077 Monkey steals wine
When Jiang Yuedeng's eyes lit up when he heard this, he looked at him expectantly: "Okay, drunkard, even if you say it, you can help us." ”
The middle-aged man laughed a few more times, and then said, "Okay, refreshing!" In fact, it is not a particularly difficult thing, at least for those of you who walk the rivers and lakes with martial arts, it is a trivial matter. ”
After a short pause, he sighed and said: "It's depressing to say it, originally I told the Hidden Dragon Villa in Xudu that I would send fifty good daughters to the altar every month, but for two months in a row, the person who sent the wine either disappeared, or lost the wine and ran back, and said that I would never help send it in the future." When I asked them why, I couldn't tell them clearly, so I said that there was a monster stealing the wine, and they didn't even see the wine clearly and disappeared. Later, the Hidden Dragon Garden also sent someone to investigate all the way, but said that he did not find any wrongdoers, and suspected that I was deliberately unwilling to send wine, so I found such an excuse, saying that if I didn't receive it in the third month, it would definitely make my small wine cellar unable to open again. ”
Hearing this, Lin Xi couldn't help but ask: "That Hidden Dragon Villa...... What is it? Is there a restaurant or something? ”
"If it's a restaurant, it's easy to do," the man smiled bitterly, and continued: "The Hidden Dragon Pavilion is a big family that even the official mansion of the capital city has to be afraid of, and the black and white are very mixed, so to put it simply, it is a bully." I was also fascinated by money for a while, and I became greedy, so I agreed to this business, otherwise I would not have fallen into the result of losing wine and facing the closure of the shop. ”
Jiang Yue sighed: "It turned out to be a bully, I said who is so unreasonable." ”
Then she looked at Lin Xi and asked, "What's the matter, can you pick it up?" ”
Lin Xi actually cares more about Xudu, although the task given to her by Xuanluo has been put on hold for a long time, but as soon as she mentioned these two words, she quickly remembered them. She is now almost level forty, and it is not a problem to skip the level and fight monsters. This task...... Just take it as a passing.
Thinking of this, she nodded and said, "Take it." ”
Jiang Yue turned back with satisfaction and said, "Then this time I and my friends will help you send a trip to the bar, just to clear those so-called monsters on the road." ”
"Okay, the more people, the better, Uncle is here to thank you first!"
Before his words fell, a system prompt sounded in the ears of the two of them - "Ding Dong!" Successfully took on the task of delivering wine to the Hidden Dragon Garden on behalf of Li Yao! ”
Li Yao, the name?
Lin Xi smiled helplessly, the name of the NPC did not match the image, it didn't seem to be her business.
And when she hesitated, Jiang Yue had already followed Li Yao to get the fifty jars of wine, and it seemed that she had rubbed a few bottles of good wine to drink on the way, but she was afraid that after the task was over, Jiang Yue would be able to rub more wine to drink.
Lin Xi continued to be helpless, and after Jiang Yue was finished, he went out with her.
To do the task, it is natural to call the other three, Jiang Yue summoned all three of them back with a thousand miles of transmission, and then went to buy a small map to the capital first, and then bought a horse and left Jiangdu City.
And because this task is not only to deliver wine, but also to clear the obstacles for the future road to deliver wine, Lin Xi also bought a horse quite painfully, and rode slowly all the way without Edgeworth with them.
There is an official road between the major main cities, and there are countless strange remote roads. Thinking about it, I also knew that those people who sent wine to Li Yao would definitely only take the official road, and would not automatically take the path to send it to the little monster to chop, so a few people along the way were completely regarded as a comfortable ride.
There are several field maps with a large area between Jiangdu and Xudu, not to mention, the official road is detouring many times in order to smooth it out, so that even if a group of people are riding horses, it took more than half an hour to slowly approach the boundary of Xudu.
But it was only into the realm of Xudu, and from a distance, you could only see the mountains and peaks, and you could not see the city.
It was useless to complain, so several people had to switch to self-comfort - it was good to buy a horse, otherwise they would be more tired and depressed to walk.
And when those monsters appeared, it happened that the tall city gate of Xudu faintly exposed a little water chestnut, and then several people were a little excited, eager to reach the city gate in the next second. So they didn't notice what was going on at all, and if it weren't for the system prompt, they would probably have gone all the way to the capital city.
"Ding-dong! Fooling around with Jiang Yue's shadowless hand and stealing his daughter's red fifty altars! ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yue was still very suspicious and opened the bag and glanced at it, and then screamed: "Ahhhhh ”
A few people are used to being speechless, and the system prompts are coming, will there be a fake?
Lin Xi wiped his sweat and said, "What's that nonsense?" Is it weird? Have any of you seen it? ”
The four surnamed Jiang all shook their heads: "I didn't see it." ”
What a coincidence...... She didn't see it either. Lin Xi held his forehead, then turned his head to look around, and then fixed his gaze on a clump of grass on the left hand side of everyone. Obvious traces of being trampled on, and staggering to indicate that they have just been stepped on.
Lin Xi dismounted without thinking about it, put away his horse and pulled out the Cold Moon Sword again, and said to the four people with puzzled faces: "That monster may have escaped from this side, although the possibility is not very large, but there is no other way but to try." ”
This was true, and the four of them dismounted and gathered their horses and took out their weapons.
Lin Xi said again: "I will chase after the sword, and you will follow this trace." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand, stepped on the Cold Moon Sword that entered the state of the sword, and quickly rose into the air, and disappeared for a moment.
The four of them looked at each other for a while, and then reluctantly walked into the grass, looking for the traces that were indeed obvious.
In fact, the nonsense of stealing wine is not very powerful, otherwise it would not only steal wine without hurting people, and as for running so fast, it should be the same as the shadowless hand who steals wine, and there is a handy escape technique.
And the player has a weight-free packaged wine, and these monsters can only be carried by hand, and they can't escape for a while.
Because he was looking for it, Lin Xi flew as low as possible, and then successfully found the suspicious target after a while. And when she flew closer, she was stunned, that ...... Looks like a monkey about her height? If it weren't for the fact that it was still pulling a cart of wine, Lin Xi would definitely not think that it was stealing wine and missing the real culprit.
Just, why do monkeys steal alcohol? Steal it and drink it? And Li Yao only started to send wine to Xudu in the past three months, did he want to go to Xudu City to steal it before?
There were too many questions, so Lin Xi simply didn't go to trouble the monkey first, and when she turned around and saw that Jiang Han and they were almost chasing after her, she followed the monkey so leisurely - she wanted to see where the monkey was going to send the wine.
And only in this way can the trouble of being stolen be completely solved, right?
Thinking like this, when Jiang Han and the others chased closer, Lin Xi simply fell to the ground and said his thoughts while continuing to chase. The four of them also knew that a monkey would definitely not be able to drink fifty jars of wine, so they had no objection.
The monkey ran away with the wine for about half an hour, and then looked at it with a vigilant face, and after seeing no suspicious person, it instantly turned into a flattering face and shouted into the air: "Brother Ghost, I'm messing around and bringing you wine!" ”
The monkey knows what flattery is, the monkey can talk, and the monkey sends wine to the ghost!
These three new discoveries made the five people who were hiding instantly thundered, and they were silent for a moment before secretly brushing aside the branches and looking in the direction of the monkey.
At this glance, I saw a man with a pale face, a small round hat, a rough cloth robe, and some unclothed clothes, as if he had appeared out of thin air from another world, distorting space. As soon as he saw the cart of wine behind him, he couldn't stop salivaing: "Haha, I have wine to drink again, it's better to treat your eldest brother if you're messing around, Huzi They are simply a bunch of bastards, they don't do anything and don't talk about robbing me of wine every day." ”
After speaking, he took out a gray cloth bag and threw fifty jars of wine into it without pressure.
Then he patted the foolish shoulder again: "Don't worry, big brother will definitely help you cultivate into a demon." ”
I can't see how perfunctory this sentence is, I just know how to thank it.
The five people who were hiding rolled their eyes, and then needless to say, Lin Xi went out directly with the sword and lost the Dao Talisman first, and then surrounded the stunned ghost and monkey with the other four people.
Jiang Yue shouted quite domineeringly: "If you want to die, give the wine to my sister and I will hand it over!" ”
