Chapter 915 Hancheng
"Sir, we only accept copper coins in this town. You are outsiders and may not know this. You should go and exchange them for copper coins." The shopkeeper explained good-temperedly.
Yan Li and the others became even more curious after hearing this.
They were also sure that they had escaped from the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den.
"Okay, let's go exchange it." Yan Li and the others decided to see what the shopkeeper was up to.
So they got up and walked towards the copper coin exchange shop that the shopkeeper mentioned.
"We want to exchange copper coins." Yan Li walked in and saw an old man dozing off in front of the counter, so she walked over and said to him.
The old man slowly raised his head upon hearing this, and was startled when he saw Yan Li and the others.
"Girl, copper coins cannot be exchanged casually." said the old man.
"We are also helpless. Your town only wants copper coins. What else can we do if you don't exchange them?" Yan Li spread his hands helplessly.
"Girl, don't you know that copper coins are coins?" The old man looked at Yan Li seriously again.
Yan Li shook her head. She always felt that there was something wrong with this sentence.
"But we've already eaten, it wouldn't be right not to pay, right?" Yan Li said, looking at the old man.
"Alas... Who let you break in? Who let you eat other people's food? Well, I'll exchange it for you." After the old man said this, he exchanged copper coins for Yan Li and the others.
Yan Li looked at the copper coin in her hand, and a faint light flashed in her eyes.
They returned to the restaurant they had been to. When the restaurant owner saw that Yan Li and the others had indeed returned with copper coins, a trace of greed flashed across his eyes.
"Shopkeeper, here are a thousand copper coins." Yan Li handed the thousand copper coins in her hand to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the copper coin and suddenly burst into laughter.
"I received the copper coins, I received the copper coins, Town Master, please come out quickly, these people agreed to kill themselves to save my life." The shopkeeper shouted excitedly to the void while holding the copper coins.
Yan Li: ...
It turns out that the copper coin has the same meaning as "bi", which means to agree to kill.
As the shopkeeper shouted, people in the town came to watch.
They were talking about Yan Li and others.
Some were sighing at the shopkeeper's good luck that so many people were willing to help him survive.
Some people lamented that Yan Li and his friends were unlucky for breaking into their Tongbi Town, which was abandoned by the outside world.
They are even more despicable than the Soul Sacrifice Town.
"Are we entering Tongbi Town? Why didn't I react before?" Han Wen looked as if he had suddenly realized something.
In fact, it couldn't be blamed for his lack of reaction. Who could have thought that he would encounter the dreaded Soul Sacrifice Town and the creepy Tongbi Town in succession within two days?
"Miss Yan, it seems we can't escape this time. In this Tongbi Town, once we die, we will be bound by the rules. I never thought that they would use copper coins as a cover to trick us into dying." Han Wen said with a sigh.
"Who said that what I gave him were real copper coins?" After Yan Li finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
"What's going on? What happened? It was clearly a copper coin just now. How could it turn into ashes?" The shopkeeper went crazy when he saw the copper coins in his hand turned into a handful of ashes.
The onlookers sighed when they saw this!
They knew that the restaurant owner had been fooled by Yan Li and his friends.
"Are you kidding me?" The restaurant owner looked at Yan Li and the others with resentment in his eyes.
"So what if I'm playing tricks on you? We just want to eat your meal, but you want us to exchange our lives for it." Yan Li's tone was extremely cold.
"Li'er, what's going on?" Gu Shu on the side looked at Yan Li.
"It's true that we went to exchange copper coins just now, but I used talismans to conjure up those one thousand copper coins. If my guess is correct, the rules of heaven and earth must have a medium to take our lives, and copper coins are that medium." Yan Li explained.
"Now that the medium is gone, it can't take our lives." Gu Shu smiled when she heard this.
"Damn it... I'm going to kill you." Upon hearing that, the restaurant owner desperately rushed towards Yan Li and the others.
The restaurant owner was knocked away by Yan Li before he could pounce on her.
Then, in the horrified gaze of everyone, his whole body was engulfed in flames and finally turned into ashes.
Yan Li was also stunned when she saw this!
My kick wasn't that powerful.
"He has suffered a backlash. Using fake copper coins to fool the rules of heaven and earth will have serious consequences." Han Wen on the side spoke up.
"You deserve it." Gu Shu said.
Yan Li and the others looked around, and saw that everyone was looking at them with fear.
"Let's go." Yan Li said and walked out of the town.
I have to admit that my luck is really not good after entering these two fatal towns one after another.
When Yan Li and the others left, everyone in the town silently made way for them.
Yan Li and the others left Tongbi Town very smoothly.
After they left Tongbi Town, Tongbi Town disappeared from their sight again.
A town entrance appeared in front of them again, with the words Qingfeng Town written on it.
The entrance of the town was bustling with people coming and going.
"Are we still going in?" Gu Shu pointed towards the town and asked.
After all, they had been cheated twice in a row, and they had some psychological trauma towards these small towns.
"Why don't you just come with us to Hancheng? Hancheng is not far from here." Han Wen said.
"Or should we go home directly?" Gu Shu looked at Yan Li.
"After the commotion in Tongbi Town, it's getting late. Let's go to Hancheng to rest for a night before we leave." The ancient ancestor spoke.
"Then please come this way." After the ancient ancestor finished speaking, Han Wen led them towards Hancheng.
Before their faces darkened, Yan Li and the others successfully entered Hancheng.
Returning to the familiar place, Han Wen and everyone in the team breathed a sigh of relief.
They felt that this trip was not to gain experience and complete the mission, but to experience disaster.
"Miss Yan, why don't you stay at the City Lord's Mansion tonight?" Han Wen looked at Yan Li and the others.
"No need, we can just find an inn to stay in." Yan Li refused directly.
"Then at least let me help you arrange an inn?" Han Wen knew that if it weren't for Yan Li's help this time, they might not be able to leave the Rocky Forest alive.
"Okay." Yan Li accepted his kindness.
So Han Wen asked the other members of the team to go back, and he took Yan Li and the others to the largest restaurant in Hancheng.
After making arrangements for Yan Li and the others, Han Wen left in a hurry.
After all, a lot of people died this time, and he needs to give an explanation.
"There should be no problem this time, right?" After Han Wen left, Gu Shu looked around and said.
"Aunt Gu Shu, is she afraid of entering some weird place again?" Yan Li couldn't help laughing when she saw this.
"Shopkeeper, how do you calculate the cost of accommodation and meals here?" Yan Li stopped the shopkeeper and asked.
