Chapter 579: Deep into the Badlands (Part 1)

Chapter 579 Deep into Badlands (Part 1)

Thunderstone hunters are rude, brutal, cruel, and possess powerful force. When they came to Hegu Town, they were like wolves breaking into the sheepfold. Buying and selling by force is considered polite, and many townspeople were beaten and bullied.

Originally, there were policemen in the town, but they were shot black by the Leishi hunters. The dead, wounded, and alive all ran here, and no one else dared to come here to maintain order, making Hegu Town completely fend for itself. .

The appearance of Thunder Stone Hunter also accelerated the decline of Hegu Town. No young man was willing to suffer such annoyance.

"Sir, you are a good man."

The old bartender said to Zuo Yi: "Leave here tomorrow morning, don't go to Sassance, it's too dangerous."

In addition to the ubiquitous thunderstorms, Sathans also has the vicious thunderstone hunters.

Although Zuo Yi looks very unusual, but a tiger is no match for a pack of wolves, he does not want to see Zuo Yi have an accident.

Zuo Yi smiled: "Thank you for your reminder."

He must go to Sassance to have a look. As for the danger or something, it will definitely not fall on his head.

Outside, there were thunderstorms and heavy rain, and the sky was getting darker and darker, so Zuo Yi stayed in the tavern.

The second floor of the tavern is the guest room. Although there are no more passengers now, the old bartender, or more precisely the tavern owner, asked his wife to quickly organize a clean room for Zuo Yi, and only charged a nominal fee. Room rate.

After settling down in the guest room, Zuo Yi released Tek from his backpack, and then took out his cell phone.

He found that not only there is no mobile network signal, but even satellite signals cannot be received, and the mobile phone software prompts have been interfered, making it impossible to communicate and locate.

This is somewhat troublesome, but it is not too big a problem for Zuo Yi.

Tap! despair!

The door of the room was knocked gently, Zuo Yi put down the phone: "Please come in."

The door of the room was pushed open, and the tavern owner came in with a plate: "Sir, your dinner."

The tavern has limited conditions, so dinner is very simple, only egg sandwiches and hot milk, plus a grilled lamb chop.

Put the plate on the table, but the tavern owner didn't leave immediately. He hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, "Sir, are you here for Lei Shi?"

"No."

Zuo Yi shook his head: "It's the first time I heard this name today, but..."

He smiled and said, "I'm a little interested in this Leishi."

The tavern owner gritted his teeth: "I have a thunder stone, and I can sell it to you at a low price!"

"Ok?"

Zuo Yi was surprised: "Do you have Leishi?"

"yes."

The owner of the tavern explained: "A herdsman paid me a debt before, and I have not found a suitable buyer."

He actually wanted to sell it a long time ago. Only when he has money can he leave Hegu Town to live in another city, and he doesn't need to stay here.

But it is not easy to find a suitable buyer. On the one hand, he has no channels to sell it. On the other hand, even if he can find a buyer, it may not be reliable. If those greedy Thunderstone hunters find out, it will be a big trouble!

And Zuo Yi seems quite reliable.

First of all, Zuo Yi is from Daxia.

Daxia people have always had a good reputation overseas, and Daxia’s strength and wealth are also widely known. Zuo Yi traveled all the way here, so he must be the one who is not short of money.

Secondly, Zuo Yi taught the scar-faced man a lesson to impress the tavern owner. Such a powerful person treats him politely, so there is naturally no problem with his character.

A combination of various reasons made the tavern owner decide to sell his own treasures to Zuo Yi.

Zuo Yi is really interested: "Then let's have a look."

The tavern owner quickly brought Lei Shi over.

The thunderstone he treasured was placed in a wooden box, the size of a baby's fist, and the surface looked like a piece of blue obsidian, with a quite pure texture.

But this lightning stone continuously emits hair-thin electric currents, which gives people a very strange feeling.

"My thunder stone is quite big..."

The owner of the tavern said proudly: "The herdsman who picked it up told me that it once electrocuted a sheep and couldn't be held by hand."

He didn’t dare to hold it directly by hand, so in addition to loading it in a wooden box, it was also equipped with a non-metallic special fixture.

Zuo Yi carefully observed the Leishi in the box.

It was the first time for Zuo Yi to see this thing, and he felt that the so-called thunder stone was actually somewhat similar to the magic crystal of the thunder monster.

But it is obviously not a magic crystal, the energy contained in it is very unstable, and it continues to overflow. If this situation continues, it will definitely fail completely one day and become an ordinary stone.

Zuo Yi reckoned that the reason why this thing didn't spread in the outside world should be that no one knew how to use it.

Neither can Zuo Yi.

He is not a wizard after all, and he doesn't have the means of a wizard.

However, from a research point of view, Zuo Yi, who is a master craftsman of runes, is still interested in buying it.

"Let's make an offer."

The tavern owner struggled for a long time before offering his own price: "How about one hundred thousand dollars?"

He was very apprehensive, afraid that he would scare Zuo Yi away if he drove too high.

"make a deal."

Zuo Yi readily took out ten stacks of hundred-dollar bills from his backpack (space ring), and bought Leishi from the other party.

The owner of the tavern is not greedy, and he is very happy when he gets a hundred thousand dollars: "Thank you, I can take my wife and leave this **** place tomorrow!"

As long as this money is not squandered recklessly, it is completely enough for the couple to spend their final lives.

Sending off the tavern owner, Zuo Yi collected Lei Shi into the space ring.

Zuo Yi has seen too many rare and rare treasures. Although this thunder stone is a bit wonderful, it is not worth his trouble and effort now. It is not too late to study it slowly after returning.

Thunderstorm all night.

The next morning, the heavy rain finally turned into a drizzle, and then it cleared up soon.

Zuo Yi said goodbye to the tavern owner and his wife.

He is the last guest of this tavern, because the boss decided to close the shop today and go to live in other cities.

The future fate of the tavern owner is not what Zuo Yi needs to care about. He drove the car and headed towards Sasanth.

After driving along a dilapidated road overgrown with weeds for more than ten minutes, Zuo Yi saw a camp built by the river, which was obviously the Leishi hunter camp.

He didn't bother to argue with the Thunderstone hunter, and walked around this camp to go deep into the evil land of lightning and thunder in the distance.

Find the truth about the time travel!

As a result, the Grand Cherokee driven by Zuo Yi had just driven less than ten kilometers away, and four or five pickup trucks roared and chased after it, full of menace and malice.
