Chapter 35: Wood Healing Elements
Canais took a deep breath, not afraid of Hu Tian's questioning, and resolutely clasped his right hand in front of his chest, "The great sun god never goes against his will!" β
"No problem." Hu Tian smiled slightly, not annoyed by Canes' refusal, "I'll give you three days, if you change your mind, you can come to me at any time." Whether you promise it or not, these coins are yours. β
Hu Tian put the money bag in his hand again.
There are a lot of gold coins in the money bag, and Hu Tian has no concept of the purchasing power of coins in this world, but Xiao Qiao Mai, in order to get two gold coins to live, has to swallow humiliation and sell his dignity, which makes him really unbearable.
"Adult ......"
Canais nodded gratefully at Hu Tian, but after a little hesitation, he took out two gold coins from his money bag, and returned the rest to Hu Tian, "I borrowed it from you, and I will pay it back!" β
In the few histories that Hu Tian knew about the Mohatbi knights, few people actively refused the courtesy's solicitation. The reason was not only the fear of the punishment of breaking the law, but also the fact that he became a servant of the nobility, who could be paid and sheltered, and did not have to worry about food rations every day.
After all, many times, becoming a nobleman is just a distant luxury. For the poor, who are already poor, survival is always more important than anything else.
It always takes more courage to reject a favor than to accept it, and many times, it comes at the cost of life.
"My lordβI have a reluctant request."
Canais didn't take two steps with little Qiaomai on his back, and then stopped, and stopped talking a little.
"You know, the ghetto has always been the darkest corner of Feynman City, and indeed of Mohatbi, where there is no divine light, no patronage. Except for the occasional caravan runner and the mining area of the aristocratic lords, we can only eat and wait for death...... You're the first knight in all years to take in a ghetto as a servant! β
"So, sir...... I implore you, don't give up on the people here! β
Canais's eyes showed a scorching light like the sun, he didn't stop, he didn't plead in a low voice, and there was only one sentence left for Hu Tian-
We are the people of the sun god and we will never back down!
"As you wish."
Hu Tian looked at his back and said slowly.
"Canais is a miserable child...... What a kind man, sir! β
A familiar voice interrupted Hu Tian's thoughts-
Old man Barry, with his trademark bronze wrinkles, said loudly from afar: "As long as the sun does not disappear, old Barry will always follow in your footsteps and will always be your servant!" β
This shriveled old man knows the essence of sycophancy, and can always say the most comfortable words at the most appropriate time.
"Oh...... I dripped, and Carter and Scott were beaten...... This is definitely the biggest news in the favelas of Feynman City! Sir, this can't be your handiwork, right? Sir, in less than two days, you will be famous! β
The wrinkles on Old Man Barry's face were flattened in shock, and he gave Hu Tian a thumbs up again and again. Then, his eyes rolled and he lowered his voice with concern.
However, Carter's cousin Gauder was a knight in the city, working for Archduke Ferdinand, and was very famous in knightly circles. He wouldn't watch his cousin get hurt...... Moreover, I heard that on this expedition to the original ruins of Hallilo, Gauder got a treasure to be presented to Archduke Ferdinand at the knight selection ceremony. In this way, he will be more difficult, so you better be careful, sir......"
"Hmm."
Hu Tian threw the reins of the horse in his hand to him, and his brows still did not stretch. He was not afraid of fighting, but he was bleeding and wounded, and he was worried about Xu Noyi's safety.
She didn't wake up for a minute, and Hu Tian's heart seemed to have a knot that had not been untied, and the clapper bricks were not happy.
"Is the matter settled?"
"It's all settled, sir, the tavern proprietress has some friendship with me, I heard that you are the boss of my old Barry, and you have arranged the best room on the second floor. I'll take you there! β
The old man Barry tied the horse directly to the horse stake outside the door of the tavern, and let a knight lord be a horse watchman for himself for half a day, and the little old man's mood was still very happy.
Tobacco is an absolute bestseller here. Mohatbi is not suitable for tobacco cultivation, and it is only in the depths of the canyon near the Falcon Plateau that there are villages that depend on tobacco cultivation for their livelihood. But around there, there are often shadow hawk bandits and dead souls, and few people are willing to risk their lives for a few gold coins.
Old man Barry is the only tobacco runner.
Not everyone could afford to smoke cigars in Mohatbi, and it was a high-end item that only the upper class of the empire could afford. Every time the old man Barry brings tobacco leaves, there is a unique natural burnt flavor, which once made the "Old Barry" brand a hot item.
It's just that the little old man has a very strange temper, but he is only willing to sell to the poor in the slum at a low price, which makes him have a good network in the slum, and at the same time he is "remembered" by many people.
"To be a man, you have to have backbone!" Old man Barry took two puffs of the long cigarette pouch in his mouth, and smiled at Hu Tianhehe, "Master, you said yes, right?" β
"Open the door." Hu Tianheng hugged Xu Nuoyi and stood outside the room with a face as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Oooh." Old man Barry shrank his neck in embarrassment, hurriedly pushed the door of the room open, stayed outside the door respectfully, and dodged away to let Hu Tian in.
Life in the slums was simple and low-key, and Hu Tian stayed in his room for two whole days, and Xu Noyi's body still showed no signs of waking up.
What's more, her face is also getting redder, which is not the ruddy color that a normal person should have, but it seems that under the skin, a ball of boiling magma is burning.
Hu Tian condensed his battle qi and put his hand on her forehead to try to cross over.
But as soon as he put down his hand, a powerful force completely rebounded the battle qi he had condensed!
"What's going on!"
Hu Tian's hands were shaking, and the sudden force was like an incomparably strong gate, completely separating Xu Nuoyi from the outside world.
Noi ......
Looking at Xu Nuoyi, whose situation was getting worse and worse, Hu Tian's brows twisted into a pimple.
At this time-
"My lord, the doctor is here!"
Old man Barry trotted downstairs with small steps, followed by an equally panting old man. "This is the best doctor in Feyman City, and if he can't save it, he probably can't save it. Lord......"
Seeing Hu Tian's gloomy face, Barry knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly closed his mouth and retreated to the door of the room.
Old man Dowcott had a gray beard and a coat on his back, and the wrinkles on his face crisscrossed like the cracks of the plateau blown by the wind. Looks older than Barry. However, his eyes were bright and confident.
"I've seen the knight, let me see Madame's illness first......"
Docot was not polite, and walked directly to Xu Noyi, who was lying on the bed. Presumably Barry had told him all about the situation along the way.
He pinched a transparent crystal ball, tapped it lightly with his five fingers, and a trace of green battle qi element was like a hundred-year-old pine cone wine, tumbling and flowing in the crystal ball, instantly blooming with a bright and soft light, wrapping Xu Nuoyi in it.
Morphosis of war?
Hu Tian stared at Dawcot, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
