Eye of Darkness

However, Wind Speed ​​Dog, Candlelight Spirit, and Almost Doll are not the main combat elves in this exercise, so the improvement is not as great as that of Gengar and Charizard.

The Wind Speed ​​Dog has been upgraded by two levels. Most of the opponents he can challenge have been taken away by the fire-breathing dragon. The Candlelight Spirit has been upgraded by three levels. Because of the different promotion methods, the improvement of the Candlelight Spirit is relatively gentle. As for the almost-baby, it is unexpected.

Upgraded by five levels.

In fact, Yan Ming understands it when he thinks about it. After all, although he doesn't fight many times, he has done a lot of treating the injuries of Charizard and Gengar. It can be said that most of his experience is gained from Charizard.

In order to take revenge on Charizard who was always injured and delayed her from reading, she gave Charizard the new treatments or herbs she learned and used them as a fool to test the medicine. In fact, she provided many ideas for the little girl to recover the Elf's injuries.

All in all, in half a month, the elves improved greatly, which satisfied Yan Ming's purpose of coming to the ancient forest this time.

In terms of Ming's own strength, the progress is relatively slow.

When it comes to sword skills, he is always stuck in one place, unable to make any progress.

Regarding the training of the instant sword, because of his strength and the elves, it is difficult to encounter situations that make him feel extremely dangerous, so his sword skills always lack the feeling of gathering strength at the critical moment.

But he was not in a hurry, this kind of thing had to be done slowly.

However, I was aggrieved by Dr. Ohmu's fast dragon. It followed him for half a month, and it did not play any other role other than being used to rush on the road.

Since the fire-breathing dinosaur evolved into the Charizard, in order to exercise the Charizard's flying ability, the Charizard is responsible for the flying time these days.

Jumping off the back of the fire-breathing dragon, Yan Ming looked at the old man who was already waiting outside the house.

At this time, the old man held a slightly yellowed envelope in his hand.

During this period, except sometimes when he needed to do intensive training, he would come back to stay every night, and the old man would leave a light outside waiting for him. Then Yan Ming would cook a meal for the old man and start helping him.

The wizard is restored.

This seemed to have become a habit, and neither of them said anything about it.

There isn't much communication between the two these days. What's more, the old man would say something every time he comes back.

"Back."

Hearing the old man's words, Yan Ming nodded as usual.

Without saying anything else, Yan Ming put away the elf and went directly to the kitchen to cook. After a while, the fragrant dishes were placed on the table.

Yan Ming noticed the old man's expression and spoke at the right time.

"What's the emergency?"

Upon hearing Yan Ming's question, the old man looked a little hesitant, but then he seemed to have made up his mind. He sighed deeply and then said.

"Are you going back soon?"

Although the old man said this, his tone was extremely certain.

In response to the old man's question, Yan Ming nodded. Indeed, he had been training for a long time recently. Although it was expected that the several months of experience would only take such a short time, the purpose of this trip has been achieved. There is no need to stay any longer. He is also prepared to

I will bid farewell to the old man tonight and go to the final challenge against an overlord elf in this area. After verifying the results, I will go back to the nearest city to contact Dr. Oak and head to Zhenxin Town to meet up with Xiaomao and the others.

Seeing Yan Ming nod, the old man said after considering it.

"I still remember when we first met, you were curious about why I stayed here. I didn't say much at that time, but now that you are leaving, are you willing to listen to my ramblings, old man?"

Yan Ming was a little surprised when he heard this.

Yan Ming was a little curious as to why the old man stayed here. The two of them didn't communicate much during this period. During these times, Yan Ming didn't even know the old man's name. The old man said before that he stayed here for many years and never left because he had to guard

There was nothing he could do here, but Yan Ming knew that even if he really needed to stay there, he wouldn't have to stay away for most of his life.

From the observations during this period and the understanding he gained from the elves, Yan Ming knew clearly that the old man had been stationed for about twenty years and had never voluntarily left the forest in these years.

Yan Ming had always thought that the old man stayed here because he liked it, but looking at the situation, it seemed that there was something else hidden. It seemed that the interaction these days had made the old man have a good impression of this young man, or maybe he was too young.

It's been a long time since I've needed someone to vent my feelings to, and now I'm ready to speak out.

"You speak and I listen."

Seeing Yan Ming's words, the old man smiled slightly and stopped making any fuss. Instead, his eyes looked slightly lonely and he said.

"I used to be the gym leader in Luyin City near this forest. I married a very beautiful girl in Luyin City at that time."

As he spoke, the old man's eyes held memories.

"We loved each other very much, and within three years, she gave birth to two sons for me. I still remember that I was very excited at the time, and I was so naive that I bought her a house full of light flowers. It was a kind of

Very beautiful milky white flowers... That year, I was twenty-five."

"But later, I heard that the development team of the Ancient Forest has a very good future, and every time I come back, there are great benefits. At that time, I saw an elf egg that seemed to be from ancient times, but it sold for a lot of money, and he also

Became a local chaebol."

As he said this, the old man sneered.

"I was also blinded by lard. I always felt that instead of staying in the gym in that less developed city, I might as well take a gamble. In addition, I also hoped that the children would have a good future, so I spent a lot of money on it.

She spent a lot of money to join this expedition, even though she was against it at the time."

Yan Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard this and guessed something.

"It's just that I didn't expect that we would be in crisis this time. During the battle, I not only lost my elven companions, but I was also left with a secret disease. Now I have inconvenience in my legs and feet. More importantly, I...I lost my life at that time.

Most of the money she had prepared for me was lost."

Having said this, the old man approached the palm of his hand.

"I regret it, really... I regret it, I... dare not face them."

"So you've been hiding until now?"

Yan Ming frowned slightly, but then relaxed it.

There is a problem with the signal here. In other words, the old man may not have even called back for so many years. His family must be worried to death. However, they should have learned about the old man's situation later. After all, there are still channels for monthly supplies.

Got it.

But it seems that his wife is also disappointed.

He didn't expect that the old man had such a cowardly side, but that was all. He didn't want to care about what the old man did, nor did he want to be emotionally affected by it. After all, this was the old man's family matter, and it was a human being.

He will make mistakes, no matter how big or small. Yan Ming can't just take care of others' mistakes because they haven't affected him. That's not Yan Ming.
