Chapter 142: Finding a place to live
"There is no rule above that you can't carry it with you, how good it is to carry it with you, that is, there are many excuses for losing it." The smile suddenly smiled, Mu Lan nodded and gave a thumbs up: You cow!
This must have been planned a long time ago, even the excuses are so simple, so simple, so flawed, but at the same time they are perfect, so it is not a problem whether you can enter this watchtower in the north or not, because even if you go in, you will get nothing.
"Although this is very abrupt, I still want to ask, is this plan already a 'countermeasure' already in mind as soon as the treasure arrives to you?"
"Yes, because we have too little extra money, and of course we have to do everything we can to make use of everything of value."
Mu Lan swallowed his saliva, listening to this person say this, Mu Lan is very sure, there must be more than one treasure here, there is no way to be so black-bellied, and the person with such a black belly will definitely use various excuses to say that the people above will give more, and there is such a 'serious' caretaker, the boss should be happy to give them convenience!
"I'll pray for the latter, and ask again, your captain shouldn't be wooden, right?" It's impossible for a captain who is very wooden and not stupid to allow them to do this, it's normal to lose one, and it's normal to lose two, it's not so easy to explain, isn't it?
Regarding Mu Lan's question, the other party smiled deeply.
"Hehe, I'll introduce you to the rich man when I have the chance." The corners of Mu Lan's eyes jumped, but after thinking about it, he also smiled profoundly, "You see that we have such a happy cooperation, when I introduce you to the 'real' rich man, can you help with the 'special treatment'?" "For example, Zeng Hao, for example, some special people I met in the future.
"Of course, I'm sure you'd like to warmly welcome the people you introduced, but the number is limited, the sooner the better." The smile was smiling very sincerely at the moment.
What a great deal! The two of them flashed the same thought contentedly.
"Ah, I forgot to ask, your cafeteria is also open at night, right?"
"The cafeteria? It's open, but the food there is really not good, after all, it's a big pot dish. Smiling was curious as to why Mu Lan would suddenly say this, but she answered with her curiosity.
Mu Lan let out a long sigh but didn't answer, and then waved his hand and said goodbye with a smile, fortunately, he was able to find a place to sleep, after all, it was estimated that it was raining heavily at night, and if there was no place to shelter from the wind and rain, it would not work, after all, the North Watchtower was not allowed to let people in, and there were no other buildings nearby.
"As an additional tip, watch out for the rats in the cafeteria, they love rice very much." A smile added, Mu Lan stopped, it's not strange that there are mice in the cafeteria, it's even more normal for mice to love rice, how can this person say this sentence with a strange smell? Could it be that it is a hint that some disgusting person is making trouble?
But since he was kind, Mu Lan accepted it, and it was a big deal to be more careful when he went to the cafeteria, and Mu Lan just went to borrow a place to sleep.
As for whether to recognize the road or not, Mu Lan just wants to say that this canteen is no better than others, not to mention that Mu Lan can find it when he smells it, just that shape, Mu Lan can't ignore it if he wants to, such a big upside-down bowl, he can't recognize it blindly.
It's dinner time now, and there are a lot of guards coming and going in the canteen, Mu Lan won't be stupid enough to walk in so outrageously and swaggeringly, it's one thing for the soldiers to not pay attention, but whether they will pay special attention to strangers is a matter of two things, a little girl of fourteen or fifteen broke into the wolf's den or something, even if this little girl is a monster with a weak skin, this scene is also very special, and Mu Lan doesn't want to attract attention yet, so now Mu Lan prays that these people will finish eating quickly, praying that the rain will not fall so soon.
Most of the soldiers simply ate at a first-rate speed, and many people saw that the sky was about to change, and most of them didn't want to go back in the rain after a while, and Mu Lan was finally able to sneak into the canteen before the rain fell, but the canteen was really a canteen, and a greasy smell came to his nose, Mu Lan instantly hoped that he had a cold, at least the nasal congestion would not smell, and Mu Lan secretly reached out and touched the table, okay, if you don't want to destroy your clothes, stay away from the table for the time being! There are also stools, and so is the floor.
But how to live off the ground, it is difficult to go to the bedroom beam, but when Mu Lan looked up at the very distinctive beam that was smoked black, he silently split this idea into scum without explanation.
But as the saying goes, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village, isn't this just when Mu Lan was struggling with where to have a clean place to sleep in the canteen, an aunt-level figure who was mopping the floor came out: "Little girl, you are also looking for something?" ”
Also? Meaning someone has already been here, right? But this doesn't matter, Mu Lan's most basic goal has been achieved, and she just wants to try her luck in the next time, but it's too good for someone to talk to her, and it's a shrewd aunt who weighs more than two hundred to talk.
"Well, but before that, I want to find a place to sleep now, but this is the Acropolis, and it's hard to spend money to find a place to live." Mu Lan seems to be true and false complaints, the focus of smart people is the simplest and easiest to grasp, Mu Lan likes to meet this kind of person the most, and it will not be a big problem to solve with money.
"Oh, is the little girl looking for a place to stay? It's good to say, the place where the aunt lives is close to here, the little girl, you wait for a while, and the aunt will clean up this place first, and then take you to take a look! The mop dance in the hand of the eldest lady who said this splashed everywhere, and Mu Lan jumped to dodge the attack within a meter of the ground, and then found that he still couldn't escape.
Mu Lan looked at the stains that were getting more and more dazzling, forget it, it's just a set of clothes, although it is a set of very ordinary clothes that his little brother bought for me, I still can't afford to throw it away, and then find a way to clean it up after finding a place to live!
"Hey, this girl, you see that the place I found you to live in is probably someone else's vacant room, this ......"
"Oh, don't worry, this house is according to the price of the restaurant in the royal capital, ten silver coins a night, as long as I can live, I will give cash immediately, and it will never make it difficult for the eldest mother." Mu Lan took out a gold coin and flashed, and the eldest lady's eyes immediately lit up by three points, and her joy was three points more, and her calculation was seven points more!
"Hey, I see that the little girl is a cheerful person, neat, rest assured, the house that the eldest lady found must be good, if you really dare to spend the night here, it is estimated that the little girl will only have bones left tomorrow!"
"What do you say, Auntie? Could it be that this canteen will eat people at night? I'm scared. Mu Lan hugged his shoulders.
"Isn't it just a cannibal! If you want me to say, it's strange that we are the fireheads who manage the canteen, what is not good, we have to raise rats in the canteen, if we don't show up before closing, we who clean and wash the dishes will definitely not dare to stay here. ”
"Raising a mouse?" The first time Mu Lan heard that someone kept a mouse as a pet, this is also a strange person, no, there is really a kind of mouse that can be kept as a pet, that is the watchman.
This is a kind of loyalty and dogs on par with the existence of a single fighting power is not comparable to half a cat, but it is very fierce, if you raise a dozen or so only to watch the door is enough, but this thing has a habit, if you eat the big white rice given by the owner at night, you will only be particularly interested in raw meat, if people accidentally break into the territory they care for during this time, hiss, it is quite scary to think about, no wonder the smiling face in front of him suggested to be careful of the mouse that loves rice, Mu Lan accepted his love, although he didn't guess that it was a real mouse.
"Isn't it just a mouse, not one or two, it's a big flock, say there are a hundred? But I don't blame him, who let some soldiers in the past always use the canteen as a night place without listening to warnings, but they accidentally burned here, and the fire head was in a hurry, and then they raised these. The eldest lady carefully explained the cause and effect of this and warned by the way: "So this night, this canteen is absolutely not allowed to enter, and if you enter, you will consider yourself unlucky!" After all, these are the things that the boss has agreed to raise. ”
Saying this, the eldest lady neatly untied her overcoat and led Mu Lan all the way to the north, at this time Mu Lan found that there was a pile of short wooden buildings in the north that were obviously not the Acropolis buildings.
"This lady, here is ......"
"You just call me Aunt Cao! Here, such a large acropolis can't have only soldiers, think we can't do without people who clean, wash, and sew, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth, and over time someone will build a house here, and after a long time, a small village will be formed. "The talking lady who had already entered the complex escaped with a key and opened a door.
Mu Lan probe, compared with the room in Guiyuan Villa, is far worse, but it is still neat, there is no way not to be tidy, there is a bed in the room with a total area of five or six square meters, and there is not even a futon or anything on the bed, not to mention other things.
"The conditions here are not good, but it is better to be clean, if you want it, little girl, I will go and prepare a foreshadowing for you, this is good, there are already two people who have rented a room with us in front of you! Just this morning, a big girl and a handsome young man set the place early. ”
"The two aren't in the same room, are they?" Mu Lan cautiously asked, why was it so wrong as soon as this lady said this, Mu Lan couldn't help but ask.
"No, one is in the east and the other is in the south, our room is in the middle, as long as you don't choose a time to go out, you can't meet it." Aunt Cao picks up the house, and it is easy to clean with few small things in the place, but Mu Lan was stunned and didn't see how Aunt Cao conjured up the broom and rag, could it be that this cleaning lady also has a space device on her? But Mu Lan soon found that after the broom ran out, Aunt Cao directly put it on the windowsill next door (it turned out to be someone else's), and the wisdom of life is really endless!
"Look, is the girl still like this?" Aunt Cao threw away the rag and came over.
"That's good, that's it! Here are fifty silver coins, I'll rent it for five days! Thank you so much, otherwise I wouldn't have found a place to sleep. Mu Lan handed over the money, and then Aunt Cao smiled.
"It's easy to say, if the little girl still has any questions, just ask, the aunt will definitely help you, and the aunt will send you a stove over and let you fire after a while?"
"No need aunt, that's fine, I'm just curious about who lives on my left and right?" Don't get the two competitors to come over in the end, as soon as you go out and fight face to face, it's sad to think about it.
"Oh, the one on the left is basically uninhabited, his daughter-in-law's house is not far from this acropolis, rarely comes, on the right is an old lady, who specializes in sewing clothes and rarely goes out, rest assured, if there are any strangers around, the eldest mother will notify you as soon as possible, rest assured!"
"Well, then thank you first, auntie." Mu Lan kindly gestured to end the conversation and handed out two silver coins, Aunt Cao was also very powerful, and when she saw the other party's expression, she handed over the key to Lili Suo, and then left happily.
Mu Lan looked at the room that had been cleaned but was still dusty, sighed and resigned himself to clean up, although if it was the fourth, he could sleep like that before, but he has been Mu Lan for seven years, and the bad habits in his previous life have long been lost, and Shen's education is still very successful.
It was about nine o'clock in the evening, and the rain began to fall, accompanied by thunder and lightning, and Mu Lan was in good shape at the moment, and Mu Lan had already touched the third-order barrier.
Maybe this is a terrifying speed for ordinary people, but if you put it in the gathering place, it's still outstanding, it's not even good, and the current Mu Lan also has a memory bonus from the previous life, and the ability and blood power bonus, and it's not even excellent to remove these Mu Lan, so Mu Lan's current state of mind is normal, neither ecstatic nor hit by a relatively slow speed, because she walks very steadily in this life, and there are no hidden dangers in the fourth period.
If you want to break through the barriers between the second and third orders, it is difficult to say that it is easy to say and easy to say, as long as you can find the elements that fit you and dig out how to manifest them, there is basically no problem.
But for ordinary people, it is easier said than done, after all, few people have the opportunity to perceive the elements in advance, and the powerful families such as the Ning family are a different matter, it is estimated that they have already begun to train their ability to perceive elements at a very early age, although the cost is very high, but they can afford it.
Mu Lan's advantage is that she has directly experienced and used it, and she is still proficient, and this barrier is like a layer of paper that can be broken by blowing to her, but now the question is how she should choose.
During the fourth period, for various reasons, the first thing she felt was the irritable fire, so she was particularly aggressive, but the first thing she came into contact with in this life was the wind, which benefited from the existence of the wind light, and the wind light explained the wind element in great detail, and was more inclined to the wind than the irritable fire wood blue, and the wood blue didn't want to just take the offensive path.
Compared to learning to attack if you want to live in the gathering place, Mu Lan now wants to learn to guard, if this plan is heard by former acquaintances, it will definitely laugh, but this is indeed Mu Lan's truest idea now.
But Mu Lan still has some ambitions, if there is a chance to have both, no one will give up, and Mu Lan is both a person with blood ability and an ordinary ability, and the way is more selective than ordinary people. (To be continued.) )
