Chapter 164: The Devouring Black Hole
Bite!
A yellow gold coin bounced high, arcing gracefully through the air, and then landed accurately on the counter, whirring and spun rapidly, flashing with a seductive golden light.
"Please give me and my guys the best ale of the best, thank you!"
Zhao Xi stretched out his hand and hooked his index finger and knocked on the counter, and the spinning gold coin instantly fell, face up!
"Damn, handsome!"
An Xiaohai, who was following behind, looked straight at it: "Boss, you teach me, how do you play?" ”
The Ye brothers are also bright-eyed, this hand is useless in reality, because throwing a coin in the bar is not pretending to be forced or looking for a draw, but it is the most beautiful to play cool in the game!
Zhao Xi smiled: "Just play more and practice more, it's very simple." ”
It looks simple, but it's not simple, it's a little trick he practiced in his spare time when he was a soldier before, and it's really not easy for ordinary people to master the strength and techniques in it.
The bearded middle-aged bartender glanced at Zhao Xi, grabbed the gold coins with his hand, and then poured a large glass of ale wine for them all, his attitude was still cold, as if no one owed him 180,000 gold coins and had not paid it back.
Zhao Xi didn't care, and took a sip of the wine glass.
When the middle-aged bartender took out a few silver coins and wanted to return them, he raised his hand to block them and said, "Don't look for it, I still want to ask for some news." ”
The middle-aged bartender frowned: "What news?" ”
Zhao Xi looked at him and said, "I heard that there are several demons and beasts in the city recently, what way do you have to learn about them, it is best to know their whereabouts." ”
Inside the city of the system. The bartender in the local tavern is often the most well-informed NPC, and is usually the easiest and easiest way to get quest information as long as the trigger conditions are met.
Although it is not a Turin, you have to try to know the way.
The middle-aged bartender shook his head and said, "I haven't heard about this, I'm really sorry." ”
As he spoke, he placed the silver coin in his hand in front of Zhao Xi.
The result was obviously disappointing, Fang Xu stood up and said, "Brother Niu, let's go, go to another house and ask." ”
Zhao Xi was a little unwilling, thought for a while and continued to ask: "Then may I ask." Do you know who can give us information on this? ”
He didn't take back the coins. Instead, I added 2 more gold coins on it!
The middle-aged bartender's cold face finally showed a smile: "These are not enough!" ”
2 gold coins are not enough? This NPC is really greedy, Zhao Xi remained silent: "Make a price!" ”
The middle-aged bartender raised three thick fingers.
Zhao Xi immediately added 1 gold coin, but what he didn't expect was that the middle-aged bartender actually shook his head and said, "It's not 3." It is 30 pieces. I can send you to someone who knows the news! ”
"What?"
Zhao Xi has not yet answered. An Xiaohai jumped up and shouted loudly: "Is there a mistake, just ask for 30 gold, why don't you go and rob the bank?" ”
30 gold is not a small amount. In the big trading market, he can sell more than 3,000 yuan in cash, which is worth his monthly salary income in the Yangmei team.
This bartender just asked for so much money just for a referral, it's just a naked rip-off!
The middle-aged bartender's face suddenly became gloomy, and he looked at An Xiaohai's gaze very unkindly.
Zhao Xi keenly noticed that at the two wine tables not far from them, four or five drinkers stood up quietly.
Zhao Xi immediately stretched out his hand to press down An Xiaohai, who was causing trouble, and said to the bartender: "I'm sorry, my little brother can't speak, please forgive me, I paid this money!" ”
Without the slightest hesitation, he took out 30 gold coins and put them on them, pushing them to the other party along with the previous ones.
The middle-aged bartender snorted and glanced at the piles of coins: "That's a lot." ”
Zhao Xi smiled: "The extra is an apology." ”
The middle-aged bartender's face softened a lot: "You are not bad, you know the rules, but your subordinates"
He glanced at An Xiaohai disdainfully: "Lack of discipline!" ”
What the?
When did NPCs go so crazy too!
An Xiaohai suddenly looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and the hair on his whole body "exploded".
Fang Xu hugged him: "Don't mess around!" ”
Fang Xu is also an old player, since the other party dares to offer such a price, he must rely on it, and now that Zhao Xi has recognized it, if An Xiaohai wants to jump his feet, it is completely possible to cut off this clue path.
The NPCs in the story quests all have a high AI, so it's normal to make the other party unhappy and lazy to dump you.
Zhao Xi glared at the thief with hatred, and said to the Ye family brothers: "How much money do you have on you, lend it to me first, and give me all the money!" ”
The middle-aged bartender is undoubtedly a news broker, if he needs 30 gold for a recommendation, then the cost of buying intelligence is definitely only a lot more, and he only carries 110 gold on him, or he won it in the big arena today, it is inevitable that he is a little stretched.
The most important thing is that Zhao Xi believes that every point is worth a gain, and now pay a high price, as long as the task is completed, there will be a rich reward, so just in case, it is necessary to have more money on your body.
And whether it is Fang Xu, An Xiaohai or Ouyang Duan, the little pocket money on their bodies is not enough to stuff their teeth, An Xiaohai just fried his hair for no reason, and it depends on the Ye family brothers who really have "money power".
The Ye brothers looked at each other, but at this time, they couldn't be stingy, and obediently took out all the money they were carrying, and actually made up 137 gold for Zhao Xi.
With food on his body, he didn't panic, Zhao Xi said to the middle-aged bartender: "Now you can take me there." ”
The middle-aged bartender looked at Zhao Xi with a strange gaze: "Have you thought it through?" The person I took you to meet, although he will tell you the news, but it may also cause you trouble, and it is too late for you to regret it now! ”
Zhao Xi smiled and said: "What I'm not afraid of the most is trouble!" ”
"That's good"
The middle-aged bartender nodded, his eyes looked at An Xiaohai, who was still puffing up next to him, and said, "Let your subordinates wait quietly here, don't make trouble!" ”
Zhao Xi said: "Of course, they will follow the rules. ”
He winked at Fang Xu, who nodded understandingly.
The middle-aged bartender put away the gold coins and reached for a small brass bell placed on the counter.
Clang~
The bell rang crisply, and Zhao Xi suddenly had a creepy feeling, feeling like he had fallen from a high cliff, and the whole person completely lost control and center of gravity!
And standing behind Zhao Xi or sitting in front of the counter together, Fang Xu and the others only saw Zhao Xi's whole person suddenly sink down, and disappeared without a trace in an instant, along with the wine stool under his buttocks!
And on the ground where he was, a swirling black hole appeared silently, and soon disappeared without a trace with Zhao Xi's disappearance.
"What's going on?"
Such a strange scene stunned everyone, and An Xiaohai directly pulled out the dagger!
Fang Xu hurriedly hugged him again: "Calm down!" The boss is still alive! ”
The members of the same team can see the status of other teammates through the team information panel in the system vision, and Zhao Xi's HP is still full, so naturally there is no danger to life.
It's just that this way of disappearing is really a bit amazing, but fortunately, Fang Xu was able to stay calm and stop An Xiaohai's impulse in time after being ordered by Zhao Xi before.
This tavern gave Fang Xu a really weird feeling, and reason told him that it was the right choice to stay calm at this time!
The middle-aged bartender ignored them, picked up the rag and continued to wipe the counter as if it could never be cleaned, and the tavern was still quiet, as if nothing had happened.
At this time, Zhao Xi was enjoying the pleasure of roller coaster.
He had a premonition that something would happen, but he never expected the process to be so exciting, but fortunately his nerves were thick and tough enough to be so out of shape that he yelled.
The process of falling lasted for four or five seconds, and then Zhao Xi felt as if his butt had been hit hard by something, and his body suddenly stabilized.
Time seemed to freeze abruptly at this moment, and then it returned to normal again, his vision returned to normal, and all kinds of noisy and noisy sounds rushed into his ears like a tide and hit his eardrums! ——
A huge secret hidden deep in the virtual world has quietly emerged, but our protagonist is still unaware, his game journey has just begun, and the wonderful story has just begun!
