Chapter 128: Qualified NPCs (2-in-1)
The next day, in the backyard of the post station.
With a 'click' sound, a window was pushed open from the inside.
Jiang Cang in the house looked out of the window and saw that the sky was clear today, and only a little star and water droplets gathered from time to time in the light rain last night, and 'ticking' fell from the eaves.
Then a slight footstep sound sounded in the courtyard.
Look down.
Jiang Cang also saw Wang Yue and Ziming get up early.
At this time, Ziming was sitting in the courtyard, and Wang Yue was stepping under the eaves on the right, slashing back and forth with the sword in his hand, practicing the stabbing action.
And Wang Yue heard the sound of the window, looked up again, and saw Jiang Cang looking at him, but he didn't think that Jiang Cang and Ziming were secretly learning their own martial arts.
Because he practiced the stabbing action, it was a real stabbing action, which was completely used to move his body in the morning, without any moves and routines, only practice makes perfect.
"Departure?" Wang Yue's posture did not stop, and he asked Jiang Cang, feeling that the air was fresh and cool, and it was a good weather for the road.
"Anytime." Ziming completely listened to Wang Yue.
"Let's drink some porridge first." Jiang Cang pointed to the back door of the inn and smelled a fragrance, it was rice porridge, and there was a pickle smell, which must taste good.
Let's have breakfast before we go.
Because of his divine sense, he saw that the primordial beings in the nearby house had all woken up early in the morning, and now they were all squatting behind the door, probably waiting for themselves to set off, and they had been waiting for a long time, and they couldn't let them go hungry.
"Okay." Wang Yue also put away the sword sheath and came downstairs, waiting for Jiang Cang to go to the inn for dinner.
"I'll go and call them up." Ziming was not idle, stood up, patted the wet ash on his buttocks, and went to the next room to call the three Wu brothers.
Coincidentally, the three Wu brothers also seemed to have woken up early in the morning and were resting in the house.
As soon as Ziming entered the house and shouted, they followed.
It's just that.
Wait until Jiang Cang goes downstairs and eats with everyone.
It's not over a hundred breath time.
With the sound of 'clicking', the people in several nearby rooms also seemed to be awakened by the sound of Jiang Cang and the others, and then left the house one after another.
The young man opened the door and was still coughing, looking like he didn't get any better.
"It's getting worse again." The doctor checked his pulse again, and at the end, he shook his head, as if he was a human being, and he had to leave quickly.
"Little brother is seriously ill again?" The merchant also answered at this time, looked at the young man's somewhat pale face, and said: "The rain has stopped this day, and it doesn't seem to rain, so let's set off as soon as possible, don't delay the little brother's condition." ”
"Tired!" The doctor held his hand, looking like he was sending the patient with his heart, but in fact, he felt that the young man's performance was good, which made the merchant 'unbearable', so he said 'hurry up'.
And what he said is also in line with his own meaning, and he can be regarded as falling into his own routine.
But the merchant also depends on when Jiang Cang leaves, and then it is good to keep a distance, and the two of them can be regarded as thinking of a piece.
"Thanks.." The young man was also thanking the merchants, but he kept coughing, and his words were not clear.
"Don't say much, eat something hot first." The merchant was anxious for justice and righteousness, and while helping the young man to sit in the inn with the doctor, he shouted and asked the guards who were really sleeping in the courtyard to get up.
Anyway, the three of them seem to be in a hurry, like they are anxious about the illness of young people, and they can't be delayed. After eating, it's time to leave.
And inside the inn.
After Jiang Cang came here, he found that the beggar had woken up.
He smiled kindly when he saw himself and the others coming.
It's a pity that the gray on the face is too thick, like a splash of makeup, and there are large eyeshadows, which are a little hideous.
"Seven bowls of porridge." Ziming shouted at the shopkeeper next to him, and called the beggar's share by the way.
"Thank you.." When the beggar heard this, he hurriedly got up and took out the somewhat dirty quilt, and thanked him again and again, with sincere words.
"What a courtesy... What a courtesy.." Ziming was a little embarrassed to be appreciated, and felt that people in this era were sincere, and a bowl of porridge could receive such praise, if he was given some money, it was estimated that he would really be able to sell his life.
It is no wonder that many soldiers who went to the battlefield went to join the army for the purpose of eating at the beginning.
It's just that it's also when the beggars are grateful.
The shopkeeper and others also came out of the backyard and into the inn.
Time.
When the doctor and the young man saw that Jiang Cang and the others did not leave, but were drinking the hot porridge that had just been served, they were relieved first, and they felt that they were not too late.
They were afraid that when they and the others were chatting in the backyard just now, Jiang Cang and the others would run away, making the mission they had finally seen invalid.
"Fifteen bowls of porridge." The merchant also gave an order to his fellows, and asked a few guards to sort out the carriage, and then unload the goods of another cart, and when they were ready to leave, they left the grain for the shopkeeper and changed the bed and bedding.
In this way, the quilt is available, and the car is empty, and the youth can be put on it.
And if you delay the time, you can still set off with Wang Yue and others.
From this point of view, the merchant is also the same as the doctor, and he cares very much about this hard-won task, which must be a trick in place, don't let this task fly because of some small details.
Equally.
The beggar who was drinking porridge at the door was also thinking about how to catch Jiang Cang's line.
I thought about it for more than a dozen breaths.
The beggar finally had a flash of inspiration, remembered that some programs were selling badly, took another sip of soup, put the bowl on the ground, took two steps forward, and said to Jiang Cang and the others.
"A few masters!"
In the quiet inn, he suddenly shouted, and in just three words, his voice was filled with excitement, lamentation, and unrequited sincerity.
Suddenly, Ziming was taken aback, 'I, I..' After two times, the exit was almost the modern term 'I grass', but fortunately, I stopped in time and asked again: "I.. What happened to you? ”
"This lord!" When the beggar heard Ziming answer, it was according to his own thoughts, with some lamentation, and replied truthfully: "Villain.. The villain has been begging since he was a child, and he has been driven all the time, and he has never eaten a hot meal... But in the past two days, fortunately, a few masters are pitiful, and the villain can finally eat a full stomach, and there is a warm place to sleep at night."
As he spoke, he began to cry, black and gray were mixed, showing grief and pity, as if Jiang Cang and the others were his reborn parents.
For a while, Ziming in front of him looked at it, and it was a mess in his heart, far more sad than when he saw the three Wu brothers.
Even if Jiang Cang saw it, he had to say that he acted well, cried better, and played sadness and emotions very well.
"Little brother, great sorrow." Wang Yue was dyed by this scene, and he was also a man of temperament, so he not only sighed and persuaded him, but also took out some silver from his pocket and prepared to give it to the beggar.
However, when the three Wu brothers met with the merchants and others, they did not pity this person, because in their minds, this person clearly had hands and feet, so why didn't they go and find a job?
But the merchants and others wanted to think about it, and they still had sadness on their faces, sighing for a long time, showing a compassionate look.
And the beggar cried for a few breaths, and after seeing Wang Yue give him silver, he hurriedly waved his hand and refused, and said with another big salute: "The villain is grateful to this master. But the villain thought about it all night and felt that there was nothing to repay. Today, I saw a few masters who took such care of the villain... The villain can only use this cheap life to repay a few masters... You can be a cow or a horse! The villain just wants to follow a few masters, return the favor, and also want to stutter... I don't want to go hungry anymore.."
"Ahh
As the beggar's words fell, Ziming first sighed, which made the beggar feel excited, feeling that this matter was estimated, so he cried a little louder.
It's just that after Ziming listened to the beggar's story, he didn't feel good in his heart, and after a sigh, he didn't come back for a long time, and he was still immersed in that sad atmosphere.
Wang Yue also didn't speak, but looked at Jiang Cang, because the first person the beggar came into contact with was Jiang Cang, among them was Ziming, and he belonged to the latter, so he couldn't make the decision to be a friend without authorization, so as to save himself from treating others and ruining his feelings.
And when Wang Yue looked at Jiang Cang with an inquiring gaze, everyone in the inn was also surprised, feeling that the 'steward' in this team seemed to be not Wang Yue, but another indigenous 'Jiang Cang!' ’
I didn't see it, even the trivial matter of adding people to the team, 'Sword Immortal Wang Yue' had to ask for Jiang Cang's opinion, it seemed that it was not easy to make the decision.
Judging from their survival experience that they have lived for so long, Jiang Cang is eighty percent of the head or a deputy like a military advisor, which is 10% true!
Especially when they were drinking, they also saw Wang Yue take the initiative to toast with Jiang Cang many times, which is also a proof.
'It's better to read in this day and age.' When the doctor saw Jiang Cang's easy-going temperament, he felt that it was this native's cleverness that made Wang Yue listen to him.
'Eat and eat.' The merchant felt that the plan needed to be changed, and felt that if he wanted to tie up with Wang Yue, the first target would be Jiang Cang, and when he got to Jiang Cang, the task would basically be completed.
Of course, this is also their speculation.
Now, they are all listening to all directions, wondering if Wang Yue will also acquiesce when Jiang Cang agrees.
And Jiang Cang thought that there were many 'people' and many rewards, and he didn't want to leave people behind in the early stage, so he casually agreed to the beggar's plea, but he also said in his words: "Since Brother Tai has spoken." Words, there is no way to eat. Then make a deed now, and follow along. Just meals, here. ”
Jiang Cang said, not only for the task, but also because he wants to be qualified to be an 'NPC native', he must have 'justice'. ’
After all, didn't he just say that there was nowhere to eat? Then I have it here.
For the sake of everyone, everyone is a peer, and this 'deed of sale' is collected by themselves, the food is managed, and the life is also taken.
But if he does other things in the future, greedy for yuan energy and yuan things, then this life and death contract is signed, and he doesn't say anything, just do it.
This is reasonable, fair and just.
"Good.." The beggar didn't know what Jiang Cang meant by what he said, but he felt that he was using a small plan, so he successfully blended into Wang Yue's team.
What does this say?
He now felt that the traverser was not only a fool, but even this group of natives wanted to be a fool!
In the future, it is only left to mix slowly and find another opportunity to get some benefits.
"The meaning of the bell is what I mean." Wang Yue saw Jiang Cang let this person follow, but he didn't say a word, only applauded and laughed.
But it's also through this thing.
The Yuan Elite in the inn really knew that this Wang Yue's 'friend' had a great 'right to speak' in the team, and they let the beggar into the team with one sentence.
The Sword Immortal Wang Yue next to him agreed with both hands and didn't ask.
But Jiang Cang didn't care what everyone was thinking, and beckoned a guy later, looked at the beggar and said, "Take this brother to freshen up first and find clean clothes." ”
"Thank you.." The beggar bent down again and again, with excitement in his heart, and followed the man to the backyard.
And also when the beggars are gone.
The speed of drinking porridge was a little slow, because they were afraid that they would finish drinking porridge by then, and they would not be able to leave.
The 'cough cough' young man was also coughing, seemingly as usual, but in fact he was eating slowly, and he slowed down the previous charter again.
When Jiang Cang saw this scene, he also knew what they meant, but he didn't know how to describe these drama spirits.
To tell the truth, Jiang Cang also felt that they had really lost money in the Yuanneng world, so it was better to stay in a parallel world to act, I believe that with their excellent acting skills, they will definitely be able to win a room of personal trophies.
But.
It's good to have this acting skills.
Anyway, I was bored in my daily martial arts practice waiting for the 'elixir', and it was even more boring on the way back.
But there are these people on the side.
I have fun, I can watch the play, and I am still played by seven powerful actors, this lineup is strong enough.
And the director, naturally, is himself.
Because since I want to be an NPC, I will definitely make some moths when the mission goes well, and embarrass them, so that they feel that this task is not ordinary, and my NPC is really real.
It's just that the play they performed was a shadow puppet show with only one life.
Subsequently.
Jiang Cang dropped the charter, didn't have anything to say, and began to arrange his own director's script.
Until the beggar cleaned up, with an ordinary appearance, and then went out in an ordinary robe.
Jiang Cang and the others left the inn, rode horses, and asked the men to lead a horse to the beggar.
The beggar went up, pretending to be strange, and was in a hurry, but fortunately it was a docile horse, and it would be good to pretend for a while.
And when the merchants were trying their horses, they also happened to come out, cleaned up, and laid out the quilt, so that the young man could lie down.
The doctor tucked the corner again and asked him if he was lying comfortably, inkblots.
Anyway, when Jiang Cang and the others left for a few breaths, they also set off.
But along the way, Jiang Cang was thinking about the script, wandering leisurely as before, not fast, no one urging, maybe he could wait for some actors of various identities.
And the speed of the merchants and others is about the same as Jiang Cang, basically following from a distance of one or twenty meters, getting closer and farther, not much worse.
Wang Yue saw it, and didn't say much, because people who run merchants like to be in groups, and it is better to be able to convoy each other, or many people to follow each other, than a convoy to meet mountain bandits.
When he was a young man, he took care of many of these caravans.
Today, a friend is watching from the side.
Wang Yue also wanted to pretend to be more chivalrous, showing that he was righteous and informal.
But as time passed.
Jiang Cang rode his horse out of more than ten miles, but after passing a mountainside forest, he seemed to think of a script, so he deliberately stopped the horse, and suddenly without any warning, pointed to the forest that had just passed a few miles and said: "This day is very good, and the mountains and forests are like ink after the rain." And now we use it to hurry, is there some bad scenery? ”
"What do you mean?" When Wang Yue heard what his friend had to say, he also stopped his horse for a moment, raised his hands and asked with a smile: "Is there an arrangement?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Cang smiled, fell off his horse, and glanced at the merchants and others who followed, "It's such a good day, why don't you go hunting in the forest?" All-you-can-drink? ”
"Hunting?" Wang Yue thought for a while and praised, "Good! ”
When Wang Yue said this, his heart moved, his eyes were wandering, he followed Jiang Cang's point, and finally looked at a forest on the way he came, "Is it feasible here?" ”
"Okay." Jiang Cang spoke, shook the reins, and prepared to turn back again.
And right now.
The merchants and others in the back, when they saw Jiang Cang walking and suddenly stopped, and heard Jiang Cang say 'hunting', and they were about to turn back with their mission goal, they were also suddenly stunned, they really gritted their teeth at this 'native'!
They feel that this natives are really the same as the NPCs in the game, they are all embarrassed by death, allowing themselves and others to run around, increasing the difficulty of the task in disguise.
But what's even more uncomfortable is that there is not even a channel to 'charge money to become good luck', so I can only grit my teeth and persevere.
After all, it's a rare handwriting task.
Jiang Cang is a friend of Sword Immortal Wang Yue, and he can't be offended.
Otherwise, it will be more troublesome in the future.
"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Cang saw that the merchant's convoy had also stopped, and he didn't go forward, so he also asked, because they were blocking his way back.
And the merchant is worthy of being a smart person who has survived the crisis of life and death, and he thought of a countermeasure in an instant: "The villain also wants to follow a few strong men, and his heart will be more at ease.. I'm afraid that there are bandits on the lonely road, and the rest of the goods can't be delivered.. And the little brother in the car is also dangerous... It's human life."
"yes.." The doctor also opened his mouth at this time, looked at the young man who had been lying on his side in the car and coughing, and said, "Just a few strong men went to the mountains and forests to drive the beasts. You can also go there to collect medicine. ”
"Ahem, ahem.." The young man seemed to be moved, and his cough was heavy again, but he was actually afraid that his friend who didn't know how to medicine would pick up some poison, and when the medicine came, would he eat it or not?
He could imagine lying helplessly on the hospital bed, watching his friend boiling poison bitterly.
Especially when the three of them were talking and coughing, their faces were full of worry, they lamented that it rained too much last night, and they lamented that there were many bandits in this troubled world, and they were even more afraid of dying in the hands of their own people.
And after they mentioned the word 'mountain bandits', the twelve civilian guards who were temporarily brought in were also timid in their hearts, feeling that the employer had finally said a word.
"We also want to hunt with a few strong men... Go to Chang'an again.." Two of the guards whispered.
And Jiang Cang heard it, and saw that they had rounded up the charter, so there was nothing to say, so let's hunt and go together.
'Click'
Jiang Cang rode his horse and took the lead with Wang Yue.
But on the frame car, after the young man saw that he was getting closer and closer to the forest, he was half-up, leaned on the frame, and said to the doctor and others who were looking at him: "Ahem.. Thank you for your care. I seem to be feeling better after drinking that bowl of porridge."
