Chapter 93: Finding out the news
"Shovel??"
As soon as Zhao Xiaochuan's words fell, the old blacksmith and Mark all looked at him with a confused expression.
Even the big man Yuan Fang, who had already begun to melt the shovel that had broken into two, raised his head slightly and glanced at Zhao Xiaochuan with some strange eyes.
He had been working with the old blacksmith since he was a child, but he had never heard such a strange request from a hunter who had hunted in the wasteland.
Is a shovel a weapon?
"Yes, Uncle Yuan, just make me such a small shovel of similar style, the weight is a little heavier than the previous one, and by the way, remember to open the shovel." However, Zhao Xiaochuan nodded seriously.
In fact, since a few days ago, Zhao Xiaochuan began to think about what kind of weapon to use for self-defense, but after thinking about it, he still felt that the little shovel was the most suitable for him.
First, whether it is a weapon such as a sword, a gun, a sword or a halberd, even if he gets it, he is not very proficient, after all, he has never practiced any swordsmanship.
The second is that he is a summoner, and he will not take action personally unless he is forced to do so, even if he holds a magic weapon, he will not be able to play its role.
It's better to get a small shovel at hand, whether it's digging a pit to bury someone or doing something else on weekdays, you can do it.
"Okay, since you want to make another little shovel, give me two days, and in two days you can come to me to get it, and then you will be given the dagger with you." The old blacksmith estimated the time, and the shovel was actually not difficult to build, at least it was much easier than the weapons of swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and the time it took was not very long.
Of course, among the swords, guns, swords, and halberds, the old blacksmith could only make knives and swords, and the difficult weapons such as guns and halberds were naturally not something that a blacksmith in a remote refuge town like him could create.
"It's chosen! That's it. ”
And Mark, who was on the side, also picked a machete at this time and happily carried it on his shoulder.
"it!?"
"Mark, are you sure you want to get one of these machetes??" Zhao Xiaochuan looked confused, the machete chosen by Mark was two-thirds as tall as himself, and the handle was also very long, and it was even about the same height as Mark: "Don't you feel sinking?" "Shen!" Mark also nodded with the same serious face: "But it shouldn't sink in two days." ”
Zhao Xiaochuan: "....."
Old Blacksmith: "....."
Yuan Fang's eyes lit up, looking at Mark's figure that was not sturdy in his eyes, his eyes revealed excitement, and the corners of his mouth grinned, and he gave Mark a thumbs up.
"Hey, hey." Mark also smiled at Yuan Fang.
This may be the tacit understanding between people with great strength.
Zhao Xiaochuan looked helpless: "... If you like it... Uncle Yuan, a dagger and a small shovel, and this... How much does a giant machete cost? ”
"Master Guang said that the two of you can take things from me, just write down the bill and send it to him." The old blacksmith shook his head with a smile: "I didn't expect that old Grande to have such a generous day." Wrong! Mark, when you go back, remember to remind the old boy that if he dares to repay the debt, the old man will tear down his bath! ”
Mark: "......"
"Ahem..."Zhao Xiaochuan also suddenly looked helpless.
What are the strange things around you?
"That Uncle Yuan, then I'll come to you in two days to get something." Zhao Xiaochuan explained, and hurriedly walked out of the blacksmith shop with Mark who was carrying a knife on the side, and the pedestrians on the side looked at the knife that Mark was carrying, and they were all confused, and even some timid hurriedly dodged, for fear that one would be accidentally cut by Mark.
"A child who is usually quite shrewd, how can he be stupid when he carries a knife..."Zhao Xiaochuan covered his forehead with his hand, with a helpless expression: "You go back to the bath directly, I'm going to go outside, and tell the old bald head that I will go back before dark." ”
"Okay, Brother Xiaochuan, be careful." Mark happily carried the knife in the direction of the bath, and Zhao Xiaochuan did not waste time, and walked directly to the entrance of the town.
Taking advantage of the fact that the hunting team has returned to the town to rest in the past few days, Zhao Xiaochuan can also try his luck closer to the town to see if he can find prey that can be sacrificed.
In a few days, if the hunting team in the town runs out again, they will have to run to the area far away from the town if they want to hunt.
"Zhao Ye is good."
"Zhao Ye is good."
Zhao Xiaochuan's reputation also spread in the town, especially before the shelter recognized Zhao Xiaochuan's identity as a summoner and issued a certificate to Zhao Xiaochuan, so along the way, both the guards in the town and some people from the hunting team greeted Zhao Xiaochuan with a look of awe.
As for the other ordinary townspeople, they didn't even dare to step forward, and they avoided Zhao Xiaochuan from a distance when they saw it.
This is the way of life of ordinary people in the town, not only when they meet Zhao Xiaochuan, but also when these ordinary people encounter those gang members and members of the hunting team on weekdays, they will take the initiative to avoid it from a distance to avoid causing any trouble.
"Master Zhao, are you going out?"
Coming to the entrance of the town, Wang Ming has almost become the second-in-command of the gang in the town, and the guards guarding here have long been replaced, but Zhao Xiaochuan is also familiar, and his nickname seems to be called Big Ear, he should have been a little minion who followed Wang Ming before, and he also followed the Zhou Tian hunting team to hunt two-headed cows.
Now it can be regarded as a rising tide, and he has served as the captain of this town's entrance guard team. Because the two ears are bigger than others, Zhao Xiaochuan has some impressions of him. Seeing Zhao Xiaochuan come out, he hurriedly greeted him respectfully.
"Hmm." Zhao Xiaochuan nodded and asked, "How many hunting teams came back yesterday?" And Li Shan, when they came back, did they bring anything eye-catching? ”
Although this kind of person looks inconspicuous, he guards the entrance of the town all day long, sees a lot of people coming and going, and the news in it is very well-informed on weekdays, just like Wang Ming in the past, who was called "PHS" by the people in the town, and now this big ear, there should be no less things to know.
"Back to Zhao Ye, after a day's work yesterday, almost all the hunting teams outside came back, and even if they didn't come back, they were almost back this morning." Hearing Zhao Xiaochuan's question, Big Ear hurriedly replied: "As for Li Shan's gang, when they came back, they were mysterious, and two of them were carrying something together, which looked quite small. But covered with a cloth, I couldn't see what it was. ”
"Something that's not small?" Zhao Xiaochuan was slightly stunned: "Could it be that you really brought something back?" ”
