Chapter 1132: Substitute Class (10)
Chapter 1132: Substitute Class (10)
The ground around the central well is concrete, but the well is still built in the original stone style, and a pavilion combining elf and human styles is built on top to protect it from the wind and rain.
It was just night, and there were many people who came to fetch water, ordinary residents and shop owners needed to prepare water for tomorrow morning's business, some wealthy people hired people to fetch water, and some specially organized water porters to deliver water to residents for a certain fee, and the wells were crowded.
Standing on the railing between the steps and looking down, Gillette and I could vaguely feel that there was a simple but practical filtering magic array underwater, which filtered out the harmful substances and most of the impurities in the water to ensure the safety of drinking water.
And the werewolf who is the leader of the saboteurs is on the opposite side.
In addition to the people who fetch water, there are also many people who come out to enjoy the shade and go shopping at night, because there are relatively bright lighting facilities here, including a few thick torches and a magic light bead placed in the center of the gazebo.
This magic light bead was placed by the Orderlies before dark, and it would be put away around eleven o'clock at night.
It is said that on important festivals, no matter what race it is, as long as there are many people celebrating the festival, the magic light beads will stay for a while longer, and they will not be withdrawn until midnight.
With the lighting and the flow of people, the surrounding shops have also become prime locations, and business is booming, and it has vaguely become the most lively place at night.
It's just a pity that it's my first time here.
"The werewolf on the other side, the skinny one, have you noticed?" I whispered.
Shadowless Gillette asked cautiously, "Is that him?" ”
"He's in charge here," I said, "and there are six other people, and if they succeed, about 30,000 of the people who come to fetch water tomorrow will be poisoned at the first time." ”
"I'll take him!" Shadowless Gillette said.
"There's too many, and he hasn't done it yet," I said, "and wait." ”
"So, what about the other six?" Shadowless Gillette asked.
"I'll take care of it, you don't care." I say.
"Is it me?" Leo said.
"One and a half." I say.
"Okay!" Leo said, "In addition to this stubble, there may be another stubble." ”
"And?" I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly I felt that the people who came and went around me were not good people......
"What do you want to do?" Leo said.
"There are many ways," I said, "but you still need to keep an eye on me, and I'm running errands with Shadowless Gillette. ”
"Alas, this is something that should be handed over to artificial intelligence, what are you checking for?" Leo said.
"Isn't it to improve computing power?" I said, "It's just a few days, just stick with it." ”
"It's easy to say......" Leo muttered.
It's not hard for me to monitor six people at the same time, but I can't influence three people in different directions at the same time.
However, there is never one way to solve a problem.
"Let's go to the alley over there." I said to Gillette without a shadow.
Shadowless Gillette asked suspiciously: "For ......" and walked over directly halfway through the sentence.
The alley is secluded, far from the hustle and bustle outside, and there is a ...... A faint smell of squeamishness.
There is a culvert with a cement garbage pit at the end.
In the garbage pit, there are also several stray dogs that are shaving food.
On both sides of the walls and rooftops, there are a few wild cats roaming leisurely.
It's a not-so-clean corner of town.
Speaking of which, Santas's urban sanitation construction is not bad, much cleaner than the orcs, and there are relatively few such corners, but after all, the public health part is not as good as the metropolis of the earth, even if I intend to improve, it will take time.
Garbage pits and latrines are a slow-moving project, and people will only remember to have a good toilet when the houses are built.
And these unfed small animals are also small troubles that cannot be completely solved on the earth.
The arrival of me and Shadowless Gillette frightened these small animals wandering in the city, the stray dogs panicked and prepared to flee, and the wild cats occupied the roof wall, but they were not so panicked, but they were ready to slip away at any time.
I let out a bit of monster breath to cover this small alley, and all the small animals, including the rats hiding in the ditch below, could not move.
"Listen," I commanded the frightened little ones, "there's something for you to do!" ”
Then, the less than ten small animals found more than thirty companions and ran to several wells around them.
Using the coercion of my druid skills, I ordered them to guard the wells and subdue those who tried to poison them.
Of course, even five or six small animals will inevitably make mistakes against an ordinary weak orc, just in case, I have given them a little more strength, anyway, this energy consumption is not as much as stimulating a low-level magical beast.
All that's left is to wait slowly and beware of the unexpected.
As we were about to walk out of the alley, an orderly came to take a look.
When he saw me, he looked at Gillette without a shadow, and said, "Be careful to keep it clean, and don't defecate on the streets." ”
Shadowless Gillette asked rhetorically, "Not in this?" ”
The orderler said, "Be careful here, too, in the ditch and don't stain the ground." ”
Shadowless Gillette said, "Got it. The Orderlies left.
When we returned to the well, the orderly and his companion said, "Another drunken fellow, I thought the pet had gone mad......"
His companion said: "Cheer up, don't let your guard down, be extra careful these two days." ”
"What the hell is going on?" The Orderist asked.
"Who knows, it's said that there is something going on in the mage tower, and you can see it, and the tower spirit doesn't take care of things," said his companion, "and it's up to us." ”
The orderlies complained: "It was not so troublesome before, but since this winter, things have increased, although the city is much cleaner and there are fewer troublemakers, but our work is also busy." ”
"I wasn't busy before, but things were difficult to solve, but now with Taling's help, things are going well, so be busy." Said the companion.
"That's right, however, this thing is not reliable, it is indeed good for Taling to help, but if we come a few more times like today, we will also be in a hurry."
"If something big happens and you don't need to be responsible, what are you afraid of?" The companion said, "Look at that swamp black rhino, it is said that its strength is close to that of a high-level demonic beast, so dangerous, isn't there nothing wrong with it?" Not only are we not penalized, but we also have extra attendance fees, how good is that? ”
The orderly, "I'd rather not ...... that little money"
The two chatted and gathered up with a few other companions to maintain order around them.
In fact, there is no need to deliberately maintain it, after all, people are used to it, and many people don't realize that there is something wrong with Taling.
Of course, there are also idlers who complain: "Today's radio is so short, and there is no sound drama yet." ”
Someone explained, "Magicians don't do this for you all day, do they?" If you're in a bad mood, don't do it......"
Someone else said: "Listen to what's funny, some people are already selling the kind of story drawings in newspapers, which are better than those in newspapers, and there are colorful ones!" ”
"Does it cost money? What's so interesting about that? I've heard that newspapers are going to be made in color, and the magicians are getting more and more tricks. ”
"Or the people in the mage tower will play."
"By the way, speaking of the radio, that gong-throated troll over there at Silver Fir Street is said to be learning how to sing bards again!"
"The troll who runs the grocery store? What's there to hear? ”
"It's really not good, but his story is well written, and he doesn't need money, so it's good to listen to it when he's idle."
"I'm not going, such an ugly voice, singing everything out of tune, it's just torture!"
"Don't say it, if you listen carefully, although his voice is hoarse, it is still quite attractive with the story, I want to listen to it tomorrow."
"Then there you go! I've heard that a half-elf bard will be coming in a few days. ”
"yes, then I'm going to hear about it too, but if I don't come, I'll listen to the trolls......"
There are a lot of topics that passers-by are chatting about, and the only thing that attracts me is this, but about the color comics and the troll Waga, I can't rush for the time being, and if you consider that there is still a lot of room for improvement in the material life of the residents, it is indeed a bit of a rush to launch too many entertainment projects at once.
"Sooner or later, we will have to enter the factory or service industry," Mr. Leo said, "and now the focus is on business and the service industry, and agriculture does not need so many people, but it can be regarded as a gap with the agricultural society, and basically can reach the level of urban residents in the Song Dynasty of China." ”
The bustle continued until about ten o'clock, when the number of people fetching water gradually decreased, and the street began to become deserted, so Gillette bought a glass of sweet ale, which was said to be made by the owner, and found a vacant bench, and sat down to drink slowly, and I sat honestly beside him, closed my eyes, and watched the movements of the other six wells.
Across from us, the skinny werewolf was also waiting for his moment, pretending to be careless, enjoying the quiet and leisurely place like an ordinary passerby.
People who come here to hang out, more or less will bring something to eat, or simply buy some drinks and wine, or snacks such as dried fruits and nuts, adults and children are rarely dry, and those in poor condition bring containers from home, fetch some water, and they can eat leisurely with their own dry food.
After a stressful adventure, it is much more economical to come here to relax and buy some snacks to accompany the drink, although their snacks are slightly more substantial, which is enough for the relatively poor to envy for a long time.
