Chapter 44, Empty Pockets
"Okay, don't say it, I understand, it doesn't matter if you don't have a backer, you don't have talent, a little person like us is just a paramecium in the Tianchen Continent. Chu Ge waved his hand and motioned to Fan Yizhu not to say any more, he was still so beaten that he couldn't stand it anymore, and the joy of becoming a magician was now all turned into a haze.
Aha comforted Chu Ge with "hahahahaha".
It's not too early, Chu Ge has done everything he has changed, and he has almost understood what he wants to know.
"Sister Fan, then I'll say goodbye first, I need to rethink my life. Chu Ge gave Fan Yizhu a hug salute.
Fan Yizhu nodded, his eyes full of regret.
Chu Ge left Fan Lige nervously, divided the red, returned the money, and sold the stolen ...... No, it was to exchange the loot for money, and there were still six vermilion fruits and a pair of wings of the Molten Ant Queen, for which he thought of a good place.
The sound of "jingling" wrought iron in the Xia brothers' shop is still the same, indicating that it is another busy day.
Xia Daiwu, who was in the inner hall of the Xia Dynasty Liuchao at the counter, said: "Fifth brother, do you think that kid will hang up!"
Since they sold the Rock Tortoise Demon Armor to Chu Ge that day, they hadn't seen Chu Ge for several days.
Xia Daiwu stopped what he was doing, wiped his sweat and said, "With that tortoise shell, it is difficult for ordinary lower-level beasts to cause him any damage. β
"If he doesn't die and his head is bitten off or his waist is amputated, he probably won't hang up. β
Xia Daiwu was completely confident in the defense of that tortoise shell.
"However, he took the tortoise shell to his brother!" Xia Dailiu shook his head and pursed his lips, saying the main point.
Xia Daiwu stopped and thought about it: "Then it should be hanging." β
According to their thoughts, Chu Ge is an ordinary person, and he will hunt some Dou-level beasts, and what beast treasures he obtains will definitely come to him to sell, and the Dou-level beasts are not so difficult to deal with, and they can't see anyone for three days, so there is a high probability that they will hang up.
Xia Dailiu nodded: "Well, I also think it's hanging, but it's a pity that the tortoise shell suddenly regrets it." β
"Heh!" Xia Daiwu snorted lightly, unimpressed, and didn't bother to say.
That day, he also took it upon himself to "give" it to others, and now he regrets it!
Just as they were talking passionately, Chu Ge came in.
"Fifth brother and sixth brother, I haven't seen you for a few days, don't come to harm!" "Except for being poured cold water on Fan Yizhu today, Chu Ge is still very happy at other times, after all, he has made a lot of money.
Xia Dai Liu looked at the door, and sure enough, it was Chu Ge's kid.
"Yo, you're not dead, I just talked about you!"
"I haven't seen you for a few days, what good things have you brought!"
Chu Ge naturally couldn't bring back any good things, and Xia Dailiu also understood in his heart that it was just joking.
Chu Ge placed the folded Molten Ant Queen wings on the counter.
"Sixth brother, give me the palm eye, is this thing valuable?"
Xia Dailiu spread his wings on the counter, looked at them carefully, and then said, "These are the wings of the Molten Ant Queen, right?"
Chu Ge nodded.
Xia Dailiu continued: "Melting ants are afraid of cold and fire, and the queen ant is the same, but the queen ant is a lower level of the battle rank, how did you get it?"
Xia Dailiu is a five-star magician at the human level, and he can pinch the battle-level Molten Ant Queen as much as he wants, but Chu Ge is just an ordinary person, and it is impossible to beat the Molten Ant Queen.
Chu Ge naturally wouldn't tell them the truth, it was better to tell his grievances to outsiders less, as for why he told Fan Yizhu, it might be because she was beautiful.
Then he casually said: "I went to Silian Mountain to hunt strange beasts, and I saw this pair of wings in a cave, I guess they were left behind by the death of the molten ant queen." β
"Don't fool me, the pair of white-haired green mountains roaring horns last time also said that they were corpses. "Xia Dailiu doesn't believe it, how can he have such good luck picking up money to play!
"Wow, Sixth Brother, you can give me an estimate!" Chu Ge really didn't have a few magic coins now, and he had been a rich man for less than half a day.
At this time, Xia Daiwu also came out of the back hall, picked up the pair of wings and looked at it, the terrifying scar on his face made Chu Ge feel a little scared in his heart.
Xia Daiwu put down his pair of wings and asked Chu Ge, "The rock turtle demon armor you bought here last time was a gift, right?"
Chu Ge nodded and said, "Yes, a good brother for me." β
Although the group is called Chu Ge's boss, Chu Ge regards him as a brother, not a younger brother.
Xia Daiwu pointed to his wings and said, "I think that when you go out, you still need a magic armor to defend yourself, what do you think?"
"The wings of the Molten Ant Queen are highly heat-resistant, and have a good defense against fire-based magical energy. β
The meaning of Xia Dai's five words is to make this pair of wings into magic armor.
Chu Ge thought about it, the fifth brother said very reasonably, he really needed a magic armor, it was because he had no money, and he didn't plan to deal with battle-level beasts, but now he is also half a magic master, and he will definitely be able to use it in the future, and there is also the Jiao Hougen who stabbed himself behind his back, he seems to be also a fire-type one? Isn't that just right?
"Fifth brother, what do you mean, how much does it cost to make it into a magic armor?" Chu Ge has no money on him now, in addition to the wings, there are also a few tails of poison-tailed rats and six Zhu Portuguese fruits, and he came out in a hurry just now, and he forgot to exchange the two Zhu Portuguese fruits for magic coins.
"You're also a regular customer, so I'll charge you a thousand magic coins!" Xia Dailiu raised a finger, and his expression was still a little reluctant, as if Chu Ge had taken a big advantage.
Hearing that the manual fee required a thousand magic coins, Chu Ge almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
"Last time, the yellow-level low-grade rock turtle demon armor was only four hundred and five! This time, even if I brought my own materials, why would I have to pay a thousand manual fees?" Chu Ge thought to himself, could it be that it is ripe once and twice ripe, and this shop is ripe?
The Xia brothers looked at each other and smiled, making Chu Ge even more inexplicable.
Xia Daiwu asked rhetorically, "Did I say that the magic armor made of this pair of wings is a yellow-level low-grade?"
"Isn't it even more unreasonable for the white-level to receive a thousand!" "A thousand magic coins, the white-level ones wear one and lose one, Chu Ge can lose them for a month, and he doesn't bring the same one.
"Phew, are you a black shop opened by my Xia brothers?" After saying that, Xia Daiwu wanted to hammer Chu Ge.
"If you add some other materials to the wings of this Molten Ant Queen, you can create a yellow-level mid-grade magic armor. β
"Yellow-level mid-grade magic armor, there will be no less than 10,000 magic coins on the market, and it is very cheap to charge you 1,000 handicrafts!"
10,000 magic coins! That's worth a lot of money? That's not a lot of money, and it's a big deal to pay the bill with Zhu Fruit!
Chu Ge couldn't wait and said, "What are the two brothers waiting for, a thousand is a thousand, when will it be done?"
Xia Daiwu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, only the wings can't be made, and there is still something missing." β
"These wings are no better than other materials, and although they have strong defense against fire, their texture is not much stronger than ordinary cloth. β
"So you need a special silk thread to sew it up well without damaging its structure. β
Chu Ge understood that the magic armor made of this pair of wings was high in magic resistance and average in physical resistance.
"What kind of silk thread is that?
"It's the spider silk of the Ice Entanglement Spider, the spider silk is cold and tough, and the Ice Entanglement Spider is also a low-level beast of the battle rank. β
Hearing that it was a lower-level alien beast of the battle rank again, Chu Ge trembled in his heart, he was only half a demon master, and he didn't understand anything yet, the last time the Molten Ant Queen was solved by Ah Ha, and he didn't know if he could fight the lower level of the battle rank.
"I don't think I'm going to be lucky enough to pick up ice-tangled spider silk at the moment. Chu Ge asked seriously, "So, does this spider silk have to be sold?"
Xia Daiwu spread his hands and said: "Then you have to go to the barter set to take a look, there are many magicians there every day to sell the beast treasures they get from hunting strange beasts, maybe there is ice entangled spider silk." β
"Thank you, two brothers, I will definitely raise all the materials for this magic armor, and the manual fee will be paid to you in full. β
"The wings of the Molten Ant Queen will rest here with you first, and in a few days I will buy the ice wrapped spider silk, and I will come over immediately. β
Chu Ge originally thought of selling the queen's wings here, since he could make a yellow-level mid-grade magic armor, he could also use it himself, it would be better.
Xia Dailiu looked at Chu Ge and said with some amusement: "Aren't you afraid that we will swallow the materials privately and not admit it?"
Chu Ge also smiled and said: "The two brothers laughed, the tortoise shell that was sold to me last time was already a big advantage for me." β
The two elder brothers definitely don't care too much about this little money. β
At present, the magic armor to be made with the wings of the queen ant is only high in magic resistance and low in physical resistance, and it can be regarded as a yellow-level medium grade.
That tortoise shell's physical defense is high, and the magic resistance is not low, Han Yu is a little strange, it is at least a yellow-level mid-grade.
Chu Ge is not stupid, tens of thousands of things can be sold to him so cheaply, although he doesn't know why, he thinks that the two brothers will not harm him, and the wings of the queen ant are not worth a few dollars, and there is no need to be greedy.
"By the way, do the two elder brothers know where there is a steel-maned fighting pig near this misty city!" Chu Ge asked this steel-maned fighting pig, naturally because he promised Aha to let him eat a big meal, this other world is easy to eat, most of the expensive delicacies are deadly, it is better to make a barbecue by yourself.
Aha on his head heard the steel-maned fighting pig, and his stomach suddenly growled.
"Outside the East City, there are nearby, but this season, the steel-maned fighting pig is a little small, and the fur is not worth anything at all, don't bother with it. Xia Dailiu pointed to the east, the steel-maned fighting pig's fur that was too small had no defensive effect, and had no other value except for eating.
For Chu Ge, that's really good news, anyway, I'm not going for their fur, of course, the more tender the better!
Bidding farewell to the Xia brothers, Chu Ge walked towards Dongcheng, he remembered that when he first came to Misty City, he came in through the east gate, so he had some images of the outside of Dongcheng.
Passing by Fan Lige on the road, Chu Ge didn't bother Fan Yizhu again, the money was returned, the fate should be over, such a stunning woman should not have anything to do with herself.
After arriving outside the eastern city, Chu Ge also sighed incomparably, he was like a hillbilly when he entered the city a few days ago, but when he came here today, he had a different taste.
Sure enough, after walking a mile out of the city, I entered the woods and saw several immature steel-maned fighting pigs gnawing on the bark of the trees, and they did not even grow their fangs.
A few steel-maned fighting pigs with a body length of two feet are most suitable for roasting suckling pigs, as for the adult steel-maned fighting pigs with a body length of one zhang, they can only be skinned to make armor, and the meat is even harder.
If it was a few days ago, he might still need to get some traps to catch them, but today is different, just so they come to practice!
Chu Ge's heart moved, and he summoned the three-color magic energy star, and the magic energy star that blended ice and fire and was attached to purple electricity revolved around Chu Ge.
Chu Ge immediately said to Aha on his head: "Ahha, I'll freeze them later, and then you kill them one by one." β
The simplest routine, control and then kill, doesn't require too many bells and whistles.
Aha nodded, although Chu Ge couldn't see it.
Chu Ge then urged the frost magic energy of the three-color magic energy star, and the frost magic energy quickly gathered in his hand, condensing into a fast-spinning ice ball.
Just as the puck was condensing, the steel-maned pit pig in the opposite woods seemed to sense danger and suddenly fled in all directions.
When it was too late, Chu Ge threw the ice hockey ball in his hand straight in the direction of the steel-maned fighting pig to escape.
"Bang" exploded directly, and the light blue frost magic energy covered the three-zhang land centered on the ice ball, the frost flowers fell, the grass and trees froze, and the three steel-maned fighting pigs who had no time to escape were also immediately frozen.
Seeing that the steel-maned fighting pig was frozen, Aha jumped off Chu Ge's head and rushed to the three pigs waiting to be slaughtered.
"Brush" "Brush" "Brush"! With lightning speed, Aha used his sharp claws to complete the killing of the three steel-maned fighting pigs, and the three heads fell to the ground in response, and the body was still standing in place because it was frozen.
"It's really much more convenient, this frost magic energy is really easy to use!" Chu Ge muttered, setting up traps together, they may not necessarily be hooked, now as long as they use the frost magic energy casually, they can be frozen and not allowed to leave!
It's just that compared to the first release, today's power seems to be a lot smaller?
"Is it my delusion?" Chu Ge still shook his head, don't think about it so much, it's already afternoon, and it's getting dark if you don't hurry up, who knows if the parents of those steel-maned fighting pigs will run out.
Aha waited beside his prey, and Chu Ge also rushed over.
"Well done!"
"Aha, it's your turn, I promised to let you choose your favorite part!" This is what Chu Ge promised Aha in the pavilion of Fan Yizhu Pavilion that day.
Aha didn't shirk it, anyway, it couldn't speak, and with a single paw, it took out the heart of one of the steel-maned fighting pigs, and the heart was still beating, and Aha wanted to bite it down beautifully.
Chu Ge stopped it as soon as he could.
"Aha, we are civilized people, and only when we are cooked are delicious. β
Then he pointed to the pig heart that Aha was holding and said, "It's not raw!"
"Now, it's time for you to perform! I can't take these three pigs alone, can you hide them in your space first?"
Ah Ha tilted his head and looked at Chu Ge, "Huh?", co-invited me to a big meal, and I had to do coolies?
Seeing Aha like this, Chu Ge knew that he wanted to pretend to be stupid again, so he pointed to the sky and said, "Look! It's getting dark." β
"We're going to go back early, it's not safe here, and you don't want some strange beasts to sneak up on you while you're eating, right?"
Aha also looked at the sky, and reluctantly received the three steel-maned fighting pigs into his storage space.
Seeing that Aha put away the prey, Chu Ge picked up Aha and left here, after all, the three pigs that were beheaded by Aha still shed a little blood, and he was afraid that the smell of blood would attract other predatory beasts, so it would be a little troublesome, and he was just a novice.
Aha screamed on the way back to Misty City, expressing all kinds of dissatisfaction.
Chu Ge couldn't cry or laugh either, but it was not safe to eat in the woods full of strange beasts.
Just not far from the city gate, Chu Ge stopped, there was no place in the city where he could make a fire and barbecue, and if he wanted to roast these pigs, he could only roast them outside the city.
Immediately moved a few stones, built a simple stove, and asked Aha to take out the three pigs, Chu Ge skillfully removed the two-foot-sized three pigs and skinned them, found three thick woods, and made a thinner wooden stick, and left the three pig hearts for Ahha.
It's time to perform another kind of magic power, Chu Ge has used the Frost magic energy twice so far, and the Flame magic energy has only been used for lighting.
Then he summoned the magic energy star again, and urged the flame magic energy according to the method of urging the frost magic energy, and sure enough, the flame magic energy quickly converged on Chu Singer, forming a fireball the size of a goose egg.
A gentle throw at the stove ignites a raging fire.
"Convenient! it's really convenient!" Chu Ge sighed.
"The magician is convenient, don't talk about fighting or something, daily life is so comfortable!"
"If you want to drink ice water, the Frost Demon can come for a while, and if you want to barbecue, the Flame Demon can burn it. β
"If you want to eat pepper sesame chicken, maybe try it with purple electricity next time?"
Then he didn't sigh, and put the three pigs and the pig's heart in the middle of the flame, and one man and one beast sat next to him and waited.
This roasting took more than an hour, and Chu Ge also made up the fire twice during the period, which can be regarded as roasted.
Chu Ge first sprinkled the blackened pork heart with salt and gave it to Aha.
"Hey, I don't know if there are any other spices in this world, only salt is still not good. β
Roasting blackened is not a problem with Chu Ge's barbecue level, the three pigs were frozen instantly, and no blood was released, so they were naturally black when roasted, and the smell was extremely fishy!
But Aha didn't dislike it, he ate all the roasted pork hearts in three or two bites, and he still looked unsatisfied.
Chu Ge was very leisurely, took out a knife and cut off a piece of barbecue meat and ate it slowly.
It's just that he just chewed two bites and spit it out directly.
"It's tender enough! I didn't bleed, but it's so fishy, I can't eat it at all!"
Chu Ge had no choice but to wipe his face, although it was convenient for the Frost Demon to kill pigs, it couldn't let out blood, and it was a big problem to eat it.
But Aha stared at the three roasted pigs with saliva as if he hadn't heard Chu Ge say.
Chu Ge saw Aha's appearance and thought about it, it's shameful to waste, I can't eat it, Aha is willing to give it all to eat, I hope it won't eat bad stomach.
Aha has never been a picky eater, since he fought with Chu Ge two years ago, Chu Ge eats whatever he eats.
