Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 665 News from Xiaolei

Now Kong Zhe finally understands why the Temple of the Sun targets the Awakened so much.

They are not afraid of the awakened people from outside, but they are worried that after the end of the world, the penetration of magic power will turn the aborigines here into awakened people.

The power of the awakened ones has a natural advantage over those with higher abilities. If the awakened ones here are to form a large scale, it will definitely be an uncontrolled force, and it may overturn their rule.

Obviously the newly awakened people are probably the hope of these races, but these conservative races actually agree with the practice of the Sun Temple, really treat these people as heretics, and let others execute their compatriots to death. A kind of sadness.

"Don't worry, I don't believe this kind of statement. I know that you are all good people, and you are definitely not here to destroy the world..."

Seeing Kong Zhe's pensive look, the little fox quickly patted his chest to reassure him.

But then he lost his momentum, looked around, hesitated for a moment, covered his mouth with his hand, leaned over and asked in a low voice: "That's right? You really won't destroy this world, right?"

"certainly……"

Kong Zhe shrugged: "We are just looking for companions, we are not interested in this place, once we find someone, we will leave immediately."

——The premise is that if it really goes that smoothly...

Kong Zhe silently added in his heart.

There are still two kings in that city that never sleeps, and the battle between the kings is no joke.I just hope that the Temple of the Sun will not cause trouble, otherwise it will really be a situation where we have to fight head-on, and we don't know how it will be destroyed based on this not-so-big world.

"That's good!"

The little fox heaved a long sigh of relief.

"If you want to find a companion, go to this store and ask..."

The little fox pointed to a shop ahead.

Kong Zhe looked up and saw that this was a small building on the second floor, and there were faint knocking sounds coming from inside.

Judging from the signboard at the door, this should be an ironware shop.

"This is a shop opened by Grandpa Ji. He is well-informed and has a good temper. You can go in and ask him if he has seen your companions... Remember not to say that you are human beings."

"Oh……"

Kong Zhe nodded, just about to enter, he was stunned for a moment, and looked down to see that the little fox had already sat down on the steps in front of the door.

"What? You won't go in with us?"

"Ah, this... I, I don't have to go..."

The little fox visibly shrank its neck when he heard this, as if he was afraid of something.Then he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly raised his head and said: "By the way, you must not tell Grandpa Ji that you met me!"

Does this mean that you are afraid of being preached?
Kong Zhe nodded, and the three walked into the store together.

Passing through the somewhat low gate, the store is filled with layers of containers and sundries, making it extremely crowded.

Inside the house, a row of workbenches could be vaguely seen, and several apprentice-like animal figures were beating the iron blocks repeatedly on the workbenches filled with charcoal fire.

As soon as the three of them entered, they saw an old... man sitting behind the counter at the front desk?

It is said to be an old man, but it is actually a Xiasi dog wearing glasses, with a fluffy face, a beard and gray hair, and it is hard to tell whether it is its own color or the graying of old age.

This should be Grandpa Ji...

Kong Zhe thought in astonishment.

Looking at the person in front of him, Kong Zhe immediately thought of the one-legged fifth child. Since the fifth child was cured, he also has a hairy face, very similar to the person in front of him, except that one is a cat and the other is a cat. It's just a dog.

Speaking of which, didn't the little fox just say that there are cat people in this world?Could it be that the fifth child was originally from this world?
Shaking his head, Kong Zhe temporarily put aside these thoughts.The old man in front of him was squinting his eyes, looking at an old parchment scroll in his hand, looking at it so seriously that he didn't notice the arrival of the three of them.

"boss!"

Kong Zhe yelled, this time the old man finally came back to his senses, and slowly shifted his gaze to the three of them.

"Oh, is there a guest?"

The old man stood up from the chair and walked tremblingly in front of the three of them.

"These are unfamiliar customers, what do you need to buy?"

"Boss, we don't buy anything. I heard that you are well-informed. I want to ask you about a human being."

"Human? What kind of human?"

The old man spoke very slowly, and he uttered only a few words for more than ten seconds.

This person was not surprised by the fact that he was looking for humans, he seemed to have seen many humans.

"It's a girl, about this tall, with blue eyes and long ears..."

Kong Zhe introduced it again carefully as he had said to the little fox before.

In fact, to be precise, Xiaolei's appearance is not human, but elves, but people in this world have never seen elves, in their view, all those who look different from them will be classified as humans in the category.

"wait……"

Just as Kong Zhe was halfway through speaking, the old man interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"This guest, I have seen many human beings, but my old man has bad eyesight. In my opinion, they all look the same, with one nose, two eyes and one mouth. There is no difference, so I don't mind if you say that I don't know who you are looking for!"

"This……"

Kong Zhe was a little embarrassed.In other words, because this old man is a dog family, they usually rely on their noses to find people, and their eyesight is inherently poor, not to mention that this old man still looks... presbyopic?It is probably difficult to make him think of it based on description alone.

"Brother, give me that..."

This is Lily pulling his clothes aside and saying.

Kong Zhe was also familiar with Lily's habits, and immediately understood what she meant, and took out her drawing board and crayons from the ring.

"Look at me."

Lily smiled, held the drawing board with one hand and began to paint on it quickly.

After a while, a simple graffiti appeared on the drawing board.

"Grandpa, this is the man, have you seen him?"

"Uh……"

Kong Zhe couldn't help sweating wildly looking at the paintings on the drawing board.All the lines in this painting are crooked, and the colors are obviously smeared randomly. If it makes an art student think that he would jump into the river with anger, strictly speaking, this cannot be regarded as a portrait at all.

However, Lily is worthy of being a soul painter. Although she seems to have poor drawing skills, several features of the figure on the picture are exaggerated and marked, so that people can tell at a glance that this is Xiaolei, such as the pair of smart Ears, another example is the shy look, and the chest...

In short, it can only be said that the characteristics are captured very accurately, but the painting skills are really not flattering.He can see it himself, but this kind of painting, it should be difficult for people who are not familiar with it to recognize it...

"Lily, no matter what you say..."

Kong Zhe was just about to say something, but unexpectedly the old man gasped when he saw the painting, took the drawing paper and observed it carefully, then raised his head and said, "Oh, so it's this little girl."

"Have you seen it?"

Kong Zhe's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.

He didn't expect to be recognized like this. It seems that he really underestimated Lily's painting skills.

Kong Zhe couldn't help giving Lily a thumbs up behind his back.

"Humph."

Lily squinted her eyes proudly, she was always confident in her paintings.

"Well, I have seen this little girl once, but not in Fox Village, but in Cat Village."

The old man stroked his beard and said slowly.

"Cat Village?"

"Yes, I saw it when I went to deliver the goods a few days ago. I was just passing by, but this little girl seemed to have caused quite a stir in the cat village. I also took a look from a distance."

"Causing a stir? What happened?"

Kong Zhe's heart sank when he heard this.Although I don't know exactly what happened, but I heard the environment that Xiaohu just introduced. Xiaolei is an outsider and an awakened person. Once she attracts attention here, nothing good will happen.

"At that time, I just took a look at it from a distance, and I didn't know exactly what happened."

"That... this matter is very important to us, please be sure to recall it carefully."

Kong Zhe asked.

"This one……"

The old man scratched his head in embarrassment: "The cat village is different from our fox village. They have always been mysterious and generally don't like others to meddle in their business, so... oh, by the way, you can ask Old Smoker, I I remember he was there at the time, and he was still standing in the crowd, maybe he knew more."

"Old... old smoker?"

"What? You don't even know the smoker?"

As long as people in this world should know about the old smoker, the old man looked at Kong Zhe suspiciously.But when he saw the clothes on the three of them clearly, he suddenly froze for a moment.He leaned towards Kong Zhe and sniffed him.

"What, what's wrong?"

Kong Zhe felt a little twitching in his heart, the noses of this canine family are very sensitive... Could it be possible that he was seen as a human being?

"Guest, your clothes are made of good material!"

Just when Kong Zhe saw that the situation was not right and was about to flee, the old man suddenly said this.

"Ugh?"

"Well, well, this, this is really a rare material... Hey, the texture is also very good, guest, what material are you made of? Are you selling this robe?"

The old man seemed to get more and more excited the more he watched, and he got closer and closer, and even started to pull his clothes.

"This, it's not for sale...it's not something expensive..."

Kong Zhe took a step back calmly, while explaining, he quietly gestured to the two behind him.

Fortunately, the old man was very old, and it was extremely difficult to walk a few steps. The three of them took the opportunity to leave the shop quickly.

……

After the three of them entered the shop, the little fox sat on the steps against the wall and took a nap.

Five or six days have passed since he was caught by the Spider Queen, and then he drove for half a day, and he was already exhausted. At this time, when he returned to the village, in a safe environment, he almost closed his eyes. going to sleep.

"Oh!"

However, when he was drowsy, he was suddenly hit hard on the top of the head, which made him wake up immediately.

"Who's who?"

Not long ago, the little fox just walked before the gate of hell. Subconsciously thinking that he had encountered an enemy, he instinctively sprang up from the ground, quickly hid behind the stone statue on the steps, covered his head with his hands, and raised his tail high.
