Chapter 5 The 'kind' eldest lady
"Instead of feeling about how to recover the money, let's think about how to settle the wine money first......" Lunas said with a serious face, glancing at the tavern owner behind him, who looked a little unkind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Quiescence......
Deathly embarrassing......
"Lunas, do you have any money on you?" Tazmi turned his head to look at Lunas with a wistful expression.
"If I hadn't been stolen from all my entanglements, how would I have ended up like this?" Lunas stretched out his hand in frustration.
"Why is this happening......" replied to Tazmi's wail in the quiet tavern.
Is it true that Lunas has no money on him? The answer, of course, is no, gold does not appear as a general equivalent in the Temporal Authority at all, but as a more commonly used, extremely expensive task item that is traded, and the amount that Lunas himself has saved is worth a year's tax revenue of the Empire. Even if he uses local gold coins in order not to expose them, just the dangerous species and thieves he kills on the road will probably bring him an extraordinarily rich foreign exchange, right?
But once you expose yourself to being so rich for such a trivial matter, won't all your previous efforts to cover it up be in vain? At this time, it is also a good choice to watch a good show a little, anyway, at most, he will only be a cleaner in the tavern for a while or be kicked out directly by the shopkeeper, Lunas is not afraid of the Imperial Capital Guard, thinking that as soon as he leaves the sight of Tazmi, the 'pig's foot' of fate, he can bribe the members of the guard in the open, and Lunas knows best what kind of goods those guards are......
Tazmi reached out and searched his luggage up and down, and finally found a brown money bag with a pitiful few gold coins in a small and inconspicuous corner. Reluctantly and reluctantly handed over his last net worth in the contemptuous eyes of his boss, Tazmi expressed great grief and indignation.
"I'm going to sleep here today...... "Tazmi found an inconspicuous corner around the corner, ready to spend the night.
"Scumbag rice is worthy of scumbag, if you go to bed so early, you will never get ahead in the imperial capital......" Lunas teased Tazmi slightly, since becoming this half-vampire but not exactly vampire state, Lunas found himself now always like a schoolboy who has nothing to do at night, unusually excited, and then ...... during the day Well, that's another sad story.
"You still have to try to enter the army......" Tazmi muttered to himself as he stared blankly at the night sky above him.
"The army is not as good as you think...... "Lunas closed his eyes, I'm afraid that for everyone who has actually been on the battlefield, war is an indelible memory...... The constant outbreak of artillery fire, the flying bullets, the life on the battlefield will not get any respect, the kind of 'aristocratic' war that people imagine will always exist only in those novels, although Lunas is only a field doctor in the rear hospital, but in the brutal tug-of-war, where can the front line and the rear be so clearly distinguished? There's nowhere to escape, there's no place to be safe, all you can do is survive as best you can. Cruelty, dirty, barbarism, these are the essence of war......
"If you want to join the army and make meritorious contributions, it is better to be a petty official in charge of forage or grain in the imperial capital. That's a lot of security, and you can take a lot of bribes, even faster than you can get by joining the army, which can also have the effect of relieving your village. Lunas calmly suggested, neither demeaning nor admiring such behavior, as if it were a calm statement of reality.
"No, no, no...... Lunas, you're misunderstood. The village, because of the heavy taxes, is constantly decaying, and only by holding real power in the imperial capital can the heavy taxes be exempted, right? And I want to get the problem straight to the root of it......" Tazmi replied firmly.
"Yes...... "Obviously aware of the problem, but he is still trying to change the status quo with his own efforts, which is probably the reason why 'fate' favors him......
"Have you ever been on the battlefield in Lunas?" On the side, Tazmi, who was also a little excited because he came to the imperial capital for the first time, asked Tazmi, who couldn't sleep.
"Hmm......" Lunas just silently admitted.
"What the hell is the battlefield like?" With the curiosity of a young man and his natural sensitivity to war, Tazmi continued.
"A place you never want to go back to......" Lunas said, shrinking into his coat, suggesting that he no longer wanted to answer the questions, and Tazmi was amuseful enough to stop asking.
......
Under the dim and cold street lamplight, a ray of warm sunlight that does not conform to the laws of physics is melodiously sprinkled on his cold shoulders, and when he looks up again, he finds that his head is full of youthful vitality, and his bright blue eyes are as beautiful as sprinkled with star debris. The close-fitting princess dress brings out the young and lovely girl, and the blonde hair looks so pleasing to the eye under the reflection of the light......
Looking at the gorgeous clothes on the girl's body and the luxurious carriage not far away, this must be the young lady of a large family......
But why did the young lady of the big family come to such a remote place?
I must be too cold and hallucinating, right?
After Tazmi rubbed his eyes and realized that the eldest lady was indeed not himself, like the little match girl who caused her dying hallucinations due to hunger and cold, he couldn't help but tremble with his hands.
After all, anyone who lets others see his current embarrassment as a vagrant, who is more unemployed than a vagrant, will react in the same way as Tazmi......
PS: Why is my character always so bad...... Today, I went to the test room to take the ACT with great interest, but there were not enough seats to draw lots, I regretted not to draw, gorgeous, and now I can only take the new SAT that I haven't studied much at all, tragedy...... So, I can only roll around all over the ground now and beg for recommendation votes and local tyrants to give tips for comfort......
