Chapter 220: Mirror Grinder
'Be careful, he's a weirdo, don't mess with him. ’
Thinking of Gu Jiuniang's evaluation of the mirror grinder, Yan cautiously stood at the door and did not walk in immediately, after thinking about it, she reached out and knocked on the door frame.
"Is there anyone grinding the mirror?" Her voice has an echo, and it's easy to be unsettling in this atmosphere. But she only hesitated for a moment, but decided to go in. While she could have left cautiously to avoid possible dangers, when would she have to finish what she had to do?
She wants to repair the bronze hand mirror, and she doesn't want to wait for a moment!
Lifting her whole body defense, Yan walked into the dim room step by step, and when she walked deeper and deeper, she heard a strange sound. It sounded like something was rubbing, sometimes dull and sometimes crisp, and it sounded a little weird.
She moved slowly until a flash of light suddenly appeared in the dim space. Bypassing the object in front of her, she didn't know what it was, and the light brightened a lot, and she realized that the source of the light was a small candle. At this time, she realized that the object she had just bypassed was a bronze mirror of human height, and the large and small copper mirrors around her were not this one, and they were all covered with a black cloth.
And a slender figure sitting in front of the candle adds a bit of color to this scene. Yan swallowed his saliva for an instant, and tried his best to make his voice as gentle as possible: "Hello, I'm here to repair the mirror, are you a mirror grinder?" ”
After a long time, the slender figure raised its head, and at the same time the strange voice was gone. She immediately realized that the sound she had heard before was the sound of grinding mirrors, and then she heard a hoarse and ugly voice. It's like it hasn't been opened for 10,000 years.
"I am, bring the mirror."
She walked over to her and looked at her as she handed the mirror. When he saw the face of the slender figure clearly, he couldn't help but take a secret breath.
This man was so slender, it was simply shriveled as if she had seen a corpse fall out of the collapsed Great Wall in her dreams, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a wooden stick with thin limbs. The skin on the face was sallow, and a pair of godless eyes were deeply sunken, making this skinny face even more terrifying.
At first glance, it looks like a corpse that has not yet begun to decay.
As if he didn't know her eyes, the mirror grinder reached out and touched the bronze hand mirror. He said in a voice that challenged people's hearings: "I can fix it." But there is still some material. ”
Knowing that repairing the mirror was not so simple, she couldn't help rolling her eyes, and she responded: "Please tell me what materials are still missing, and I will be responsible for finding them." After speaking, she heard the system prompt that she had received the task.
"Let's go. Send the materials in by today. After the mirror grinder finished speaking, he lowered his head and began to grind the mirror. The strange sound sounded in the room again.
Until walking out of this gloomy house and standing on the sunlit street. In an instant, Yan felt a chill wrapped around his body, and it was not until he stood for a while that the chill slowly faded. I want to think about the mirror grinder I just met. She shuddered slightly.
Forget it, she'd better find all the materials first.
It is not difficult to find materials for repairing the bronze mirror hand mirror, and there are guidelines and hints in the mission description, but Yan does not plan to go outside the city to farm monsters and fight materials. Although there are not many players in Yongkang City now, there are already people who have farmed monsters and leveled up to hit the materials, so someone in the tooth shop must be put out for sale.
Sure enough, when she arrived at the dental store, she found all the materials she needed here. It didn't take much time to buy the materials, but it took a lot of time on the way back and forth. Out of the gate of the tooth shop, she looked at the sun that had begun to set westward, and she couldn't decide whether to continue to go to the mirror grinder, or go back to the inn and come back tomorrow.
In fact, at an instant, Yan remembered the instructions of the mirror grinder, 'Send the materials over before today', but when she thought of going to that dim and gloomy house, her heart was full of resistance.
Thinking of the mirror grinder, Yan stood under the sun and trembled slightly. Why don't you go again tomorrow, maybe there are follow-up missions that may not be completed today? It just so happens that she hasn't contacted Gongzi Xia Hou and them today, and she doesn't know how they are looking for a transfer NPC, so she can prompt her?
In the end, the idea of repairing the bronze hand mirror prevailed, after all, if you don't follow what the mirror grinder says, maybe the restoration of the bronze hand mirror will be in vain.
In an instant, Yan Yan walked towards Chaodaiqiao Street, and his heart was full of unhappiness. It's not that she judges people by their appearance, it's that the feeling there really makes her panic. After walking tangled for a while, her eyes suddenly lit up!
Why didn't she remember it just now, she didn't want to go to that ghostly place alone, but she could ask someone to accompany her! Now she is also a person with a master!
Instant Yan: Master, master, I have a task, can you accompany me over.
Bite~
Childe Xia Hou: Well, where are you? I passed.
In an instant, Yan looked back at Yaxing not far away, pursed his lips and smiled happily.
[Private frequency] Instant Yan: Master, I'm here in Yaxing.
Childe Xiahou: Wait.
The son on the other side, Xia Hou, began to be a little worried after receiving the news. After all, with the character of his apprentice, if there was nothing to do, he would definitely not be called. He closed the chat interface and looked at Baili Zhuge and the others who were looking at him to the side: "You guys continue to look for it, I'll go to Shi Yan's side." ”
"Oh~" Xia Hou Ah Huang immediately laughed when he heard it, and saw the boss kick over.
"What a strange look." Childe Xia Hou said angrily, seeing that he dared to kick out the second kick in a row, this time the kick was real, and it was only satisfied when Xia Hou Ah Huang grinned.
"Then you go on, and go back to the inn in the evening if you have something to do." Seeing Baili Zhuge nodding, Gongzi Xia Hou turned around and left.
Zhong Ion saw that the person was far away, so he said lightly and teased: "Ah Huang, are you stupid, it is estimated that the most precious thing for the boss now is his little apprentice, are you still in a hurry to find a kick?" ”
Xia Hou Ah Huang rolled his eyes when he heard this, pouted and said, "If you have the ability, you should say this in front of the boss." ”
"I'm not stupid." Zhong Yi's smile was light.
"Tsk. Zhongli, if you want the bun to be sesame-filled, it will definitely be sesame-filled. ”
Zhong Ion ignored him when he heard this, turned to look at Baili Zhuge who was standing on the side, and both of them smiled lightly after meeting their eyes. The smiles of the two are indescribably similar, almost identical.
Nanhua on the side didn't have the heart to listen to their gags, and after watching Gongzi Xia Hou have only a back left in an instant, he didn't say anything about what she wanted to go to. She only has basic light skills now, and she will definitely not be able to catch up with her speed, so don't go over and make trouble, although she really wants to see what Sister Shi Yan is busy with.
Yan Shi at the door of the tooth store has been waiting for almost half an hour. But she wasn't impatient at all. Think about it. In her previous life, she never asked someone else to make a special trip to accompany her for her own business. And this time, just because he didn't want to experience the weird house full of bronze mirrors alone, he even called someone to accompany him.
For a moment, Yan was in a daze with his hair down, and suddenly there was a shadow in front of him. After looking up, he shouted in surprise: "Master! ”
"Hmm." Childe Xia Hou saw those shining eyes. The expression on his face softened a lot. He asked lightly, "What's wrong, did you encounter something?" ”
She shook her head, her face bright: "No." I just want the master to accompany me on a trip. ”
Well? Gongzi Xia Hou raised his eyebrows in surprise, not believing that with her character, he would be okay to call him over, so after thinking about it, he asked again: "What task are you doing, where are you going?" ”
"I've already bought the materials needed for the mission, now I just need to go to Daiqiao Street and hand them over to the quest NPC, it's just a bit far away." She replied.
It turned out to be really fine! Childe Xia Hou was suddenly a little confused, looked down at the petite girl in front of him, and didn't know how to react for a while. Is the little girl being coquettish? He has seen his mother and the old man coquettish, and he has also seen his sister and the sick seedling of the Meng family coquettish, but he really doesn't know how to deal with the girl who is coquettish towards him.
"Ahem." Gongzi Xia Hou cleared his throat and said, "Let's go, if you don't go again, it'll be dark." ”
"Hmm!" In an instant, Yan's voice was crisp and bright.
In an instant, Yan has always been proud of his speed, but when he ran on the street, he realized that the light skills and speed that he was proud of were nothing at all in front of a person like Gongzi Xia Hou. But also, otherwise how could it be a master?
She took her son Xia Hou to the residence of the mirror grinder, panted slightly and looked at him who was breathing steadily, and said, "Master, it's too much time to do this every day, and the physical strength is also very good." Tomorrow we will go to the horse market to buy horses, master, what color horses do you like? ”
"Then buy it." Gongzi Xia Hou nodded and said, "It doesn't matter the color, it's practical." ”
No matter what, she wants to buy a black horse for her master, and she decided so in her heart.
When I entered this room full of mirrors covered with cloth again, I didn't feel as uncomfortable as before. After handing over the materials needed for the task, the task was completed, and the mirror grinder nodded slowly, his voice still unpleasant: "The mirror will be picked up tomorrow." ”
The son Xia Hou, who was standing on the side, looked clear at this time. Indeed, in this kind of scene and atmosphere, girls will definitely feel scared or feel uncomfortable and uneasy. Glancing at the little apprentice who was communicating with the NPC, he felt that it was indeed the right one.
After successfully completing the task, Yan was in a good mood, looking at the appearance of the mirror grinder who was comparable to a starving ghost, and he was in the mood to say more.
"Thank you for helping me repair the mirror, you should rest more and eat well, otherwise your body will definitely not be able to stand it." Looking at the sallow and sallow face, she knew that she was hungry, in fact, she was polite, and she didn't expect the mirror grinder to nod seriously: "Okay." ”
"Well, goodbye."
There were large and small copper statues placed all over the room, so that this time there was an extra person who came in, and it was difficult to find a place to stay. In an instant, Yan followed behind Gongzi Xia Hou, walked out cautiously, and accidentally bumped into a bronze mirror while bypassing it.
Seeing that the bronze mirror began to shake, she hurriedly reached out to help. Fortunately, this bronze mirror was not small, but it flickered slightly, and she immediately stood firm after reaching out to hold it. Then she raised her feet and walked forward, but suddenly felt a pull from her waist, and when she looked down, she realized that the sword hanging from her waist had hooked the cloth covering the bronze mirror.
In an instant, Yan hurriedly pulled away the hooked cloth, but it was too late, and after a 'bang, bang, bang', the black cloth covering the bronze mirror had already slid to the ground. She hurriedly squatted down to pick up the cloth, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'll cover it back immediately"
Before she finished speaking, she heard Gongzi Xia Hou suddenly call her seriously, but she turned around in confusion and was grabbed by the hand and pulled to his side.
"What's the matter, master" She grabbed Gongzi Xia Hou's arm, and was looking strange, but saw that the mirror grinder who had been sitting in front of the candle had already stood up. His godless black eyes were staring at him viciously, and his chest was rising and falling violently, indicating that he was really angry.
"Mirror grinder, don't be angry, shall I get it right away?" Seeing such a mirror grinder, she suddenly felt a 'grunt' in her heart, and hurriedly wanted to say something to make him less angry, but it didn't seem to be of any use.
"Stay here, stay here"
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in the room, extinguishing the candles. With the strange voice of the mirror grinder, she suddenly shrank down to her son Xia Hou very unproductively, but she didn't expect to really make the mirror grinder angry in the end. Gu Jiuniang said that the mirror grinder had a strange temper, she thought that she must be polite and polite when she spoke, how would she know that the mirror grinder would be angry like this for dropping a piece of cloth.
The two of them stared at the mirror grinder motionlessly, and then he spoke up again: "The eyes reflected in the mirror, the candlelight in the dimness." Who's laughing in the shadows? It's me, it's me laughing! After saying this strange sentence, the mirror grinder suddenly began to look up to the sky and laugh wildly: "Hahahahaha"
The laughter became louder and louder, and suddenly Yan began to feel that the headache seemed to be about to crack, and in a daze, she felt that the voice of the mirror grinder had changed, no longer hoarse and ugly, but became silky. The growing pain in her head made her wonder if she was delusional.
She tried her best to open her eyes to see the situation of her son Xia Hou, but saw that the other party was the same as herself, covering her head and enduring the sudden pain. What's going on now? Is it off a particular NPC? Did you trigger a special mission? Or something else?
I'm sorry master, but I was the one who caused you trouble. In an instant, as soon as Yan finished thinking like this in his heart, his consciousness fell into darkness.
When Yan woke up, he felt like he had fainted for a long time, and it felt like he had just fainted and woke up. Rubbing his forehead, the pain from before seemed to remain in his impression. She slowly stood up with one hand on the ground, and looked around as she looked stupid.
