Chapter 010. The mood of old Moulton
Even though it was past seven o'clock in the morning, there was no day or night for this street in the outer harbor of Grey Mist. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info drunkards who had drunk like mud last night were staggering out against the wall, and there were also guys with various purposes walking in quickly. Day and night are no different here except for the sun, and the Sea Lance Tavern is open for business without stopping for day and night.
In front of the thick oak door, two extremely burly men were sitting on chairs in the corner, talking and laughing with each other, and two heavy short steel rods were sitting at their hands, and looking at their eyes as they talked and laughed and swept the situation around them, it was clear that they were not just sitting there. And when they saw Levi and the nine sailors coming over, a smile appeared on their faces, and they stood up and gestured to Levi happily, and said with a smile: "Mr. Levi, the boss has not missed you in the past two days." ”
"That old fellow at Moulton didn't go to the inner city to find a few lonely middle-aged ladies and talk about his bravery in his youth?"
Seeing the smiling and cordial appearance of the two strong men in front of the door, Levi also nodded to show his kindness. After all, it is a relatively chaotic gray fog city, and those drunken sailors are all guys who are not afraid of death, if there are not a few strong and fierce people to come to the town, the sea spear tavern does not know how many times it has been smashed. And Levi looked at the dim appearance in the crack in the door, and he also shook his head and couldn't help laughing: "That old guy's heart is even more like a young man than me." ”
This joke immediately made the two strong men laugh, but they didn't dare to take this conversation casually, but took the initiative to gently push the thick oak door open for Levi with great respect, and after a few casual jokes, Levi was let into the bar. But they chatted with the sailors, and when Levi walked in, two or three sailors took the initiative to stay and laugh and chat with them, boasting to each other that the relationship was also excellent.
The outer harbor of Grey Mist is not a quiet place, especially in this neighborhood of taverns and inns, where the unscrupulous sailors on the seas don't care about their silver coins, alcohol and women. It is quite common for a fight to occur immediately after a disagreement, and when the guys with a grudge meet each other, it is not uncommon to see the two sides draw knives and slash each other, and there have been several fights in the Sea Lance Tavern, and Levi's sailors helped to suppress it, and their fierce appearance also left a deep impression on the thugs in the tavern, and the relationship between the two sides began to be harmonious.
However, not everyone can do anything recklessly, let alone the thieves who steal and steal, or the girls who like to spend a good night and disappear with their things in their hands, are absolutely not allowed in the Sea Lance Tavern. Even in the Outer Harbor of Grey Mist City, the largest group of people in the Rotten Algae Gang at the moment, have been far away from the Sea Spear Tavern in this alley for a long time. It is even rumored that when the tavern first opened four years ago, more than 20 people died the next night when the Rotten Algae Gang came to find fault, and the Rotten Algae Gang never came to the tavern again to collect protection money.
A faint noise echoed in the tavern, and at the forty or so tables on the first floor and the long bar, drunken sailors were still pouring themselves with liquor, while talking inarticulate to their partners or escort girls. Touching the tip of his nose, Levi, who likes tranquility, stood in place and turned his head to glance at it, but a slightly pungent fragrant wind came to the side, and at the same time, a lady dressed boldly came over with a smile, bent down gently, and held the two huge handfuls on his chest without leaving a trace, and laughed softly in surprise: "Hi, dear Mr. Levi, it's a pleasure to see you again." ”
"Of course, I'm happy too."
A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, Li Wei couldn't help but be a little allergic to the pungent fragrance, and the fingers on the tip of his nose were also slightly rubbed, he took out four or five small silver coins in his pocket and put them in the deep snow white on the chest of the wine girl, and at the same time gestured to the sailors behind him, and also gently broke free from the body of the wine girl, and smiled softly: "You can drink whatever you like, and it will be recorded in my account today." ”
"Roar." The sailors behind Levi suddenly showed a smile that only a man could understand, and the two stout sailors caught the extremely large escort girl one to the left and one to the right, ignoring the delicate man's resentful gaze, and also blocked her and Levig. But the bulging muscles of the two of them also pressed tightly against the body of the escort girl, whispered to each other and laughed in their ears, and pulled her half-off and half-pushed into the corner, and in a short time there were gasps and screams.
This is a common thing in the taverns of the outer harbor of Grey Mist, a group of sailors who have just come down from the sea don't care if it's a room or not, and the edge of the hall of the Sea Lance Tavern is also a small half-hidden room, which is exactly what this group of sailors who urgently need to relax and have fun. In fact, if you look closely, you can find that many people in this tavern are kneading the snow white of the wine girl in their arms, and they are walking out of those private rooms with a look of enjoyment.
The other sailors also dispersed and quickly disappeared into the dimly lit tavern, after all, they had been hungry for a week, and they were in dire need of enjoying the long-lost beauty in the sea lance tavern. However, they still didn't leave Li Wei too far, and they faintly maintained Li in the middle, they had already developed their own tacit understanding, even in this chaotic tavern situation, once they encountered any problems, they could quickly form support.
"A cup of Spider Queen, sweetened."
Arriving at the bar, Levi tapped his fingers lightly on the table as he turned and sat down on a chair next to him. A candle had been lit and was being placed on the table, and an old man with gray hair was looking at a thick book with his head down, while the corners of Levi's mouth were smiling, and he snapped his fingers at the bar, pointing at the old man in front of him who seemed to be unaware and smiled: "Give him the best ale, count it on my account." ”
"Rich?" At this time, the old man who was still looking at the books in his hand slowly raised his head, the gray-white beard seemed to add a bit of vicissitudes to the square face, and the knife-like forehead lines also gave the big eyes a certain majestic look, but looking at Levi's eyes flashed, but instead turned into a kind of twilight unique to middle-aged and elderly people, even his voice was a little hoarse, and he snorted softly: "Two glasses of ale, count on his account." ”
The bartender next to him seemed to be ready, as the stoppers of the two small wooden barrels on the wine rack behind him were opened, the amber wine flowed into the wooden wine glasses, and came to the table with a tray and wooden wine glasses in one hand, without speaking, he put the two wooden wine glasses on the table with a very respectful expression, and at the same time gently picked up the candle and the book that the old man put on the table, still respectfully retreated to the back, and returned to the bar to wait for the next customer.
"Old Morton, is it possible that our meeting is just two glasses of ale?"
The corners of Levi's mouth also showed a smile, looking at the smiling eyebrows of the old man in front of him, he also relaxed his body to lie down on the back of the chair, picked up a glass of ale in front of him, took a sip of the amber liquid inside, and the sweet and slightly strong feeling suddenly spread all over his mouth with the feeling of wiping it with his tongue, and then slid down his throat, gently took a sip of wine, and shrugged with satisfaction: "Although your ale is really good." ”
The old man in front of him smiled slightly, brushed the gray hair of his sideburns with his hand, and his eyes were a little more proud, as if he had heard something worth boasting about, he reached out and also picked up the ale and shook it slowly, looking at Levi but smiled softly: "The North Whistling Sea, the South Whistling Sea, but no one can brew an ale with the same taste as mine." After a pause, the corners of his eyes widened slightly, and he said slowly with a smile: "This is one of my biggest secrets." ”
"Old Moulton, can it still be a secret to tell it?"
The sweet and slightly strong ale was swallowed in Levi's mouth, and the delicate taste made him feel the feeling of beer in his previous life, although there was less fine foam, he still raised his head and drank it all, and then exhaled a long breath with the smell of sweet wine, and then shrugged his shoulders to old Morton with satisfaction: "But I don't even know where the South Roaring Sea is, to be honest, I really want to go to the South Roaring Sea when I have the opportunity, it is said that there is a larger sea area over there." ”
Old Morton nodded slightly, and immediately a bartender came over to him, gently placed a full cup of ale in front of Levi, and took the empty cup with his hand, as if he had already prepared. And old Morton also smiled, poured a sip of the cup of ale in front of him, and said indifferently: "The wine-making technology of South Roaring Sea is really average, not to mention that it can compare to the ale I brewed." ”
