single-occupancy room.
It was cleaned very well.
On the fireplace sat a roughly framed painting.
The painting depicts a boy and a girl happily leaning against each other.
The girl's appearance is somewhat similar to the girl lying on the ground in front of them; they should be the same person.
Then, he quickly walked up to the emaciated girl.
A gentle white light shone in my hand.
Chapter 74 The Forest of Illusory Mushrooms (Thank you everyone for reading yesterday)
As the healing white light continued to shine, the girl in the dress lying on the ground gradually regained a rosy complexion.
His previously weak breathing became much stronger.
Luo Xiu looked at her chapped lips and had Leila feed her some water.
Healing spells can restore energy and heal injuries, but the girl in front of him was clearly weak due to long-term malnutrition.
Judging from his appearance, he must have been lying in this house alone for quite some time.
After a while, the girl slowly opened her eyes.
Looking at the people in the room, a look of surprise flashed across the girl's eyes. She subconsciously tried to push herself up with her hands.
However, she was too weak, so what should have been a smooth, continuous movement appeared as a slow-motion sequence to Luo Xiu and the others.
"who are you?"
The girl sat up, realizing how weak and powerless she was, and that it was a miracle she had even woken up.
She looked at Luo Xiu; judging from their positions, Luo Xiu should be the leader among them.
"Did you save me?"
Luo Xiu smiled and said:
"It's not about saving you, it's just making a deal. After all, we should be considered your potential clients."
"You want to go to Kanriel?"
The girl nodded as if she understood, then held up a finger in front of Luo Xiu:
"You saved me, so I'll give you a discount; this is all I'll ask for."
Luo Xiu smiled; it seemed the girl before him wasn't as fragile as she appeared.
"A silver coin? Or a copper coin? It couldn't be a gold coin, could it?"
The girl shook her head:
"One pound of food."
Luo Xiu was stunned for a moment, then said:
Was it always this price?
"Six months ago, it was 20 copper coins per person. In the last six months, it was 3 silver coins per person. But now, the four of you will only be charged one pound of food."
The girl answered fluently.
He certainly seems to be an expert in the field of guiding people.
Luo Xiu nodded:
"can."
They brought enough food in three magic bags this time.
Moreover, the girl's offer was reasonable, so he had no reason to refuse.
Luo Xiu asked Leila to take out a bag of food and hand it to the girl.
The girl took the food and held up one finger:
"Wait for me for ten minutes, I'll leave as soon as I finish eating."
Luo Xiu nodded.
The girl immediately started eating.
She didn't wolf down her food, but ate at a steady, moderate pace.
After eating for about four or five minutes, the girl stopped.
"full?"
Luo Xiu asked with a smile.
"Don't eat too much."
The girl stood up:
"My body can't handle eating too much, and besides, I have to eat sparingly."
Luo Xiu nodded.
The more capable the girl appeared, the more confident he felt about guiding her.
So far, the girl's performance has been impeccable.
The girl spoke first:
"There's still some time before ten minutes are up, please wait."
After saying that, the girl walked to the portrait by the fireplace.
She clasped her hands together in front of her chest and murmured softly, as if in prayer.
Luo Xiu wasn't interested in the content of the girl's prayer, but his greatly improved physique after advancing to the fourth rank still allowed him to hear some of her prayers:
"Tree, please pray that I will return safely this time. I'll soon have saved enough money to come find you..."
A boy and a girl deeply in love.
very nice.
Luo Xiu was filled with emotion.
His priority now is to send Miler to Kanriel, then deliver Old White's letter to the man named Tata, and then find a place with monsters to safely level up his stats.
Count Larry is still looking for him.
Although he carried the Twisted Crystal of Fate, Old White had also told him that beings of the fifth rank possessed unimaginable abilities, and might even be able to break through the Twisted Crystal of Fate to see him.
Once all these issues are resolved, perhaps I can finally take Leila and start traveling across this continent in peace.
"let's go."
After the girl finished praying, she turned to look at Luo Xiu:
"I still don't know how to address you, sir?"
"White."
Luo Xiu felt a bit strange; this was the first time since he transmigrated that someone had addressed him as "Mr."
"Mr. White."
The girl nodded, then held up three fingers and whispered:
"Although you are my employer, there are still three things I need to make clear to you."
"First, even with my guidance, it will take about eight or nine hours to get to Kanril. I am not in good enough physical condition to walk the whole way, so I may need to rest for a while when I get halfway there."
"Secondly, if I ask you to be quiet, it must be because I have encountered a very extreme situation. I hope you can understand and be quiet immediately."
"Third, and most importantly, you can't wander around on the road. You can only follow behind me, otherwise you might run into the demon bats."
"Please make sure you and your companion can do these three things."
Luo Xiu's scrutinizing gaze remained constant; seeing nothing amiss, he nodded.
"These conditions are all fine, but I'd like to ask, what is a Demon Bat?"
"It is a kind of demon."
The girl spoke first:
"It's the only type of monster that exists in Kanriel, and it's very dangerous."
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl saw excitement flash in Luo Xiu's eyes.
