Chapter 12: The Gift.

It was almost noon when Xius returned to the abandoned baby farm, because of the appearance of that Hall, he had been delayed a lot of time on the way, if it wasn't for Pan Sen's help halfway, I was afraid that he might not be able to return to the abandoned baby farm smoothly, no, if Xius didn't comprehend yesterday, it is estimated that he would have met with an accident if he couldn't wait for Pan Sen to help.

The life of the Sampa tribe was very cruel to him, and if he wasn't strong enough, he would have died long ago.

Especially for an abandoned baby like him.

When he came to the foundling grounds, he saw Eddie, Simon, Athena, and Old Man Walker sitting at the gate as if waiting for something.

"Oh, poor little Xius, you're finally back, if you don't come back, old man, my stomach will be hungry, I really hope you get some food this time, or we'll be hungry again." Old Man Walker said.

"Hughes." Athena saw that Theseus was full of joy and ran over and hugged him, looking very dependent.

Walker said: "My dear Athena, why do you always like to hold Hughes, in fact, compared to Hughes, don't I love you, old man?" The last time I got the leg bone broth, I handed the last piece of meat to your bowl, look at your memory, I don't remember my old man after eating, I'm really sad. ”

"Big Brother Hughes." Eddie and Simon also ran over.

Theseus smiled and said, "Look, I brought you something good today." ”

Put a large pile of goods behind him into the ground: "You see, this is your quilt for the winter, I remember that last year you were all frozen blue and purple, but this year will not come, with these quilts we can live a comfortable winter, and this, a big pot of salt, this time we don't have to worry about the life of not eating salt for almost two months, and this, sturdy cloth, those tattered clothes on your body can finally be replaced......"

"Theseus, I want clothes, I want quilts...... Athena exclaimed excitedly.

Simon and Eddie next to him showed eager eyes.

Theseus said: "All of them, including Old Man Walker, this time I have prepared a lot of portions, Old Man Walker, I have prepared a special gift for you, look, what is this?" He pulled out a crockpot from the cargo, and the smell of liquor came out.

Old man Walker snorted and inhaled deeply: "Old man, what did I ask?" The taste of spirits. ”

His crippled legs were now surprisingly agile, and he immediately walked over, snatched the jar from Theseus's hand, opened it, and carefully took a sip.

"It's a great pleasure to be able to drink a sip of a good spirit."

Old Man Walker was intoxicated, but he quickly realized what was going on and immediately sealed the liquor again, and looked at Hughes with a suspicious expression: "Poor Hughes, this large pile of things will cost at least several silver coins, how did you get this large sum of money." ”

"Blackmailed a couple of unlucky guys." Theseus said, then threw a short sword over: "Old man Walker, didn't you say that you have been missing a suitable tool to patch the holes in the abandoned baby farm, try this short sword." ”

"This is a short sword that only a warrior has, Theseus, have you robbed a warrior of the Iron Sun?" After the old man Walker turned on the short sword, he stretched out his fingers and felt the sharpness on it, and said in some surprise.

Hughes said, "Snatched from a thug, he is not a warrior, come, look, what food I have brought you today." He magically took out a large pile of bread, which was slightly deformed, but it did not affect the taste.

"Freshly baked oat bread, remember the last time I ate this when I was a warrior, Theseus, you have made a fortune, you actually bought thirty, oh, I should say that you are a loser, you have the money to buy thirty loaves of bread should buy a bag of flour, old man, my bread making skills have not been left behind." Old man Walker said with a heartache on his face.

Xius smiled: "By the time you make bread, it's already night, and you can't go hungry for this meal, and I also bought the flour you want, three big bags." He placed three more heavy bags of flour in front of Walker.

"Hughes, Hughes, I'm going to eat bread." Athena shook Theseus' arm with a look of greed.

"Goo~!" Simon and Eddie also looked at the fresh bread and screamed as they swallowed.

"Go and eat, you're welcome, until you can't move." Hughes said.

"Long live Hughes." Athena cheered and threw herself excitedly at the delicious bread.

Hughes looked around and said, "What about Owen, where has he been?" ”

"I don't know, Owen disappeared in the morning." Little Eddie puffed out his cheeks and tore at the fluffy bread.

Walker said: "Owen, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone, maybe he's gone to live in other tribes, maybe he's gone out, who knows, he's not too young, we can't always take care of him, he can muster the courage to choose his own path, we should bless him, don't we?" ”

That's it......

Hughes fell silent.

But Old Man Walker was not wrong, Owen chose to leave by himself, he should not worry about him, but should bless him, maybe he will live a better life than he is now after leaving the foundling farm.

"It's a shame that we should see him off, if he's going to go." Hughes said.

"Don't be sad, Owen just went out first, and soon you will go out too, Simon, and so does Add, this is the only way for a child to grow up in the abandoned baby field, you can't interfere, oh, you little ones are too good at eating, quick, give me a bread to the old man, I'm hungry too."

Old Man Walker said, not at all upset by Owen's departure.

"Give." Simon ran over and delivered two or three loaves of bread to Old Man Walker.

Old Man Walker also couldn't wait to bite it, but soon choked and kept beating his chest.

"Take a sip of the liquor bar." Hughes laughed.

Old Man Walker breathed a sigh of relief after a while: "That's all you bought in total, didn't you?" If he was injured or had a high fever, he might be able to save his life if he wiped it with spirits, but the old man had to hide the jar of spirits, and not drink it casually. ”

"This is my gift to you, if I really need it, I'll go get another bottle, don't worry." Hughes said.

"That's better to save it for later." Walker was still reluctant to drink the rare spirit.

"Whatever."

Walker asked as he ate his bread, "How much money do you have left?" ”

"More than two hundred copper coins." Hughes said.

"Give it all to me, I'll go back and store it all with grain, this winter the Stempa tribe is estimated to go out hunting again, and the price of grain will rise at that time, so you must prepare for storage in advance."

Old Man Walker said seriously, and didn't ask where the money in Hughes's hand came from.

Hughes handed Walker, handing the bag of copper coins in his bosom to Walker: "You take care of it, don't forget to save some money to find a woman who can sew clothes to help make a few clothes." ”

"Xius, I'm afraid you don't know yet, old man, I have learned the work of a tailor before, and the old man can handle this little thing." Walker said.

"Weren't you a warrior before?" Hughes said with a strange expression.

Walker said; "Don't you know that the military also teaches life skills? Laundry, cooking, bread making, tailoring, artisans....... As long as you want to learn, there are masters who will teach you, in the past, the old man and I were an all-round warrior, even delivering pregnant women...... Ahem, sorry, this won't, but I'm pretty good at the other old men. ”

"You're blushing." "You blush every time you lie," said Hughes. ”

Old Man Walker defended: "Nonsense, this is the effect of spirits, not lying. ”

"You've only taken one sip of wine, and yesterday you told Griffin that you had a lot of alcohol." Hughes said.

"It's different, you're the best liquor, even a warrior would get drunk." Old Man Walker said.

"Anyway, you're blushing." Hughes said.

"Well, old man, I admit that I blush, but in any case it is not caused by lying, the old man can swear to the sun god." Walker said.

Theseus said: "You have long taken down the banner of the sun god hanging on the abandoned baby field to make panties, and now you still wear it on your body, don't think I don't know, you swear to a pair of panties that make me have no sense of trust at all." ”

"Oh, poor Theseus, your mouth is still so poisonous, old man, I feel that it was a mistake to pick you up in the first place." Walker said with a headache.

"Whew~! Hughes, I'm so full, I'm too hungry to move. ”

Athena lay on the ground with a round belly and gasped.

"I can't eat anymore, I feel like I'm going to die." Little Eddie looked like he was about to die.

Simon's mouth was stuffed with bread and he was still chewing hard.

Xiusi said: "Maybe you should drink water and rest, and the rest of the bread should also be put away as food for tomorrow, don't forget to come to me in the afternoon, I will teach you to cultivate." ”

"I'm a great warrior, old man, and maybe I should teach you." Old Man Walker said.

"No, I'm going to teach."

"Me too, I want Big Brother Xiusi to teach us." Athena and Eddie betrayed Walker together and fell to the side of Theseus.

Simon didn't speak, but he looked at Hughes expectantly.

Walker said; "Old man, I feel very congested, like you are so old for nothing, and you actually look down on a powerful warrior."

"A powerful lame warrior." Hughes added.

"I really want to go and be with the spirits now, don't stop me, poor old man." Walker said, then carrying a large pile of goods on the ground.

"Great lame tailor warrior, don't forget, I also need a dress, well, and panties." Hughes said.

Old man Walker obviously couldn't fight Hughes, and he was defeated again and left.

However, with these materials and a sum of money this winter, I believe that this old man will not be as sad as he was a few years ago, and this winter can be very easy.
