Following the man's line of sight, Nan Xiao saw several clear red marks on his wrist.

The young man's skin was fair, and the part of his wrist was extremely slender. The red marks strangled by the hemp rope and the few blood stains after the skin was worn out were particularly glaring.

He shrank his hands back subconsciously: "I'm fine, it's just a small injury, and I'll be fine soon."

The man nodded slightly, walked up to the two goblins lying on the ground, and dragged them into a corner.

Nan Xiao went over to lend a helping hand, sharply seeing a few apples in the pocket of the man's clothes.

"Has Zai Zai been sent to a safe place by the system again?"

"Ah."

"But this time I didn't receive any system notification."

"Maybe there's something wrong with the system—someone is coming."

Nan Xiao was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes and bumped into the other's dark golden pupils, and was led into an alley by someone gently pulling his wrist the next moment.

The alley is very narrow, and there is only a pile of dead wood to hide in.

One person can barely pass, but if two people are side by side, they must walk sideways.

"There are people coming from both sides, we have to hide here."

A low, hoarse voice rang softly in his ears.

"You go into the woodpile first."

Nan Xiao lowered his head and bent down to get into the woodpile. Just when he was about to turn around, he heard the sound of footsteps from far and near and the shouts of goblins. Before he could move, he felt a warm touch behind him. .

His face was facing the wall, and there were branches of dead wood all around him, and his skin would be scratched by the branches if he was not careful.

The line of sight is very unclear due to the obstruction of the light, and almost only the mottled patterns on the wall can be seen.

The more blurred your vision, the sharper your other senses become.

The man seemed to have entered the woodpile too, but the space inside was very small, and the man was tall and tall, so he could barely hide by sticking to him.

Nan Xiao lowered his head, the back of his neck was icy cold by the cool wind, only the place sprayed by the man's deep breath was horribly hot.

The footsteps of the goblins were getting closer, and it sounded like there were a lot of people. Although they had restored the door of the cellar, the two fainted goblins did not hide well and were easy to find.

He moved as far as possible towards the wall and whispered.

"Would you like to come closer?"

There was a moment of silence behind him.

"Okay, sorry."

Nan Xiao's back was firmly attached to the opponent's chest, and he could almost feel the outline of the thin muscles.

The man's slender hands clenched into fists and pressed against the wall, almost embracing him in his arms.

The sound of breathing was clearly audible, and even the silver hair scattered on the other's forehead gently swept over his neck, making him itchy and hot.

This posture is too strange...

Nan Xiao blushed.

It's as if a couple are doing something indescribable...

"Feel sorry."

The other party apologized again, his voice was a little tense, and he seemed very unaccustomed to such intimate actions with others.

"That human must have knocked out the guard and ran away!"

"Damn it, the silver dragon hasn't been found yet, this human ran away again—"

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and look for it! That human shouldn't have run far away, so I asked everyone to search carefully. If news of our capture of the Dragon Clan spreads, everyone should know the consequences!"

The goblins chatted for a while, and soon dispersed.

Don't come here, don't come here...

Nan Xiao was meditating in his heart, his palms pressed against the seams of his trousers were already sweating.

There were two footsteps gradually approaching in their direction, Nan Xiao couldn't help trembling.

"Don't be afraid, it will be fine." The man's voice was so low that he could hardly hear him, and he touched the back of his hand soothingly, "Don't move."

"If the goblin sees it, I will take care of it, as long as you don't make a sound."

Nan Xiao gave an "um" and added another sentence.

"Can you stun a goblin, let's take him to a safe place, I have something to ask the villagers here."

"it is good."

The voices of the two goblins came close in a blink of an eye.

"How did you say that human escaped..."

"Who knows, this is going to be a big trouble. The Dragon Clan that escaped is a silver dragon. I heard that silver dragons have a very noble status in the Dragon Clan."

"...Do you feel that there is something hidden in that woodpile?"

"how is this possible--"

The restraint behind him was loosened abruptly, and after a sound of firewood falling to the ground, Nan Xiao suddenly turned around, and saw that the two goblins had already been knocked out with their mouths covered.

The two goblins looked like half-grown children. Converted to human age, they were probably junior high school students.

"Take away the older one. The system sent me a task to investigate what happened in this village. I found that only the elderly and children stayed in the village. The young and middle-aged were not there, and they hated the Dragon Clan very much. There must be something wrong here."

"Well. Let's find an abandoned empty house first. There are goblins everywhere outside the village, including people patrolling the jungle outside. If we want to stay and investigate, we can only stay in the village."

Nan Xiao quickly followed the man out of the alley.

The man seemed to be very familiar with the village. After leading him around a few corners, he pushed open a wooden door and beckoned him to go in.

"This place has been searched by goblins, and they won't come back for a while."

Nan Xiao pointed to the unconscious goblin on the ground: "When will he wake up?"

"An hour at most—is there any water?"

"Oh, yes." Nan Xiao hurriedly bought a bottle of pure water from the system mall and handed it over, "Hurry up and drink—"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the man pour a bottle of water onto the little goblin's face expressionlessly.

The unconscious goblin suddenly struggled to sit up from the ground.

"Who, who—you, you—"

The little goblin stared wide-eyed in horror, staring at the man's short silver hair and golden pupils.

"You you you, you are, you are—uh—"

Han Yuan squinted his phoenix eyes slightly, and before the goblin could say anything, he suddenly reached out and grabbed his neck.

There is a wisp of frost wrapped around the fingertips, which can condense into deadly ice needles at any time.

"Don't say what you shouldn't say, just answer what you are asked, if you yell again, you will turn into a corpse before they find you, do you hear me clearly?"

Nan Xiao pursed his lips, the man's voice was not as gentle as when he was talking to him just now, it was as cold as snow on the top of a mountain.

But obviously such a threat was very effective. The goblin nodded repeatedly, as if he was afraid that his head would be wrung off in an instant.

"You, tell me, what do you want to ask?"

Nan Xiao cleared his throat: "Where did all the young and middle-aged laborers in the village go?"

"Why don't the goblins in the village go out during the day?"

"What does this matter have to do with the Dragon Clan? Why do you hunt down the Dragon Clan?"
