My destiny is to go to work in a world that is collapsing

Hua Yi took Xia to buy furniture and daily necessities in a shopping street in a corner of the old city.

To be more precise, perhaps it is more appropriately called an open-air market.

Yae Town is well-known in the Far East. However, most of its prosperity is concentrated in the new town and its dark streets, leaving the old town somewhat forgotten.

In terms of the stability of order, the old city is not as good as the new city. In terms of the prosperity of commerce, the old city is not as good as the dark streets.

However, in this market in the old city, the more common products are better in quality and cheaper than in the other two places.

"Are you two new to Yae Town?"

When shopping for goods in Huayi, a vendor at the stall, a middle-aged woman who didn't seem to have anything special, asked this question.

Xia's eyes suddenly narrowed, and she secretly looked at the woman in front of her, thinking about whether the other party would They are intelligence agents from other forces.

"Um."

Compared to Xia, who was very sensitive, Hua Yi agreed very simply.

The middle-aged woman did not notice Xia's not obvious changes, because of the friendliness shown by the extraordinary temperament, Hua Yi showed a more genuine smile.

"Let me just say, if you two are really permanent residents of Yae Town, how come I don’t know about it at all. Although I am just a small trader, I am quite well-informed. It should be said that just because I am a small trader, I have to get as much information as possible."

"Well, I just came to Yae-machi not long ago and I am very curious about everything about this city. Can you introduce it to me? I want these things."

Hua Yi knew that people who do business like this definitely don't like free prostitution, so he immediately bought a few items that he could use and handed the money to the other party.

This was a big deal.

Although it wouldn't be said to be worth a few days. turnover, but it’s totally fine to spend some time introducing the city to this generous customer

"Even though Yae Town seems a bit out of line with the standards of a modern city, traditional wooden buildings are preserved in many places, which is proof of its rich history. You may not believe it, but our Yae Town has a history of hundreds of years. Well... I don't know the exact number."

The woman looked around, then pretended to be mysterious and spoke in a low voice to Hua Yi and Xia.

"Do you know the legend about the Lord of Yae Town and the Godly Priestess working together to defeat the evil fox that brought disaster to the world?"

"not sure"

"According to legend, hundreds of years ago, a demon fox caused chaos and wreaked havoc on the world. It was the city lord and a royal priestess at that time who defeated the demon fox and saved the people from the fire and water. You may not believe it, but that gentleman is the same person as the current city lord of Yae Town, it is the city lord Yunchen."

"？！"

Kasumi looked surprised.

This was not a pretense on her part, but a genuine shock from the bottom of her heart.

If what this middle-aged woman said is correct, the Lord of Yunchen City has lived for hundreds of years. Doesn’t it mean that he has been watching for a long time?

The woman was satisfied with Xia's surprise.

"In hundreds of years, although it has not changed drastically, it has changed a lot. This Yae Town used to be just Yae Village, right? Now it is well developed by the city lord and is quite famous in the far east."

"Didn't the city lord, who had lived for hundreds of years, attract some ulterior motives?"

"There should be many people like that, but as you can see, the city lord is still alive and well, and those who were watching are probably dead. Because of this, under the rule of the powerful Lord of the City, the chaotic Yae Town can still maintain order, and those of us doing business can also make some small money."

The woman paused for a moment, rested for a moment, and then continued to speak with joy.

"In fact, foreign guests like you will appear in Yae Town from time to time. Of course, those who are better than the two of you in appearance and temperament... Anyway, I have never seen them. In addition to the mystery of the castle lord himself, the underworld of Yae Town is also very famous, where criminals sell some shady but precious things."

"Black street……"

"That is to say, it never turns dark. Some of us call it a black street. The former is a more elegant name, claiming that it is brightly lit and does not have the bustle of the night. The latter is a common name. But you don’t need to worry too much. The underworld has been rectified and is now in good order. Bad things such as robbery and theft will not happen, but there are still many unknown people operating there."

As a ninja, his keen intuition told Xia that in addition to the secrets hidden by the immortal city lord, Nightless Sky may also have many secrets. In hundreds of years, Yunchen City Lord should be able to rectify the Nightless Sky and abandon it. Regardless of the reason, it’s not because you can’t spare more energy, right?

"Speaking of which, the underworld a few years ago... well, let's call it the Nightless Sky. You can't smear Yae Town in front of the two guests. A few years ago, there was a martial arts gym. The owner of the gym was really capable. Under her influence, martial arts became popular in Yae Town at that time. Unfortunately, it later closed for unknown reasons, bringing with it the people who came to Yae Town. There are also a little less tourists."

For a middle-aged woman doing business like this, the more guests who come to Yae Town, the better.

"Is that so... Excuse me, I'll go to other places."

Realizing that he had obtained enough information, Hua Yi took Xia and left the stall.

As a ninja, Xia originally wanted to take the initiative to take the responsibility of getting the items. After all, the ferryman obviously had other tasks. The destiny organization assigned the new task to Telling the ferryman, but not telling herself directly, would implicitly indicate that her position level is lower than that of the ferryman.

As for doubting the identity of the ferryman, Xia has completely given up such thoughts.

In the previous period of getting along with each other, , Xia had explored, either directly or indirectly, mentioned the Destiny Organization to the ferryman, and as a result, the other party had all kinds of secrets at his fingertips, as if he had countless treasures.

Xia has put aside doubts and inquiries, and just wants to share the burden for the superior. There was some pressure.

Unexpectedly, the ferryman did not accept it and still took the purchased goods by himself.

"Now, we are a couple. As a girl, you just have to go shopping."

"……"

Although the ferryman had suddenly wanted to pretend to be a couple with him before, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary afterwards and just kept holding hands.

The ferryman is not the type to be disliked, and this feeling of being cared for is also very good.
