Chapter 637: The Stingy Karul (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
Krull searched for a lot to find a dry dilapidated sewer, although a little narrow, but as long as a little squeezing should be no problem, not to mention that the back of this dilapidated pipe is blocked by rubble, so that there is only one opening, not afraid of being hit by both ends, it is a safe place to stay.
First arrange Cerileph in the innermost part of the pipe, and then arrange the Calancaron brothers to be on guard, and Krull immediately began to make a fire to arrange food, in this case, Cerilelev must have enough physical strength, so he must eat something hot, otherwise people will not be able to stand it.
Dinner for adventurers is simple and most of the time local ingredients are used. But in a place like the sewer, it's really hard to find food that can be eaten, so as a responsible captain, Krull has already prepared enough food in his bag, and before he has found a lot of non-toxic mushrooms in the dried meat that has been air-dried, and then in the sewers, so that the delicious mushroom broth is complete.
Karul stared at the broth in the iron pot as he pulled out a few rusks from his backpack and roasted them by the fire, while he thoughtfully took out the salt in his leather bag. For those who have been camping in the wilderness for a long time, there is nothing more important in this world than salt.
After all, there is a lack of food to hunt, to collect mushrooms and wild vegetables, that is, in the sewers, very hungry, rats can be eaten, although a little disgusting, but the taste of rat meat is actually good, but Cheryl is more resistant, he and the KGB, and the Calancaron brothers have no taboos about this.
As for the water source or something, it's not difficult to find, and you can drink it if you don't have to burn the sewage with diarrhea, anyway, you can't die if you drink it.
But salt is different, once you can't get salt for more than ten days, then no matter how powerful the strong man is, he will lose appetite, weakness in his limbs, dizziness and nausea, and in severe cases, vomiting, blurred vision, muscle spasms and so on. 、
Therefore, people with a little common sense know that salt in the wild is always a material that needs to be protected, and the price of this thing in the Feron Continent is very expensive, especially the impurity-free sea salt in the Kalul bag, which was actually sold for five gold coins per kilogram, which was like a robbery.
This is still the seaside, the origin of sea salt, if it is inland, it is more expensive, at least fifteen gold coins per kilogram, although this world because of the existence of mages, purification technology has long existed, but because it is a mage's technology, ordinary people can not apply it at all, so the cost of sea salt purification is more expensive than sea salt itself.
However, in order to ensure that the players can ensure good physical condition, Karul still gritted his teeth and bought the best, as for those bargains with a kilogram of gold coins mixed with sand, forget it. Once you don't want to eat it, it will affect your combat effectiveness, and Karul is not willing to save on it even if she picks the door again. 、
Karul's thought was very simple, the world is the biggest eat, and if you don't eat enough, you can't do anything.
"Damn! Every time I put salt in food, it felt like someone was cutting my flesh with a knife. Karol grabbed a small bite, spilled it into the soup, and muttered to himself.
"Hah! Don't worry too much about what's outside of you. What's more, this mission has paid a lot of money, if we can complete the task, we will be rich, and you can still get the title of baron at that time, so don't care about this little money. Cheryl teased with a teasing face.
And the KGB nodded violently, his eyes were now completely attracted by the food in the pot, and he didn't know if he heard Cheryl's words clearly, so he nodded violently.
On the other side, the warrior monk Karan, who was on guard, also laughed when he heard this, and he said teasingly: "Alas, it is indeed the 'Karul who picks the door', and he is going to be a baron, and he is still thinking about these small money, and he is not afraid that other people's little girls (referring to Cerlie Lef) will laugh at you." ”
Karul glared at the warrior monk brother angrily: "Bastard, don't compare me to your brothers, you are a believer in the God of Suffering, and you don't need any weapons and armor, as long as you have a sackcloth that can cover your body." But I still have to support my family, and you know how much the KGB eats. There wasn't enough to feed his big belly. ”
As the saying goes, if you don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. Since he often went to the market to buy necessary supplies, maintain armor, repair weapons, etc., he knew how terrible the cost was.
"Moreover, there are so many people doing this task, if we don't complete the task in the end, then we will completely lose our lives!" In this mission, although everyone involved has a reward, but it also depends on the detail of the map, Karul They have drawn a lot now, but Karul knows that the map they draw, others must have also drawn it, and the reward he can get is definitely not much, and a few hundred gold are lucky.
In fact, if he hadn't been forced to do anything, Karul wouldn't have wanted to take on this task at all, and the dangers in the depths of the sewers were no joke. But thinking that his orphans and widows were suffering in the hospital bed and needed a lot of money for treatment, he could only try his luck.
Karul is not from Ascotra, he is here purely to visit the widow of his companion, who was his former adventurer who was torn to pieces by monsters in order to save him, so he can't leave his widow alone.
Before, Karul sent them money every month, but recently, the letters that used to be returned after every time he sent money were gone, this time Karul was very worried, so he took his companion to Askatra, and sure enough, this really confirmed his fear, the family was sick, and very sick.
He is not from Askatra, although he has been here a few times, but in the end, he is not familiar with the place, and the way to get money is not wide, and it happens that the council has issued this task, so he can only try his luck.
Don't look at a few hundred gold coins that sound like a lot, but in fact, some normal expenses and preliminary preparations can leave six or seven achievements are good, and the other four people still have to work for nothing, and I don't know if the money is enough to cure the disease, anyway, the priest said that this disease is very troublesome.
Fortunately, his companions understood Karul's difficulties, and they had said before this mission, not to be rewarded, and even to comfort him, if they completed the mission, Karul would be a baron, and they could beat him every day, and they would never have to sleep in the open again.
The previous words were actually not simple ridicule, but also had a certain element of comfort in them.
The elder brother of the warrior monks, Karan, heard this, laughed and said, "I think we will definitely be able to get rich this time, so you should put your heart in your stomach." ”
As for the younger brother of the warrior monk, Charon was not as cheerful as Karan, he rarely spoke, and when he heard his brother's words, he just nodded his head to show his support for his brother's words.
Hearing Karan's words, Karul only felt a heat in his chest. He is not very successful in his life, but what makes him most proud is the friends he has made over the years. For the sake of their own responsibilities, they resolutely helped him do such a dangerous task regardless of the return, what is a friend if this is not a friend?
Exploring the ancient sewers is not a small danger, with countless traps and monsters, as well as a labyrinthine terrain that can kill you at any time if you are not careful.
"Ahem, Uncle Karul, thanks to you saving me this time, when I go back, I'll give you a magic item as payment." When Serilee heard these words, although she did not understand the underlying reason, she also saw that Karol was poor, and she wanted to repay them, so she brought it up.
In the eyes of Selly Love, a good person should have a good reward, and she herself was avenged by others, so she naturally didn't want this kind of thing to happen to her benefactor again, so she proposed such a reward.
Although it is not impossible to give money directly, Selile Love feels that they may not accept it, and she can see that they are all good people. So temporarily replaced with magic items, you must know that even the lowest-level magic items are very easy to sell for a thousand gold coins. Besides, can anyone refuse a magic item?
It seems that after this incident, Seilelev has also grown a little and knows how to think about others.
"No! How can I do that, if I don't save you like that, I'm still human? That's what I'm supposed to do, how can I take your money, so what's going on? I didn't save you because of this, but because I wanted to save you. ”
Karul was short of money, very poor, but he was not willing to allow his good deeds to become profit-making. I have to say that Karul is a good person in the traditional sense, who does good deeds without expecting anything in return, although he is stingy, but he is not greedy for money. Even if he is poor, he is not willing to let his soul be condemned, he has hands and feet, where can he not make money?
He has always earned his share of the money he should have, and it is because of such kindness and persistence that those of his companions are willing to risk their lives for him, regardless of the return. You must know that with their strength, they can completely seek better treatment.
There is no need to do things under the poor ghost of Karul, Karan and Charon are both thirteenth-level warriors, and Cheryl is also a level 14 ranger, although he is not a high-level professional, but this strength is not weak, and he can make more money by joining other adventure teams. There is no need to be so strapped at all, and even a little salt has to be carefully calculated.
Hearing Karul's words, both the Karan brothers and Cheryl nodded in agreement. That's their head.
Seeing this, Cerileph was a little anxious, Karul They can be said to be a lifesaver for her, if such a great kindness is really not seen by Cerileph, then she will be very uncomfortable in her heart, good people should have good rewards, this is what the gods taught her.
Seeing that Karol was so serious, Celie Love knew that she had to change her approach.
