After following the map to the corresponding area, Gu Shi began searching on the spot.
His action did not go smoothly. It took him several hours, but he still hadn't found the place and had already attracted the attention of three or four monsters.
After another battle, Gu Shi hovered in mid-air and sighed softly, "Huh, there are really a lot of magical beasts in this area. Did I find the wrong place? This doesn't look like a place with a village."
Gu Shi took out the map and compared it carefully. He should have gone to the right place, but could there really be a village in such a place?
Gu Shi decided to trust the system's judgment. It would not deceive him with false information, and based on his detailed description, the information did not seem to be false.
Gu Shi decided to change direction and look carefully. He turned around and continued to move to the right.
"Well, that is?"
After flying in the sky for a while, Gu Shi noticed from afar that there was a small to medium-sized bird-like monster circling on the cliff in front of him, and its movements seemed to be attacking something.
He quietly hid his body, went around the side and behind the bird monster, and looked up curiously.
On the cliff covered with winding vines, a nimble young man was clinging tightly to it. His movements were very agile, and he used inertia to swing between the vines, constantly dodging the attacks of the monsters.
After several consecutive failed attacks, the bird-like monster became visibly annoyed. It looked unkindly at the prey that kept dangling in front of it and decided to teach it a lesson.
It let out a long, sharp howl, and bright light began to gather in front of it.
Seeing this scene, the young man also felt that something was wrong. He began to evacuate to the bottom of the cliff as quickly as possible, but perhaps because he was too nervous, his foot slipped and he suddenly stepped on empty air.
Seeing that the young man was about to fall to his death at the foot of the cliff due to his own mistake before being killed by the monster, Gu Shi, who had been observing for a while, finally took action.
Gu Shi first rushed over and grabbed the boy's collar, lifting him up in his hand. Then he turned around and knocked the angry bird monster to the ground in two or three hits.
After doing all this, Gu Shi slowly landed with the young man in his arms.
"Are you okay? Are you okay?" Gu Shi looked at the frightened boy with some concern.
Hearing Gu Shi's question, the young man covered his chest and took two deep breaths. Feeling his heartbeat gradually slow down, he finally had the strength to answer: "I, I'm fine, thank you."
Seeing that the boy's current condition was not very good, Gu Shi considerately did not continue to ask questions, but carefully observed his injuries and gave him enough time to rest.
The boy was not seriously injured. Apart from a number of scratches on his arms and thighs, there were no major problems elsewhere, so Gu Shi did not do anything more.
After a while, the young man who had been lying on the ground gasping for breath finally calmed down. He got up from the ground, brushed off the dust on his clothes, then turned to look at Gu Shi.
The boy introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Kyles, thank you for saving me just now."
Gu Shi waved his hand and said, "I am Gu Shi. It's just a small favor. You don't have to take it to heart."
Kyles quickly shook his head. "How can this be? You just saved my life. If it weren't for you, I would have fallen to my death."
As he spoke, he handed a cloth bag on his side to Gu Shi and said, "I don't have much with me, so I'll use these as a thank you gift."
Gu Shi did not refuse. He took the bag, opened it, and took a look. Then he said in surprise, "Is this the Green Flower Fruit? Could it be that you are..."
Of course, seven out of ten of this surprise was fake.
Gu Shi had noticed before that there were many green vines on the cliff where Kyles was. Combined with their current location, Kyles was very likely from the village he was looking for.
"Hmm?" Kyles looked at Gu Shi doubtfully and said bewilderedly, "Do you know me? But I don't remember ever seeing a wizard as powerful as you."
Gu Shi shook his head. "No, I don't know you. Actually, the purpose of my coming here this time is..."
Gu Shi told Kels the purpose of his visit, hoping to find a breakthrough from him. After all, Gu Shi had just saved him, and Kels seemed to be a grateful person, so there was a high possibility of success.
Sure enough, after learning about Gu Shi's request, Kyles thought for a while, then smiled and patted his chest, "Leave this matter to me. How many Green Hua Fruits do you need? I happen to have quite a few in stock at home."
"This number might be a bit too much." Gu Shi estimated by pinching his fingers, "There must be at least 8,000."
The system now shows that the number of collections is around one thousand, plus some that have been negotiated but have not yet been delivered, so the total number is around two thousand.
Gu Shi came here this time with the intention of collecting as much as possible, and it would be best if he could complete the task in one go. It wouldn't matter even if there was an excess of some Green Hua Fruits.
"Eight, eight thousand!?"
Kyles was shocked by the number. He confirmed with Gu Shi again, "Are you sure you really want this much? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Gu Shi smiled and confirmed, "Yes, that's right."
"Then I'm afraid I'll have to consult with the village chief first. I'm also not sure if there are so many Green Hua fruits in the village. But don't worry, I will definitely do my best to get more for you."
Kyles scratched his head a little embarrassedly. He had just boasted that he could definitely help Gu Shi solve this problem, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face so soon.
Gu Shi nodded. "Then I'll trouble you. It doesn't matter if the quantity is not enough. I'll take as many as I can."
