Chapter 1176: The Mountains to the West
"How do you know?" Richard didn't deny his purpose, and looked at the bartender in question, a little curious as to how the other party had gained insight into his thoughts.
The bartender didn't answer immediately, but deliberately sold a pass. He put down the rag that was rubbing the table in his hand, turned his head, took a large wooden cup from the wooden shelf, and took a large glass of beer with white foam from the barrel on one side. With a "bang", it was placed on the counter and pushed flat to Richard.
"Buy a beer and I'll tell you the answer. The bartender spoke, conditionally.
Richard blinked and asked, "How much is the beer?"
"Three copper coins in a cup, guaranteed delicious. The bartender smiled, his gray eyes full of sincerity and sales eagerness.
Richard glanced at the beer in the wooden cup and saw a muddy yellow liquid beneath the white foam. A lot of tiny debris floated up and down in the liquid, and I don't know if it's sawdust or impurities accidentally added to the winemaking process.
Three copper coins to buy a large glass of beer is indeed cheap, but in a sense, it also shows that this beer is not much better. As a researcher, he is more resistant to alcohol because it affects his mind. At the beginning, I almost didn't have contact with it in the Blue Lion Kingdom, and I chose water for daily drinking, and now I won't make an exception casually.
After a second of silence, Richard gently opened the wooden cup in front of him with his hand, flipped his hand, slapped a silver coin on the table, looked at the bartender and said: "I can buy beer, this silver coin should be wine money, but just drink it, I never like to drink, you can help me dispose of it." ”
After listening to Richard's words, the bartender was not much surprised, as if he was used to it, and asked lightly: "So, I helped you drink?"
"Yes. ”
"Alright—" The bartender agreed in a long voice, pulling the glass from the counter to his side, taking a deep breath and lifting it up, pouring it into his mouth.
"Goo-dong!
The foaming yellow liquid quickly flowed into the bartender's mouth, and the expression on the bartender's face gradually became hideous, and even a little painful at the end.
"Bang!"
After more than ten seconds, the bartender drank all the beer in one go, pressed the wooden cup on the counter, bared his teeth and grinned, and shouted: "Really...... It's so unpleasant!"
Richard: "......" was speechless for a while, and couldn't help but want to say, it seems to be you just now, with a sincere face that said "absolutely delicious".
As if he had guessed Richard's belly, the bartender wiped his tongue with a rag, and spit out several mouthfuls of spit, looking at it with a little helplessness: "Hey, I know you must be scolding me in your heart now." But I really don't blame me, phew, I just wanted you to drink, and I was forced.
My boss brewed this beer himself, and it was so bad that he couldn't sell it at all, but he forced me to sell a barrel a day, what can I do?"
"Actually, if it's really unpleasant, you can pour it out, there's no need to drink it yourself, after all...... I've already paid for the money. Richard looked at the bartender.
"No, no, no. The bartender shook his head vigorously, his eyes widened, and he said in great incomprehension, "How can you pour it out!" Although this beer is indeed a little unpalatable, it is still beer, and it must not be wasted. No matter how bad it is, I'm going to drink it. ”
Richard: "......"
"Alright. The bartender waved his hand, not wanting to continue the discussion, and said, "Let's talk about the tomb of the thangka wizard." ”
"I was about to ask, too. Richard said, with a serious expression, "How do you know, that's what I just asked you." ”
"It's very simple. The bartender curled the corners of his mouth and said proudly, "Because you are not the first to ask this, and you are definitely not the last." ”
"Huh?"
The bartender took a deep breath and explained, "Let me tell you this, everyone knows that after the death of the legendary wizard Thangka, he was buried in the White Valley, and the tomb built in the garden is definitely a fake.
Therefore, since a long time ago, people have been coming here one after another to find the real tomb of the thangka wizard and look for the treasure in the tomb. I am already surprised by this, as long as I see strangers coming from other places, I can guess that this is the purpose.
Speaking of which, there was a large group of people trying to find the tomb of the thangka wizard last night, resting in my tavern, and buying several beers from our boss on my recommendation—but they demanded a change of wine after only one sip, and their attitude was very tough, so I was quite impressed with them. ”
"Is that so......" Richard asked, after listening to the bartender's words, "by the way, where is the tomb of the thangka wizard that so many people are looking for?"
"I don't know. The bartender shrugged, "I'm just a guy in a tavern who can't sell beer to the boss, how do I know that." But I can tell you that a lot of people go to the mountains to the west to look for it, and if the tomb of the thangka wizard is really around here, then it must be in that area. ”
"The West?mountain?" Richard thought for a few seconds as he listened to the bartender.
"Thank you. The next moment he nodded without being verbose, turned around and left.
"No thanks!" "If you really want to thank me, buy another beer, not a silver coin, just three copper coins." Not really, if you find the tomb of that thangka wizard, get his treasure, and come back and buy another beer. ”
Richard: "......" walked out of the tavern at a faster pace.
......
After leaving the tavern, Richard hurried to the western hills that the bartender had mentioned, which was considered the most complicated part of the White Valley.
Standing on the top of a small hill at the edge of the mountain, Richard's eyes narrowed slightly as he pondered the bartender's words.
The bartender said that people have been coming here all the time to find the tomb of the thangka wizard, indicating that many clues point here, and the possibility of finding the grave here is relatively high, and maybe there is no need to go to Black Spike Town.
But then again, there have always been people looking for it, which means that no one has ever actually found it. Then even if Thangka's grave is really here, it must be very hidden and difficult to find.
However, if it's hard to find, you have to find it.
After all, it's already here, so you have to give it a try.
Taking a deep breath, Richard's thoughts moved, and the free energy elements in his body quickly poured out, and his eyes flashed, giving birth to a faint blue luster.
The eye of the gaze is fully opened.
The whole world began to change in his vision, and the soil under his feet and the trees around him quickly faded and became transparent, turning into an orderly arrangement of threads.
Richard flew forward with a quick look, consuming a large amount of free energy elements while inspecting the shallow soil of the mountains.
"Brush Brush ......"
Richard kept flying, and time passed quickly.
One hour, two hours, three hours......
