American Comics: BOSS Invasion
#909 - Encounter 2
Qi Shan patted his head, the powerful force dispelling some of the dizziness. He slowly opened his eyes and saw an old man and a young boy staring at him with wary and curious gazes.
"My head is spinning!"
Qi Shan ignored them and continued to rub his temples, the sensation was quite unpleasant.
But the effect was equally powerful. Qi Shan felt as if his brain had suddenly become dual-core, able to multitask without any lag or interference.
It felt as if he had been sublimated, becoming some kind of higher-dimensional being, a very strange sensation.
Seeing Qi Shan make such a human-like gesture seemed to ease the old man's wariness somewhat. They still didn't approach, cautiously asking, "Young man, how are you? Where exactly did you come from? Why are you here?"
Qi Shan said, "You suddenly ask me that, and I don't know how to answer. I just inexplicably arrived here. By the way, old sir, what is this place?"
Before the old man could speak, the young boy interjected, "This is Windjoy City! Beyond that cliff is our Chicken Claw Village! Big brother, are you here for the Windjoy City exams? When I went to sell medicine last time, I heard people say that the Immortal Sects are starting to recruit disciples again."
"So recently, there have been many more people in the city, and the shops are doing good business. They even gave us extra deposit when we sold the medicine, telling us to collect a batch of herbs as soon as possible, saying that we'll definitely be able to sell them at a high price soon!"
The old man slapped him and glared.
Listen to you, child, why do you say everything? Didn't you see that Grandpa was trying to get information out of him? You hadn't even finished two sentences before you revealed all our secrets!
"Chicken Claw Village?"
Hearing this name, Qi Shan was stunned.
What were their ancestors thinking when they came up with this name? It's just too creative!
Wait, shouldn't my focus be on the Immortal Sect recruiting disciples?
"What sect is recruiting disciples?"
The young boy honestly replied, "I heard that it's the Puppet Sect's turn this time. The exam is in three days. Big brother, if you're here for that, you need to hurry!"
Qi Shan smiled, "Thank you for the reminder, or I really would have missed it! By the way, Windjoy City is just beyond this cliff, right?"
"Yes, beyond it is the back mountain. Just walk out of the forest, and you can directly reach it! Windjoy City is different from our villages. It's located within cliffs and surrounded by mountains. There's no way in or out. Ordinary people have no chance of getting in, except for people like us who climb over the cliffs, or those who are brought in by powerful people using teleportation arrays. Someone falling from the sky like you, big brother, is the first time I've ever seen it!"
The young boy honestly said.
The old man had already given up. He took out a two-foot-long pipe from his sleeve and started puffing on it.
This child is a bit too naive. All the examples of the wickedness of the human heart that I taught you, you can't remember a single one. Why do you tell everything you know as soon as you see someone?
Although he thought so, the old man also relaxed. Through simple contact, he had already seen that Qi Shan had really fallen here unintentionally and had no malicious intent.
Moreover, he had no aura around him, unlike those disciples of immortal sects he had seen from afar, but he definitely couldn't be an ordinary person either. In short, he was very strange!
In any case, he shouldn't pose a threat to our safety.
Reaching this conclusion, the old man also put his mind at ease.
Qi Shan talked with the young boy for a while longer, asking clearly what was in the city, what rumors there were about the recruiting sects, and what the position of this strange city was.
The young boy answered everything one by one. He said everything he knew, and only said he didn't know what he didn't know, which really allowed Qi Shan to gather a wave of information.
As the dizziness in his head gradually disappeared, Qi Shan also gradually woke up.
After the conversation ended, Qi Shan smiled and put down two large pieces of silver. He waved goodbye to the grandfather and grandson, slowly stood up, bent his legs slightly, and suddenly stomped hard. Then, they heard a dull thud from the ground. Qi Shan shot into the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The young boy widened his eyes, his face full of excitement.
The old man was stunned and froze there, the bowl of his pipe falling to the ground.
What's going on? Wasn't it said that he was just a strange person? How did he suddenly become an expert?
The old man shivered and secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately this silly boy had a fool's luck, answering everything he was asked, without hiding anything, otherwise, these two ingots of silver might have turned into something else.
Parting ways with the two, Qi Shan felt that his luck was pretty good. Although that teleportation token was a bit inexplicable, it actually threw him directly into the air!
It was only him. Anyone else would have been smashed into meat paste.
This shows that the ancestors were also very unreliable. The Great Qi Dynasty has been able to persist for so many years, thanks to the efforts of later generations.
He was still a bit lucky. If these two hadn't met him, Qi Shan would probably still be at a loss.
With a leap, he jumped over the hundred-meter-high cliff, gently tapped on a large rock, leaving a clear white dot, and then jumped down from the top of the mountain like a large bird.
Free-falling from top to bottom, as the speed became faster and faster, the energy in Qi Shan's body vibrated slightly, instantly covering the surface of his skin. Two huge wings suddenly opened behind him, composed of pure energy. With a slight change of angle, Qi Shan changed direction, rushing towards the distant gathering area like a missile.
Looking down from the air, this valley was indeed exceptionally beautiful.
It was surrounded by cliffs, the shortest of which was two or three hundred meters high. Although there were some bumps on the surface, it was impossible for ordinary people to climb up.
The area of the valley was not small, about the size of a small county town. It was surrounded by dense trees, and two small rivers could be clearly seen running through it, intersecting head-on from left and right, separating up and down, forming a cross, as if someone had deliberately built it.
The gathering place had a bustling cross street, and the residential area was scattered around this street like stars. The outermost circle was arranged with houses, and even the most ordinary houses looked very delicate.
The city was very lively. It wasn't even noon yet, and the streets were already crowded with people. Looking down from the sky, there was a dense mass of small black dots.
Qi Shan didn't fly for long. When he was about to reach the town, he suddenly retracted his wings, his figure flashed slightly, and he directly appeared in the dense forest.
He walked slowly out of the forest, naturally joining the crowd, and walked towards the central area of the town.
