Chapter 69: Before leaving
"Old blacksmith! Come out and do business! ”
Yu Yi walked into Vanade's equipment workshop, but except for a few scattered customers in the store, he didn't see the old blacksmith, and he was not surprised by the old blacksmith's business model. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Apparently, the blacksmith was busy in the furnace room again at this time. As an old customer, he was not polite and shouted loudly outside.
He had come here to fulfill the commission given to him by Mobert, though it was not a task. After waking up this morning, he took Bai Siling to look for the old blacksmith, and by the way, he also needed to hand over his equipment to the other party for repair. After a few battles in the mine, the durability of almost all equipment has dropped to a low level, especially the green sword, which has already shown serious cracks.
"Boy! It's you, I haven't been here for a few days. Get your gear out, and let me see how you're torturing these poor fellows again. The blacksmith who came out of the rear saw at a glance the old acquaintance who had come to the door, and he took off the wet towel wrapped around his head and wiped the sweat from his head.
With a bang, Yu Yi put the equipment that he and Bai Siling needed to repair on the wooden counter, most of which was his equipment. Seeing this, the blacksmith prepared to take over the equipment piece by piece. But he was stopped by him: "Wait, in addition to repairing equipment today, I have something to talk to you about." ”
Vanid didn't pay much attention to it, and while checking the equipment on the table, he said without raising his head: "Say, it's better not to be another boring joke." ”
"Do you know about the riots in the mines?" Yu Yi was not verbose, and asked directly. To the old man in front of him, the night cry mining area was undoubtedly a sensitive topic, and this sentence successfully changed the blacksmith's attitude.
"I know that the captured miners rioted. But, aren't you going to suppress them too? At this point, Vanade's expression was no longer as relaxed as before: "But it is true that this kind of turmoil should not exist...... Don't look at me with that look, I mean it. ”
He fiddled with the bruised green sword a few times, and then said, "There are a few young men who provided me with ore, and they have also been poisoned by those thugs. A few lucky people who came back alive said that the thugs had become completely thoughtless walking corpses. ”
"If that's the case, those mines are no longer worthy of sympathy. I will not be angry with you without distinction, even if one of the thugs who was killed may be my son. The old blacksmith spoke with such a firm look in his eyes that his words felt like the hammer he swung when he was forging.
These words made Yu Yi stunned, until Bai Siling beside him pulled the corner of his clothes with a small movement. Only then did he realize that he was clearly here to tell a good news today, but at this time, the scene was a little solemn.
"Uncle, you're thinking too much." He smiled and said, "What I want to tell you is that your son, Mobert, is still alive. Until now, he was alive, and he was not reduced to a tool for Urton to use. ”
"What?" Such news made the old blacksmith doubt his ears for a moment.
"Your son is alive and not dead." Yu Yi repeated it so that Vanade could get his wish.
Remembering that he had never mentioned his son's name, the old blacksmith finally believed it, and of course it was the best result. "What about others? Why not go home? ”
Yu Yi thought for a while before he spoke: "I don't know if you have told you about those sources of goods and the appearance of those thugs." ”
Vanid immediately understood what might happen to his son now, "Has he become one of those nondescript guys?" Vaneid asked.
"You can say that, but he still remembers who he is. He was the one who helped us kill the leader of the uprising. Yu Yi also replied truthfully.
"Really?" Vanade looked at the other party suspiciously, but could not see any trace of lying.
Every word he said was the truth, so in the face of doubts, Yu Yi was still indifferent: "He said that when he returned to his normal appearance, he would naturally go home." ”
"Anyway, thank you for telling me the news." Even if he didn't see his son standing in front of him alive, such news was enough to add a fire to the furnace in the old blacksmith's heart.
And Yu Yi pulled the old man again: "Wait, uncle, I haven't finished yet." He pulled out the purple fangs, "This, Mobert asked me to pass it on to you, you put it away." ”
When Vaned's first sight of the purple fangs flashed in his eyes, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. But when he took the fangs, the texture and touch of his hands made his pupils shrink involuntarily. He immediately found a small razor and gently shaved it on the fangs.
He moves very carefully, as if he is taking care of a young baby who has just been born, for fear that he will accidentally hurt it. With just a slight scrape, a layer of purple material on the outside of the fangs was easily scraped off, revealing the crystal clear body inside.
The razor only made an extremely small cut, and then immediately stopped. The old blacksmith clenched his fangs tightly, raised his head and muttered with a somewhat wandering gaze: "Mobert, he really found ......"
"Uncle, are you okay?" Yu Yi saw that Vanade's appearance was a little weird, and he couldn't help asking.
This opening woke him up, and the old blacksmith began to push him out: "Let's go, let's start from the beginning, the equipment shop is closed." He repeated the same words to the customers in the store.
"Uncle, don't mind. I helped your son bring things back, and you can't turn your head and turn your face and deny anyone. I haven't ...... my equipment yet" Before Yu Yi's words fell, the few pieces of equipment that had just been delivered to the other party were thrown back. "Damn, I wouldn't have given you anything if I knew I would!"
Just as he turned to leave, he was stopped by the old blacksmith. I saw that the other party stopped his gaze on the broken green sword in his hand, and said, "Boy, put away your stinky face." If you come back to me in three days, I promise to give you a gift that will satisfy you! ”
"The gift is free, you can discount it more when I come here in the future......" When Yu Yi spoke, the old blacksmith had already impatiently pushed their master and servant out of the door.
Almost at the same time, the store, which was not a large number of customers, had been blasted out of the store. And at the last moment when the old blacksmith closed the door, he didn't forget to tell Yu Yi outside the door: "Remember, three days later!" Don't be late! ”
Outside the equipment workshop, everyone else dispersed, only Yu Yi was still standing in place and looking up at the signboard of the equipment workshop. "What?" He touched his head and turned back to Bai Siling and said, "This guy, no wonder business is sluggish, and he actually rushes out to catch up with customers." ”
'Master, I suppose that purple fangs you gave him must be something remarkable, at least very important to him. A smiling Bai Siling wrote on the paper, knowing that what the deed owner needed at this time was not to add oil and vinegar to the agreement.
Yu Yi nodded approvingly, but what could be so special about the two fangs removed from Erton's bald head? Raised his eyebrows: "Anyway, we should know the answer in three days." As for now, we can only find another place to repair the equipment. ”
The master and servant walked through the streets, and of course, the task of finding the blacksmith shop and equipment workshop on the map fell on the head of Bai Siling behind him. Wildfire City is the main city, so Yu Yi, who has lived here for a few months, now has to bring a map of the city when he goes out.
At this moment, there was a crisp sound in his pockets, the movement of light and shadow stones. He took out the Light and Shadow Stone, on which the words "Mercenary Guild" appeared. Is it about this mining mission?' I didn't even bring a finger back, so what could the union do to me? ’
With doubts in his heart, he still connected the light and shadow circuit. "Hello."
"Hello, Mr. Cruise, we have received your mission reward, please come and retrieve it in the near future."
It sounded familiar, even though it had been a month since the last time I heard it. Another inexplicable task reward receipt notice, Yu Yidu almost forgot such a thing, but today it was a wake-up call for him, and then recalled the last time he received a call from the trade union, exactly a month ago.
Who is giving him these nameless gifts? Unknown. But it must be admitted that the box of kyanite last time really helped him a lot, otherwise he would really not be able to supply a large amount of soul power consumed during this period of time.
Thinking of this, Yu Yi finally decided to go to the union to get the things back, and not take them for nothing. "Bai Siling, can you find a place to repair equipment by yourself?" He turned back to the girl and asked.
The blonde archer held the map of Wildfire City and nodded obediently as he looked at the deed.
"I'll leave the repair of the equipment to you, I'm going to the Mercenary Guild." For today's Bai Siling, Yu Yi has nothing to worry about, especially her own wariness of humans can protect her, "After repairing the equipment, you can go home and wait for me." But I guess I'll go home before you do, after all, I'm just going to get something. ”
After receiving the task of the deed master, the elf girl raised her willow eyebrows and nodded and agreed, as if promising that she would complete the mission.
"Go ahead." Habitually touching her head, Yu Yi said. Although he is also a companion who is close to each other, unlike Xi'ang, Bai Siling is a hero he cultivated, and only when facing her, Yu Yi, the deed owner, will show this kind of caring appearance.
After the explanation, he himself turned around and walked towards the mercenary union. Compared to before, this time he was also experienced, after entering the union, he went straight to the fourth floor, and after a short wait, he got the tin box containing the reward.
This time, however, the feeling of the tin box in my hand was very different from the last time. It was obviously much lighter, no longer as heavy as last time, and even with the movement of his hands, he could feel the shaking of things inside.
"That's it?" Yu Yi shook the iron box and confirmed to the waiter. Because the reward he got last time was too rich, the contrast between the two times made him feel a little bit of a loss.
"Yes, sir." The waiter said.
"Oh." Only then did he put away the tin box with great interest, and although he was a little curious, he did not open it immediately. After all, on the fourth floor of the entire mercenary union, no one would behave so anxiously and ridiculously, and of course, there must be a reason why the wealth is not exposed. But in short, he wouldn't want to be the first to make an exception.
Leaving the guild, it was not yet noon. If all goes well, we should be able to leave in the afternoon. Walking on the way home, Yu Yi thought so. As for what he is going to, it is naturally the "Yunxing Jungle" where the legend hides unicorns.
He can't know everything, but he wants to know the secrets and legends of the unicorn. Go to the library in the city and ask the "scholar" players, and you will know that the price is only a few silver coins.
"Hey! The Shieldman! You wait. ”
At this time, a loud voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Stop! You're still leaving! ”
Yu Yi, who was half a beat slower, stopped his pace and looked back when the other party shouted for the second time. Then he pointed uncertainly at himself and made a questioning look at the man who shouted. The whole street was full of people, and he was not the only one who walked.
"Yes, that's you!" The big man with a brown beard on his chin walked over menacingly.
"What? Robbery? Yu Yi also looked up and asked unhurriedly, in broad daylight, he was not afraid that the other party would make any unusual moves, and the guards patrolling around him were not easy to clean up. What's more, even if he only has a shield on his back, he is not ambiguous when he moves.
One hand stopped the man in time, and the other man in a coarse cloth robe spoke, "No, we just want to do business with you." ”
Seeing the outfit of the man in the long robe, Yu Yi could judge that the other party, Dazhi, was a swordsman. Such a calf-length caftan should be the most standard attire for swordsmen. "What business?" He asked.
"Can you give us the fruit of your power?" The swordsman asked.
"What fruit of power?"
The big man on the side couldn't help but interject again: "Don't pretend to be stupid, we all saw you take the iron box from the fourth floor." We've both been staring at that task for a month, and you kid actually ended up intervening! ”
Only then did Yu Yi understand that the other party was talking about the task reward he had just received. Originally, he didn't care too much, but now that he sees that someone attaches so much importance to it, he naturally won't easily change hands. "I'm sorry, no matter if this task is not labeled with you, I completed it, and this reward is naturally mine. Also, I don't have any intention of changing it right now. ”
When the swordsman heard the answer, he didn't say anything more, turned around and wanted to leave. And his sturdy companion shouted before leaving: "Waste, you know what kind of skill is hiding behind your hero?" What are you without that assassin and orc apothecary hero of yours? ”
The two turned around and returned in vain, but the stupid big man's last scolding words made Yu Yi's heart skip a beat. Turn around and walk towards Wildfire City South......
