Heavy rain fell for two days in a row, and the road to Sai'an was covered with torrents and gravel. www.biquge.info Although more than half of the people in the town have gone to help with the recovery, it will take two days at the earliest, and even if it does, the road will be much more difficult.

In the tavern at night, Arthur and Parker sat around the bar. Taking a sip of honey gin, Witt suggested: "Why don't we buy a horse here, the bounty is enough to buy three good horses." ”

"No, I'm going to keep this money to buy Beep. With his chin resting on his folded arms, Arthur looked a little unmotivated.

"Our money can only buy a beep at most, not a male yet. And even if we have enough money, do you think you can buy military beasts if you want to?"

Arthur's mouth narrowed to the tip of his nose: "Damn, it's all this rain......"

Seeing the expressions of the three of them, Parker asked in a low voice, "Are you in a hurry to go to Se'an?"

After glancing at Arthur, Witt replied, "It's not in a hurry, but I don't want to delay too long." ”

"It's the rainy season, and things like road blockages have happened before, and it's all up to everyone to work together to recover. Ah, yes, you don't have any goods to ship!If that's the case......" Suddenly thinking of something, Parker turned around and beckoned to the wine table not far away, "Jeff! Hey Jeff! Do you have the old pit with you?"

"Brought it. The middle-aged man named Jeff put down his glass, got up and walked over, pulled out the map and handed it to Parker.

"Thanks, I'll pay you back later. ”

"It's okay, you can keep it. But as you know, most of the mines on this map are abandoned. ”

Expanding the map, Parker points to an area marked with an X on the map.

"This is one of the oldest mines in Bangor, the old people called it Zait, but it has been abandoned for a long, long time. From here, if you go through the pit path, you will reach the old road to Se'an. It's an old mountain road, but it's much closer than the main road, and you can get to Se'an in a day. ”

"Really, in a day?" Arthur quickly raised his head and leaned over to look at the map, where X was drawn was indeed the closest area to Sean.

"This is a road that the older generation of miners have walked. It's just that it was originally an abandoned mine, and there was an accident in the past, so no one walked there anymore. ”

Witt raised his eyes: "Accident?"

"Well, it is rumored that a fur merchant who came back from Se'an was attacked by a monster while walking through the mines, but only slightly injured. ”

Nayin and Arthur looked at each other, and Werther continued to ask, "Was it really attacked by a demonic beast?"

Parker laughed: "Look at you, you're really nervous, hahahaha I'll tease you." Where there was any monster, the fur merchant was a drunkard, he was drunk at the time, and the passage was dim, he mistook the beast for a monster. My grandfather said that the furrier made a fuss for a while, and called many people to catch the monster, and the result was that a few wolves hiding inside were driven out, hahahaha......"

"It turned out to be a wolf. ”

"Yes, yes, but the beasts like to live in abandoned mines, which is really dangerous, so no one goes there after this incident. But one of you is a swordsman, the other is a hunter who wants to be the first, and there is a doctor, so it shouldn't be a problem, and if you're lucky, maybe you can still find the heavy glowstone. ”

"What is that?"

"Eh, Arthur doesn't know?" Parker's eyes widened in surprise, "such a famous thing." ”

Werther smiled, "We're from a small place. ”

"Heavy fluorescent is a kind of mineral with a wide range of uses, it can shine in the dark, the higher the purity, the higher the brightness, it can also burn, much longer than firewood, a palm-sized heavy fluorescent stone is worth a carriage of firewood, and it burns smokeless and tasteless, so rich people use heavy fluorstone for heating in winter. Another point is that grinding heavy fluorescent stone into powder and sprinkling it on the wound can stop the bleeding and can be used for emergency treatment. Because of these three points, adventurers will have a heavy glowstone on their bodies. ”

"It's a good thing. Arthur nodded, "Is it expensive?"

"Naturally, it's not cheap, now a fist-sized heavy fluorescent stone is about 3,000 dikes, last year it was cheaper, 2,700 or 2,088 dikes can be bought, but this year it won't work. ”

"Why is the price still changing?" Arthur didn't understand again.

"Fluorescent stone can only be mined and bought by the state, and it can only be bought in the royal exchanges set up in some towns, not to mention that Bangor is the resource supply of the entire north, and that thing is not even available to us here. This year, the border line is unstable, the army is preparing for war, and the heavy glowstone must be given priority to the army, and the price will naturally go up. ”

"Oh......" Arthur nodded, "I see." It's really good stuff. ”

"Could it be that there is a heavy glowstone in that abandoned mine?" Werther looked at the map again.

"I didn't tease you this time, there are indeed rumors that there is heavy fluorescent stone in that old mine, but the mayor of Grandpa's generation led everyone to search, not at all, and it has not been found in other mines. If it had been mined a long time ago, how could it have waited until now. It's really strange, and I don't know where this rumor came about. ”

"Yes......" Arthur winked thoughtfully.

"Hey Parker, did you hear that Sean executed two guys who were reselling germanium limestone. Jeff, who had been standing in the back, suddenly interjected, and before Parker could respond, the workers near the wine table raised their glasses and said yes.

"These bastards should be put to death!"

"Well done Thean!"

"Sin deserves it! Sin deserves it!"

"Jeff, are you serious?" Parker sighed after being surprised, "I still can't break it." ”

As Jeff confirms the source, Arthur tugs on Witt's sleeve and whispers what germanium lure is.

Witt replied: "Germanium is very similar to heavy fluorescent stone in appearance and nature, but it cannot shine in the dark for a long time, has no hemostatic effect, and when burned, it also releases poisonous gases, which can cause blindness. Because the value is not high and it is very dangerous, the price of germanium stone is low. Some people process germanium limestone and resell counterfeit heavy fluorescent stone, because it is difficult to distinguish after processing, so many people are deceived and lose money, not to mention, and even poisoning and blindness. Therefore, long before the unification of the Kaia Nolan continent, all countries adhered to the same principle, and those who were found to be reselling germanium and glazed stones were to be put to death.

Arthur nodded, looked at the shouting workers and muttered, "That's a bad guy, damn it." ”

On the eve of his departure, Arthur lay in bed and looked at the stars through the window, while Nayin helped Werther pack and check his gear.

"Nayin, do you like it here? Brother Vitter should like it, I see you've bought a lot of things. ”
