Chapter 171: The Tavernkeeper's Strange Commission

Looking up and down at the fat tavern owner, Lan Wu's curiosity came up. He turned his head to look at Ovila, and seeing that the latter had no objection, he nodded happily and said, "Okay, if it's not too troublesome, I can promise you." ”

"No trouble, no trouble." The tavern owner hurriedly shook his head like a rattle.

"Then sit down and talk." Lan Wu smiled and sat down again.

The tavernkeeper looked embarrassed, glanced back at the others in the tavern, and quickly withdrew his gaze like a thief. He stammered, squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, and lowered his voice to invite, "Your Excellency, it's best not to let anyone else hear about this. Can you go inside with me and talk about it in detail? ”

Lan Wu glanced at the fat man strangely. No one else can hear it. It's a weird thing. Professionals don't have so many secrets. This fat man, who is obviously a civilian, is so mysterious. He thought for a moment, then stood up again, and winked at Ovila.

"It's better for this adult to ...... too" The fat boss laughed dryly twice, and lowered his head weakly. He knew that his proposal was so abrupt that he didn't even dare to look at Ovella.

Oh, not even Oviera?

Lan Wule was happy, and nodded happily in agreement. This fat boss is very interesting. Don't know what kind of weird commission it is. He was even more curious about what was next.

The fat boss got Lan Wu's affirmation, and saw Ovira sit down silently, obviously acquiescing, and immediately walked in front to lead the way, leading Lan Wu into the backyard of the tavern.

The backyard of the tavern is huge. Kitchens and all that stuff are piled up here. A few waiters hurried back and forth, serving out plates of steaming dishes. There is also a firewood pile as high as a mountain in the corner of the yard. A little girl who looked badly malnourished was struggling to chop firewood with an axe that was about her height.

The little girl looked to be ten years old at most, and she was thin and yellow-skinned, like a child who had just escaped from a refugee camp. But she chops firewood meticulously and quite seriously. Apparently a diligent little girl.

"Your Excellency, could you please take her away?" The fat boss looked at Lan Wu and put forward his commission.

"Huh?" Lan Wu opened his mouth wide and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. This fat man also works part-time as a human trafficker? His gaze at the fat boss instantly turned cold.

Buying and selling human beings...... Don't you know that Lao Tzu hates human traffickers the most?

The fat boss saw that Lan Wu, who was smiling, changed his face in a blink of an eye, and hurriedly accompanied the smiling face, and explained crampedly: "Honorable lord, I am a proper person. I rescued her from a thug who specializes in human trafficking. I don't know where she came from and want to send her home. But she wouldn't say anything, and she wouldn't leave. I had to leave her here to do some chores. You are a distinguished and powerful professional. I can only ask you to send her home. ”

Lan Wu's expression softened. It's not about the soul of human trafficking. He smiled, not expecting to take the commission. The little girl herself didn't want to go. No matter how powerful you are, you can't take it away forcibly. What's the difference between that and the soul of human trafficking?

Seeing that Lan Wu didn't plan to take this commission, the fat boss was so anxious that he was about to cry. With a sad face, he begged bitterly, "Your Excellency, please do me this little favor. ”

"Uh...... She wasn't necessarily happy to go with me. "Lan Wu was very embarrassed. The fat boss almost knelt down. It's a good thing to send a little girl who has been trafficked home. But people don't want to go, so what's the solution?

Kneel, really kneel.

The fat boss immediately knelt on the ground, begging bitterly with a handful of snot and tears, and strongly asked Lan Wu to take this little girl away. In that way, people see people sad, and God sees God crying.

"She doesn't want to go." Lan Wu shook his head in embarrassment, and nodded at the little girl: "Look at how diligent the little girl is." You have an extra amount of labor, isn't it enough for you to be happy? ”

These words seemed to touch the sad place of the fat boss, and suddenly tears rained down, and he began to cry. attracted the waiters who went to and from the front hall and backyard to look sideways. But Lan Wu saw a little pity in the eyes of these waiters.

Commiseration?

The workers who work for others pity the boss. What is the rhythm of this?

Lan Wu was dumbfounded, his mind full of question marks. This fat boss is really interesting. The capitalists desperately want free labor. This fat man has such a diligent labor for nothing...... Well, it's still a child laborer. But how much can a little girl eat in one meal?

Suddenly, a thunderous belly roar rang out in the backyard. Lan Wu was suddenly shocked. It was the first time he had heard someone make such a loud belly sound. He immediately lowered his head and looked at the fat boss. When people are fat and hungry, the peculiarities are understandable. I didn't want to, but he saw that this fat man was frightened by this belly roar.

What a rhythm is this?

Lan Wu was inexplicably surprised. This belly roar was obviously not made by this fat boss. Then there was another ringing. This time he could hear it clearly, it was the malnourished little girl.

I'm afraid you have to starve for three days to have this effect.

Subconsciously, his gaze at the fat boss turned cold again. As a result, the fat boss didn't look at him at all, but just called a waiter in despair, and bitterly told him to hurry up and bring him food.

Misunderstood him?

Lan Wu was at a loss. At present, it is not that this fat boss maliciously exploits this little girl. This fat guy is pretty good. The little girl was hungry and didn't take the initiative to eat, but he took the initiative to prepare food for the little girl.

After a while, the waiter brought a large wooden plate from the kitchen. On top of each other, there were at least thirteen or fourteen dry and hard dough cakes. Lan Wu knew this kind of rough dry cake. The civilians of Camp Rogge used to eat this kind of dry cake as their staple food. He had tasted it, too, and it was as hard as a plank, and it didn't taste good. It's okay to satisfy hunger, but it's hard to enjoy it as a delicacy.

The waiter brought the wooden tray to the little girl, put it down and immediately turned and ran. It was as if the little girl would eat him with the dry cakes.

The little girl is also polite. Turning her head to the fat boss, she nodded gratefully, and then she grabbed the dry and hard dry cake and devoured it. The size of a dry biscuit plate, she eliminated one in three bites, and she didn't bring any water to drink. In less than five minutes, more than a dozen dry biscuits strangely entered her stomach. She licked off the crumbs from the plate, then embarrassedly turned back to the fat boss to express her gratitude, and finally picked up the axe and struggled to chop firewood.

Seeing this, Lan Wu already knew the suffering of the fat boss. Such a taboo snack is probably something that only professionals can support. It was not easy for a fat man to open a small shop to support his family. Raising such a foodie, can you rush in and give this little girl away like a plague god?

"I'm sorry for you." Lan Wu took out the bag of gold coins just now, stuffed them into the fat boss's hand, patted him on the shoulder and sighed. This fat man is very good, and he should not suffer such a sin. The latter has a kinship in his heart, and he looks like he understands long live.

"I'll try it." Lan Wu nodded in understanding, and turned to the little girl who was working hard to chop wood. Walking behind her, he hadn't spoken yet. Bruna suddenly let out a confused voice.

"She seems to have a smell that I know very well."

Lan Wu looked at Bruna out of the corner of his eye with a strange expression. After all, there are outsiders here, and it is inconvenient to divulge the existence of the four ghosts of Rodament. He remembered that Bruna rarely spoke, always staring expectantly at everything that seemed to be edible. In this respect, she and this little girl have something in common. Maybe I felt the same foodie soul.

"Be sure to take her." Bruna's unprecedented maturity has changed her image as a foodie before.

"Hmm." Lan Wu nodded with a heavy heart. Erin just couldn't keep up with her nutrition, so she was as thin as a reed stick. The little girl was clearly more malnourished. Not only to save the fat boss, but also to rescue this snack is also a very important issue.

"Will you come with me?" Lan Wu said softly behind the little girl with a look on his face, "I can send you home." I'll keep you full before sending you home. ”

The little girl turned her head, her eyes full of the contradiction of anticipation and doubt. Apparently she hadn't fully believed Lan Wu's words and was still on her guard.

"I am a benefactor." Lan Wu smiled softly and rubbed the little girl's yellow hair: "Have you ever heard of the Divine Charismatics?" The benefactor is the embodiment of the spirit walking on earth. I am a benefactor. ”

The little girl's eyes lit up. The suspicion quickly faded. Lan Wu's heart was relieved. This little girl has an extraordinary background, and it is not easy to know the name of the Divine Charismatic, which is only left in the ancient scrolls, and it is not easy to come to the family background.

"Look, this is my companion Hallows." Lan Wu smiled gently, raised his finger and pointed to the fifteen small talismans that were constantly rotating around him, and they were all nonsense.

The little girl's eyes were even more excited. The companion sacristy, what a terrific name.

"Will you come with me?" Lan Wu rubbed the little girl's yellow hair again. Erin likes to rub her head like that. Now it seems that the little girl does not seem to be disgusted.

"I ...... I am willing to follow you. "The little girl may not have spoken for a long time, her voice is very interfering, but her words are very clear.

"Boss." Lan Wu smiled and turned around, wanting to instruct the boss to prepare some more delicious food. Those dozen or so dry cakes just now really can't be considered children's food. Unexpectedly, seeing the fat boss staring at him blankly, he thought about it and couldn't help but laugh dumbly. It seems that this fat man was also fooled by himself.

The Divine Benefactor, as lofty as it sounds, is actually of little use. Except for a little bit of authority in Camp Roger, the rest of the place is basically equal to zero. There are not many benefits, but there are a lot of disadvantages. No, it can cause chaos wherever you go. This time I came to the seaport of Curast, and Mephisto was going to jump out.

Forget it, this fat man is good, go and eat elsewhere, so as not to bring disaster to others. (To be continued.) )
