"Pollution? What pollution?"
Aransta felt that the big black dog in front of him must know something important, so he quickly pressed for details.
But then the black dog sat on the ground like a human, glancing at the two of them with disdain: "I'm hungry now, get me something to eat."
This dog is so arrogant! If he really acts like this, then Aransta has no choice but to... put up with it!
"Dog...Master! I'll go to the nearest store right now and buy you some dog food!"
He explained why the shop sold dog food: apparently, there was a dog waiting to be fed. Luckily, the dog food cost 70 Night Coins per bag, so exchanging it for an important message wasn't a bad deal!
Aransta glanced back at Jiang Ran, who remained motionless, and snorted coldly. Did he really think these strange creatures were fools?
If someone gets the dog food before him, it means they can get the information before him. Once they get the information, they can kill the dog, and only he will know about it!
Alansta's swift action pleased the big black dog, who nodded in satisfaction and pointed at Jiang Ran with its paw: "Go and buy a bag of dog food for your master, and remember, it has to be top quality!"
"Two top-tier ghost story masters actually got humiliated by a dog, that's hilarious!"
"By the way, what brand of dog food do you guys usually buy for your dogs?"
"I usually give the dog 200 yuan so it can buy whatever it wants to eat."
"666, seriously, isn't Brother Jiang going to buy dog food? How could he let such important intelligence slip by?"
Jiang Ran squatted down and looked directly at the big black dog: "Dog Master doesn't sound imposing enough. How about I change your name?"
"Oh? I'd like to hear just how imposing your chosen name is!"
"Let me think—since you're such a scoundrel, let's call you Desert Reaper!"
"Desert Reaper...Desert Reaper..." The big black dog savored the name repeatedly, then suddenly slapped its paw. "Brilliant! Brilliant! But why is it called Desert Reaper, and not Urban Reaper?"
"Because that wouldn't show your dog."

The big black dog frowned. He had a feeling that the kid in front of him was trying to insult him in some way, but unfortunately he had no evidence.
"Although I, the Desert Reaper, am quite satisfied with the name you chose, if the dog food isn't up to par, then you can forget about everything."
"Give me the payment QR code."
Just as everyone in the live chat was laughing at how a dog could possibly have a QR code for receiving payments, the big black dog nodded, waved its paws on the ground, and drew a QR code on the spot!
Indeed, bizarre creatures are bizarre creatures; in some ways, you have to admit they are.

"That Desert Reaper, go buy whatever you want to eat, okay? Now can you tell me what pollution actually is?"
The big black dog coughed lightly twice: "You know, although ordinary dog food is only 70 yuan a bag, dogs like us who are not ordinary can't eat ordinary dog food. We have to eat 180 yuan's worth."
"So, cough cough, I'm not really willing to make this trip if you give me 200 yuan, am I?"

"Oh! My dear demon hunter brother, what did you want to know?"
What exactly is pollution?
"Do you know what?" The big black dog crossed his legs and said slowly, like a philosophy teacher, "There used to be only people here, until His arrival. All the ghosts were once people, and our future may not be any different from that of ghosts!"
Seeing that Jiang Ran didn't seem to be catching up, Aransta slowed down, but a lingering doubt remained.
Is he planning to eavesdrop on my intelligence later? What a joke! I'll just take the dog away then. I have dog food, so the dog will definitely follow me, right?
There were street signs from time to time indicating several important locations. Alansta had secretly memorized the directions of several shops along the way, which was why he was able to get here so quickly.
Just as he was about to step into the shop, all he saw was the fluttering blood-red flag!
"Of course, no problem. Remember rule number one: you can't go into a shop with a blood-red flag? That rule is wrong. I was just buying a bag of potato chips inside."
Aransta immediately recalled Jiang Ran's words.
"Damn it, is he lying or deliberately telling the truth to mislead me? Damn it! Could it be that he doesn't know anything at all and is just making it up!"
Alansta quickly weighed the pros and cons. Going in meant a 50% chance of survival and a 50% chance of death, while not going in meant simply taking a detour to buy a bag of dog food, with no real loss other than time.
With that in mind, he decisively gave up on the shop in front of him.
"ah--"
A deep, slightly pained voice sounded behind Aransta, making his hair stand on end!
"who?"
Turning around, I saw a thin old man lying on the ground with a huge tumor on his head, which was more conspicuous than his head!
The old man gave Aransta a strange smile, a smile that concealed a hint of murderous intent!
Aransta was secretly alarmed. After he tore off the cloth from his face, he had never seen a ghost so clearly express its murderous intent towards him. Usually, he was the one who made the first move!
"This thing is different from other weird stuff..."
He was given no time to think. The old man looked thin, but he was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, the two were almost touching!
Aransta drew his sword and slashed horizontally, but unfortunately, the weapon that had allowed him to take the lives of several demons was smashed into scrap metal by the old man's palm!
"Oh~ I thought it was just a delicious snack, but it turned out to be a feast!"
Looking at the blade that belonged exclusively to the Demon Slayer, the old man clearly recognized Aransta's identity, and his smile became even brighter!
Tear—
The fingernails tore through Aransta's clothes, leaving three bloody marks on his arm!
No, there is no other choice now!
Aransta knew he couldn't possibly fight the demon before him; they were simply not on the same level. He turned and ran into the shop. The old man wanted to attack again, but could only barely leave Aransta with one of his shoes!
"That was close!"
Aransta slumped onto the shop floor. If he had been just a fraction slower, he would probably be that old man's midnight snack by now!
The pervasive smell of blood was pungent to Alansta, and it seemed to be coming from inside the shop.
Regardless of whether it's dangerous or not, this shop is definitely worlds apart from other shops!
