Act 56: The King of the Underworld (Part 1)
It took a lot of effort for Oldham to take the little girl who was hanging in the air, "Although this short and fat old dwarf had a straight face and a pair of thick eyebrows, he was about to wrinkle into a ball, and he muttered vigorously that the other party was too bold to do this, completely disregarding the danger, and how much trouble and trouble it caused to himself, an old man.
But at the end, the old dwarf burst out from under his beard and said, "Little one, it didn't hurt anything, did you?" ”
"Ahh
Coming down from mid-air, Little Roman patted his little xiōng chest first as soon as his feet hit the ground, let out a big breath, and said happily: "It's really dangerous!" ”
It's just that she may not be able to see that little thrilling look on her face, but a little blushing "with a small excited expression."
Oldham glanced at her, thinking to herself, you know it's thrilling. But he was half choked to death in the next sentence, and only heard the merchant lady say with great interest: "What an interesting thing! ”
As soon as the old dwarf heard this, he became stern and taught him seriously: "Little girl, it's not good for you to think like this, it's too dangerous!" If I hadn't come, wouldn't you have been hurt? ”
"Old man, you're here." Roman replied as a matter of course.
Oldham scratched his head, thinking to himself that this ding, I am afraid that this statement is not quite right. So he followed the good yòu and said: "That's the case in case, and it's not in case isn't it?" Besides, little girl, you have caused a lot of trouble to an old man like me by doing this, "Not to mention delaying my old man's drinking"
"My aunt said that drinking too much is not good for your health!" Miss Merchant's mouth interjected.
The old dwarf suddenly felt a little bigger, why did this little guy's little brain think so differently than ordinary people, and he began to wonder if it was a wise decision to save this little girl from above, maybe he should have pretended not to see anything in the first place, and went to drink his own wine.
No, maybe you shouldn't have looked up at all.
So Oldham was a little annoyed," and he hurriedly waved his hand: "Now we are not discussing this issue, and besides, what is a dwarf who does not drink!" Little one, your aunt ......", the old dwarf thought for a moment, "I think it's a bit unreasonable to say bad things about people behind my back, not to mention that the other party is still a woman."
So he changed his words and said: "All in all, ** things are ** things, you see, a normal person won't grab the chuáng single and dàng in the alley behind the hotel, right?" The old dwarf Chunchun taught, but he subconsciously felt that something sounded wrong with his words.
But he thought about it for a while, but couldn't find what the problem was, so he shook his head and threw the strange thought away, only to think that the good time of drinking in the afternoon seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him.
Because the little girl was chattering again.
But the Oldham sheep did not realize that he had been transferred to the other way of thinking, and so the merchant lady had to use her experience to defeat the old dwarf.
Roman thought for a while and nodded: "That's right," but she wrinkled her good-looking little eyebrows: "But Roman is also forced to be helpless, and I'm also in a hurry to go to the mine!" ”
The old dwarf was stunned.
"What are you doing in the mines?" "Women are not allowed in the mines," he said. ”
"Because the person Roman likes is in the mine, and the mine is earthquake, Roman is in a hurry", the merchant girl looked at the dwarf and suddenly blinked: "That's right! Old man, can you take Roman to the mines? ”
"You don't know the way?" Oldham's small eyes widened.
"Seems to be." She never seemed to realize that this was a strict question.
Obviously, "This eldest lady is once again guilty of acting first and then thinking about the plan." Before she was ready to do this, she had already forgotten all about the mess she had done when she was a child.
There is a saying that a man cannot make the same mistake twice in his life, but our merchant lady is obviously capable of making all sorts of mistakes on two identical mistakes.
But this time Oldham laughed, and of course it was the old dwarf laughing. He laughed and laughed so hard that he muttered, "It's funny, it's funny!" This is the first time I've heard of such a reckless plan of action, even the most reckless mountain dwarf, little girl! Even a stupid orc, you have to plan well before a hunt! ”
Roman agreed: "Because the orcs have a proverb called "uimauaanemont," and she stammered, "It means that a shrewd hunter is not necessarily smart!" ”
"That's the cunning of the beast." The old dwarf immediately shook his head: "No", who taught you this sentence. ”
"It's Auntie."
"No, no, no!" Oldham felt like he had been caught in it: "I mean, these two things don't go well at all!" We're saying that a person can't be too reckless, and it has nothing to do with whether the orcs are smart or not" But he molded his beard and suddenly frowned: "Wait, what did you just say, there was an earthquake in the mine?" ”
"That's right."
"How did I not know?"
Roman looked at him with big eyes.
The old dwarf then realized that he had asked a stupid question, "But if the earthquake had happened an hour ago, he realized that he seemed to be on his lunch break at that time."
In fact, Oldham should have been in the mine at this time, but the last time he drank and missed the time to enter the mine, in fact, this is not the first time~ However, the old dwarf once helped the clerk of the mining area solve a little trouble in personal problems, so he won the trust of the young nobleman today, "As for whether he wants to go to work in the mining area, the other party doesn't care."
There is no big problem with more people and less people in the mining area.
Therefore, Oldham simply did not bother to come down in his spare time, and the scale fish in the forest, drinking small wine was his pursuit as a dwarf.
But the little girl's words piqued Oldham's interest, and the old dwarf had always known a secret buried beneath the silver mines: "He learned the secret from somewhere, and he came all the way here to wait for his chance."
To his disappointment, however, the tunnels have not been going down since the workers of the Schavrund mine dug through the passage to the Great Hive more than a decade ago, and the secrets that he knew were buried beneath the rock formations of Mount Grahar had to stay there quietly.
Although the old dwarf had asked Ogkins more than once if he could reopen the mining work on the fifth level, but all of them were shelved for safety reasons, and the young clerk was not worried about the safety of the workers, but simply did not want to cause trouble for himself.
Over time, however, after a few years in Schaflund, Oldham had grown discouraged.
But at this time, his heart moved faintly.
The old dwarf muttered in his heart and glanced at the little girl: "Okay, okay, I'll take you to the mine, but I said it in advance."
"I understand!" Little Roman replied in a very crisp tone, without the slightest bit of mud and water.
"But I'm not done yet!"
"Yes! But anyway, old man, whatever you say, I'll answer the same way! So it doesn't matter if it's a little earlier or a little later! ”
"You confess," the old dwarf sighed, "but it's quite flattering." ”
Seeing Roman, Oldham couldn't help but think of the energetic little girls in his hometown, "He grew up in the tribe of golden dwarves when he was young, although his hometown is far less novel and varied than humans, and he is not so skilled in winemaking, but in his opinion, their little girls are much more energetic than human girls."
It was this little girl who made his eyes shine, and although he had a great headache, he also had the right appetite.
Of course, appetite is appetite, but the old dwarf has instinctively realized that if this merchant lady's xìng is messed up, it is estimated that she is likely to cause a lot of trouble for him.
So as he walked, he said, "All in all, the third chapter of the covenant is a very important matter, little girl, do you understand?" ”
Little Roman nodded respectfully, "But immediately there was a new question: "But does it mean that women can't enter the mines?" ”
"Don't interrupt, little girl!" Oldham frowned, "Of course he can't take Roman into the open, in fact, even he can't enter the mine himself at this time, but it doesn't matter, he has been preparing for this plan for a long time, and some of the arrangements in advance can also be put to use now."
He dug a secret tunnel on the outskirts of the mine that led to the mine, and he was the supervisor of the mine, "and he would not suspect anything if someone else touched him inside."
As for this little girl, it's a little troublesome, but it's just about makeup.
"Yes," the merchant lady asked, following as she followed, "but old man, are the mountain dwarves all reckless?" Old man, are you also a mountain dwarf? ”
"Of course I'm not a mountain dwarf, those reckless guys have nothing to do with me, I'm ......", the short and fat dwarf suddenly stopped and coughed heavily: "Don't interrupt!" ”
"Oh!" The battle underground has come to an end"When the last of the rock beasts turned into shards, Brando reached out of the mine to find the bodies of some miners, whom the man identified as the remains of his former companions.
The miner, who was rescued by Brando, "followed them all the way after seeing the strength of the young man, even though Brando advised him to temporarily hide on the third floor of the relatively safer mine to wait for rescue, but the latter shook his head and refused after thinking about it."
He felt that it was much safer to follow these two people in comparison.
