Chapter 231: Fooling Around
Ye Mu didn't have anything, took out a bag of gold coins from his arms, and asked, "I only have gold coins." ”
"Gold coins?" But the merchant said with some disgust: "That thing can't be eaten, so I won't accept it." ”
Ye Mu was speechless, could it be that the primitive trading system of bartering was still maintained here?
"Still, if you have anything else of value, I'll give you some meat in exchange. ”
Sure enough, it's still bartering!
"Huh......" Agile said disgustedly, "you won't take a bath when you become adults?"
Xiong Bingwei said embarrassedly: "I take a bath every time, but the orcs of our empire don't have the habit of bathing. ”
Ye Mu was also a little unbearable by this smell, but fortunately, he was an alchemist, carrying some medicinal materials with him, using his hands as a pill furnace, he refined four pills in his hands, threw two pills to Ai Ji'er, and said, "Stuff them into your nose." ”
Anyway, I had already stuffed the pill into my nose. Suddenly, the unpleasant smell that had been bothering him disappeared and was replaced by the fragrance of an orchid.
Agile did so, and didn't complain any longer.
Along the way, as he went deeper, Ye Mu found that the level of science and technology here seemed to be very underdeveloped, and even the level of architecture was underdeveloped. The roadside is full of wild grass and jungle, and there seem to be few people. Even in the port, there is only an old man sleeping on a chair, and there is no other person or animal at all.
"It's so desolate......" Ye Mu said.
"Ahem, there's a town ahead, so there's no panic there, master. Xiong Bing guarded, spread his wings and flew into the air, and said, "It's a little far, let's fly over." ”
Ye Mu nodded, and very skillfully took Ai Ji'er in his arms and flew into the air.
The hunting continent seems to be in the constant temperate zone all year round, and the temperature here is very high, keeping it at 30 degrees. For the first time, Agille put on cool clothes, she felt the warm breeze blowing on her face, and said happily, "This is what it feels like to be in the air outside of winter?"
After flying for almost two, the three of them finally saw the shadow of a town.
But if it's a town, it feels too simple and desolate. Because as far as the eye can see, there are one after another tents that look like yurts. Tents are also placed on both sides of the street, but the street position left is not wide, only 10 meters in total.
All kinds of orc men sat cross-legged in front of their tents, and they would raise their glasses and take a sip together.
None of these tents look like grocery stores or anything like that. Could it be that the people here do not have the custom of selling things, and they are all self-sufficient?
Just as he was thinking, Xiongbei pointed to a slightly wider place below and said, "Let's go there and restock something." ”
Just fly down. The two followed.
It was a large open space surrounded by several tents. In front of these tents, there are stalls one after another, and the things sold are not rich, but they have to be passed.
There are wild fruits, fish, and all kinds of game and hides.
Ye Mu didn't know what the currency was, so he looked at Xiong Bingwei and said, "I'll leave it to you." ”
Xiong Bingwei nodded, stepped forward to bargain with those merchants, and finally when it was time to pay, he still looked at Ye Mu, spread his hands and said, "I don't have any money." ”
Ye Mu didn't have anything, took out a bag of gold coins from his arms, and asked, "I only have gold coins." ”
"Gold coins?" But the merchant said with some disgust: "That thing can't be eaten, so I won't accept it." ”
Ye Mu was speechless, could it be that the primitive trading system of bartering was still maintained here?
"Still, if you have anything else of value, I'll give you some meat in exchange. ”
Sure enough, it's still bartering!
"That's not a school" Ye Mu rejected this deal. The value of what he was carrying now was far greater than that of such a piece of meat. Besides, if it weren't just for convenience, he wouldn't be going to buy food in such a place. After all, food can be obtained by hunting on your own. If you spend gold coins to buy it, Ye Mu will not hesitate to buy it, but if it is bartered, then forget it.
You can't trade your precious elixir for inconsequential food, right?
"If it doesn't work, forget it. ”
The vendor in the shop obviously didn't want to keep Ye Mu, although her expression was very ordinary, but the disgust in her eyes still gave Ye Mu an insight.
It seems that the abhorrence of the orcs for humans can be directly expressed. It's no wonder, after all, humans also have a dislike for orcs.
"Let's go. Ye Mu turned around and left the mess with the two of them
Leaving this town, Ye Mu took the two of them to fly in the air, looking for some beasts on the ground. I don't care about anything else, anyway, hunt first and fill my stomach.
"Mentor, where are we going?" asked Ye Mu in her arms.
"Find something to eat. As soon as Ye Mu finished, his eyes lit up. Because suddenly he saw an antelope grazing on the grassland. This antelope has delicious meat and, crucially, is easy to catch.
"That's it. "That's it, as soon as Ye Mu shook his hand, a wind blade was thrown, and the antelope was killed in one fell swoop.
As soon as the antelope died, Ye Mu and a few people descended and landed beside the antelope. Picking up the antelope, he was just about to go to the river to wash and peel it, when he heard a sound of human voices and horses' hooves behind him.
"Stop, stop!"
Ye Mu stopped and looked back, behind him were more than a dozen men and women with tiger ears dressed in coarse cloth clothes and holding curved bows and hunting knives in their hands. They soon surrounded the trio.
"What's going on?" asked Agile, a little confused.
"We seem to have trespassed into their hunting territory. Xiong Bing guarded, took the initiative to stand in front, protected the two of them behind him, accompanied by a smiling face, and said: "Oh, hey, this brother, this brother." It's a real blessing. ”
"What are you doing here?" asked a tiger man who looked to be a little bigger than the average tiger man, and he didn't smile, but his face was serious.
"We were just hungry, and when we met an antelope, we killed it and planned to fill it. Xiongbei laughed loudly, intending to use this to fool around.
"Oh?"
The tiger man rubbed his chin and glanced at a few people. When its gaze was on Ye Mu, it suddenly became angry. It glared, pointed at Ye Mu, and shouted, "Human, what are you doing in our hunting empire?"
"This sir, he ......"
Remember that I have a permanent address for a bronze tripod
