Section 1 Meet in the foggy forest

"I don't agree, and I don't agree even if I beat you to death." Ye Kaihuai yelled at his grandfather who had just returned from the imperial capital.

"What are you calling? My ears are not deaf." The old man slowly slashed his ears, "Tell me, why don't you agree?"

"And ask why? Grandpa, are you willing to spend your whole life with a woman you have never met before?"

"Who said you have never seen this child? You have seen this child."

"Oh, when?"

"When you were one year old."

Ye Kaihuai: "..."

"I'm just sixteen! Who got married so early!"

"Yes, you bastard, I kidnapped His Majesty's daughter when I was sixteen years old. Then I threw you, the little bastard, to me five years later. I don't know where to be free and easy now."

"My respectful grandpa, don't call me a younger bastard who is related to you, because it is not good for you in terms of blood."

"...Closed. Come on, lock this little guy up... locked up this guy. When did you agree and when would you let him out?" The old man was annoyed by Ye Kaihuai's teasing.

"Bang", the iron door of the reflection room was closed heavily. The old man said to Ye Kaihuai in the room through the small window on the iron door: "Don't try to escape. I have already put a ban on the iron door. Even with your strange power, it cannot be opened. Consider it carefully. Let me tell you, Ruoxi's child is still good."

"Take down grandpa, the old man Chen, who sells buns in the town, said you look like a fairy, but I went to take a look. It was a fairy who descended to earth, and it was the first place when he descended to earth. I don't believe you said that the beautiful woman named Ruoxi."

"If you don't believe it, you have to marry me anyway. If you don't marry me, you have to marry me. At that time, I will tie you up, and I will tie you up. Humph!" The old man, who was suspected by his grandson, was a little angry and embarrassed.

The old man left angrily. Ye Kaihuai lay on the only bed in the reflection room and began to think of countermeasures. He was a time traveler, a folk artist who loved archaeology in his previous life. In a popular way, he was a tomb robber. However, in Ye Kaihuai's opinion, he was not robbing the tomb, but helping the ancestors who were no longer in the world, and giving the treasures left to their descendants to see the light of day again. It was a good deed of great merit. Of course, it was not too much to make some money and earn some hard money when doing good deeds. In Ye Kaihuai's eyes, the only difference between him and the national archaeological team was that they had certificates, but they did not have certificates, and they were a "national civil servant" who did not receive a salary without certificates.

When he was doing good deeds, retribution came. I don’t know what mechanism it touched. When Ye Kaihuai opened his eyes again, he found that he had changed, from a young man in his twenties to a baby the size of a thermos. Fortunately, he followed his father around various cemeteries, big and small, since he was twelve years old. Ye Kaihuai quickly calmed down.

By analyzing the conversation between the servants who took care of him, Ye Kaihuai roughly learned about his identity in this life a month later. His name was Ye Kaihuai in this life. The old man he had just quarreled with was Ye Zhen, and he was his grandfather in this life. It is said that he was a great magician who was famous throughout the continent.

The great magician is generally relatively rich, and it can be seen from the quality of the personnel and home decorations that take care of Ye Kaihuai. Similarly, the great magician is generally busy. It is also correct to see that Ye Zhen cannot be seen for two or three months since Ye Kaihuai can walk down the ground.

A life of having no worries about food and clothing is already very satisfied with Ye Kaihuai, who had no great ambitions in his previous life. As for becoming a baby, he will grow up anyway, and he must be content with being a human being.

In this way, Ye Kaihuai happily relived his childhood. Until today, his grandfather, who came back from the imperial capital Anping, brought himself a message that was like a bolt from the blue to him.

"You can't sit there and wait for death. If you wait like this, maybe that stubborn old man will do something. It seems that you can't stay here anymore." Ye Kaihuai, who was lying on the bed, turned over and sat up. He decided to leave here. At least he stayed outside for three or five years, and waited for the sensation to pass before coming back.

He did it when he thought of it. Ye Kaihuai ran to the door first and observed the outside along the small window on the door. Very well, no one was there. He quietly moved the bed aside, and Ye Kaihuai skillfully lifted a stone slab on the ground, revealing a hole.

This secret path was dug by Ye Kaihuai when he was a child. As a child, he always tries very well, especially Ye Kaihuai, who has rich knowledge. In order to punish Ye Kaihuai who made mistakes, Ye Zhen usually locked Ye Kaihuai in the reflection room and hungry for punishment. However, the demon is one foot taller and one foot taller and five. After being hungry once, Ye Kaihuai took advantage of Ye Zhen's opportunity to go out to secretly dig this secret path and leads straight to the kitchen. Every time he is locked up, when it is late at night, Ye Kaihuai will follow this secret path to the kitchen for a meal, and then follow the secret path back to the reflection room. When Ye Zhen released the next day and asked if he dared to make a mistake again, as long as he honestly said that he would not dare to do it, it would be fine. Because the confidentiality work is done well, until today, no one in the castle except Ye Kaihuai himself knows the existence of this secret path.

Following the secret passage to the kitchen, the chefs had already rested. After a full meal, Ye Kaihuai quietly left the kitchen, returned to his room, and began to pack his luggage. When he went out, money was essential, one hundred and three gold coins and seventy-five silver coins, which were Ye Kaihuai's entire property. There was no way, every time he went out, he saw someone in trouble in life in the town, Ye Kaihuai couldn't help but ask for help.

"Fortunately, it's not until the end of the month. If I leave at the end of the month, I'd probably not even be able to save 75 silver coins. But this amount of money is a bit small, why don't you find someone to sponsor it?" Ye Kaihuai said to himself, holding the money in his hand.

He was moved immediately. Ye Kaihuai put the money in his hand in a purse, packed a few pieces of changing clothes and wrapped it up. He gently touched the basement where the property was stored in the castle. When he passed by Ye Zhen's room, he heard the sound of the butler Fu's voice. Ye Kaihuai curiously came to the door and heard that Fu's uncle was talking about his marriage to Ye Zhen.

"Master, why do you have to get married now? The young master is still young now. Wouldn't it be better to wait a few years?"

"Ruoxi's grandfather Lin Hu and I are friends with Baby. As early as when this kid was arresting Zhou, I made a baby marriage with Lin Hu for these two children. But now the child is growing up and has more thoughts. In order to prevent the recurrence of his affairs from happening, Lin Hu and I discussed with him, cut the mess quickly and make the raw rice into a mature meal first, so that Lin Hu and I can save our worries."

Uncle Fu: "…The master and Mr. Lin care about the younger generations are really touching."

Ye Kaihuai, who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, rolled his eyes and slipped away. The name of the great magician in the target basement is still very intimidating. At least Ye Kaihuai's home has never been thieves. Think about it, who would come to steal the great magician so blindly? Isn't that looking for the toilet with a lantern - looking for death (shit)?

The saying that it is difficult to guard against a family thief was once again proved by Ye Kaihuai. After having enough money to run away, Ye Kaihuai quietly left the home that he had lived for sixteen years like a thief, and embarked on the free life he yearned for.

The next morning, Ye Zhen came to the door of the reflection room, looked inside through the window, and his face changed immediately. There was no one in the room. Ye Zhen hurriedly lifted the restriction on the door and rushed into the room. The only big bed in the room had been moved to the corner of the wall. At the original big bed, a stone slab had been turned open and placed aside. A secret passage appeared in front of Ye Zhen. Ye Zhen looked at the secret and said the God of God, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This little brat is as cunning as his man."

"Master is not good, there is a horse missing in the corridor." Uncle Fu came to report in a panic. It is hard to be surprised if the thief was a thief in the great magician's house. Who is so bold? Isn't this the whisker that pulls the tiger?

"What a panic? Look at this." Ye Zhen pointed to the secret passage on the ground and said to Uncle Fu.

"Where did this come from?" Uncle Fu asked in confusion.

"You ask me?"

"Isn't this the young master done it?"

"Who else can I have besides him? I said why wasn't he afraid of punishment when he was a child? It turns out that he was stubborn and not afraid." Ye Zhen shook his head and sighed with a smile.

"What should I do now by the master?"

"What else can I do? Send someone to chase after me. Although I don't have much hope to catch it, I have to try it. I hope my old friend with a hot temper won't be angry because of this bastard's escape."

************************************************

In the Mist Forest, a five-person mercenary team is slowly approaching their target and a nest of jumping rabbits. Their mission this time is to have ten second-level jumping rabbit magic crystals. There are two abilities of jumping rabbits, one is to run fast, and the other is to know simple wind-type magic.

"Ah Yai", as the encirclement was about to be completed, a mercenary suddenly couldn't help but sneeze. The perfect plan was destroyed because of the mercenary's sneeze. The other mercenaries didn't care about blaming their sneezing companions, and immediately dispersed to chase the jumping rabbits who were running away in all directions.

The Tiaotiao Rabbit ran away with his life in front, while the mercenaries behind him were chasing him. But how could a person run past the rabbit, especially in the woods? Seeing that the Tiaotiao Rabbit could escape as soon as he turned a corner. The archer in the mercenary was anxious and did not care whether he could shoot or not. While running, he shot an arrow in the direction of the Tiaotiao Rabbit's escape.

The accuracy was really bad. There was still one meter away from the Tiaotiao Rabbit, and the arrow flew into the woods beside it. He heard the "Oh" sound, and he jumped out, holding an arrow in his hand, shouting: "Who, the inexplicable arrow was almost shot to me." The Tiaotiao Rabbit saw a person popping up in front of him, and quickly turned a corner and continued running. Unexpectedly, after seeing the Tiaotiao Rabbit, the person who jumped out of the woods threw it away casually, and the arrow in his hand appeared on the Tiaotiao Rabbit's neck. The Tiaotiao Rabbit kicked his legs unwillingly and went to see his deceased elders.

This move surprised the mercenaries who were chasing him. Everyone looked at the stranger who suddenly appeared nervously. The man also looked at the mercenaries. Seeing that these people had no malice, he walked directly to the dead tiao rabbit, picked up the tiao rabbit, turned around and walked towards the place where there was water in the forest. While walking, he muttered: "I'm lucky, I'm just hungry, so this tiao rabbit came to my door. Well, it's quite fat, I'll eat it after roasting."

"Please stay, please stay." The captain of the mercenary team spoke.

The stranger turned around and looked at everyone alertly, "What are you doing? Let me tell you, this rabbit is mine, and I won't give it to you."

"..." The captain coughed lightly and explained: "Your Majesty misunderstood, we have no malicious intentions."

"Tsk, bad people never say they are bad people." The stranger continued disdainfully.

"..." The mercenary captain decided to express his purpose directly, "We have also put some effort into getting this jumping rabbit. If you don't mind, can you please give it to us?"

"Magic crystal? You said you want this rabbit's magic crystal? This kind of rabbit's magic crystal doesn't seem to be worth much, right?... Forget it, since you want it, let's give it to you."

"Thank you, Your Excellency."

By the stream, strangers cleaned the rabbit and handed over the wind-attribute magic crystal on the jumping rabbit to the mercenary captain who followed him and started to make fire to roast the rabbit. In a short while, the fragrance of rabbit meat spread in the air.

"It smells so good, Fan, are you barbecue? The technology has improved a lot." With a woman's inquiry, two girls walked out of the woods, one red hair and the other blue hair.

"Who is he?" The red-haired girl asked Fan in a low voice when she saw a stranger.

"I don't know. I just know that I'm good at it. I just threw it away with an arrow. The jumping rabbit we chased for a long time was knocked down by him. But the man was pretty good, and I gave us the magic crystal we needed." Fan replied in a low voice.

After hearing this, the red-haired girl looked at the mysterious man who was concentrating on roasting a rabbit with interest. She stood up and walked towards the mysterious man. Seeing this, the mercenary captain next to her hurriedly followed.

"Hi, hello, my name is Collin. My profession is a magician. Let's give it to my friend." The red-haired girl said openly to the mysterious man who had roasted the rabbit's legs. The mysterious man looked at the red-haired girl who claimed to be a magician with a bulging mouth, and felt a little confused.

"I'm sorry, you are the magician in our mercenary team. She usually speaks like this, so please don't mind." The mercenary captain saw that the mysterious man looked strange and thought that Collin's words had caused the mysterious man's displeasure, so he hurried forward and explained to the mysterious man.

"Ah, oh, it's okay. By the way, don't always call me by your Excellency. I'm old. My surname is Ye, and I'm Ye Kaihuai, and I'm sixteen years old this year. Just call me Ye Kaihuai."

"Oh, hello Ye Kaihuai. My name is Hughes, the captain of this Dawn Mercenary Squad, and his profession is a warrior. The person next to me is called Fan, the scout in our team. The one who shot you just now was named Moses, an archer. You have known this red-haired girl just now. The one with blue hair is called Marlene, and Kelin is sisters. There are two members waiting for us in Fengling Town outside the forest." Hughes introduced his teammates one by one to Ye Kaihuai.

"Hello." Ye Kaihuai nodded and said, "The people who rushed over to the scene."

"Hey, you already know who we are. Is it your turn to be here?" Collin shouted to Ye Kaihuai.

"Ah? Didn't I just say it? My name is Ye Kaihuai. As for the others, the age is unknown, the occupation is unknown, the home address is unknown, the destination..."

"If you dare to say it is unknown, I will beat you up." Collin threatened with gritting teeth.

"The destination is Anping, the capital of the Emperor of the Aolong Empire."

"You are going to the imperial capital? What are you going there to do?" Collin asked curiously.

"Colin..." Hughes quickly shouted out a voice to stop Colin, and then looked at Ye Kaihuai apologetically. Ye Kaihuai smiled and said it was okay, and replied: "It doesn't matter to tell you. My family told me a marriage. I want to see how the bride looks and how her character is?"

"Oh, then congratulations. I hope your fiancée meets your standards."

"Hehe... I'm thankful for your good words."

After becoming friends, Ye Kaihuai naturally could not enjoy barbecue alone. But the six people shared a rabbit, which seemed to be a bit too much to eat. Ye Kaihuai stood up and said to everyone, "Wait for me a while." After that, he turned around and walked into the woods. After a while, a scream like a pig came from the forest... Soon, Ye Kaihuai walked back from the woods with a wild boar.

"Iron-bred arrow-backed pig!" Fan screamed in surprise after seeing the wild boar that Ye Kaihuai had carried back.

"Ah? This is the iron-bred arrow-backed pig? I remember the book said that its meat tastes more delicious than ordinary pigs... Hehe, it's a good thing now." Ye Kaihuai said while cleaning the pig with a smile.

"You are not injured?" Fan asked carefully after looking at Ye Kaihuai.

"No, why do you ask that?"

"Iron-bred Arrow-backed Pig, a level 4 monster, good at collision, earth-based magic, and extremely high defense." Marlin softly told Ye Kaihuai about the introduction of the Iron-bred Arrow-backed Pig in the book. Ye Kaihuai nodded, "What you said is the same as the introduction I saw in the book, but there is no picture. I didn't expect that the Iron-bred Arrow-backed Pig looked like this."

Regarding Ye Kaihuai's rough nerve, Fan couldn't bear it and covered his forehead and moaned: "Brother Ye, I'm calling you a boss. Ask you a question you shouldn't ask. Are you following a combat profession of level 5 or above? Otherwise, I really can't believe that you, the person who is about the same age as us, will knock down this iron-bred arrow-backed pig that can kill us."

"Hehehe..." Ye Kaihuai smiled foolishly at everyone. Seeing that Ye Kaihuai didn't want to say anything, everyone stopped asking. The boy stepped forward to help Ye Kaihuai wash the iron-bred arrow-backed pig together, while the girl went to pick up more firewood to prepare the roast pig.

The wild boar was roasted soon, and Ye Kaihuai pulled off one of his hind legs without hesitation and said to everyone: "Don't be stunned, everyone, try my skills." After that, he began to eliminate the pig's hind legs in his hand. Everyone was no longer polite to see this. Let's eat it!... The taste was really great. The meaty aroma of the pork not only made people salivate, but also led a white puppy out of the woods.

The thief Fan, who was eating meat, glanced at the puppy who was being teased by Ye Kaihuai's bones. The meat in his hand fell to the ground with a slap. The puppy heard the sound and hurried over, picked up the meat on the ground and ran away.

"Hey, don't run, play for a while." Ye Kaihuai shouted the puppy running into the woods. Unfortunately, the puppy didn't appreciate it and disappeared into the woods without looking back. Ye Kaihuai turned around with regret, but saw Fan and Hughes staring at him with wide eyes.

"Why are you watching me like this?" Ye Kaihuai felt a little confused.

"Ye Kaihuai, do you know the monster just now?" Hughes asked tentatively.

"Is that a monster? Isn't it just a puppy?"

"Dog? You really don't know anything. It's a level 5 monster, the Wind Wolf... No, we have to leave here quickly. Wind Wolf usually lives in groups. You may not be sure that the dog you think will come here for a meal with a nest of Wind Wolfs in a while." Hughes jumped up and shouted.

"Ah, let's leave now, but the meat hasn't been finished yet." Ye Kaihuai looked at the roasted wild boar meat with half of the remaining roasted pork and said reluctantly.

"Stop talking nonsense, leave quickly, it will be too late." Hughes was speechless by this guy who had just met for a while, and he was still thinking about eating. He simply went forward and pulled Ye Kaihuai and left. The others quickly cleaned up and followed closely behind.
