Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Adventurer at the Bottom of the Valley
"Anyone?"
Wen Long turned around and saw a diminutive old man standing on a small mound of earth.
The old man's face was wrinkled, and he was carrying a hiking backpack and a trekking pole in his hand, which looked like a picture of a regular outdoor activity.
"Why is this old man still scurrying around in the ravine when he is old?"
Just when Wen Long felt a little strange, Wen Long suddenly remembered an NPC that he often encountered in the hunting grounds when he was playing the game.
"Wait, this old man seems to be a little familiar, and his long pointed ears are clearly a dragonman...... Could it be that this old man is ......?"
"Grandpa Yamana?" Wen Long couldn't help but say his thoughts.
"Hehehe, I didn't expect that there are also young people who know the old man!" The old man laughed.
"I'll rub it, it's really that Grandpa Shancai...... Wen Long thought to himself in his heart.
In the past, when hunting in the game, it was possible to meet Grandpa Yamana on some specific maps, and if you talked to Grandpa Yamana at that time, then Grandpa Yamana would generally offer to take a prop from the player, and then give another prop as a thank you.
To put it simply, you will exchange items with players, and if you are lucky, you will also exchange some good items. Of course, more often than not, it's just some chicken rib props that are better than nothing.
Just as Wenlong was recalling Grandpa Yamana's information in his mind, Grandpa Yamana in front of him spoke.
"Now, young man, it's also fate that we can meet here, I wonder if you have replied to Medicine G? If anything, I have something good to trade with you. ”
"Good stuff? What's good, meow? As soon as he heard that there were good things, Wenlong naturally became interested.
"Hehehe, you can rest assured about this, the old man is old, of course he won't let a young man like you suffer, so ...... What do you think of this thing in exchange? ”
As he spoke, Grandpa Yamana took out a bottle with a red potion.
"What kind of potion is this? Meow? Wen Long asked.
"Hmph, this is a ghost medicine! How's that, heartbeat, right? As he spoke, Grandpa Yamana had a smug look on his face, as if the bottle of potion in his hand was some rare treasure.
"Huh? Ghost medicine? Don't ...... Meow. Wen Long waved his hand uninterestedly.
"Huh? Young man, why don't you want such a good thing? This ghost medicine is much more expensive than the recovery medicine G, and the price is very high on the black market! ”
"Don't, don't, I thought it was a good thing, it turned out to be just a bottle of ghost medicine, meow."
For this red ghost elixir, Wen Long, as an old hunter, is naturally very familiar with it, and to put it simply, it is a potion that can increase the hunter's attack power in one day. It is also a must-have potion for many hunters to hunt.
Indeed, from the perspective of the materials required for the ghost medicine, the value of the ghost medicine is a little higher than that of the recovery medicine G, but it has not reached the level of enough to make Wen Long's heart move, and the most important thing is that Wen Long already has a full prop blending method in his heart, even if this ghost medicine is good, as long as he gets the materials, it is not difficult for Wen Long to reconcile it.
Grandpa Shancai couldn't help but blush when he saw that the ghost medicine he took out couldn't attract Wenlong at all. It felt like I was showing off as a treasure, but it was like dung in the eyes of the other party, which was really shameless.
In the past, as long as Grandpa Yamana took out his ghost medicine to exchange it with the other party, no hunter would refuse. Even in terms of formula alone, the formula of the ghost medicine is more difficult to obtain than the formula of the recovery medicine G, not to mention that there is a material that is not available near the village of Mirard when blending the ghost medicine, which undoubtedly further increases the value of the ghost medicine.
"Actually, the ghost medicine can't impress you, that young man, how about I add another bottle of this in exchange?" Seeing that the ghost medicine couldn't attract Wenlong, Grandpa Shancai took out another bottle of orange liquid.
This time, Wen Long quickly guessed the essence of this bottle of orange liquid: "Since that one was a ghost medicine just now, then this should be a sclerosing drug, right?" Meow? ”
"That's right, this is a sclerosing drug, which can strengthen the bones and skin of the body in one day, and achieve the effect of improving defense, how about it? A bottle of ghost medicine and a bottle of sclerosing medicine, just exchange for a bottle of recovery medicine G for you, and now you will make a lot of money! ”
"Don't change, meow!" This time, Wen Long refused more decisively than before.
"Why?" Grandpa Yamana was even more surprised.
"No why," Wen Long didn't bother to explain to the fuss Grandpa Yamana, but continued, "Oh, by the way, old man, I'm not interested in your ghost medicine and sclerosing medicine Uncle Ben, but if you can answer me a few questions, Uncle Ben is willing to send you a few reply medicine G, meow." ”
After speaking, Wenlong took out a few bottles of recovery medicine G and shook it in front of Grandpa Shancai, saying that what he said was absolutely true.
"Really, give it to me?" This time, Grandpa Shancai's eyes widened, and the wrinkles on his face became deeper.
After all, in Grandpa Yamana's memory, he had traveled to many places and exchanged props with countless hunters, but few hunters would be willing to give things to him for free, let alone a more expensive prop like Healing Medicine G.
"Then I asked," said Wenlong, "and the first question is, old man, why do you always have to exchange items with others?" Meow? ”
In fact, this question has always been a puzzle in Wenlong's mind.
When playing games in the past, Wenlong thought, how can this old man exchange props with people all over the world, and the types of props exchanged are still varied, which are richer than the props sold by the grocery merchants in the village, isn't it boring!
Now Wenlong finally has the opportunity to ask the person concerned this question, and Grandpa Yamana doesn't seem to shy away from this question, but slowly explains.
"Well...... In fact, it's because the old man often travels around.,So a lot of props are not used halfway.,For example, this time the recovery medicine G.,It was prepared when I set off.,But not long ago, I let a big wild boar king hit my waist.,This is my old bone.。 So I drank all three bottles of recovery medicine G in one go. ”
Speaking of his waist being hit, Grandpa Yamana also smiled embarrassedly, and then continued.
"It just so happens that the old man has some experience in blending potions, and he also has some materials for ghost medicine and hardening medicine that he collected before, so he reconciled some ghost medicine and hardening medicine, and is ready to exchange a few recovery medicine G with the hunter who met in Pingshui."
"I see, so it makes sense, meow." Wen Long nodded, and then asked again, "Then the second question, old man, you just said that you used the remaining materials to blend some ghost medicine and sclerosing medicine, so do you still have such materials on you now?" Meow? ”
"Well, there are still some of them, all of them are the ...... collected when I passed by the Thundering Sand Sea some time ago" Halfway through speaking, Grandpa Yamana seemed to understand something, and suddenly asked, "Could it be that what you kid wants is the materials for ghost medicine and sclerosing medicine?" ”
