Gu Chenghu and Old Fourth Gu went to the tent to find Elder Gu He and report the situation, while Lin Yi ran into Qin Changsheng atop the city wall.
Qin Changsheng was helping the Militia Team gather the resources dropped by the Ghost Fiends.
However, most of the Ghost Fiends had been killed by the village natives, while the Newborns had scored very few kills. As a result, there were not many resources, and most were white-grade supplies.
When Qin Changsheng saw Lin Yi, his eyes lit up. "Hey, Brother Qingshan, did you just return from the valley outside the village?"
Lin Yi smiled. "I did. But Brother Qin, why did you come out? Didn't you say you wouldn't do anything dangerous?"
"Hehe, I'm a merchant, after all. When the profits are high enough, I can take some risks. Besides, even my NPC master came to help. If I hid away, he probably wouldn't look kindly on me in the future."
"By the way, Brother Qingshan, did you gain anything in the valley? Green Materials, External Skill manuals—I can appraise their value for you. If you want to exchange them for money, I can handle that too. I guarantee a fair price."
"Thanks, but I don't need that for now."
Lin Yi shook his head and left. His impression of Qin Changsheng was neither good nor bad.
However, Dugu Feng had said that Qin Changsheng was not as simple as he appeared. Previously, a Newborn from Ancient Pool Village had tried to force a purchase and sale with Qin Changsheng, only to die outside the village under unclear circumstances. He had never returned.
So although Qin Changsheng appeared to be only Level 1, he was very likely the sort of person who played the pig to eat the tiger.
