7:Local Protagonist In Village.

Wang Wei walks on the mud road with his brother on his back who looking at everything around him curiously. Because he's only two years old. Mother won't allow him to wander outside the house alone. Otherwise, he will get the beating.

The survival rate is very low in the village. Because of unknown diseases, poisonous insects or animals. More than half the children will die under the age of five due to the carelessness of their parents. So mother imposes rules strictly. he will only get out with others.

The village has three gates. North gate connects to the travelling road for business purposes, East gate is used for hunting purposes, heavily guarded with guards who retired from disability during hunting and the gate only opens during hunting time.

West gate connects to the lake for water resources and fishing. There are no guard's in the market square. Because everyone knows each other and if they create unwanted problems to profit within the village. they will suffer serious punishments.

When mercenaries or outsiders come to the village they will only live on the outer surface of the village. Because hotels, restaurants, shops are present on the outer surface of the village. Natives of the village including us are living at the centre of the village around the massive tree at the centre of the village.

Father said the tree was there when the village was built, the tree was at the same height from the beginning as it was to this day. The tree is used as a natural lookout station at starting stage of the village. So they let the tree as a reminder and gratitude. the tree also produces some tasty fruit and provide shelter in rain and sun.

Wang Wei ' I think maybe this tree is special. Because this giving me vibes from my sixth sense. I'll check it out later. now let's finish the mission given by mom. '

He moved to market street, where selling and buying things are prosperous. he quickly found one shop where a middle-aged aunty sits and shouting to attract customers. He strode there and took some vegetables with different colours enough for two days from what mother said and asked " How much is it? auntie. "

Middle-age auntie diverted her attention to him and looked at the vegetables and said with a smile " Two copper coins, if you buy anything else, auntie will give a discount. "

Wang Wei refused by saying " No, that's enough auntie, I don't need anymore. " after finishing his sentence he gave two copper coins and moved away.

Currency mainly in this world mainly revolves around coins. There are no banknotes, only coins. 100 copper coins equal to 1 silver coin. 10 silver coins are equal to 1 gold coin. That's the division, simple and easily manageable.

After buying vegetables, he doesn't waste anytime here and moved away from here. even though most of the people here are from the village. Still, some people are from outside and they may come here with kind or malicious intent. it's best to stay away from these people and return to your safe house.

Just before Wei went from the market square. A group of people on horses with armour and swords came by surrounding four-wheeled cart pulled by horses came to the entrance of the village. So he quickly hid in the crowd and looked towards upcoming events and taught himself ' it looks like the beginning of some cliche plot '

One of the guard's shouted arrogantly from outside the village, without giving any respect to the people in the village " Her highness is here to look for suitable people to show the path in the forest outside. Brave people with enough courage can come out to help us out. We will pay one gold coin to the experienced hunters to show us the way "

Villagers who lived for a long time know. It's better to stay away from these people without common knowledge and with a bag of money to spend. Not to mention, every time they came out from their territory, without wasting dozens of lives, they won't return.

At this time in the remote corner of market street, an 18-year-old boy with eyes of the dead and strong body with green hair and scar riddled white skin with pretty face came out and said indifferently " my lord, I am hunting in the forest for the last two years. I know how to survive in the forests alone. if you need someone with experience. You can choose me. "

A bunch of children the age from 8 to 12 years old came to the market street and looked at the group of them and one of the children who's 8 years wearing an only small cloth to cover his lower body said while looking at the green-haired boy " yo guys, look at what this green-haired freak saying. " other children also commented about him.

" yeah this freak only hunts rats in the village and dares to say, he hunts in the forest. "

" Hey, guys don't he run away in the fear of us and to hide in the forest and only show up when we are not here. "

" Hey guys don't tease him, I think he his a good hunter. if he can live to this day by avoiding a predator like me by hiding in the forest. "

" Yeah, I can guarantee he's a good hunter. "

The green-haired boy face was furious from the bullying of the bunch of kids. with red eyes and hatred he swore ' You bunch of demon, wait till I am stronger than your fathers. I'll kill you all with my own hands for the suffering and destroy this village. I had in the last few years. "

At this moment from the carriage pulled by horses came a melodious voice said " Let's get moving don't waste time on unnecessary things. Select the one who's willing to show us the way in the forest. "

After hearing the voice the green-haired boy forget about all the hatred and looked at the carriage surrounded by guards with hot eyes. The guard looked at the reaction of a teenager and shook his head and spoke with a cold expression " boy come on, lead the way. don't waste precious time of her highness and others also welcome. "
