Volume 1 Chapter 28 Seoul
It takes more than two hours to install the equipment of the combat vehicle, and another hour to replenish the armor pieces and shells, and the small day of three hours has basically passed.
"Let's go, let's go to the boy's house that the big cow said."
Out of the chariot equipment store, Ma Tao and Su Lanxi found that it was still noon, and it was still early to go to the bar or the hotel to rest, Ma Tao turned his head and asked Su Lanxi when he heard the words of the big cow in the supply store.
"Listen to you, it's okay to ask"
Su Lanxi took Ma Tao's arm and nodded in agreement with Ma Tao's proposal, so the two of them went to the chariot equipment store and looked for it according to what Da Niu said.
"Hello, big brother, the potatoes are good! I've heard from you that you have a young man here who wants to be a hunter warrior, right? ”
There were many houses behind the equipment store, and the two walked for a while, and happened to meet a man who came back from fetching water and was sitting at the door to wash vegetables.
"Little gold, you say? I really don't know if he's not at home, this kid is always mysterious every day."
The man who was washing the vegetables put down the potatoes in his hand and said
"Little gold?" Su Lanxi was a little amused when he heard this name, and looked at Ma Tao without squeaking.
"Do you know why he wants to be a hunter?" Ma Tao squatted down to keep a distance from this man, so polite.
"Hey!" The man sighed, and then continued to wash the potatoes in the basin, "That kid has loved to fiddle with machines since he was a child, and he originally wanted to repair the shop to work, but his father didn't agree"
"Then do you know where the little gold family is?" Ma Tao then asked
"At the end of this row, the big house is, the one with the attic."
The man stretched out his hand and pointed, Ma Tao looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, he saw an attic house with red tiles.
"Hey! I mean, you're not going to team up with him, kid! The vision is very high, several groups have also looked for him before, and there are many beautiful women, but he refused" The vegetable washing man kindly reminded.
"It's okay, let's go and see" Ma Tao looked at Su Lanxi on the side, then thanked the man, and the two walked towards the bungalow.
"You don't really plan to let me use the beauty trick," Su Lanxi asked with a suspicious glance at Ma Tao.
"People are not interested in beautiful women, I guess they are either a mechanical maniac or a patient with physiological problems" Ma Tao glanced at Su Lanxi in his arms, and scratched Su Lanxi's pretty nose with his hand, "Besides, I can't bear you"
"It's about the same" Su Lanxi was very satisfied with Ma Tao's answer, so he didn't ask.
After walking through other houses, I finally came to this bungalow, and when I got closer, I realized that this was still a two-story villa building.
The villas were open, shouted twice and no one came out, the two glanced at each other, and came to the yard, the grass in the yard rockery fish pond, the scenery was pleasant, just walked a few steps, a nanny aunt hurriedly ran over,
"Who are you looking for?" The nanny asked kindly.
"Hello, this is Xiao Jinzi's house?" Ma Tao greeted politely and asked.
"Little Golden, that kid has been going to live at Grandpa Uri's house behind Seoul lately, and he hasn't been back for a long time, are the two of you also here to find Little Golden's team?" The nanny aunt glanced at the two of them a lot, Su Lanxi was better, and when she saw Ma Tao carrying a spear on her back and wearing a standard hunter dress in leather armor, she asked suspiciously.
"You can also say that," Ma Tao smiled back at the nanny's aunt
"Who are you?" At this time, the door of the bungalow opened, and two well-dressed middle-aged men and women, a man and a woman, happened to open the door, and it was the noble lady who spoke.
"Old lady, these two are here to find Young Master Jin" The nanny aunt hurriedly saluted the two.
"Uncle and aunt, the younger generation is too disturbed" Ma Tao understood as soon as he heard it, these two should be the owners of this villa, and they are also the parents of Xiao Jinzi, and they took Su Lanxi to give a salute to the two.
"Excuse me, come in and talk" The middle-aged man glanced at Ma Tao and Su Lanxi carefully, finished speaking in a condescending tone, and led the noble lady beside him back to the house.
"Thank you" Ma Tao was very unhappy when he heard it, and even with Su Lanxi, he frowned.
Entering the house, another young nanny smiled and handed slippers to the two, and there was a butler in a suit and leather shoes beside him.
Good guy, Ma Tao finally saw the luxury of the rich, the golden walls, the brightly lit ceiling, the leather sofa, the solid wood floor, many places are covered with snow-white soft goose feather carpets, five or six young nanny ladies wearing the same clothes stand motionless in different positions, maintaining a standard smiling posture, waiting for orders, if they don't blink from time to time, Ma Tao would think they are robots, And the two middle-aged men and women dressed in luxurious clothes were sitting in front of the huge tea table made of the entire golden silk nanmu at the moment, sipping tea and waiting for the two.
"Please use tea" The housekeeper in the suit and leather shoes led Ma Tao and Su Lanxi to sit on the other side of the tea table, and also made a cup of hot tea for each of them, and then stood behind the two of them nearby, waiting for instructions.
"Are you my son's friends?" Dressed in a gorgeous costume, Xiao Jinzi's father gently put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at the two of them indifferently.
"It's not like it now" Ma Tao didn't care about this, rich people are used to being powerful, besides, Ma Tao was not a pampered young master in his previous life, and he has experienced a lot of bloody things when he was scolded by his boss, and it is not impossible to be more angry than him, this kind of scene is still acceptable.
"That's good, I often warn my son to choose friends carefully" Xiao Jinzi's father looked at Ma Tao's outfit and showed a meaningful smile.
"If I say, I'm not sure if it will be in the future," Ma Tao smiled back.
"Young man, don't be too reckless, in fact, our father and son have a good relationship" Xiao Jinzi's father looked at him, and his words had a hint of threat.
"I know what you're here for, let's be clear, I will never agree with my son going to be a hunter and wandering," the lady on the side, Xiao Jinzi, stared at Ma Tao with a hostile expression.
"Is your blocking effective?" Ma Tao didn't answer their words, but looked at them with some mockery.
"Do you know who you're talking to? I'm the former standing committee member of Bobu Town, Seoul," Xiao Jinzi's father narrowed his eyes, and looked at Ma Tao with a hint of anger in his eyes.
"I'm talking to a father who wants to pit his child" Ma Tao looked at him without fear, but his heart trembled, it turned out that Seoul was the former Bobu Town, and he was still struggling to find the legendary Bobu, it seems that the village has been closed for a long time, and the outside world has changed so much that it really can't be looked at with the previous thoughts.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Jinzi's father frowned, not understanding what Ma Tao meant.
"Is Seoul safe?" Ma Tao smiled slightly, reached out and picked up the teacup on the table, sipping the tea by himself, and asked an irrelevant question.
"20,000 defenders, 100,000 civilians, countless bounty hunters, high city walls, no worries about food and clothing" Xiao Jinzi's father didn't want to answer Ma Tao's question directly.
"What if Noah comes to attack?" Ma Tao put down the teacup and asked again.
"Ridiculous! If Noah had attacked, he would have attacked a long time ago, and Seoul had not been established for a day or two, so why wait until today! It's been decades, and Noah has long forgotten that there are still humans living here" Xiao Jinzi sneered, straightened the folds of the cheongsam on his chest, and didn't care about Ma Tao's words at all.
"Do you think so too? Our Standing Committee member ......... "Ma Tao didn't care about the woman's opinion, and stared directly into the eyes of Xiao Jinzi's father.
"Noah has indeed been a lot quieter in recent years, and its monster army is no longer sweeping wildly, all kinds of signs indicate that Noah seems to have entered some kind of dormancy, but this does not mean anything" Xiao Jinzi's father looked at Ma Tao in front of him with a solemn expression, and he found that he couldn't see through the young man in front of him who was not much older than his son.
"My Standing Committee, are you confused or Noah is stupid, Noah is a computer, a supercomputer, and can even do it seamlessly, eliminating human beings from some angles, it is very simple, satellite search, carpet inspection, many, many methods, but why did it not choose to destroy human beings directly, and it has been dragging on for three hundred years, there can be no reason for this, before Noah has been sending his subordinates to capture human beings, and even captured tens of thousands of people in entire villages and towns, and now it has stopped, do you think this is normal? One day, Noah accomplished his unknown plan, my Standing Committeeman, you have a lot of money......... What's the use? ......... "Ma Tao said something that even he didn't know what he was talking about, anyway, he could say whatever he could think of, it was just a flicker."
"You should know very well that behind security and stability there must be a strong and powerful deterrent force, and many times it is better to rely on yourself than to ask for anyone" Looking at Xiao Jinzi's father's pensive brows, after thinking about it, Ma Tao added.
"Husband, is what he said true? Will monsters attack Seoul in a big way? The lady next to her, who had been drinking tea carefully, was also Xiao Jinzi's mother, who looked panicked after hearing this, and shook her husband's arm vigorously and asked.
"I'm not sure yet," Xiao Jinzi's father raised his head, looked deeply at Ma Tao in front of him again, and asked, "Your surname?" Dare I ask you what's your name? ”
"Don't dare to be" Ma Tao waved his hand, lowered his head and smiled, "Don't be expensive, the surname is Ma Dan, I am a little person who is struggling in this crisis, the last days, the most important thing is to work hard to live, for myself and for my family."
"What a living! It's just a last resort! Little Golden's father smiled heartily, and as he spoke, he stood up and instructed the young nanny who was waiting, "Someone! Change Jin Jun Mei! Prepare food and drinks! ”
"Uncle is exempt" Ma Tao also quickly stood up and saluted, "The younger generation still has something to do, let's change the day, besides, can you see your son, I don't know if you can't get in, you don't know if you have a mouthful of eight characters, how to sit down and eat?"
"Where, Xiao Tao is so young and far-sighted, if my son Jinbao can be lucky enough to team up with you, then I will fully support it!" Campbell's father raised his hand to represent his attitude.
"That's it, it's too late for us to be happy, ha~" The lady Jinbao and his mother also changed fast enough, so quickly follow the round cavity.
"Two, please disturb rashly, please don't blame, we still have something to do, so we won't stay longer, please stay" Ma Tao said and took Su Lanxi up to say goodbye.
"Welcome to Often," Jinbao's parents also got up to say goodbye.
The butler who had been standing and waiting behind Ma Tao and the others came to the front again to lead the way, and sent the two to the door outside the villa with a smile.
"Thank you" Ma Tao nodded and finished speaking, the serious housekeeper smiled back, turned around and entered the villa.
"Tao, you are so amazing" Su Lanxi's eyes were full of little stars when he looked at Ma Tao, and he couldn't worship it.
"What's so powerful, chasing ducks to the shelves, you can't be intimidated by the officials, right?" Ma Tao was praised very comfortably.
"That little gold should not have a good relationship with his father recently, and he doesn't live at home, so it turns out that rich people also have troubles," Su Lanxi said as he walked like a child on the roadside stone in front of Ma Tao.
"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and there must be various uncertainties hidden under the appearance of harmony, the more pampered the child is, the more willful and unavoidable, but that kid is so obsessed with machinery, presumably the technology should not be bad......" Ma Tao touched his chin and walked while studying this mysterious little gold that he had never even seen in person.
"What's next?" Su Lanxi stopped and looked back at Ma Tao.
"If you don't have to fill your stomach first! Walk! Brother will take you to eat delicious food! Ma Tao put his arm around Su Lanxi's slender waist, and the two frolicked and laughed all the way to find a restaurant.
In order to prevent crowds from queuing up, Ma Tao and the two of them found a nearby store that looked pretty good, there were not many people in it, the environment was quite average, clean and hygienic, and the two of them found a seat and two people took a seat.
"Something to eat?" The waiter who came was a girl with short hair and a bob, with a good face, and a little rough voice, I don't know if it was perennial smoke or afraid that the voice would be too small for others to hear, the girl handed a menu casually, Su Lanxi was close, and directly reached out to take it and looked at it.
"What do you like, be more, I've worked hard outside with me these days, and I'll compensate you today" Ma Tao didn't stop him, and let Su Lanxi choose the dishes.
"You said, I want this and this, this ......" Su Lanxi ordered four dishes in one breath, Ma Tao looked at it, Huo! Good fellows are either sweet or meaty.
"You're not afraid of being fat" Ma Tao laughed, he didn't care, anyway, he wouldn't be poor, and looked up at the waitress with the bob head, "I'm adding two bowls of rice"
"I don't want it! That's enough," Su Lanxi hurriedly waved his hand
"I didn't bring you" Ma Tao looked at her pretending to be angry and pouting, and spread his hands indifferently.
"Okay, right away," the bob-headed girl said and wrote it down, took back the menu and went to the back kitchen.
Su Lanxi waited for boredom and began to look around, because Su Lanxi's face was good, and the restaurant was not very big, and the diners on the left and right also found that there was a beautiful woman dining here, and they all subconsciously looked at Su Lanxi twice, but they could also see Ma Tao sitting next to Su Lanxi, equipped with a long gun and a short cannon, and if you look closely, even this beauty has weapons and equipment on her waist, don't think about it, the two are definitely not weak bounty hunters.
Ma Tao can't help other people's attention, he can't just take out a gun and start fighting just because others look at Su Lanxi, then it is estimated that Ma Tao doesn't have to do anything else in the second half of his life, Su Lanxi's face is destined to Ma Tao is either fighting or on the way to fight in his life, and he has definitely become a flat-headed brother on the grassland.
"Next time, it's time to prepare a veil for you like your sister" Ma Tao looked at the guys around him with a sad face.
"What's wrong?" Su Lanxi didn't notice the eyes of the people around him, and asked inexplicably.
"There are handsome guys in the province who will attract you away," Ma Tao said with some unhappiness.
"You...... Jealous! Su Lanxi heard the sour taste in Ma Tao's voice, and suddenly reached out and pointed at Ma Tao's nose, with a serious look on his face.
"Cut!! I...... What do I eat, I'm jealous........." Ma Tao rubbed his nose and fiddled with the dishes and chopsticks on the table.
"You still say no, you're blushing, you're still blushing," Su Lanxi said and laughed as he covered his mouth.
"Okay, okay, I admit it, I don't like you to be looked at by others" Ma Tao raised his hand in surrender, admitting his displeasure.
"Okay! Next time, I'll definitely bring something like a veil out," Su Lanxi said
At this time, a middle-aged woman with a sad face walked in, sat in a corner of the table near the door, and before she could order, the waitress with Botou went directly into the back kitchen to take a bowl of steaming vegetarian noodle soup and brought it to the middle-aged woman's table.
"Thank you, Xiaojuan, how much?" The middle-aged woman said as she took out a few pieces of G in her arms
"Teacher Liu, if you don't have any money, you can eat" The bob-headed girl smiled and pushed it without asking for it.
"How embarrassing is this, I've eaten for nothing several times, in this way, I won't come next time, how much?" The middle-aged woman was very embarrassed, so she had to give the few Gs in her hand to the bob-headed girl named Xiaojuan.
"Then let's do it, you give me a cost money, that's enough" Xiaojuan, a bobo-headed girl, saw that she couldn't shirk it, and took a half-damaged G to settle the bill, and the middle-aged woman sighed when she saw this, so she didn't shirk these, and picked up the chopsticks on the side and still ate noodles with a sad face.
"Girl!" Ma Tao stopped the bobotou waitress who walked by, and then quietly stretched out his hand and pointed to the middle-aged woman eating noodles at the table at the door, "What's wrong with that aunt?" ”
"Ah, you said Teacher Liu," the bo-headed girl looked at the middle-aged woman eating noodles and then told Ma Tao
"She is a teacher in our school here, teaching children very well, my younger brother also goes to school there, due to the lack of funds in the school, I can't even afford to buy books, and now it's about to close, alas~ Teacher Liu is really pitiful" After the botou girl finished speaking, she sighed and went to get busy again.
Ma Tao looked at the middle-aged woman eating noodles again, and then at Su Lanxi beside him.
"I understand, let's eat quickly, let's go and see it later, I support you" Su Lanxi held Ma Tao's hand and looked at him gently.
"Thank you for understanding me, I just want to help others more when I have the ability" Ma Tao especially liked Su Lanxi's understanding.
"Needless to say, the dish is coming"
The waitress in the back kitchen came with the food they ordered, and then put it on the table in the same way.
"How much?" Su Lanxi asked
"Madam, a total of 5G" The bobhead girl replied with a smile, and then, Su Lanxi turned around and took 5G from her backpack and handed it to her.
