Chapter 42: The Game of the Brave
Li Jie hurriedly explained: "Those prosecutors are lustful, even if they tease Wana, they don't even let go of a little girl like Tianhui, it's just a beast ......."
"Ahem." Hearing this, Mo Qi couldn't help but interrupt: "The atmosphere in Shicheng is relatively open, and it is normal for a few scum to come out of the prosecutor, so let's do it, my buddy happens to be on an errand at Ximen, why don't I take you there tomorrow." ”
Li Jie and Tianhui's expressions relaxed.
"Oh? That's great. ”
After talking about some plans for tomorrow, Mo Qi got up and pulled Li Jie inside, and quietly gestured to Li Jie as he walked: "It's not early, why don't you rest tonight, and I'll take you there early tomorrow morning." ”
Li Jie understood that this was talking about commissions, Li Jie replied with a gesture of agreement, and his mouth was full of expression: "Okay, okay, then Brother Moqi and Sister-in-law Luo Yi should also go to rest." ”
Tianhui said goodnight to Roy and got up to follow.
Back in her room, Vana was already asleep.
This was originally Mo Qi and Luo Yi cleaned up for their son as a bedroom, and now there are three bunks in the room, but Li Jie's bunk is farther away from the two girls.
The next morning, everyone had a simple breakfast and set off.
Sitting on the flying machine, coupled with an acquaintance leading the way, I soon arrived at the west gate of Shicheng.
With yesterday's experience, several people honestly landed early in the morning and walked into the city.
Looking at the city gate in front of him, Li Jie sighed: "Fortunately, it is not the city gate yesterday." ”
"The ......" The Mochi man paused, rubbing his hands.
Li Jie immediately understood, took out a gold coin from the bracelet and handed it over: "Oh, I understand." ”
Mo Qi happily took the gold coin: "Let's go together, it just so happens that I also have to go into the city to buy something back." ”
Forget it, Li Jie didn't bother to bother with him, after getting along last night and the conditions at his house, he could probably guess why he wanted to rob.
Sure enough, this time the entry into the city went very smoothly.
Stone City, as the name suggests, the entire city walls and even the houses inside are made of stone masonry.
Stone City is not particularly prosperous, but the environment is very good.
Li Jie couldn't help but sigh as he walked and watched.
The people of this stone city don't know how to get local materials, but they don't know where to get so many stones, which is really a waste of manpower and material resources.
After entering the city, Mo Qi did not part with everyone about this, but took the initiative to lead the way, and Li Jie and the others naturally had no objection.
When they arrived at the corner of Back Alley Street, Mo Qi stopped and said to everyone: "It's a pity, I really hope to go with you to see Jiagang Tanshan, but I really can't rest assured that I can't go home." A family man cannot act arbitrarily. Okay, what I'm going to buy is somewhere else, I'll bring it here, you guys go in and find it yourself. ”
The "Iron Piece" blacksmith shop is not easy to find, not on the main street of Back Alley Street, but in a small alley, and after several inquiries, I finally found it.
The shop is not very large, and there are some iron tools in front of the door, most of which are some different types of armor.
The iron stove in the shop was blazing, and an uncle with strong muscles on his bare upper body was pounding a piece of pig iron.
As far as the eye can see, there is no one else in the entire shop except this person.
Approaching the blacksmith shop, the uncle was not particularly enthusiastic when he saw that there were guests coming, and the work in his hands did not stop, but he shouted at the top of his voice: "Look at it, you can try it if you like it, each item has a detailed manual, and if you want to buy it, you can negotiate the price with me." ”
This... No wonder business is so cold!
Vana was very interested in these things, and when she walked in and looked left and right, Tianhui followed Li Jie honestly, playing the role of a good girl.
Because the sound of striking iron was too loud, Li Jie could only shout: "Boss! I'd like to ask you something! ”
After shouting several times, the uncle seemed to hear Li Jie's words clearly, stopped beating, turned his head to look at Li Jie, and said unceremoniously: "Go and go, I don't have anything to inquire about here, whether to buy or not, if you don't buy, please leave, don't you see that I'm busy?" ”
"Actually, I'm here to find someone, Stampa's Isol senior, I'm here to find him."
There was no expected polite hospitality, and when Li Jie said this, the uncle became even more fierce, waving the hammer in his hand to drive people away.
Li Jie jumped up and down to hide, and his mouth was still trying to explain: "Eh, uncle, I have something to say!" We're looking for him! ”
"Lao Tzu doesn't care if you are serious or crooked, anyway, there is no such person here, hurry up and get out of here, don't hinder Lao Tzu from doing business."
"Smack~"
The hammer that the uncle was wielding was caught by a slender jade hand and held in his hand.
Although the uncle was burly and as powerful as an ox, he could not shake it.
It's Vana.
Li Jie thought that Wana was relieving herself, but as soon as she spoke, he almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.
I saw Vana speak lightly, and her words came out with the usual tone of command: "Help me forge a set of armor." ”
The uncle stiffened his neck and shouted, "Why should I help you!" ”
"I'll pay."
“……”
Clearly, Wana's reasons are very good!
The uncle put down the hammer, moved out two chairs, sat on one of them himself, and warmly beckoned Vana to sit down: "If you don't find someone, you can have business!" Just call me Zach. ”
This attitude is really obvious.
Li Jie watched Vana and Zach bargain from the sidelines, but he was also helpless.
It's a pity that this Zach is not Bizzak, and now it is certain that the uncle is not Isol.
The emperor is not in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry, forget it, it is not he who suffers anyway.
Phew, what a broken metaphor.
Li Jie was bored, and when he saw Tianhui's little girl listening to it with relish, he walked around the store by himself.
After roughly flipping through the manuals of the armor in the store, Li Jie found that most of the equipment here was suitable for ordinary people, that is, people who couldn't do magic.
However, there are also a few armor with built-in runes, which can only be worn by magicians, and Li Jie looked at it, and all of them require intermediate magicians or above.
Armor, that is, defensive equipment, armor and helmets.
The armor of the "Iron Piece" blacksmith shop is almost always heavy armor made of iron, which is more suitable for infantry or physical training.
Vana took a fancy to the shop that could cast armor with built-in runes, so she had the idea of getting herself a piece of armor.
Later, Li Jie tried several times to inquire about Isol's seniors, but Zack, the blacksmith, unceremoniously rejected him.
Even Vana wouldn't allow him to interrupt.
There is no heavenly reason!
After Vana and Zack negotiated the requirements and price of the armor, Zack, the blacksmith, unceremoniously kicked Li Jie and the others out.
Customizing armor is a bit cumbersome to make, and according to Zack, if the runes are built-in, he needs his mother's help, so it won't be too fast, and it will take at least five days to complete, so Li Jie and the others plan to settle down in Stone City first, and by the way, find out the news of the Lieyang Clan.
A few people chose a small hotel hidden under a big tree to stay, and planned to visit this stone city.
Where is the best place to find out the news?
That must be the tavern.
After walking around the city during the day and determining the location of the tavern, as soon as it was dark, Vana and Li Jie set off for the largest tavern in Stone City, the Brave Club.
Tianhui stayed at the hotel to rest.
As soon as you enter the door, a wave of heat rushes in, and the whole inside of the tavern is larger than the outside, and the whole interior building is circular, with two floors, running up and down, and you can even see the drinkers upstairs from the first floor.
Although it was still early, the tavern was already overcrowded, and the voices of high-pitched talk were endless.
Li Jie and Vana went to the bar and ordered a glass of wine each, and Vana stayed at the bar and drank all the wines in one gulp.
Wana's appearance and drinking so boldly that soon many people came forward to invite her to drink by the way.
Li Jie didn't know much about drinking, so he found a corner and sat down, holding a wine glass and blatantly observing the people in the tavern, Li Jie found that these people were obviously divided into different small groups, which could be seen from the clothing.
Some wear the same badges, some have the same totems embroidered directly on their clothes, these people account for the majority, and there are a small number of people who do not have a distinctive mark like Li Jie.
A tavern is called "Brave Club", Li Jie is puzzled, but it didn't take long for him to understand the meaning.
The atmosphere in the tavern was very good, and I don't know how long it had been, but suddenly the crowd began to cheer.
Li Jie looked towards the crowd, only to see many people dressed in waiter costumes appear in the crowd, remove the tables, chairs and empty wine bottles, and people also stood up cooperatively and gave way to the middle venue.
A ring slowly rises from the center, and people frantically rush towards the edge of the ring, shouting the names of certain people, and a group of people in uniform appear around the ring, maintaining order and preventing the frantic crowd from climbing into the ring.
"Hold the grass, this is still popular here, no wonder it's called the 'Brave Club'."
Exciting, Li Jie excitedly squeezed forward, hoping to grab a better vision.
The arena is very large, with magic fluctuations around it and steps connecting it on both sides.
A person who looked like a host took the lead and saw that the atmosphere of the scene was almost over, so he loudly announced: "'Brave Club' belongs to the game of the brave, you can come if you are brave enough!" ”
The host paused for a moment, giving the frenzied crowd some time to vent their emotions, and then said:
"We were lucky tonight! Because we have a three-in-a-row ...... Athos! ”
The name of "Athos", the host almost shouted out.
The crowd also began to cheer the name "Athos".
"Athos!"
"Athos!"
With the shouts of the people, a slender middle-aged man walked through the crowd, jumped directly into the ring, and stood on the left side of the ring, and the audience's cries became even higher-pitched!
When the host saw Athos in the ring, he began to announce the name of the first challenger: "Alright, please cheer for Athos, and don't forget our 'victorious general' - Osi!" ”
