Chapter 1225: Four Types of People (2)
Ye Qing looked at the peddler in front of him and said, "You can also walk around this place freely?"
The peddler nodded and said, "Yes, there are ten peddlers in this area. They were all selected later as highly talented individuals. Every peddler is very capable, including me!"
Ye Qing looked at him curiously and asked, "What is your cultivation level? Great Emperor?"
The peddler didn't answer, but said, "I don't know about other people, but if you ever encounter someone riding one of these strange beasts, just run away as fast as you can!"
"Our purpose in being is to wander around this place, selling things to the Eldar, and things... to those who are trapped," the peddler said. "However, the areas that the ten of us are responsible for are not all the same."
Ye Qing silently memorized it.
"The third type of person is the warden you mentioned, but here he's called an angel. Each of these angels is incredibly powerful; they are born from the rules and cannot be killed, only severely injured," the peddler said. "However, these divine messengers generally don't get involved, but remember, the places where divine messengers reside contain immense opportunities. If you encounter a divine messenger and have the ability to deal with him, then you can search the vicinity and you're sure to obtain a great fortune!"
"Of course, if you encounter such an angel, I suggest you find a good position to lie down," the peddler said.
"Why?" Ye Qing asked.
"It'll be a little more comfortable to die this way," the peddler said.
Ye Qing was speechless.
Indeed, he was far inferior to the so-called Great Emperor; he didn't even have the right to breathe in front of the divine messenger.
"Besides these three types of people, there is a fourth type!" the peddler said.
Ye Qing looked at the peddler.
“These people are like you, outsiders, but they don’t come from the same place,” the peddler said.
"Hmm?" Ye Qing asked, somewhat puzzled, "What does this mean?"
"That's not important!" the peddler said. "These kinds of people can also roam freely like you. They usually come here looking for opportunities. They come from all walks of life, but they are generally no lower than a Venerable. If you encounter someone lower than a Venerable who enters this place, run away immediately, because such a person must have an extremely powerful protector behind them!"
"These are the four types of people in this place!" the peddler said. "And what you said about day and night does indeed have a difference. For various reasons, most people dare not come out during the day; they cannot withstand the power of the rules here. But nighttime is their time to be active. If you encounter people during the day, there are only two types: one is the outsider I just mentioned, and the other..."
At this point, the peddler said, "The other type is an existence that is incomparably powerful. Of course, in the place I'm going to now, there are only three such people. If you encounter such a person and he is hostile to you, you can think of a more comfortable way to die."
Ye Qing took a deep breath. This kind of person was like Yu, like the old lady he had met before, and the peddler's mother in front of him.
After hearing the peddler's description, Ye Qing finally gained some understanding of the area.
In fact, whether it was Long Xuan or the person who carved the words on the bridge, their understanding of this world also stemmed from the space they inhabited. It wasn't that Long Xuan didn't explain it to Ye Qing directly, but rather that her understanding was not as complete as that of the peddler.
After understanding the situation, Ye Qing pondered for a moment and asked, "Senior, I have a question: Is there a way to leave this place?"
“Of course!” the peddler said. “Those outsiders who come to this place for training have a way to leave! It’s just that they end up back where they came from.”
"And what about us?" Ye Qing asked.
The peddler pondered for a moment and said, "There should be some, but I don't know for sure. However, someone should look into it!"
At this point, he looked at Zhang Heng, who was still lying on the ground, and asked, "What is your relationship with Zhang Tianlin?"
Ye Qing's expression shifted, and he asked, "You know Zhang Tianlin?"
The peddler nodded and said, "Of course I know, but his situation isn't too good right now. I estimate that in a hundred years at most, he will either become completely polluted, or... he will die!"
"Huh?" Ye Qing looked at the peddler in shock and asked, "He's still alive?"
The peddler looked at Ye Qing and the others with suspicion and said, "This kid has the ability to observe qi. Aren't you descendants of Zhang Tianlin?"
Ye Qing swallowed hard, looking at Zhang Heng with a deep frown.
Zhang Heng wasn't telling the truth!
He said he came to this place to seek Zhang Tianlin's legacy, to inherit the legacy of the Great Emperor.
Ye Qing believed this wholeheartedly.
The inheritance of the Great Emperor, and the fact that it was the Great Emperor of their clan, made it truly worth the risk.
He has mentioned more than once that after receiving the inheritance, he was willing to give Ye Qing and his clan that ancient book!
However, if Zhang Tianlin were still alive, the situation would be different. If Zhang Heng and the others knew, then their purpose in coming here from the beginning was probably not for the inheritance of the Great Emperor, but to save him.
If a living emperor were to appear before you, then... there would be far too many uncertainties.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing looked at Zhang Heng and said, "He is a descendant of Zhang Tianlin. In a way, I was tricked into coming here by him!"
The peddler looked at Ye Qing with slight surprise, as if he could see through Ye Qing's thoughts, and said, "Zhang Tianlin has bought a lot of things from me, but he's broke now. However, from my interactions with him, he seems like a decent person and wouldn't do anything to you. Of course, with the passage of time, I don't know what he's like now. After all, the last time I saw him, he was in pretty bad shape!"
"You mean, he might know the way out?" Ye Qing asked.
The peddler nodded and said, "He was trapped here for many years. I met him once, and he said goodbye to me, saying he was about to leave, but somehow he couldn't get out!"
Ye Qing pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhang Heng again, his mind racing.
He felt as if he were trapped in a dead end.
If he wanted to leave, he had to rely on Zhang Tianlin, so he had to go with Zhang Heng and the others to search for him.
It seemed he had no way to leave Silent Hill unless he took this route.
But once Ye Qing went to find the other party, her fate was no longer in her own hands, and this feeling was quite unpleasant.
