The slum area is very wide, almost occupying more than half of the area of ​​Xicheng. There are hundreds of large and small slums scattered here.

certainly.

Not all slums are slums.

The existence of slums is just to provide a place to live for some homeless, or penniless, or incapable, or who have lost hope in life and have given up on themselves.

Civilians who are really capable and skilled live in areas with relatively better environments, such as villages, neighborhoods, or gathering places sheltered by certain local forces or powerful spirit masters.

Even so, the order in these areas is only slightly better than that of the slums.

Fighting, fighting, looting, etc., are still everywhere.

After all, slums are already barren, resources are scarce, and the population is large, with more wolves and less meat, it will naturally give rise to disorder and chaos.

In the slums, the two most important things are money and food.

Money can buy food, and food can fill you up and keep you alive.

Only by surviving first will there be a chance to consider other things.

So people in the ghetto fight or kill each other, usually for these two things.

This is especially true of money.

Food should not be kept and can be bought at any time.

Although the slums lack food, it is still available.

And money is different.

Money is easier to store and will not deteriorate. Whether it is gold soul coins, silver soul coins, or copper soul coins, they are all hard currency.

As long as you have money, you can buy it, whether it's food or anything else.

So the temptation of money is even greater.

In a place like the slum, if you have money on your body, don't let others know, otherwise it will definitely attract others.

It is the same regardless of age or gender.

......

Soon.

Ye Qifeng took Qian Renxue to a block after passing through a slum again.

The living environment in this block is slightly better than that of the slums. Although most of the people live in tents, it looks much more orderly and less chaotic.

These people are civilians with some ability or skill. Although their lives are poor, at least they have hope, which is much better than the people in the slums.

Many of them lived in the dilapidated houses on both sides of the street. It seemed that they had some identity in this block, or people with special abilities, such as soul warriors with soul power.

Facing the curious eyes of the surrounding civilians, the two walked through the street as if nothing had happened.

Ye Qifeng's face was calm, and he had long since seen nothing wrong. His mental power swept past him at will, and he didn't notice any danger, so he stopped paying too much attention.

Qian Renxue's expression was also calm as water. She followed Ye Qifeng side by side, as if she had learned the skill of the latter's calmness, but in fact, she was already a little numb, and gradually got used to those curious eyes.

Seeing the neat clothes on the two of them, their good temperament, and the imposing aura of deterrence, someone who lived in the small house was awe-inspiring, and immediately sent a message to the residents of the block, warning everyone not to hit the two of them.

So nothing happened.

soon.

Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue passed through the neighborhood where the civilians gathered, and came to a deserted street around the corner.

Turning her head to look at Qian Renxue, Ye Qifeng saw a bit of exhaustion on her beautiful face.

After pondering for a while, he realized that the impact on Qian Renxue's mind from the slum area seems to be a little big, and it made her feel a little tired.

Looking up at the sky, the weather was still gloomy, with only the clouds in the west, and a bit of bright white reflected in the gray darkness. It was already afternoon.

Ye Qifeng thought about it and said to Qian Renxue:

"Xue Er, let's go back."

Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment and asked:

"Aren't you going to visit?"

"No more shopping."

Ye Qifeng shook his head gently, and said warmly, "I have a general understanding of the situation in this urban area, and other places are not too bad, there is nothing good-looking."

Saying that, Ye Qifeng looked at her with a softer tone:

"I see that you are a little tired, go back and have a good rest first."

"So you're caring about me."

Qian Renxue's heart warmed, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and the fatigue on her face suddenly dissipated a lot.

Then she nodded lightly and said softly:

"Then go back."

......

After negotiating.

The two immediately quickened their pace, passed through the deserted streets, and prepared to rush back in the direction of Liu Erlong's house to the east.

Just when the two walked to the intersection of the street.

Sudden.

There were four children approaching.

The children were not very old, between seven and ten years old, and they were not well dressed. They were the same coarse clothes as most commoners, which looked a little loose and worn out.

The child walking in front was nearly 1.3 meters tall, and his skin showed a bit of wheat color.

The hair is not long, it can dangle down to the shoulders, but the color of the hair is very special, and the silvery gray is full of purple.

What attracted the most attention was the pair of eyes, which turned out to be blue and green, as clear as amber, big and bright, and extremely conspicuous.

The age of the silver-gray-haired child should be about seven or eight years old, and he can't tell the gender for the time being, so let's pretend he is a boy.

The skin color of the other three children is slightly different from that of the first child, and they appear a little dark.

Walking behind the silver-gray-haired child was a boy with short black hair. He was a little over 1.3 meters tall and looked over nine years old.

The two people who followed behind were about 1.4 meters tall, about ten years old, and their hair was a bit messy, not as dry as the first two children.

The stature of the four children is a little thin, and their complexions are also slightly yellow. It is obvious that they are all malnourished.

However, the child walking in front, although thin, has a slender arm with a hint of muscle outline. It seems to be in the best physical condition and the strongest among them.

The silver-gray-haired child was the shortest and the youngest, but the other three were vaguely headed by him, looking like the little leader among several children.

"The kid in front seems to be interesting."

Looking at the oncoming children, Ye Qifeng smiled and suddenly said something.

"Huh? Xiaofeng, are you referring to the silver-gray-haired child?"

Qian Renxue also noticed.

"Don't you think his eyes are rare?"

Ye Qifeng asked with a smile.

"It's really beautiful. It turned out to be blue and green, so clear, so translucent, like a gem. If he is a girl, he must be very charming with such a pair of eyes."

[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Wild Fruit to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by Android and Apple. 】

Qian Renxue also commented.

Seeing that they were about to pass by a few children, the two stopped talking, smiled and looked at the silver-gray-haired child, and nodded at him at the same time.

A few children who walked into the street naturally found Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue.

Looking at the two people with extraordinary momentum.

A few children trembled slightly, some surprised and some scared.

Especially the three people in the back, when they saw strangers entering this block, they instinctively felt fearful, and they didn't dare to let out the air.

The silver-gray-haired child seemed much calmer.

She, yes, she was actually a girl.

It's just that because of her young age, the loose clothes she wears, and the smudges on her face, she can't tell her gender.

Although they are all orphans, unlike the other three, she is not a local resident of the slum.

The girl was originally from a family of knights in the empire, but her family declined and her relatives died one after another, leaving her alone as a young orphan.

Two years ago, he lived in the Tiandou slum area. A year ago, he awakened his martial arts with the help of the Spiritual Hall. Because of his innate spirit power, he became a spirit warrior and was absorbed into this neighborhood.

With good physical fitness, smart and wise mind, and a fierce and loyal style, she soon became the little leader of several orphans of the same age in the block.

"These two are so pretty!"

The moment she saw Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue, the girl couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.

She is still young and doesn't want to come up with too many adjectives, so this exclamation is a bit simple.

After she was amazed, she thought quickly and secretly guessed the identities of the two:

"Are they... are they big people from outside?"

She found that the momentum of the two people on the opposite side seemed to be similar to the big people she had seen in Mohu's memory, and they didn't look like people from the slums.

And from the two of them, she didn't feel any dangerous breath.

On the contrary, what she felt was kindness and kindness.

This made her feel a little relieved, at least not having to worry about the two of them attacking the four of them.

The girl calmly took the three little friends and continued to walk into the deserted street. At the same time, her eyes always fell on the faces of the two people on the opposite side. Although it was very impolite, for some reason, she couldn't help it, thinking about it. Take a few more glances.

Because the two adults on the opposite side feel really good, just like the gentle big brother and big sister, at least that's how she feels at the moment.

Just as the two sides crossed each other.

The girl suddenly saw that the big brother with black hair and black eyes on the opposite side gave her a bright smile and nodded to her, as did the beautiful big sister with blond blue boy next to him.

The girl suddenly widened her eyes, a little flattered.

At this moment, the smiles of the two of them fell into the girl's eyes, and they were so warm and kind, very like their former family members.

After the two sides staggered, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at the two of them.

"Ruiwen, do you know those two people?"

After Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue walked over, the boy with short black hair next to the girl let out a long breath and asked in a low voice.

The boy's name is Xiaoliu and he has no surname.

The girl's name, as the boy called it, was Raven, and she also had no last name because she couldn't remember it.

"do not know."

When Rui Wen heard the question, she looked away and shook her head.

"Who are they, they appeared here dressed so well, and they weren't robbed?"

Xiao Liu asked again in surprise.

"Maybe a big man came in from outside."

Rui Wen pondered for a while, then guessed, "They should be soul masters."

"The kind that is very powerful." After a pause, she added.

"Soul, Soul Master? Very powerful?"

Xiao Liu immediately opened his mouth and exclaimed. He never doubted Rui Wen's judgment, and the other two companions were also a little dumbfounded.

"No wonder no one dares to mess with them."

Xiao Liu said clearly, and then sighed with emotion:

"If only we were as strong as them!"

Ruiwen's face darkened when she heard the words. She should have had the opportunity to grow into a powerful soul master, but unfortunately...

Her spirit is a waste spirit.

"However, I will not give up. No matter what, I must become a soul master."

For a moment, Rui Wen clenched her fists, her little heart filled with determination.

"Stop talking about this, let's save Xiao Qi first."

Rui Wen regained her mind and stroked her chest, which bulged slightly, as if there was something hidden.

"Chengxin, that turtle grandson!"

Hearing Rui Wen's words, Xiao Liu's face suddenly became ugly, his voice was a little higher, and he said cursingly:

"It's okay to bully the small, but if you can't beat you, you have caught Xiao Qi with a sly trick, and asked us to take money to redeem it."

"What a dog thing!"

Cheng Xin was a gangster in the next block. He was eleven years old. Like Xiao Liu, he was a spirit warrior and led five or six ordinary people of the same age.

Cheng Xin is a man who bullies the soft and fears the hard, and chooses people who are younger and weaker than him to rob and bully.

Xiao Liu and the others were bullied and robbed by him a lot, until Rui Wen awakened her martial spirit and became a spirit warrior, and beat him hard, and then she calmed down.

But recently, I don't know where Cheng Xin got the news, and knowing that Rui Wen has private savings, he used a trick to capture his companion Xiao Qi, in order to threaten Rui Wen with money to redeem people, otherwise they would not let them go.

This is the reason why a few of them came to this uninhabited street, because this is the place where the two parties agreed to redeem people.

Seeing that Rui Wen's face was also a little ugly, Xiao Liu restrained himself, sighed, and asked:

"Ruiwen, that money is your hard-earned savings for more than a year, and you kept it to ask someone to help you hunt for the spirit ring. If you use it to redeem Xiaoqi, what will you do with your spirit ring in the future?"

Ruiwen pursed her lips, a little reluctant, but finally said:

"Let's redeem people first, and ask people to help hunt for spirit rings, and we'll talk about it later."

Xiao Liu murmured a few times, but in the end he didn't say any more.

The two who stood behind and didn't speak, shrugged helplessly, and there was no good way.

After all, Xiao Qi was their companion, so she definitely couldn't give up.

To redeem Xiaoqi from Chengxin, money is needed, and now, only Ruiwen has a little savings, and the three of them are penniless, and they can't even collect a copper soul coin.

At this time, Xiao Liu couldn't help but fight for Rui Wen, and said loudly:

"Speaking of which, Rui Wen, you are obviously a genius with innate soul power. The person who awakened your martial soul for you at the beginning decided to say that your martial soul is a waste martial soul. He really blinded him!"

"Where in this world is there a waste martial spirit with innate soul power? Anyway, I don't believe it."

"That's right, if it wasn't for Rui Wen's martial spirit being judged to be a waste spirit, he would have obtained a spirit ring and become a spirit master."

The other two also agreed.

Ye Qifeng and Qian Renxue, who had already left the street for some distance, suddenly stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and said in surprise:

"Innately full of soul power?!"
