Chapter 57: Fishing
"Brother Tang, why are you embarrassed by a child!" Sha Yunyue waited until Lin Xiao left and said with a slight dissatisfaction.
"Silly girl, am I embarrassing her? It was she who embarrassed herself. Although she grew up in the Wood Wind Inn, in fact, she was the one who supported the entire Wood Wind Inn over the years, and in this case, she had already come into contact with too much filth on this continent. Although she has not been in the same stream, she has lost the ability to believe in beauty. If I said I was here to help her, would she believe it? No, it won't. Didn't you see the look in her eyes just now? Let her suspect that if she continues, she will definitely be dug up something unpleasant. I don't want to make a fuss! ”
Tang Dou said and looked at Zhou Dong: "Don't worry, although it is a slave contract, as long as I don't enforce my rights, it doesn't make much difference to her." And there is such a contract, which is more or less a protective talisman, at least until others find out my way, no one will dare to touch other people's slaves casually. Especially here in the Fog Hidden Continent! ”
Zhou Dong also knew that what Tang Dou said was reasonable, but the child he treated as his own daughter became someone else's slave, or for himself, he naturally couldn't let go.
"Instead of regretting yourself here, think about what to do next. You're more familiar with everything here than I am, think about how to plan a solution to the problem once and for all, you don't want to wait for us to leave and you'll be killed by someone else, right? "Tang Dou knows how to persuade people like Zhou Dong.
"Your Excellency is right. I really have to think about it! "Zhou Dong was also an adventurer before, and he had been wandering in the Fog Hidden Continent for a few years before he was injured, with his ordinary strength of the fifth level of silver, not only did he not die in any corner, but he could also get the flowing gold by chance, which proved that he was not a waste who knew nothing.
"If only you understood!" Tang Dou patted Zhou Dong on the shoulder, and then left the room with Sha Yunyue.
In the outer hall, Ban Zhenming and the others were gone, Tang Dou glanced at Ah Bao, Ah Bao looked at Chihuo knowingly, and then looked at the few little ghosts with pale faces, Tang Dou probably understood how to deal with them, Chihuo had Sha Yunyue's corpse powder in his hand, and the kind of vicious thing that can be used to destroy the corpse after encountering blood is definitely first-class and easy to use. But that scene is definitely not good-looking, at least Sha Yunyue, a person who is compatible with corpse powder, doesn't dare to watch it himself.
However, Chihuo, who has a bad personality, seems to like it very much, and when she saw Tang Dou coming out, she jumped over and grabbed Tang Dou's hand: "I've cleaned it up." I didn't do anything wrong this time! ”
What else can Tang Dou say? Anyway, he wouldn't blame his sister for these bastards who didn't regret their deaths: "Good job, you can accompany Xiangru back to the room to play." I'll be back later! ”
"Okay!" Chihuo nodded, and went back to the room with Po and Little Lori.
A group of little ghosts looked at Tang Dou, and there was a bit of kindness in their eyes. Obviously, Lin Xiao had already helped Tang Dou make up his identity, and for this good person who was "Daddy Mufeng's old friend, and generously cured Daddy Mufeng's stubborn illness", the little ghosts naturally had a sense of intimacy.
At the same time, it can also be seen that Lin Xiao's prestige in a group of little ghosts, her few words of explanation, all the little ghosts have no extra doubts, and accept it with peace of mind.
"Lord, my lord, what should we do next? Ban Zhenming is missing, and the people behind him will definitely come to investigate! After arranging a group of little ghosts to do their own things, Lin Xiaocai walked to Tang Dou's side and asked in a low voice.
"Oh? Do you also know that there is someone behind Ban Zhenming? Tang Dou looked at Lin Xiao playfully.
"Ban Zhenming is just an unruly gangster on this old street, and he has no other ability than to bully ordinary people who have no foundation. He has also come to find trouble before, and he was beaten by us, he has to have the ability to fight back, and he will not be honest for a year. But this time, not only did he come to the door, but he also had a silver-level master at his disposal. This is absolutely abnormal, the only possibility is who he has taken refuge into. But if it is just a simple refuge, it is impossible for the other party to help a silver-level master to make him listen to it! ”
When Lin Xiao said this, he looked at Tang Dou's expression, as if he wanted to see the surprise in Tang Dou's eyes, but unfortunately he didn't see anything, he lowered his eyes with some disappointment, and continued: "So I think someone must have made up his mind about the Mufeng Inn." If I'm not mistaken, there should be someone who has taken a fancy to the site of the Mufeng Inn and wants to forcibly buy it, but due to the rules of the city, they can't do it directly, so they moved our idea first! ”
"If Ban Zhenming really marries me, then he can get the territory here as the heir, although the territory of the old street is not as valuable as other areas, but the old street is one of the entrances and exits connected to the territory of the elf clan, there will always be some value!"
Tang Dou had no expression on his face, but he was already shocked in his heart. Although this little pepper has a strong personality, he is a clear person, and he is good at analyzing the situation in various small details, which reminds Tang Dou of himself when he was a child, when he was adopted by the old man, and it was also because the old man felt that he was like him back then.
I have to say that Tang Dou dares to love this little pepper, if he is really a free man, maybe he really wants to take this little pepper as an apprentice and take it with him.
"Oh? If so, then what are you going to do? Tang Dou glanced at Lin Xiao quietly, with a look of "I already knew, look at how you behave".
Lin Xiao's strong temperament was aroused, or she didn't have a good impression of this guy who forced herself to sell herself as a slave, and the silver teeth bit secretly: "I haven't thought about it yet, but give me a little time, I will definitely come up with a way!" ”
"Oh, so be it!" Tang Dou nodded, and waved his hand indifferently: "You go and do your thing!" By the way, call a little guy who knows the road to show me the way, and I'm going to go out for a walk. ”
Lin Xiao's body, which had turned halfway through, stiffened suddenly, and turned his head to look at Tang Dou, his eyes were full of vigilance, obviously thinking that Tang Dou was going to carry out some evil plan again, and then turn one of his younger brothers and sisters into a slave.
"There is no one who is more familiar with the road than me, I will arrange it, and I will take you out!" Lin Xiao said with a calm face.
Tang Dou thought this little pepper was quite interesting, and he didn't refuse: "Okay, I'll give you five minutes!" ”
Lin Xiao then turned around and went to arrange things at home, mainly to arrange things for the young man who went to him with Xiong Fang before, that young man should be the most sensible and awake of a group of little ghosts except Lin Xiao, this young man named Xiang Fei didn't say anything after listening to Lin Xiao's arrangement, just nodded silently.
Tang Dou also took this opportunity to ask Sha Yunyue for a prescription: "I'll go out and see if I can draw out some ghosts!" ”
"Brother Tang, don't tease Lin Xiao too much, she is a good child!" Sha Yunyue reminded Tang Dou of this bad guy.
"Don't worry, you won't die!" Tang Dou smiled.
The elf beauty couldn't do anything about him, she just gave Tang Dou the prepared prescription, in fact, she originally wanted to go out with Tang Dou, but to leave the caretaker here, it would be too unreliable to leave only Chihuo, not to mention the combat effectiveness, this girl's character has always been not a small matter of causing trouble, and it is not a big deal to join in the fun. If there is really any trouble coming to the door, this girl will definitely raise the level of trouble by several levels.
In this way, Tang Dou and Lin Xiao left the Mufeng Inn with their own hearts and walked towards the market in the human-controlled area.
No matter how chaotic the place, there will be an orderly area, which is the instinctive pursuit of human beings. It's like no matter how orderly it is, there will be a chaotic territory. Good and evil, chaos and order, are the same beings of light and darkness, the instinct in human nature, and the supreme principle in nature.
The city of Kinunu is divided into four areas, except for the abandoned area, the three areas controlled by the three major clans each have a market, and the three markets also communicate with each other, on the surface, these three markets are no different from the markets of any big city on the other three continents, the shops that cannot be seen at a glance, the pedestrians who come and go, everything is calm and makes people forget that this is a chaotic continent.
"This is the bazaar, you can buy anything here, but you can't buy things from the demon and elf clans here. Although there are exchanges between the three major bazaars in the city, no one has yet achieved the point of communicating with each other, and it is generally not a special situation, and each ethnic group will only operate in the control area of each ethnic group, and few people will go to the control area of other ethnic groups on the full moon night of each month. That's going to get you in trouble! Lin Xiao explained everything around him to Tang Dou in detail.
Of course, she didn't care about Tang Dou, she just didn't want Tang Dou to implicate her younger brothers and sisters after causing trouble.
Looking at Lin Xiao's awkward tone, Tang Dou had the idea of teasing again for a while, his face sank, and he said in a low voice: "My slave, you have to understand, now you no longer have everything, everything you have is mine." Including your attitude. I didn't force you, in fact, as generous as your master, I will give you a chance to repent, I can now break that contract and give you back your freedom. How is it? ”
Lin Xiao's face was stunned at first, and then a trace of fear appeared on his face.
"It seems that you understand that you did not force you to become my slave, but you volunteered. It's a deal, like all buying and selling, whether you want it or not, it's all up to you. I'm not going to force you to do anything. So I hope you think about your identity and status, your attitude makes me very dissatisfied as the master! Tang Dou said the most vicious words with the most generous attitude.
For a selfish person, Tang Dou's words were indeed generous, and they were also a kind of forgiveness. But for Lin Xiao, who voluntarily sold himself as a slave in order to repay his kindness, it was even heavier than a slave contract.
After the expression on his face changed several times, Lin Xiao finally put away his cold appearance, and bowed slightly to Tang Dou with a deferential look: "I understand, master!" ”
"Just call me sama!" Tang Dou changed back to the kindness he had come from, and looked at Xiao Pepper with a smile: "This is barely qualified." Since this is your choice, it's best to do the best. If you have the strength to resist, then you are welcome to resist, but if you do not do your part, it will only bring disaster to those around you. Think about it, you're smart and you should understand! ”
The threat of Chiguoguo, but for Lin Xiao, it was more effective than anything else.
The last unwillingness in Lin Xiao's eyes was completely gone, she knew that she couldn't resist Tang Dou, and she was even more afraid that her senseless insistence would bring disaster to her younger brothers and sisters, she could only forcibly put everything down and forget, and when she looked up again, a formulaic smile appeared on her face: "My lord, I understand!" ”
Tang Dou will not forcibly explain anything at this time, some things can only be seen clearly under the proof of time.
"Alright, lead the way, I need to buy some medicinal herbs, and some materials!" In addition to "fishing", Tang Dou also had to buy medicinal materials and various materials this time, since he had flowing gold, he naturally had to make use of it, otherwise he would not have wasted this great opportunity?
The bazaar in Kinunu City has a feature that no other continent has, that is, there are a lot of black market transactions here, and some things that are contraband in other continents can be sold openly, and some bold guys will rob some incredible things on a certain continent, and then take them to the Fog Hidden Continent to sell, and if those lost owners can't get it back by force, they can only send people here to find a way to sell it back. This is a unique tacit understanding, after all, if you don't give a chance at all, then those things that have been snatched can only be buried in a corner and moldy.
So in the bazaar of Kinunu City, you can buy a lot of things that you can't buy anywhere else.
Tang Dou was just casually walking around at first, but after turning around a few shops, he became interested, and there were some special materials that were extremely rare outside, and they could actually become common things here - although the price was amazing, it was much better than having a price outside the market.
Tang Dou, who was originally planning to "fish", completely exerted the style of the local tyrant, turned half of the market, and had already spent ten red crystal coins, which not only made Lin Xiao stunned, but also attracted the attention of various shops and pedestrians in the market earlier.
"My lord, you are so attention-grabbing, we will be targeted!" Lin Xiao had to remind the local tyrant Tang.
"What would the person who was eyeing the Wood Wind Inn do if he found out that there was an even bigger goal next to his target? Are you going to swallow both goals in one go, or do you want to change the target? Tang Dou looked around with a smile, but his voice entered Lin Xiao's ears.
Lin Xiao naturally doesn't know this kind of sound transmission method, but she knows when to open her mouth and when to shut up, when Tang Dou said this, she finally understood what Tang Dou meant, glanced at Tang Dou with some surprise, and finally chose to remain silent.
"Okay, I think it's almost there, now let's go to the herb shop. That's what you care about the most, isn't it? Tang Dou smiled, beckoned two errand runners to help carry the large pile of things, and then walked towards the medicine store in the distance. (To be continued.) )
