——My boss took me to do dangerous things for his own benefit, and later didn't pay me, and even abandoned me. But the enemy spared my life, and if he gave me some benefits later...

"So what did you take, Chaimen?"

"That... I don't know. I only know that the Fatui, as the adults are talking about, are buying this at a high price. I'll take the adults over to see it, and maybe we'll know."

Immediately, Ichiro Shibamon took Li Mo to a secluded corner and opened the contents of the box.

The box was full of purple-white crystals, but when Li Mo saw this thing, he could feel that there was something hidden inside.

"Crystallized bone marrow. Is that what it is?"

If Li Mo remembered correctly... the Fatui's evil eyes needed this kind of thing. This material was the legacy of the demon god after his death.

So……

"Chaimen, what are you going to do with these things?"

"My idea is to tell the captives a small part of it and tell them that they can sell it to the Fatui at a high price. I will sell the rest to the Fatui in exchange for money. Most of it will be given to you, sir." said Ichiro Shibamon.

Li Mo paused and said, "Chai Men, you didn't tell me the whole story. After you learned the value of crystallized bone marrow, you deliberately stole this box of crystallized bone marrow, didn't you?"

He looked at Ichiro Shibamon's slightly immature face and asked.

Chapter 84: Toss and Turn

Shibamon Ichiro is a smart man. He values ​​the feelings of his subordinates, the nobushi, and is an excellent leader. If I were him, I would be willing to be with such a leader.

As for himself, a person who was stronger than him, Shibamon Ichiro also acted very measuredly and gave himself enough respect.

Regarding the explanation of the matter, his story was very complete. However... Li Mo was very familiar with the Spring and Autumn style of writing.

Just briefly mention the key points and focus on other areas.

Li Mo looked at the other person's cheek under the firelight, as if wondering why.

"Sir, you are really smart. Indeed, I was impulsive at that time because I knew the high value of this thing.

Thinking about it now, I should have done nothing wrong at that time. Sir, when I found out, my first thought was that if I could get this thing and sell it, then my brothers and I would not have to be in the wild.

My Lord, the life of the noboru people is not good. It seems very free, but they have to run around for food all day, fight with the hillbillies, watch out for the slimes that attack, and occasionally compete with the treasure-stealing group. "

Shibamon Ichiro spoke in a low voice, his tone a little choked. Past memories flowed in his mind, and only a few dry words came out: "Sir, I told you that I robbed a caravan. In fact, there was no other way. If I didn't do that, I would probably starve to death."

Li Mo knew this story, because the other party told him that they attacked the caravan, took away some supplies, and did not kill anyone.

Li Mo said: "If you don't want to be a wild ambush, then what are you doing?"

"Maybe going home. Everyone hasn't been home for several years..."

"Is it okay to be direct?"

"It doesn't matter. The people of Tenryo Bugyo have no idea who we are. In the eyes of the bigwigs of Tenryo Bugyo, we are just lice. They would rather send foot soldiers to the sea to implement the isolation order than to send people to fight us in the wild."

Ichiro Shibamon explained the facts.

Li Mo couldn't comment on this kind of thing. He had just come to this world and relied on only the broken knowledge in his mind, but this was a real world. What would happen? What would happen? What would happen?

I don't know at all.

"Actually, I'm just asking. Chaimen, if you have such thoughts, I won't object. It is the instinct of living things to seek a good life for themselves." Li Mo said, "I don't need most of it. You can keep some of the Mora that is sold. But I want to keep a few crystallized marrows in my hands."

Crystallized bone marrow, if my memory is correct, the raw material of the evil eye is this thing. The function of the evil eye is to squeeze out vitality in exchange for power.

worthy of study.

Li Mo knew that three of his six attributes were stuck. If he wanted to increase his points further, he needed to take the initiative to move from the ordinary to the extraordinary.

Even if you can't research anything now, you may need it in the future.

"Thank you, sir."

"Don't thank me yet. When the time comes, I hope to follow you to Konda Village. You know, I have no place to stay in Inazuma."

Li Mo told Shibamon Ichiro his name, which was not like the name of Inazuma. Shibamon Ichiro certainly understood this, and he nodded and said, "I know, sir."

Li Mo watched Shibamon Ichiro leave.

At this point, the trust between the two sides has risen to a higher level.

But Li Mo lowered his head, thinking about something.

I haven't dealt with people for two or three years, but it seems that my sensitivity in this area has not dropped to zero.

Li Mo thought with his eyes narrowed.

……

……

Ichiro Shibamon was a man of his words, and almost the next day, during the day, he acted according to the plan and handed over a small portion of the crystallized bone marrow to the captured Nobushi, and told them that they could get a large sum of money in exchange for it if they were sold to the Fatui.

A little bit of rice is a favor, a big bit of rice is a grudge. At this time, you should not give too much. Giving a little is pity, but giving too much will make the other party have undesirable thoughts.

Then, in the afternoon, Ichiro Shibamon organized everyone and left Renren Island together.

Narukami Island is very big.

——Maybe it’s much larger than the map in the game.

This was Li Mo's thought when he saw the coastline of Ming Shen Island. There were not many reefs on the coast, and quite a few beaches could be seen. Of course, there were also slimes along the beaches.

Dock and kill all the slimes. Collect all the remaining slime essences, which can be sold.

The Nobushi people could not enter Inazuma Castle. But in the wild, there were often black market merchants who came to exchange resources with the Nobushi people. Necessary goods such as salt were obtained from these merchants. Even the supplies that Shibamon Ichiro and others robbed last time were sold through these merchants.

The black market speaks for itself.

"Do you know where the Fatui trades, Chaimen?"

"Sir, it's in the desert sea. After we hide the ship, we will pass along the coastline."

Li Mo looked at the cliff next to him. It was indeed difficult to climb up from here. But if he walked in the opposite direction for a while, there would be a smooth path up.

But he did not choose that road, but preferred to take a detour along the wet coast, passing a building similar to a door.

Shibamon Ichiro whispered to Li Mo: "There are many relic mechanisms here. Not to mention the Nobushi, even the Kairanki are no match for those relic mechanisms. So sir, we have to be careful when walking here. This is also the reason why we don't go to the desolate sea. There are relic mechanisms patrolling there."

Li Mo nodded in agreement. There were quite a few wild monsters in the desolate sea. He felt a little annoyed when he was exploring the land. The narrow terrain also restricted him to defeating the ruins before he could complete the mission.

As they moved along the coastline, they encountered a group of treasure thieves. Both sides were wary of each other and got along peacefully.

Li Mo glanced at the short and thin man from the Treasure Stealing Group from the corner of his eye. He was thinking about a question. This organization existed all over the continent. Why were they all collectively called the Treasure Stealing Group?

This world is more interesting than he imagined.

The transaction with the Fatui went smoothly. The Fatui didn't care who brought the crystallized bone marrow. They just needed the crystallized bone marrow.

After exchanging the money, everyone found a place to divide the money. Then they entered the Guardian Forest from the foot of the Shadow Mountain. Here, everyone changed from a group of wild people to ordinary Inazuma people.

Li Mo also changed into the same outfit and went to Konda Village with Ichiro Shibamon.

Chapter 85: The Shibamon Family

Konda Village is located in the north of the White Fox Wilds. If you want to go to Inazuma Castle from the outlying island, you must pass through here. It can be said to be an important transportation route.

But now, what Li Mo saw was more like a retirement village, with few young people moving around here.

"The eldest son of the Shibamon family is back."

"You've been hanging around out there for a few years, but you're finally back."

……

When Shibamon Ichiro was walking in the village, many people recognized him. Most of them were elderly people, of course there were some young people, but they were all children who were seven or eight years old, or even three or four years old. These children followed behind the two of them, and the older children recognized Shibamon Ichiro, but the younger children were more confused.

Li Mo patted the little kids' heads and smiled at them gently. The kids also smiled at him, a tall man.

We have arrived at Chaimen’s house.

Perhaps the noise made along the way startled the two of them. At the door of Shibamon's house stood two old people, with white hair and looking to be in their sixties or seventies. They seemed to be Shibamon Ichiro's grandparents.

"Father, mother, I'm back."

Ichiro Shibamon looks to be in his twenties at most, while his parents don't look like they are in their thirties or forties at all.

——Getting old too fast.

Li Mo came to visit as a friend that Shibamon Ichiro had made outside.

After entering the house, Shibamon Ichiro saw that there was no one else around, so he asked, "Where's Jiro?"

"I'm working in the fields. Jiro will be back soon. I'm sure he'll be happy to see you back. Come on, Ichiro, and this gentleman, just sit down."

"Actually, I'm just Ichiro's friend." Li Mo responded to what Shibamon's father said.

The other shook his head and said, "Sir, you are not much like us."

"Too fair?" Li Mo vaguely guessed that he was different from them in some way.

The biggest difference is skin. People who grew up in modern society have very fair skin. In this era, they are like children that can only appear in noble families.

The father of the Chaimon nodded and said, "That's it, sir."

This was an episode in the middle of the journey. Before coming here, Shibamon Ichiro and Li Mo had already thought that their identities would be exposed. Li Mo's behavior habits were very different from those of the local people in Inazuma, so the two of them discussed it and made up a background for Li Mo.

"Guests from Liyue? But I remember that outsiders should be on the outlying islands." Chai Menmu thought.

Shibamon's father said, "People from foreign chambers of commerce are active on the outlying islands. Aren't there still foreign scholars active in Inazuma Castle? But their scope of activities is restricted. I learned all this when I was chatting with that old man Imaya."

"Imatani? Is that Uncle Imatani? By the way, what is Jiayou doing now?" asked Ichiro Shibamon.

"Jiayou, he joined the Tianling Bughang. I also wanted you to join the Tianling Bughang, but you! Why did you run away without saying a word?" Chaimen's father looked as if he was disappointed in his son.

Chaimen's mother said, "Dad, please don't say such things. It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"

The two old men kept asking Shibata how he was doing outside. Shibata just kept saying, "Okay, okay, he's doing fine outside."

——If I hadn’t shown up, Ichiro Shibata might have died on Renren Island... But inexplicably, Li Mo agreed with what Ichiro Shibata said.

When a wanderer returns from a foreign land, he will certainly not tell his parents how hard his journey was. He will only tell his parents about his achievements while away from home, reporting good news but not bad news.

During this communication, Li Mo learned the names of Ichiro Shibamon's parents. His father was Katsumi Shibamon and his mother was Eri Shibamon.

Ichiro Shibamon also has a younger brother named Jiro Shibamon.
